IMessage not sending/receiving pictures (OSX 10.8.2)

Hey guys,
I've been fiddeling around with iMessage for quite some time now and I'm just not able to get my MacBook Pro to load images a friend is sending me via iMessage. Weirdly I get the pictures in iMessage on my Server (OSX Server 10.8.2) and my other devices.
Any ideas?
iMessage is always telling me that I get a 'Vendor request fail'.

Hi there,
someone already found any solution?

Imessages not sending/ receiving. All texts made to other iphone users produce an error message where it shows as it was unable to deliver, however, the messages go through, but error still comes up after each imessage sent. this does this for each text

I have the Iphone 5S. Over the last few days, I continually get mail delivery errors when imessages are sent to any contacts who have iphones. I have spoken to my friends/ family who are also on the receiving/ sending end of my messages. They also say that they are receiving an error/ mail delivery error when they send imessages to my phone. Text messages are working fine (with other phones that are not iphones) and no delivery errors come up. However, it is just with me sending or receiving imessages. I have gone in to settings> messages> send & receive and all my information is right. I have also attempted to cut the phone off and back on (hard reset as well) and this has not fixed the problem. I then explored to see if my software was out of date, however, i have the most up to date software for the iphone 5 S. Does anyone know of a way to fix this problem, as it is annoying to both me and anyone else who has an iphone that sends me a text/ imessage as it will *alert* that there was a delivery failure.
Please help!!

There could be a problem with iMessage, although usually when there is an outage these boards are flooded with problems. It could be a very isolated issue, and if just started all of a sudden, it might be something at Apple.
Although it is annoying, I would just wait it out a few days and see if it goes away on its own.

IMessage not sending, receiving or synching with iOS 6 devices

Yesterday iMessage on Mac (runing ML 10.8.2) stopped being able to send, received and synch. Seems to have coincided with changing of passwords, which I believe all devices (iMac, iPhone and iPad) are using the same password. Has anyone has a similar experience where Messages was working but then stopped. It is still working on iPhone but is not updating the iPad or iMac. Similary, when I send a Message on the iPad neither the iPhone nor the iMac are updated.

iMessage has stopped on my iMac - ML OS has played up twice in the past week. Reboot etc doesnt solve it. It works fine on iPhone 5 and iPad 2 but will not open on iMac. Error message 994 bad access etc and keeps quitting and message box say it is inactive. When I got to preferences it Quits! All messages have disappeared aswell. Any ideas? It will cost me £35 to call apple to get the answer( as the iMac is outta warranty but only 4 years old). Help?

Problems with sending/receiving picture messages

Does anyone know how to sort problems with sending/receiving picture messages on the iphone 4S? I've gone through all the re-setting etc at the place I bought it and it still doesn't work!! Spoken to 02 and they said it's an issue with Apple software?? Any help appreciated.

Can you send/receive SMS's? If so, and you can't send/receive MMS's, and MMS is turned on in Settings, 99.9% of the time the problem is on your carrier's end...most likely MMS is not provisioned properly on your account, regardless of what your carrier is telling you. Call back & have them remove MMS from your account & then re-provision your account for MMS.

Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?

Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS? this in the works?

"Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?"
Apple chose not to offer this as a feature of iphone. E-mail can accomplish the same thing.
"is in the works?"
This has been asked and answered countless times. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
Apple has announced that MMS will be included in the 3.0 software due out this summer. Before you ask, all that has been announced is in this link:

Xperia Z1 can not send/receive MMS after Lollipop update

Xperia Z1 can not send/receive MMS after Lollipop update, is anyone else having this issue. Any ideas on what I can do to restore MMS?

MMS need a data plan, there are certain carriers/networks that allow MMS to be sent w/o a data plan to their branded/locked phones, you will have to contact your carrier/network regarding this.
Is your phone braded or was it branded? did you flashed lollipop ?

IPhones Can't send/receive pictures from other phone like Galaxy

I Can't send/receive pictures from/to my iphone from other phones like Galaxy, but I can send and receive text messages. I appreciate if someone can help me.

