Now it wont send messages in Wifi at all, which was my first problem. Dont have cell service at home, only wifi.
FYI: Only iMessages (which are only sent to other iOS users) are sent over wifi. If you log out of iMessages, you cannot send any text messages (since you do not have cell service).
Dont have cell service at home
Have you contacted your cell provider about this?
But glad you got it sorted.

    HI
    SMS's that i send show up to recievers with my email instead of my name
    can ANYONE help please!!

    The Caller ID setting determines how your message will be received by others.  If you select your number there, your message will be identified by your number to the recipient, and if they have your name and number in their contacts it will display your name.  The Receive At setting only shows the ways others can address messages to you, such as by your phone number or email address.  (Your number shown in Receive At can't be selected because you can't be changed or removed.)

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep sending emails instead of texts via iMessage?

    Why does my iPhone 4 keep sending emails instead of texts via iMessage?

    This was driving me crazy but I've cracked it!!
    Go to: Settings, Messages, Send & Receive.  My mobile number was greyed out and wouldn't allow me to select it.  My email address was highlighted but it also allowed me to "Add An Email".  I selected my current email address and it gave me the option to delete it.  Once I deleted my email address, it automatically reverted to my mobile number!!
    Hip hip hooray.  I can relax at last.

  • Since downloading new OS, cannot send email "server rejected"

    Since downloading new OS, cannot send email "server rejected"

    How do you know everything is correct? where did you get the instruction? Sometimes the default ports are different on different devices and thus you have to manually change the ports used.

  • Old but new Q: Cannot send email from Mac Mail application but computer tells me I'm online

    I know this is an "old" issue for many, but I cannot find the solution to my problem.
    A couple of months ago I moved to a new flat--suddenly I could not send emails anymore from my Mac Mail app, although I could receive them. I called Comcast, my Internet provider, who said it was my email server's problem. My email server is icloud, so I talked to a Mac tech guy who did remote desktop troubleshooting and said everything was set up correctly, etc., so I will have to talk to Comcast again. I called Comcast again and they told me again, it is not their issue.
    So this is what happens: When I try to send an email, I get the spinning circle in the mailbox bar, and then it tells me after five minutes of spinning that icloud is offline. However, when I do a further check of the diagnostics, the light is green and says that yes, in fact I am connected/online. Note: I can send and receive fine on webmail, but I do not want to keep using webmail at home. It is very inconvenient.
    I called Mac support again, and they told me I should find my solution online; otherwise, I can pay $20 to have someone remotely troubleshoot for me. Of course, I could not find the answer online. I am quite frustrated and annoyed at this point. Is it a port issue? Is it an OS issue? Mind you, I only have this problem at home, nowhere else. I take my laptop to a café, to a friend's place--I can send emails just fine. This leads me to believe that it's a Comcast issue, although they deny it.
    Any thoughts would be deeply, deeply appreciated! Thank you!!

    How about some free much-needed advice on how I can
    start receiving emails again!
    This indicates you were able to receive email with
    your Verizon account previously with the Mail.app?
    If so, try running Keychain First Aid on your login
    Keychain.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=151548
    Open Keychain Access, located in
    Applications/Utilities.
    Choose Window > Keychain First Aid.
    Select your login Keychain, enter your password,
    select Repair and then Start.
    This is Trevor from the first post and I figured it out:
    Go into mail - preferences - and delete the email account in question - the window will tell you that you'll lose all your saved mail, etc - you can save it if you like.
    Then click on yes and you create a new mail account using your same incoming/outgoing settings. And, like magic, it works!
    Try it - and if you want to save any mail before deleting your affected account, do it.
    All the best!

  • Reminder Workflow does not recalculate new date to send email, if due date is changed

    I created a basic reminder workflow using due date, and status column. it works well.
    Let's say, I want to send a reminder email 2 days prior to the due date.
    I used Add -2 to due date and set a variable
    then used Pause variable
    if status is not equal to completed
    then send email
    And I have this set to initiate when a new item is created, and modified.
    However, if the due date is changed, it does not recalculate the new date to send the reminder email.  Help!

