My iMessage has stopped working, it only says Text Message now when I try to message iPhone users

I got an iMessage in this morning and I tried to reply to it, which didn't go through and since then all of my contacts only get Text Messages. It doesn't say "iMessage" in the typing field anymore, it says Text Message. This is urking me and I don't know what to do.
Anyone have a solution?

Hi Friend,
First check your Internet connection.
Turn off Show Subject in Settings>>Message
Reset the Network Setting, which makes your phone to forget every networks and passwords that you connected your phone to.
to reset the Network Settings just go to Settings - General - Reset (at the bottom) - Reset Network Settings.
I remember when I reset the Network Settings, i turned off iMessages. I connected to my home Wi-Fi and surfed the web for a little while. Sent some regular SMS messages, and about 10min later, I turned on iMessages again and sent a text to a friend with an iPhone and it started working as iMessage! Baloons finally became blue.
Hope it helps

Hi pgarard1,
If you are having issues with launching iTunes after an update, you may want to take a look at the troubleshooting in the following article:

Game Center has stopped working on my iPod touch (5th gen) when I try to go into the Game Center, it just stays blank. It never signs in when I'm playing games, and many apps require that I'm able to sign in. How do I fix it?

Anyone know how to fix it?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Game Center and sign out and sign back in
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

New iPad tethered to iPhone 4 both on iOS 6, iMessage has stopped working.

Since updating to iOS 6 on both devices, iMessage has stopped working on the iPad when tethered.
It still works on the home wifi, but the progress bar goes to about 95% done before a send failure message comes up.
I haven't found any other apps not working over the tethered 3G network
iMessage is turned on and works elsewhere.

I don't have a phone plan, so I cannot text without wifi. I have been using iMessage to text my friends, until it stopped working. I can text my sisters email, but not my boyfriends iPhone. The send button will not turn blue. Help? Please?

There is a problem with iMessage with what Apple says is a small number of iPhones and they are working on a fix. In the meantime try this:
1. Settings > Messages > iMessage = Off
2. Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime = Off
3. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
4. Wait for the iPhone to Reboot
5. Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime = On
6. Settings > Messages > iMessage = On
You may have to repeat the steps a couple of times.

I already tried that but it doesn't work. Appears a warning saying: "See the developer to make sure that iPhoto works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install all available updates in the application and OS X."

My track pad stopped working with a single finger/double click when I try to open emails, and when I try to open apps on desk top. If I use two fingers, and then click open, I can open them. Thank You for your help.

Greetings ascnephew8,
It seems your trackpad isn't working as you expect it to. Have you reviewed the trackpad settings in System Preferences? The following article provides trackpad setting details which may help:

I have downloaded itunes numerous times with no success. When I click the icon it says that "itunes has stopped working" and then says that "itunes was not installed properly. It provides an error message code, but it overlayed by another message.

I downloaded itunes. It initially indicated that the download was successful, however, when I click the itunes icon, it says "ituns was not installed properly". It then gives me the message "itunes has stopped working"

Not completely sure. But if you think it is an iTunes issue...... follow through this: Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
ALSO, if you feel like all your music will be gone as well follow through these 2:
> Downloading past purchases from App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
> How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
IF YOU THINK ITS A COMPUTER ISSUE, RESTART YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE DOING ALL THIS.

I am trying to open my itunes and it says itunes has stopped working, problem event says APPCRASH???

ITUNES OPENS AND THEN ERROR MESSAGE COMES UP SAYING ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING AND THE PREBLEM EVENT NAME SAYS APPCRASH WITH A LOAD OF OTHR INFO
UPDATED QUICKTIME BUT ITS STILL THE SAME, CANT UPGRADE ANY NEW VERSIONS AS IT WONT LET ME GET THAT FAR
ANY ADVICE??

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

after i updated my mozilla wont start up and just says it has stopped working and windows will alert me when a solution has been found.

Does the issue still occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
