Skype Messages won't send

A couple of days ago when I reinstalled Skype for my Mac, I was talking to a friend when suddenly my messages were pending. I did everything, checked my connection, it was fine, closed and reopened Skype, it was the same, uninstalled and reinstalled, same, restarted laptop, the same. It's not my account or anything because it works on my phone so I was hoping someone would be able to help. Messages still aren't sending 4 days later the same messages are pending, and no, they didn't remove/block me because I can talk to them on the Skype app on my phone.

Any feedback on this. This issue has just happened to me. Tried re-starting Mac, I uninstalled and installed skype?? Its happening now on three conversations

I have a brand new iPad newest version. Wifi. The messaging won't send out but I receive messages from others. What is wrong?

I have the newest version of the iPad (3rd generation) with wifi. The messaging won't send out but I'm receiving messages from others when I'm using it. They also come through on my iphone at the same time. But I can't send them out on the iPad. I tried someone's suggestion of changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and that did not work to fix it. What is wrong with this thing? Thank you in advance for your help.

Are you trying to send a message to a cell number or an email address? iPad does MMS, not SMS, meaning it can't send a message to a number. It can send a message to an email address........

Settings -> Messages -> do you have "Send as SMS" ON?
If not, then your messaging app will be restricted solely to Apple's iMessage service, which only works between iOS devices.

Messages won't send files via AIM anymore

I've been using Messages via AIM and iMessage and had no problems sending files or images for years until recently. Now AIM won't send files. There's no error message and I can see the image in the conversation window but the recipient doesn't get the file/image. Also when they try to send to me, I don't get the file/image either. This problem has started just this week.
We have had our broadband upgraded and a new router installed but it's in Modem mode and hooked up to our Airport Time Capsule that runs the wifi.
I've read some posts about port changes, but not sure if this would be the case.
Any help much appreciated.

Hi,
See also AIM Screen Names using @Mac.com or @me.com IDs to end (it is in Mountain Lion's area)
The @mac.com and @me.com name should still work as AIM valid Screen Names.
It is only in iChat up to and including the base version of iChat 6 in Lion.
The Later updated version of iChat 6 should work.
It is because during Lion Apple introduced the double Login to AIM and Apple that allows the app to confirm you can login in with the Apple ID.
Basically unless the app has logged in to Apple with the ID then the AIM server cannot see it.
To certain extent this already was the case in AIM and iChat for @me.com ID once there was no MobileMe server.
All @me.com names that became linked to iCloud IDs get around that by being iCloud IDs.
So... Later versions of iChat 6, Messages 7 in Mountain Lion, Messages 8 in Mavericks and the version in Yosemite (also called version 8) all allow Logins with Apple Issued IDs to the AIM servers.
It does help that you may have "updated" the account yourself along the way - such as Linking an @mac.com to MobileMe when MobileMe came out and again for iCloud.
This may mean that actually you have an Apple ID that has @[email protected] and @icloud.com emails and all those "IDs" works as login names with the same password.

Messages won't send pictures or files.

Hello,
My Messages in Mountain Lion won't send pictures or files (using imessage). It did work for a few days but has now stopped. The strange thing is Messages beta in Lion still works perfectly. I've tried deactivating anf activating account and still no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I've been with the same problem for a couple of days, until finally today Messages simply stopped showing even a the window, so absolute inability to use it.
Considering that reinstalling the operating system is NOT a solution, I searched for something myself.
Pictures are controlled by xpcd, imagent and Messages, and it seems that when the problem arises is because they're using the wrong Apple server.
While this may be solved by Apple in a update (I hope so), in the meantime you can do a workaround (it worked for me on two different machines, and even days old images appeared).
In your Library, there is a folder called Preferences (that is /Users/<your_username>/Library/Preferences). There you should delete com.apple.imagent.plist com.apple.imservice.iMessage.plist and com.apple.imessage.bag.plist, with Messages CLOSED. Then reboot so Messages creates new ones. Also delete all file starting with com.apple.imagent, com.apple.imservice, com.apple.imessage and com.apple.iChat that end in .lock.
If even then it still is not working, deleting all files starting with com.apple.imagent, com.apple.imservice, com.apple.imessage and com.apple.iChat 100% for sure. But when you reboot you'll find you need to input again your login data for iMessage, FaceTime, Yahoo chat, AIM chat, Google Talk and Jabber (if you used them on Messages/iChat).
This is an annoyance, but less than a whole operating system reinstall or losing the functionality.
After all of this is done you should regain the ability to receive photos, send photos and drag&drop photos.

