Works fine in the UK - Anthony Jackson

Well, that is exactly what I did (and I presume my son-in-law did, too).

To be clear, I put in 44 then my mobile number, with the leading zero missing, no spaces, no other characters. The response I got from the SMS widget is:

"Please enter a valid area code!"

I just ttried it again - same result.

My carrier is T-Mobile, I entered an email address, don't know what else I can tell you?

OS 10.4.8 PPC (12" G4 PBk 1.5 GHz).

Oh, of course I did read the help. It gives an example of a UK number inputted as I did, with no spaces or 'plus' sign.

I also found that by mousing over the 'i' beside the number I was given an example, +44 1234567890 which is, of course, a UK number style. So I tried again, with the numbers presented as in this example - i.e. with a plus sign and a space after the area code. Same result.

Is there perhaps a confusion with T-Mobile as a provider (with it existing in the US as well as the UK?)

My number begins 07947, so I put 447947 followed by the six figures of my personal phone number.

It could be so useful...!

Hi Anthony,

In the carrier popup menu, try selecting "International" (at the very bottom) instead of T-Mobile.

Even though I put my number with 44 in front it appears on the recipients mobile as 447800002127. Any ideas why?
