Margaret, this is an iOS 7 bug. On your iPhone do the following: 1. Select SETTINGS 2. Select MESSAGES 3. Enable the SEND_AS_SMS setting
The next try may take a few minutes to revert to a green-colored SMS text but afterwards the messages should go as SMS texts right away. romeoyankee On Wednesday, March 12, 2014 6:17:33 PM UTC-4, Margaret wrote: > > I have an iPhone 5 and my son doesn’t have an iPhone but he use too. the > problem I’m having is since I upgraded my phone to IOS 7.1 is when I send a > text message to him it sends as an iMessage and it goes but he doesn’t > receive it. before I upgraded the message wouldn’t go and a button would > come up saying something like not send and I would double tap on it and > move over to text and send the text message as a text message.
