Is anyone having issues sending and receiving downloads with messages?

I downloaded messages. But I'm having troubles sending and receiving downloads from others.
My friend has messages as well and we can send small files, like mp3. But when I tried to send him a movie that's 500mb it says that the file is too big.
When I get incoming files to download (doesn't matter if the file is small or large), I click it and my aim automatically logs me off and then back on. So I can't even accept incoming downloads. Anyone have any fixes?

Hi,
I have one other thread where the person says there Login to AIM gets booted off when they try to accept Files in Messages beta.
Personally I have one Jabber Buddy who I cannot get Files from but they can send me AIM File Transfers.
I need to test with other Jabber Buddies to check this further myself.  However I am not booted Off line.
I have sent Picture files in line and as free standing File transfers over AIM before, the largest probably being about 50Mb at a max.
I certainly have not sent a movie that big (I have sent smaller ones)
I have not come across a Limit before.
What do you see if you have the File Transfer window Open as well ?
This tends to show the sideways barbershop pole and a second downward arrow to start the download from there.
Mine fails when I click the arrow in the File Transfer window and until then it says Waiting.
The other thread has also tried Auto Accept with no luck.
At present I have not answers to this.
We have not tried Zipped files in the other thread.

  • I am having issues sending and receiving group texts on my iphone 5c

    I am having issues sending and receiving group texts on iphone 5c.  I may get texts only from the sender or a few of the recipients, but not all.   I spoken to Apple.  They are working on the problem but it has been almost two months + and the problem seems to be getting worse.  Any one have this issue?

        ajspurr, sorry to hear that you're still having some troubles here, but we want to figure this out. If you have already cleared the application cache and data and it's still giving you an issue, we may want to reset the device. By resetting the device we can ensure there are no underlying software issues. If you have the device backed up you can take a look here to see how to reset the device http://vz.to/1ucTCmE. Give that a try and keep us posted.

  • My messages are not going through or coming in from other iOS devices.  Having to send and receive in SMS.  What is up?

    My messages are not going through or coming in from other iOS devices.  Having to send and receive in SMS.  What is up?  Anyone else having these issues?

    There's an article that Apple has acknowledged this issue. They recommend turning off imessages, reset all settings and then reactivate imessages.
    If that doesn't work, you may just have to wait until they release an update, which should be pretty soon.

    Check Settings>Messages>MMS Messaging and make sure it's set to on. Contact Redpocket and make sure your account is provisioned correctly. However, if Redpocket is not a supported carrier, it is possible that not all functions of the iPhone will work or work as expected.

  • Having issues sending Yahoo/att mail with one account

    Since upgrading to OS Mountain Lion, we have all sorts of issues.  This weeks challenge seems to be that my one (and main) e-mail account through Yahoo/att will receive in batches, but not send at all.  I have another business e-mail account and it is sending and receiving fine.  Mail prompts me for my password over-and-over again.  Obviously both accounts settings are identical except for username and password.  Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

        Hello internettim2,
    Help is just a posting away! Let's get your picture messaging working to other devices on your account. Are you having any issues with texts? Also, are these pictures that you took on the device? Can I assume that you are using the original text messaging app on all of the phones? If so then please turn off iMessage on the iPhones and test the service. Let us know the results so we can proceed.
    Thank you…

  • Can 2 people in different locations at the same time import, access, send, and receive the same messages from the same email account

    I import messages into Thunderbird. I send and receive emails. One of the things I like about Thunderbird is that I can insert (image, link, etc) right where I want to, and I can Attach. But not just a simple attach file. No, I can also click Attach and choose Webpage. A lot of web-based emails are plain, simple, no frills - Attach file and that's it.
    So I need to have my client be able to do the same thing I do when sending out emails, Namely sending out emails with an Electronic Press Kit (EPK) attached - which is to say, a webpage (not a pdf in our case). So, I need her to download, install, and use Thunderbird.
    Here's the problem and my question. She needs to access, send, and receive from my email account. That would be easy if it was simple attach files - she could just login on the web, go to squirrel mail and bang it out.. Here it is: She needs to be able to import the messages to be able to reply to some messages - she needs access to what I have access to. She needs to use Thunderbird so she can take advantage of the features like insert image with link or attaching a webpage. My question is how will this affect my use? Can 2 people simultaneously and from different locations access and use the same email account or is it a case where her importing the emails would cut me off..Is it an either or thing? Basically, can her and I both import the emails or can they only be imported to one location at a time. Because every time someone sends me an email i get it right there on my Thunderbird application..it's imported to my Thunderbird..I want her and I to be able to do that without affecting each other. I don't want her to start importing to her desktop and then I can no longer import. If she says "point those messages to my computer what will happen to my ability to access them on my computer in the same manner I am currently?

