N70 Unable to send Text msg - Please help

I have just got an N70 complete with pc suite 6.7. I have used it twice to send text msgs last week and today have come to use it and it says unable to send txt msg. I have read through all other threads and have found that even though it says this it still sends (unbeknown at the time so i clicked it about 10 times!!!!)
I am not a very technical computer person so if anyone can help in VERY SIMPLE computer lingo it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

All I can think is that the message centre number is somehow wrong... but it shouldn't be, as far as I'm aware, the PC Suite puts the outgoing SMS in your outbox and the phone deals with it from there on...

Can't receive or send texts? please help!

every so often my text messages don't send and I can't receive them either. either the loading bar at the top takes forever or they dont send at all. It's happening a lot more recently, sometimes my inbox is completely blank (not even showing old messages) and sometimes it says I have unread messages when I dont! I've tried using imessage, that doesn't work either just does the same. im using an iphone 5 now but it used to happen on my iphone 4 too! Ive even switched networks so I don't think it's that. I have a full signal bar, full wifi, I can get it to work if I restart my iphone but 10 minutes later the problems back. also tried resetting my network settings, please can someone help, this is really annoying! i only got my iphone last month, thanks

Same problem, cannot text and when I call it comes up as number not known.

IPhone 3GS, running ios5 successfully for weeks, cannot send a message without the messaging app immediately crashing. I have restored, updated, turned on and off, still cannot receive or send texts. Please help!

I originally restored my phone after music and videos iTunes said had synced were not showing up on my phone - sorted that problem, now this.

This may sound dumb, but if you can't send or receive any texts at all, someone in another thread mentioned shutting down, taking out the SIM card, reinserting, and rebooting. If that doesn't work try putting the SIM in another phone then putting it back in the iPhone. If it still doesn't work ask the provider for a new SIM.
Also, I don't understand why iPhone doesn't allow MMS without data. MMS was DESIGNED to be sent as a text message and it works on regular "dumb" phones with no data. This is not new technology yet iPhone is purposely blocking it. That is ridiculous. You can see from the following table that this is what Apple wants:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
(As a side note, you can also see from the table they are intentionally blocking the ability to send a text to an email address even though that too is not a new feature, and that too works in other phones.)

HT4993 I am unable to send text imessages after update on 4S...please help and thank you. They just sit there in the sending mode.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

IPhone 5 Showing incorrect Time. Unable to send text messages.

Ok here's my problem. My time on my iPhone is incorrect. I check my settings it's on automatic and it is set to my Hawaii time zone. I am unable to send text messages because I believe the time is not the same as the server. When I try to send a text it says Go to Date & time settings. This happens at least once a day. My time would be incorrect for 10 mins then go back to correct time. This happens on LTE and on WiFi. I also have rebooted the iPhone. One last thing. I check my battery usage. It's says 4,294,967,278 days on Standby. I guess the time is messing up my stats. Anyone have the same problem? Please help. If not I hope new ios update fix this.

My house is in an area that is covered by 3G. But I work in an area that is 4G-LTE. (Actually, my house is right on the border of these coverages because I notice it switching from 3G to LTE periodically.)
Anyway, what I notice is that when I switch from the LTE to 3G network, my iPhone 5 clock gets corrupted. It's 2h22m off. Weird. It doesn't do it right away, but after I'm home for awhile, I'll notice that the clock has been changed. I know this corruption causes errors in my iMessage app because I've gotten an error message about it. It may cause errors in others.
Once I leave my house and go back into stable LTE coverage, I can do one of the following to correct the clock (because it won't autocorrect):
- turn the phone off and then back on
- go to Settings => General => Date&Time and switch "Set Automatically" off and then back on
These fixes will also work if I stay in 3G coverage.
This has happened every day since I got the phone so I know it's a real bug. I'm sending a support request to Apple today. Otherwise, however, I love my iPhone 5 and LTE speed makes all the difference.

Error Message - Unable to send text message!

Hi, hope someone can help me with this.
I have started getting this error when i send a text from PC Suite via my 7610. The text sends properly and this error shows up.
Setup:
Windows XP Pro - Service Pack 2
PC Suite Version - 6.70.22
Bluetooth connection.
Started out of the blue with no warning.
I have tried removing the battery from the phone and putting it back in. I uninstalled and reinstalled the suite.
Any help Appreciated.

i had the same problem. sending an sms with the pc suite produces the unable to send text message error. i tried removing SMSsync, PC support form the phone as described in the forum. None of this helped for me.
eventually uninstalled pc suite from the pc. then ran the pc suite cleaner, it can be found here:
http://europe.nokia.com/nokia/0,8764,75877,00.html
reinstalled the pc suite and that solved the problems
sms's sent via pc suite are now sending successfully

I just upgraded my phone. I keep getting duplicate texts. Please help.

Toggle iMessage Off then On
Turning iMessage off then on again worked for my particular issue. You can do this by following these steps:
From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
Select “Messages“
Slide “iMessages” to off for about 3 minutes, then turn it back on.
Your iPhone will be re-registered and may clear up the duplicate text message notification problem.
Repeat Alerts Setting
There is a setting that repeats notifications which could cause this issue. Check it with these steps:
From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
Select “Notification Center“.
Choose “Messages“.
Ensure that the “Repeat Alerts” setting is set to “Once“.
Send & Receive Setting
Another setting that involves sending notifications to multiple numbers could be the issue as well. Check the following:
From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
Select “Messages“.
Choose “Send & Receive“.
Ensure that only your phone number is listed in the “You can be reached by iMessage at” area. If you have an email address or anything else listed, it could cause duplicate text messages.

Any problem with a text not being successfully sent you need to take up with the carrier being used at the time.

Is the mobile number in the messaging center, my actual phone number??
Sorry i asked this on you discussion, but its soo confusing .
The mobile phone looking number is what you call the message center number. Contact your service provider to get the actual one. Then, make sure that you have the same number updated in Messaging -> Options -> Settings -> Text messages -> Msg. centre in use.
This is not your "actual phone number".
