iOS 7 Messaging Problem – A Quick Fix until the Real Fix Arrives

By Judy Novotny / 10/02/2013 / Apple iOS Devices, Apple iOS Operating System

Some iOS 7 users are having problems sending text messages. Apple is working on a fix but until it is available, you may want to try this:

Step 1: Turn off iMessage (Settings > Messages).
Step 2: Reset networking settings (Settings > General > Reset).
Step 3: Reenable iMessage (Settings > Messages).

This fix will cause your device to forget any previously entered Wi-Fi passwords.
