Why can't I receive sms from other phones ?

Try going to setting->general->reset-> reset network settings. And see if that works.
You may also want to contact your carrier and see if there is anything funny going on with your profile.
Best of luck let me know if this helps.

Why can't I receive calls from landline phones?

My phone was fine until yesterday. I decided to change my service to another provider and since then I can no longer receive phone calls from landlines to my phone. The phone service has not switched over yet and I still have verizon service and It's the same number, just going to be with a different provider. I can call out and receive calls from cell phones just not landlines, they just go to some voicemail thing. Is this a problem with verizon's service, the fact that the phone is in transition of providers or something else?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, perhaps all the problems aren't gone, I have noise in the line now, and some people who call the line get a taped message, and leave messages on an "answering machine" that is not mine and that I cannot access in any way.
This is not new technology. Come on, Verizon. Why did this stuff work in 1975 and not now?

Why can't I receive messages from a Droid phone on my IPad?..

Why can't I receive messages from a Droid phone on my IPad?..

SMS is part of cellular voice communication.
iPads do not do voice over cellular.
iMessage is Apple devices only.
If you want to send and receive SMS you will have to download an app from the store, such as text+.

To my knowledge, I've only seen this for imessage only and not SMS.
The other users would need to have send read receipts enabled on their phone.

Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

That statement is false. Copied directly from the iTunes Store Terms and Conditions:
"The iTunes Service is available to you only in( Insert country name here). You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance."
You need to be physically located in the country, its territories or possessions whose store you are trying to use.

Why can I login to iTunes from my phone with no problem, but I can't login to iTunes from my desktop.

Why can I login to iTunes from my phone with no problem, but I can't login to iTunes from my desktop using the same login credentials. I can use a different appleID and login to itunes with no problem.

Thanks for your reply. I mean that only when all of my music in the cloud is shown on my phone can I delete the music stored on my phone. I should be able to delete music that is stored on my phone when I can view ONLY the music that is taking up the phone's memory.

Why doen't iphone receive texts from other iphones.

I have recently bought iphone 5C for the first time, I have had an ipad for a long time which I use for imessages through wifi.   I thought that when I am out and about away from wifi I would receive sms/text from other iphones like I had with my previous basic mobile, but this doesn't happen, although I can send texts to other iphones. Also when I return to a wifi area imessage that have been picked up by my ipad then don't appear on my iphone. When both the iphone and ipad are using wifi when an imesssage is received the message appears on both devices. Is this usual as I would like to receive texts from other iphones as it could be important.

Is iMessage turned on your phone?    It doesn't sound like it.
I would disable iMessage on BOTH your iPad and iPhone.   Enable it on iPhone first, then iPad 2nd.
Try again and let us know if it's working properly.

Why can I not order music from other countries

Hello,
why can I not order music from either germany or austria if the canadian itunes does not have it?
I don't mind paying in euros or paypal, which ever.
I think the stores should be compatable or should allow buying from another country.
Thanks, Ingo

The short answer is that the content owners do not allow Apple to sell content across country borders. It's not by Apple's choice.

Why can I only delete music from my phone (with itunes match) when "show all music" is selected

This is pretty messed up... I can't delete any music from my phone unless I have the "show all music" command turned on. This is the complete opposite from how it should be. Please get it together, Apple!

Thanks for your reply. I mean that only when all of my music in the cloud is shown on my phone can I delete the music stored on my phone. I should be able to delete music that is stored on my phone when I can view ONLY the music that is taking up the phone's memory.

Why can't I receive sms on skype?

I paid for skype credit specifically so that I could send and recieve texts. Why can't people return skype texts? I would not have paid for the service if I knew it was only for sending, since you can send text messages for free online!

I also want to know the answer to this question. I'm willing to buy a Skype ONLINE NUMBER if it means that I can recieve return SMS.
You can't receive SMS messages with Skype's Online Numbers.
In most countries, these Online Numbers are either "landline" or some other special Voice-over-IP class of number, not a mobile number. If you have a mobile number set up as Caller ID with your Skype account, SMS messages can be sent from Skype and carry that mobile number as the "sender" of the message. Replies would then go to the mobile number, not to Skype.
