  Hi, dtm33.

  Please visit Apple support communities.

  I understand that you are unable to send iMessages or text through the messaging app.  Because your iPhone is restarted or reset the network settings has not resolved the problem, try all other troubleshooting steps in the article below.

• iMessages and texts appear not on all devices.

  I have a MacBook (2015 edition) an Apple Watch and an iPhone 6 more. The Mac running OS X El Capitan version 10.11.5.  The Watch works OS 2.2.1. My iPhone is running iOS 9.3.2. Text messages and iMessages do not display the entire conversation on each device. I can see what the sender, but it does not show my answers, even if the sender receives answers. I tested the message function by sending me a message, and I have not received a response.

  I chatted with Support from Apple, took all three devices in an Apple Store and talked to a technician, a senior technical and obtained a reference to an engineer. We can't solve this problem.

  All devices have been reset again. I signed repeatedly. All the Ts were crossed and nothing seems to fix this.

  I noticed that when I tried to turn the text transfer function, no verification code appeared on my MacBook, but it has never been a problem before, when it was not lit. I think that the fact that the dialog is the result of this problem, but I don't think that it is the cause.

  Can someone help me please!

  Please turn the phone off, or put it in airplane mode. IMessage now works on Mac?

• iMessage sending text

  Hello:

  I have a daughter who is now abroad. It can receive iMessages free, but the texts have a charge. Most of the time that I have no problem with it, but sometimes the e-mail, I see where the message is sent as a text. I'm still confused of differences between messaging and texting, so I do not understand why it is that some of the messages are sent in the form of texts. Is it possible to set this so that when I message her she will not send as a text?

  Thank you

• List is no longer iMessages or text of the other phones in the message on my iMac and Macbook pro application

  I used to be able to send messages and receive texts on my computer from anyone, and now it does not work. iMessage works on and outside, but people on other systems do not get through.  So much easier to type on the laptop desktop computer sometimes.  Thanks for the tips.  Kate (I use OS X el capitan, but I think that it worked after update)

  If the problem is that cellular text messages are not transferred to or from your iPhone, please follow the instructions in this article to support, under

  Use of continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch

  Make sure that at least one address is activated on the phone for use with iMessage; in the contrary case, the activation code will appear.

• The strength of iMessage to send as text

  My fiance is currently traveling in another country with limited access to the data.  Is it possible to force a thread unique iMessage for text rather than iMessages?  When she sent me a message, it comes through a text, but when I answer default to iMessage unless I can catch him before he goes through.  I see only one way to turn off completely from iMessage.

  No, if the address of the recipient is associated with messages on his account.

• How can I get off my text message app Imessage

  How that, you get the thing imessage off my application of text to the tune of the ipad 2. Just on my app for text messages and cannot be removed

  Hi Dpshope66,

  Thank you for using communities Support from Apple.

  If I understand your message correctly you lit iMessage on your iPad, and now you want to remove the feature from iMessage.  If this is correct, then all you need to do is disable iMessage in your settings.

  

  iMessages are text, photos or videos that you send to Mac and iOS devices via WiFi or cellular data networks. These messages appear in blue text bubbles. To enable or disable the iMessage, go to settings > Messages.

  Use Messages with your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

  Take care.

• With El Capitan in imessage, I can only send short texts. I send several separate texts.

  With my replacement new iPad 2 Air I can only send short messages. Texts will not result if the content is more than a few brief sentences.

  I don't know what has to do with your iPad 2 Air El Capitan. If the person with you Messaging uses no iMessage then text message SMS you limited to 160 characters.

• How to ship iMessage by default without disabling?

  Hi, does anyone knows how to ship iMessage by default without disabling? It was really painful for to change me the iMessage message text before it is sent successfully. Is there a way to default to text messages? Reason not to disable iMessage is because I always want to receive, do not want to send it. Thank you very much.

  This isn't a feature of iOS or iOS app of e-mail. If your camera is actively registered and connected to iMessage and you send to another user filed iMessage to Apple, then the messaging application intrinsically will attempt to send through the iMessage to Apple service.

  The only way to go back to SMS as the default is from you disconnect from iMessage and disable the use of the service on your device.

• iPhone 6 on EE - iMessage will not send pictures

  My iphone 6 ceased to send pictures through iMessage.

  It sends the text through iMessage iMessage works. I tried on wifi and EE 4 g, makes no difference. Receives photos and text via fine imessage. IMessage picture just coming out that is affected.

  Tried:

  Reset the phone

  Turn imessage

  Turn FaceTime

  Toggle flight mode

  Signature to iCloud and folder in

  etc (as well as making several of the foregoing in unison)

  Wierdly the only time wherever it works is if I send to myself.

  When you send someone else, it takes a while, and then the blue bar goes and he says comes under. Then a few minutes after that he changed to fail. Tried to send to several other people and these people can all receive iMessage pictures from third parties is only me that is affected.

  I repeat... iMessage works as it sends the text via is not the settings in this sense. It is also not the image size I tried those who have worked in the past.

  Any ideas? I tried everything I saw in google searches.

  Thank you

  iMessage uses data, that this is just a message including a photo. You mention he happens on a wi - fi provided cell also, is that correct? When you talk to reset the phone, are you referring to reset in now the home and sleep/wake set buttons until you see the Apple logo and then release for the iPhone to reboot?

