  • Message send failure when sending text message to none iPhones. Worked fine at apple store now not working for me again ( whether on wifi or cellular) what is wrong?

    Why am I getting message send failure from my iPad to a non-iPhone

    When I was in the Apple store on Friday with my iPad I asked the text the same question. we turned on my iPad and it allowed me to text text message anybody I wanted regardless of what the device. When I left apple store while I'm in the parking lot and I checked it again before I left the area and it still allowed me to text message anybody. Now it is not. And also I cannot email anybody from my iPad today to a non iPhone and that's wrong because until today I have been doing that for weeks. Hmmmm now what

  • Why do i keep getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on iMessage? All are sent to other iPhone/iPad users.

    For a few months now, I've been getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures to other Apple devices (iPhones, iPads, Macs), despite the recipient receiving them. So, even though the pictures are going through, the "Message Send Failure" notice keeps showing up. I checked with other people who have Apple devices and they also encountered the same issue whenever they send pictures (usually send an email to make sure it was received).  I thought when iOS 7.1.1 came out that it would fix this issue. Has anyone else encountered the same issue? Thanks!

    I started getting the error on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.x) several weeks ago - if not a month ago. Today I finally decided to run through a wholesale sign-out/sign-in process on all my devices (iMac, MacBook, iPad 1, iPad 3 and iPhone5) and it worked!
    I signed out of iMessage/Messages on all devices. I also deleted my iCloud accounts on all my devices (make sure you tell the software to keep local copies when you are prompted - relax, it all stays in the cloud, too) Then I signed back in to iMessage/Messages and then re-added iCloud accounts all around. I just sent a message with a photo attachment and did not get the "Not Delivered" message - yay!
    (FYI - even though I received the error every time I sent a message with an image attachment, the message still went through - very, very happy, though to finally get rid of the message...)

  • My 3GS is responding MESSAGE SEND FAILURE when I attach n send photos. Why? And how do I fix it?

    Just started getting a MESSAGE SEND FAILURE response when I attach n send a photo with my texts. Why? How do I fix it?

    Did you try what was suggested on that page i.e. disconnecting the iPad from your computer and turning the iPad off (press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red 'slide to power off' appears on screen and slide that) and then back on ?
    And if the backup doesn't work after that then try a soft-reset instead of the off and on : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • In the past month or so my iPhone 5 battery is dying in hours, whereas it used to last all day at least.  Also, I am getting constant "message send failures" when texting and frequent dropped phone calls.

    Just recently my Iphone 5 battery is dying in a just a few hours, it used to last all day or more.  I'm not doing anything different with it, although I have started shutting down apps etc. to conserve battery.  I get constant "message send failures and frequently dropped phone calls. 

    My best bet would be to restore the phone. Back it up to itunes, and then reset it Factory settings. This way, any corrupt software will be removed, and you can start fresh. Make sure you back it up first. By the sounds of it, you are using the phone for business and probably need the data from it. Hope this helps!

  • Why am I getting "Plug-In Failure" when I try to upload content?

    Hey friends...
    As my title says I'm getting "Plug-In Failure" when I try to upload to sites I need to use for work.
    This happened after I used Clean My Mac to free up some space. Evidently I removed an important Flash Player component. Since then I have removed and replaced Flash Player twice.
    I'm still getting the "Plug-In Failure" on sites like Amazon.com, Ribbet.com, and Gotprint.com. It seems to only happen when I try to upload my content.
    I'm running Lion/10.7.5.
    Any suggestions for me?
    Thanks!

    Have you reset your phone? Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)
    (Most folks here won't know why this is happening)

  • Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?

    Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?

    I'm experiencing something similar. My conversations are kept together but if the screen is opened to a conversation and I receive a text from that person it doesn't show up on the screen. The message alert in the upper corner indicates a new text but I have to back out of the screen and go back in to read it.

  • Why do I get error 150:30 when I try and send a photo to Elements 8?

