Send and Receive SMS messages from US to South Kor...

I want to be able to receive and send SMS messages from my skype to my friend's cell phone in Korea
When I send it they receive it, but they can't respond it back to me because it is an international text.
Is there anyway that I can buy a Korean online number when I'm living in US?
and with that number will I be able to talk and send/receive messages with my friend?

@ sberman -Hi-I have my settings as you described and I do have a text msg. plan with At&T. I'm still puzzled, however; I had the same plan with he former phone-the ancient 3Gs and with it, I was able to send/receive text, photos, etc. to non-Iphone users via WiFi as long as I was home and within distance of the connection. I did not have to have my cell data "on" in order to send/receive anything. Everything transmitted through WiFi-and did not impact my  charges or cell data limits.. I know I must use the cell data ON when I'm away, but don't understand why/how I can't do the same as before I upgraded to the 5c. Admittedly, I am certainly NOT in the stratospheric league as so many phone experts here-I do make the attempt to understand, though..
I read on one of the numerous help/answer sites that apparently someone else had registered the same complaint with Apple and now has a pending lawsuit-and hoping to get class-action status on the issue. I'm fairly sure this is the same-although I cannot be 100% certain given my lack of expertise.
I certainly appreciate your rapid response-as a newbie to these communities, I didn't expect any answers to my questions so quickly.Thanks for taking the time to post-have a great weekend.

  • How can I send and receive a message from  a queue using standalone program

    Hi,
    I want to write a standalone Java program which has to post a message to a queue and receive a message from a queue thats specified as a replyto queue.I want to have my application to be completely standalone without the need of a Application server.What all the Jars do I need to include in the application.My aim is to have the application standalone and portable so that the application runs on any machine that has a JRE.
    Thanks in advance,
    Prathima

    Hi,
    You can get quite simple standalone MQ Java programs from this site http://www.capitalware.biz/mq_code_java.html.
    Also regarding the jars required for your application depends on the API being used. If you use MQI API few jars are required and if you decide to use JMS API you'll require few other jars. But you got to either install Websphere MQ Java Client, which will copy the jars to the respective location, or you can choose to copy the jars from some other machine manually.
    Eventually, all the jars related to MQI and JMS API will reside under /usr/mqm/java/lib/ or /var/mqm/java/lib/ UNIX Environment. And in case of WINTEL, you should find the jars under C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\Java\lib.
    Trust it clarifies...

  • I have a new iPhone 5 version 8.1 - incoming caller ID does not work and I cannot send or receive SMS messages

    I have a new iPhone 5 version 8.1 - incoming caller ID does not work and I cannot send or receive SMS messages. ISP says everything is active on their side. I have just upgraded from Samsung with the same phone number and services. Help?

  • Not able to send or receive SMS messages on iMessage on mac

    When I first updated to Yosemite the new SMS feature on iMessage was working. I had to replace my home button and screen on my iPhone 5s and after that it stopped working. I am not sure if having that repair done on my phone has anything to do with my above problem. Please help

    Hi Ralph,
    Thank you for your reply.
    Ok, I will try to explain myself better.
    When I say:
    - Messages, I am talking about the software to send and receive iMessages and SMS.
    - iMessage, is the blue bubble
    - SMS is the green bubble
    Facetime is because if someones callsme and I do not answer quickly on iPhone, and the Macs are using the same network as iPhone, the VoiceCall pops ups and rings, and usually I activate the Facetime option (when is a iPhone). Sorry about this confusion.
    So basically, a week ago, I could send and receive SMS, iMessage on my Macs to/from anyone.
    Now, I just can send iMessages (blue bubbles with blue name/contact on top [TO:]) and I can't send SMS (text messages, green bubble), I receive error (red exclamation point) and the name/contacts on top [To:] are red.
    And as I told, I think it might be because of the new iOS update with iTunes recovery. Because it is the only similar thing I can relate with "loyalchiver" (when an iPhone goes to repair, the restore it.) That's why I tried signout/in in all Macs, but still not working.
    About the Text Forwarding function, I had searched and what I was getting was to go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding, but this last option didn't appear, so I thought this was because the pages/foruns that I was reading was for the version 8.1 and not 8.1.1 (Apple could change it, I don't know). But while I was trying to put this working, I had rebooted some where and when I saw your reply, I went again there, and I had the Text Message Forwarding option, so all I had to do was activating it. Thank you!
    To "labelchiver", I am not sure how I did it, but try this:
    1. close all applications running on background.
    2. reboot your iphone.
    3. go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding .
    4. If you can enter there and your mac is linked, unlink it and link it again.
    5. Hope it works for you
    Once again, thank you for your help and I apologize for my  confusions about the labels. Cheers!

