Cant receive/send MMS since IOS5 update.HELP :(

Just recently updated my Iphone 4 to IOS 5.  But now I can receive or send mms to non-Iphone mobiles.  Have resetted Iphone, turned Off, pressed Home&Power button together.  NOTHING!  My iphone is not Jailbroken, just want to send and receive mms messages.
Was able to send before the update.  Am not happy
Im with Optus Prepaid if that matters. 
Frustrated

Also tried the sending MMS with no WiFi and on 3G....nope. ddnt work.  MMS Tab is on in Settings too....So can you help?

Hi J,
Just had the same problem myself.
Ended up giving in and called OPTUS.
I had to go to settings, general, down to reset, reset network settings, enter code.
Then go back to settings, carrier, turn automatic off, it will search for other carriers, (may take a while), then select a different carrier than yours, let it put a tick next to that carrier, then select your original carrier (may take awhile again), then when tick next to your carrier, turn automatic back on.
Test and see if you can send yourself an MMS. (always takes a while to go thorugh).
If that works, pick a friend and try to send MMS to them.
It appears to be a resetting requirement since the upgrade. Hope its not necessary every upgrade.
I am a happy girl, now it works.
Let me know if it works for you...Fingers crossed.

    i cant send mms since i updated to ios 8 with wind mobile

    Hey beastlyhippo,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you are having trouble with MMS messages. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    If you can't send and receive MMS
    You will need these to send and receive MMS:
    An iPhone 3G or later
    iOS 3.1 or later
    A cellular data connection (MMS isn't available if you're using only Wi-Fi)
    A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You might need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact (Contact your carrier for more information.)
    A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network that is different from your billing cellular provider's network (Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.)
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps
    Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
    Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
    Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
    Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you're roaming on a cellular provider network that is different from your billing provider's network.
    Make sure that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar of your iPhone.
    Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
    Make sure that you can send and receive SMS. If you can't send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above. MMS might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
    Restart your iPhone.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    Remove your SIM card and insert it again.
    If you still can't send or receive MMS, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you're sending a group message.
    Make sure that you're using the area code with the contact's phone number. When you send messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
    If you're using a "Pay as you go" MMS plan, make sure it has enough available balance. If you're unsure of your MMS plan or available balance, contact your carrier.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the new contact.
    Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
    If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process might not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
    Contact your carrier to verify that you're provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
    Contact your carrier to verify that there aren't blocks or filters on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
    Your carrier might require modified APN settings to use MMS.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • I cant open email attachments since ios5 update

    Since updating to ios5 I cant open email attachments, (word, excel or pdfs)- help please!

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Won't send mms since 5.0 update

    My iphone 4 won't send mms since I updated it to the 5.0

    Found the solution to my problem in another thread...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11633377#11633377
    Essentially, I tracked down my CosmoPod installation and moved it to the desktop. My CosmoPod was in HD>Library>Input Managers, though others have found it in a folder called SIMBL in Application Support.

  • TS2755 How come my iphone 5 will not send messages or receive them ever since I updated it a few hours ago?

    Why will my iphone 5 not send or receive messages ever since I updated it to iOS 7.0.4 a few hours ago?

    I have no idea, works on mine. Does it still do that after you do a Reset? (Hold down the home and sleep button, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.)

  • Im losing will to live! iphone3gs not being recognised anymore in itunes or iphoto via usb since IOS5 update

    Im really really p'd off with this!!!!! 
    Have had my 3GS for 2 years and it has always been recognised in Itunes and iphoto when plugged into my macbook pro (10.6.8) with the usb. Now since IOS5 update it intermittidely recognised it, now it doesnt at all,  I plug it in it beeps then nothing, I have tried everything in all the tech services advice. Last week it did finally recognise it and I had time to switch off the wifi syncing which I now realise was a mistake as now I cant sync it at all. I have uninstalled itunes, reinstalled itunes. Been here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3540 tried it nothing, tried everything, swearing at the devices is not working, thinking about throwing through a window to see if that helps!
    Seriously I need to sync and get all the photos off from past 2 months, why is this not working anymore? Is it a problem with IOS5 10.6.8 snowleopard and 3GS combo?
    Can anyone suggest how I get it working again please!!!

