SMS messages using IOS5

Hi, am reciving text messages with no content. I have reset my phone, turned it off and on but still not working. Help!

If you mean iMessage.... it uses data, so the only charges are for data usage.
If you are roaming and using iMessage, then you will be charged the appropriate rate for roaming data usage.
If on Wi-Fi, there are no charges from the carrier.
Regardless, there are never charges from Apple... you might get clearer answers about charges from the carrier.

  • Retrieving any mobile sms messages using a pc

    I already know it's possible to send text messages to mobile phones using your pc and all, however, is it possible to retrieve the text messages you get on your cell phone via your home computer. I mean, say i left my cell phone at home when on vacation and i wanted to get any text messages i may of recieved, but being i didnt have my phone w/ me, could i use my pc to retrieve them? Is there a program that would make this possible?
    Sorry for the lengthy post.....any insight on this type of sms forwarding would be appreciated,

  • Cannot send sms message using version 7.0.3

    I have checked all of the settings against the User Manual and tried all of the topics in the trouble shooting section of the Apple website.  I have compared the phone settings against another i phone which can send to the specific address.  There are no problems sending an i message.

    My wife and I were having same issue after upgrading to iOS 7.0.3.  I called apple support and they said it was because we were using the same Apple ID for iMessage/FaceTime on both iPhones. I created a new Apple ID (just for iMessage/FaceTime) on my phone and it seems to have fixed my issues. Using original Apple ID on my wife's phone and mms hasn't started functioning for pics yet on that device. iMessage is working fine however. We always turned the email part of iMessage/FaceTime off, so I'm not sure why it started being an issue now. FYI, I was told that iMessage and FaceTime should use same Apple IDs.

  • Skype sends SMS message to a wrong contact

    This is a weird one. When I select one of my relatives which is save as my Skype mobile phone contact and I send her an SMS, the message is not being delivered to her but rather to a different cell phone No which belongs to her husband who is also one of my Skype phone contacts.  I checked their numbers as saved under their profiles and they are both correct.  They are both on the same cell phone network, but have very different numbers and they are even not together on the same family plan or similar. So I'm having real problem comprehending why this is happening. When I send her an SMS message using my phone, it goes normally to her phone. But when I do it via Skype it goes to a wrong recipient but he sees my correct phone number displayed one his phone after receiving the message. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? 

    Nevermind...I actually dug deeper and found the same thread. I tried to delete this one but couldn't find a way to do it.

  • How to retrieve SMS messages

    HOw do you retrieve old SMS messages

    I was dealing with this last week. On a mobile phone, you use an email center number. This is not the same as an SMS message center number. Your carrier may not call it this. Cingular calls it a routing number. Anyway, its a three digit number. For Cingular its 121, on VoiceStream, its 500.
    So, you must set up your phone's SMS client to know that its email center number is xxx. Different on each phone, I suppose. Once done, you start your sms message with an email address, then a space, then your message. Essentially, the carrier will get the message and send it to the email recipient for you.
    Its just the inverse of what you have done. You send email to an address [email protected] and the carrier passes the email to the phone as SMS, right?
    So for your computer to get the SMS message, it just listens to the email box the phone user places in the first part of their sms message (use Java Mail)
    Hope this helps.

  • Color Changes while using Text Messaging on iOS5

    Ever since I updated my iPhone 4 software to the new iOS5 I've notice something a little different with the text messaging.  Some of the text messages are bubbled or highlighted in a light blue while others are the standard green color.  They have all been green but now I'm seeing blue.  Why are some blue and some green?  Can I change to other colors as well?  Just trying to understand the color changes for some people.
    Thanks!
    Gilbert

    Blue messages use iMessage (other iOS 5 devices). Green messages are traditional SMS messages.

  • Using iMessage 8.0 with Mavericks to send sms message to my friend who has an iPhone.  Only allows me to log in under AIM, YAHOO, GOOGLE, or BONJOUR.  I don't want to do any of that.  Just my phone number.  Is this possible?

    Hi,
    The first run of Messages will ask you to enter an Apple ID to "register' with iMessages.
    If you do not do this but open the App and look in Preferences > Accounts then you will see the iMessages account and the Bonjour Account which will not be activated.
    Neither of these two account can be deleted. (even if not being used)
    If you then press the + icon to add you will get the choices you posted.
    To iMessage you need to "register" and Apple ID with the iMessages service.
    As Diane then points out you can link this to your iPhone number.
    This "syncs" (Displays on all devices) the various iMessages sent to either iPhone or Apple ID
    You can then chose  on both iPhone or Mac version how or which ID/Number is going to be used to "Start the conversations from"
    I have my Mac version set to start from my Apple ID and the iPhone from it's number.
    At this moment the Mac version cannot send SMS text messages to an iPhone.
    This is apparently coming with iOS 8 and OS 10.10 (Yosemite)
    An AIM account can send SMS Messages but only to a limited number of USA based phone users on these carriers.
    (Basically you add a phone number with country code +1 as a Buddy to your List)

  • HT4972 how come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube or pinerest app? it keeps giving me a message to use iOS5

    How come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube and pinerest app? i keep getting a message to update to iOS5 if i must use iOS5 how do i update to that one because it just took me 4 hours to figure out how to update to iOS6

    We have read that any apps that use the google map app (removed by ios6) will not work.  We have lost a great camping app for this reason, and have heard that some weather apps are not working either.  The company line we've been given is it's up to the app developer to rewrite their apps.  ***** doesn't it.

