Share contact by message not working

Just got an iphone 5.  I am trying to share some contacts by message.
When I tap share contact and select message as the method to share, nothing happens.  The message app does not launch or anything.
Message is setup and working otherwise.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Nevermind. A reset did the trick.

  • Share photos by email not working. Brings up grayed out check box? Want to share photos thru Entourage.

    Share photos by email not working in Photos Version 1.0 (209.52.0) on a Macbook Pro 17" Yosemite 10.10.3.  Brings up grayed out check box? Want to share photos thru  MS Entourage for Mac 2008 Ver. 12.3.6  Thanks!

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

  • IOS Group Messaging not working when Android phones are involved

    Group Messaging not working for me when there are both Iphones and Androids involved. iPhones still using iOS 7 don't seem to be having problems leading me to believe this is an iOS 8 problem. Is there a workaround for this yet, or is this a legitimate bug fix that Apple will have to address?

    Hey geoff_zen,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you arr having trouble with group messages. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

    Bug: #2621264 Small messages not working with NIO-HTTP endpoints in LCSD/trunk.
    QA: Yes
    Doc: No
    Checkintests: Pass
    Details: This is the BlazeDS side of the fix. This wasn't a regression, it probably never worked correctly. So, in the scenario where there's a Producer and a Consumer, and Producer sends a message for the Consumer, there are 2 messages from the server. The ACK message for Producer's send, and the actual message Consumer receives. I found that the ACK message was in small form, but the actual message was not in streaming messages. This was because we never really tried to convert streamed messages into small messages before.

  • HT5012 Update my iPad to ios7.1 and messaging not working  .......suggestions?

    Updated my iPad Air to ios7.1. Messaging not working. Suggestions????

    What happens when you try? Getting an error message?
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My 'contact' form is not working.  When I send a test contact it returns to my adobe email account this: "Contact Form" has a new form submission.

    My 'contact' form is not working.  When I send a test contact it returns to my adobe email account this:
    "Contact Form" has a new form submission.

    What exactly is not working ? As you have mentioned form submission notification is received in your email account so form process is working I believe but you want the notifications to go to another email account I think.
    Have you added the email address in "Email to" field in form options ? If yes and then also you are not receiving the form , then please provide me the site url and post a screenshot or form with option box open.
    Thanks,

  • E7 Nokia Messaging not working after anna update

    hi
    nokia messaging not working after anna update. when i
    -choose provider (hotmail/gmail/yahoo...etc)
    -enter username & password
    -click OK to T&C
    -get error message: "cannot enable this service on the device"
    any ideas?

    I'm having a similar issue. It appears to only impact Hotmail accounts. For me though, this happened without updating the OS. The email client is simply failing to connect to the Hotmail interface. Only two possibilities, either Microsoft changed something on the email gateway or Nokia changed something on their end. Either way, it's not working and has been out of commission for the past week. If this is how corporate friends get along, I'd hate to see what happens in a adversarial relationship.

  • VZ Contact Transfer will not work on Wi-Fi; Synch with iTunes sets up mail

    VZ Contact Transfer goes into a loop with Verizon iPhone connected to your Wi-Fi and does not work.
    Your wi-fi network will come up right after registering VZ iPhone. You could wait until later to allow it to connect.
    Otherwise, disconnect router to force iPhone onto Verizon 3G network and proceed. If you click the change phone number button, it will get you a new access code to your old Verizon contacts from Verizon back up. (Back up before signing up on iPhone)
    Took me hours of fooling around to learn this on another bulletin board.
    Also after hours of fooling around to set up mail, synched iPhone thru iTunes to mail, calendar, etc and the email accounts set themselves up.
    Hope this saves you some time
    Enjoy!

    I don't have an answer for you but from my experience iOS WiFi syncing has always been a hit and miss affair (more miss than hit I'm afraid). I have gotten to the stage where I rarely use the WiFi sync. It is just quicker, easier and much less stressful to use the USB cable. I am having the same issues with all the iOS devices in our family which includes various models of iPhone, iPad and an iPod Touch and have been having them since WiFi syncing was introduced (in iOS5 ???). And then I have not even mentioned my favorite iTunes syncing messages: "Waiting for items to copy" and "Waiting for changes to be applied"!
    iTunes is always extremely quick and eager to pick up the devices but as soon as I click on sync it shows "Looking for iDevice" and then the device disappears. I have found that initiating the sync from the Settings app on the device prevents this issue.
    It does however seem as if it is worse with Windows 7. I did not have so many issues with my previous Windows Vista PC.
    Sorry I cannot be of any help.

  • Text Messaging Not Working

    Salient points:
    I'm using a brand new Droid Pro. This phone was provided by ProtectCell after my two-month-old phone experienced a cracked display. It is new, not factory refurbished. My service was working perfectly on my imperfect other phone. (Texts were being received and sent with no problems, it was reading them that was a problem, due to the faulty display.) I took the new phone to the Verizon Wireless store to have it activated and my contacts transferred. I have not been able to send or receive text messages on the new phone. I tried restarting the phone, then removing the battery, and when those didn't work I called customer service and was told there were no network issues in the area, and that my plan correctly showed unlimited texting. They were unable to transfer me to Technical Support because I had no other device on which to speak while troubleshooting. I was advised to try *228 in case of a programming error. That didn't work. I have made sure that my phone is running the most recent updates. I've even downloaded Handcent in case it was an issue with the included software, but it seems SMS is not working at all on this phone. I've verified that people are unable to send text messages to me, and that I am still able to call out and receive calls, so I know that the SMS is the only affected service. I don't know what else to try, or what I have missed, or if my wonderful new replacement phone is faulty out of the gate. Please help, before I tear out my hair.

