Text messages will not send

Sometimes my text messages will not send, could be a pic or 3 word what's changed. On wifi same thing

This has been discussed time and again here in the forums.  Please use the search function before posting.
A phone reset or going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings resolves the issue.
iOS7.0.3 will be available next week that resolves this issue. (quote from KalebsDad7  - it was so well written)

  • My text messages will not send out since upgrading to iOS7.0.2.

    My text messages will not send out since upgrading to iOS7.0.2.  What do I need to do?

    It seems Apple has a glitch with text/imessages in iOS7 and they are trying to fix it. Many people get it working again by simply restarting thier phone
    For me, restarting the phone kind of corrects it for awile but then it starts doing it again. My phone gives no indication the messages havent gone out till after I restart it! Huge problem since I cant tell when it quits sending! I have to keep restarting my phone a couple times a day to make sure all my texts went out!
    I also found this procedure but it also seems to be only a temporary fix much like restarting your phone.
    Go to Settings and into Messages and disable iMessage. Go into General then into the Reset tab (bottom of the screen). Next, select Reset Network Settings, confirm the choice, and wait for the iPhone to reboot. Once the phone restarts, toggle iMessage back on again.

  • I am having tremendous difficulty sending simple voice text messages, or typed text messages to non I-phone users. Picture text messages will not send at all and can only be sent to other i-phone users. Is anyone else haing this problem ??  Big concern

    Well this is stupid - I wrote the question above and now it is telling me the message is blank - how dumb is this.
    I am having tremendous difficulty sending sipmle typed texts, voice texts and picture text messages to non I- phone users.
    Simple text messages are sporadic and seem to be impacted by whether I incluse a subject or not - picture texts will not go at all.
    Anyone else having this problem ???

    It's a corporate phone so will need to check. Will not send text messages to non I-phones if they contain a "subject" or a picture.  Wierd - regular voice or typed text messages are fine.

  • One contact who has an iPhone but messaging will not send as iMessage

    I have one contact, who has an iPhone, but messaging will not send as iMessage, only text.  All my other contacts with iPhones, the messages go as iMessages - even messages going to people who are not in my contacts.  What is the fix?

    But if that person did not set up an iMessage account on their iPhone, then they cannot receive any iMessages at all, only SMS text messages.
    Both the sender and the recipient must have an iOS device with an active iMessage account.
    There is nothing you can do about it, other than ask them to set up iMessage on their device (which if they don't want to, is their choice).

  • Why can I receive text messages but not send?

    Why can I receive text messages but not send. This has been happening for about 10 hours.

    Thanks for the response. Must be smart phones. My daughter has a dumb phone and she can send out. I tried deleting my text messages on the Verizon website, but they won’t delete. It must be on their end. Chat line was busy forever, until they shut it down.

  • Mail messages will not send and remain in Outbox

    I have a POP using Gmail and it has usually worked extremely well.
    Recently I have had a lot of problems with messages I am sending
    getting stuck even though the connection doctor indicates not problem.
    Error message will sometimes say could not connect to server.
    I have restarted etc. and the only way I can get my messages out of the
    Outbox is to quit Mail and re-open and then they will go out without
    any problem.
    Any ideas how to fix this problem permanently??
    Thanks!

    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
    Mail keeps information about outgoing (SMTP) servers in a separate list independently of the mail accounts themselves. The account settings just associate one of the available outgoing servers with each account. Orphaned or dangling outgoing server entries (i.e. not associated with any account) sometimes cause weird sending problems. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), choose Edit Server List from the popup menu, and delete any servers that shouldn’t be there. The Edit Server List panel shows the account each outgoing server is associated with.
    If the problem persists and you have more than one mail account, try moving the account that has the problem to the top of the list in Preferences > Accounts.

  • All text messages will not transfer to new iPhone 5s

    Hi everyone, hoping someone out there can help...
    I recently purchased a new iPhone 5s, transferred (everything, so i thought) from my old iPhone 4. The switch was made by Verizon but i have now noticed that not all of text messages transferred (they stop sometime in 2012). I am one that will refer back to old messages for reference, so it is impotant to me to have them. I have tried again and again syncing through iTunes without success. Any suggestions on how to recover these text messages?
    Thank you in advance!

    The best way to do this is through icloud. Enable icloud on old phone and manually back up. Reset new phone to factory settings and on welcome walk through choose "restore from iCould backup" this puts your voicemails, texts, contacts, apps, settings, etc. on to your new device.

  • I am unable to send a text message.  I can send a imessage fine.  I am able to receive a text message but not send

    I have been unable to send a regular text message since the other day when I arrived in Houston and took my phone off airplane mode.  I have went thru the carrier and nothing we did solved the problem.  What are some options I could try.  I have no problems sending imessages as long as there is a data connection.

    Text messages are a carrier feature so if you are having problems sending them I would check with your carrier

  • Text messages do not send or takes too long to send

    When i try to send a text they wont send at all or they will take forever to send. i'll also receive texts 30 minutes after they were originally sent.

    First, when was the last time you deleted any messages?  This problem is usually due to too many messages both sent and received.  You might try to delete old threads or start all over fresh.  Also, the SIM may be at fault, so make sure it is seated snuggly and correctly in the slot.  I will say that it takes a long time to delete all messages and also takes time to delete large amounts at the same time.  This is the first 2 steps I would try before going on to anything else.  Again, while deleting, it will take some time and may appear that your phone has frozen.  So, do this when you can let the phone sit idle.

  • Messages will not send or receive files.

    My messages app picks and chooses when it will send and receive files. Usually they are images or videos but also some Pages documents. Bringing up the file transfer window shows the spiraling download bar for receiving files and sending files will say "sent 0 kb of ____" and not move. Is there anything I can check to

    How can I keep iCloud installed without having to uninstall it every time I want to send an email.
    My operating syste is WIn7

    could well be a signal,connection problem.

  • Some Text Messages do not display when using large font on iphone

    When using increased font size (accessability function) on iphone some text messages will not display. The iphone just seems to lock up. If normal font size is used text massage displays with out any issue. When font size is increased, text message will not display again.

    Hi Peter
    Actually, Captivate does have an essentially unlimited number
    of undo levels. But that number may appear to be different. The
    number of levels starts when you begin editing the project. If you
    close and re-open a project, that starts the undo process over.
    I've tested and I gave up after about 280 or so undos.
    Where Captivate doesn't allow an undo, it normally warns you
    with a rather catastrophic looking dialog.
    Cheers... Rick

  • I have tried to send photos through text messaging and it will not send. I thought my iPhone 3 was giving out so I got my iPhone 4 last night and still can't send photos through text message. What is the deal??

    I have tried to send photos through text messaging and it will not send. I thought my iPhone 3 was giving out so I got my iPhone 4 last night and still can't send photos through text message. What is the deal??

    Also MMS is supported on a carrier by carrier basis. While mostly every carrier does support ths feature make sure that your carrier allows this functionality.

  • My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times

    My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times.  My brother has the same phone, lives in the same home and doesn't have this problem.  I can't receive messages without my iphone displaying a message asking for my phone number at random times. It happens intermittently.  Does anyone know why this happens? I am referring to regula text messages not imessages.  I have turned it off and also updated to the most recent software. thanks

    I've been an AT&T customer since they were under different names in the 90s and have never heard/seen that. I would check with them. I'd really like to see that error. To get a screenshot on the phone, press the home button and sleep/wake button together quickly and release. You will see the screen flash slightly and hear the camera shutter noise.
