Since the iOS7 upgrade my iMessages don't work all the time.

Since the iOS7 upgrade my iMessages don't work all the time. The will work for for a few days, but then all of a sudden they stop working. They are still activated in settings, but not sending. If I turn on and off my phone they work again for a while and then stop again. I'm not sure if turning off and on my phone again is re-activating the iMessages which is why they start to work again for a while. But it's a pain having to turn off and on my phone each time, and when sending an iMessage not knowing whether it's going to send this time or not is a bigger pain. Also everytime I turn off and on my phone (which i think is re-activating the iMessages) a text is sent to the following UK number: +447786205094 - so it's costing me each time!
Is there a fix for this?

Turning off and back on or hard reset seems to work for a day or two. After resetting I am occasionally losing messages that were there before reset. In addition, I have had 3 messages that I received a notification for when they came in but go into messages and not there. Message incon still shows 3 unread messages but when I open messages I have no unread messages??? Power on-off or hard reset does not seem to fix this. At least a reset gets imessages working again. Hope fix is out soon. This is a PIA.

Imessage don't work with ita tim

My operator say that with no credit i can't use imessage. Its normal?

If you are trying to use iMessage without a wifi conection, then yes, as you have exhausted all of your credit (data or voice). iMessage needs an internet connection to work

My iMessages don't work since updating. It says the Messages database is being upgraded, please wait while it finishes or Quit Messages and relaunch it later. How do I get them working again?

My iMessages don't work since updating. It says the Messages database is being upgraded, please wait while it finishes or Quit Messages and relaunch it later. How do I get them working again?

Back up all data.
Quit Messages if it’s running. Force quit if necessary. Relaunch it and test after each of the following steps. If the problem isn't resolved, quit again and go on to the next step.
Step 1
Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain.
From the Category list in the lower left corner of the window, select My Certificates. Look carefully at the list of certificates in the right side of the window. If any of them is marked with a red "X" as expired or invalid, delete it. Also delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name, whether valid or not.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ Certificates
There are three menus in the window. Change the selection in the top two to Best attempt, and in the bottom one to CRL.
Log out and log back in.
Step 2
Hold down the option key and select
          Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
          Containers/com.apple.corerecents.recentsd
          Caches/com.apple.Messages
          Caches/com.apple.imfoundation.IMRemoteURLConnectionAgent
          Containers/com.apple.iChat
          Containers/com.apple.soagent
          IdentityServices
Leave the Library folder open. Log out and log back in.
Step 3
Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
          Messages
Note: you are not moving the Messages application. You’re moving a folder named “Messages.”
If Messages now works, delete the Messages folder on the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Messages again. Put back the folder you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place.
Step 4
In the Preferences subfolder, there may be several files having names that begin with any of the following strings:
          com.apple.iChat
          com.apple.ids
          com.apple.imdsmsrecordstore
          com.apple.imessage
          com.apple.imservice
Move them all to the Desktop. There may also be a file with the name "com.apple.imagent.plist". Move that to the Trash.
Also in the Preferences folder, there's a subfolder named "ByHost". Open it and do the same thing.
Log out and log back in. Test again. This time Messages should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. You may be able to put back some of the files you moved to the Desktop in this step. Relaunch and test after each one. Eventually you should find one or more that causes Messages to malfunction. Delete those files and recreate whatever settings they contained.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Messages again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were. You don’t need to replace the items you moved to the Trash. Stop here and post your results.
If you later decide that you don’t like the results of Steps 3 and 4, you can undo them completely by quitting Messages and restoring the items you deleted in those steps from your backup.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
It might also be a good idea to contact Square for assistance.

Serious Malfunction with Curve 9220 since the time it has been bought

Had bought a blackberry curve 9220 in March 2013. Since the time it has been bought, there were network related issues.
In October, this phone got switched off by its own too. FInally after showng up at the service center they got this fixed.
Within a month, the trackpad started to deviate and stopped moving up and down.
Once this error was reported and shown at the service center, I was asked to pay 10000.
This is sheer malfunction and for no reason I have been asked to pay an amount which is more than the cost of the phone itself.
Can someone please reply to this and check into the issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Ratnesh

Help help please... I'm running Photoshop CS, on a Windows XP machine. After re-booting the machine after an unexpected power failure I have been told that the "Configuration appears to have changed since the time this product was activated. To continue using this product I must re-activate it". BUT the activation link informs me that they no longer support the product (neither online nor telephonically). So how can I re-activate this software?

Since upgrade my ringtones don't work

ringtones don't work on my iPhone since upgrade. It shows them on my contacts, but I get normal ring when I get a call.

hello, make sure your ringtones are still in your itunes library under the "ringtones" area.
Then if they are in your library, try dragging them again to your phone... especially if you are missing you music too!
That should fix it!
For some reason, some of the music/ringtones ddn't make it on the upgrade of iOS 5.
Good luck!

Updated my Iphone 4s to iOS7 and now imessages won't work

After updating my phone my imessages aren't working (one of the many problems caused by the update). I've tried going under settings to turn on the imessages and logged in with my apple ID but it says it says "iMessage Activation: Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."

I have had the same problem since updating
However I also have no facetime, and every time I use an app I get a message asking me to review the icloud terms and condition. Would happily do this but all it does is take me to a blank page. Apple support suggested resetting everything via settings, but icloud, facetime and imessaging are"greyed out".
any suggestions anyone?

IPhone 5- uploaded 7.1.2 now iMessages don't work!! Help!!!

I did the new download 7.1.2 and my iMessages don't go through and no one can receive them!! I tried restarting my phone and turning off for a couple hours and nothing works!!!! I still have wifi which works and my apple id works on the apple site but I can't sign in with my Apple ID on the iMessage page!! What can I do!? I don't feel like waiting forever for the next update!!! Please help and get this fixed!!!! And my FaceTime doesn't work!!!

iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
You can sign out of imesssage and facetime and wait a few seconds and retry again on both. Or sign out and restart phone and sign back into both.
Have you tried to do a hard rest? Holding power and home till the phone restarts and release after seeing the apple logo.
You can also try reset your network connection by Settings>General>Reset>Reset network Settings
If it still fails, reset everything by Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings

Since FP2.5 (XI3.1) Dashboards don't work.

Hi,
Since installing FP2.5 on our Dev server dashboards don't work. I have created PMUser and set it in the InitConfig.properties in Program Files\Business Objects\Dashboard and Analytics 12.0 but when we try to start it or try to set the password in preferences we get the following error:-
Servlet Engine Exception: Cannot read \InitConfig.properties
Something else I have noticed is that we also have a Program Files\Business Objects\Performance Management 12.0 which is empty. Is this normal or is there another issue here??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
John

Hi,
I actually resolved the issue. The problem was that there was no af.configdir parameter set in %HOME%\Tomcat\webapps\PerformanceManagement\WEB-INF\web.xml
Please check your files and add your path. For example:
[context-param]
[param-name]af.configdir[/param-name]
[param-value]c:\local_path_for_Tomcat\[/param-value]
Then you just restart Tomcat.
I hope this helps.
John
