My iphone is connected to my home network and imessage keeps failing. Is this normal? How do I fix it?

I recently changed my iphone settings to restrict all data to wi-fi. Since then I have been unable to send imessages. I keep getting the '!' and the 'Not Delivered' message. Could these things be related? How do I fix it without enabling celular data?

Are you sure that you're sending the message to the correct number or apple id? You could try to turn off the wifi just for isolation. Have you tried sending from elsewhere to see if it's the phone or the network? Try some isolation steps to see where the issue's coming from

  • Why won't my iphone 4 connect to my home network?

    I've had my iphone4 connected to my home wifi network for about 18 months with no problems.  A few weeks ago it suddenly dropped the connection and when I try to connect, and enter the password, it tries but then responds that it can't join the network.
    I can connect to other networks at work and in public.  There is a laptop  and another iphone4 connected to the home network with no problems.
    Today, I ahve reset the router (as suggested on another thread) and reconfigured the network.  The laptop is connected and working but now NEITHER iphone will connect to the wifi.
    Help please!
    Sue

    Thanks for trying but mine hasn't. I've connected to this router before with no problems. There doesn't seem to be a reasonable explanation.

  • I found a wifi network called linksys and it let me connect to the network for a while but now it wont let me. it says that the ipad 2 is unable to connect and we have tried to connect to the home network and it didnt pick up the signal.

    but my laptop will. so my grandson restarted the home network and the ipad 2 still wont pick it up. but my laptop will pick the home network.

When i try connecting to itunes on my laptop it still doesnt program, by the way my itunes has the latest updae. Why is this? How can i fix it?

    Hey there Raymondd2014,
    It sounds like you had been updating the phone and now it is in recovery mode. Take a look at this info first:
    If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
    If you are unable to get out of Recovery Mode, use the following article to restore your device with iTunes:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    If you don't see your device in iTunes follow these steps for Windows.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • HT1695 My phone will not connect to my home network. I keep getting a window that says "Unable to join the network"

    I received a replacement phone from the Apple Store and since I brought my phone home I can not get it to connect to my network. I've reset the iPhone and reset my home network. Any suggestions?

    Hello AriJR,
    Thanks for the question, that definitely sounds frustrating. Are you able to isolate the issue further (i.e. does the iPhone connect to other good-known Wi-Fi networks?)
    I would recommend following the Wi-Fi troubleshooting assistant here:
    Apple - Support - iPhone - Join a network Assistant
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/wifi/
    For more detailed information/troubleshooting steps, see this resource:

  • Can i use new TC to connect wirelessly to home network and plug my tv into the time capsule for internet connectivity?

    My new tv needs to plug into an ethernet port for internet connectivity. 
    I'm hoping it can plug into my TC however my TC is wirelessly connected to my current home network... how can i get this to work?
    TC version A1470 (i think, brand new)
    Many thanks.
    Ben

    If the TC is connected to a wireless network provided by another Apple router, then the TC extends the network by default, and the Ethernet ports are enabled on the TC.
    If the TC is connected to a third party network wirelessly, then it must have been setup to "join" the wireless network. When the TC is set up this way, the TC becomes a wireless hard drive and nothing more. The Ethernet ports are not enabled when the TC "joins" a wireless network.
    So, a logical first troubleshooting step would be to confirm "how" the TC is currently set up. To do that.....assuming that you are using a current or recent version of AirPort Utility on your Mac.......
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click on the TC icon, then click Edit in the smaller window
    Click the Wireless tab at the top of the window
    Check the setting for Network Mode and report on that

  • HT1338 my mac book pro is constantly "looking for networks" while connected using my home network and other wifi systems. how can i stop it?

    Why is my Mac Book constantly "looking for networks" while i am using wifi?

    If it is constantly searching for networks every five seconds or so, then it is the bluetooth - wifi problem discussed on other threads. I find that system preferences > network and clicking at the bottom on the 'Show wi-fi status in menu bar' button to switch it off, and then back onto the menu bar, solves the problem. Sometimes on waking I lose wi-fi completely and have to reload, but that's infrequent.
    Hopefully Apple will come up with a solution soon.

