Why does my iMessage always get stuck in the sending mode?

Whenever I try to send an iMessage it gets stuck in the sending mode and just sits there and in hardly receive my messages because of it, please make this stop. My parents both have iPhones and theirs don't do it.

The sending and receiving of iMessages is dependent on an active data connection. If you are sending, the recipient has to have an active connection as well, and this can result in the behavior that you are describing. Try double tapping on the home button and finding the Messages app in the multi-tasking tray. Touch and hold the icon until it starts to wiggle. Tap on the minus sign to close it. Do a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, open the Messages app and try messaging again. You can try to message with one of your parents right there with you and see how that works.

  • Why does my macbook pro gets stuck in the startup screen?? its the older versiom

    its like stuck in the startup screen. i tried a few times and even took out the battery twice. please help!! i have some important document stored inside i cannot retrieve now!!!! 
    i think the operating system is like 10.7.something

    You might have a failing hard drive. If you're running 10.7.x, try booting into your Recovery partition - holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting. Once at the installatio screen, use Disk Utility to verify and, if needed, repair your hard drive. If it can be repaired, you should be good to go - if it can't be repaired then you're going to need to go shopping for a new drive.

  • Firefox 3.6.5, running Windows 7, always gets stuck at the 80% when trying to install initially.

    I've been a long time user of Mozilla Firefox, and have recently upgraded computers, which gave me Windows 7 Home Premium. For the past couple of days I have been trying to install Firefox 3.6.5 but it always gets stuck when its 80% done. Is there something I could do to stop that, or do I need to use a different version of Firefox, and if so, where can I download one?
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week

    Do a clean (re)install and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

  • Why does my Internet Sharing get stuck at "Obtaining IP address.."?

    So I was trying to share my laptop's internet connection with my Android phone (HTC Desire X). I enabled the checkbox for Internet Sharing in System Preferences.
    My phone detected the network. But when I tap on it, it gets stuck at "Obtaining IP address..". So, when connecting, I selected "static" as opposed DHCP and gave:
    IP: 192.168.1.1
    Gateway: 192.168.1.10
    Network prefix length: 24
    DNS 1: 8.8.8.8
    DNS 2: 8.8.4.4
    Now it got connected, but still internet is still not working in the browser. Any ideas why?

  • Why does iTunes Match keep getting stuck on Step 1?

    I realise there are already countless threads on here from people with the same problem but none of them seem to be able to help me. I've recently renewed my iTunes Match subscription after many months but it keeps getting stuck nearly halfway through Step 1. The bar gets so far and then stops for ages.
    I've tried all sorts of things: Stopping and starting the match, deleting my iTunes Library.itl file (which just creates even more problems with my library, so I have to put it back to normal with a backup), signing in and out of iTunes Store, closing and reopening iTunes, restarting my PC, deleting duplicates etc. None of them is solving the problem.
    In case it's relevant, I've got Windows 8 on my laptop and my iTunes library is based on an external hard-drive I've got connected to the laptop by USB.
    If there is any definitive answer to solving this problem, can someone please help me ASAP?

    i'm having the same problem. it's been in step 1 for two days. I tried stopping it and nothing. please let me know if you had a solution on this issue.
    thx

  • Why does my ITunes now get stuck when it can't find the album art?

    I've noticed since yesterday when I bought my new IPod Touch my ITunes on my computer gets stuck when it can't find the album art for some music I have. It gets to that album and won't do anything, won't let me skip it or anything ... Anyone else having similar issues and if so any workaround?

    Hi joanhello,
    I understand that you are seeing an issue with iTunes fetching information about CDs you are importing. Here is an article for you that explains how to troubleshoot this issue:

  • Why does URLStream complete event get dispatched when the file is not finished loading?

    I'm writing an AIR kiosk app that every night connects to a WordPress server, gets a JSON file with paths to all the content, and then downloads that content and saves it to the kiosk hard drive. 
    There's several hundred files (jpg, png, f4v, xml) and most of them download/save with no problems.  However, there are two f4v files that never get downloaded completely.  The complete event does get dispatched, but if I compare the bytesTotal (from the progress event) vs bytesAvailable (from the complete event) they don't match up; bytesTotal is larger.  The bytesTotal (from the progress event) matches the bytes on the server. 
    The bytesLoaded in the progress event never increases to the point that it matches the bytesTotal so I can't rely on the progress event either.  This seems to happen on the same two videos every time. The videos are not very large, one is 13MB and the other is 46MB.  I have larger videos that download without any problems.  
    [edit] After rebooting the compter, the two videos that were failing now download correctly, and now it's a 300kb png file that is not downloading completely.  I'm only getting 312889 of 314349 bytes.
    If I paste the url into Firefox it downloads correctly, so it appears to be a problem with Flash/AIR.
    [edit] I just wrote a quick C# app to download the file and it works as expected, so it's definitely a problem with Flash/AIR. 
    Here's the code I'm using:
    package  {
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.events.Event;
        import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
        import flash.net.URLRequest;
        import flash.net.URLStream;
        [SWF(backgroundColor="#000000", frameRate="24", width="640", height="480")]
        public class Test extends Sprite {
            private var fileSize:Number;
            private var stream : URLStream;
            private var url:String = "http://192.168.150.219/wordpress2/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/John-Butler-clip1.f4v";
            public function Test() {
                if (stage)
                    init();
                else
                    this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
            private function init(e:Event=null):void {
                this.removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
                stream = new URLStream();
                stream.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onLoadProgress);
                stream.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
                stream.load(new URLRequest(url));
            private function onLoadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
                fileSize = event.bytesTotal;
                var percent:Number = event.bytesLoaded / event.bytesTotal * 100;
                trace(percent + "%");
            private function onLoadComplete(event:Event):void {
                trace("loaded", stream.bytesAvailable, "of", fileSize);
                // outputs "loaded 13182905 of 13184365"
                // so why is it "complete" when it isn't finished downloading?