Skype IMs won't send or receive

I use Skype a lot for group conversations. I frequently have about 5 large groups, and also several individual chats running. This has all worked perfectly well until this morning, when suddenly my messages will not send, and I can't receive them. I have version 7.7.80.103, the latest version, and I have already tried deleting the Skype folder in the Application Data. This is also not because the group contacts are offline, as they are not. This is a rather major issue, and I am somewhat alarmed that reports of this very same issue stem all the way back to 2012. This is a major functionality bug, and should be top priority to fix. In the meantime, is there anything I can do to get Skype working again, as I do need to use it.

You'll probably find that 3 will never release any further updates to the software so I'd give up hope on that. Depending on how long you've had it (i.e. whether it's still under warranty), you might want to change the product code to a generic EURO one (Google this!). I've done it successfully on an E71 from 3 and now running v500 software, with the current version of Skype from the Ovi store.
I can't offer much help on your current Skype installation though - I seem to recall it was a 3 branded app which is probably different in some way. Are you able to install a newer version? You could always try Fring too.
Good luck!

You do know that you can only message with other iOS users and that they must register to use Messages on their devices before you can reach them? You cannot text with any other cell phone or an Android device.

Message won't send unless i quit and restart mail

I compose the message and hit send and i get the turning wheel symbol and it just keeps on turning. If I quit mail and then re-start mail, the "out box" messages send immediately. What's going on?

I've tried every possible solution for this problem -- cleared cache, reinstalled Windows, updated Firefox and Flash, even installed the beta 64-bit version of Flash -- NOTHING helps. Since no one seems to have any ideas about this problem, I'm throwing in the towel on Firefox. The problem has never occurred in IE.

Can't create message-won't send

Recently my wife has been unable to create a new message on her TiBook. You click on create message fill in the to and subject and go to the body and you can't input more than 6 characters. It just starting beeping. If you click on send nothing happens. The only thing you can do is save as a draft. You can send web-based email. There is very little mail in her IMAP account so space is not a problem. When I switch users and try it from my account the same thing happens.
I tried it with an external keyboard and no joy. Don't know what else to try. Is it possible to just reinstall Mail?
Ti 1 gig with 1 gig Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I have a fix for this! There is something in your cache that's corrupted.
To fix this, I downloaded MainMenu from VersionTracker ( http://tc.versiontracker.com/product/redir/lid/672564/MainMenu15.zip). I ran the "quick clean" option of "clean system cache". Rebooted the machine. I no longer have any of the problems I had: I can type a new message; I can send a message; I can forward a message.

My messages won't send, then all my messages disappear, I can't make or receive calls, then after a while everything's back to normal? Someone please help

My phone takes forever to send a message, it then after reopening the messages app, will delete all of my texts and iMessages. The app will usually freeze and come up empty with 'create new message'. At the same time it won't let me receive calls, sometimes it will let me make a call but the phone app itself is also then frozen. After 15-45 mins everything will go back to normal and my messages all appear again. I then receive anything that I was sent to me during that time and all my messages then send. I've gone and got an early upgrade from a 4s to a 5s in the hope this would stop and it still hasn't. I heard somewhere that it could be to do with iCloud and it being bugged, would be great if anyone could help

Go through these 4Rs troubleshoots if you haven't done already:
Restart:
1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
2. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
