Why can't my sister in laws iPhone 4s send my iPhone 4s an SMS message???

Since she got her iPad now I'm not receiving any SMS messages from her iPhone to my iPhone all texts come from her apple ID email address as iMessages only. Her send as SMS when iMessages aren't available is turned on.  So what to do? She does however receive my SMS and always my iMessages.

Have you tried a hard reset (holding the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time until the screen goes black and the apple logo appears)? If so, and if you're still having issues, have you tried to restore through iTunes as a backup? If so, and if you're still having problems, have you tried restoring through iTunes as a new device?

  • Why can I no longer backup my Iphone to Outlook using ITunes?

    Why can I no longer backup my Iphone to Outlook using ITunes?
    for 6 months I never had a problem as it was indicated on Itunes but now the word OUTLOOK has disappeared from the screen!

    "Anyone know why? "
    Not I.  I have no such issue, nor does anyone I know.

    We are certainly able to use our own music.  I do it often.

    Is what legal?  That you have an issue with your system?  Yes, that is legal.

    You must have had find my iPhone on, or it was locked by your phone carrier.
    Call your our cell carrier first.
    then log on to a computer to iCloud to erase your iPhone.  
    NOW... You will be able to setup with a backup.

    Why can't I back up my iPhone 4S to iCloud via my Mac?

    Hello paulfromclarendon hills,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To backup your iPhone, you can either use iCloud on your iPhone, or use iTunes on your computer.  Take a look at the support article below to learn more about backing up your iOS device.

    Why can,t I bluetooth pair my iPhone 3GS with my new iPad, it does not even show up as discoverable. What can I do to fix this

    For what purpose are you trying to pair them?
    Only supported peer to peer apps such as photo transfer or multiplayer games can connect to other iOS devices via Bluetooth. You initiate the connection inside the app running on both devices.

  • HT4783 why can't airdrop work between iOS (iphone) and OSX (Mac Computers)?

    why can't airdrop work between iOS (iphone) and OSX (Mac Computers)?

    NNot sure if anyone help you resolve this or if it works with Mavericks but with Yosemite I couldn't send From iPhone 5 or iPad mini 2 because my Macbook Pro wasn't able to be seen via AirDrop. After a grueling 4 hours with support and factory resets of both devices I was transferred to the CPU Support team, which resolved my issue in about 3 mins. Needless to say I wasn't happy but figured I should help anyone else in the same boat as me. I have both devices operating on iOS 8 and MacBook pro rubbing Yosemite.
    1. Open Finder Window -> Airdrop -> Change setting for "Allow me to be discovered by:" to no one and close the finder window.
    2. Go To Apple Logo -> Force Quit -> Select Finder from App List -> Force Quit.
    3. Open Finder Window -> Airdrop -> Change setting for "Allow me to be discovered by:" to everyone and try to send file from iPad / iPhone to computer.
    This process allowed the computer to be seen / recornized on the iOS deVice. Hope this helps.

  • Why can't I download projects from iPhone to computer through iTunes to clear space on my device?

    Why can't I download projects from iPhone to computer through iTunes to clear space on my device?

    Yeah, I have this problem too.  Since the HD purchase usually includes the SD movie too, I am perfectly content to watch SD on my Windows computer and HD on my AppleTV.
    Only workaround I've found for this is to buy the HD version of the movie on my iPad.  Then, download it to my computer via iTunes or by transferring it from my iPad.  I hear you can buy it on an iPhone too (4 or 4s) and achieve the same result.
    But that's a terrible workaround.  I have a number of other HD movies I've purchased with previous versions of iTunes, so this is absolutely something that Apple has introduced relatively recently.

  • Why can't I get my web forms to send to adobe webmail?

    I’m a newbie with Business Catalyst. So please bare with me.
    Why can’t I get my web forms to send to adobe webmail accounts? The forms work fine with my email accounts hosted elsewhere.

    Are the webmail addresses being used by site admins and users?
    I suspect you have set up the site admins and users to use your other email accounts.

  • Why can't I get alert tones when I send or receive email.  I checked Sounds and volumes are at max.

    Why can't I get alert tones when I send or receive email.  I checked Sounds and volumes are at max.

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • Why can't I watch videos that my daughter sends to me from her iPad   I am very new on my ipad2

    Why can't I watch videos that my daughter sends me from her iPad?  I am very new on my ipad2.  I have no idea what my operating system is.

         Under the iPad specifications they support the following video types:
    iPad: Technical Specifications
    AirPlay Mirroring to Apple TV support at 720p
    Video mirroring and video out support: Up to 1080p with Apple Digital AV Adapter or Apple VGA Adapter (adapters sold separately)
    Video out support at 576p and 480p with Apple Component AV Cable; 576i and 480i with Apple Composite AV Cable (cables sold separately)
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
         The iPad and iPad 2 support the same video types. You cannot open a .mov file via e-mail to the best of my knowledge (on iPad). Only YouTube videos and app specific videos* can be opened via e-mail on the iPad.
    * Such as PBS News Hour, TED, etc.
         If both of you use a social network such as Facebook she could upload the videos and can post them on your wall.

  • Why can't I use find my iphone?

    Hello,
    so, I have an iPhone 4S with ios 7. Very nice. I also have find my Iphone installed, and iCloud enabled. All well. So I lost my iPhone 4S, thought to track it down with find my iPhone as I could still call my iPhone. My girl friend uses my old iPhone 3GS, so I thought just get "find my iPhone" on here phone, and track my 4S. Well, nice try, but doesn't work. It requires iOs 7!!! So I couldnt track my iPhone. Than I tried to use a friends iPhone 4, but he didnt have iOs 7 installed as well. I tried using icloud.com on Safari, it tells me to install the app............
    Why can't I install an app, which used to work on a 3GS anymore? I would guess that most people keep their old iPhones, and use it when the new iPhone was lost or stolen. Big surprise that it doesnt work.
    Thanks for that.
    Regards,
    Florian

    I do understand the backwards compatibility argument only partly. If I had an iPhone 3GS with Find my Iphone installed ages ago, I would be able to track my iPhone even with an old iPhone. I do understand that new Versions of an App can not support als iOS, but they could keep old Versions for old iOS devices. It is bad enough that the 3GS is not supported anymore with iOS, now all the apps start to not work anymore.
    There are other apps with offer that, a warning messages comes up that the latest for the iOS supported Version will be installed, but it is not the latest overall Version. I am happy with that, but apple doesnt seem to do it for their own, very usefull apps, which a very unusefull for me now.
