Can't retrieve content when someone sends me an MMS message
Hi folks
I can't seem to retrieve content from MMS messages when they are sent to me. All the settings are there as far as I know and it's also set to automatically retrieve them but it won't seem to work.
I have a Curve 3G 9300 Smartphone and am on O2. It's a pay as you go but have a data plan and can use the internet and email with no problems whatsoever.
Any suggestions?
Well I don't know if it works the same way in the US but here in the UK we have to ask O2 to turn off MMS on our contracts. It should be set up that way by default but is sometimes not. When that is done you get the text asking you to go to the web site to view and including the pin number needed.

When someone send me a message I don't want them to no I read it I click allow this to happen when I first updated my phone but I do not want this feature how can I take it out ?
If you mean iMessage then go into Messages in the Settings app. The feature is Read Receipts.

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 husband and I both have iPhones. We are currently using the same Apple ID. I have my own ID but when I send him a text message it comes back to me or goes to my computer. How do we separate the 2 ID's so we can send messages?
You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.
Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
A
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
7. iOS - Unable to update or restore
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software. -
I have two numbers listed in my messages tab under settings. One number is checked(mine) and other is not(my sons). However when someone sends me a test it goes to both numbers. Mine and my sons. How do I delete his number so that he no longer received texts intended for me.
The best way is to not share Apple IDs but also make sure under Settings & Messages on both devices that only one phone number is checked.

Whenever i get a message from imessage (text works fine) i get a different tone than what i chose - specifically 'Bulletin' - and i don't know ow to change it to the one i want. When someone sends a text however, it plays the tone i want. How do i get iMessage to play the same tone as the text tone?
* correction * When people send me messages from iPod/iPad it works perfectly fine.
It just doesnt play the tone when iphones imessage me. (if it helps, its a customized tone) -
I don't recieve emoji when someone sends me 1 , just :0-'
I don't receive emoji when someone sends me 1 , just :0-' no pictures
If the person is sending you an emoticon, it wouldn't appear as a picture. Back in the old days, before emoji, that's how we did it.
wink = ;-)
smile = :-)
laugh = ;-D
And so on. -
I have a iPhone 3GS and my husband has an iPhone 4, both phones are updated. We added iMessage the them both and at first it was great, the messages appear in the text messages under the phone contacts and when I send a text message it will either be a green message or a blue one for (iMessage) depending on the signal. Now when my husband sends a text message to me I don't get them all or some days none. When I send him a text message he gets them from my email address. I cannot send him a standard text anymore my phone only wants to iMessage, so if the signal is not right it just sits there undelivered???
I also have a friend who that we regularly texted each other, for the past 4 months I can receive her texts but she never gets mine? And I have tried countless times, now iv given up trying and I don't use texting to either, but everyone else no problem.You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that. Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card. Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account.
Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud. Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account. To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate. -

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!

Help me please... Since moving my iPhone 4S with iOS 7.0.4 to straight talk I cannot send or receive mms messages. How can I fix that?
Since Straight Talk, using a GSM iPhone is not "officially" supported, you're gonna have to configure the APN settings manually. Go here:

This site is a collection of APN setting for unsupported GSM carriers. This is a good place to get the correct settings for your phone.
