Why when someone sends me a picture or video and i reply to it my reply goes to everyone the picture or video originally when too.?

Why when someone sends me a picture or video and i reply to it, my reply goes to everybody that originally was sent the picture.

This is because group messaging is turned on. This means that when you send a text to multiple people they can see who it was sent to. Any response from any of those people will be to sent everybody on the text sorta like CC on an email.  To change this go to Settings>Messages>Group Messaging. If you turn it off you WILL be able to send groups messages but the people you send it to won't see who you sent it to sorta like BCC on email.

  • My iphone5 crashed Wed May 29 and I am not sure why.. I had to do a restore and have been trying to slowly get everything back on the phone... Yesterday June 6 it blacked out once and I don't have everything on the phone as before.... New one?

    My iphone5 crashed Wed May 29 and I am not sure why.. I had to do a restore and have been trying to slowly get everything back on the phone... Yesterday June 6 it blacked out once and I don't have everything on the phone as before.... Is it damaged and should I try to get a new one?

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:
    Your calendars are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

  • When someone sends me a picture as a message it never appears in the messages, but the icon shows there is a message there. I just can't access it. This has been happening since the update.

    So since I did the update on my phone, it rarely accepts picture messages. Usually the icon will show there is a message there (mine is up to 4 now), however it doesn't come through and I can't access it. I have tried a soft reset and simply restarting my phone, but it isn't working.

        @chritina9,
    Let's put an end to this mystery! Let find those picture messages.
    Just so I'm clear, you do not receive picture messages at all? You see the message notification but when you check there is no message?
    You mentioned this started after the software update. Try removing the SIM card and powering off the phone for a minute. Insert the SIM card and power the phone on. Test, by sending yourself a picture message and see if you receive it. Then have someone else send you a picture message and see if you receive it. Keep me posted.

  • When someone sends us a picture & we download, where is it?

    When friends attache a picture with the jpeg extension, we click on the picture to download it to the screen and it isn't working like that. For awhile the picture downloaded to the desktop but now it doesn't appear there either. Where is the picture downloading to?

    The download location usually is "my documents/downloads" directory. You can view and change it in '''tools''' -> '''options''' window, '''general''' panel, the 'downloads' section.

  • Someone send me large picture file on iphone and now the wheel is spinning. I have a black screen with the wheel spinning no end.

    Received email with large attachment. Couldn't open it on my iphone 4 , it seems to have crashed my phone. Turned phone off, tried to turn it on again but all I got is a  black screen and wheel going around no end. Can anybody help please?

    Reset your phone. Hold down the Sleep and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears. This has no effect on your data.

  • POP UP's I get lot of pop ups to join Adobe Acrobat XI.  I am already subscribing and why I am getting this I do not know and I would like to know how to turn this off. This nuisance is wasting too much of my time.

    Does anyone know how to stop the POP UPs?
    I receive Adobe POP UPs to subscribe to Adobe XI which I already have joined but this nuisance.
    If Adobe has a bug than they should remove it.
    If anyone knows what to do let me know.
    I talked with one of their operator and I followed his instructions. According to him it was taken care of but apparently this morning the moment I opened the computer POP UP was the first thing that came up on the screen.
    Need solution.

    If you're getting a message that you are running a TRIAL (or demo), you must solve this problem. The messages are not the problem, the problem is that it doesn't know you own the product. And when 30 days are up it will stop working.
    So, don't ignore the pop-ups. Instead, license the software. With a subscription, you simply have to sign in so it knows who you are.

  • TS2755 How do I know if someone sent me a picture message without always having to have LTE on?

    It's frustrating when I'm having a conversation with somebody and suddenly they stop talking. It's even more frustrating when I find out that they didn't stop talking, they just sent me a picture. Unfortunately, because I obviously don't want to have to keep LTE on all the time, I have no way of knowing when someone sends me a picture. Is there any way for me to get some sort of notification without using cellular data? I would just like to be able to know that there is something there.

    I would second that prior comment - not sure what you are trying to do
    In many cases the pictures will come through even on 3G especially if the other person is on a GSM carrier like T-Mo or AT&T
    The text / Message notification should ding - and you see a badge icon notification if that is turned on
    Sorry if I am completely missing your point

    Are you using MMS to send/receive?  If so:
    Have you checked Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging is set to "On"?
    Have you checked that your cellular carrier allows MMS and you are signed up for it (may cost extra)?
