For some reason, I cannot send a message to A NON iOS user on my iPad. I can with my iPhone 6.... Any solution?

OS X Yosemite is for the Mac.Didn't think I could get Yosemti on my iPad Air
Well you can't do that directly because the iPad only supports cellular data not voice and SMS which would be needed to send text messages to non iOS users.
However as mentioned above, with Continuity you will be able to send SMS with your iPad provided your iPhone is nearby. Continuity will essentially relay the SMS thru the iPhone even though you are using the iPad.

What she said (^^^^^^)
Incorrect, once 8.1 is out, you will be able to send and receive sms from your ipad as long as your phone is available on the same wifi network as your ipad
Will this work even if you don't own am iPhone and an android device for your phone?The function you are asking about is continuity. It will work by connecting your phone number on your phone to your iMessage email address. It won't be fully functional until iOS 8.1 is released later this week. It should work as expected right now with Yosemite on a Mac and with the iOS 8.1 beta.

Aww wished I could use this feature on my iPadNo. It requires iCloud and iMessage to work.
Download and use mysms as your main texting app on your phone and then download it on your iPad. Works for me.Aww wished I could use this feature on my iPad

I'm having the same issue.This is strange because it's been working for months - I was able to send non iOS Users messages and pictures from the iPad. Now it's not working.