    I think there is a contradiction in your requirements. You want two people to share an account and you don't want either to interfere with the other.
    The short and simple answer is to use IMAP to connect to the mail server. If your current email provider doesn't offer IMAP, find another that does. This is old technology already and it's disgraceful that some email providers haven't yet put it in place.
    IMAP means that your messages are stored on the server and both of you will see exactly the same set of messages. And therein lies the contradiction; you will both see changes made by the other so you are inherently interfering with one another.
    Caveats: some providers may not permit you both to access the account concurrently, and even if they do, things may become interesting if you both choose to work on the same message simultaneously.
    Note that all of this is about email servers and protocols; your choice of Thunderbird as your email client has little bearing on the situation.

  • BizTalkServer 2010 SFTP Adapter from CodePlex - Configuring send and receive locations with SSH public and private keys

    Hi there,
    I am looking for step by step instrcutions on how to configure SFTP Codeplex adapter for both receive and send ports.
    Out business partner with whom we push/poll the files from wants us to use SSH encryption/decryption etc.
    Just wondering if the following functionality is supported in Codeplex SFTP adatper without having to write any code.
    Appreciate if there is manaul to do this for SFTP. BTW I do have all the our public and private keys and business partners Public key for configuring.
    For Send port: 1. we would need to encrypt the file with our business partners public key
                          2. sign the file with our private key.
                          3. Send the file through to SSH client which eventually transfers to Remote server.
    Receive port:   1. Connect to SSH Server with SSH-2 key and receive the file
                          2. Verify the file's digital signature agaisnt the Business partners PGP public key
                          3. Decrypt the file using our PGP Public key
    Thanks in advance

    Yes it is supported.
    You can find its documentation in this link 
    You can find section X.509 Certificate Identity Keys
    You can set public and private key in property SSH Identity thumbprint  of send and receive port
    I prefer to test it using client tool like
    FileZilla or WinSCP then test it using sftp adapter

  • I have 2 emails accounts one sends and receives fine with a POP account the other IMAP and I'm buggered if i know how to change it or to even check the answer from this question.  OMG is there a computer buddy who can help this idiot pleeeeease

    Firstly I apologise for my dumness when it comes to computers. 
    We have a new imac and i have tried to set up our emails.  One is setup up under POP (and is fine) and the other under IMAP, its the later that doesnt send or receive.  What do I need to do to change the setup.  I go into 'account' and where to from there??

    You can access, usually under the Apple (icon) menu in the main desktop
    window, note item with name "About this Mac" & click on that, to see more
    information about your computer, its OS X version, and other. The system
    version and build model are there. Do not post a serial number.
    If you are setting up Mail in a Mavericks OS X 10.9.x system, there often
    is access to information in the Help viewer from the main menu bar, or
    in an open mail application. If you have a Gmail or other account, that
    info is often on their home page where setup and help are located.
    The settings of each email account may vary according to their provider;
    so you would have to change your computer to accept them. An older
    link to a general look at that issue, change IMAP to POP, is covered here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16770816#16770816
    While that may not answer your question, you could use the info in
    your Mac OS X system Help viewer and use its search; or maybe
    a Spotlight search to see an answer online.
    You have to learn some basic things in order to actually use these...
    and it helps to expand that so you won't have to pay for tech service
    on things you can do yourself in a few minutes, beyond easy stuff.
    Of course, you're hearing this from a guy with no ISP email, ever.
    So mine are web-mail only; & I never save email to a computer.
    PS: If you have a new Mac with an AppleCare plan, you may be able
    contact Support for help. Ask someone (for 90 days, or up to 3 years
    if the Plan was extended) there at AppleCare, for their guidance.

    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Mail sender and subject mismatch with message content

    I have just started to find a few messages here and there that have a sender and subject which does not match the message content. The frequency of this behavior seems to be increasing. The senders are people I do get mail from and the message content looks like something I would receive from another recognized sender but they don't match. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Never mind. A little more searching solved the problem.

  • For those new to mail with issues sending and receiving mail

    I was surprised that I did not see anyone referring to this amazing and invaluable tool, the Mail Setup Assistant:
    http://www.apple.com/support/macosx/mailassistant/
    This tool get's me through troubleshooting sessions more than anything else. Most problems are due to settings when it comes to Mail. Half the time issues with sending emails is just due to SMTP settings, sometimes you do not need to have Authentication for outgoing mail. Sometimes your password is just incorrect. Use Mail Setup Assistant it is pretty **** accurate I use it on a daily basis.
    Sometimes the settings are perfect and sometimes you just have to erase mail completely by doing:
    ~/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist pull.
    ~ refers to your home folder!
    Hope this helps!

    It is a very good idea, however many of us do not live in the USA, so cannot yet take advantage of this tool.
    Pity!
