Why cant my iphone 5 send text messages without getting and not delivered message?

Whenever you send a text message it comes up non-deliverable. Is there a solution for that?

Have you turned on SMS in settings >> messages?

  • I keep getting a "not delivered" message when I try to send a picture through imessage

    Over the last week each time I sent a picture in iMessage it goes out then I get a "Not Delivered" message. The other person gets the picture even though it says not delivered.  I've shut iMessage off then back on, I've done a hard shutdown/restart.  I'm not sure what else to do.  Is anyone else having this issue and been able to resolve it?
    Thank you!

    If that's a 'soft' reset, then what's a 'hard' reset?

  • Why does my iPhone send texts instead of iMessages occasionally?

    I will be in a lengthy conversion and I will look back at the conversation and several of my messages will have been sent as texts. These cost me a fee every single time. Why can't iMessage send iMessages each time? This problem causes iMessage to be of little or no use to me because rather than saving me money it is costing me money. Do I literally have to stop and verify each time that it isn't sending a text? How can I force my phone not to send texts at all, only iMessages to my iMessage users?

    I'm not sure you read my post correctly. I am in a lengthy conversation and SOME of my messages will be texts. Some of them are also sent as iMessages. This means that I am conversing with an iPhone and that they have iMessage turned on. iMessaging a non-iPhone would is obviously impossible. So, it is a phone that I was sending iMessages to and at some point they changed over to texts but I didn't notice because I was in a conversation and assumed they would keep sending as iMessages.  In my view, it should notify you or something if you've just sent an iMessage to someone and then a few seconds later you send another message and it turns out to be a text. It makes it rather difficult to use since you have to verify every single time your reply is indeed being sent as an iMessage.

  • Why do I get a 'not delivered' message when I send a text? The recipient does receive the text.

    When I send an iMessage it says 'delivered', but as soon as the other person reads it it changes to 'not delivered'. But the recipient actually does read the message and replies back. The other person gets the same messages if they are messaging me, but not when they are messaging other people. The problem seems to be at my end.

    I've noticed that this happens a lot to me with some people who are connected to corporate wifi.

  • Why is it that when I go to the search screen to find a particular message in a conversation it comes up with the message but when I click on it it takes me to the conversation where the most recent message was sent and not the message I wanted

    Why is it that when I go to the search screen and type in a particular message I want to view, my iPhone finds it but when I click on it it only takes me to the conversation at the most recently thing texted and not the particular message I clicked on?

    Never occurred to me you can search messages that way, thanks.
    Another way to do it is to scroll from the most recent message to the top of the screen and tap load more messages, repeatedly till you reach the one you want.
      I like your method better, but with both methods it refreshes to the most recent message.

  • Messages on my ipage will not send. I have tried everything suggested and still I get a not delivered message

    Since I have upgraded to iOS 7 messages on my ipad will not send. I get a red message saying not delivered I have tried everything suggested so far, still nothing.

    I'm having the same problem with my Wife's old iPhone 3G.  It's battery went completely dead and now all it does when I hit the power button is shows the screen that shows the animated charger/battery saying to plug it into a charger and then it shuts off.  The thing is, it's plugged into a charger, I've tried several, I've tried getting into DFU mode to restore 4.2.1 and see if that would help but I can't get into DFU mode because the iPhone shuts off before it gets a chance to load I suppose.
    If I find a solution that works to get the iPhone out of this quirk/bug mode it's in right now from the battery dying, I will post it here so you can fix your iPhone as well.
    Best of luck with finding your solution to fix this!  We're both probably going to need it because so far I've searched for the answer for the past hour and still can't get it to even start charging.

  • Why do I get a "not delivered" message when using iMessage???

    When I text my husband, the iMessage fails every time.  We only get texts from each other if not using iMessage and just using texting. 
    We are having so many problems with iCloud!
    I'm guessing we didn't set up the account right from the beginning. 
    Can anyone pleae help?!!?

  • Keep getting not delivered message when I send a text

    I keep getting a not delivered message when I send a text.  The message actually does send but still very annoying. This started when I did the update. Any one have any fix ideas

    Try sending it as a regular text message... turn off iMessage.

  • Anyone having problem with iphone getting not delivered message after sending picture and it really is getting delivered to recipient.

    Anyone having problem with iphone getting a not delivered message after sending pic and it really is getting delivered to recipient.

    Same problem here with and I've done everything shy of a total reset which I also find unacceptable. This problem exists on all iMessage platforms (iPhone, iPad, and Mac) so I don't see how restoring my iPhone would help the problem.

  • I get constant "Not Responding" messages and Thunderbird freezes. I've done everything suggested on this forum. Nothing helps.

    I've done everything I can find in this forum - using Safe mode, changing McAfee settings, etc., etc., etc. I downloaded Thunderbird again and reinstalled it. Nothing helps. I can look at one email but if I try to delete it I get the "Not responding" message. If I try to go to the next message I get the "not responding" message. If I try to do anything while the screen is frozen, it goes grey and I get the "not responding" message. Short of changing my email viewer, is there anyway I can fix it.

    I have this problem too and it is EXTREMELY frustrating!!!