    Why do I  get error 150:30 when I try and send a photo to Elements 8 from a PC with windows8?

    My wife had this problem for the past few days for a specific phone number. These instructions fixed it -- without having to restore from backup or contact the carrier.
    http://www.timothydeblock.com/blog/2014/5/12/fix-message-sent-using-invalid-numb er-of-digits-msg-2114
    Open Contacts -> select the contact -> select edit -> scroll all the way to the bottom and delete contact (delete multiple entries of the same phone number, my wife had five).
    Open the Messages app -> select Edit -> select the red circle and then select delete. Do this for both the person and the messages you received.
    Open the Settings app -> scroll down and select Messages -> turn off messages, by selecting the switch, and any other options turned on.
    Turn off your phone and then turn it back on.
    Go straight to messages and compose a new message and put in the phone number of the person you're trying to text. Send and that person should receive the text message. Add the person to your contacts and go back into message settings to turn on any other options you want on that you turned off.

  • 5s will send picture texts but i always get a "message send failure" text back

    I have an iphone 5s, and every time I send a picture message to either another iphone or an android the pictures goes through.  But then I get a "message send failure" text back.  And when people send me pictures, they get a text that it didn't go through to me.  But I did receive them.  This has caused several repetitive messages to be sent back and forth.

    It will all iPhone and adroids that I sent messages to.  They all do go through but they all say "message send failure."  And whenever anyone sends me a picture they get notified it didn't get delivered, but I did receive it. 
    Alfredo and I did a test picture message on 7/4/14 that worked fine, but then I tried sending a picture after I logged off the chat and it went back to doing the "message send failure" again.

  • User is getting email delivery failure when processing via SAP as it tries to send an email to a user who have left the company

    Hi Experts,
    I need to remove a name on a group list in Outlook as the user is getting email delivery failure when processing via SAP (He sends the invoice for approval and emails get sent to different users for approval.) One of those users has left the company and so the user gets a email delivery failure error.
    How do I remove this user who is no longer with the company?
    The user is saying: When I approve an invoice in SAP it sends an email notification through outlook. One of those users is no longer with the company so it cannot deliver the notification, and in return send a delivery failure (in outlook). I am approving the invoices from my SAP Workplace inbox.
    How do we know what group the email is going to?
    Please let me know if you have seen this issue before. Greatly appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Asad

    Hi,
    Please check whether you are using a custom z program for sending emails of approved invoices to users. If yes then either the user email ids are hardcoded in the program else a ztable is maintained for them.

  • Why am I getting messages such as "The command "Image Size" is not currently available" when trying to run an Action that has always worked in the past and when the particular Commands do work if used by themselves?

    Why am I getting messages such as "The command Image Size is not currently available whenever I try to run an Action that uses the particular command (and which has always worked fine previously) and when the particular command works fine when used on its own?

    I would think that image size would always be available when there is an active document in Photoshop.  The only time I remember seeing messages like that where they should work was during the five month period when Adobe released CS6 with so many bugs which took Adobe five months to fix.  During those five month messages like that that should not have happen were common when action switch between documents.  Adobe would start processing the next Action step before the document switch completed, Any step that required an active document could fail with a mess stating the command is not available.
    Are you by some chance using CS6 version 13.0 CS6 without any updates.  Use Photoshop menu Help>About Photoshop.  If it shows CS6 version 13.0 you need to update CS6. .

  • Why do I get a conversion failure every time when I try to merge documents together???

    Why do I get a conversion failure every time when I try to merge documents together???

    Hi mdrhine,
    I'm sorry that you've been unable to merge files. Let's see what we can figure out.
    Are you unable to merge any files? How large are the files that you're trying to merge, and how many are you trying to merge at once?
    If you're merging more than a few files, or those files are particularly large, ttry merging those files in smaller batches. If one or more files is causing the conversion failure, merging in smaller batches should help you isolate the problematic file or files.
    I look forward to hearing back from you with some details about the files that you're trying to merge.
    Best,
    Sara
