IPhone Won't Call One Number

Help - my IPhone won't call my Dad's phone number.  It starts to call and then just ends the call.  Happens every time and has been like that for two months. His number works fine from any other phone (our house phone, my husbands IPhone).  I deleted the contact entirely from my phone and put in the number without any additional information and the same result. Still won't call.  He is my emergency contact, so I am concerned that I can't call him from my cell phone at all.  How do I fix this?

I actually have the exact same problem.  It´s my wifes phone, I checked that there is no block on either side. I have an iPhone 4s IOS 7, she has an Android phone.
one minute we can call and text eachother, then it suddenly stopped. Call tries to go out, but ends right away with no message.
I tried to put the sims in an old phone, and there was no difference with her sim, but when I took my sim and changed phone it all worked again. As soon as I put the sim back in my iphone it stopped working... Grrr.
I reset network settings, I rebooted the phone, checked all blocks over and over again but still no luck.

  • I can't text or call one number, but she can text and call me. Help?

    I have an iPhone 5C and my mom does as well. Her number isn't blocked, I checked, but I can't call her (it just rings for a second and then says call ended) and my texts to her don't go through, but I receive her calls and messages just fine. I kind of need to be able to call my mom haha. Any ideas what's going on? Thanks.

    It sounds as if the problem may be on her end. Ask your mom if she has your number blocked. Also, have her check to see if she has Do Not Disturb engaged.

  • IPhone won't call, error message in itunes

    So I have an iPhone 3g, all updated and everything. My itunes says it can not read or write on the disk, also my iphone will not make or receive calls. It says I have no service when I should; I tried everything the troubleshooting website told me and to no avail. Sometimes it is showing bars when I try to call but it just ends up failing. My phone just now alerted me it was in recovery mode, I don't know whats going on.
    It's really starting to **** me off.

    I kind of have it working, though it is slow and I can't upload music

  • Can callers leave call-back number/ send page from iPhone voicemail?

    I have to use a medical answering service that sends patient's phone numbers for me to call. With my old Cingular/ATT voicemail (which generally sucked), a caller could press "1" during the greeting and enter a phone number that was sent as a text message to my phone. I then just pressed "call" to automatically dial the number.
    Does my new iPhone's voicemail system offer this? Otherwise the answering service will have to leave a voicemail, I'll listen to it on my iPhone and then call the number. My memory is short and often don't have anything to write on, so I know I'll screw up some numbers...
    I guess I could have them send a text message? But they're calling from land lines, so that might not work? If they could send a text message, is there a way to have the iphone dial the number in a text message?
    Thanks

  • I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. Help please

    I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. I can call the same numbers manually so it's not my network. Any help would be appreciated.

    This sounds like an international issue? Although I can not see why? I brought my phone in Australia and operating it in Indonesia, I have the same issues.... Otherwise Siri works fine, even texting (SMS) to local numbers siri works well, but dialing local number it just wont work...! I will try using my Australian SIM card and see if that is the reason.. I tried changing the number in the contacts and took out the international prefix, I turned the international assist on and off still nothing.. How frustrating. I called apple, the technican had know idea and we to his supervisor, had to wait fro 40 miuntes and then I hung up..
    PLEASE HELP..!

  • On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail screen" how do I make it call the number instead?

    On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail" screen with icloud, Microsoft exchange, Gmail, Yahoo, Aol & Windows Live Hotmail listed beneath. How do I make it call the number instead?

    Never heard of that.  I suspect it thinks that's an email address and you're seeing that screen b/c you don't have an email account setup on your iPhone.
    Assuming the number is valid, try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • IPhone won't activate in Canada and I have no way to call customer service.

    I broke and old iPhone and used insurance to get a new one delivered to my new address in Canada though the rest of my family is in Indiana. The phone will not activate by plugging it in as the directions say. I have tried dialing *611 but that leads to a Canadian company that can't help me and gave me a number for Verizon. The problem is I cannot call that number because my phone is not activated so really I am unable to call anyone. Unfortunately there are no Verizon stores in Montreal or anywhere I can reach. What should I do in this situation?
    Thanks!

        Cmj, that is great that your phone was replaced promptly! In order to activate the phone it needs to be in the U.S. for activation on our network. Once the phone has been activated in the states, then phone can be used as normal internationally.^SP

  • IPhone 5: when I try to call one of my contacts, it tries to send an email instead

    Just got an iPhone 5; when I try to call one of my contacts, the phone defaults to sending an email to the number instead. Is there a default I need to turn off?

    go to a contact> edit the contacts> erase the number that your trying to call and see if in the box it says email

    For one thing, true call blocking (ie. where the call NEVER actually connects through to your number) can only be done by the service provider at their switches.
    The best a device can do is allow the call to connect, and then use the caller ID information to compare that to a list of allowed and a list of disallowed caller IDs.  That is a feature known as blacklisting, but it is not the same as actually blocking a call completely.
    So as suggested, contact your carrier and ask what they can do for you.

  • My iphone 5 will not text one number

    Have seen previous threads on this issue but none have resolved this matter for me.
    There is one number that I cannot text, the other p contact a Samsung GT-S3350(Tesco) mine is on Vodafone.  I can receive texts and calls and can call the number, but texts fail to send and are all marked as Not Delivered.
    I have turned both phones on and off, turned on/off iMessage, 3G, data roaming and have reset network settings. I have also deleted the contact from my phone and the other phone.
    My wife has an iphone 5 and doesnt have any problems texting the number.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    I did solve the problem. I assumed because the message bubble was green that my friend had another type of phone. I was completely wrong! After I just made sure iMessage was on and restarted my phone it works just fine! So I guess iMessage was the problem ☺️

  • My iPhone won't redial calls on the missed call list, why?

    My iPhone won't redial missed phone calls from the missed call list, why?

    Typically the way the sync you're trying to achieve is performed is to do the following on both your iPhone and iPad (assuming they have the same Apple ID):
    Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and turn on "Books".
    From that time on, books purchased on one device (then or later) will appear on the other.

  • I lost my iPhone. I took my wife's old iPhone and had my phone number changed to it but my iTunes only recognizes it as her phone and won't let me sync my account

    I lost my iPhone. I took my wife's old iPhone and had my phone number changed to it but my iTunes only recognizes it as her phone and won't let me sync my account. Help?

    Do you mean when you say its locked to another carrier other then the one im using, that maybe my insurance sent me an iphone thats for a different network for example orange and not mine which is o2?
