I would suggest doing this to fix your message problems though.


1.Go to Settings > Messages > Send and Receive and sign out of your Apple ID

2. The turn iMessage off

3. Power cycle the iPhone

4. Turn iMessage on

5. Sign back in with your Apple ID and select your Send/Receive preferences.


This solution seems to have solved the problem for many users. It worked wonderfully for my wife and I.


Best of luck friends.

Tried resetting the network. Messages got lost. Some came up on iPad but not on iPhone... and sometimes on the Mac... but still not on the phone (the device I actually carry aounrd)


It's been a couple of weeks. Still no fix.


Everyone I tell laughs and says "wouldn't happen if Steve Jobs was still running Apple"... which is really sad... because it's probably true... 😕

I am having the same problem too.

I have a brand new 5S and when I send an iMessage, it seems to not send. It even says "message not delivered". However, it does send the message... Even to non-Apple users... MOST of the time, which is kind of weird, but bot the point.

However, hard reset doesn't work at ALL to fix this. I have tried everything, and everyone in my entire family with Apple has told me they are experiencing the same issues after updating to 7.0.2. That's like, 15 different devices. Hope they fix this soon.
