Iphone4 won't text to wife's iphone4 only via email

My wife and I both got 4's. Her's was an upgrade, mine is new. For some reason she can text me via messages but when I text her it doesn't work but shows it sent. If I send a text via email it works.
Thoughts?

Another thing, I just went to settings and then messages...our set up is different. She has iMessage-on then under SMS/MMS-MMS Messaging-on Group Messaging-On, Show Subject, off, Character Count-off
Mine is IMessage-on
Send receipts-off
Send as SMS-off
Receive at-2 addresses
Then it is the same as my wifes

  • Wife Receives MSM Messages via Email

    I'm sure there's a setting somewhere that needs to be changed, but I can't find it.
    Sometimes when I send my wife a text message, she receives it on her phone. Other times, she does not receive the message on her phone, but instead receives an email with the text message includes.
    We both have 3Gs, and this does not happen with my phone.
    Thanks.

    I noticed just yesterday that my wife's texts to me were coming to my email and not MMS app. the problem was when she selected me from the "to" box, she selected my email by accident. There is no way to see this once you hit send cuz it only shows the name. Try making a new conversation and be sure to check that you have selected the mobile # and not the email address. This might not be your problem but it ended up being mine.

    Do you have a cellular plan with data and SMS activated?

  • I got my iphone4 updated via wifi and its shows downloaded and when i install it, it shows verifying software and then says error occured while installing ???

    hi, there, i got my iphone4 updated via wifi n its downloaded, its shows when i check the software update n when i install it, it shows verifying the software n after a couple of seconds comes back with "error while installing ios6" failed so many attempts and even tried to reset the phone, but no use, then i tried latest updated itunes too, can u believe it, it took ages to download n when it was 880mb of the 899mb file, error occured , so many failed attempts, can some one tell me what to do ? are there any issues with iphone4 updates? m scared to update it now, but really wanna get it on my phone.

    I have experienced a similar error with the iPhone 4S.  The new version of iTunes will not let me restore the phone, it must be updated and nothing appears to be happening.  Suffice it to say I am not amused.  Apple needs to work this out - I had trouble updating to 8.0.2 as well.

    my iphone just stopped connecting to my wifi and i have tried all the recommended troubleshooting with no success. Also when i send a text , it shows it coming from my email address instead of my cell #.  i dont receive any text going to my cell #. help

    If i understand what you are saying then you are seeing the WiFi indicator after connecting but Apps are saying that they are not connected to the internet?
    Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be to restart your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • No text with wifi

    my phone does not send text with wifi when no verizon signal

    I'm assuming you're referring to picture texts?  If so, they won't send over wi-fi, they require a data (network) connection to send/receive (but they count against your text package, not your data plan).

    i can't send photos from camera roll iphone4 to a email address. It just stopped sending photos.

    iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.
    It's only difficult if you get all emotional over tiny things and don't stop to look for answers first. I find Macs very simple to use.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • My macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

    my macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

    This can be caused by a number of issues.
    Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
    Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
    Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
    Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
    Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.

  • Printer won't connect to wifi

    Hello
    I've recently bought Samsung m2020/2020w  wireless printer, but I cannot seem to connect it to wifi. When trying to connect via WPS, then wireless setup light keeps flasing for 2 minutes but won't connect. Also tried to connect the printer to wifi through my PC via cable, but that gives me "general error". Sent my printer for warranty repair, but it came back as OK (they managed to connect it to their wireless networks). I've switched off my windows firewall, tried firmware update on the printer and connecting it to the router using laptop. Wifi works okay with other wireless devices such as smartphones and laptops.
    Im using Cisco epc3825 router.

    Hello,
    what band the printer is using (2.4 or 5 GHz)?
    What is the security on the wireless network that you use?
    have you tried to connect the printer withour WPS?
    because it gives you a general error in wired side, I think your problem is bigger than wireless-only issue.
    I think it is better to move your post to the small business->wireless forms that is responsible for your device type.

  • My ipod touch won't connect to wifi at home and it use to, it keeps saying my password is wrong

    My ipod touch won't connect to wifi at home, it use to work just fine, now it keeps telling me my password is wrong, but it can't be wrong because it is the same one I have always used. I also have an IPad2 that belongs to my daughter and it connects with our wifi at home with no problem.  But, why is my wifi telling me that my password is wrong.  I have tried everything, we have changed the pass word and that did not work.  We have have taken security off of our wifi and my ipod touch give me another message, but it won't connect to my wifi at home.  Please help... b/c the greatest thing for me is to be able to connect to wifi at home.
    thanks

    I have even shut down my ipod touch to see if it fixes the lack of wifi connection at home but it keeps telling me my password is wrong.  I can connect everywhere else, but not at home.  Pls help my.. I need to connect at home.  Does it matter if we have othere decives like ipads connected to the same wifi.  Because we have an ipad2 and my ipod and up until 1 week ago, we had very little issues keeping both of our devices connected at home.  Eitherway the ipad2 is still working just fine on our home wifi, but my ipod touch keeps refuseing to accept the password.
    Pls help, i am very frustrated and I have tried everything.

  • My MacBook Pro shut down unexpectedly and won't connect to wifi now.

    My MacBook Pro shut down unexpectedly and won't connect to wifi now. All other devices in my house are connecting to the wifi just fine. The laptop just refuses to connect. Any ideas on how to fix this/what it might mean?

    Try a SMC reset:
