Why can't I send and receive text messages on my new 5c ?

Why can't I send and receive text messages on my new 5c ?
I can send imessages. I can sometimes send texts. But I cannot ever send picture texts. and I am not receiving texts.

Antny,
Yikes, this is no bueno let's get these messages back up and flowing. Are you able to send out regular text messages ok? Ensure your Picture Messages feature is turned on, follow these steps: Settings>Messages>MMS Messaging. Also ensure Send as SMS is turned on as well. If these features are turned on then try this: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings then retest. Keep us posted please.

Why can't I call out when I'm in Mongolia? I can receive calls and send and receive text messages.

I'm currently in Mongolia and can not call out from my iPhone 4S using a Mobicom SIM card. I can receive calls and send and receive texts. I use my regular SIM card from Canada and it works fine. It worked fine 6 months ago.

Having incorrect APN settings shouldn't be stopping text message from coming though. But to get the correct APN setting just delete any APN profiles on the device. And the EE ones should just get installed but you can just to make sure use the link that has posted.

Mail has stopped sending and receiving

My phone has stopped sending and receiving email. When i follow the troubleshooting on line it tells me to go into advanced settings and swithc the smtp server to on and then off again. Unfortunately when I get to that screen, its frozen, and wont let me move the sliders across.
Has anybody had the same issue, or know how to fix it??

Yup, iCloud Mail is snafu'd.
Always worth checking at http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/ for the status, before deciding the fault's at your end.
Often, it isn't - and if I'd checked that in the past, I'd have saved myself several totally unnecessary password resets.

My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times

My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times. My brother has the same phone, lives in the same home and doesn't have this problem. I can't receive messages without my iphone displaying a message asking for my phone number at random times. It happens intermittently. Does anyone know why this happens? I am referring to regula text messages not imessages. I have turned it off and also updated to the most recent software. thanks

I've been an AT&T customer since they were under different names in the 90s and have never heard/seen that. I would check with them. I'd really like to see that error. To get a screenshot on the phone, press the home button and sleep/wake button together quickly and release. You will see the screen flash slightly and hear the camera shutter noise.

Help!!! My text application on Blackberry Torch 9800 disappeared!!! I can't send and receive texts :-(

Hi everyone,
I need your help!!!
The application to send and receive text does not appear on my phone Blackberry 9800 anymore... So, I can't send and receive texts...
I tried lots of things but the problem is still existing.
I have one error message everytime I turn on and reset the phone: "Uncaught exception: Index 14 >= 14" !!!
Any idea of what to do???
Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
There's pretty much no diagnosing those -- they are the equivalent of the random errors in Windows for which tracing the root cause is fruitless. Basically, these are the last out in the programming code -- some event occurred for which there is no handler in the code. The fix is a code update that handles the event...but, again, knowing what the event is is pretty much impossible. So, there are a few things to try:
Sometimes, the code simply becomes corrupt and needs to be refreshed -- just like a reboot:
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
If it won't boot up cleanly, then you may need to try Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode
There might be an updated code set from the carrier -- check them via this portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
The toughest possible cause is a badly behaving app. To find it, there are a couple of options. One is to see if you can read the log file:
Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type 'lglg'. (You will not see anything while you type).This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably many pages) untill you see a line that says 'uncaught execption'. Click on this line. The name of the app will be in the info. Alternative methods for bringing up the logs are in this KB:
KB05349How to enable, access, and extract the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone
The other method is to remove apps one at a time, waiting a while in between (I usually recommend a week), until the problem ceases...thereby discovering the offending app. Still another method is to reload the BB OS cleanly, leaving some time between adding other apps onto the BB so as to be able to determine exactly which one is the cause.
Good luck and let us know!

Can't send and receive text messages

Hello,
For around 2-3 weeks I can't send and receive text messages. When I try to text somebody, the message appears as "Not delivered". On the ! there are only 2 options: Try again and Cancel. If I choose to "Try again", the results is the same: the message is not delivered.
When somebody is trying to text me, the message appears as delivered on their phone, but does not reach mine.
Please advice
Regards
Irina

Yes, I contact them and the problem was on their side. Now my problem is solved

Tablet added, own phone number - can you send and receive text msgs ?

I got the G Pad 8.3" let tablet and it was added as an extra line, so it was given a phone number. Was wondering, since it does have it's own phone number, is it possible to send and receive texts on it using the phone number provided ? I tried just sending a text to that number, but the tablet never received it. Since it does have it's own phone number tho, is there anyway to do this ?

donintn,
That is a very interesting question! While it does have its own phone number, texting & voice calls can not be enabled for tablet devices. You can, however, use apps like Verizon Messages to send texts back & forth using the phone number for any one of your regular phone lines. There are also 3rd party apps that will give you the ability to text using thier data enabled texts. View your app options in your Google Play store.

I'm sending and receiving text messages in pairs (iMessage & Text)

Hello Apple Support Community,
I recently started sending and receiving text messages in pairs, one as an iMessage & and the other as regular text message (through Verizon).
This is happening automatically and apparently I'm not the only one with this problem.
Does anybody know the reasons to this problem and is there a solution to this?
Is Verizon just trying to charge my text messages so that I can't utilize apple's iMessage anymore?
Thanks,
-Daki

The same thing is happening to my fiancé. Whenever someone sends him an iMessage as a text message, he will first receive the text, and when he'll connect to wifi or 3g, he'll receive the iMessage as well.
He has an iPhone 4s (in case that has anything to do with it - I have the 5s and we both have the same iOS, but somehow this never happens to me).

Is there a software in which I can hook up my iPhone 4s to my computer and send and receive text messages and calls (via headset) through my computer?

Is there a software in which I can hook up my iPhone 4s to my computer and send and receive text messages and calls (via headset) through my computer? Whether it's free or cost money, can someone please give me a name of a program or software that allows me to do this? I can't seem to find anything like this for the iPhone.

No.

My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID. We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another.

My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID. We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another. Is the cause of this because we share the same Apple ID? Will we have to set up 2 separate primary email addresses to be able to send and receive Tex Messages to one another? Like I said, we share the same email address and woul like to keep it that way to keep up with our email together. Is there a way to by-pass having to set up 2 primary emaill addresses if this is the problem?
Thanks.

go to the settings and turn off imessage
but that don't change the issue that you will never be able to facetime eachtoher
the appleID is really meant as the handle that identify you it was not meant to be shared
but can see that people may want to do not buy apps more then once

My phone will on send and receive text and emails, I can't make or receive calls

My phone will only send and receive text and emails, I can't make or receive calls. Please help

Have you tried rebooting the phone? Also maybe removing and reinstalling the sim card? Make sure your not in airplane mode or check under settings -- general --cellular and see whats turned on or off.

HT1355 Can you send and receive text messages in airplane mode?

Can you send and receive text messages while in airplane mode?

No. Regular SMS's require a cellular connection. However, iMessage will work in Airplane Mode, as all that requires is an Internet connection. You can turn WiFi back on while in Airplane Mode.

Is it free to send and receive texts from another EE customer who is abroad?

is it free to send and receive texts from another EE customer who is abroad?

Hi
Welcome to the EE Community! Provided you're texting an 07 number, it won't cost you anything extra to text someone abraod (provided that's included in your package). It will cost the person abroad to reply (but not receive texts), unless again they have some sort of add on in the country they're present in. Cheers,

Sending AND Receiving Text Messages on PC through iPhone without jailbreaking

how can i send and receive text messages on my pc with my iphone number? i also would like these messages to still show up on my phone. i know if the phone is jailbroken, wifisms used to work. is there anything for non jailbroken phones?

Is there a checkmark by the phone number, or is it just grayed out? If there is no checkmark, then turn off iMessage, wait a moment and turn it back on. See if it activates. If so, then go to Send & Receive and you should see the checkmark. The phone picks up the number from your phone when it activates iMessage.
