Problems texting another Verizon user

I have an iPhone 4, and it constantly has problems sending texts to my boyfriend's phone, a Stratosphere.  He is also a Verizon customer.  We will be in the middle of a conversation, and he won't respond because he is waiting for my text that my phone says has been sent.  I get all of his messages though.  He is the only person this happens with.  Is there a problem with my phone?  With his?  Anything that could help would be greatly appreciated.

    Jkeapple,
My gosh! I know how important it is to make sure that your messaging is working properly. If you are receiving his messages and he is not receiving yours then I would say it is his phone. Does he ever get the message? Is he using a third-party (downloaded) text messaging application on his phone? Have him delete your entire message thread from his phone. Then send a test message to his phone. Keep me posted.

  • Why am I being charged to text another iPhone user from my iPhone

    I have a pre-paid AT&T phone and am charged per text.   Normally it uses iMessage when I text other iPhone users and I am not charged.  When my friend that also has some kind of pre-paid, non-standard plan (not AT&T, t-molbie, or verizon) texts me on her iphone, I am charged for it.  Initally, I had some problems with being charged from other iphone users, but that may have been resolved when my IPad captured of the text first, before the phone did.
    anyone had any experience with fixing this?

    Good point!

  • How did I lose $8.20? with prepaid core to another verizon mobile

    It went from 44.52 - 36.32 in less than an hour. 
    It was 47.21 just yesterday so I lost $11 in one day???
    I know it is .99 each day you use it, but why did it charge me this much?
    ============
    It was found, but not completely "fixed"
    It was roaming but, it was from my home to another verizon cell close by.
    The procedure is cannot fix unless this happens again.
    I would like to prevent this from happening again. I did Settings & Tools> Phone Settings> System Select >  Home Only, it was on Automatic B, would this change anything?
    I'm not even sure if I should make another thread regarding this.

    You know it's unlimited to mobile to mobile... if .99/ day. I said it's Prepaid CORE. I'm calling another VERIZON user
    It is ROAMING because the representative said it. I do not have any "apps" and I'm NOT texting anyone. 
    Also, Excluding outgoing calls, INBOUND CALLS somehow charges me .20 PER MINUTE, and website states: DOMESTIC ROAMING as .20 / min.
    I seletected "Home Only"
    I was told to go to a store and have someone do something on my phone : "Hybrid PRL" yet, they didn't know what I was talking about. They had to get other people to try to help me out on this problem. So this is what they told me:
    I did *228 and pressed 2, and then 1
    If this didn't help, they said "I had to buy a new phone"

  • Is the KIN TwoM able to send texts over 170 characters to other Verizon users?

    So one thing that basically all Verizon phones have is Backup Assistant.  From what I read, the new KINs are the exception.  Likewise, it's nice to be able to send texts over 170 characters as single texts to other Verizon customers.  If you try to send texts that are over 170 characters to non-Verizon customers, you'll get an error text back.  I just want to make sure that re-branded KINs aren't the "exception" again.
    I like this phone on paper, but I'm hesistant because of:
    -No Backup Assistant.  It's not even the fact that I'd have to sit down and type all my contacts in, but rather my contacts won't be backed up regularly like they are now.
    -Some people seem to be having trouble getting the pictures off the phone.  From what I understand, the original KINs would save the high-resolution photo to the Studio, and a smaller low-resolution picture to the phone.  With the re-branded KINs, is there any way I can get the 8MP picture off the phone?  What's the point of a good camera if I can't keep the high-resolution pictures?
    -The possible texting over 170 characters issue.
    Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

    - I haven't messed with any of the uploading to the computer because honestly they didn't give any software.  I just downloaded ZUNE to see if I can transfer photos or videos through that, maybe contacts too, but thats highly unlikely.
    -ABOVE:  Trying to install ZUNE because i heard you can transfer through that.
    I have e-mailed a photo as an MMS to my e-mail but it only transfers as a 600x400 pixel image, which is not 8MP.  I will try sending a photo to another phone and using a memory card to transfer but that would be annoying and required 2 VERIZON users + a memory card.
    -You can text over 170.  I have tested this.  I am not sure if you can receive over 170 but sending is not a problem.

  • Problem with non iPhone users receiving my text sent pictures. Can I make them smaller files?

    Problem with non iPhone users receiving my text sent pictures.  Can I make them smaller files? I know that is possible for email sent pics.

    My bad,  It was a Verizon problem.  When they upgraded my phone they were supposed to remove all blocks on messaging . Found out they did not do this.  All messaging now works.  Thanks for listening.

  • HT6154 Why are my texts sending as a text message to another iphone user instead of an imessage?

    I just got my new iphone 5s. Well I have been sending text message to another iphone user and my text are going in as a text message instead of an imessage. The never happened with my iphone 4s.  Also I do not recieve some of my text message till almost an hour later.  This has nothing to do with where I am because I can be down the road from someone and I did not get their message until I got closer to her.  Me and my husband just got these new iphone 5s and we are both having the same problem.  Can someone help?  I don't want to return the phone but if I continue to have this problem I'll just keep my iphone 4s because I never ran into any problems like this prior.

  • My iPhone 4 sending a iMessage to another iPhone user, the message will send then says not delieverd? So I have to send it as a normal text message .

    Hey! So I'm having a problem with sending an IMessage to another iPhone user and they are having the same problem. The problem is; is that I send a message to them it will attempt to send then will say under the message that it was not delivered? So I send it as a normal text message. Weird part is that we both have full service and have the phone bills paid. Lol

    There is an earlier thread that was answered by an Apple employee that states they are seeing the iMessage and Facetime servers are down. It is unknown when they will return, however it generally is not an extended period of time.

  • Problem in Import DMP-User Level to another tablespace

    Hi,
    I have some problem in recovering a user objects, using from exp logical dump file.I am using 8172 version of oracle.I took a exp backup from user 'john'(NOTE all objects of john are from "KATTY" tablespace).I tried to import to another database where there is no KATTY tablespace.While trying to do so,the operation wasn't succeeded becoz of the non existence of tablespace at the target database.But in this situation,I dont want to create tablespace called "KATTY",to make this successful,since there is no space in my sun box.Can some one suggest me an alternate method using imp(without creating the tablespace).

    create you new user john in the new database prior to import. Ensure user john has a default tablespace on the new database. When import runs, if it cannont find the oeiginal tablespace, it will create objects in the default tablespace.

  • I am having problems to run logic pro 9, there is an error display that says I need to set bonjour and that this app serial number has been used by another red user,  could anybody guide me?

    I am having problems to run logic pro 9, there is an error display that says I need to set bonjour and that this app serial number has been used by another red user,  could anybody guide me? actually, my computer can't start  since three days ago, could it be the same problem?

    Logic is the APPlication (program, app) that you are having the problem with.
    Logic Pro can take advantage of other computers on your local (home or work) network to help it do "heavy lifting" data chores by using Bonjour and a feature called Nodes.   It seems that Logic is attempting to find and connect to another machine on your network.
    Do you have Logic installed on another computer there?  That may be the source of the confilict.
    You might want to post this question in the Logic Pro Community.
    Be sure to indicate the version of Logic Pro that you are using.  I'm sure the folks there can help you out.

  • Why can't i send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    Why can't I send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad mini while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    With the Apple iMessage app, You can only Message with other iOS users - iPads, iPod Touch, iPhone users and Macs running Mountain Lion or higher. With your iPhone, you can send standard SMS text messages to any phone, including Android phones.
    The iPad cannot send SMS messages or receive them either.
