Receive texts from some group members, not all group members

Hello!
I have an iPhone 5S and recently purchased an iMac. iMac is on OSX Yosemite and iPhone is on iOS 8.1.2
Recently I have been involved in a few group SMS text chains and I am receiving texts from some of the group members but not all of them. I can receive texts individually from everyone in the group.
I was recently playing around with iMessage on my new iMac and feel like I may have done something in the setup that caused this issue.
Anyone know what's going on? I reset network settings on my phone and closed out iMessage on my computer (I also signed out of iMessage completely)

If iMessage is turned off on both devices and you are still unable to receive their texts, it is a carrier issue, the carrier will need to resolve it.
If iMessage is turned on on both devices and you are unable to receive their texts, it's an iMessage setup issue.

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • Not receiving texts from some iphone users.. anybody know whats up with that?

    Just got Samsung S4 and I'm not receiving texts from some iPhone users.
    Do i have something set up wrong?

    It appears you have moved from an iPhone to an android phone. The problem you are having is because you did not deactivate your iMessage service before leaving.
    If you still have your iPhone, you can re-activate it and then
    turn on iMessage in the settings
    uncheck your email and phone number
    turn off iMessage
    Settings>Messages
    If you don't have your phone or don't want to go thru the hassle of reactivating it, you can simply call Apple at 800-694-7466 and ask them to turn off your iMessage.

  • HT5622 I have a Galaxy s4 now and cannot receive text from some of my old iphone contacts.

    Please don't hate but i recently changed to a Galaxy S4 from my iPhone 5.  I am having a problem receiving text from some of my iphone contacts.  I have found a few suggestions online but haven't been able to fix the problem yet.  Can anyone help?

    Turn off iMessage on the old iPhone.
    Call Apple Support to have your phone number removed from association to the iMessage servers.

  • Not receiving texts from some contacts

    I have the Verizon Juke phone, and have been using the model for years. Recently, I had an issue on a previous Juke device where I was no longer receiving texts from particular contacts, while others were coming through. Everyone was able to receive my texts, however. The problem always happened between me and two or three others at the same time, so it had nothing to do with their personal phone settings. The texts from them to me would get backlogged without being delivered, then arrive en masse a week or two later all at once, and it was always random, without me fiddling around with phone settings or anything of the sort.
    I assumed that it was an issue with that Juke, so I bought a new one and activated it, but it did not fix the problem. I had to call Verizon support, and after about an hour of troubleshooting, they informed me that the only solution was to remove the texting feature from my phone, then reinstate it, ultimately losing every text that was stuck in backlog. Although I lost those texts, my phone regained its functionality. The solution worked for about a month, but recently it has returned, and I would like to have a permanent fix, so that I may always receive texts from all of my contacts. As I mentioned, it is a system issue, and it has nothing to do with others' iPhone settings or anything of the sort. Thanks!

        Hello Kalysm,
    I am so sorry you are experiencing these issues with your phone. I know it's upsetting to not get your message, especially when you've put effort into troubleshooting, and the issue continues. Just to make sure, do you have the area code programmed into your contacts for each of the people you've had issues with? The number should have the area code, but not have a 1 in front of it.
    If you've already confirmed the number is listed correctly, and the problem is persisting, our Technical Support team can file a network ticket to get this issue resolved once and for all. They can be reached at 800-922-0204.
    Thank you,

  • Can receive texts from some phones but they never get my return text.

    Brand new replacement iphone 4S for duplicate issue - can text other iphones and receive texts but NON-iphones cannot receive any texts from my iphone (I can receive their texts, though).  Has anyone else had this problem? 

    You can't send texts to other phones with iMessage, it only sends and/or receives from other iOS devices. If you want to send text to others phones (other than an iPhone to iTouch), get the third-party app textPlus Free Text + Calls so you can send and received texts from other people.
    Hope this helps.

  • TS2755 Remove yourself from specific group message, not all group messages?

    How do you block or stop receiving a group message from a specific thread of people, without disabling all group messaging?  I got put on a thread of 10 people and can't stop receiving all the messages.  I'd still like to keep group messaging enabled though as there are other group messages I use. 
    Thanks

    As a recipient in the thread, you have no control about receiving messages. The person that starts the thread is the only one in control, as they add people to the post. You need to ask all of the people in the thread to delete the thread and use a different one, and ask the starter not to add you to a group message.

  • Friends Receiving Texts from Me I Did NOT Send

    Apparently over the past week my friends have been getting a strange poem texted from my number that I did not send them, the text does not appear on my iPhone 4S either, the text says:
    "because i've taken upon the challenge
    to write a book this month
    chup and i have resorted to the one
    thing we avoid like a mortal enemy:
    a schedule.
    each hour is designated as a workspace
    each day has an ample to do list
    we're dedicated to accomplishing
    the work.
    with my time allotted out
    and not much for wiggle room
    i am surprised to find how much more
    i get done in a day.
    yesterday i wrote,
    i cooked
    i worked
    i cleaned
    i fed the baby
    (interspersing)
    i napped
    i read books to the children
    and just before sunset
    we hiked the dusty
    shoreline trail.
    it makes me wonder
    if having a schedule gives me
    so much more time,
    will my second mortal enemy
    (a budget)
    give me
    more
    money?
    thanks Page and dog Dixie for the beautiful evening on the trail.
    this month I've decided to write a book while simultaneously breastfeeding my baby and battling the postpartum blues. should be a blast. will i get it done?
    stay tuned . . "
    Pretty strange....thanks in advance for any help.