    Hi MonalisaM,
    The in-progress workflow instance will be unable to re-start itself when list item is modified, but I think you can design workflow with using the second workflow to update the list item one filed, then this update triggers
    the first workflow again.
    Stop this reminder workflow (first workflow) when due date is changed, then this will trigger the second workflow to change another custom column(e.g. Flag), then the first workflow will be triggered due to this custom column
    Flag value changed by second workflow, I mean the second workflow is used to upadate this custom list item one filed(e.g. Flag) in order to trigger the reminder workflow(first workflow).
    You can read the following article for more information to understand how to make the first workflow re-start by using second workflow.

  • When I send an Imessage the receiving party sees my apple id / email instead of my name.

    Hello,
    When I send an Imessage the receiving party sees my apple id / email (is the same in my case)  instead of my name from their contacts. This worked fine but sudenly it has changest. People reply with 'who are you'. When they send an Imessage to me from an old conversation witch used to work with Imessage it is send as SMS.
    I have tried all settings under settings > messages.
    I read on this communitie other people have the same problem but no one seems to have the solution.
    Anyone?
    Thanks.

    I found the solution. At work we compared settings and several people had this same issue....
    The solution is:
    Settings > messages > receive on > Use Apple Id for iMessage - needs to be switched off.
    Strange thing i don't know how ik got switched on....
    But it is solved.

    Hi Peter. Welcome to the forums.
    Are you getting any error messages ?
    For non BTinternet email addresses, you normally need to do something called address verification. See my shortcuts option 0e on this topic.

  • People are getting my email instead of contact name?

    Not sure if there is a way around it or not, but whenever I start up a conversation through text on my iPad and I haven't previously had a conversation going for it to show up on my iPad, people get my email address instead of my number which would be in their contacts with my name. So essentially they'll ask who this is, I'll explain and I say to merge the two contacts. Just that is a hassl, is there a way around this at all?
    Under messages in the settings, under Send & Receive it has my email address which I can remove if I want, would that get rid of my email address when I send a text and they would supposedly be getting a text thru my email instead of my contact number? On both my iPhone and iPad I have that email under Send & Receive, if I deleted it would people stop getting my email address for a text or FaceTime (also happens for FaceTime) and just get my number instead (and if my number is in their contacts practically my name)?
    I Just got a new iPhone a few weeks ago and haven't been experimenting heavily until the holidays now. Plus I got a iPad a few days ago. So that's why I've been getting these problems.
    On another note, if it helps at all, my iPad has cellular for AT&T.

    Does anyone know at all?

  • Send email immediately on creation of support message

    How do I set up system to create an email automatically immediately when a support message has been created.
    I can get it right to send an email when the status change. But then the message only get send once someone is attending to the message and he/she changes the status.
    The reason for this is to send and email with the notification number and description back to the user that he/she can keep as a reference. It can sometimes take more than 2 hours before someone actually open a support message and change the status on that support message.
    Therefore I presume that you will not be using an action then or would you still use an action.
    Thank you

    Please just clarify the following for me.
    SAP note 1041455 refer:
    1) Copy the BAdi - I did use SE19:
    1a) I copy the BAdi: CRM_DNO_PARTNER1 to  ZCRM_DNO_PARTNER1
          I also copied the imp.Class: now called :ZCL_IM_ZCRM_DNO_PARTNER_1
    1b) The note ask me to assign new filter value (Method)
          What must be done here in this step?
    1c) I changed the code.
    1d) I SAVED but could not activate it, becuase I get message that say the value
          is not unique.
          So I presume it has to do with adding the new filter value that must be added
          in 1b). Must I select a new filter value from the list or must I just type
          in a new value name like "ZCRM_DNO_PARTNER1" and then try and
          activate this new BAdi. Currently the value that is here in the filter value is
          ZCRM_DNO_PARTNER1.
    2) Customsing.
         The note refer to the action definition that uses the BAdi and assign the
         new filter value in the processing settings of your action.
         Can you maybe just eloborate to what to do.
    Thanks
    JB
