"Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on message?

"Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on message? Help. This is also happening on my husband's phone. I have the 5C and he has the 5S. This all started about 4-5 weeks ago. The picture do however go through.

There have been many, many reports of this lately so I believe it's not anything you're doing.

Why do i keep getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on iMessage? All are sent to other iPhone/iPad users.

For a few months now, I've been getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures to other Apple devices (iPhones, iPads, Macs), despite the recipient receiving them. So, even though the pictures are going through, the "Message Send Failure" notice keeps showing up. I checked with other people who have Apple devices and they also encountered the same issue whenever they send pictures (usually send an email to make sure it was received). I thought when iOS 7.1.1 came out that it would fix this issue. Has anyone else encountered the same issue? Thanks!

I started getting the error on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.x) several weeks ago - if not a month ago. Today I finally decided to run through a wholesale sign-out/sign-in process on all my devices (iMac, MacBook, iPad 1, iPad 3 and iPhone5) and it worked!
I signed out of iMessage/Messages on all devices. I also deleted my iCloud accounts on all my devices (make sure you tell the software to keep local copies when you are prompted - relax, it all stays in the cloud, too) Then I signed back in to iMessage/Messages and then re-added iCloud accounts all around. I just sent a message with a photo attachment and did not get the "Not Delivered" message - yay!
(FYI - even though I received the error every time I sent a message with an image attachment, the message still went through - very, very happy, though to finally get rid of the message...)

Why do I get a conversion failure every time when I try to merge documents together???

Why do I get a conversion failure every time when I try to merge documents together???

Hi mdrhine,
I'm sorry that you've been unable to merge files. Let's see what we can figure out.
Are you unable to merge any files? How large are the files that you're trying to merge, and how many are you trying to merge at once?
If you're merging more than a few files, or those files are particularly large, ttry merging those files in smaller batches. If one or more files is causing the conversion failure, merging in smaller batches should help you isolate the problematic file or files.
I look forward to hearing back from you with some details about the files that you're trying to merge.
Best,
Sara

I get a conversion failure every time I upload a pdf to combine - any ideas?

I get a conversion failure every time I upload a pdf to combine - any ideas?

Hi sharon,
Have you tried combining any other PDFs apart from ones which fail to combine?
Are the PDF files complex or simple?
You might try using a different browser.

Apple Configurator - Consistently Inconsistent - Same failures every time

I use Apple Configurator every week, to deploy iPads in schools and colleges around the country. Lately, I have been consistently having the same issue...
I'm using any combination of MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini (no earlier than 2012) and OS X 10.9.5, 10.10, 10.10.1. and Apple Configurator 1.6 (445). the iPads are nearly always new and they are either iPad 2, 4 or Air, but not too often iPad 2 these days. I use a Lock n Charge trolley, a GoCabby or a Kensington Charge n Sync cabinet.
Simply trying to update the iOS version using Configurator, before turning on Supervised mode, installing apps, profiles, etc. and when I click prepare, with 16 iPads plugged in, it will fail on 8 of them the first time. Without doing anything other than clicking stop and prepare again, it will then fail on, say 5, of them. Then clicking stop and prepare again, it will work on 3 or the remaining 5, then eventually will finish them all. Having changed literally no setting and just stopping and starting again, it completes a few more, but never all of the connected iPads. This takes a serious amount of time for clients that are billed by the hour and it's ridiculously frustrating.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do?

Another issue that has now arisen, is that when turning on supervised mode, the supervision profile does not show up in settings. After I install an MDM profile, the supervision profile then shows up in settings.
Not only that, but some of the iPads, when being set up with Configurator, will give an error message saying 'cannot verify supervision state', even though the iPads are showing up in the supervised tab.
You can no longer download older versions of Apple Configurator from the App Store, only 1.7, which means you have to upgrade to Yosemite and purchase the update for the 'Server' app (if you're using it).
They say a bad workman blames his tools, but without an alternative to Apple Configurator...

How do I change the picture bubble that appears every time I send a message

Every time I send a text message on my ipad, a little bubble appears with a picture in it, how do I change that?

You can't remove the bubble. You can remove the picture. Launch the contacts app and locate your own contact information. Tap the edit button at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the the picture associated with your contact and tap remove photo or change photo or whatever you want to do ... From the pop up menu. Tap Done when you are finished.

