why can i send imessage texts but not sms texts ?
When i try to send an sms text ..i get a 'not delivered' message...no error code...imessage works fine...

Very strange, [email protected] Let's get this figured out. Make sure that SMS messages are turned on. Go to Settings>Messages>Send as SMS. Please let me know if this works.

Why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)?

I am using iTunes 11.0 and can sync a movie (Miracle on 34th Street) to my new ipod nano 7th gen but when I try a TV Show (a Planet Earth HD episode) or even a brief video clip taken with my camara I am told that such an action is not permitted on this ipod. So why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)? Thank you.

Before you can sync video files, it must be converted into a format compatible with ipod. If you can’t sync a video convert it by doing the following:
In iTunes, select the video you want to convert. Do one of the following then sync again after:
1) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPod or iPhone Version.
2) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version.
I hope this works.

On my iPad I can only send iMessages but not all my friends have an I pad or iPhone how can I send other messages too

You will need to download a texting App from the App Store. I have seen Text + recommended on the forum.

Why can I send FaceTime calls but can't recieve calls

Why can I call on FaceTime but unable to recieve calls?

Do you mean that your phone doesn't ring? Or that callers get voicemail immediately?
If the calls are going straight to voicemail, and your phone never rings, I'd suggest calling your carrier and have them check your account.

Why can i send imessages to every other person with an iPhone but not one person

I can send an imesage message to every other person with an iphone, but not my uncle, who has an iphone 4s. We are both connected to wifi while texting and yet the message still shows up as green. PLEASE HELP

Get him to check he's got iMessage enabled.
Settings->Messages->iMessage needs to be 'ON'.
Also in the same screen check what addresses he has under "Send & Receive" to ensure you're using one of those (or his phone number).

Why can't send iMessages from my Mac to my iPhone anymore and opposide?

Since today I can't send any iMessage from my Mac to my iphone and opposite. If I try to send it from my phone to my e-mail(which I have to recieve on my PC, or I used to, it says "Not delivered" or If I try to send a iMessage from my Mac to my iphone, I automaticly recieve that iMessage, but instead on my phone its on my PC again, just on different box. I think there is something to do with my accounts, but I have tried anything possible and I can't figure this out!

HI,
Just to be clear.
There are three folders called "Library" on a Mac with only the original Admin account. *see fourth Library below.
If you open the Hard Drive to it's top level then you can read Library, System and Users (As well as Applications and anything you have put here.
If you open the System one then there is a Library folder as the next step there.
Also in Users > the name of your Account (Little House icon) then there is one in here.
However since Lion this has been Invisible.
Using the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and entering ~/Library will open a window in that Library
You can also make the Folder Visible on permanent basis if you need to.
Generally Spotlight will not display the results from the ~/Library which is why you will not find it this way.
Fourth Library.
Since Sandboxing came into being the Containers folder has many "Library" folders that apply to each app that can be sandboxed.
Basically all are at the same depth of Containers/Data/App Name/Library.
As you say it is working I would not worry too much about it.
I have just finished installing OS X 10.9.3 and my Users folder seems to be the next one to become Invisible.

Why can I surf on Firefox, but not on Safari?

Hi,
I'm running an iBook G4 with 10.4.8 on it. My DSL internet connection is through an apartment server, requiring its own manual network configuration to work. That is the easy part...it took a week to figure out the proxies (the local staff and their command of english is Ok but not that good) and I got Firefox up and running. It has been working great for a month.
But one thing is puzzling me, why can't Safari see that I have a functioning DSL internet connection? I am using the same manual configuration for the connection and I have made sure that every program that needs this connection can see it. This problem is, in fact, bigger than just Safari. None of my Apple programs (including Network Diagnostics), Yahoo Messenger or Google Earth can see my working internet connection. I'm perplexed! Any ideas?

Hi, CatherineTW.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your Bluetooth device is connected during playback of these videos. Try changing the audio source to iPhone or disconnect the Bluetooth device when playing videos.

