Send iMessage as text message
One of my best friends just switched from an iPhone to an HTC One X. When he texts me, I can't text him back because it sends as an iMessage and he doesn't receive it. How can I send an iMessage as a text message? I have iOS 7 downloaded onto my iPhone if that helps.
I've already tried to hold down the message for options but all it says is "Copy" and "More". When I tap more, it just selects the message so I can resend it. Nothing's working!
You have to go into settings and then go to your Message settings and sign out of imessage.
Your friends number is saved as iPhone in their contact instead of mobile. Go into your contacts, and change their number from iphone to mobile
- Why won't my message send as an iMessage? I'm trying to send my friend a message over iMessage from my iPhone to their iPhone. It keeps going green when I type in his name which means its a normal text and I don't know how to make it an iMessage
- Why won't my 5c send a message as MMS when it's a long message to a non iPhone user? Whenever I type a LONG message to an SMS user (says Text Message in the messaging "box") my 5c won't convert to MMS and the recipient gets the message in dozens of out of order messages instead of the whole fluid message. I have MMS on in Settings. What can I do and why is it doing this?
- What does this mean: Free Msg: Receiver unable to receive message - Message Blocking is active mean on iPhone's iMessage? I tried sending my friend a text and it replied with this. We haven't gotten into any fights and we hung out for hours recently. Has she blocked me?
- IMessage won't send only text message? My 3G Is on, I have a good data plan, and my text messages send just fine, I have all service bars. Why won't my Imessages send? I have an iPhone 4S
