When I send a message to the same iPhone user in the UK, sometimes it sends an iMessage and sometimes it sends it as a text. Anyone know why?

It always seems to happen after the fact, also. I'll check it later and it shows up green instead of blue. And, it doesn't seem to matter if I'm connected to wifi or not. What can I do to make sure they are all iMessages? Or at least so I can make the decision not to send?

I believe that if you turn off "Send As SMS: off in the settings, it should only attempt to send as an iMessage and should fail if iMessage is unavailable. It tries to send an iMessage a few times and then if unable, it will send as an SMS if you have that turned on.

My MacBook Pro turns on but not all the way, it gives me an icon of a grey folder with a question mark in the middle, and won't go further that that. Anyone knows why, or what's the problem?

If these do not resolve the issue or if you are not comfortable with proceeding through these steps then take your Mac to an Apple store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. An Apple store will perform these initial steps, diagnose the problem, and give an estimate for repairs (if needed). If the Mac is less than one year old or is covered by AppleCare any repairs would be free.

While trying to back up my iPhone i keep getting the error message that it cannot read the contents of my phone... It then directs me to restore it back to factory settings. Anyone know why this is happening?

I've used this same iTunes account multiple times to back up phones and restore them when I've gotten new devices. I have restored this device as well once before, but i want it as up to date as possible becuase I am getting the iPhone 6 tomorrow. I've run a diagnostics test and under the connectivity test its saying there is no iPhone found, as well as under the sync test. I've gone through all the steps and what the possible problem could be (un-installing and re-installing, making sure all the software is active and up to date on my computer and making sure everything is installed correctly and running properly) and I'm still getting the same error message. I'm out of options and idea. Please help!

Hey avitz99,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone is not recognized in iTunes. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

My Apple ID works when buying apps but when I try to upgrade or buy an in app purchase it tells me my Apple ID cannot be found or my password is wrong does anyone know why this is happening please

Why do I keep getting a message saying my Apple ID Connor be found or my password is wrong when trying to upgrade apps or get in app purchases it's only since I updated my software?

I Just signed in to find the answer to this too. I started having the same trouble today.

HT1386 My iPad and pc are synced but the iPad is only showing a few of my many hundred albums stored in iTunes on my pc. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Question in the subject title...

I have to admit that iTunes Match is out of my league because I do not use it. Turning that off might make the difference, but turning it off might screw everything up as well. I know very, very little about iTunes Match, but that does present a different spin on this.
Knowing the very little that I do know, with iTunes Match on - there should be no reason to sync the albums since they should be available on your iPad via Settings>iTunes and App Stores>iTunes Match>On.
Hopefully someone that uses Match will chime in.

Hi experts,
After releasing the order in the same screen user updating the quantity in process order in sap pp.
How to control it.
can any help in this regards
Thanking you,
Rishit.

Hi Rishit,
You can control it by BAdi WORKORDER_UPDATE method AT_SAVE make error message if there is any change in quantity.
Or you can create Transaction Variant through SHD0 for CO02 and make field Total Qty (CAUFVD-GAMNG) as output only.

Does anyone know why when i change a contacts number and then try to send them a message the old number still pops up??

Does anyone know why when I change a contacts number and then try to send them a message the old number pops up aswell??

The phone remembers recently used numbers just like how Mail remembers recently used email addresses. As time goes by the phone will eventually forget unused number that are not in your contacts as long as you do not use it. Same for unused email addresses that are not in your contacts.

I recently updated the software on my ipad2 to 5.0.1 and when I send a message via "chat" it shows on all the iPhones associated with my account (my sisters, my husbands, etc) is there a way to stop that?

If you have been using your phone as recommended, you should have minimal data loss from the inability to restore from a backup.
Contacts and calendars should be synched to a computer application like Outlook or Address Book (or a cloud service like Google Contacts or iCloud). The update process does NOT affect these computer applications so your contacts and calendars should be safe and sound in the application ready for synching back to your phone.
Same for photos. It is recommended that photos be imported to your computer as soon as possible after taking them (just as you would import them from any other camera) for storage, archival and safekeeping. Again, your photos should be safe and sound on your computer.
If you've not been using your computer as recommended, you've learned a very hard lesson, I'm afraid.

