Is it possible to imessage someone in China?

My friend is in China and has an Iphone 4. I have an Iphone 4s. For some reason iMessage doesn't seem to work when she isn't connected to wifi. Is iMessage available there while using regular cellular data service?

If you can send her a text message (not an iMessage), then ask her what she sees in the top left of her screen.

  • Basically my phone was in my bag an someone sent my mum an iMessage saying 'can't talk now... I'll ring later' off my iMessage. How is that possible? Is someone hackin my iPhone 4s? I change my Apple ID password but I'm terrified

    Basically my phone was in my bag an someone sent my mum an iMessage saying 'can't talk now... I'll ring later' off my iMessage. How is that possible? Is someone hackin my iPhone 4s? I change my Apple ID password but I'm terrified because someone is sending my mum messages off my account!

    Nothing to worry about. If you open Settings and scroll down and tap Phone, you will see "Respond with Text" and one of the standard replies on mine is "Can't talk right now ... I'll call you later." I would guess that a button got hit while in your bag.

  • HT4203 I have turned off the Data use on the I-phone 4s but am told by AT&T that data is still being used for applications.  How is this possible. Can someone help me understand this.  Thanks.

    I assume you are including the STIX font as part of your epub files?     
    Perhaps the folks who do this blog might be able to help -- they have done some work with font embedding:

  • Is there any kind of charge to iMessage someone in another country?

    Is there any kind of charge to iMessage someone in another country?

    Nope, other that what ever charges you already pay for WiFi or 3G data service.

  • HT4623 Trying to iMessage someone from Australia to UK will not send message to iPhone number why as my contacts has the country of origin for each contact??

    Why can't I iMessage someone in the UK from Australia using their iPhone number! my contacts has country of origin but it won't deliver the message?

    Nops, no Jailbreak. And I can't even really find people with tha same issue over the web. I'm starting to think that a fresh install might be the only way to solve this. Which ***** (and at the same time might be related to the problem), since I've been restoring my iPhone data since my 3GS. I'll keep pooking for a solution to avoid a fresh install, though. Not ready to lose my entire sms/imessage history and my games progress over this. Heh

  • Is it possible to download folios in China?

    My company is using the trial version of DPS and one of my coworkers is trying to download an updated folio while he is in China.  He says that the update is not showing up in the Content Viewer.  Is it possible to download a folio overseas?  Is there something special I need to know?
    Thanks,
    Claire

    The solution when available will be limited to customers who can present to Adobe a General Administration of Press and Publication (GAPP). GAPP licenses are not provided to foreign owned corporations. They are only provided to joint ventures or Chinese entities.
    Once this solution is made available to qualifying DPS publishers, it will be communicated broadly through our sales, marketing and technical channels of communication.
    If you cannot get a Gapp Licence, then Single Edition/Built in Single Issue is the way to go for you.

  • Share folio with someone in China

    Hello,
    I've made a folio in Belgium, which I am now trying to share with some one in China, via the Adobe Content Viewer.
    When they log in in the Content Viewer, they get no download invitation, nothing at all.
    I've allready tried loggin in at my end (on 2 different iPads), with his (chinese) log-in and password, and it works fine then. I do get the invitation right away.
    Has any of you heard of Chinese blocking (censorship) of the Content viewer, like with Facebook or twitter?
    Is there a work-around, or  is there something else that can go wrong?
    Kind regards
    Vanessa

    We had the same problem and asked to Adobe. See Adobe's answer below:
    The delivery of folio files into China requires that the DPS Apps be compiled differently to allow for folio files to be delivered from a CDN service provided by a company called ChinaCache instead of Akamai who handles our file delivery rest of world. We believe that Adobe's use of ChinaCache coupled with the restrictions I detailed below will allow Adobe to successfully serve content into mainland China.  The restrictions that I am about to outline are intended to keep the service running and available adhering to Chinese law and to reflect the significantly higher cost to Adobe that ChinaCache incurs compared to Akamai.  The restrictions for DPS delivery into China are:
    Any company delivering into China needs to both sign a DPS agreement and the addendum (attached) which details these restrictions
    We limit file sizes delivered into China at 250MB.  This restriction is directly related to cost via ChinaCache
    For every publication delivered into China (aka Vogue, Allure, Cosmo etc.), the customer must present to Adobe a General Administration of Press and Publication ("GAPP").  (GAPP licenses are not provided to foreign owned corporations.  They are only provided to joint ventures or Chinese entities.)  Beyond detailing this restriction, Adobe should not be in any way providing legal guidance to customers.
    Agree that Adobe is not liable or responsible for interruptions/delays in service etc.