  • How to send picture message using J2ME sms APIs?

    Hi,
    I experiment with SMS APIs, i successfully send simple text message. now i want to send picture message, how to send picture message using J2ME APIs.
    please guide me.
    guna.

    I experienced in coding sending and receiving sms in J2ME. Besides, I also esperienced in coding reading a binary file in a applicaition jar. But I never done these both together. Hence Im not sure it works or not. Below is the example to open and read a binary file:
    InputStream oInputStream = getClass().getResourceAsStream( "/picture.png" );
    if(oInputStream == null) {
    //File does not exist;
    throw new Exception("File not found");
    //Read the binary file and copy it to a byte array
    byte[] abyPicture = new byte[oInputStream.available()];
    oInputStream.read(abyPicture );

  • CANNOT send SMS messages with ADDRESS BOOK on POWERBOOK using iPHONE

    I cannot send SMS messages with my address book or dial phone numbers using my Powerbook via the iPHONE.
    Previously, with my Sony Ericson phone, I could do both. It's very useful, when you are at your laptop, to use your computer keyboard to send SMS text messages back and forth rather than using the clumsy small keys on a phone.
    Can someone help?
    Is there something I am missing?

    You are not missing something here and no one here can help you. This is not an included Bluetooth profile with the iPhone at the present time anyway.
    If you purchased your iPhone within the last 14 days, you can return it for credit less a 10% restocking fee and if not, here is Apple's feedback link for the iPhone.

  • Force Messages using Applescript to use SMS Continuity for certain users

    Hi,
    I wrote an app in applescript to send iMessages to contacts using the line
    tell "Messages" to send msg to theBuddy
    where 'msg' is the content of the message, and theBuddy is either a contact's name or phone number.
    Because Yosemite was just released, I now want to integrate functionality into my app to send messages to users who do not have iMessage. However, when I put users' name in "theBuddy," the Messages app forcibly sends an iMessage to that user and ultimately fails to send. Is there a way in applescript to force Messages to send sms messages instead?
    Thanks,
    Nolan

    Hi Steve,
    Have you tried dealing with the return value from your macro? If you are invoking the MsgBox function in your test macro, you may need to allow the return value from MsgBox to pass thru back to AS. Something like :
    set MyRetCode to run VB macro "Macintosh HD:Users:xxx:Desktop:test.xls!test"
    (Note unless you've changed the hard drive name to "hard drive", the default boot drive name will probably be "Macintosh HD". Case does matter here)
    I also suspect you'll need to have Entourage up as well in the full case of running a macro in Entourage from Excel (or the other way around). Hence, the command ActivateMicrosoftApp in the Excel dictionary may also be useful.
    Second, you can have a macro, in a startup template, in Entourage call a macro in a startup template in Excel to accomplish what you want without going into AppleScript at all. This latter, VB-only, method will require a "Reference", as it's called in VBA, to be added to the TemplateProject in Entourage that points to the Excel macro you want to fire off. The added benefit of this latter method is that you will have access to the full range of VBA commands/options, rather than the smaller dictionary available in AS.

  • IPhone  4s sms/text message tone is double when receiving a message, using tri-tone?

    When I am reciving a text message (using the tri-tone for the text tone), it sounds like its doubled tone....

    I just discovered that it's related to iMessage. If you have the e-mail sound turned on in settings-sounds-new mail, it give you one tone for the iMessage and the second tone because you are receiving the iMessage at your e-mail address. This seems to me like it's a bug and that they should only give one tone for an iMessage and still allow us to receive tones for e-mails. Hopefully it'll be fixed in the next iOS release! :) As a workardoun until then, if you turn off the email sound, you'll only get one tone for a message, but you won't get any e-mail tones.

  • How to recover deleted sms text messages using iMessage.

    I accidently deleted an entire text conversation on my iPhone, and would like to recover it.  I understand I can restore a backup from iCloud but the last back I made was over 6 months ago and I do not want to lose the last 6 months of data when i back up the whole phone. But i noticed that in iMessage (on my macbook air) the entire conversation I want to restore is still there. Does anyone know of a way to either....
    1. Restore the iPhone SMS conversation using the iMessage version  or
    2. Restore only SMS conversations with iCloud without replacing the rest of the phone data
    thanks.

    1. no
    2. restoring from a backup is all or nothing.