  IMessage requires an active internet connection on both sides of the conversation, the sender and recipient. Have you checked with the people you send it? Have you been able to receive a picture of someone with iMessage, wi - fi or cellular? You say that you can send an iMessage with just the text, have you tried to send a picture to someone immediately after their sending just an iMessage with text? iMessage shows that it is active, correct?

  The following troubleshooting steps include resetting the network settings, backup restore, factory restore, testing after each step.

  PS Ce which means 'abo in the Union?  Nevermind, I see you have edited that.

• IPhone 5 upgraded to ios9.3.1 now lost all text messages, don't get any notification, stuck "send".

  I've recently upgraded to IOS9.3.1 (previously on the much earlier version but can not remember which) with the help of iphone 5.

  Several questions now all related messages

  (1) all messages have disappeared and brand-new only stay a few hours and then disappear voluntarily (set of parameters for keep forever)

  (2) no alert of working the front desk of all new messages (change the sounds, verified notifications are on)

  (3) when to send messages (imessage and text) state bar 1 mailing of... forever - never goes away until the message has disappeared from the list of messages.

  Before upgrading to IOS 9 I saved on the PC and I think than icloud

  I tried the following things most of them several times.

  turn off...

  verified notifications are on in the settings, messages, notifications,

  turned I message on

  Reset all settings (more then once)

  restored from backup of the computer just before the upgrade - don't know how to restore from an earlier backup if this is possible or to find out if I have a backup in icloud.

  Please help, I'm at my wits end resources, used to use e-mail all the time and now completely useless.  Please not jargon and clear instructions for any problems I'm not an Apple expert.

  Thank you

  Hi Karen,.

  I have exactly the same problems since I've updated the software on my iphone 5 c. 9 days since your post, you have a bit of luck to solve the problem?

  I tried something similar to yourself:

  (1) rebooted the phone (several times)

  (2) to reset all the settings of the phone a couple of times

  (3) enabled i-message and SMS messages and turn off many times.

  Everything else looks good, what about my contacts, applications, history calls, e-mail, etc. Just the text messaging application. I see my stock of the iphone that I have
  have 140 MB of messages somewhere, but do not appear to be visible.

  I was told by Apple via DM on Twitter Support to do a full backup and restore of my phone, to completely erase all the data and settings, effectively
  become a 'new' phone again with the factory settings. I hope to try to avoid this if possible option. Am due to an update of the phone, so think I might
  just get a new phone if I end up having to do a full restore in any way.

  Thank you

• Texts now green instead of blue.

  My texts are usually blue, but are now green when text message to a particular contact. Why is this?

  In General, when the texts are blue, this means that you send iMessage. When it turns green, this means that you send sms, no iMessage.

  IMessage and SMS/MMS

  You can use iMessage or SMS/MMS on the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

  

  iMessages are text, photos or videos that you send to Mac and iOS devices via WiFi or cellular data networks. These messages appear in blue text bubbles. To enable or disable the iMessage, go to settings > Messages.

  

  If you use no iMessage, you can use SMS. SMS/MMS messages are text and pictures that you send to other cell phones or iOS devices. These messages appear in bubbles of green text on your device.

  To use SMS/MMS, you need a text messaging plan. Contact your operator for more information.

• How do as notifications from contacts priority to ring and silencing all the others?

  I just bought a new 128 GB iPhone 6 seconds more and it's now the latest version of the iOS 10.0.2 software executing.  I've used other platforms (Android, BlackBerry) and I miss one features are the ability to have only sound important contacts through notifications, but all others are silenced.  It is very convenient when it is at work or out with friends that I get constant, a beep or vibration but am able to know immediately when, say, my child or my boss of messages me.  The boss and the child have iMessage, if this is relevant, but others are on different platforms, so I hope that I can set up in general.  E-mail applications that I use the most are iMessage, BBM, text, Facebook Messenger more telephone calls.

  You can use a do not disturb to reduce to silence the alerts. You can configure specific contacts so that alerts text for them always come. Go to the contact you want to implement. Press "Edit" at the top right. Type your text. At the top of the list is "Bypass of emergency." Turn it on. Tap done. Tap done again.

  You can also do the same for calls.

  Not disturb will silence the alerts to third-party messaging applications. I don't know of any way around that.

• With the help of Apple ID.

  New at this way Apple to communicate. Love the iMessaging option. (free).

  My Blackberry Z30 doesn't work with iMessage, when well even some said it would be.

  We have 3 iPhones.

  The same appleid is on all three. Following the instructions for me by an Apple Tech (if I understand it.)

  IMessage using three can all text outside the House.

  I tried to text my wife (in the House) of the boat house using his email as contact ID (not supplied).

  I texted my sister in law using his email address. (It to be delivered)

  Someone help with why text my wife didn't. ?

  I tried to text sound using our Appleid the message delivered to my phone and hers and my son to his work phone.

  This doesn't seem to be the best way to do it.

  Thank you

  On the Blackberry, iMessage works only between Apple devices. See the information below for The use of Messages with your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support

  iMessages are text, photos or videos that you send to Mac and iOS devices via WiFi or cellular data networks. These messages appear in blue text bubbles.

  In regard to using the same Apple ID on materials used by 3 people, it is strongly recommended that every individual have their own Apple ID. Family sharing can be used to share selected items if you wish: http://www.apple.com/icloud/family-sharing/