    Thanks for your quick reply !
    I am relatively new to programming so please bear with me on this as I still haven't managed to grasp some of those things that "make perfect sense". If I am setting mouseEnabled to false doesn't that mean that the object no longer gets MouseEvents ?
    If I have understood you correctly then once the mouseEnabled is set to false the btn object is removed from the objects recognizable by the mouse - hence dispatching a mouseout event (and I am guessing here) from the mouse?
    I still don't get it though, if the listeners are set to the object and the object is no longer accessible to the mouse why is the event still being dispatched ?
    I get it that the making of the object unavailable to the mouse causes the "removing" (deactivating) of the object from under the mouse,
      step 1. deactivate object, and  step 2. (as a result of step 1) register the removal of the object.
    but why is the mouse still listening after step 1?
    Even if the action is that of "out" (as in the object is no longer under the mouse) it still is an action isn't it ? so haven't we turned off the listening for actions ?
    I promise I am not trying to drive you crazy here, this is just one of those things that I really want to get to the root of !
    Thanks,

    Hi bhagath1339,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    The first troubleshooting steps I would recommend in this situation would be restarting and if the issue continues, resetting the iPhone.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue continues after restarting and resetting, it may be necessary to restore your iPhone to isolate software versus hardware. Please follow the attached article if you need assistance restoring the device.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • Why does Spaces not always show apps in the designated space?

    HI.
    I have 2 spaces defined. Space 1 is for xcode. Space 2 is for Interface Builder. When in space 1 and using xcode I open a xib file. It opens in space 2 with Interface Builder, just like it should. However when I open another xib file from space 1 it displays in space 1 and not in space 2.
    Before a clean instal of SL it always opened in the correct space.
    Is this a bug or is there a magic setting somewhere?
    Also how do you manually move views to other spaces?

    What happens if you open the xib from IB via space 2 thereafter? Does that xib behave the same each time it is re-opened?
    Have you emptied Xcode's caches specifically during your tests?

  • Why does I have always JAVA update on the App Store even I have uninstall JAVA on my MacBook Pro

    I have remove JAVA on my MACBOOK PRO. But Apple Store still give me JAVA update. I don't understand. If someone can give me an explanatiion, it would be fine.
    Thanks,
    Romaric

    Ds store is NOT correct. I don't have Java installed, and I never get those Java updates in the App Store. They will only show up if you have Java installed.
    However, you say you REMOVED Java. There's really no good way to remove all components of Java once installed, so you still have some parts of Java installed somewhere, and that's triggering the updates.
    Don't worry about removing Java, just disable it in any web browsers you use. See:

  • Why does my Keynote size get reformated on the IPad when PPT files do not.

    When I import a Keynote presentation in HD format dimensions (1920 x 1080) into my IPad Keynote folder, it reformats the entire presentation to 800 x 600 which defeats the whole purpose. I don't have this issue when I import a PPT presentation in QuickOffice Pro HD. So what's up, all the boasting of being ahead of everyone only to have a critical piece of software behind the times. I wondering if I am missing something and not using the IPad Keynote properly. Please advise.

  • Network Print Jobs Always Get Stuck in Queue

    Hello,
    I have, perhaps, the most frustrating problem on the planet.  In my home network, I have a HP Color LaserJet 2600n connected to my main PC, with 2 other PC's on the network.  All 3 run Windows 7.  Printing from my main PC works fine, but if I try to print over the network, the print job always gets stuck in the queue.  I can see it stuck in the queue on my main PC, but I can't do anything about it.  I can't delete it, nothing.  If I restart the spooler, then it magically prints and clears the queue, but it's annoying to have to do that all the time.  I've reinstalled the drivers several times to no avail.  Tips?

    I have a similar problem, I have a directly connected 1300 and a network P3015. The 1300 is connected via USB, the 3015 is connected by RJ45 cable right to the router. Both printers have their print queues get stuck, but only from my HP Pavilion Elite HPE running HP-installed Windows 7. All the other machines in the office can use the 3015 printer perfectly well. One is an older Pavilion using XP-Pro, another is a Dell using XP-Pro and the third is a Lenovo laptop using Windows 7. All our toners are not refills (seems like a stupid suggestion that the toner cartridge could cause a queue to lock up). The problem is definitely between my machine and the HP printers. I have a Brother printer and a couple of Seiko/Epson printers that all work perfectly fine.
    Rebooting several times a day is getting old.
