  • Why is that when I downloaded the iOS 7 for my iphone 5 that it changed my send and receive for imessages to a random number but my SMS messages are still linked to my phone number?

    I just encountered this problem for the first time and stumbled upon this forum to find a solution.  I played around with it a bit and it seems that if you slide your finger from the bottom up, you will come upon that new screen that will allow you to do various functions with your phone (put it in airport mode, lock, etc.), you can select your Airport from this screen and play your music wirelessly from your phone; at least this was my experience. Hope this helps!

  • My iphone 5 will send iMessage and mms messages, but not sms messages. Help!

    I have already reset network settings, reset all settings, hard reset and even erased and restored my phone and it won't send sms messages. Only iMessage and mms. I don't know what to do

    1. This is the iPad forum.  The iPhone forum is here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone/using_iphone
    The Hosts will likely move the thread there shortly however.
    2.  Phone and text service does not rerquire internet. Its a separate service to the Data access for internet.
    Do you have Mobile/Cellular Data turned on in Settings->Cellular/Mobile?
    Have you talked to straight talk?  Your Data allowance may have been exceeded on your plan.

  • Using iMessage 8.0 with Mavericks to send sms message to my friend who has an iPhone.  Only allows me to log in under AIM, YAHOO, GOOGLE, or BONJOUR.  I don't want to do any of that.  Just my phone number.  Is this possible?

    Hi,
    The first run of Messages will ask you to enter an Apple ID to "register' with iMessages.
    If you do not do this but open the App and look in Preferences > Accounts then you will see the iMessages account and the Bonjour Account which will not be activated.
    Neither of these two account can be deleted. (even if not being used)
    If you then press the + icon to add you will get the choices you posted.
    To iMessage you need to "register" and Apple ID with the iMessages service.
    As Diane then points out you can link this to your iPhone number.
    This "syncs" (Displays on all devices) the various iMessages sent to either iPhone or Apple ID
    You can then chose  on both iPhone or Mac version how or which ID/Number is going to be used to "Start the conversations from"
    I have my Mac version set to start from my Apple ID and the iPhone from it's number.
    At this moment the Mac version cannot send SMS text messages to an iPhone.
    This is apparently coming with iOS 8 and OS 10.10 (Yosemite)
    An AIM account can send SMS Messages but only to a limited number of USA based phone users on these carriers.
    (Basically you add a phone number with country code +1 as a Buddy to your List)
    Mocked up number  (It not really an auto responder although you do get sent back and Error message about it not being valid)

  • My friend has an iphone with no data plan, how do i send sms messages without my own iphone trying to send an imessage

    i have an iphone5 with a data plan, my friend has an iphone5 with no data plan, 
    how do i send sms messages to him without my own iphone trying to send an imessage
    im sure we can tap on the message and select "send as text or sms"
    but is there a setting that says 'if recipient has no data, then send as text' - so its more automated
    almost like the setting that says 'if i have no data then send sms'.

    I have an iPhone 5s with a data plan but I have iMessage turned off. Everyone I know with an iPhone has no problem sending me texts and they automatically go out as sms. If your friend doesn't want others to send messages via iMessage even when he has wi-fi access he can turn iMessage off in Settings > Messages.  If that doesn't resolve the issue see the quote below from (ignore the non-Apple phone references): Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone
    If you don't have access to your iPhone, or if you can't deactivate iMessage from your iPhone, please contact Apple Support. Support for this issue is free.

  • Why can i send imessage texts but not sms texts ?

    why can i send imessage texts but not sms texts ?
    When i try to send an sms text ..i get a 'not delivered' message...no error code...imessage works fine...

        Very strange, [email protected] Let's get this figured out. Make sure that SMS messages are turned on. Go to Settings>Messages>Send as SMS. Please let me know if this works.

  • My iMessage will send to other iMessage users, but when they message me back, their messages will only send to me as a text message! I have an iPhone and iPad, and they've been synched for a year now, but I just got a new iPhone 5c . What to do?

    Ok my iMessage will send to other iMessage users, but when they message me back, they can only send texts. I have an iPad and when I send iMessages to
    Them from there, they receive  them, but can still only text me back to my phone. They also sometimes receive messages from my iCloud email instead of my phone number.... When that happens, iMessage works. It's really annoying! Can anyone help.
    I got the iPhone 5c around Christmas and it's worked fine until yesterday!!! This has been going on 2 days now. I have reset iMessage, and the network settings. I've restarted my phone and iPad and they're both completely cleared of messages. I don't know what else to do.

    There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage.   There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
    I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

    I find the Action listed but I don't know where I type my message.

    I discovered that I have to add the action Ask for Text prior to the Send SMS Message. Also, I found it odd that I am sending to my iPHone which is AT&T here in the US, but I have to choose Cingular from the carrier dropdown before the text comes through.

  • API's for sending SMS messages

    Where can I find documentation on how to send/receive SMS messages via Oracle WE? Are there any API's available? I am currently on v1.0.2.2.

