Why do SMS messgaes appear on my husbands iPhone, that I send to friends that I have previously sent messages from my iPad?
We have no pc, just iPad 2 and iPhones and the magical cloud!,

Are you sharing an Apple ID?
Go to Settings>Messages>Send and receive and unselect his phone number from your iPhone and yours from his.
Also make sure that each of the phones are sending from their own numbers

Why can't I send sms messages from my iPad anymore?

on one of the updates Apple did they changed it to where sms messages (green bubbles) could be sent from an iPad. I had done it several times however now when I try it the contact shows up in red and it won't let me send anything!

You will have to be a lot more specific about the issue you are having if you expect to get any help. What exactly is happening?

Why don't SMS messages from my wife's iPhone reach my Nokia?

I have used an iPhone 4 since October 2010. My wife followed suit in Dec 2011. We used iMessage as standard without any issues, but recently my iPhone was put in the wash by mistake, so while I'm waiting for the insurance to replace it, I am using my sim in an old Nokia (6230 or something). The thing is, now when she tries to send me an SMS messgage it won't come through to the Nokia. Other peoples make it OK, even from other iPhones. It says it sent as SMS on her phone too.
Hopefully someone can help, I'm all out of ideas!
Oh, it may be worth mentioning I switched to the Nokia the same day my iPad arrived, I was "playing", as you do, and tried to message my wife's iPhone from it as I was at home on my wifi network. This worked fine but not what I need, so I switched off iMessage on the iPad and now messages from her phone won't reach the Nokia.
Thanks in advance...

Spoke too soon, that was with iMessage disabled on her phone. When I turn iMessage on, still no message received on the Nokia.
(I can't wait to get a replacement iPhone :-)

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

Send and Receive SMS messages from US to South Kor...

I want to be able to receive and send SMS messages from my skype to my friend's cell phone in Korea
When I send it they receive it, but they can't respond it back to me because it is an international text.
Is there anyway that I can buy a Korean online number when I'm living in US?
and with that number will I be able to talk and send/receive messages with my friend?

@ sberman -Hi-I have my settings as you described and I do have a text msg. plan with At&T. I'm still puzzled, however; I had the same plan with he former phone-the ancient 3Gs and with it, I was able to send/receive text, photos, etc. to non-Iphone users via WiFi as long as I was home and within distance of the connection. I did not have to have my cell data "on" in order to send/receive anything. Everything transmitted through WiFi-and did not impact my charges or cell data limits.. I know I must use the cell data ON when I'm away, but don't understand why/how I can't do the same as before I upgraded to the 5c. Admittedly, I am certainly NOT in the stratospheric league as so many phone experts here-I do make the attempt to understand, though..
I read on one of the numerous help/answer sites that apparently someone else had registered the same complaint with Apple and now has a pending lawsuit-and hoping to get class-action status on the issue. I'm fairly sure this is the same-although I cannot be 100% certain given my lack of expertise.
I certainly appreciate your rapid response-as a newbie to these communities, I didn't expect any answers to my questions so quickly.Thanks for taking the time to post-have a great weekend.

How do i send sms messages from my mac to a phone

the gurl from apple said i could send sms messages from my imac to a phone. How do i di that?

Hi Lanny,
Actually those two pics don't tell you what you need to know.
The First is correct as it can be from the Messages app but the second goes to no way to tell you how to do and b fact does not even mention SMS messages.
@ 10411
You will need to have an AIM or AIM Valid name that you can add to the Messages > Preferences > Accounts at the + icon below the list.
Next the Mac need to be in the United States.
Go to System Preferences > Language and Text and set the Region to the Untied States.
(In iChat this added SMS items to some of the Menus in iChat)
The iPhone has to be on a Carrier that is in the United States See list
Which in turn means the phone number is a United States one (+1 country code)
This means you add the Cell/mobile number as if it were a Buddy to an AIM list.
So Creating an Address Card for "SMS Test" and adding the mock number +1234567890 to that I get this in Messages (Mousing over the Name to see the "Screen Name" which is the number in this case)
Basically this is a feature that iChat has always had since AIM included a link to SMS to certain Phones.
Messages does everything iChat did/does and this includes SMS Messaging via an AIM Buddy list even though in this case the Menu items has disappeared.
AS has been said there are also other methods.

Problem sending a SMS message from mobile phone t809

Hello!
I am trying to send a SMS message from my cell phone. This is Samsung t809 phone with CLDC 1.1 and MIDP 2.0
The code that I am using is next:
MessageConnection smsconn = null;
try
smsconn = ( MessageConnection )Connector.open( "sms://:50000" );
TextMessage txtMsg = ( TextMessage )smsconn.newMessage( MessageConnection.TEXT_MESSAGE );
txtMsg.setAddress( "sms://18885552233" );
txtMsg.setPayloadText( "Hello SMS!" );
smsconn.send( txtMsg );
catch( Exception e )
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println( e.getMessage() );
form_main.append( "\nError occured!" );
if( smsconn != null )
try
smsconn.close();
catch( IOException e )
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println( e.getMessage() );
Seems like on cell phone I have an exception because I can see the line "Error occured!"
I have no idea why... :(
Will appreciate any help and comments.
Thank you!
P.S. Oh yes... the phone 18885552233 is not real, I just used my friend cell phone to test. Does not work... :(

hello,
when you use smsconn = ( MessageConnection )Connector.open( "sms://:50000" ); it means that you are trying to connect to a sms server. So if you don't have a sms server on your computer, an exception is thrown !
if you just wanna test sms sending, put the phone number in the string like this
smsconn = ( MessageConnection )Connector.open( "sms://123456789" );<b>reference</b>:

SMS's that i send show up to recievers with my email instead of my name

HI
SMS's that i send show up to recievers with my email instead of my name
can ANYONE help please!!

The Caller ID setting determines how your message will be received by others. If you select your number there, your message will be identified by your number to the recipient, and if they have your name and number in their contacts it will display your name. The Receive At setting only shows the ways others can address messages to you, such as by your phone number or email address. (Your number shown in Receive At can't be selected because you can't be changed or removed.)

Why don't I receive iMessages on my iPad when sent to my iPhone? When I send messages from my iPad, they show up on my iPhone, but doesn't hold true the opposite way?

Ok. So I figured out that I can add the email address to my iPhone 4s to receive the iMessages sent/received from my iPad. How do I get the messages on my iPad that were sent to my iPhone? Is it possible?

Sending an sms message from your PC can be done in many ways. Firstly this can be send via email, simply type in the to field the number followed by the gateway. for example, [email protected] There are also a number of websites that allows you to do this simple search google for "send text message" and will see a list. The one I use is [http://www.wetextfree.com] it works and its free. Hope this helps you.

Why are some text messages blue and some green

Why are some text messages blue and some green?

Blue text messages are iMessages (with other iOS and Mac users with iMessage enabled).
Green are regular SMS messages to non-iPhone users and iPhone users with iMessage not enabled.

Why are some instant messages colored green and some blue

why are some instant messages colored green and some blue

Green is SMS, Blue is iMessage.