  • Is there a way to send and receive SMS on multiple cellular devices without using iMessage?

    I currently own a cellular iPad mini and an iPhone 4s and would like SMS to be the same on both devices as well as my desktop.
    After many months of struggling with iMessage, I decided to turn it off entirely.  I discovered that my best friend did not receive dozens of my texts over the span of a few months (I compared our message history side by side).  Seems like it had something to do with traveling in and out of wifi zones or possibly conflicts between our two carriers, ATT and Verizon.  Regardless, I am not willing to dive into iMessage fully until this gets sorted out.  Further, SMS is the standard message format for everyone outside of the Apple sphere, and I do not feel comfortable lumping them together into one app.  If I decide to switch to Android, will all of my contacts with iPhones continue sending me iMessages?
    Thank you for your help!

    Is there a way to send and receive SMS on multiple cellular devices without using iMessage?
    Search the iTunes App Store for any 3rd party SMS apps that may be available.
    If I decide to switch to Android, will all of my contacts with iPhones continue sending me iMessages?
    Android phones don't receive iMessages, they can recieve SMS messages sent through the iOS Messages app. The app that your contacts choose to use to send you messages is completely up to them.

  • HT1355 Can you send and receive text messages in airplane mode?

    Can you send and receive text messages while in airplane mode?

    No. Regular SMS's require a cellular connection. However, iMessage will work in Airplane Mode, as all that requires is an Internet connection. You can turn WiFi back on while in Airplane Mode.

  • I am using systec usbmodule1 to send and receive CAN messages , is any one have tried this in labview?, if yes can you send me the code thanks

    i am using systec usbmodule1 to send and receive CAN messages , is any one have tried this in labview?, if yes can you send me the code
    thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hey,
     All of our CAN drivers have been written for National Instruments' CAN hardware (referenced here : http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E2C6ED025C7​98C5586256F4E00520448 ). Thus, you will have to code all your communication manually, unless Systec provides a LabVIEW driver. There might be various dll files that Systec provides for communication, which you will be able to access through LabVIEW. Take a look at the Call Library Function Node, which can be found from the Functions Palette under Connectivity -> Libraries & Executables. Here you can call a dll file, and also the individual functions within that dll.
    I would suggest posting your question either to the LabVIEW forum, as previously mentioned, or to the CAN forum found here : http://forums.ni.com/ni/board?board.id=30

    Why am I no longer able to send or receive text messages from my Droid RAZR MAXX HD? 

        @slotjan49
    I want to ensure you're able to stay connected using your Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD!  When did this problem begin?  In what zip code are you experiencing this?  Do you get an error message when attempting to send a text?  Are you using a downloaded text messaging application or are you using the preinstalled text messaging application?
    Please try removing and reinserting the SIM Card http://vz.to/1jxFQVZ and retesting.  Please let me know so that I can further assist.  Thanks!

  • I can't send or receive text messages from non iphone users

    I can't send or receive text messages from non iphone users

    Under Settings - Messages, do it state Sens SMS ON? Should be (this applies to imessage but just in case).
    Same area, MMS Messaging is on? Should be.
    If all else fails, go into Settings General Reset - Reset Network Settings (this will lose WiFi info but fixes a lot of messaging errors).

