    I know this is late but I try to send a message to someone but it says it's not delivering and that person has an iPhone. Also you know when it says I message on the type bar, mine says message and I massage works on someone else on my contacts. Can you please help me?

      Hi Naing,
      If you're trying to send an iMessage to another iPhone user, make sure both you and the recipient have iMessage enabled in your iPhone's settings. If only one of you has iMessage enabled, you won't be able to send/receive iMessages. If you have iMessage enabled and your friend does not, your messages won't be delivered properly.

      Hi there,
      If you're having trouble sending/receiving iMessages, make sure you and your friend both have iMessage enabled. Check out this help page on the Apple website for more tips: support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204065

    • @techlifeunity
      @techlifeunity  3 роки тому

      It's possible that it's because the person you're trying to send to is in another country. However as long as you have their number entered correctly and are connected to your cell carrier's network you should still be able to send your message.

      iMessage is for Apple devices only. If you send a message using the Messages app on your iPhone to someone with an Android device, it will be sent as a regular SMS text message, not an iMessage.

      The person you're trying to send the message to may not have iMessage set up on their end, or it could be an issue with your internet connection. Make sure you're connected to Wi-Fi or have your cellular data turned on, and check that the person you're sending the message to has iMessage set up.

    • @techlifeunity
      @techlifeunity  7 років тому

      Hi Nancy,
      This issue could be caused by poor Internet connection, or one person not having iMessage enabled properly. If both of you have a strong Internet connection and have iMessage enabled and are still having issues, here are two things we suggest trying:
      On both devices:
      1. Turn iMessage off, wait a few minutes, then turn it back on again.
      2. After disabling then re-enabling iMessage, power the device off, wait a minute, then turn it back on.
      This should solve your problem. If it doesn't you may need to get in touch with Apple for further assistance.

      You don't have to add fun extras to your messages if you don't want to. Simply type in what you'd like your message to say, and send it off! If you're wanting to send an SMS message instead of using iMessage, disable iMessage in your device's settings.
