How do I send photos via Messages to an iPhone?

So, I'm using Messages in Mountain Lion.  I reach out to my friend using an iPhone 4.  We exchnage messages without an issue, as advertised.  I take a screen shot, it saves to my desktop.  I drag and drop to the Messages text entry line, the green, add item icon (green circle with a +) appears, and item is in entry line.  I press enter, its appears sent.  I ask my friend, if they recieved they said no.  I send myself the same image to my iphone.  I dont get it.  I change the file from a .png to a .jpg, nothing.  I can facetime to myself or my friend.  Yet and still cant send the image from the Messages app to an ios device.  Any ideas?

Hi,
I have been sending pics in iMessages to my iPhone from Messages on my Mac.
The pics have not been that large.
What size are you trying to Send ?

  • If i reset my iPhone 4 wi it erase all my contacts? How can i send photos via messaging?

    I have bought an iPhone 4 from a friend of mine and I can't send text with photos like I want to. I also try to download app's and games but t tells me I need to download ios updates but it won't allow me. Help I love my new phone but can't download anything.

    A reset has no affect on data.
    A restore from backup will put the device in the exact same state it was in when the backup was created.
    A restore as new will put the device in a fresh, out of the box state.
    Read the User's Guide to learn how to use the device then if you still have questions, you'll be able to clearly communicate what those problems are.
    FYI, SMS and MMS are carrier features, contact the carrier to troubleshoot.

  • CANNOT RECIEVE OR SEND PHOTOS VIA MESSAGING

    CANNOT RECEIVE OR SEND PHOTOS VIA MESSAGING

    What happens when you try? Is iMessage active? Do you have an SMS/MMS plan for non-iOS devices. If you go into Settings>Messages>is MMS turned on? What troubleshooting have you tried? Have you contacted your carrier? What did they say?

  • How do I send video (via gmail) from my iphone?  my laptop does it easily

    I receive video & pics from my friend's attphone (they don't have an iphone) - through my gmail on my iphone.
    I want to respond with a video, but don't know how.
    How do I send (from my gmail on my iphone) a video attachment to my friend?
    I can send them text & pics, no problem - but I'd like to send video clips that I have on my iphone as well.
    I can send video clips from the same gmail account on my computer. How do I do it on my iphone? Is the imap/smtp thing set up wrong? I have outgoing imap and incoming smtp. Is that wrong?
    Thanks for your help

    oh, thanks - that's really sad.
    You'd think they'd have the technology to make that possible.
    I wonder why they don't allow us to work with video.

  • How do I send photos via text message to non-iPhone users?

    I can send photos to only iPhone users, but not other phones. WHAT'S GOING ON?

    Do you have MMS messaging turned on? Does your plan allow for MMS messaging? Are you using T-Mobile in the US? T-Mo's US network is not fully compatible with the iPhone and MMS messaging may not work.

  • TS4268 I,am unable to send photos via messages but can receive them

    I,am unable to sent photos in messages  but can receive them. Help

    The SIM question/issue is separate from all of the others.  Your iPhone will not access the cellular newtwork until you install a new SIM.  The current SIM has been deactivated and is now useless.  Get a new SIM, install it (or have it installed), then have your carrier grant the iPhone access to the cellualr network.

  • How can i send photo/video from pc to iphone 5

    Using lightning cable to send a photo/video from pc to iphone 5, but the message said "cannot copy because the device is either turned off or the cable is disconnected/unplugged"
    I did send photo/video from iphone to pc successfully, but can i send back some of them in case of need?
    Thanks

    You might want to start with reading the iPhone user guide. Basic processes like synching are covered: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    In short, you must use iTunes to synch photos. You can also get more information in this knowledgeable article: iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support

    You may also want to try HP Photo Creations, which lets you transform your photos into a huge variety of printed items, from basic prints to photobooks, mugs, and posters. It's a free download at www.hp.com/go/hppc.
    For items in the Ship-to-Home section of the catalog, such as mugs and photobooks, you can click the Share button to get a link you can email to friends and family. They can then see what you saw onscreen, and even order their own copies.
