I cannot recieve pics on my iphone

I am not receiving pics or multimedia text that people are sending me, I have unlimited text and calling and 2 gig of data I think. Do i not have something turned on properly.

Ada67, let's get your picture messaging working! As soupcannon suggested, you'll need to make sure MMS messaging is turned on in Settings, then Messaging. If this is already turned on, verify you are able to send picture messages. Try sending yourself one and see if you receive any errors. Dial *228 option 2 and reboot your phone. If no change, reset your network settings by going to Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings.
Let me know if you need further assistance.

Cincinnati Bell phones cannot recieve pic messages from me

How come I can send pic messages to other carriers except for Cincinnati Bell? I can recieve pics from them, but they can't recieve them from me. According to my phone, the pic sends, but they never recieve it. I thought it might have been because of the phones, I only had a EnV Touch and was sending to CB smartphones. But now I have a droid and it still doesn't work. But my bf had a droid and it would work from his phone. I am very confused.

You can try lowering the resolution on your camera. Snap a new picture then send that new picture. You mentioned your boyfriend's phone seemed to work. Is it currently working? If 1 person can send to that Cincinnati Bell number and you can't, it may be something with your resolution.
Let us know if that fixes your issue.

Workaround for sending/recieving pics from non iPhone phones?

So, it seems that no one who tested the iPhone thought that sending pictures back and forth to other phones was a very important feature, as we're seeing that there's no way to send a pic via SMS.
So, anyone know how I can send pictures to my GF on her Verizon phone? Or, how she can send pictures to me? (i.e. can I email to some address at verizon that translates it to an SMS, and/or can she SMS a picture to my email?)
Also, it would be good for Apple to add a preference for taking lower-resolution pictures (or some feature that auto-downsizes them when sent via email or (hopefully soon) SMS) so that those of us who send pics all day don't fill up the memories of ppl whose phones don't have 8GB of storage.
Lastly, how exactly do I upload a picture to a web site? I was trying to upload one to my LiveJournal and the "choose image" button was greyed out in Safari on my iPhone.
After one day, I am loving the phone, but I think a lot more needs to be done on the preferences end.

In the mean time, your girl friend needs to send
her
photos to your email address instead of your phone
and you can see them in your inbox. You should be
able to send her photos by sending the photo to
(her
#)@vtext.com. Example [email protected]
that doesn't work for me. Sent myself an "email"
with photo attached last night to
[email protected] and it still has not arrived,
not even as a blank email stripping out the
attachment. That is a BIG downfall, to not even
receive them
would not work sending it to an iPhone, as the data package doesn't include a @mms.att.net address. (meaning there's no option to email [email protected])
you can however send any email to [email protected] with pictures attached. (meaning you send the email to an email address synced to the iPhone and use mail to open it)
to send messages to others, (verizon specifically) you'd send an email using mail with image attached to [email protected]

Moved from iphone4s to samsung4s and now cannot recieve any email from iphone users????

I had to change my cel phone for work, IPhone4 to Samsung 4, Telus to Bell.
Now I cannot receive any test messages from ANY IPhone user. Their phone defaults to IM, not text.
I have de-registered my phone, turned off IM, but still no messages. Help

I have read all of these posts after switching from iPhone to galaxy s4 and this is the only process that I found to work:
Have iPhone user send you a text, it will send as imessage and you will not receive it. Have that user then long press the message text (blue text) and an option will pop up to send as sms text. Select it and it will send to your phone. The iPhone user has to do the send as sms text 3-4 times consecutively then it will learn to send that way by default. Has worked for 5 straight iPhone contacts so far.

Recieving Pics from non-iPhone users

How can a Razr user send me a pic without using email, since razr has no email?!

Larry Gualano,
Most MMS providers offer MMS to email capability. AT&T does for example.
If you put the email address instead of the telephone number in the to field, it will send it to email.
Hope this helps,

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Cannot sync pics from iPhone

Hello,
I have a Macbook pro and an iPhone.
I take pics on my iPhone that I want to see on my Mac.
This has been a nightmare! I do not necessarily have an internet connection to sync using iCloud or Photostream. I don't care for photostream.
I cannot find the iPhone icon on my Mac. All I want to do is open the iPhone icon on my mac and transfer the pics.
This is basic functionality I could have done with a $10 phone with an SD card.
What is this!!?
I hope Apple is reading these boards and take note!!

Can you access the images on the phone with Image Capture (in the Applications Folder) ?

Switched ot andriod now cannot recieve text from iphones users what should i do

i cannot recieve test from iphone users it still tries to send as a imessage from there phone even tho i no longer have iphone

The problem may be that on the other users phones if your contact is associated with an email address that could have been used for iMessage, that that is what it's trying to send to.
If that's not the case I'm not exactly sure. They may also try erasing your contact and putting it back in their phone. That way it would be a new contact unassociated with an iPhone.
Other then that, you may cosult some Android forums...

HT201302 I have successfully downloaded my pics from my iphone to my mac, and they show having been downloaded, but I cannot view them.

So I synched and downloaded all my pics from my iphone to my mac, and now for whatever reason I cannot actually see them. I go into iphoto, itunes and cannot access them. I see them in itunes and yet do not have th option to view. Any ideas...?

You can't open iPod touch, iPad and iPhone apps on the Mac. They use different operating systems that need different applications, so it's not possible to use your iPhone apps.
Instead, you have to look for other applications in the Mac App Store or the Internet, because you can install applications from wherever you want

Itunes cannot read the contents of Iphone after updating to 2.1

Hi!
I have the original Iphone and I decided tonight to upgrade to the 2.1. At the end of the process, when it was restoring my iphone contents (pics, contacts etc.), an error came up "ITunes cannot read the contents of the Iphone" and it is telling me to restore to factory settings? My phone now is updated with all the new stuff but in Itunes it is not reading my Iphone. I am trying to make a ringtone from Itunes and I can't do it because of this problem.
Please help!

Hi,
I've the same problem too.
I had made iPhone sync on my PC in the past. But my HDD went in trouble and I had to buy another and reinstall Windows, so I lost my iTunes library.
Having no sync was ok, since I was comfortable with the photos, applications and music in my iPhone.
But yesterday my iPhone went out of disk space, and my problem started. I then needed to sync. I tried to extract my paid applications from iPhone using "transfer purchases from my iPhone". Unsuccessful, since it did not copy every application. I've tried to download the applications again, but iTunes say I need to pay for them. And now, after some unsuccessful purchase transfers and backups, iTunes says "iTunes cannot read the contents of iPhone", so I think I'm forced to restore the original settings.
What should I do?
I don't want to pay again for the applications I already purchased.
I don't want to loose my application data.
I don't care about my music, photos and videos, cause I can get them elsewhere anyway.
Is there a way to save my iPhone, applications and data?
Thanks
