I am having a hard time sending text messages and picture mail even thought I have good signal

I am having a hard time getting my phone to send text messages and pictures sometimes even thought I have a good signal. If someone could tell me if they have had this problem and how they resolved it I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

When I text anyone who don't use Apple devices I have to resend the message two or three times it goes through. I have an iPhone 5c running on iOS 8.0.2 if that helps figure anything out. Thank you.
SMS is a carrier function. If you're having trouble with sending them, you should start by contacting your carrier.
Best of luck.

    I'm trying to install a Citrix XenApp for work purposes and am having a hard time. The message "The installer has insufficient priveleges to this directory: C:\Program Files (x86) \Mozilla Firefox \Plugins \resource. The installation cannot continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator." I am using a Toshiba Satellite laptop and am the only user and administrator as well. I have read other Firefox support articles and google answers but nothing has resolved this issue. Please help! Be detailed and visual if possible

    There are no BIOS settings, because Macs don't have a BIOS. I don't use Parallels, but I assume it has simulated BIOS settings. You'd have to consult its documentation to find out how to change them.

    I know a lot of people with iphone 5 and have never heard them complain about top button always brake and screen that decides to pop off or the back of their case is bending.
    That sounds like a phone that has been dropped a numerous times.

  • IPhone 5 Glitch - Text Messages and E-mails

    So basically when I have any application open that uses sound, such as a game for example, if I turn down the volume within the application, when I exit the application the volume of my text messages and e-mails are set to the same level as whatever I set the volume to in the application that I was just using previously.
    For example, if I go into Temple Run and turn the volume almost all the way down to the lowest setting, when I am done playing the game if I receive a text message or e-mail I can barely hear the alert because the volume of those alerts will be set to the low volume from when I was playing Temple Run. I have to go back into Temple Run and turn the game volume all the way back up again to get text message an e-mail alert volumes back to normal.
    I thought maybe this was an issue with the new iOS 6, but I had a few friends test it on their 4 and 4s iPhones and they did not experience this glitch. So I think maybe it's only a glitch on the iPhone 5. Can someone with an iPhone 5 check to see if it happens to you too? If not, maybe I just got a defective phone.
    Thanks,
    Jesse

    I just updated my iPhone 4S to IOS 6 and I am now having the same problem. I play The Sims Freeplay, but keep that volume set at 2 or 3 bars, sometimes even on mute. When I left the game, my text tone was barely audible. I messed around with the volume settings for a while, but I couldn't get it louder. Then I finally went back into The Sims Freeplay, turned the volume up to about halfway, and then exited. What do you know? My text tone is now about as loud as it used to be. I went back and turned the game volume back down again to check, and that seems to be what it is basing the text tone volume off of. It is a bit ridiculous. I am really hoping that Apple fixes that bug very quickly, because I should not have to leave my games on blasting loud in order to hear my text messages or emails. Other people have been complaining about the low text tone (or none at all) on other forums, but yours is the only place I'd seen someone else discover the game volume as the way to fix it.

  • Saving text messages and pictures when resetting

    I want to reset my iPhone to factory default because one of my buddies jailbroke it and I hate the jailbroken version. It's slow and annoying. Is there a way for me to save all of my text messages and pictures, reset the phone to factory default, and then put all the texts and pictures back on?

    You can import the photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll as with any other digital camera and then transfer the photos to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process as with any other photos on your computer's hard drive that you want available on your iPhone for viewing.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3603
    The same does not apply to text messages. The only way to transfer text messages back to an iPhone restored with iTunes is to restore from the iPhone's backup, and you can't select which data that is included with the iPhone's backup that is transferred to the iPhone. It is all or none with the iPhone's backup.
    There are 3rd party utilities that provide for extracting messages from your iPhone's backup for access on your computer.

  • Cannot receive or make call and receive or send text messages in areas where there is a high wifi signal.

    Please help me. I just got my iphone 4 last february and it was working just fine. But recently, i am having problems with its phone features such as text messaging and call. Most of he times i have a full network signal yet i cannot receive or make a call, receive or send text messages. I have also observed that everytime i am in a wifi zone where its signal strenght is high, this problem always exists. There seems to be no problem with its other features...please help me anyone.

    Wi-Fi has nothing to do with making/receiving calls, or sending/receiving text messages... those features only work over the cellular network.
    Have you contacted the carrier to rule out network issues or swap out the SIM card to eliminate that as a possibility?
    What about Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?

