Outlook 2013 - Lost Ability to Send Text Messages - Exchange 2010
Hi Folks,
I have an exchange 2010 server that has been up and running for 3+ years. I use MS exchange and Outlook 2010/2013 for receiving and replying to text messages on an Android based phone.
Without upgrading or changing anything, this past week one of my Outlook 2013 clients lost the ability to send or reply to text messages. In Outlook under "Home:New Items" the "New Text Message" option was gone. The exchange account was
still receiving text messages that were sent to the phone. But when I hit reply it said account not setup.
I checked on another computer with an Outlook 2013 client, and it still had the option for "New Text Message". I contacted Outlook support, and they just wasted 45 minutes of my times and said they can't help because exchange was involved.
Now several days later, all my clients have lost the option of "New Text Message". It's not greyed out from the list, it's gone.
Thanks for the help!
Dave B

Please check the destination telephone number and try again. Note all national UK mobile numbers now start 07........... and then a tab saying "Dismiss". this happens for all my contacts ?
Check with your cell provider and have them see if your phone is provisioned correctly for SMS.

Lost ability to use text message (SMS) after update!
I updated the device software on my Z10 last night and since then cannot compose or reply to a text message. I have tried pulling the battery (more than once) and deleting and recreating but nothing is working. Please help!!
Hello Palindrome,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Can you please confirm a few examples of some situations where this issue may occur?
1. Did the device lost power (for example, battery was removed) during the installation process of the software update?
2. Did the BlackBerry Z10 smartphone have an unreleased version of the BlackBerry 10 OS installed before the update?
To resolve the issue you are having we will most likely have to reload the BlackBerry 10 OS using BlackBerry Link.
I look forward to your reply!

I'm using Entourage 2008 v 12.3.5 and lost ability to SEND. Tried many small email tests. Server continues to leave time out message. "An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too much net traffic." Comcast tells me server is not down all other network activity is fine. WHat's up with this?
Starting earlier today, this also became my problem - can receive but not send in Entourage. The account settings are correct in Entourage - I even created a new account. My Mac running 10.7.5 won't read the original Office : MAC 2008 disk, so I can't do a fix or reinstall from the disk.
This is not an issue if I log onto the Comcast site.
And so, I started using Mail but, unlike Entourage, Mail won't import my Entourage info.
Argh... :-( -
My wife and I both have iPhone 5s, I can't send text messages to non iPhone people that I use to but iPhone people I can, My wife can send text to non iPhone numbers. I have checked and we both have the same settings. Both of our phones are up to date 7.0.4.
The ability to see and send calendar invites is a function of the calendar you are subscribing to and who owns it. We need more information, like what calendar are you subscribing to? MS Exchange? Google? Mobile Me?

My daughter has a Pantech Crux phone. and yesterday we noticed that she was not gettng any text messages. We tried the *228 update and turned phone off, while phone was on we took out battery then put it back in and powered on the phone and she was still unable to receive any text messages so we shut down her phone then took the battery out waited a minute and then powered it back on and she is still not able to receive text messages. she can send text messages & she can call out and receive phone calls but she can still not receive any text messages!! any suggestions we can do to get this fixed?? she is not eligable for a upgrade until April 2013 she will have had this phone a year in about 10 days. will they replace her phone under warranty where it has not been a year but almost by a week or two. We also did purchase the Insurance for the phone as well.
Any help from anyone to help me on what I can do to get this fixed.
Thanks
Message was edited by: Jami EmerineI am having the same issue with my daughters phones. I believe its an issue with Pantech. My daughter has a Pantech Crux and is able to make calls, receive calls, and send text messages but she is not able to receive any messages. My other daughter has a Pantech Hotshot and is having the exact same issue. We contacted Verizon and went through all of the troubleshooting necessary and even reset the phone and it still didn't work. Verizon sent out a replacement phone today (Crux) and the issue is still not resolved. This tells me it's an issue with Pantech... maybe a software update was done?? Both of my daughters are teenagers and mainly communicate through text messaging, so I am sure anyone can understand that they are in crisis LOL. Any suggestions on what to do next?

Can't send text messages (can only recieve). How do I change Service Center Number
Hello. As my subject states, i can't seem to send text messages (but i can receive them). I'm told by my carrier that i need to change my service center number (and they provided it). I've been looking all over the phone for this option, and can't seem to find it. I keep seeing posts saying "On your device: Options > SMS > Service Center." but "service center" does not appear when i go to options>SMS text. I see the following; screen options conversation style: show names: message options priority: callback number: disable autotext: so my question is;, where do i find this?

you did publish it in your "private information" part in your profile. But you have to configure your profile to allow people to view your private information. Here is a screenshot of what I see :

I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

Can't send Text messages to Android phones or receive text from any websites
I cant send text message to android phone or even to my gmail account from iphone 4s. I have disabled iMessage and rebooted the phone. I have also reset my apple password with no luck. This is a corporate phone.
Hi LASalem,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your iPhone is not sending/receiving messages to certain devices the way your would expect. To begin the troubleshooting process, I suggest working through the troubleshooting information in the attached article.

After I upgraded my Iphone 4 with the ios 7.1.1 it locks up while sending text messages. I can usually send a few then will have to restart my phone(often more than once) to get it to send and receive messages again. I have done a back up and complete reset and that has not fixed the problem. Have been told that the ios 7.1.1 just isn't compatible with the Iphone 4 so that's why it is locking up so often, but I am hoping someone else may have a better answer since it can't be undone. Thanks!
7.1.1 is certainly compatible with the iPhone 4. Just try a reset first.
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss) -
i can only send text messages to one of my IPhone contacts. How can i change it back? ive tried restarting, deleting contact and adding back, turning off Imessages and then back on. not working

Is there a way to block someone from sending Text Messages ONLY?
I would like to block a family member from sending text messages but I do not want to restrict calling abilities in case of an emergency.
I have gone to My Verizon>>Safeguards but this option only seems to allow you to block on an "All or Nothing" basis.
Is there a way to prevent someone from sending you text messages while still allowing phone calls?Thanks for your response. I have an I Phone (I Messages) but the party that I want to block does not have an I Phone.

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.
You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.
