    Hi evan191,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some steps you can try if your messages aren't sending as iMessages:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    If you still can't send or receive iMessages
    Ensure that iMessage is turned on in Settings > Messages.
    To send and receive iMessages, your device must have a valid cellular or Wi-Fi data connection.

    iMessage registration validates your Apple ID for use with iMessage. If you are unable to activate iMessage, follow this article.
    If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will be resent using SMS or MMS, depending on the content. You can turn this behavior on or off in Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Carrier messaging rates may apply.
    Verify that the Apple ID or phone number is listed in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

  • PI 7.1 Sender Interface and Receiver Interface  gets interchanged

    Hi All,
    I m facing a strange problem in PI 7.1
    For many of my scenarios, the Sender Interface, sender namespace and receiver Interface, receiver namespace  information gets interchanged and displayed incorrectly.
    But sometimes its working fine.
    When we analysed the Log messages, found that, after xml validation step, the sender and reciever interface gets interchanged.
    Any idea why this happens?
    How to rectify this error?

    Aarthi,
    Please check your message interfaces once again. Sender is outbound and Receiver is inbound.
    Also please check your receiver determination.
    Regards,
    ---Satish

  • Why can I send  but not receive them?

    Why can I send  but not receive them?

    Macrumors posted a solution for this.  I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
    Here's what they said:
    1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
    3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages

    This is a problem with your carrier. You can contact them and ask why you cannot send text messages. Have you tried restarting your phone or restoring it yet?

    Im having trouble sending messages from my iPhone 4..ever since i upgraded to iOS 5, its giving me this problem. It says your SMS mailbox is full. Delete some messages to recieve new messages. 
    I've deleted around 10 huge conversations, rebooted it, restored it, done a soft and hard reset too. What should i do?

    my boyfriend restored his iphone as a brand new phone and still had this problem, he deleted all his text conversations except mine and his best friend's conversations still nothing, i told him to delete OUR conversation since its a 2 year conversation that he has NEVER deleted ..... he said YES!! we tried to delete it and the phone freezes as soon as we click on the CLEAR CONVERSATION button!!!! we tried about 5 times and this happened everytime we tried!!!! ....is like the phone doesnt wanna let go of our conversation!!! every other conversation he deleted the phone was fine except for when we try and delete ours!!
    so yesterday he left his phone alone around 4 pm since we have the apple appointment today at 130pm.......around 11 pm last night his phone went NUTS receiving all the text messages i had sent and never received!!!! and now the phone works just fine!!! ...... CONFUSED?????? yeah we are too!!!
    but we're still going to the apple store to see what they can tell us!!!

  • HT1267 I am unable to send messages on my iPhone.  I am getting an error when I send it. This just started this morning.

    This is my first timeo n Apple Support.  Suddenly this morning I am unable to send messages through my iPhone.  I can send messages to one number, but all the other numbers I am sending to I receive an error message.  Also, I can receive messages from the one number I can send to, but am unable to receive messages from any other number.  What do I do to fix this? 

    Hi Steve,
    No he has not turned iMessage off, infact when he sends me a message thru iMessage it says 'delivered'. I am at my wits end nd I don't know what to do anymore.

  • Sender DEBIT and receiver DEBIT

    Dear all,
    I notice in settlement, there are 2 button : sender and receiver. Now, what confused me is why both also called sender debit and receiver debit?
    Why both also DEBIT?
    Please advise me.
    Thanks

    Dear All,
    I see mostly it is like that where sender debit and receiver debit. If you go into KO88 previous settlement, you will get this.
    I read in forum also it is explaining in debit.
    You assign the debit cost element groups to a settlement cost element.
    You settle by cost element - that is, the debit cost element is the settlement cost element.
    so i would like to know why the title is sender debit and receiver debit. why both debit.
    thanks
