Why can't i use imessage to my friend in australia

I used to have an android phone and had viber on it to be able to text my friend in Australia. Since switching to the iphone and downloading the viber app...it refuses to do anything. We also tried iMessage since the friend also has iphone and it won't work. Any help in this area would be awesome!!

If your using imessage you must set it up correctly. As for the app you will have to get a hold of the App devloper.
For imessage you just have to know your fiiends number or apple id.

    I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
    iOS version 6.1.6
    I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
    Here is what finally worked:
    1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
    2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
    3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
    4) Settings > Messages > Sign In

    I'm trying to imessage someone from my macbook air to their iphone. but it said i am unavaliable?? why can't i send imessages anymore???

    Hi,
    The iMessages account in Messages does not list itself as Unavailable.
    AIM, Jabber and Yahoo accounts via their Buddy lists (if shown separately) or the combined List can show as Off line.
    The iMessages Account seems to presume the computer will be on all the time and be connected to a Network continually like an iPhone is.
    It does not indicate when a Contact is Off Line or Unavailable until you try to send an iMessage when it might pop up an alert to say it was not delivered.  (Most likely when a iPhone has lost a Cell/Mobile service coverage as well as WiFi).
    Can you explain what you are seeing and where ?

    Why can't I use my existing email in Face Time and Instant Message?

    Do you have another Apple ID by any chance? There are many, many discussions about this message that you are getting. Here is one where it seems that these users were able to resolve it.

    There are many other past discussions as well. Maybe you can find some help here as well.

  • Why can't I remove iMessage from iCloud backups?

    Why can't I remove iMessage from iCloud backups?
    I've noticed that my iCloud backups are constantly hitting their 5GB max, even after clearing out camera rolls, etc.
    After some testing, I've found that iMessages are also backed up.   For someone like me, I'm constantly sending pictures / videos to friends and family, having a little guy under a year old (but that's not important).
    In any case, it seems you can set iCloud backup for just about every app EXCEPT iMessages.   The only way I've found to solve this is to constantly delete message threads from my iPhone, so that they aren't taking up iCloud space.   But this honestly is a bit of a pain (okay, only a little bit)...  why can't I keep my messages around for as long as I want, without backing them up? 

    Make sure you have their icloud email they use for imessage in their contact information before sending them an imessage.

  • Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

  • Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

    Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

    3-D is very memory intensive.
    System requirements | Photoshop
    Mac OS
    Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
    Mac OS X v10.7, v10.8, or v10.9
    2 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
    3.2 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
    1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with 16-bit color and 512 MB of VRAM (1 GB recommended)**
    OpenGL 2.0–capable system
    Internet connection and registration are necessary for required software activation, membership validation, and access to online services.*
    ** 3D features are disabled and some Mercury Graphics Engine enhanced features may not work with less than 512 MB VRAM. Read the Help article.
    Bottom line, you don't have enough VRAM

  • Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating.

    Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.

    I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.