  • HT5622 Why is it that everytime I imessage someone my email comes up instead of my phone number?

    I have try putting my phone number as apple ID but i cant or dont know how i dont want my email to come up i want my phone number to show up when ever i imessage someone

    The cell phone number is registered along with the Apple ID email address when activating iMessage on an iPhone.
    Settings > Messages > Send and Receive > Start New Conversations From > select your phone number.

  • If i iMessage someone and then block their number before they 'read' it, when i unblock them will it tell me what time/date they read the message?

    I imessaged a person and it said delivered, i then blocked the number and a couple of weeks later when i had unblocked the number, the message still had 'delivered' and no read receipt. This person always has read receipt. Did this happen because i blocked them? or why?

    problem, i think, for now... resolved.
    i deleted the preference file for bluetooth, restarted, first attempt didnt work, though it did show up a keyboard with a long number as its name, used auto generated passkey here, didnt work. 2nd attempt, i then saw the name AV's keyboard, decided to use my own passkey '1234', worked!
    bluetooth is strange, there must 5 methods for connecting these **** keyboards!

  • Is it possible to iMessage one recipient and for the rest of my contacts to recieve normal texts?

    I have been contacting a friend abroad via iMessage and that's been no problem however when iMessage is on, other contacts of mine send me message by iMessage. Is there any way to stop the rest of my contacts iMessaging me and keep my friend abroad iMessage me?

    If you are sending to multiple people, and not all of them have iOS devices and iMessage accounts, then the message is sent to all as SMS text (assuming you have that option enabled in your messaging settings).  Basically, no, you cannot split the choice of sending for a given message - the recipeint list will dictate that and if even one recipient does not have iMessaging active, then it will go as SMS text (or not go at all, if you have disable the option to send as SMS text).
    There is no way to send a single message to multiple people and have some of them receive it via Apple's iMessage service and some receive it via your carriers SMS texting service.  It is all or none as far as that goes.

  • Blank Text Messages from other iPhone users. Possibly when iMessage is on.

    I have had this problem a couple different times. I know for a fact that this has only happened to me when other iPhone users send me a text message. I do have iMessage on (not currently because I am thinking this could be the problem) and it seems as if I turn it on for a couple of seconds their message comes through. Can anyone help me out? Thank you!

    What I learned from Apple Support, who is just as perplexed as I am, is that when I deactivated this phone, it actually didn't deactivate in their system right away.  It took several DAYS for it to appear to deactivate in their system.  I think it was a Monday that I deactivated it and it showed to Apple that I deactivated it on following Friday.  I was then told that it could actually take more time (24 hours) for Apple users to get the "undeliverable" message on their iPhones. 
    We still don't know if this has worked (Saturday) because still no iPhone text messages.  I will keep you posted.

  • Unable to iMessage someone

    In the past I tried to iMessage my sister using her email address, but this failed as she hadn't actually set up that address for iMessages on her iPhone. In fact, she still hasn't activated iMessage on her iPhone, but she has recently bought an iPad mini and that address is set up for iMessages (I checked that for myself in her device settings). Weird thing is, when I try to reach her on that address using either my iPod touch or my Mac, it says that address isn't registered for iMessages. What could be going wrong?

    Turn iMessage off and on again on both devices. If that doesn't work make sure you are setup for iMessage.

  • Is it just me, or is everybody being "probed" by someone in China?

    My router security log shows "blocked remote administration" from an ip that is apparently in China.  Is that something to be worried about?
    Needless to say, I do have remote administration disabled in the router's settings, I think that's the default, actually.

    nope, nothing to worry about. Scans and remote attempts to access routers is common. China and the old Soviet countries are the most common sources of these scans. Just make sure that the password for your router is a custom password. Not left at the default setting.
