Cost to Send Image from Phone to Online Album

I was under the impression that it was supposed to be free to send photos I took with the camera on my cell phone to the online album.
So why was the bill about a $100 this month? I can't afford that. How am I supposed to get the photos off of my LG VX5500 for free?
I'm only a part of a family plan but with things like they are now I won't be going with verizon when I can get my own plan.

hi Elistariel -
With no texting plan, it is 25 cents per picture message. The LG VX5500 (same phone my daughter has) does not use a memory card, so you can try two different programs on your computer (both free) and see if either one will get the pics off and saved on your computer; from there you can upload to your online album without a per picture charge.
You can try Verizon's VCast media manager - download and install it on your computer, then use the USB cable to link the phone to the computer and transfer the pics with VCast.
Here's a link
A third party program called BitPim will also work, but it's more technical and does a lot more than just transfer your media. It can also brick your phone if you don't know what you are doing, so it's "use at your own risk", as Verizon won't cover any losses due to using BitPim. It does work though--I have used it, very cautiously!

  • HT201401 i have been able to send photos from phone to email until recently,why not now?

    Why can I not send photos from phone to an email address? I could until recently.

    I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
    Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again.

  • Sending files from phone using bluetooth.

    How can I send files from phone (Nokia E61) to MacBook using bluetooth?
    There are the steps that I'm doing:
    1-Open bluetooth on my phone and Mac.
    2-select files on my phone.
    3-select send via bluetooth.
    4-select my Mac form bluetooth devices menu.
    5-click send.
    6-Connecting....
    7-Sending failed.
    I believe there is something that I have to do on my Mac to accept these files.
    BTW, I can browse my phone from Mac, but it's much easier to send files from phone to laptop.

  • How to send pics from phone to laptop

    Ive got the iphone 4s and am trying to send pics from the phone to the laptop but all itunes seems to want to do is to send pics and music from the laptop to the phone. This was so much easier with my HTC so it shouldnt  be this hard with an iphone surely.

    When you connect you Iphone to your computer, if you are using Windows, Camera and Picture Wizard (or just use My Computer and copy and paste the pictuers) you can use to import photos. If using you MAC you can use Image Capture and import the photos  That is what I do for backup up all my photos and videos.
    Wirelessly, I use PhotoSync app. I think its a $1.99 but I love it. It can sync photos wirelessly to a MAC or Windows, but also supports Supports direct upload via Wi-Fi and 3G/LTE to your favorite web services - Dropbox, Google+/Picasa, Facebook, SmugMug, Flickr, Box, Zenfolio, (S)FTP, WebDAV & iDisk. It can also send to other iOS devices as I do this to send pics directly to my IPAD or other peoples iOS.

  • Can't send pix from phone ANYWHERE .. Arrgh

    Trying to send pix we took from LG phone to either the online album at Verizon or to another phone and keep getting an "invalid address" response from the phone whichever way they are sent.
    We have text messaging blocked on the account - do we have to get it unblocked in order to send pictures to ourselves/the Verizon album?

    Yes, in order to send a picture message or a normal text message the block will have to be removed from the account. If you choose to remove the block sending a message will occur a charge if you don't add a text package to your account. To send a text message is .20 and a picture is .25 cents without a text message package added to your account.. Hope you find that information helpful!

  • Cannot send files from phone to Satellite L755-16z using BT

    Hi, experts :)
    I'm gonna get straight to the point !
    I've got a toshiba satallite L755-16z since a month or so (New, with windows 7 64-bit)
    and its is known that it has BT and I guess its 3.0
    So I tried to connect the bluetooth with my phone & it paired just fine !
    but when I try to send files from and to my phone, it says (connecting) but doesn't manage to send it in the end. furthermore, this problem isn't only with my phone as I've tried sending and recieving to & from another phone, but still same problem !
    HOWEVER, I tried to turn the BT adapter off (right click on bluetooth Icon in notification area then turn adapter off), then starting the (bluetooth monitor) application, and sending files & IT WORKS !!
    But this happens only for one time right after restarting bluetooth, so everytime I have to send files, I have to turn BT off then turn it on ?!!!
    This is kind of Unacceptable !
    I tried Toshiba Bluetooth Stack, and it had the same problem. Also, I didn't like the way it worked (style and everything) ... so I uninstalled it & returned to the original BT version in pc.
    I've searched for answers with no luck & now I'm desperate for the answer !
    Plz anyone who knows how to solve this issue, help me Plz ??!
    If my email is needed : [[email protected]]

    ok I tried to turn it off with fn + f8 ... wlan turns off with it too, that's natural, I know :)
    then I turned it on & I recieved a file from phone just fine ... that only worked ONE time !
    after that, sending/recieving files won't work ... on my phone it says ( cannot connect ) .... same thing when I restart bt monitor manually !!
    Also, I have tried going to ( C:\Program Files (x86)\TOSHIBA\Bluetooth Monitor ) folder
    there are other bt monitors like (btmon2) and (btmon64) but both of them are have same problem but has more time of activity !
    the problem itself isn't that its on or off ...
    it is on and it appears in the notification area ... but only works for only a short period of time ...
    or for (btmon2) I can say it works right after starting it ... then works for a while when its active (sending files or recieving files) ... but after a while with no activity (no sending/recieving) It Stops Working :(
    How can I fix the problem ???
    Mr. Tonny ? Anyone ??