  • Problem sending text messages and imessages

    Hi,
    I have been having some problems with my iphone 5 when sending and receiving text messages and imessages. When i go to send a text or imessage it will take a long time for the message to try to send through, then it comes up with message failure. I have full reception and internet connection and the phone is runing on the lastest ios7.1.2, everything is working in that respect. Sometimes it will freeze my whole inbox and i end up having to turn my phone off and on again to unfreeze it. It has also started taking a long time to receive messages, i will get a message and it will say that it was received 30mins ago when its only just shown up on my phone. I am also having problems deleting messages, as it freezes whenever i try to delete them.
    Any suggestions on what to do?

  • How do I sync both my iPhone together so they get text messages and calls? So if I have someone blocked on one phone my other will receive it

    I want to know how to sync my iPhone 4 and 4s together so I can share my messages and pictures. I want both phones to receive the same message calls and pictures. Is there a way and how?

    Sorry no way to receive calls and SMS text message on both phones, you would need to have the same number.
    You can have imessage go to both phones, by adding your apple id to imessage.
    You can use photo stream to share pictures between both devices.

  • I am having a problem with sending text messages to ONE contact

    We were texting just fine until Sunday night. We text several times a day.
    As of Monday a text will not go through to my daughters phone. I have done a system reset on my phone, I have cleared the system cache, I tried a different message app, cleared the app cache for the verizon message  app, I spent over an hour on the phone with Verizon tech supportthis morning talking to 3 or 4 different people.
    I removed her as a contact and deleted our message thread, restarted my phone and tried to send a text via direct dial--didn't work. I can not send a text to this number via my note 4 OR the verizon messaging app on my computer. She is on AT&T. She also spent time on the phone with her carrier going through a lot of steps to figure out if the problem was on her end. They say it is a problem on my end.
    I had done no system updates or added new apps between going to bed Sunday after our last message and waking up Monday not being able to text her.
    Any ideas ?

    Do you use any apps to block calls or texts from people or maybe have a caller ID app that also has it in their app. I would research that. As to me it seems an app on your phone is blocking you. Reason I say that is when you do a system restore on your phone the apps that were saved on your phone via the cloud or even in google playstore sometimes adds them back automatically when you load your account back on there. Here is just a suggestion to try and see if it is on Verizon end or the phone and apps itself. Make a new gmail account on the computer. Then reset your phone and clear cache out and use that gmail address on your phone instead of your current google account and see if you can then send a text. If you can then it is an app that is downloading that is blocking you. That is what it sounds like to me more than anything.

  • I am having problems making calls and sending text messages and now getting my iphone activated.

    I have a iPhone 4 and I had problems sending texts and making calls so I got a new one. I then gave my boyfriend my old iphone snd told him if he could get it to work he could have it. For some reason we are having problems getting it to activate. it wont let us make calles to verizon or anything on it. I do still have a warranty on the phone so would I be able to send it in and get a new one? or how does that work?

    Take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • Why does my 4S send text messages instead of imessages, even though it has sent that person imessages in the past?

    Why does my 4S suddenly switch to text messages when it has been sending to the same person as imessages?  I am connected to wifi and have no cell service where I am, so the text errors out.  Can I force it to send as an imessage?

    It's on.  We were sending imessages earlier today, then for some reason, my phone switched to text???

  • My iPhone 4S is preventing me from sending text messages and making or recieving phone calls, any suggestions on how to rid of this problem?

    My iPhone 4S will not recieve calls or text messages. It also prevents me from sending calls or text messages. I have had my SIM card double checked for verification on the phone listed and had several visits to my Bell provider. Any tips or suggestions?

    The iphone is designed to lock the screen when it is next to your face.
    If it is not locking when it is against your ear, then try basic troubleshooting: Restart,reset, restore
    Unless you have a case on it. If you have a case, then remove the case and see if that solves it.  Otherwise, try basic troubleshooting.
    If all fails then make an appointment at the local genius bar or call Apple support to arrange from a replacement.

  • How can i see my childs text messages and picture messages?

    im trying to find away to see all messages on my childs phone anybody know how?

        Hello brendagail,
    Thank you for posting in our community! I know the importance of knowing your options for viewing text message content. Our children have phones and communicate primarily via text.
    As SydneyK and budone advised, due to privacy laws, text message content is not available to view online. You are able to view text message times, dates, and the to/from numbers  by signing into your My Verizon Account using the steps that AZSALUKI provided. 
    Please let us know if you have further questions.
    Thanks,

  • Can't receive long (2part) text messages and Picture messages say they were sent be they aren't

    I can't receive long (2 part) text messages, I only receive the first part or the second part but never the entire text. Also my picture messaging is unpredictable, sometimes I can send them sometimes I can't, it always tells me they were sent but the receiver doesn't always get them. Do I have to change something in my settings to fix these problems?
    Thanks
    Amy

    My phone has also stopped receiving long texts, (2 part messages). It has now started to receive only part 2. If you find a way to resolve this i would like to know too. Thanks shan