Why can I connect to test but not to friends

Sigh.
My on going issues with iChat continues. Basically we have all but given up and for many weeks have just not bothered using our 'it just works' video chat.
One question that keeps popping up is why can I connect to the apple test, why can my friends connect to the apple test, but why can we not connect to each other?
More over we could all connect to each other prior to 10.4, no hardware or ISP has changed.
I do appreciate the amount of help coming out of these boards, especially from Ralph, but the question has to be asked yet again, what are apple doing about this issue, everything was just fine with iChat in 10.3, I know I am not alone.
Anyway if anyone can offer advice on why a ZOOM X4 router/modem or a Draytek Vigor 2600 does not work correctly or anyone is able to use these modems I would appreciate a reply. I would also like info on setting them up, even though they were just fine before.

Ahh Draytek.....
Possibly SIP aware and causing these problems.
Symptoms:
A small group of Buddies that you can connect to all the time.
Another small group of Buddies you can connect to now and then.
Depending on the size of your Buddy list, a larger group of non successful contacts.
Solution
Unbind SIP from port 5060 in the modem.

Instructions and the pic of a Terminal window with the instructions and result s as they occur in full.
Edit
For the Zoom I looked at this page I can not see that this has the UPnP setting which would be easiest to set up.
The page tells you and shows you what the set up pages look like to achieve Port Forwarding.
Have you done this ?
Second Edit.

Not sure if this is exactly the same model.
Rule 4 should be UDP in the pics lower down.

Why can i browse most websites, but not others?

Basically, I am trying to access few websites and when I try opening them it is constantly loading but won't open.. I could access these websites last night, but for some reason they won't load now. There is no error message, but keeps on loading. I use google chrome, but the same problem persists with Safari and Firefox. I have connection to the internet and I can access a majority of other websites at usual speed. When i leave the 'problem' websites loading for some time i can see that after 10 minutes or so the website partially opens but other parts remain blank and thus remains unusable. I cleared all my cookies, history, cache and everything. Reset my modem. Tried browsing the internet for solutions but nothing seems to work and other solutions are too technical for me to understand.
Thanks.

I have connection to the internet
Assuming you mean wireless rather than through ethernet:
Try the basics first:
Change your router channel number. Most times this works & is all you have to do.
Disconnect & reconnect your modem. unplug it for about 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Do the same for Apple’s routers. Wait for everything to reboot.
System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

Why can I delete individual messages, but can only clear (delete) ALL "recent" calls? It should be possible to delete individual calls!

Because you can't. Plain and simple. This is asked at least once a day here.

Why can I receive iMessages but not send them?

I'm signed into Apple ID for iMessages and have both wifi and cellular data available but I can't send iMessages! I'm receiving them but can only respond by text. FaceTime is also working!

Macrumors posted a solution for this. I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
Here's what they said:
1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages

Why can I receive iMessages sent to my phone number on my macbook but not my iPad?

Why can I receive iMessages sent to my phone number on my macbook but not my iPad?
My iPhone phone number appeared as a recipient option on my mac as soon as I launched Messages on my iPhone but not on the iPad and I can't find a way to add it.

You do not have an app but you can setup your iMessage on the iPhone and switch it on (as it is since you receive messages on the iPhone).
In the same setup screen under iMessage you should have send receipt, send as SMS and also Send and Receive howmanyadress > Click on here and you will enter a new screen.
On top there should be you Apple ID and under your phone number. Under the phone number you can add some Mail adress to be used for iMessage. I believe it is important ot have the Apple ID on the top of this screen and at least one Apple Mail checked as to be used for iMessage.
This should be enought to get iMessage both on iPhone and Mac.
Try this and let iCloud to sync for few minutes and you should have the data on the Mac too.

Why can i send text messages to one person, but cant get one back?

Do you have that person blocked? Set to Do Not Disturb (Open the conversation thread, tap Details in the upper right, check that DND is set to Off)?
