Why don't the messages I send in iMessage synchronize across devices?

I've tried to find something about this for a while, but everything seems to be about incoming messages. Why do my outgoing messages not show up across all my devices? I see all my incoming messages without any issues.

Hi,
That may depend on what Send And Receive IDs on other devices are actually Active and which ID you are actually Sending from.
For instance
The iPhone can have a situation where the Send and Receive List should be two item but the iPhone Number itself is actually greyed out but UNticked.
It is supposed to be unchangeable by the user (Greyed out) but it is supposed to be active.
This will mean the iPhone will not get iMessages sent to it's iPhone Number.
It Should get the Apple ID sync versions which should include copies of iMessages you have sent from other devices - however it does then depend if the iPhone Number has been inactive long enough to be de-registered.
If this has happened delete the Apple ID from the Messages setting on the iPhone.
then place the iPhone in Airplane Mode for a couple of Minutes (to break with server)
When going Back to the Settings > Messages make sure the iPhone Number verifies before adding the Apple ID.
Once you have added the Apple ID accept the pop ups as they Appear on the Mac so that the iPhone Number is in that version's Send and Receive spots.

    No.  The iPad cannot make/receive cellular calls or send/receive cellular text messages.  It can only send and receive cellular data, if equipped with 3G.

  • Why don't the notes inside each contact sync from my Outlook on my laptop to my iphone

    Why don't the notes I create inside an indiviual contact sync with my iphone?

    I'm not certain why they are not syncing. It can be addressed in a couple of different ways. You could reset the sync history and see if that helps. There is a way to add a note to a contact in the iPhone by going to edit for a contact and then scroll to the bottom and select "add field" and select note. If you already have a note added, it should appear below the contact's information and above the buttons for text message, Facetime, etc.

    Thank You

    . You do not need a seperate Apple ID. One one device you just need to go to Settings>Messages and add another/different Messaging email address and delete the common Apple ID address. Also see:

  • Unplanned automatic failover using Hyper-v Replica , why don't the VMs start up automatically on the replica server?

    Hi,
    We have cluster with two hosts (Host01 , host02) replicated to another server (Replica01)
    in order to test automatic failover to the replica server  (Replica01) We unplugged the power cables from Host01 and Host 02 
    now the VMs on the replica server is still off  , why don't the VMs start up  automatically on the replica server?
    Ramy Shaker

    overall there is no automatic failover in Hyper-V
    Of course there is. It's enabled by Failover Clustering. This is a totally separate technology from Hyper-V Replica.
    There is no automatic start up in Hyper-V Replica because it is not designed to detect a split-brain condition where the same virtual machine is running in multiple locations simultaneously. The replica site has no way to know why it can't reach the primary
    system anymore. It might just be because someone unplugged a network cable. If the primary's virtual machines are still running and the replica decides to spin up its copies, you will have many troubles.

    Im not sure what's the problem, but let's try to figure it out. First of all explain what do you mean by "it works very bad". Doest it hang, is it slow, is quality unacceptable.
    Myself, I have one problem with JMF. When i run video & audio on my Centrino 1.4 GHz, it just takes 100% CPU! And of course quality becomes degraded. Check if you have something like this.

  • Why don't the photos load properly

    When i scroll through my photos in my library (in loop mode) why don't the photos load properly and the photos still blurred?

    LR may not have rendered the necessary previews yet.
    Did you render only minimal previews in your import settings?
    How big have you specified your standard previews in your preferences? It should match the screen you are mostly using for image viewing.
    Then you can invoke the command to let LR render standard previews from the Library. LR will first scan how many previews it already has, then actually create the missing ones.

  • Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file

    Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file ? My vulnerability reports show these installations are not patched when they really are.

    Hi All,
    I also facing the same issue with Adobe reader 9.5.4 version update.
    Previous Version installed: 9.5.3
    AcroRd32.exe - File Version 9.5.3.305
    AcroRd32.dll - File version 9.5.3.305
    After update installation to 9.5.4, add or remove program shows latest version but exe and dll is not updated. Vulnerability assessment tools based on file version check identifies patch is still missing. Becomes a HEAD ACHE.
    Adobe Reader 9 > Help > About Adobe Reader 9 - First shows version 9.5.4, if your click on it instead of showing AGM version next it shows version 9.5.3.305.
    I tested for all previous versions of 9x, works fine in each update. Seems like patch is missing codes for updating file versions.
    Waiting for an acknowledgement.

  • Why don't the parental controls on the mac pro work?   I have the settings correct.

    Why don't the parental controls work on the mac pro?

    I am set as the administrator able to make changes and one day my daughter was set as the administrator.  I did not make the change.
    How old is your daughter?
    Is it possible she has seen you type your password, and given herself admin rights? Or used your user_id when you stepped away from the computer?
    If so, you will need to do one or more of:
    a) change your password. This leaves you open to having her watch and take the new password. You can also "require password after nnn minutes of screensaver" in System Preferences > Security
    b) add a new Admin with a new password. use it ONLY for Administration. Log in to it and demote your own Account to a non-Admin. Then go back to your own account, which cannot be used to add privileges. When you want to install something, you will type the Admin username and password.
    c) have a deeply serious discussion about building TRUST and giving her increasing responsibilities toward becoming a free-standing responsible adult.

    One thing the iPad lacks is a file manager. There is no file explorer native on the iPad. If you started adding plugin cards, then you add the need for that.  And, in PC's, most viruses spread via the file explorer (the definition of a virus is a malicious program that propagates itself across multiple programs)
    There are a few drives out there for iDevices. Such as the WiDrive and others.
