Why users cannot send private messages to each other?

why users cannot send private messages to each other?

I think what the forum software has to offer is neither rocket science, nor anything new or generally unknown. The vendor or OTN should have enough experience and at least tested the forum software to make sure it functions as advertised. Unfortunately however it seems that the OTN staff is either not very good at testing the product or they just leave it up to the community to find out. Some of the previous issues are so obvious that I would rather suspect the later.
I would not want to spoil anyone's fun, but I would be reluctant to enable private messaging because I think community members should exchange questions and answers in public and not through private channels. If anybody wants to send me a private message, for instance, my email address is visible in the bio field of my user profile. This way at least I can respond at my convenience, outside of Oracle's jurisdiction, or simply bounce an email if I feel like it.
And btw, I'm somewhat concerned about current privacy settings. What business is it of anyone else to see my bookmarks and the content I'm following?

  • Cannot send private messages to some participants

    As the title says, I found today that I cannot sent PMs to some participants. One of them is Jacob Bugge, another is dave milbut; their names are not recognized even when copying and pasting from their profiles. I have tried a couple of other participants who have been recognized without problems.
    Anyoner knows how to do it?

    Here is another funny thing I noticed.
    Here is an example of the list I get when I am writing someone's first name:
    However, when I continue and start writing that person's second name, the list changes to something like this:
    which is not what I would have expected.

  • I just purchased a note 3.  Everything works well except I cannot send text messages.  I can receive them, but I get an error message when I try to send them

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot send text messages on my note 3?   I can receive them, but when I attempt to send them I get an error message unable to send . . .  It's a brand new phone.

        Congratulations on your new phone, Nonaleigh.
    We would love to get to the bottom of your message mystery.
    I'm guessing you are getting the error for all messages you attempt to send, is that correct?
    What type of phone did you upgrade from? We ask because if you have switched from an Apple device (e.g., iPhone) to a non-Apple device (e.g., Android, Blackberry, etc.) and previously used the iMessage service, you may experience issues sending/receiving SMS/MMS messages with Apple device users. You need to deactivate the iMessage service within your Apple account to restore normal SMS/MMS functionality.

  • HT204053 My wife and I have both synced our iphones to the same desktop computer. She recently synced her ipad to the same computer. Now we cannot send messages to each other anymore. any ideas?

    My wife and I have both synced our iphones to the same desktop computer. She recently synced her ipad to the same computer. Now we cannot send messages to each other anymore. any ideas?

    By signing up for an apple ID it means she will be able to download her own apps and music and in future redownload if required for free. Ideally it should be the primary email address she uses as you can't transfer purchases etc to another ID.
    Photos shouldn't disappear but back them up before hand. These days everyone gets an iCloud.com address so she could use this as her ID. You would need to go to www.apple.com/iCloud from a computer to sign up for this. Bearing in mind you need a mac with lion or mountain lion or a pc with windows vista onward to take advantage of all services like calendar sync and find my iPhone etc.
    Otherwise sign up for an apple id with any other email address. You can do this at https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    AND Click on create an apple ID.
    the applications linked to your existing apple ID will have to be redownloaded on the other ID but you won't lose them on yours.

  • Cannot send text messages to Verizon customers

    Hi
    I cannot send text messages to other verizon customers but can send to non vz. This has been happening since last night. Is there an update I need to perform? I have an iPhone 6 plus. Thanks

    Hi
    Thank you for your message. It seems like it is certain Verizon iPhone users. I did not download any new apps or perform any software updates on my iPhone. The ppl I could send text messages to were non VZ non iPhone users. Today I can only send to some iPhone users. They also had error messages sending text messages to me but not to my daughters iPhone (we r on a VZ family plan). Do I need to perform an update like *228 or something like that? Thank you!

    You can send iMessages to other iOS devices, like iPad, iPhone, etc. Furthermore, the other iDevices users must have set up their iMessage.

  • Cannot send text message or iMessage?

    I recently upgraded to iOS7 (like everyone else) and today cannot send text messages or iMessage. I can make phone calls and use other internet services. Any ideas?

        Hi shelmig1!
    Sorry to learn of any issues since upgrading to iOS7. Let's try some troubleshooting! Do you find that this issue is only for other iPhone users, or does it happen with all messages? Are you able to receive messages? Please reset your network settings: Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings. Keep us posted on the results, thanks!

  • My husband and I did the most recent update. Now when we send messages to each other we also receive a duplicate of the message to ourself, what did we do wrong?

    Check to see if you are both using the same Apple ID for iMessage.  If you are, one of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  (You can continue to share the same ID for other services such as iTunes.)

  • Error message: "Cannot send alert message to browser" on Rule Policy

    Hi Experts.
    Have anybody experience with the error message "Cannot send alert message to browser" on Rule Policies? The condition-check of the rule is working fine. But the error message shown appears in the web UI Similar exception on Complaints Error Message but no answer. Is it possible that the SSL settings are responsible for that error message? Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

    "Exception: An exception (CX_SAM_MESSAGING_EXCEPTION) occurred. Message no. TPDA430."
    on that line of code: line 91: sam_sender->send_to_client( message = sam_message ).
    I looked inside:
    - In the method "_SEND (CL_SAM_SESSION_QUEUE_SENDER)"
    line 101:   http_client->receive(  EXCEPTIONS http_communication_failure = 1 ... )
    The sy-subrc will be set to 1.
    I looked inside:

    Here the "reason" will  be set to "Native SSL Error".
    Any ideas how to solve this problem?