    Lothruin, I am sorry your text messaging isn't working. I understand how frustrating this is and would like to assist you as best as I can. From  your post, I show you have performed a lot of the trouble shooting steps we would have performed. The last step would be to ensure your provisioned correctly on  your account for text messaging. This will involve speaking with you on an alternate phone. YOu may send me a private message with your name a alternate contact number to discuss and trouble-shoot your issue in more detail.

  • Message not working with gtalk on Mac in office network, but Gtalk is working in the same network on Windows machine

    I was using Windows machine at my workplace (Office network), gtalk used to work absolutely fine.
    Now I started using, Mac everything is working fine but my Gtalk account configured in Message is not working.
    Gtalk is working fine as soon a connect to my home network.
    I have tried configuring Nimbuzz and Psi , but of no use.
    Please suggest.

    Ok, after 40 minutes on the phone with the most patient and helpful Apple tech ever, the problem was fixed. Still not sure what did it though. Basically what I did was this-
    Completely uninstalled iTunes, details here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224
    I even removed all files associated with iTunes, which is further down the same page. Don't worry, you won't have to delete your music.
    Then, I emptied the Trash and restarted the machine. I then checked for updates for every single App on my machine, upgraded to 10.6.4, and downloaded the iPhone SDK - not sure how this helped but anyway....
    Then I restarted the machine again.
    I then verified and repaired all permissions through the Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility)
    Restarted the machine...again.
    I then downloaded the latest version of iTunes and installed it...and it worked.
    Now, at this stage I was skeptical as anyone who has read my first post will know, restarted the machine previously left me back at the start. Well, I just restarted the machine and all seems good.
    So, I'm not sure (neither was the tech actually hehe) which step specifically fixed the problem, so you might want to try them all.
    If this doesn't fix your problem, my heart goes out to you! Perhaps try calling tech support-

  • SMS in Yosemite messages not working. "Not registered with iMessage"

    Just updated today to Yosemite. Macbook Pro 2013 (current retail model) with upgraded RAM and flash storage. iPhone 6 running 8.0.2 with recent back up to iCloud.
    When sending iMessages to my normal iMessage contacts, everything is ok. This update should also allow for continuity with SMS, that they show up as Messages in the same application. I cannot get any messages which are not iMessages to send out. Each time I attempt this, I get the error "User is not registered with iMessage." Which, yes, duh. That's the point. I've sent and received SMS messages on my phone with out error, but still have not been able to initiate or respond on my Mac with Messages. My contact card only has the same phone number which is registered to the same iCloud account for both the phone and the Mac.
    I've restarted the phone and logged in and out of iMessage in hopes of a refresh. I'm out of ideas as to how to get them to sync up, or whatever it is they need to do.
    Is there a step that I am missing? It should, in theory, just work, but I can't find any messages on this. Any guesses?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    It seems that some people are experiencing issues with Logging in fully to the iMessages Servers from their Mac.
    There is one Error Messages that is seen that is known to be very similar.
    This Error can only be fixed by Contacting Support.
    What is does prove though is the The Apple ID in use can be rejected on a  Device by device basis, i.e. it will work on a iOS device or even another Mac but not on one particular one.
    Sometimes deleting the Keychain item for the iMessages Login can help (then Restarting the app)
    It is called IDS: yourApple ID- Auth Token
    If deleting this does not work try repairing the Keychain.
    After that I would contact Apple Support. You may have to speak to a Level 2 person as Level 1 people try to fit everyone into Software or hardware issues and charge for Out of time Apple Care.
    Fixing and Apple ID/Account is free.

  • Frustrated with Messages not working.

    I am able to launch my messages every once in a while and it works properly. For the most part when I launch my messages, it will not show my previous messages like it should it automatically pops up to a new message. Which it will allow you to select who you would like to send the message to and you can type the message but you can not send. The option is greyed out. I have contacted my carrier, I have reset my phone. I just want my messages to work. Over 75% of the time I do not ever receive messages that have been sent to me and the person I am sending the messages to usually don't receive them. If they do it might be hours later. I am running iOS 7.03 but the issue started well before I updated and it is still happening.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    I too am very ****** off about this as well.  I waited for this wonderful update 7.03 to fix my texting problem and it did nothing.  I had just gotten this new iphone less than a month ago and already want to throw it and Apple into a river.   I never had these issues with my Andriod.  How can my husband have the exact same phone have the same settings and be at the same update and his works fine.  SERIOUSLY!!!  I had no issues until I downloaded 7.02 which was my biggest mistake ever.  I can send my husband text messages fine and they go through.  I try sending my parents one who have Sprint and needless to say they do not get my text messages.  Yet my husband can.  I have never been so upset especially since I sat here waiting for this new update to go through only to find out it doesn't work.  So my plan is to take it in wipe the phone and start from scratch otherwise this phone is going in the trash and I will get a new phone that works.  Unless someone from Apple has any wonderful suggestiions they would like to tell me to do.  (oh wait don't think I want any help from them as they obviously can't fix a simple text problem) so anyone else who can help will be greatly appreciate.