  • My phone is not switching from 4G over to WiFi. The phone has the network memorized its just not check marking the network and to switch over to WiFi. How can I fix this?

    I have the iPhone 4S and the wifi was working on it earlier yesterday. I noticed that the wifi didn't kick on last night. It has the network memorized so it could connect automatically. The network name pops up and there's a signal but the spinning circle thing is there and it won't put a check mark by the network name. The wifi will pop up every now and then but only stay for a minute or less. Everyone else's phone and computer is connecting just fine but mine isn't. It won't switch over to WiFi from 4G. I've tried turning off the wifi on my phone. I've tried to forget the network and put in the password numerous of times and I tried to fix it by turning my phone on and off and that still didn't work. I'm hoping that this is a temporary thing but I don't know. What's a good way to fix this because seriously I would like to not use up all of my data for this kind of bull crap. So what's a good way to fix this?

    I got the ATV hooked up to the WiFi after manually inputting the DHCP settings.
    The ATV will not see iTunes from a PC on the same iTune network.  I guess you need an Apple computer for iTunes to connect to the ATV.
    The biggest problem is that the iTunes store on the ATV is nonexistent I imagine because of competition/ monopolies in the UAE.  If I was in Lao, Burma, Thailand, Mozambique no problem.  40 Countries are listed and non of them are from the Middle East.  When I logon to the iTunes store on my PC it too does not allow for me to buy any movies or TV shows.  I am not sure why. 
    As for the iPad OS6, iTunes has an icon and when you click it you get iTune U or Podcast, no video content.  The App store works fine and they are always happy to take your money but no video content. 
    To top it all off YouTube is no longer licensed under OS6.0 and although I can get it on Google Chrome it is by no means as quick (for reasons unknown).
    As I said before if I choose United States as my country the ATV hooks up and lets me browse TV and movies and watch trailers but not able to purchase (obviously).
    So my conclusion is that ATV will not hook up to the iTune store in the UAE?  If this is incorrect please clue me in.

  • My WiFi will not turn on. Its not a connection problem. The on and off button will not move. How do I fix it?

    How do I fix it?

    Take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    If those 5 steps don't fix it, the iPhone will need service.

  • HT4623 i can't activate my i phone what should i do? i have used i tunes and connected to wifi as well and it keep telling me this We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care.

    i need help on activating my iphone please.

    Where exactly did you get the phone?  If you have a SIM in it, it was most likely hacked to unlock it, meaning it's now completely bricked unless you can get the original carrier to authorize a legitimate unlock.

  • HT4972 The Wi-fi on my iPhone 4 does not connect to my home network or other networks

    The Wi-fi on my iPhone 4 does not connect to my home network or other networks that I have used in the past.  I noticed this after I updated to version 6.  I have tried to reset network settings ;turn off and on wi-fi; reset home network and it's still not working.  Is there a fix for this problem?

    Try resetting your network settings.  Go to General\Reset\Reset Netork Settings.  Sometimes this will fix things.  If not, what type of router do you have, what network are you running (B, G, N, etc.).,
    Good luck!

  • Connecting to existing home network via Airport Express

    I had my Macbook Pro connected to our home router which allowed me access to our home network and the internet. On this network we had connected both my MBP and my flatmates PC (which is connected directly to the router via network cable).
    Through this configuration i was able to both access the internet AND access files on the PC. I have recently purchased and airport express to eliminate the need for the network cord. Since setting up the AE i have been able to connect to the internet no problem by creating a wireless network and using all the automatic settings, however in the process i have lost my ability to connect to the home network and my flatmates computer. In fact, under "networks" in finder the home network has disappeared. Also in network prefences i am getting a warning saying "The cable for Ethernet is not plugged in".
    Is anyone able to tell me what im doing wrong?
    thanks ....

    The problem is that the AirPort Express (AX) is creating a subnet.
    To prevent that, configure the AX to act as a bridge (so that it is NOT sharing a single IP address).
