  • I can receive iMessage but not send from my ipad.  The send button is grayed out

    The send button in IMessage is grayed out.  I can receive messages but not send them.

    Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated.
    Who are you using as your internet service provider at the time?
    Does your ntlworld email account have an authenticated SMTP server.
    I believe Yahoo does for a Yahoo account.

  • The send button is greyed out when I try to text some but not all people from my iPod touch. Any ideas how I can fix this?

    The send buttin is greyed out when I try to text some but not all people from my iPod Touch. This happens even when they have iPhone 4s. Any ideas why and how I can fix this?

    This issue can be caused by the McAfee SiteAdvisor extension.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • I can't send messages to two contacts that I have entered into my iPad. The send button is greyed out?

    Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem please?

    First of all anybody that you want to message with has to have messages already set up on their devices and they have to be registered to use Messages on their own. You cannot add them, they actually have to add themselves to use Messages. Messages only works with other iOS devices as well. You cannot text with any other cell phone or smartphone.
    But if the contacts were not registered you would get a different message than a grey send button I think. Go to Settings>messages>Show Subject field. Make sure that Show Subject Field is set to OFF.

  • Imessaging on my wifes ipad2 isn't working.  It will recieve messages, but when I try to send them to my iphone or my ipad the send button is grayed out and it won't go.

    imessaging isn't working on my wifes ipad2.  She can recieve messages from my iphone or my ipad1, but she can't send them. 

    The file format used by the iOS versions of the iWork apps can only be read by the new iWork apps on your Mac - i.e. Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Those versions for the Mac require Mavericks, OS X 10.9. The "too old" error on a Mac comes if you are trying to open an iWork '08 or earlier file in the newest apps. If you do have the newest apps you can open the files from your iPad.
    If you can't or don't want to upgrade to Mavericks & the newest iWork apps your best option would be to export/share the files from the iPad to a type an older version of iWork can read such as Word, text, Excel, etc.
    Or contact AppleCare. They made this mess, let them fix it.

  • When I use "Email Link" with Firefox, the "send" button in Thunderbird is grayed out.

    OS X 10.9.4
    The option of manually copying the link and pasting would work, but I've always been able to use "Email Link" from the "File" menu until the last few days.
    Restarting the computer did not help.

    Do you have an address in the address field? The send button stays greyed out until there is something in the address field.

  • My "send" button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared also. How do I retrieve these items?

    I have never had a problem sending & or receiving e-mail prior to the past few days. All of a sudden the Send button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared too.
    I did find some help which suggested opening the Write and then press F9 to retrieve the address list. The address list returned on the left but does not appear as it used to ie. full length of the screen. However what is now there will be satisfactory. The "Send " button is still missing which is frustrating as I have not been able to send any e-mails for approximately a week now.
    Would appreciate advice as to how to retrieve the above.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for your advice re: the SEND button having disappeared and also the address list on the left side having disappeared. I must confess that I was not able to get it back myself. This a.m. my computer would not turn on at all. I therefore contacted the company which services it, namely iTOK and a technician read your suggestions and after a bit of manipulation of various things he got them both back. It seems that I had not noticed the "press the alt key" as part of it due to the fact that the 'alt key' was not 'ALT key'. My fault for skimming too quickly. Thanks again for your advice...it worked and now i am back on track.

    Hello cjtulowiecki,
    You’re having problems with the computer not booting sometimes.
    Do a hard reset.
    Power off the computer.
    Remove the power cable and the battery.
    Hold down the power button for 15 sec while booth power sources are removed.
    This should reset the hardware in the computer.
    Next test all the hardware in the system.
    As you power it back on tap the F2 key. This will load hardware diagnostics.
    Run the startup test.
    Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
    Let me know how everything goes.
    Have a good day.

    I created a fillable PDF in Acrobat 9 pro and sent it out as a test to my email. I filled it out and pressed the send button but it does not work. I updated Adobe reader to version 10. Still nothing... anyone know what's wrong?

    - Make sure have something entered in the Subject fied.
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