  • Send and receive SMS

    Hello!
    Please, can anyone tell me how can I create an application which send and receive SMS at the same time.
    I�ve got an GSM modem. This application must run under Linux. I did it with Windows 98 and it ran fine, but when I try run it under linux I only can send or receive, but not both. I think this is because there are problems with threats ( I'm not sure ), when I created a ServerSocket to accept the socket connection to send messages.

    To send and recv on the same pipe, I suggest a thread to handle the socket... as you are doing in your code, then create a thread reader and writer for the I/O ( one for input, one for output ). Run your thread and buffer commands/messages/whatever to a byteoutput stream, then when the thread wakes up, it reads the buffer and writes the bytes to a dataoutput stream. The reader will work the same way but you only need to buffer for each command. Of course there are little gotchas along the way, but it's fun programming....

  • Why can't I send and receive text messages on my new 5c ?

    Why can't I send and receive text messages on my new 5c ?
    I can send imessages. I can sometimes send texts. But I cannot ever send picture texts. and I am not receiving texts.

        Antny,
    Yikes, this is no bueno let's get these messages back up and flowing. Are you able to send out regular text messages ok? Ensure your Picture Messages feature is turned on, follow these steps: Settings>Messages>MMS Messaging. Also ensure Send as SMS is turned on as well. If these features are turned on then try this: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings then retest. Keep us posted please.

  • Problem I-message? I can't send and receive the messages.

    from last Sunday I have a problem with I-message. It's impossible to send and receive the messages. what's the problem?

    I assume you have tried all of the troubleshooting here?
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    It would also help to head to Settings -> General -> Date & Time and make sure it is set to Automatic.  You could also try using Google's DNS servers as doing so has resolved the issue for a number of users.  Head to Settings -> Wi-Fi and tap the > next to the network you are connected to.  Scroll down to the DNS fields and enter in8.8.8.8and 8.8.4.4.

  • Sending and receiving ebXML messages

    Dear all,
    I have to admit, I'm a bit confused over the question how ebXML and Java work together. As far as I've managed to understand so far, there are at least several ways to send and receive ebXML messages in java (particularly, I'm interested in asyncronious messaging). The ways include:
    SAAJ - SOAP is the basis for ebXML. So, possibly, I can create ebXML messages manually using this library. But I'd rather not, ebMS must have been implemented already and maybe not even once, so no point to do it again. How do you think?
    JAXM - SUN's library, uses SAAJ to faciliate more "upper-level" messaging. Sounds great, just what I need, but ... No documentation at all! What is the point in sharing the library without supplying usage docs? I've come across some threads here where people are guessing how to do things with JAXM, what does this field mean, what is that function etc. Moreover, there were claimes that JAXM is just a wrong, or even dead, solution for ebXML. Sounds off-putting. Can anyone comment on this?
    Hermes - Good guys from HongKong Uni, open source ebMS implementation. Very good. But no documentation how to setup and use it in free edition. Useless. The docs are provided only if you buy support. No chance to use for academic purpose. (unless you have time to spend xxx hours digging through the sources finding out how did they do this and that...)
    And there are some others, I'm not quite sure about:
    M-Project http://java.sun.com/developer/earlyAccess/mproject/
    Supposed to be there, but was moved somewhere.
    Some implementation from SUN, lost the link for a while, I'll get it soon.
    Could anyone suggest the way to use ebXML messaging, much preferrably using pure java api? I hope to think that JAXM can do much of my needs, but did anyone manage to use it? Or shall I keep searching for anything else?
    Oldbies, share your experience to a newbie, please :) Any advice would be much appreciated, as I'm a bit confused now ...
    Thank you.

    Could anyone recommend where else I could post this question to?
    Thanks.