    I have experienced everything you have and more pixel ate it.  
    My last sync was around Dec. 14 and have been unable to do so until yesterday. My PC is now freezing, itunes does not want to open and it now sees the iPone as a camera but not recognized in iTunes.
    I have tired addition to re-installing iTunes 4 different times:  tried to install an older version and rebuilt a compatible library file, deleted and re-built current library versions, started entire computer in safe mode, disabled add-ons, ran a registry fix program, ran a Win-Fix program, done a system restore 2x, re-authorized the iPhone more than twice, turned iCloud off to try sync via USB, ensured I had an 'enhanced' usb port needed for OS5, that I can recount!
    My PC was working perfectly until I was able to sync yesterday and it is now back to it sick state.  I have no idea why syncing would create such havoc and I am now back to the same state I was in Dec. 14. 
    What good is a smartphone if Apple isn't smart enough to push out a fix!!??
    I replaced my android because my contacts and calendar are my life and now I can neither.

    I am having the same problem. Did turning off iCloud work? Did you just turn everything off or did you actually delete the account off your iPod?

  • Why can't I reply to emails since ios5 update?

    Since I updated to ios 5 I can't reply to mail.  I can receive and send mail and type a reply but as I press send the app crashes and returns to the home screen.

    This may be a network issue in which case you can go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Other than that it may be an issue with the mail server, so I would try deleting the account from Mail and re-adding it. If neither works, you may have to do a restore.

  • Many problems since the update - help?

    Hi all,
    Let me start by saying that I am, for all intents and purposes, a huge Apple booster. I have a new 24" iMac. I have an Airport Extreme. I have an iBook G3 I use for travel (I'm a journalist) and recently handed down my old G3 iMac to my son after loading it up with RAM. I extoll Apple products because they are elegant and simple, and a pure pleasure to use.
    Unfortunately, this hasn't been my experience with Apple TV since the 2.0 update.
    My problems since the update include:
    1) My Apple TV regularly "hangs" when trying to connect to ATV content. About 50% of the time when I try to play a song or podcast or movie preview -- whatever -- instead of connecting to it, I'll get an "Accessing iTunes Store" message which, after about 30 seconds of the little spinning icon, will inevitably revert to "The iTunes Store is currently unavailable. Try again later." I have to "back out" of the submenu (e.g., "Movies" or "Podcasts" or "TV Shows"), and enter another, different submenu before it will connect. I've tried all combinations of Airport settings ( both 2.4 Ghz and 5Ghz N, mixed b/g/n), and many different channels, but this keeps on happening. I have troubleshot my network connection with my ISP, and have tested the integrity of the line at DSL Reports. The connection and line quality is fine. Connection strength: signal = 54; noise = 92. In other words, decent.
    2) When attempting to play HD Trailers, it is now hit and miss whether or not they will load. Instead of a blue progress bar, my screen goes black for about 15-20 seconds. (During this time, I cannot exit out of the action by pressing 'menu' on my Apple remote; it is effectively unresponsive.) After the 15 seconds or so are up, I get the following message: "Selected content is not available. Format is not recognized" -- or something close to this. After I exit, play an SD trailer, and then hit into the same trailer again, it will often (but not always) work.
    3) Album cover art flips often "stick" when turning, especially when playing songs with long, scrolling titles. (I spent a lot of time on the phone with an Apple TV Product Specialist and, after he replicated the issue, he passed on his findings to the Apple Engineering. It is, I was informed, not high on their list of priorities
    4) Unplugging and then replugging the ATV to reboot causes a small electrical spark. Needless to say, I don't tempt fate by doing this any more, and instead use the "-" and "menu" restart method.
    All in all, a very disappointing experience of late. Very un-Apple.
    By the way, connecting to YouTube videos and Flickr contacts ALWAYS works. No problems at all with any non-Apple site accessed through the ATV. So the problem lies with Apple.
    Is anyone else experiencing similar difficulties? I'm at my wit's end with this thing. Never thought I'd be saying that about an Apple product. But I want to try and solve it, so I'm asking for help. If nothing can be done, I'm going to ask Apple to replace it, or return it.
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

    That was a paraphrase. The exact words, I'm afraid, I didn't write down. I wish I had, though. It was truly a beautiful example of corporate bafflegab. Something like: "since this only affects the visual aspects of the unit and not its overall performance" -- I told the (very nice) product specialist that the Apple TV was pretty well ALL AND ONLY about visuals. (FWIW, he agreed.) Anyway...

  • My iPod Touch 4g will not stop crashing since iOS5 update?

    Ever since I updated my iPod Touch 4g with iOS5,  most of my apps, and even Safari, The App Store and Youtube, crash often, and it's becoming very annoying.  Before the update none of those crashed.My iPod Touch 4g is barely a month old and it crashes probably more than a 2g iPod. I want this to be fixed ASAP but how??

    - Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next, try restoring from backup
