Why can't I send a text to a contact from my I-pad but can send to that same contact on my I-phone

Are you saying you are successful in sending text messages to Android users from your iPad? I doubt you can do that as iPad does not SMS, which is what a cell phone does, but iPad is not a cell phone. The Message App in iPad was designed to let you send messages to other iOS based devices.
There are Apps you can get from the App Store, like TextFree, which will assign a number to your account, but from iPad you can text all your contacts regardless of type of device. You will however need to let everyone you message with know what number a message would come from as it won't come from your cell number.

Double check to make sure that your same email addresses are set up on both devices in the Messages settings. Also ensure that you have text messaging forwarding turned off if you do not want to receive them on your iPad.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

I can receive emails from three different accounts but can't send a photo. It says the server doesn't allow relaying???

I can receive emails from three different accounts but can't send a photo from them. It says the server doesn't allow relaying???

I have a hard time describing this exactly, so I copied this from another thread. This seems to be a recent issue with AOL email accounts on the iPad the past few days. I have two AOL accounts and they work fine. See if this works for you.
+If you cannot send, under the smtp server your user name and password must be entered even though the prompt tells you it is optional. As a mobile device the port used is different from the one I would normally use if at home and therefore validation is required by use of the password. The normal port for the smtp server is 110 but to use on a mobile unit like the iPad port 587 is used.+
The big thing is to make sure that your username and password are filled in - Select your email account in the Mail setting and tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Outgoing Mail Server and then tap on the arrow next to smtp server under the Primary Server and fill in the information in there.
Some times you have to resort to deleting the account and starting over again.

I can't send mails from my outlook 2010 but can receive, please help.

Thank you so much for your time and help Csound1 I really appreciate it.
Mac mail works perfectly fine so I don't want to screw it up by altering anything there.
However, I've checked to make sure I didn't miss anything on Outlook, but it still won't send messages. I don't know if I need to fill the "Unqualified domain" field?

That's because you can't. You make the contact group on the computer application with which you're synching your contacts. Or you can find an app in the app store.

I have completely downloaded all parts of master suite (I attend AAU so it's provided by school) however, I can get nothing to load and operate. I am still running XP but my understanding is that it should still work for most apps

I believe you need to have XP with Service Pak 3 as a minimum for most CS6 applications. You should check all of the system requirements because I think you also need to have a 64-bit machine as well. Here is a link...

Sending the same email message several times to contacts. Turned off iCloud, but still sending message.

Sending the same email message several times to contacts. Turned off iCloud, but still sending message.
A user had synced all of his contacts from his computer and iPhone to his iCloud. Today, his iCloud sent out the same message 20 times to all recipients. We were able to transfer all calendar items and contacts back to his pc and then disable iCloud. However, it still sent out the messages. Any ideas?

It's a carrier issue. I have AT&T and had this issue with my friend (who had an Android) and my mother (who had a feature phone). Both of them have Verizon for service and I'm thinking the issue was on Verizon's end. They both just dealt with it as we tried all sorts of things to get this sorted out (other than contacting Verizon directly) and had no luck.
They've both switched to iPhones so it's a moot point for us now, at least.

What operating system are you using? Is it on a Mac or a PC? Which preferences are set for external mic/headphones, Audition's or the computers?

apps and music should be in your itunes media library, sync to itunes to get them back on your phone.

* I don't have a jailbreak and my software version is 6.1.3

How are you trying to update, direct on your iPad via Settings > General > Software Update, or via your computer's iTunes ? If via your computer then you will need iTunes 11.1 installed : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