I have been working on the same numbers file for the past few weeks. The last time I opened it was 1 week ago. Today when I tried to open it I am unable and getting a message that the file is invalid and the index.xml file is missing.

Hi Tracie,
I upgraded to Maverick OS X 10.9.5, numbers spreadsheet is saved. Upon re-opening, it appears to be frozen, a warning "file is invalid as index.xml file is missing". I checked, and the file is not "locked". This appears to occur only with using the new numbers app. When I open previous spreadsheets from old iWorks, no such problem occurs.
How did you resolve your problem?
Would appreciate any help here.
Thanks,

When I attach a JPG file in my email and send it to a Windows friend they get the message "The file type being saved or retrieved has been blocked when they try to open it." Anyone know why and how to fix this problem?

Your Windows friend should ask in a Windows forum why his email client won't open attached jpg files. We have no idea what email client he is using or how his Windows security is configured.

Check to make sure you are not typing your message in the Subject line. If you are, it won't let you send the message. Cut and paste the message into the Message field and you should be all set.
FYI, you can disable the Subject line from your messages in Settings/Messages.

Why some emails sent with OS X Mail is not delivered, and if I send the same e mail from the website of my hosting provider, to the same recipients, they are delivered?

Sometime, when I send an email with my Mac Book Pro, i receive the message:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at smtplqs01.aruba.it.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
But if I try to send the same messagge, at the same email address, from the web site of my hosting providere, ther are not problem...
Someone can help me?
Thanks!!!

Could be a number of things, among them the fact that the recipient's inbox is full, or his/her ISP email server is a bit slow at hand-shaking with yours, and this of course can vary depending on the fact that the recipient's account is IMAP or POP.
When you send an email from a webmail, the grunt work is done by the SMTP server, and it's up to it to manage the multiple requests, their number, their frequency, their routing, etc... When you send an email from your Mail app, it'll send it once to your SMTP server, who'll process it a certain number of times before giving up, but you'll receive only one failure message.
If the recipient's an Microsoft Exchange account, you must know that those servers sometimes send and receive email in bulk, and at a variable refresh rate, hence the "Sorry, your email couldn't be distributed...".

TS4083 My folders that message rules divert emails to don't update when I open Mail on my iPad or iPhone. Only the inbox does. I have to click on each folder for it to update. Is there a way around this? The folders update on my mac fine when i check mail

My folders that my message rules on iCloud divert emails to don't update when I open Mail on my iPad or iPhone. Only the inbox does. I have to click on each folder individually for it to update. A real pain as I have about 30 folders. Is there a way around this ? The folders update on my mac fine when i check mail without having to select each one of them. Can the iPad and iPhone do the same thing?

My Mac has 4 mail accounts coming into it, but you are correct, one of them is a POP account, (and unfortunately it is the main @ account, and is the one associated with my apple id, since we've had it for years). I couldn't figure out how to replace this with the Imap version, short of deleting that account entirely.
Is this what I have to do?
Thanks for your help!

Starting in 2015 I get the following error when I try to import my photos. "The following files were not imported because they could not be read" -DSC8416.NEF I've been importing the same type of photos with no errors then 2015 came along and now I can

Starting in 2015 I get the following error when I try to import my photos. "The following files were not imported because they could not be read" -DSC8416.NEF I've been importing the same type of photos with no errors then 2015 came along and now I can no longer import.

The error message is misleading, the problem is that you need WRITE privileges added to the destination directory tree.
Assuming you are using the "date" structure that LR defaults to, find the directory that contains the 2014 folder (the one that works) and add WRITE rights to the parent of "2014".
While you are there, if you want, add "2015" folder to beside "2014" and add READ and WRITE rights to that new directory.
