You will need the cellular data connection turned on and active in order to receive MMS picture messages.
Not if you're using Verizon Messages, as the OP indicates they're doing; MMS will send/receive over wi-fi.

Have you tried contacting Vodafone to make sure MMS messaging is enabled on your account?

Contact your operator and ask them to send you the required settings via SMS.

Cannot send or receive photos via txt messages?!?

with my BB I was sending and receiving photos from all my children and other relatives. On my brand new Galaxy S4 no photos get sent or received. Any advice would be appreciated.

Sorry, I have no suggestions for you. I have sent many pics via txt message with no problems. You might check to see how large your pics are. There may be a limit on the size you can send by txt.

Cannot receive or send photos on a iPhone 5?

Do you have MMS turned on in message settings?
Are you provisioned by your carrier to use MMS?

IPhone 4 cannot send or receive photos, just texts?

Worked fine yesterday but now I can't do anything. Tried a network reset and checked MMS settings to make sure that they were correct. Basically when I select a photo to send and choose a contact, I check the status and the bar gets about 85% full and gets 'stuck'
I'm getting pretty frustrated with Apple these days. UGH!

Have you been able to resolve this issue?
If not, have you tried these steps: support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
You may be able to skip a couple steps like confirming your account is provisioned for MMS because it used to work before.

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.

TS3672 why can't I send or receive photos in my messages?

Cannot send or receive photos messages on my iphone 4 version 6.1.3. It all worked perfectly until about 2 months ago ( the phone is almost 3 years old). I received a couple of photos which had been sent 2 weeks previously! but mostly I get the message to go online (Vodafone) and use a password they provide. Have been to Vodafone about the problem, they supplied me with a new Sim card and said that would solve the problem but no such luck. Really annoying! Any suggestions/solutions gratefully received. Thanks.

I cannot send or receive text photos from my iphone 5c

I cannot send or receive attached photos to a text from my iphone 5c to any user other than other iphone users. Help!!!

You are welcome. Good luck.
PS.
Do a reset, it will clear off some glitches you might have:
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

I cannot send or receive calls, but I can send and receive text and data? (Samsung Galaxy S5)

I purchased my Samsung Galaxy S5 about a month ago now, and recently I cannot send or receive any phone calls. I can however send text messages and use data. What do I do?

That's not good to hear, ctshudy2016. What happens when you attempt to send pic message? Does a received message give you the option to download? Please provide me with a few more details.

Since I downloaded ios7 my Photos freezes up and I cannot send or edit photos. Anyone else having this problem?

Since I downloaded ios7 my Photos freezes up and I cannot send or edit photos. The only way to unfreeze Photos is to completely close it out and re-open it. Even doing that it freezes up every time. Anyone else having this problem?

If you still can't send or receive iMessages
Ensure that iMessage is turned on in Settings > Messages.
To send and receive iMessages, your device must have a valid cellular or Wi-Fi data connection.
iPhone: Troubleshooting Cellular data
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
iMessage registration validates your Apple ID for use with iMessage. If you are unable to activate iMessage, follow this article.
If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will be resent using SMS or MMS, depending on the content. You can turn this behavior on or off in Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Carrier messaging rates may apply.
Verify that the Apple ID or phone number is listed in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
Note: To receive iMessages sent to your phone number on your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac, you must meet the following requirements:
iPad or iPod touch using iOS 6 or a Mac using OS X 10.8.2.
Verify that you are signed in to your Apple ID account on Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

Cannot send texts on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in 713 and surrounding area codes (or anywhere) Any ideas?

Cannot send texts on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in 713 and surrounding area codes (or anywhere that I know of). Is anyone else familiar with this issue. I receive texts just fine. I have tried an alternate texting app and rebooting the phone and I have checked my account online to make sure now safeguards have blocked texting or anything else.
It just keeps trying to send for a while and then comes back failed. Everytime any number I try. But I can receive texts.
Thanks in advance for any ideas :/

Hi EmotionOrDie,
The Galaxy Note 3 is a fantastic device! I'm sure you're eager to use the device to the fullest of its abilities. Has this been an issue since you first received the device? Just to ensure that were on the same page, the 713 area code is the Houston, TX area?
I would suggest clear all text threads that are currently on the phone. Once the text threads have removed head into Settings > Apps > Manage Apps > All > Messaging > Clear Data then test.

Cannot send or receive texts on 2/3 of the S4s we have.

Hello,
Me, my mom, and my dad all have Galaxy S4s. Text messaging has been working great for me, but today my dad came to me and told me his text messages kept failing when he tried to send them.
I tried sending him texts from my phone and found that they wouldn't go through. My mother's phone is the same way: Cannot send or receive.
I've tried going to: Settings/Applications Manager/All/Messaging/Clear Data/Phone Restart. This also brought no results. At this point I have no idea how to get it working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There are no issues with making and receiving calls at this time. We changed our phone plan with the purchase of the S4s. They both kept their old numbers and did not have texting until switching plans.
And about the test message, no I've tried. It always just says, "Failed." With the error code: SMS Org.D.

Hello Sue,
I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!
Michael
