Which phones can be sent text messages?

On the iPad the Message app will ONLY send iMessages to other iOS Devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) that have activated iMessage.
There are 3rd party apps, such as Free Text, that will allow sending text messages in SMS format to other devices.

  • N95 can not sent text messages

    Hi,
    I have been using my N95 since UK release without a problem but now it is refusing to send texts. When I try to send one, it goes to my outbox with status 'Resend in...', tries a few times then fails telling me that the memory is full. I can still recieve texts and I can send and recieve MMSs. I've seen a couple of previous posts about this but none had conclusions.
    I am on O2 and am running V11.0.026. I am not running any other applications. These are the things I have tried so far:
    Restarting the phone, Resetting the message settings, Deleting all messages (inbox, outbox, sent, drafts, emails), Setting the 'Memory in Use' to my memory card and to phone memory, Sending to different phone numbers.
    If anyone has any ideas about what to try before resoring Factory Settings then I would be very happy to listen.
    Thanks for reading

    I can send text messages within Australia without difficulty but many of my international texts are not delivered. Has anyone had similiar problems.

    SMS text messages are handled by your cellular carrier.
    Check with them.

  • TS4268 Can any one tell me how my husband and I can stop receiving text messages sent to him on my phone?

    Can any one tell me how my husband and I can stop receiving text messages sent to him on my phone? His text messages to me are showing up under my number, like he is me?

    Go to settings, messages, send and recieve, scroll to where it says start new conversation from, and make sure you each have a different email address checked instead of the same email address.

  • I am having tremendous difficulty sending simple voice text messages, or typed text messages to non I-phone users. Picture text messages will not send at all and can only be sent to other i-phone users. Is anyone else haing this problem ??  Big concern

    Well this is stupid - I wrote the question above and now it is telling me the message is blank - how dumb is this.
    I am having tremendous difficulty sending sipmle typed texts, voice texts and picture text messages to non I- phone users.
    Simple text messages are sporadic and seem to be impacted by whether I incluse a subject or not - picture texts will not go at all.
    Anyone else having this problem ???

    It's a corporate phone so will need to check. Will not send text messages to non I-phones if they contain a "subject" or a picture.  Wierd - regular voice or typed text messages are fine.

  • How can i remove the phone number from the text messages that i receive in the notification center

    how can i remove the phone number from the text messages that i receive in the notification center?

    You choose whether to see text messages in Notification Center or not.  If you elect to see them, they will display the phone number (unless they are from a contact in your contacts list).
    You can choose not to see them at Settings > Notification Center > Messages.

  • Can I send already sent text messages to my computer to print them?

    Can I send already sent text messages to my computer to print them?

    The only way I know of to save a Text message for printing is to copy it to your memo's and then print it out through the desktop software. Unfortunately there is no way to save a text message on the desktop otherwise and there is no way to print directly from the text message software. You can store them in the "saved" folder if you want as well, but that won't copy them to the desktop or allow them to print.

  • Can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back

    can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back...help taking up a lot of space.

    Try this...
    Close out all apps (double click the home button and swipe up) then delete one thread.  Do a hard reset of the phone or ipad, then wait a few minutes and it should be gone.  I just did this with a thread that had thousands of txt and it worked for me.  The older phones just don't have much processing power.

  • Upgraded to  new samsung galaxy s4 from a I phone 4 and I can't receive text messages from anyone with an I phone.

    I upgraded to a new Samsung Galaxy S 4 from an IPhone 4 and I can't get text messages from anyone who has an IPhone.

    Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
    They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

  • Can you send text messages by your ipod?

    please help beacuse i have no phone *hehe* so jsut answer the question

    There are apps available in the App store that allows you to sent text messages to phones and other devices. Text+ is one such app. Some apps charge for the texts similar to a phone if you do not send to another device using the same app.
    WIth iOS 5 you can use the Messages app to text to another iOS 5 device.