    Hi Friend,
    It is a great difficult to find API for sending SMS messages....but i succeeded....for sending SMS messages there is a Class Calles SmsSender and use
    sendSms(String mobileno, String message).....it will send message to the given mobile no...before i hope u have configured SMS Properties in Notification.properties file..
    and Coming to receive SMS...there is one more Class SmsServer which listens to all the messages coming on the configured port..now you need to customize this class...
    All the best....
    Cheers

  • Cannot SEND SMS messages on 8130

    Here's my story:
    1.  I upgraded to a Blackberry Pearl 8130 in pink earlier this year.      My carrier is Verizon.
    2.  Recently (say a month ago), a friend sent a text message to me from her new phone.  I attempted to text her back, but received a big fat red X indicating that my message did not go through.  Specifically, when I open my message, the error says, "Mobile equipment status failed."
    3.  I went to Verizon.  They did something where I think they took me off the network and then put me back on.  This did nothing.  She wanted to do a hard set on the phone, but I had not backed up my data yet. 
    4.  I went home and backed up my data and went back to Verizone about a week later.  I spend over an hour in the store.  The gentleman that was helping me was on the phone with someone (presumably technical support) to no avail.  He was ready to order me a replacement phone, but after further discussion with tech support, they thought there was an issue with the network, not my phone.  I went home with a case number.
    5.  The very next day Verizon called me.  They indicated that it wasn't a network issue and that it was my phone.  They were going to send me a replacement.
    6.  I received my replacement phone a couple of days later.  I was anxious to get it set up, but the results have been the same.    I have not yet returned to Verizon.  I thought I'd try here first to see if anyone had any ideas.
    The bottom line: 
    I CAN send/receive e-mails. 
    I CAN send a MMS message. 
    I CAN receive SMS messages. 
    I CANNOT send SMS messages.
    Thank you for any advice you may have.

    Solved!

    Two months later and I finally ..yes FINALLY figured out the SMS issue I previously mentioned on my own out of sheer frustration. I have a Pearl 8130. First ..thanks to everyone for the previous suggestions for resolution here on this board, Google and other areas I've searched many times over however ..none of the suggetions or options worked ..ie, battery pull, *228, calling Alltel tech support many times, going to the Alltel store etc.. you name it I tried it. Guess what? And this is for anyone else who may have had the same problem.. sad to say it was a very simple change in the settings that resolved the "X SMS error 0, Message ID 99"  response on every single text (sms) I tried to send.
    1.) Click the Call Log icon
    2.) Select the menu button (immediate right of the track ball)
    3.) Select Options - this will give you a list that begins with "General Options" ..etc
    From this list..
    4.) Select Smart Dialing
    From here you will see an option for "Use "1" for National Dialing" 
    If it on the default setting of "no" change it to "yes"
    Save your selection as normal and you should be good to go.
    The funny thing in all of this ..I was recently in Southern California (I live in Arizona) and while there I had absolutely no trouble whatsoever sending or receiving. Upon my return to AZ the problem resurfaced and I have to admit that after 7yrs with Alltel (soon to be Verizon) I am truly disappointed with tech support for the very first time. A simple default setting needed to be changed ~sigh~
    Hope this works for anyone else who is having issues ..specifically Alltel/Verizon.

  • Curve 8300 - Can't send SMS messages - Email set up?

    Hi, my dad has an old Blackberry curve 8300 that was a work phone, it is unlocked and can make and receive calls, and receive sms messages, however I cannot get it to send sms messages. 
    Is this because he never set up an email address with the Blackberry?
    It won't let me enter a personal email address, Is this because it was his work phone and is there any way to change this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi dave12384
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    As it was Work Phone it might have some IT policy enabled on it as a result you may not be able to use those feature .
    SMS is Emails service are both different , One comes under Voice level and another under Data Level Services .In order to enjoy Email services on  legacy BlackBerry devices we need BlackBerry Data Plan . When we activate those Data Plan our Carrier push those Service Books to our Device and it will allow us to add any email account on our Blackberry Smartphones. But as your Device is a Work Phone so it may not allow you to add any BIS plan unless those IT policies are removed  from that particular devices .You can refer to this Knowledge base to remove an IT policy but first do a backup of your device  :
    KB31291 :  How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory settings using BlackBerry Desktop Software
    KB18998 :  How to reset the BlackBerry smartphone to factory defaults
    But mind it sometime it is very difficult to remove an IT policy from such devices in which those Policies are deeply coded , but you should try to see if that help.

  • How do i send sms messages from my mac to a phone

    the gurl from apple said i could send sms messages from my imac to a phone. How do i di that?

    Hi Lanny,
    Actually those two pics don't tell you what you need to know.
    The First is correct as it can be from the Messages app but the second goes to no way to tell you how to do and b fact does not even mention SMS messages.
    @ 10411
    You will need to have an AIM or AIM Valid name that you can add to the Messages > Preferences > Accounts at the + icon below the list.
    Next the Mac need to be in the United States.
    Go to System Preferences > Language and Text and set the Region to the Untied States.
    (In iChat this added SMS items to some of the Menus in iChat)
    The iPhone has to be on a Carrier that is in the United States   See list
    Which in turn means the phone number is a United States one (+1 country code)
    This means you add the Cell/mobile number as if it were a Buddy to an AIM list.
    So Creating an Address Card for "SMS Test" and adding the mock number +1234567890 to that I get this in Messages  (Mousing over the Name to see the "Screen Name" which is the number in this case)
    Basically this is a feature that iChat has always had since AIM included a link to SMS to certain Phones.
    Messages does everything iChat did/does and this includes SMS Messaging via an AIM Buddy list even though in this case the Menu items has disappeared.
    AS has been said there are also other methods.
