  • HondaLink Apps not working in iOS8, was working in iOS7

    HondaLink Apps not working in iOS8, was working in iOS7.  Any fix?

    Easy fix.  Rename your iPhone so that the word "iPhone" is not part of the name.
    Hondalink will immediately recognize the device.  Just spoke with Honda customer service and this is what they suggested.  It worked right away.

  • Ctrl-T command do not work in website with flash

    Ctrl-T command do not work in website with flash
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://

    If the Flash object has focus then key presses are processed by that plugin.
    In such cases you need to click outside that plugin (e.g. the menu bar if you can't click on the website) to make the keyboard work.

    Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check whether either the listening key or the speech key has become set to that keystroke; if so, change the setting.

  • Sms not working in iMessage

    This was all working fine linking with my iPhone 5s, then I suddenly noticed I was getting SMS on the phone but not on iMessage. When I try to send sms, it just reports them as 'Not Delivered, Could not be sent'.
    Nothing has changed on the phone or the Mac (although this could go back as far as the last iOS update, cant be sure.
    Logged phone out from Apple ID (message and facetime), logged facetime and imessage out on the mac. Logged both apps on the phone first, then facetime (works fine), then imessage.
    Logins all report they have worked and all devices show up where they should, but still cant send or receive sms from Mac (works ok on phone)
    Help!

    Hi,
    Both the iOS and the Mac OS X have apps called Messages.
    They are different but compatible.
    On enabling the app on the iPhone it can send iMessages as it registers the iPhone Number with the iMessages Servers. If you try to send to an Non Apple device or one that is not Registered then it will send SMS to the Phones involved (and tell you it can't to the others).
    The Mac App registers an Apple ID with the iMessages servers.  However it can also join 4 other services.
    In the latest software on both devices you can no link the iPhone and Mac for SMS.
    It does need both to be linked using the Apple ID on the iPhone so that iMessages that are sent display on both devices. Then it needs both to be on the same network.  Generally this means the iPhone is WiFi whilst the Mac can be Ethernet or WiFi.
    The iPhones can always send SMS when they have a carrier service.
    The Process that links the two uses the iPhone to send the SMS.
    Resetting can be a good place to start.
    As the iPhone can send SMS and this is a choice after activating the app on the iPhone it suggests that in Send and Receive on then iPhone that the Number is showing active for being linked to the iMessages servers.
    Removing the Apple ID should be followed by making the app break with the servers.
    I use putting it in Airplane Mode for two minutes and then going back to the Settings.
    This will tend to cause the iPhone Number to Verify again with the servers.
    After that has finished Add back the apple ID.
    This should trigger the pop ups on the Mac version which you should accept (it re-links the Apple ID and iPhone number even though they still appear in the settings).
    After that reset the Text Forwarding on the iPhone which should trigger the Code (a new one) appearing on the Mac version.
    The Code number needs entering on the iPhone.

  • IMessage not working on ipad2 with wifi only

    Hi-
    I just purchased an iPad. The iMessage feature is not working at all. I have an iphone4 and I message works fine. Every time I try to send with the iMessage it says message failed. I was trying to send it to another apple user. I believe that you can't send to people who do not have apple Ids.
    Please let me know no to fix it.

    Ok... That makes sense. However I sent a message to a fiend it said message send figure on the iPad but I guess went though my phone cause she was able to answer it and the response went to the iPad.

  • SMS not working on iPhone 5s

    SMS is not working on my new I phone 5s

    Well, what happens when you try and SMS? What makes you think that it is nor working? What troubleshooting have you tried? If this is SMS and not iMessage, SMS is a carrier function, have you checked with your carrier?
    Without knowing more information, it could be anything wrong.
