IPhone to iPhone not coming up as iMessages (but only from one person)

I have an iPhone 4S and a contact of mine has a 5.  For some reason all my texts to/from him suddenly stopped coming up as iMessages and now only are text messages.  I get/send iMessages with other contacts.  I turned iMessags off and back on, powered my phone off/on, etc and that didnt work either.

Sorry I don't have the answer, but same thing- my iPhone 4S and my son's iPhone4 all of a sudden stopped sending texts as iMessages- help please!! I can still send iMessages to other iPhones. Thx in advance!

  • Iphone 4 will not allow me to send or respond to one person only

    iphone 4 will not allow me to send or respond to one person only. Can receive texts from them but cannot respond error message 923-0. Saying invalid number of digits msg 2114

    This error looks like a carrier message. Does this person have an iOS device? It appears not, but this looks like an SMS error. I suggest that you contact your carrier to see if they can explain the error.

  • Unable to iMessage everyone apart from one person on iPad

    I am able to send iMessages from my iPad to everyone apart from one other.  They are able to iMessage others and we are able to FaceTime each other. Any hints or tips to resolve this would be be appreciated.

  • How can I disable iMessage but only for one contact ?

    Hi,
    I'd like to send texts to my friend who owns an iPhone, but not on iMessage.
    (That friend owns an iPhone, but can't connect on 3G. So she gets my texts only when she can connect on wi-fi...)

    Your friend would have to disable iMessage. As far as your phone is concerned, since you have connected with her via iMessage, it will always try that.

  • The movies from my Iphone 5 are not coming across on Apple TV. The little spinning beach ball appears like it is thinking.  It use to work but quick working a month ago.

    The movies from my Iphone 5 are not coming across on Apple TV. The little spinning beach ball appears like it is thinking.  It use to work fine but quick working a month ago. I mirror from my phone to the Apple TV.  Still images and everything I do on the phone is mirrored on to the TV except when I want to show a YouTube video or any video and then the screen on the phone and the TV screen go black and the spinning beach ball appears.  The videos open right up on the phone if I do not have mirroring on and going through the Apple TV.  I just downloaded the latest update to the phone it did not fix the problem.  Please help.  Thanks, Elvis G

    Hello Elvis G,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps concerning device issues. You may want to consider a reset, then testing to see if the issue is resolved:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • My photos from my iphone 4s are not coming across in my ipad or my computer.  I have everything with icloud and photos turned on

    My photos from my new iphone 4s are not coming across on my ipad or my computer.  I have all devises synced together, icloud on photos are turned on.  Not sure what else to do?

    Welcome to the Apple Community
        •    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
        •    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
        •    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.
    Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)

  • I have missing songs that i purchased on my old iphone. they are not in my purchased folder. but in itunes store when i look the song up, it has the purchased logo next to it.... but no way to download it

    i have missing songs that i purchased on my old iphone. they are not in my purchased folder. but in itunes store when i look the song up, it has the purchased logo next to it.... but no way to download it

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

  • Iphone 4 is not recognized by itunes and is only on emergency mode, keeps telling me to connect to itunes but when I connect iphone to computer it does not recognize it

    iphone 4 is not recognized by itunes and is only on emergency mode, keeps telling me to connect to itunes but when I connect iphone to computer it does not recognize it

    Did you try recovery mode?  Hold down the home button as you connect it to iTunes.  iTunes should pop up a window that says "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode" and give you the option to restore.

  • My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!

    My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!
    1. I tried connecting it to itunes for a system reset and it didnt work.
    2. The phone wont even turn on!!!

    If the phone wont turn on it sounds like it needs to be charged.  Plug it into a charger and wait about 15 minutes and try turning it on while still charging. Have you tried holding in your home button with the on/off button held in?  Hold them both together until the apple logo comes up and then release them.  The screen will blink off an on while it is resetting. I still think this is a battery issue. Good luck~

  • HT1695 IPhone 4 could not capture remote Wi-Fi but can capture the network from close range to Ataatjos meter

    IPhone 4 could not capture remote Wi-Fi but can capture the network from close range to Ataatjos meter

    I tried the process and was happy to note that there was some process that I managed to start because the process did start ...
    However to my disappointment,  landed back at the same status which says
    We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.
    Please try again later, or contact customer care
    I was using a GEVEY sim unlock with iOS 4.1 since (almost) last 2 yrs now in India on Vodafone. But as Apple designed it, there were several apps including Whatsapp, Facebook, Gmail and LinkedIn that stopped functioning due to the iOS updates and the subsequent (I guess 'mandatory' App updates). Finally yesterday I thought of updating to the iOS 6. As soon as I did that, I have been left with no choice but to see the above message.
    The process by jhidrowoh starts corectly but iTunes doesnt give you the option of restore only ... it is forcefully clubbed with update and the button that is displayed in the dialog box that appears on pressing 'Restore' in teh recovery mode, shows 'Restore and Update' and as soon as the iPhone is restored, it automatically updates the iOS as well to iOS 6 and hence leaves you hanging in the stale situation.
    Guys ... Need the data desperately ... Can anybody please help???

  • The greeting button on my iPhone 4S is not working it is there but i can't press it why is that?

    The greeting button on my iPhone 4S is not working it is there but it is grayed out I am trying to change my greeting from personal to the default one how to I fix this?

    I have a similar issue I could use help with.  I just upgraded to a iPhone 4S and received my new phone but there is no Greeting buttong at all.  When I go to the phone icon, then the voicemail icon the voicemail icon automatially dials an A.T.& T voicemail number  - there is no Greetings on the top lefthand corner.  My cousin has the same phone and she has Greetings typed at the top of her voicemail page and she can click on it and then there is a place to leave a voice mail message.  The upshot is, I have no outgoing message and  nothing for people to hear and no way for people to leave messages.  Any suggestions?

  • Regarding iMessage, when i want to send text to a person in my contacts app, i've been getting a message saying the number has not been registered with iMessage.  How can one fix this problem?

    It takes two to tango, maybe it's your recipient that has weak Internet/Cellular connections.

  • IPhone and MacBook Pro but only have one Apple account

    Brand new to the MacBook Pro world.  First Apple laptop (or Apple computer at all for that matter) so of course I have some questions. I think I am correct in saying that basically each Apple device has to be separate and apart from another even if they reside in the same household.  Meaning that each one has to be logged on to a separate and unique Apple account and email address for things like Facetime and iMessage to work properly. So, with that said......If I personally own the iPhone and MacBook Pro but only have one Apple account how can I make them both work separately and independent of each other??? The problem I've noticed is that Facetime and iMessage do not work and conflict with each of the two devices.

    Hi BigDisMe,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Congratulations, and welcome to the Mac World. Actually, you can use an Apple ID, together with iCloud to make your devices work together. Both devices can be connected to the same Apple ID, and use Facetime, Messages, and email together.
    As long as both of your devices are updated to the latest OS, OS X 10.9 Mavericks for your MacBook and iOS 7.0.4 for your iPhone, you can:
    On Mac:
         1. Open System Preferences-iCloud
         2. There should be a button somewhere that says, "Add Account".
         3. Use your Apple ID to log in.
         4. Make sure to enable your Messages, Facetime, and email accounts.
         5. There is no Step 5.
    On iPhone:
         1. Open Settings-iCloud.
         2. There should be a button somewhere that says, "Add Account".
         3. Use your Apple ID to log in.
         4. Make sure to enable your Messages, Facetime, and email accounts.
         5. There is no Step 5.
    Good Luck,
