Suddenly, I cannot text my friends Barb or Jeanne from my iPhone4s. They can text me. We can talk.
When I try to text them, I receive a message from 923-0 "Message sent using invalid number of digits. Please resend using 10 digit number or valid short code. Msg 2114".
Sprint cannot fix. Says it's an Apple problem. Tried reentering the number, reformatting the number, updating, etc.
Used to be able to text Barb. Cannot think what changed.

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

Cannot log into my yahoo mail account from my iphone4.

I cannot log into my yahoo mail account from my iphone4. The password does not have any special characters. On my PC there is no problem.
Also cannot configure Add Yahoo mail. I woould get a message, stating "Verification required. Log into your Yahoo! account at www.yahoo.com". when I attempt this I get "Invalid ID/Password".

Tried eveyrhting and this was the way that fixed it for me --
if you are having an issue adding the yahoo mail account on an iphone/ ipad / ipod.
In the app store download the yahoo mail app for iphone (it works on ipads and ipods as well.. but there's only an iphone version). After downloading it - open and sign in. It's likely it will say that your yahoo account is 'locked' due to suspicious activity - follow the prompts to unlock it.
Now add the yahoo account under the ipad mail settings.
It should work in the regular ipad, iphone, ipod mail application now.
Hope this helps

I have Downloaded albums that break up into each and every song or artist and I cannot get them to combine into the one album that they actually are. How can I do that?

In My itunes library some of the albums I have downloaded to my computer are being separated into each song or broken up into groups of separate artists on the album. I cannot figure out how to combine them all back into the one album they actually are from so when I open the library under Albums the album in question is just one album and not 10 or 15 albums because of this fracturing. I can make them into one album by making a playlist but that does not take care of the Album list page. Any ideas?

Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix split albums.
For compilations of tracks by different artists set the album artist to Various Artists and also tick Album is a compilation of songs by various artists if using the new version of Get info or set Part of a compilation to Yes on the Options tab if using the old dialog box (which you can invoke by holding down shift as you right-click > Get Info).
For deeper problems see Grouping tracks into albums.

How do i contact ny friend on her ipad from my iphone4?

My friend has an ipad. can i contact him through my iphone4 facetime?

If your friend has an iPad 2, yes. If it's an orginal iPad, then no - because the iPad 1 does not have a video camera.
Here's how to set up a Facetime call:

Had a hard drive crash - iTunes folder is compromised. I cannot uninstall what's left or update from 11.0.1.12 - message is it can't locate iTunes64.msi HELP!!!

Problem locating iTunes64.msi on Windows 7 64-bit machine. Can anyone help me?????
Last version worked fine until hard drive crashed. Have tried a clean boot - nothing, same problem. I've deleted temp files, nothing. Saw another comment that Apple Support genius provided files needed for version they had problem with - once received, they coulld remove (uninstall) old version and update to current version. I only wish it will be that easy.

There is no numerical error number, only a message which I'm including below. The file iTunes64.msi is not on my computer - so I cannot uninstall the old version noted above - or update it. There are 189 files left in the folder that appears in the Control Panel. I cannot uninstall, change or repair it - nor can I remove the folder from the Control Panel. I believe I've already deleted the folders shown in my program listing - which probably eliminated all my music.
The hard drive crash has caused several programs to fail such as this, I'm just trying to get my laptop operational with the software or apps I had used previously.
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable
Click ok to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package.

Looks like I'm not the only one with the same problem. One person indicated you folks helped him solve the same issue - I'm hoping you can assist me as well.

You've set up both devices to use the same email address for iMessage. Don't do that.

I've been texting my friend with iMessage with wifi on and all of a sudden it changed to text message and won't let me send messages. My wifi is still on and working but it won't switch back to iMessage. Please help

What I recommend you try doing first is to turn iMessage off then back on. If that doesn't work, make sure that your Apple ID and password are correct. If everything seems correct and you still can't send out messages using iMessage instead of text message, I think you should either try calling AppleCare at 1-800-MY-IPHONE (1-800-694-7466) and/or scheduling an appointment at the Genius Bar at an Apple Store (that is, if there's one close to you).
Hope this helps!

Suddenly I cannot text one specific contact

Suddenly I cannot text one specific contact. They can text me and we can both call each other. My service provider shows no record of texts being sent, even though they appear to be sent from my iphone 4s. Can anyone help?

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

I don't have a phone plan, so I cannot text without wifi. I have been using iMessage to text my friends, until it stopped working. I can text my sisters email, but not my boyfriends iPhone. The send button will not turn blue. Help? Please?

There is a problem with iMessage with what Apple says is a small number of iPhones and they are working on a fix. In the meantime try this:
1. Settings > Messages > iMessage = Off
2. Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime = Off
3. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
4. Wait for the iPhone to Reboot
5. Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime = On
6. Settings > Messages > iMessage = On
You may have to repeat the steps a couple of times.

iOS 5 handles texts differently than previous versions. Resetting the network connections helps, but that didn't seem to solve your problem, and neitherdid the simple reset.
Try deleting old messages from the messages app, then after clearing up a lot, just do a simple restart of your phone. If you want to be extra sure, try resetting your network connections again. I had this same problem. Your last option would be a complete restore of the phone, but I don't think we'll have to go that far.

I am receiving incoming emails but all of a sudden, I cannot send any outward emails

I am receiving emails but all of a sudden, I cannot send outgoing emails. Any ideas why?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

TS2755 I can text one friend but not another. They both have iPhones. Why can't I text both?

I can't text my other friend and Idk why. We had lost our Internet for a couple days and I could text her before then. But afterwards when I try to text her it just shows the message under her name but doesn't say delivered and I've asked her if she's gotten my messages but she says she hasn't gotten them. I can text my OTHER FRIEND though. Please Help!

if you said you are the one who lost internet connection - and you are trying to send via the iPad.....this is exactly the reason why you cannot send messages from the iPad - it needs an internet connection for iMessage to work.
as for the iPhone - that can use the cellular data connection if no Wi-Fi is available.

Suddenly, I cannot text my friends Barb or Jeanne from my iPhone4s. They can text me. We can talk.
