Can't do anything in group message

I am entirely unable to use one of my group messages. I have an iPhone 5 AT&T version 8.1.3, (I haven't gotten the new software). One of my group messages that I have been in even before ios8, is entirely disabled. The enter text bubble where you type a message along with the send button and camera button, are entirely non-existstant, and all of the options under info (do not disturb, rename, etc.) are grayed out. No one else in the group has an issue but none of them have updated either. I am still in the gm, by just unable to use it. I've done a hard reset and restartingg messages, to no avail. This is the only message with an issue, the singular and group messages (even those with the same contacts) are wirking fine. I'm alsI the only one with an iPhone 5, everyone else in the message has a 5s or more, though this hasn't been an issue before. I can upload a picture once I get home. Thanks!

Hi,
Is your problem resolved now or do you still need assistance?

  • Nokia 928. Latest win 8.1 software. Can not get MMS / picture / group messages

    MMS on my Nokia 928 use to work. After an upgrade is doesn't work (? - could be a coincidence it happened after an upgrade?). I get the message "Get media content now."  Tapping on the link doesn't do anything.  Doesn't matter whether I'm using wi-fi or cellular data. If I go to Settings > Cellular+SIM > SIM Settings > add MMS APN, the fields are blank. At the microsoft support site it says to save your settings, but it doesn't tell you what these settings should be. The fields on this form are APN, User Name, Password, WAP gateway, WAP gateway port, etc, etc.   Should this form be filled in? If so, what are the settings?
    I need both picture messaging and group messaging. Right now it is broken.

        HFGuy, We certianly know the importance of ensuring your MMS is working properly. Let's look into this. Do you notice this error occuring when you are connected to our 3G/4G LTE network or Wifi? Are you receiving this error message when trying to send MMS or receive? Also, can you please confirm the current software loaded on your Nokia 928?

  • How many email addresses can I include in a group message on my mac email

    I am trying to send a group message on email.  My group has 130 addresses in it however my email will not send to all of them.  What is the maximum amount of email addresses you can include in a group for a successful transmission over email?

    It appears that your problem is due to your mail provider and not Mac Mail since this

    includes
    Note that most mail servers will reject messages that have too many — often over 50 or maybe 25 — recipients.
    For mailing larger groups easily, you can use a group mailing service.

  • Can't send Picture or Group Messages

    I have a 16GB white iPhone 5 & I have only had it for less than a week now. I have noticed that for whatever reason, my phone will not send picture messages. It will fill the "sending bar" to about 85% and then say "not delivered." And I'm "NOT PLEASED." I can't send group messages either and would like to know what is going on with my phone. I have already tried resetting my general settings and that did not work. Any help is appreciated. I think it's ridiculous that it's acting up seeing as how I haven't even had the time to get used to it. You're slacking Verizon.

        PaddyDuff,
    Good afternoon. First I would like to apologize for the delay in responding to your post. Let's get to the bottom of this on going messaging issue you are experiencing. When sending a picture message from your iPhone, please ensure your Cellular Data is turned on. Settings>General>Cellular>Cellular Data On. Sending a picture message will require you to be connected to a Verizon data connection. Unfortunately, picture messages will not send over wi-fi. I do apologize for any confusion this may have caused. If you have Cellular data turned on and you are still unable to send a picture, please reach out to us to further troubleshoot. Have an great day!
    Thank You,

  • Why can't I respond to group message

    I Have an iPhone 5 running iOS 8 and am not sure about the new group message feature, unless the convo is active the features are greyed out under details and I have no way of replying back a few hours later bcause the text box is missing at the bottom and won't pull up. How can I get the text box to show up without creating a whole new group message every time the convo isn't active.

    Same here... The reply field is just gone! iPhone 5, iOS 8.0.2.

  • HT201287 Can I set up a group message and have myself to be the only one to get responses

    I often send group messages about where the group will be going to dinner, or what time an event will be held. I am the only one who needs to get responses to the group message, but everyone in the group gets all responses which is aggravating to most of the group members. Is there a way to send a group message, with me being the only one to receive responses?

    Not through the built in Messages app. There may be other group messaging apps that would allow you to do that. However, everyone you message would need to have he same app installed.

