When attempting to send a message from an iMail group,
I get a message the the outgoing server doesn't recognize any of the recipients, even when I try a couple different email programs. Any advice?
Your iPad is restricted to using Apple's Messages service for sending messages rather then SMS as per a mobile phone.
As long as you are sending to another iOS 5 and above user then you can send messages on your iPad (as long as you have set it up).
I am afraid you can not text to others not using an iPad/iPod Touch or iPhone

safari shuts down when i go to send a message from my hot mail account how do i fix this problem
Can you send an email from your computer to the ePrint service?
If so it may be that your phone is not supported. Here is a list of email clients that have been tested:
Outlook 2003, 2007
Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail, Gmail
Apple Mail (iPhone, iPad, Macbook, MacbookPro)
BlackBerry mail client
Nokia/Symbian client (Nokia)
You can change your account to locked mode from your ePrint Center. Once you've changed it you just enter your email address on the allow list.

Stick with one post at a time. Otherwise, it gets very confusing.

Hi lkgallagher24,
If you are talking about registering your own phone number with iMessage, you may find the following article helpful:

When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified because it is already in use ??? What am I doing wrong?
settings -> iTunes & App Store
click on apple ID listed there
select Sign Out
sign in with the proper account
from then on, when the store ask for your password it should be with the correct ID -

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.
You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

When I attempt to send a message the app quits immediately as I hit the send button.
When I attempt to send a message the app quits immediately as I hit the send button. iMessage also doesn't work. I have tried restoring it and that has failed.
You mentioned that you tried restoring....have you restored your phone as a NEW device (NOT using your backup)?
Restore your device as NEW. DO NOT add any apps other than those included with iOS 5. Try sending messages. If your phone works, then add your apps back. If not, then you have a hardware failure and you'll have to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation. -

When attempting to upgrade my iMac from Snow Leopard to Mavericks, I receive the message "This disk is used for Time Machine Backups" when I try to select the lone available hard drive. I have ensured that Time Machine is turned off. Upon some Google research, some who reported this problem were told to delete the folder backup.backupdb, but I do not have this folder on my Mac. Any suggestions?
The folder would be at the root of your hard drive. Double-click Macintosh HD and look there.
If it isn’t there, I’m not sure what it is seeing. -
When I send a message from my iphone 5 to an iphone 3 my number display on their phone as a different number?
Hello Nodycart,
That is an interesting issue that your contact is showing up as a different number on another iPhone. If it is using iMessage, I would check to see that you are starting a new conversation with the right number by going to Settings > Messages and look at the Start New Conversation. That also would be a good idea to delete the current conversation thread and start a new one to test it out further.

when i send a message from my iphone 4 to my wifes iphone 4 it sends it to her and back to me !
Go to settings on your device. Settings, messages, send and receive. You might have her email in this area selected unmark and / or delete. You must do the same on her device. Good luck