    We will need more information to be able to assist you.
    These message yoy are receiving are probably just a particular type of spam.  However it is also possible (unlikely) that your email account is being used to send spam, and that these are the bounce messages.
    To tell the difference, you need to look at the email headers.  Open the message, then go to the View menu and select Message -> All Headers.
    Select the text and post it back here (remembering to obscure your own email address first).
    Cheers,
    Rodney

  • My android phone is not receiving texts from some iphone users

    I have recently changed my phone from iphone to an android, however iphone users are unable to text me, i have turned my imessage off from my phone and i am still unable to receive messages, does this take time to work..
    Thank you

    You did it from your iPhone?
    If yes, be sure you friends are acttually sending messages tou youer MOBILE NUMBER, not other contacts like email that were possible with iMessage.

  • My phone doesn't receive incoming call as well as not receiving texts from some number.  Anyone have any idea why?

    It's a new replacement phone that had a number ported from T-Mobile.

    You ported in and replaced the phone a couple days ago?  Is the replacement phone a Verizon branded phone?  Is it FULLY compatible or partially compatible with Verizon?  Did you get a new SIM card?  Did the store not offer to make sure the phone worked before you left or was this just a do it yourself carrier change?

  • Not receiving texts from a Galaxy 4 mini on US Cellular provider network, but I get all other texts.

    I am not receiving texts from a friend who owns a Galaxy 4 mini on US Cellular provider network, but I receive all other texts from other phones and other providers. She has never owned any Apple products, including an Apple iPhone. Other people she texts with receive her texts fine.
    Any ideas what might be causing this? 

        Hi xg33kx,
    That is definitely an unusual situation. I'm sure it's frustrating that it isn't working when you need it. Do either of you have trouble with texting anyone else? Try turning off Wi-Fi on both devices, and see if the problem persists or continues when using only the mobile network. Please keep us updated with this situation so we can help to resolve!
    Thank you,

    Have you contacted your carrier to make sure there's no issues with your account?

  • Recently started not receiving texts from one person - AT&T user, also HTC One

    I recently started not receiving texts from one person. He also has an HTC One (older model) but has AT&T as his provider. We were texting back and forth last Friday morning (11/8) and then he called me and ever since then I have not received a single text he has sent. He is receiving all of mine and we can receive phone calls back and forth, but his text messages are not coming through. We have both tried restarting our phones and I have also tried deleting him as a contact and recreating it however nothing works. I checked to make sure he was not blocked (which I knew wasn't the case since I could receive phone calls from him as well), and even tried turning the "block contact" on and back off. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Right now we are using work arounds with google-talk and facebook messenger but it's very frustrated for me to not receive any of the texts that his phone is saying I am receiving.
    It had started sporadically over the past few weeks where I would miss a text from him every once in awhile, but now I am receiving nothing. He is the only one that I am having this issue with as I have texted back and forth with multiple others the past few days with no issues.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Hi!  I'm also having the same problem.  I have an iphone 5 & one person (who also has an iphone 5 but has AT&T as a provider).  We had been able to send & receive phone calls & texts until mid-November.  Now, we can both give & receive phone calls from each other and she receives my texts, however, I DON"T receive hers. In fact, if I'm in a group text message with her,  I don't receive any of the texts  that include her, even though I can give/receive texts individually from the others in the group message. The other two in the group message CAN receive both her texts & mine. This is so strange - I was left out of a whole thread of text messages & none of us knew it.  They thought they were including me (nothing bounced back) & I didn't know I wasn't receiving them. Since her texting works with both of the others, I'm concluding the problem must be with my phone.  Do I have an incorrect setting?  I'm not sure what could have happened.  PLEASE help! 

  • Blackberry 8530 not receiving texts from at&t customers

    As of monday, i can no longer receive texts from people wih at&t, yet they can get my texts. i have tried resetting my blackberry several times as well as updating my roaming capabilities by dialing *228

    no one knew why i couldn't get my messages from the pop server at att/yahoo into my mail on my mac. there were no answered questions to the support topic why can i see mail activity....messages on the server, but not coming into the mail box? sending is fine, but for some reason, it suddenly stopped 3 days ago and for 3 days i searched for a fix. the only way i found this was a mail access error on the web mail thru att.yahoo where my messages showed up (they were also showing up on the i phone, not the mac)...had to verify the email....and while waiting, i found the att yahoo help page that cleared the whole problem
    not removing files and putting them back in while opening and shutting mac....all the ports and ssls were checked and correct
    apparently you have to clean your cache
    totally all att's fault
