Macbook will not send SMS to some contacts

I have an iPhone 6 and have synced it with my iPad Mini and my Macbook Pro 2012. I have no troubles with SMS or iMessage on my iPad or my phone but, for some reason, my macbook will not send messages to a select few SMS contacts.

I realize my Macbook cannot send any SMS on its own nor can the iPad. That should be common sense for everyone by now. I have that feature but it is on and off for one specific contact and I just can't figure out how to fix it. could it be on their end?

IPhone 6 not sending messages to some contacts?

Iphone 6 will not send text messages to some of my contacts. It will say ENABLE iMESSAGE TO SEND THIS MESSAGE... But iMessage IS enabled and I'm trying to text someone who doesn't have an iPhone anyway. SMS MMS is on. I just updated the software in case that was the issue, but that didn't help.
help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey there MeenaVee,
If you are still unable to send to some of your contacts, use these troubleshooting steps from the following article to help get that resolved:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.

Iphone 5 not sending sms to 1 contact

bought the iphone 5 last month and i am on EE. about 2 weeks ago my phone stopped sending sms to one contact. I receive theirs but they never get mine. ive reset phone back to factory settings, reset network settings, deleted and readded contact and still nothing. EE claim its common problem with iphone 5 on this ios setting but have no info on how to fix it. any help is greatly appreciated.

It says they are sent from my end, no exclamation marks at all. The other person has got a nokia (i think, looks like an imitation of the blackberry) and is on tesco mobile. i have gone through their phone and theyve not blocked me, i can still make calls to them fine. As far as i am aware, this is the only contact they dont send to. I have looked online and have seen some iphone users claiming it is a glitch with the iOS setting??

Iphone will not send sms, but there is no error message

Hi!
I sent a sms to a friend of mine two days ago, but I got no response.
I contacted NetCom, but the message had not gone out to their net. It had never "left" the phone.
There is no error message on the phone.
Does anyone know what I need to do to get this message sent?

I don't know what SMS provision means..
There is no exclamation mark next to the message, so it seems that the phone thinks it has sent the message. But it has not arrived NetCom's mobile network to be sent to receiver... I don't understand why.

My emails on my mac and macbook will not send but the connection doctor confirms connection to the server. Any ideas??? Thank you

I am unable to send emails on my imac and macbook. They go straight to my outbox. The connection doctor comes up with green lights. Any ideas? Hopeing someone out there can help me - thank you.

EA68, who is your broadband provider, if it is Sky then they have recently merged with Yahoo, and there have been similar problems with people who use Mail to access their emails.
If this is the case you will need to remove your SKY account from Mail and then set it up again.
Make sure you clear your inbox, and back up any important emails you have.
IN MAIL go to prefrences and accounts. Highlight SKY account and select the MINUS or delete sign.
Now select the PLUS or add button and type in your sky email address, and then your sky password. Follow on screen instructions, and your emails should then work.
Hope this solves your problem.

One contact who has an iPhone but messaging will not send as iMessage

I have one contact, who has an iPhone, but messaging will not send as iMessage, only text. All my other contacts with iPhones, the messages go as iMessages - even messages going to people who are not in my contacts. What is the fix?

But if that person did not set up an iMessage account on their iPhone, then they cannot receive any iMessages at all, only SMS text messages.
Both the sender and the recipient must have an iOS device with an active iMessage account.
There is nothing you can do about it, other than ask them to set up iMessage on their device (which if they don't want to, is their choice).

My iPhone will not send an iMessage. It sends everything as SMS. I have ensured that my Apple ID is signed in and that my phone number is enabled for use in both FaceTime and iMessage

I had the same problem. I went in and added my email address to iMessage and deleted the text to my friends that have iPhones and sent another to test it and it worked. Only thing is now my non iPhone friends don't receive my pic text. I had to turn off iMessage for it to work. Apple needs to fix this ASAP!

Re: Macbook Pro 10.6.8 RAM Upgarde to 8 GB
The amount of RAM is not dependant on the operating system. It is all about the model of you Mac.
10.6.8 is the version of OS X that is installed on your system. It has no real baring on the amount of RAM that CAN be installed.
Personally I have never had good luck with Corsair RAM. I have always had good luck with Crucial and Kingston.

I can't send texts to some contacts in my iphone 4s. This is a recent problem, as previously all texts would send. The red exclamation mark appears and 'not 'delivered' shows on screen.

First time I've used this discussion forum, so may be posting problem twice! I can't send texts to some contacts in my iphone 4s. This is a recent problem, as previously I could send texts whenever I wanted. The exclamation mark and "not delivered' shows on screen when I ry and text certain people. I know for a fact that my number is not blocked by the receipients?

I've just realised, further to my earlier question - that the people I am trying to text do not have Iphones? Could this make a difference? (Although I have text them in the past)
