Can't send of receive photo messages on my iPhone 4

Can't send of receive photo messages on my iPhone 4

iMessage or MMS?
Make sure that MMS is "enabled" in message settings.
You need to have MMS configured and activated on your plan in order to send or receive photo messages/MMS. Confirm it from your carrier.
Once configured/activated, cellular data/3G is required to be able to send/receive MMS.

    I can't send or receive text messages from non iphone users

    Under Settings - Messages, do it state Sens SMS ON? Should be (this applies to imessage but just in case).
    Same area, MMS Messaging is on? Should be.
    If all else fails, go into Settings General Reset - Reset Network Settings (this will lose WiFi info but fixes a lot of messaging errors).

  • Can't send nor receive photos to/from non-iPhone users

    I have Metro PCS and I have unlimited data and ever since I updated to iOS 8, I haven't been able to send picture messages to non-iPhone users. I have tried everything I've found online and nothing works. It was working PERFECTLY before we updated to iOS8! I could send picture messages to anyone without any problem. The rest of my family, who share the same family plan with me, can send pictures just fine (they're all android users). However, my sister and I, who are iPhone 5s users, can't send nor receive picture messages. Every time we try to send a pic to an android user, it immediately says not delivered. It doesn't even try to send it. And it's not a problem with my data because I can watch youtube videos with my 4g just fine. I even turn off the Wi-Fi to test it out and it works well. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    I'm happy that it works for you. It may not be an option for the OP. It certainly wouldn't work for me as I have a fair number of friends with basic phones. Again, Whatsapp is only viable as a replacement for SMS if everyone you want to message is willing to download and use it. If everyone the OP knows is not wiilling to do that, they may need to resolve their existing problem.

  • Cannot send or receive photo messages from non iPhone users .

    MY sister is having same issue with her phone no new updates overnight I could use this feature yesterday have tried everything I can think of please help

    (Insert fact!) Nothing that KiltedTim provided you was incorrect. While your device may have needed and responded to a reset (which there is no such definition in iPhone troubleshooting as a hard reset), what he provided is still true. MMS is a carrier feature, and is controlled by their settings.

  • I cant send or receive photo messages after update i0s 6

  • Why can't I send or receive picture messages on my iPhone 4s?

    Why can't I send or receive picture messages on my iPhone 4s?

    Make sure that MMS is turned on in Settings. Sometimes that can get turned off during an update, if you recently did that. Next try would be a reset. If that doesn't help, then contact the carrier, as SMS and MMS are carrier specific functions.

  • HT1355 Can you send and receive text messages in airplane mode?

    Can you send and receive text messages while in airplane mode?

    No. Regular SMS's require a cellular connection. However, iMessage will work in Airplane Mode, as all that requires is an Internet connection. You can turn WiFi back on while in Airplane Mode.

  • Can't send and receive text messages

    Hello,
    For around 2-3 weeks I can't send and receive text messages. When I try to text somebody, the message appears as "Not delivered". On the ! there are only 2 options: Try again and Cancel. If I choose to "Try again", the results is the same: the message is not delivered.
    When somebody is trying to text me, the message appears as delivered on their phone, but does not reach mine.
    Please advice
    Regards
    Irina

    Yes, I contact them and the problem was on their side. Now my problem is solved

    Another thing you can try is to ensure that the setting for ( send as sms if imessage unavailable ) is turned on, this can be found in Settings : Messages. If this doesnt work you can also try changing the contact details to read mobile instead of iphone.
    That setting is not relevant to sending SMS messages to non-iPhones. It only affects what happens when an iMessage won't go through to an iOS device. And, what the phone number is labeled has no effect on anything. You could create a custom label "Rutabaga" and the SMS would still go through if the account was properly provisioned. Those labels are for human brain convenience only.

  • I can neither send nor reply to messages from my iPhone 4.  It may be since I downloaded iOS 6.0 but not sure.

    I can neither send nor reply to messages from my iPhone 4.  It may be since I downloaded iOS 6.0 but not sure.  Any suggestions?

    No, sorry, I meant emails.  I can no longer compose emails or reply to emails on my iPhone -- only receive them.  Any idea why?  Thank you!

  • I cannot send or receive text messages from other iPhone users. I don't get an error I just don't receive any messages and the other users do not receive mine.

    Reset the devices: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

  • After updating to IOS 7.0.3 I can't send or receive text messages. Everything is working and normal.

    After updating my ipad to IOS 7.0.3 I can no longer send or receive text messages. every thing else is working normally.

    I have the same problem since updating to IOS 8.3. Any app to which I want to send a new link via IMessage does not allow me to select a contact to send the IMessage to. Using a pre-existing thread does not have same problem.

  • Can i send and receive mms messages in my ipad ?

    how i can send and receive mms messages in my ipad?

    You should be able to do this through the iMessage app if the other person is connected through an apple device If not however there are plenty of apps on the app store that you would be able to use to send pics as long as the other user has a smart phone (does not have to be apple)... for example WhatsApp, Kik, Skype etc Hope that this helps!

  • Brand New Iphone 5c can't send or receive text messages of any kind!? I've tried everything, why does no one have a solution for this? There's no way we're keeping a phone that can't even perform one of it's most basic functions. Help!

    Got the new Iphone 5c from Verizon today and was really happy with the phone until we realized it is unable to send or recieve text messages AT ALL. We've tried everything, searched the internet for hours, I've tried live chatting with Verizon and Apple ALL DAY and somehow keep getting "disconnected" even though my internet is working perfectly. The phone is pretty much useless if it's unable to perform one of it's main functions and it's really dissapointing to add a line, get the phone, only to discover a major problem with seemingly no solution whatsoever. Is there any fix for this? Because a phone that is incapable of sending or receiving a simple SMS message is pretty much useless. It's too bad too because I really love the phone if not for that. Does anyone have a legitimate way to solve this problem? We've done everything, network resets, turning imessaging on and off, factory reset, etc. etc. etc. and nothing works. Please help.

        Hello Idkallday!
    I know your device sends and receives text messages! Let's get to work on this! Did you port your service from another carrier, or is this a new number? Is your previous device still powered on?
    I also want to ask if you are able to use iMessaging, and if you see any error message when sending?
    Please test it by sending a message to your own mobile number, and keep us posted!

  • Problem I-message? I can't send and receive the messages.

    from last Sunday I have a problem with I-message. It's impossible to send and receive the messages. what's the problem?

    I assume you have tried all of the troubleshooting here?
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    It would also help to head to Settings -> General -> Date & Time and make sure it is set to Automatic.  You could also try using Google's DNS servers as doing so has resolved the issue for a number of users.  Head to Settings -> Wi-Fi and tap the > next to the network you are connected to.  Scroll down to the DNS fields and enter in8.8.8.8and 8.8.4.4.
