My iMessage is turned on but it is not working. Any suggestions?

I have never encountered this problem before but my iMessage is turned on but it just sends as regular texts. I have tried just about everything, from resetting my network settings to turning off and on the iMessage and even turn off and on my phone and also resetting it.

My 4S stopped working earlier today as well. I've reset network settings, performed a hard reboot, and all of the other usual troubleshooting steps. A quick check of Twitter shows that a lot of people are having this issue, yet the Apple System Status (http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/) shows everything as Green right now. I'm guessing that the status page is a farce, unless you want to believe a bunch of people all of a sudden just happened to do something to mess up their phones.

    Well the blinking light shows it's charging, however just to make sure.
    Reset the SMC, then connect the machine to a power source that doesn't have a lot of other power items on the same lines (in the walls) in the same room and see how it is in the morning.
    For instance use a powerline in another spare room that isn't being used as much.

  • Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help.

    Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help. BTW the same 'Save As' dialog in other applications still allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory.

    cor-el,
    I kept forgetting and procrastinating about following your instructions, since I have internet access only for limited amounts of time and usually I am busy with important tasks when I am.
    Out of the blue, the problem corrected itself (the Save As box started to open full screen, then shrunk down to a normal size and the edges can now be dragged to a custom size).
    Even the copy and paste problem in the filenaming area seems to have been less troublesome lately even though there have been no updates to Firefox in a few weeks.
    Even though I marked the solution as not helpful, the problem has in fact been resolved. I will save the solution instructions in case the issue returns.

    Yes indeed ddanielsun is encountering  the same problem that led me to initiate this thread ... If you try to install any of the available 10.9.x from 10.6.8 the installer exits with an error "10.9 required for this update" ... seems strange that 10.9 is so very hard to find ! ! !
    jeff
    Clearly you can not update 10.9 if you do not have 10.9
    It is very easy to find, it is in the App Store as the picture I posted earlier displays. Follow the same instructions. If you can't then use THIS LINK which will take you there.
    The current version of 10.9 is 10.9.5 and that is what you will get.

    So you are not using Photo Stream? If you are, then you can turn on Photo Stream on iCloud on your Mac, and then go to iPhoto or Aperture and the Photo Stream will show under "Web" in the sidebar.
    You can also set up your iPhoto or Aperture preferences to automatically import your Photo Stream, so any photos you take with your iPhone camera will upload and import automatically and will show under events, broken into monthly groupings.
    Photo Stream does not use any of your iCloud storage.
    Here are the Preference Screens I'm referring to:
    iPhoto:
    Aperture:
    One other thing concerning your Touch Screen. Have you tried resetting your device (nothing will be lost) to see if that will get your Touch Screen working again: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays see if your Touch Screen is working.
    Best of luck,

  • My ipod touch is not turning on, i tried to reset it holding home button   power but that does not work, any idea?

    my ipod touch is not working , i tried to rest it holding the power button and home for a while but that does not help..
    any idea ?

    Connect the iPod to its syncing computer.  Let it charge for 1/2 hour .  If iTunes sees the iPod restore it via iTunes
    Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible in iTunes so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Also see:

    Did "everything" include this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 and this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275, which says:
    Error 23, 28, 29, 40, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1611: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device.  Follow the steps in this article and also attempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device.  If the MAC address is missing or the IMEI is the default value (00 499901 064000 0), this can also confirm a hardware issue.

  • My Macbook Pro doesnt seem to connect to my Belkin wireless router. It is connected but the internet would not work. any suggestions?

    hey guys. I am having trouble with my internet. My MacBook Pro seems to be connected with Belkin wireless router, but the internet would not work. We recently changed the router so its pretty new, and it used to work on my HP laptop. Although there were some problems, it still worked. But now, the internet works and stops suddenly, and then works again.
    I would love to hear some suggestions to get rid of this.
    Thanks
    Kiran

    If you have not already done so, read the troubleshooting section in Belkin's user manual, contact their customer tech support by phone or go to its website.  Please detail all you have done to resolve your issue.  Need this information so that the users can avoid the "been there, done that" scenario type responses.  This is to avoid repeating the troubleshooting you may have already tried.  Thank you.

  • Trying to install Flash 11.5 on Mac OS X 10.6.8. Install completes but Flash does not work - any help?

    Hi, I was told I didn't have Flash 7 when trying to see something online (which I am sure was incorrent to begin with) so I followed the provided link to download Flash version 11.5. The download completed without problems but Flash doesn't seem to work at all. I have uninstalled, reinstalled and restarted. I don't know what to try next, any help would be much appreciated!

    Start here;

    Also, never, never follow links for flash, codecs or plug-ins of any kind from websites that throw up these warnings - there's a high chance of the link being to a malware site.
    Always go directly to the vendor.

    What part isn't working? The download? The install? Do you see an error message? Are you downloading a trial version, or did you pay for it?
    Please post more details, and someone may be able to help you.

  • Offten I type a text message but when I touch send nothing happends. Other times its ok. I can receive text and my wife can send text when my phone will not. Any suggestions as to a fix?

    Offten I type a text message on my iPhone 4G and nothing happends when I press send. The send button will not function. I can receive text and my wife's pnone iPhone 4g can send but I can not. Any suggestions as to a fix?

    What in the world is an iPhone 4G? There is NONE. There is an iPhone 4, and an iPhone 4th Generation, but there is NO iPhone 4G.
    Anyways, what it sounds like is that you've got the MMS subject line on, and if this is the case, then you've been typing into the subject line, instead of the body of the text.
    You can either type in the body of the text, instead of the subject line, or disable the subject line in the settings.
    If your subject line is off, or you ARE typing in the body, then something's wrong with your iPhone.

  • Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?  Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

    Apple is great!
    Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?  Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).
    I compose an iMessage with the destination as my email address and I attach 2 photos I want on my PC.  I send them several times from my iPhone 5C but they never arrive. I look at my ipad later and realize that it's iMessage app is getting ( and swallowing) these emails. I then turn the ipad off.  Still can't get the photos through because iphone is now getting them on it's iMessage.  I turn off the iMessage feature and try to send photos from text msging.  Phone tells me it can't send photos unless iMessage it turned on.  What happened to regular MMS text messaging?  I go and try to send photos as an email attachment and see that there is no option to attach from the stupid email program.  I look up online to learn about the brave new world of apple attachments and send them.
    Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?
    The email program on my iphone is not configured to remove messages from the server.
    If iMessage is turned off I don't have the issue.
    Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

    Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.