Is MMS enabled in your mobile phone tariff (check with your network provider) and is your phone configured with the correct MMS settings for your tariff?

My iphone will not send a picture message?

My iphone will not send a picture message.

Had the same prob w/ pics not sending. Spent hours on phone and finally got problem solved. Hopefully this will help other people experiencing this problem.
First, go Settings, then select Phone. Under "My number" it should say your current number. If it doesn't (as it didn't in my case) call sprint (dial *2 on your phone). Tell the sprint agent you would like your Name assigned to your number.
In my case, I had been added to an existing family plan. I was assigned a random new cell phone number, but then later changed it to my old existing phone number from AT&T. So if you are like me and brought your old cell phone number with you when you switched to Sprint, then this may be the issue.
When I was experiencing the problem with my pictures not sending, the wrong phone number was showing as my number on the phone (even though people could call and text me using my current number).

Why won't iMessage send/receive PICTURES through my iPad, iPhone, and MacPro on Wifi?

For the last 2 weeks or so, I haven't been able to send/receive images through the iMessage application on either of my iPad, iPhone 4S, or MacPro. I have tried different Wi-fi connections, I have deleted/re-added email addresses to which I can be reached at/send messages and tried sending different pictures...all unsuccessfully. I try sending them, they say "Delivered" for a moment and then switch to saying "Not Delivered" (in red). I have tried to confirm with other people if they receive the pictures I send, regardless of me seeing the "Not delivered" message, but they say that they didn't receive anything. I have only been able to send pictures once in the last 2 weeks. Can anyone help me with this?

IMessage cannot send out pictures. Please help?

Hello, I am unable to send out pictures on iMessage - texts are fine.
It simply shows the red error icon & states Not Delivered.
Only pictures cannot be delivered, texts are completely unaffected. Definitely not a network issue.
Is anyone facing this same problem???

I was having the same problem on my iPhone 4S and my iPad. I found that if the person i was trying to send them too had not done the latest update then I would get the "Not Delivered" message. So I updated said persons phone and now I have no problem sending and they no longer have a problem receiving them.. Hope this helps out! :)

Can't group text or send/receive picture messages! Please Help!

Hell Everyone,
so I just recently switched from my Iphone back to my blackberry for simplicity/practical reasons...I couldn't deal with the iphone anymore. In doing so, I came across a problem. I am not able to send group texts or send/receive mms. Everytime I try to do so, the text has a red 'X' next to it showing that it didn't go through. I am currently with ATT and have tried calling them to resolve it but no one knows.
here are some of the steps I took to resolve it
1. Resetted to Factory Settings - Did not work
2. Made sure all the settings in my text message options is selected properly - Did not work
3. Deactivated iCloud/iMessage on my previous iPhone - Did not work
4. Called ATT and had them make sure BB Data plan was on my plan, and it was - Did not work
Can someone please help?
Thank you,
Pogos

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should re-contact your mobile service provider for formal support...be sure to request their dedicated BB support group. MMS is a specific service level that must be properly enabled on BBs in order to function. Often, the first support group you reach will not understand the proper method for configuring this on BB...but their dedicated BB support group will.
Good luck!

Messages Won't Send/Receive Pictures Until I ...

Messages on my Mac will not send or receive pictures. After much troubleshooting I tried turning off Little Snitch and now all is well, almost.
I have 2 rules set in Little snitch to block connections from IMTransferAgent.xpc to domains amazonaws.com and windows.net. When I turn off blocking the connection to windows.net it allows the pictures to come & go.
This remiinds me of the billboard I saw a while back where John Wayne is saying "Will someone please explain to me why the h-ll I have to press 1 for English?" So for me it's, "Will someone please explain to me why the h-ll I have to allow a connection to windows.net to send a picture from my Mac to my iPhone?"

Hi,
Just because the server name appears to have .windows in the title does not mean it is a Microsoft server.
On the other hand don 't ask me why Apple named one of their servers with "windows" in the name.
I have the full name as mschi000007.blob.core.windows.net
The Network Utility and Whois tab is not particularly helpful in saying more.
