Text Messages won't send to one person...HELP!
For the last 2 days when I send my bf a text he doesn't receive it, I get the messages he sends me. We have no problems calling each other. He has an android and sprint service and I have an iPhone 4s and Verizon. I have tried everything, removing his contact and re-adding it, even a reset on my phone. He used to have an iPhone and has unregistered his number per Verizon suggestion, and still not working. I have turned off my iMessages. I can text him via google voice, and is the only person I am having this issue with, we checked to make sure neither number is blocked, it just doesn't make any sense!!
Can anyone help?
Thank you for your inquiry. I do agree with the postings from the members. If someone has blocked you from calling or texting, it would be the cause of what you are experiencing. However, calling the carrier will not change the decision to remove the block. If you blocked some from calling or texting you, would you want that same person to be able to call your service provider to remove the block you placed on your line? If so, I suggest you not seek to restore the connection until you know the other person wishes to allow the calls or text to go through. They opted to have the connect blocked for the time being at their personal discretion.

Messages won't send to one person?
I have an iPhone 4 and my messages will not send to my friend. She does not have an iPhone. I can receive her messages but she won't get mine. It's been this way for weeks. I've tried everything. Deleted our messages, deleted her number and just typed the number in a new message thread. I've tried blocking and unblocking her. I reset the network settings. I've read multiple forums and tried everything. Someone please help me.
It is a new problem, not a reply to any...

Text messages won't send to one specific contact
Ok, I've searched for this problem, have seen it several times, but haven't come up with a solution.
My texts appear as "text message not sent" on every text that I send to this contact; I've never had any problems texting this person before. We are facebook friends and so his number appears twice in his contact, once the way I had originally entered it and again the way it appears on facebook with the +1. I've tried every which way and it just doesn't work. It's not on his end, he still gets texts from people. I tried installing handcents so that I could delete all failed messages and it didn't help. Now i'm stuck. This is a big problem. Don't want to reset my phone or anything, there has to be a fix for this right?
Any help would be much appreciated.Thank you for your inquiry. I do agree with the postings from the members.

IMessages won't send to one person, no message notifications.
Okay so last night my messages app showed that I had one unread message, but all of my messages were open. I figured it would just go away, so I left it alone and went to sleep. I woke up this morning, and it was fine. The little red 1 went away. About an hour later, I went to text someone, and when i opened my messages app, all of my texts were deleted, but one name was still there with no messages. The time was 2 minutes before I checked it. I tried to iMessage the person back, but it wouldn't ever "deliver." So I text my father, who has an iPhone, and it went through and he text me back. I called the person who was trying to text me and told them to text me. I recieved their iMessage, but it still wouldn't let me reply. It would let me double click and send as a text message, though. The person said it showed up on their phone as an iMessage. I can deal with having to manually send it as a text, but now when they reply, I dont get a notification for it.
I can not turn off my phone or try to restart it because my lock button is broken and I don't know how else to turn it back on. If you know of any way tp resolve this, please help. Thanks in advance.Read this:

After typing message and send, it doesn't send, stays on screen without sending
Same happened to me. It seems I was typing in the Subject Field. The Send was not highlighted. Typing in the message area fixed it, and Send became highlighted.
To get rid of the Subject Field when texting :
Go to Settings then Messages then down to SMS/MMS. Where it says show Subject Field, switch OFF.
Worked for me. -
Messages won't deliver to one person
I'm trying to send a message to my friend who lives out of the country. It's not saying that my messages are being delivered. I tried everyone else on my contacts list and it works ok with them. Does this mean it's an issue with her phone? I've never had that happen before.

Imessage won't send to one person?
My sister got an iphone 5s yesterday and i have had an iphone 4s for about 2 years now. I have always been able to send imessages no problem but recently everyone i know with an iphone has got a new brand of phone so i have no one to imessage anymore. This has only been for a week or so. So yeah my sister got an iphone and she can send imessages to someone she knows with an iphone so her phone is fine and i have reset my settings, turned imessage and my phone on and off etc and we still cannot imessage each other. We both made sure our numbers are in the iphone option and nothing. I feel like it's a fault on my part but i can't test to see if my imessage works on anyone else! How do we fix this?

Hi, I have had an LG Octane for 4 years and loved it. I used it for email, surfing the web and facebook. But 6 weeks ago I stopped getting text messages, I could send but not receive. I was told it was just worn out. So I ordered another Octane from ebay, and it wouldn't connect to the internet. I was told by Verizon that the software had been changed. So I ordered a NEW in Box Octane and I am having trouble with that too. Bing won't work, nothing will work that will enable me to download Verizon Opera mini that still works on my old phone. I have a smart phone with another number but I LOVE the Octane for daily use. Why will my old Octane work but I can't get a NEW one to. Verizon guys are stumped too:( Please help!! Thanks!
Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread. -
Texts will only go through to one person

Hey bunny85,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you are having trouble with Messages on iOS. If it is only sending messages to one person, the first thing you may want to do is update your iOS software and your carrier settings to the latest versions. After that this article should be able to help you out.

Regarding text messaging, if I send a message from my iPhone, the reply goes to my ipad, or mini ipad. How can I stop this from happening?
Go to Settings/ Messaging/ Send & Receive on each device to set the contact points to be reached at, and to set the "from" address when you start a new message. It sounds like your iPhone might be sending messages out as one thing (e.g. an iCloud address) but set to not receive replies only to your phone number. Make sure you review settings on each device since you may, or may not, want to have them common.

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.

Messages Won't Send To Non-iPhones!
So I woke up and my messages won't send to non-iPhones but they will to other iMessage users. Then , I go to my dial pad and I can call out to non-iPhones. This freaking ***** and I need it fixed NOW or I am switching back to android.
Did you make sure that "Send as text if iMessage is not available" is activated in Settings/Messages?

My husband made the mistake of "upgrading" to IOS 7 last night. Now he is receiving every text message that I send or receive. How do I make this stop. We have always shared the same Apple ID in the past and never had any problems. I've seen posts where they say to create separate Apple ID's, but that means that whichever one of us does that, is gonna lose access to everything that is in our current ITunes account, correct?

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........
