Unable to send text messages to non iphone users
i can only send messages to iphone users because of imessage.. why?
Text messages rely on your cellular carrier's SMS system when going to non-iPhone users. Contact your cellular carrier and make sure your plan includes SMS.

Most likely your carrier has not enabled texting on your phone. -
HT3529 can my daughter send text messages to non iphone users with only an apple id?
Can you send a text message from ipod touch to non iphone users with only an apple id and no phone number?
The Apple Messages app will only send Messages to another uses who has the Messages app on their iPod touch, iPad or iPhone. For Messsging an iPod touch or iPad you use the E-mail address they have in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive. An Phone number will also be listed if they also have an iPhone with iOS 6 using the same Apple ID and yo can use the number.
You can Message an iPhone by its phone number of the Apple ID email address listed in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive. -

Upgraded from iphone to a Samsung and now i am unable to receive text messages from other iphone users unless they disable imessage .
Being my original number was on an iphone is why this is happening .
Please help. Almost everyone has an iphoneYou should have turned iMessage off before disabling the phone. Do you still have the phone so you can turn iMessage off? If not, you will need to go to Apple support on their website and delete the product from your profile.

Picture messaging via text messages to non-iPhone users.
Hi I have an iPhone 4 with bell, I am unable to send pictures via text message/to non-iPhone users. I've been able to send them before using wifi, but not now. I've tried turning off iMessage, resetting network settings, mms on SMS on, I don't have data but wifi always worked before hand. I've tried sending to iPhones using text message, to HTC, and a blackberry but neither work and I cannot receive from the black berry nor HTC, please help, this is frustrating.
MMS is a carrier feature, so make your queries to Bell.

IPhone 4s wont send picture messages to non iPhone users.
I've tried reinstalling the IOS 6, changing the settings, shutting off the phone. I can not send picture messages to non iPhone users but can send texts and receive texts and receive picture messages. just can't send. Help.
jannwj, sending and receiving pictures is very important these days because we try to capture the moment all the time. I know this issue is frustrating because I take, send, and receive pictures at least 20 times a day. I researched your issue and did not find this as a known issue. Do you receive a error message? I recommend checking your message settings to ensure they are enabled. I have listed the steps below:
1) From the home screen, select Settings.
2) Select Messages.
3) From MMS Messaging, drag the switch left or right to enable / disable. Enabled when set to ON.
Please let me know if this helps. Also ensure the data network is enabled. I have listed steps below:
1) From the home screen, select Settings.
2) Select General.
3) Select Cellular.
4) Drag the Cellular Data switch left or right to enable / disable cellular data.
On /Celluar data enabled
Off /Cellular data disabled
Keep us posted with the status of your issue.

I can't send or receive text messages from non iphone users
Under Settings - Messages, do it state Sens SMS ON? Should be (this applies to imessage but just in case).
Same area, MMS Messaging is on? Should be.
If all else fails, go into Settings General Reset - Reset Network Settings (this will lose WiFi info but fixes a lot of messaging errors). -

Another thing you can try is to ensure that the setting for ( send as sms if imessage unavailable ) is turned on, this can be found in Settings : Messages. If this doesnt work you can also try changing the contact details to read mobile instead of iphone.
That setting is not relevant to sending SMS messages to non-iPhones. It only affects what happens when an iMessage won't go through to an iOS device. And, what the phone number is labeled has no effect on anything. You could create a custom label "Rutabaga" and the SMS would still go through if the account was properly provisioned. Those labels are for human brain convenience only. -

Do you have a setting in Settings > Messages for MMS Messaging and if so, is it on?

wondering if it is due to a brief stop in service but I am not receiving messages from non-iPhone contacts and not allowing me to send--even though it appears as I sent a text--recipients are not getting the texts I send IF they do not have an iPhone...what to do to change this?
Contact your carrier and make sure that your account is properly set up for texting.

On or after January 1, 2013 (that was the last day that it worked), I lost the ability to text pictures to a non-iPhone user. Can you help, because my daughter misses the pictures. If it matters, I am on AT&T and my daughter on Verizon Wireless.
99.9% of the time, if you can send/receive SMS's, & MMS is turned on in settings, the problem rests with your carrier, not your phone. So, call your carrier & have them reset MMS for your account. MMS is a carrier feature & must be properly provisioned to work.

Why do i receive blanks text messages from non iphone users when they send emojis ?
everytime some non iphone user texts me an emoji, it just comes as a bubbe with no words or emojis
i know there are emojis being used because someone had told me what they putWhatever emoji font they're using isn't compatible with iPhones. Mostly, I've seen the problem in the other direction. Putting emoji in a text from an iPhone to an Android can result in gibberish.
One more good reason not to use emoji,
Best of luck. -
Why am I getting message send failure from my iPad to a non-iPhone
When I was in the Apple store on Friday with my iPad I asked the text the same question. we turned on my iPad and it allowed me to text text message anybody I wanted regardless of what the device. When I left apple store while I'm in the parking lot and I checked it again before I left the area and it still allowed me to text message anybody. Now it is not. And also I cannot email anybody from my iPad today to a non iPhone and that's wrong because until today I have been doing that for weeks. Hmmmm now what
