Cannot send or receive video messages on Windows X...

Hello,
Can anyone please help with this issue. I cannot send or receive any video messages from my desktop. I have Windows XP ; and  I do not use the Internet Explorer.
I have looked through the Community Blog and deleted some files from the Skype folder. However installing the latest version of skype and restarting computer hasnt helped. In fact, the video message option doesnt even light up. That is:  I can't select that option at all.
Is it some glitch? What can I do to rectify this.
I can see the link to the video if someone sends it to me but as soon as I click the play button; it just gets blocked.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks
Solved!

It's not a glitch. Sending Video Messages was never available on Windows XP computers. This feature is only available on Windows 7 and higher systems.
You should be able to receive Video Messages. However, for this you need to install the latest Internet Explorer IE8 version for Windows XP and download Flash Player for Internet Explorer.

  • Cannot send or receive MMS messages!!

    I cannot send or receive MMS messages on my BT mobile HTC S620.  Also I keep getting the BT Set-up screen yet it won't proceed past the first step of four!  I have re-set this handset back to factory settings and updated the software via computer/download, however, I cannot find a solution to get my MMS messages! Help please?  (By the way wireless, emails and SMS messages work fine.)
    Solved!

    Sounds like something has gone wrong with regards to the MMS settings and looks like you'll need to re-enter them.
    The settings I found for it as follows:
    Access point name: mobile.bt.uk
    Username: user
    Password: btmms
    Authentication: Normal
    Data bearer: GPRS
    Gateway IP address: 212.183.137.012 or 62.239.21.123
    Session mode: Permanent
    URL address: http://mms.bt.com/servlets/mms or http://mmsc.btmms.co.uk:8002
    We have also been told that the following settings may work for a corporate BT Mobile: APN: btmobile.bt.com , username:bt , password:bt, port:8799 , IP address:212.183.137.12
    My Motto:
    Going to kill my HomeHub 2 very soon.

  • Cannot send or receive text messages on Pantech Breakout

    I cannot send or receive text messages on my pantech breakout. Anyone know the solution

    There could be many reasons - and you've given us no clues.  Let me ask you some questions that may help us find a solution:
    Is this a new phone, or a new account?
    Did you recently port your number to Verizon from another carrier?
    Did you recently change your plan?
    Have you been able to send and receive text messages, with this phone or another Verizon phone?
    A few background details will help.

  • Iphone 4 cannot send or receive text message

    I just got my iphone 4 yeaterday. Everything works fine except for the text messages. I can make and receive call, but cannot send or receive text messages. Does anyone have this problam?
    After I hit "send", it sounds message sent successfully, but my friend did not get it. Also I asked my friend to send one to me, nothing!

    it's a software issue... a lot of customers are having all kinds of issues with their new iPhone 4. But, don't be dismayed, there may be a way to fix it.
    some ideas is trying going to settings -> general -> rest -> then tap on "Rest Network Settings". This will then rest all the of network settings, and hopefully fix transmitting and recieving issues that you may have with your iPhone.

  • Cannot send or receive pic messages (lg cosmos)

    my husband and i both have lg cosmos phones.  we're on vacation (still in the US) and cannot send or receive picture messages all of a sudden.  we can send and receive TEXT messages, just not picture messages.  the same thing happened to my mom when she was here (she has a samsung).  is it just the area we're in or what?  why can we send texts and not pic messages???

    Check your signal and type of coverage... if it's 1X then all you have is text messages; if it says 3G then pics (which actually use a data connection, but count as text messages) are OK.  if it says Extended coverage or Extended network or Roaming, then pics won't go until you reach an area where there is a strong enough DATA signal to send/receive pics.

  • 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?

    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.

  • After transferring my contacts on to my iPhone, I cannot send or receive text messages to some of them. Even if they text me, I cannot reply!

    After transferring my contacts to my iPhone, I can no longer send or receive text messages from some of them. Even if they text me, I cannot send a reply!

    Same problem persists also here. Have crosschecked with friend, all same settings, have deleted the contacted, created again, still that number does not receive my SMS (no question on iMessage). Can not even reply her message. This problem persists with few numbers, nothing common, different phones, different countries, different operators. All others, with different operators, in different coutries receive my messages. Even other people can send their SMS to her.

  • IPod touch 4G cannot send, only receive picture messages

    As the title says.  I am able to send and receive normal messages, am connected to wifi, etc.  The only function that is not working is the ability to SEND picture messages.  I am able to receive them just fine - after yet another picture message failed, I had a friend send me a test picture, and immediately after successfully receiving it, I attempted to resend - failure, again.  It also has been taking up to a couple minutes for the "!" failed notification to appear on the messages.
    Things I have tried already today:
    - "renew lease" on wifi
    - toggled iMessages on and off
    - reset my iPod
    - upgraded to iOS 6.1.3 (from 6.0.1; hadn't seen a need to since I first got the iPod)
    All with no success.  It stopped working sometime between June 5th and June 10th.  It is driving me absolutely MAD and I cannot find any helpful and recent information.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

  • My iPhone 4s cannot send or receive picture message

    I cannot send or receive picture message

    Had the same prob w/ pics not sending.  Spent hours on phone and finally got problem solved.  Hopefully this will help other people experiencing this problem. 
    First, go Settings, then select Phone.  Under "My number" it should say your current number.  If it doesn't (as it didn't in my case) call sprint (dial *2 on your phone).  Tell the sprint agent you would like your Name assigned to your number. 
    In my case, I had been added to an existing family plan.  I was assigned a random new cell phone number, but then later changed it to my old existing phone number from AT&T.  So if you are like me and brought your old cell phone number with you when you switched to Sprint, then this may be the issue. 
    When I was experiencing the problem with my pictures not sending, the wrong phone number was showing as my number on the phone (even though people could call and text me using my current number). 

  • Cannot send or receive mms messages iphone 3gs

    I have an iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.1.6 the phone is locked to AT&T. I use a Straight Talk SIM and have, voice, data, and Text but cannot send or receive MMS. I have gone through the APN update for Straight talk and even talked to spoke with a tech support rep. He said that he adjusted the APN settings for my SIM card and still not able to send.

    SMS/MMS are carrier features so take it out with them.

  • Droid 2 Global-Cannot Send or Receive Text messages

    I have a Droid 2 Global and the text messaging is not working. Whenever I try to send a text I get a message that it has not been sent. I also asked a friend to text me, and the text did not come through. I tried rebooting the phone (removing the battery and such), but that was to no avail. I am unable to send or receive text messages. Does anyone have suggestions?

    Wow that must be very inconvenient! Do you know when you last able to send or receive a successful message? Are you able to send and receive e-mails? Is it possible you have a message blocking feature on your account? Are you using a third party messaging app or the standard messaging application from the handset?
