My 8130 cant send or recieve pix messages.

Do I have to download software to allow my phone to send and recieve picture messages? I cant get a straight answer from the girl at the store and I havent recieved anything from Blackberry but I was told when I bought the phone back in June that it would be capable of the option soon

Are you provisioned by AT&T to use MMS?
Do you have MMS turn on in message settings?
Lastly contact AT&T as messaging is a carrier feature.

  • After i updated to ios6 i cant send or recieve picture messages?! help please

    I recently updated to IOS6 and now i cant send or recieve picture messages unless im using imessage. But then when i do use imessage it send messages as my email not as my phone number....what is going on?!

    From the 2nd link below.
    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
        1.    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
        2.    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
        3.    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
        4.    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
        5.    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
        6.    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
        7.    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • Cant send or recieve sms messages ?

    Not able to send or recieve messages on my iphone ? Any advice ?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Are you referring to the separate message in boxes for SMS and email?
    On the Blackberry go to the main message queue, menu, options, general options.
    Scroll to SMS and Email in boxes, select separate.
    Thanks,

  • Cant send or recieve text messages with ichat

    when i use my aim account to chat, i can open a chat window with a buddy but when i do i get the "typing" symbol. it looks like i am typing but im not doing anything. when i actually do send a message, my friends can receive them but the window doesnt show that i sent anything, it just looks like i am typing. my friends respond but nothing changes on my screen, just the same old typing symbol for me. any one know whats going on?

    Hi Ralph,
    it is basically the same with parallels or vmware.
    Host-Only:
    Means taht you communicate only with your mac on a special independent interface (this has nothing to do with your macs ethernet or airport IP / Interface) The VM can not see the Internet then. Only your Host...
    NAT:
    Advantage: No need to reconfigure the VM when changing the Network or switching from Airport to Ethernet.
    Disadvantage: Shares the Macs IP (but i dont see if this is really a problem ;))
    bridged:
    Advantage: direct access to the 'external' network via the same Interface as the host. VM has its own IP
    Disadvantage: need to reconfigure the machine when switching networks
    Hope this clarified things.
    I still do not see why parallels in NAT mode should be a problem with iChat.
    Is there a known problem? I really would try if this problem also exists with vmware
    Regards,
    somi

  • I cant seem to recieve picture messages from other networks besides 3

    i cant seem to recieve picture messages from any other network besides 3.
    can someone please tell me if i can fix this problem and if its the phone?

    You can try the following on your friends phone:
    1.  Remove the contact card
    2. Then turn off iMessage and then back on again
    3. Go to Messages and compose a new message
    4. Press +.  This will make a list of recent contacts pop up.
    5. Click on the info button number of the contact you are trying to reach.
    6. Remove from Recents
    7. Try to compose another message
    8.  If the message attempts to send as blue (imessage), press on the message.
    9 Option to send as SMS will appear (as long as they have SMS turned on.
    10. Repeat and rinse.
    11. Messages will start changing over to all SMS as the user will show as non-imessage user.
    Hope this helps

  • Unable to send or recieve text messages

    For some reason I am unable to send or recieve text messages, can anyone help me with this situation

    Hi ,
    Is your Orange phone still working? The EE phone will have a temporary number until yours transfers over.
    When this has transfered you will need to do the below:
    Update your number
    Go to Settings > Phone > My Number.
    Replace the temporary number you find there with your own number - use +44 instead of the first 0.
    Then tap Save.
    Reset iMessage settings
    Your iMessage settings won't reset themselves during porting - the temporary number will still be in your new iPhone.
    To input your old number into your new iPhone:
    Go to Settings
    Tap on Messages
    Tap iMessage ON
    Scroll down to Send & Receive number
    Replace the temporary number with your old number
    Then tap Save.
    That's it, you're all ready for action. with your number.
     

  • Airplay disconnecting when sending and recieving a message

    I use Airplay on my iPhone to stream music from the music app to my Apple TV. When sending and recieving a message over Skype or Facebook, my phone disconnects from Airplay, pausing the music.
    Is this a common issue, and are there any known fixes, or do i just have to wait for Apple to fix this in a future update?

    That is silly - Facebook message notifications are tiny.  You can't provide some vague hand waving dismissal of the problem and blame network throughput.
    I have the same issue - it's obviously a bug with iOS or Facebook.  Airplay shouldn't disconnect every time a new message arrives.  If I don't have Facebook open the same messages still arrive in the background and airplay works fine.
    The issue is specific to a foreground app receiving notifications and then Airplay craps out.
    Come on Apple, fix this!

    Let the device sit for 15 seconds.
    Replace the battery.
    Power the device back on.
    Now you can proceed with your task.

  • HT4623 my phone3 will not send or recieve picture messages. How do I fix that?

    I have an Iphone 3 and net10 is my provider. I am unable to send or recieve picture messages or multi-media messages. Net10 told me to contact apple and there were some things in programing that will fix my problem. Is this true?

    That's a 3GS phone  (pls update your profile)
    Net10 is not a supported carrier of the iPhone so there are settings that need to be changed to use MMS/iMessage etc.
    You would need to contact them for the proper instructions.

  • Can't send or recieve text messages on the 7610

    Whilst on holiday my phone stopped beingable to send or recieve text messages. It was working for a few days but then just stopped and the message "delete some data to recieve sim messages". I deleted almost everything but nothing has worked. Im now back in the U.K and its still the same. Also, underneath the battery bar is an icon which I have never seen before, its the number 1 with an arrow underneath it going from left to right and pointing mid way thru.
    Is this a virus? Can anyone help please?

    I'd upgrade your firmware because when I had a 7610 it used to do all sorts of dodgy things like what has happened to you.