  • Sending images from lightroom 5 to elements 12 for panorama.

    Hello. I have elements 12 and lightroom 5 installed. I go to send 5 images from lightroom to send to elements to do the pano. When I select the 5 images I want I click go to edit and then select merge in panorama. It then opens up elements 12 but after waiting for some time the images font show up. It used to work but now it don't. In lightroom 5 I have it set in the presences right so my external editor is elements 12. After a while I looked in my pictures section in windows and lo and behold all my images that I have sent to elements to do psn os with are in pictures section as raw files. So lightroom is sending them but not to my external editor.
    Can someone please help me this is very frustrating.
    thanks for any help you can offer me.

    Which version of Lightroom 5 do you have?
    Which version of camera raw are you using in photoshop elements 12?
    In Lightroom what are the preferences at the top of the External Editing tab set to?
    I realize that yours may be different, because you don't have photoshop installed, but here even though photoshop cc 2014 is on this machine, as long as i have pse 12 and not cc 2014 open before
    choosing Photo>Edit in>Merge to Panorama in Photoshop, it does work for pse 12 with nikon nef files (camera raw files), but it uses the preferences at the top of the external editing tab instead of the ones below.
    So if the Bit Depth is not set to to 8 bits/channel then photomerge doesn't work.

    yeah! i got the related topic at http://www.theserverside.com/tt/articles/article.tss?l=HttpClient_FileUpload. please look it, i am reading it right now and expecting to be reliable for me.
    well what i got, when request made by html code(stated above) then all the form fields and file data mixed as binary data and available in HttpServletRequest.getinputstream. and at servlet side we have to use a mutipart parser of DiskFileItemFactory class that automatically parse the file data and return a FileItem object cotaing the actual file data,right?.You can also setup the MultipartFilter in your environment and don't >care about it further. Uploaded files will be available as request attributes in the servlet.is the multipartfilter class file available in jar files(that u suggested to add in yours article) so that i can use it directly? one more thing the import org.apache.commons.httpclient package is not available in these jar files, so where can got it from?
    one mere question..
    i looked somewhere that when we request for a file from webserver using web browser then there is a server that process our request and after retrieving that file from database it sends back as response.
    now i confused that, wheather these webservers are like apache tomcat, IBM's webspher etc those processes these request or there is a unique server that always turned on and process all the request?
    because, suppose in an orgnisation made it's website using its own server then, in fact, all the time it will not turned on its server or yes it will? and a user can make a search for kind of information about this orgnisation at any time.
    hopes, you will have understand my quary, then please let me know the actual process
    thanks

  • Cannot send file from phone

    I have just moved over from my Nokia 6630 to an N70. Somewhere in the pairing process while setting up the new phone I have lost the ability to send files from either phone to the Mac via bluetooth.
    Everything else works fine. I can iSync and can send files from the Mac to both phones.
    I have deleted and re-paired without success.

    You ARE still on 10.4.3, right? Myself and many others had an identical problem, me with my Nokia 6670, after upgrading to 10.4.4. Ended up downgrading to 10.4.3. All working again.
    Looking at the list of supported phones on the Apple site, though, the N70 isn't there.
    See: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html

  • When I try to send email from phone I get message net sign in failed and the messages won't send

    Why do I get the message net sign in failed when I try to send email from my phone? This just started about a week ago and I am unable to send email.

        Hello yinz!
    Let's get those emails sending! When you get the message, does the device prompt you to sign in to your email? If so, does it give you a different error message? The same? What type of email is it? Are you able to send/receive if using the PC? One option is to uninstall, then reinstall the email account from your device. Please give that a try and keep me posted on the results.
    Thanks so much,

  • HT1430 Sending Email from phone

    I am able to send mail from my iPhone to certain email accounts, but whenever I try and send an email from my phone to an sbcglobal.net email account, it comes back undeliverable? can anyone help me fix this problem?

    Just like anything that uses data it depends on what you are sending and recieving...   If you you are sending a 50mb file them you know that you are at least using half a gig to send that file, each email is deturmained by its contents.  If you are sending just a text email it normally only users a few kb unless the email is a log message.

  • Send Images from CVS-1450 to host

    How is the better way to retrieve the acquired images from CVS when I realize an host application?
    Is the VI-Server the better solution?
    Anyone has some examples?
    Thanks

    Have a look at the following example on www.ni.com :
    Compress IMAQ Images to JPEG Streams for Faster Transfer
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.DISPLAY_EPD4?p_guid=B45EACE3E88

    e=External
    CVS side :
    You acquire the images, compress the images, then use a TCP server in order
    to send images to the host.
    Host side:
    Use a TCP client to retrieve the images.
