Unable to send a text to one specific person?

I have an iPhone 4S , for some reason it is not allowing me to send a text to one specific person
This person has an iPhone 4, when I try to send the text it says 'not delivered'
However if they send me a text I am able to reply?
What could be causing this how can we solve it?

Hi
I have now deleted them from Facebook , deleted them from my contacts
And then put contact back in
It now works
Thanks

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.

Phone won't let me send texts to one specific number.

Hello,
I recently discovered a problem with my Motorola Droid Mini phone, where it will not let me send texts to one specific number, but it will let me send texts to other numbers. I have tried rebooting my phone, deleting the number from my contacts and entering it manually, and have tried re-entering it into my contacts. None of this has worked so far, so any other suggestions would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!

sportsfox we'll get this figured out! Have you ever been able to text this number? Has this individual recently made any device changes? Are you able to receive messages from this number?

I am not able to text one specific person on my iphone 4. They an sporadically send but she is not recieving my message. I have read several forums and tried several things.. resetting etc... to no avail.. someone mentioned this may be the network. can anyone help? the phone also say it is ready to install update to ios 7.0.6 which provides a fix for ssl connection verification. then it indicates cannot be installd bcause it requires at least 3.7 GB of storage. So i have deleted some things and pretty sure I have enough GB but still reading the same message. OMGosh .. so frustrated.. especially wtih the texting.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

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.

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? Which phone do you have with us? Any new messaging applications or changes that you can recall on the phone since this issue began? Please share details so we can get to the bottom of this for you.

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

My iMessage won't let me text one specific person but will let message anyone else and also it keeps freezing and exiting out without letting me reply

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.

HT1414 While I'm on the phone I can't see my texts or who's beeping in on call waiting or send a text while one the phone

While I'm on the phone I can't see my texts or who's beeping in on call waiting or send a text while one the phone. When I hit the home buttons while on the phone it's really annoying so I can't multitask like talk on the phone while sending a text

someone could be hacking into your iPhone..... what I would do is to restore your iPhone (which will erase ALL your data)..... and change any passwords use on that iPhone..... and if you have to, go to where ever you bought the iphone and tell them that someone is making calls when ur on the phone.... If this doesn't help... sorry for wasting your time

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.

Go to Settings -> Messages -> Send & Receive on each device and deactivate the addresses you do not want to receive messages directed to on that device.

IPhone won't receive emails from one specific person

My iPhone 4S will not receive emails from one specific person.
It sends and receives emails from anyone else ok, I can send emails to this person with out problem, but it will not receive them.
If I check my webmail it is there, but it won't download to my phone? If I forward their email to myself from the web the forwarded one will be there, but not their original?
I receive emails from others in the organisation ok. And it used to receive them all ok, on about December 27th it stopped?
Anyone have any ideas on why this has happened and what I can do to fix it.
Thanks
Mike

She did have a 1 in front of the number, however she deleted it and the texts still aren't going through. Any idea what else it could be?
EDIT: Spoke too soon, just came through. It was just liek 20 minutes delayed.

Yet another imessage to one specific person thread - but with a twist.

Hi.
Monday this week I started experiencing difficulties sending imessages to one specific person from my phone. The messages would leave my phone but I get no indication of anything - no red error symbol, no "delievered", just silence. We are constantly sending each other messages and have been for quite some time - always using imessage. First off it looked like the messages was not being sent at all but I have discovered that they are delivered after 10-20 minutes.
What I have tried so far:
Can successfully send and recieve messages to and from others using imessage
Rebooted phone
Turned off imessages and reset network settings
Turned off imessages and facetime and removed email addresses
Used flight mode with only WIFI enabled and vice verca
Tried from a new iphone device set up as a new phone
What the other person has tried:
Can successfully send and recieve messages to and from others using imessage
Rebooted phone
Turned off imessages and reset network settings
Tried from a new iphone device set up as a new phone
I do not have the faintest idea as to what can be the problem now and would really appreciate some good pointers.
Regards
Thomas

Good idea. But wouldn't this have been covered by trying to message each other from a new phone - set up with no restore and hench being empty?
