WHY CAN'T MY iOS 7 text HTC ONE?

WHY CAN'T MY iOS 7 text HTC ONE? After a close friend bought an HTC One she cannot receive any texts from me. I've tried many solutions I found on youtube and searches. Even support at Verizon helped me try different ideas. Nothing works. Can anyone help?

Hi marty101,
If your friend recently switched from an iPhone to the HTC One, your iPhone may still be trying to message them via iMessage. You may find the following article helpful:
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.

    Do I really have to have my LTE/3G data enabled in order to send/receive group text messages????  YES.
    If so, that's a complete waste of my data package as far as I'm concerned. ... I'm not sure why I can't send/receive group text messages as plain texts????
    Group messages are considered MMS, not SMS.  MMS is transmitted over the cellular (data) network.  It does NOT use your data plan, it uses your texting allowance.  But data DOES need to be enabled to send and receive group and picture texts.

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

    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.

  • Why can't people send a text message to my new iPad phone number

    Why can't people send a text message tou my new iPad phone number? I just got this iPad for my birthday and my wife has secretly told everyone the new number to send text messages to as a surprise when I onpened it... but none came through.

    Only individuals with iOS devices can message you and they must message you via the email address(es) associated with your Apple ID.
    They cannot message a phone number unless you have an iPhone associated with the account.

  • Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?  Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

    Apple is great!
    Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?  Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).
    I compose an iMessage with the destination as my email address and I attach 2 photos I want on my PC.  I send them several times from my iPhone 5C but they never arrive. I look at my ipad later and realize that it's iMessage app is getting ( and swallowing) these emails. I then turn the ipad off.  Still can't get the photos through because iphone is now getting them on it's iMessage.  I turn off the iMessage feature and try to send photos from text msging.  Phone tells me it can't send photos unless iMessage it turned on.  What happened to regular MMS text messaging?  I go and try to send photos as an email attachment and see that there is no option to attach from the stupid email program.  I look up online to learn about the brave new world of apple attachments and send them.
    Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?
    The email program on my iphone is not configured to remove messages from the server.
    If iMessage is turned off I don't have the issue.
    Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

    Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

    You can also find non-Apple utility programs that will allow you to transfer your text messages to your computer.

  • Why can't iPad mini send text to non apple users????? I wish I knew this before purchase

    Why can't iPad mini send text to non apple users????? I wish I knew this before purchase

    iMessage is from Apple to communicate with other Apple devices.
    iPad is not a phone and does not have SMS/MMS services from a carrier. There are apps that can do this, search the App Store.

  • Why can't I send a text message while talking on the phone?

    Today I was on the phone and received an important text.  I tried to answer it, but received the message that it was not delivered.  I had to end my call to send the text.  Why can't I send a text or get directions from Google Maps while I am on the call?

    Google Voice allows texting (and is useful for other things as well). If you're not in the U.S., I don't have any suggestions beyond searching the App Store for "Text" or "SMS". In the U.S., there are a number of apps that allow texting to other people who have the app (much the same way iMessage works) but there are a few that will also allow texting to other phones.
    Best of luck.

  • Why can't I send multiple texts any more? I am on iphone 5 and it is only allowing me to send messages to 10 people at once! Previously on iphones 3 and 4s I could send to many more.

    Why can't I send multiple texts any more? I am on iphone 5 and it is only allowing me to send messages to 10 people at once! Previously on iphones 3 and 4s I could send to many more. I use my phone for work and want to send to multiple staff groups or project leaders the same information at the same time and not all of them have email capable phones so text has always been the best solution.
    Please help ?

    22ms is a long time for your computer, but I am wondering about your network. Are you 10 base or 100 base? Switch or hub? Have you tried a direct connection with a crossover cable? Just trying to spark ideas here. I use TCP all the time but only at 500 ms intervals.

  • Why can`t i send a message to one of my contacts? i can call her

    why can`t i send a message to one of my contacts? i can call her and recive messages.

    The person that you want to reach must be setup and registered to use Messages on their own device before you can reach them and Messages only works with other iOS users and Macs running Mountain Lion. If you know that they are setup for Messages go to Settings>Messages>Show Subject Field>Off. Make sure it is turned off.

  • Why can´t I use original HPinkcartridges from one HP printer to another HPprinter it says use origin

    why can´t I use original HPinkcartridges from one HP printer to another HP printer, it says use original cartridges -
    but they are original?

    If the printers are identical that should not be a problem. If the printers are not identical then it simply will not work. Each printer uses different cartridges unless it is from the same model group as the other.  
    In analogy that would be like asking why the spark plugs from a Porsche don't work in your PT Cruiser.

    You will be able to do copy & paste when 3.0 comes out this summer.

    No. You would make changes to the address book on your PC and then sync via iTunes.