  • Can't edit members of my group message?  4S / iOS 8.1

    Up to date iPhone 4S user. I can add people to a group message, but if I go to details and swipe to delete on a name nothing happens...I can't seem to delete a user from the chat. (a friend asked to be removed from a particular group) Also to see if it was just that one chat, I started a test group message and can't seem to remove users from that one as well. If I delete the group completely will the other members be removed as well or will my friend continue receiving messages?
    This is frustrating...is this because someone in the group message is using an older phone or iOS?

    Howdy syafiqahmad,
    If your iMessage and FaceTime still hasn't activated by now, I would recommend you use this specific section of the following article as long as you verify you've done all the other troubleshooting from it for this issue:
    If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime 
    If you're using an iPhone, contact your carrier to make sure that you can receive SMS messages.
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • Group message in Mail returned by server

    I am converting from using Entourage to Mail. Although I have a mac.com account, I use an Earthlink account for sending and receiving email. I have no problems with individual messages through Earthlink.
    I created a group from addresses input individually into Address Book. When I try sending a group message, I get a failure message and the response: "Your message does not conform to RFC2822 standard."
    How can I use Mail for group messages with my Earthlink account? Group messages in Entourage were delivered.

    Hey, thanks for that! It is very intersting to see how that works. Looks like the outgoing mail queue can change "on demand", like when you left only one account active. This means that the ability to send emails from any of the accounts regardless of where it came in is just a programming step away...

  • Can't send MMS or group text to non-iPhones.

    Previously i had no problems with this until a couple of weeks ago.
    There wasn't some event that i am aware of that caused an onset of this.
    Now I can only send pictures or group messages to other iPhones.
    I have cellular data,  MMS and SMS settings on.
    Have tried sending picture text and group messages with and without wifi on (as well as switching the others on/off one at a time & testing).
    Tried with iMessage on/off.
    Tried every combo of Send & Receive phone/email (& off).
    Reset network settings.
    Wiped phone clean and restored with iCloud backup.
    Using AT&T.
    Still nothing.

    Can send text-only messages to non-iPhones.
    Any other ideas out there?

  • How to add recipent to group message

    Just wondering if you can add someone to a group message that you've recieved on the 4s? I've tried just adding them, but it won't let me. Is the original sender the only one that can add them?

    No right now it's not a feature on the iphone.  In order to add someone you would have to create a whole new imessage and include that person with the original group.
    YOu can send a feedback to apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • HT4623 I have the iphone 4s and its updated to iOS 6.1.1 - Yesterday, I sent out a text to 10 people (my group messaging is set to OFF). I found out this morning that several people recieved responses from my friends/family. What can I do about this? Anyt

    I have the iphone 4s and its updated (ios 6.1.1). I've always had my group messaging set to OFF. Everytime I send a text to multiple folks, I find out that they were able to see everyone elses responses to me. My boss told me this morning that she saw responses from my friends/family from a picture I sent yesterday. Is there ANYTHING that can be done about this? It's important to be able to send texts to multiple people. I have to update them alot on my husbands illness. Help!

    Group messaging simply puts all replies in one conversation in Messages.   It doesn't prevent the behavior you experienced.
    My suggestion which would be much easier in my opinion, is rather than do a text, send out an email and use bcc: , which will keep the audience hidden from each recipient.
    Otherwise, if you're determinted to do only texts, the only way is to send your message to one person at a time.   You can of course copy/paste your msg each time which might be helpful.

  • How can I not reveal group members' email addresses when sending a group message?

    I want to send a group message without revealing, as a courtesy, the email addresses of everyone in my group to all members of the group. How can I mask the other recipients? --Gary

    Use BCC instead of TO. That is what that feature is for.

  • My iPod touch 4th gen. Keeps giving me the error message "cannot connect to the app store when I sign in. I can open the app store and browse it but I can't download anything. I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect.

I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect. I turned it off and restarted it 3 times now. I have an iPad 2 and the app store works flawlessly with it. What is going on?

    Same here on my lpad2. Can access the web just fine from browsers but cannot install new apps or updates in appl store.  Seeing a few others reporting same issue tonight so likely an apple server issue and staff will notice it in network monitors and fix it...sometime this weekend.
