It keeps saying"enter characters to

If you want to send an IM, type your message into the "enter" box. If AIM suggests you send an SMS (text message) instead of an IM, check to see if the buddy you're trying to message is using their cell phone. A cell phone icon will appear next to their name in your buddy list if this is the case.
