  • Since installing iOS 5 I am unable to send international texts to contacts.

    After intsalling iOS 5 (aswell as 5.0.1 a few days ago) I am unable to send international text messages, both sms and imessages, to anyone in my contact list. I can though send them if I manually insert their number.
    This does in fact automatically substitute the inserted number with the entry I have in my contact list, yet will only send the message this way.
    If I simply select someone from my contact list, it will give me a "message send failure" error.
    I have attempted this through an Iphone 4 with a +44 vodafone sim to Italian (+39) numbers.

    Also, I have attempted this with both the International Assist on and off. The sim seems to work normally on other phones.

  • Since last weekend (3-15-15) I have been unable to send/receive text messages with a friend who has Sprint service. The messages send with no errors on either side, but neither side is receiving the messages. Is anyone else having any similar issues?

    Since last weekend (3-15-15) I have been unable to send/receive text messages with a friend who has Sprint service. The messages send with no errors on either side, but neither side is receiving the messages. It seems to be only this one person affected by this issue, everyone else that I've tried sending messages to has responded with no trouble. Is anyone else having any similar issues?

    Retrohacker, Your text messages are too important to be missed! Let's figure this out, together. Are you able to successfully make and receive calls from your friend?

  • Unable to send Group text from Nokia Lumia 520

    Hi Guys,
    I am unable to send Group text from lumia 520, even after enabling the Group text option in the messaging settings.
    Please help.

    I also need to send group msg to about 100 people which was possible in Symbian, but in Lumia group limit is 25 (how ridiculous!)
    Now I have made several groups of 25 & send few mgs.
    But what I don't like is, group sms are shown in different thread, so when someone replies, his thread doesn't show the group msg so I can't make out to which msg I am getting reply.
    Earlier Symbian used to send group msg as individual sms so replies used to show all sms, sent & received. Symbian system was better for me.
    Using Nokia Lumia 1320.
    Also have Nokia E72 & Nokia N8.

  • When I type a text I am unable to send the  text.  Any suggestions?

    When I type a text I am unable to send the text.  Any suggestions?

    Is it failing and giving you an error message?
    Is it happening with all contacts or just one? It could be that you have an incorrect number or the number you're sending it to might not be able to receive incoming SMS

  • 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

  • Unable to send a text

    I just got an iphone 4 and I added my friends in contacts. When I try to text them, I do not get the delivered message and they are not getting the text. But if they text me first then I am able to send a message and have them receive it..
    How do you fix this?

    big difference between Text and iMessage. Please elaborate.

  • My daughter has an iPhone 4,and she is unable to send/receive texts all the time. Why?

    My daughters iphone 4 isn't letting her receive/send texts all the time. Most of the time she NEVER receives the texts when I'm sitting in the same room with her! This is her second phone with the same problem! What is the fix? This recent phone, was my wife's,till she upgraded, and she had NO problem with texts, so it must be something with my daughters settings, that she backed up from the old phone when we switched?

    If it is a text issue and not a call issue I would guess it has something to do with her iMessage settings. Try turning iMessage off and see if she can receive texts.

  • Unable to send a text message.

    Phone adds a 1 in front of the phone number of the text.  I am only using a 10 digit munber, but the phone keeps adding a 1. I get an error message saying invalid number and to resend using a valid 10 digit number.  iMessage works fine.  It's only when I try to text someone not using an iPhone.  Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    If you're a Verizon user, try this:
    Open the phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
    When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
    Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating "Settings updated."
    Double tap the Home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom.  Locate the Phone, Message, and Contacts apps, swiping if necessary, and press and hold until they wiggle then press the red minus sign to stop them.
    Wait a 3-5 minutes.
    Try sending you message again to see if it's fixed.

  • Unable to send a text message to one of my contacts

    I am using this iphone as an ipod touch until I can switch to att for a cell carrier.  So, I want to send a msg to a contact but it shows it green and wont send.  any odeas

    Hello mmurray550,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    According to a previous Support Communities thread marked as solved, green phone numbers are numbers not registered with iMessage, and would thus be SMS only.  Since you're using an iPod touch, it does not have SMS capability, and therefore cannot send a message to that number.

  • Unable to send or receive text on iphone 5s

    Unable to send a text or receive one on my iphone 5s

    SMS/MMS, which are true text messages (not iMessage) are a carrier function. You need to contact the carrier and have them check your account to see if you have a SMS/MMS plan on your account.

  • Unable to send texts messages containing the letter é anywhere in the text

    I am unable to send ANY text that contains the character é as in Pokémon since January on my Droid Razr... prior to January it sent just fine, but the message just hangs in the 'sending' and NEVER gets sent!!! the recipient NEVER receives the text and it NEVER goes into failed status!!!! just hanging in 'sending' mode!!!! only does this on Verizon Wireless phone... so frustrating as my nerd friends like it and I prefer to type Pokémon rather than Pokemon!!!

    What happens when you try to send a message? If you get an error message,
    what is the exact complete wording of that message?
    Are you using iMessage or a 3rd party app?
    Is your account properly provisioned for messaging if using other than iMessage?

  • IPhone 4 wont send a text to one person

    i am unable to send a text to one person in my contacts. i have tried everything i deleted the contact and re input it. the only thing is when i start a new message the phone number comes up as other even though the contact has been deleted. Please Heelp

    I've been having this problem as well, and it's incredibly frustrating. I called Verizon Customer Service and they were unable to help me, and I'm at a total loss. The person who is not receiving my texts is on a Droid and has T-Mobile. I was able to text her without any problems until Tuesday evening. She can text me, but she does not receive my text messages. There is no problem with actual phone calls. I already tried deleting the contact and resetting my network settings.