How come every time I send a text it says Message failure

It just started happening a couple of days ago, every time I send a text message to people it says "message failed to deliver" and I have to resend the text.
What does this mean its driving me nuts !!
H E L P !!

Hi Nessaa95,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that sometimes when you send a message from your iPhone, you see an alert that the message failed to deliver. In this situation, I would recommend reading over and working through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article.

5s will send picture texts but i always get a "message send failure" text back

I have an iphone 5s, and every time I send a picture message to either another iphone or an android the pictures goes through. But then I get a "message send failure" text back. And when people send me pictures, they get a text that it didn't go through to me. But I did receive them. This has caused several repetitive messages to be sent back and forth.

It will all iPhone and adroids that I sent messages to. They all do go through but they all say "message send failure." And whenever anyone sends me a picture they get notified it didn't get delivered, but I did receive it.
Alfredo and I did a test picture message on 7/4/14 that worked fine, but then I tried sending a picture after I logged off the chat and it went back to doing the "message send failure" again.

FAX failure! Sending fax results in error every time.

I have been trying to use an Apple USB modem on my iMac (latest version). Every time I attempt to send a word processing document I get a failure message. The modem dials and connects to the remote computer and says it is sending the document but then it disconnects and reschedules another transmission.
Console gives the following errors:

Does anyone have an idea as to what is preventing the fax from working?

This is a problem on all Macs from what I can tell. I have had a Case open with Apple Support for over 2 months now regarding this issue and they are not helpful at all. I believe it is either a problem with the "efax" open source program that Apple uses or some hardware issue. I have many phone lines here and Apple USB Modem to Apple USB Modem for faxing works fine, but to our Fuji-Xerox machine here; Fax Protocol Error. So clearly in the Apple Utopia faxing is fine, so case closed!
It seems whenever there is a "fax protocol error", the fax has sent successfully, it's just that something happens prior to hang-up that causes this issue.
Here is my work around, which ignores "fax protocol errors". When "efax" (/usr/bin/efax) returns "0", this is success. "1" is something like line engaged, no answer, etc. (normal errors). "3" is "fax protocol error". Therefore as "root" in Terminal I did the following:
1. "mv /usr/bin/efax /usr/bin/efax.orig"
2. "vi /usr/bin/efax"
3. Enter the following (press "i" to insert text, <esc> to stop entering text):
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/efax.orig $@
RESULT=$?
if [ "$RESULT" = "3" ] ; then
RESULT=0
fi
exit $RESULT
4. Save and quit "vi" (enter ":wq")
5. "chmod a+rx /usr/bin/efax"
Good luck!

TS3899 Tried all the tips on line. Every time I try to send an e-mail, it gives me this message, "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed" Any help in how to resolve would be appreciated

I went through all the steps to try to resolve getting the message in a box every time i try to send an e-mail. What next ?
Message is " A copy has been placed in your
Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My internet works fine as I can send e-mails from my Yahoo account on my MAC no problem.
Address is fine etc.

How long has it been going on? I've had my yahoo mess up and if i wait a bit it resolves itself. Yahoo is doing something with their servers and it messes with your mail if your mail happens to be on one of those servers.

Well, first, why are you running such ancient versions of Firefox as 3.6? i would immediately update to Firefox 15.0.1 as Firefox 3.6.28 is no longer supported and is critically insecure.
As for the dreamweaver thing, I'm not sure this is a Firefox issue, so I'd check again after updating Firefox.

Every time I try to send an email, I get an error message which says "The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying" How can I fix this?

My email is not working properly, I can receive emails but I cannot send them.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

try to check the email id of the guy you are trying to send the email to as i had the same problem i had written yahoo.com when it was yahoo.in

Every time I send a text, it sends the same message twice

I have had my phone for about a week now and every time I send a text to someone it sends the message twice.
I have no idea why this is happening. What can I do to stop it from sending the message twice?

Hi samglow!
Let's take a look into this, we want your messages sent only once. Let me ask...are you using a 3rd party application for messaging, or the app that came with the phone? Are you receiving messages just once, or more than once? What's the software version of your device?
To troubleshoot, please remove the SIM from the device, and power off/on. Then, test again.
Thanks!
