My group MMS messages can't be received, only sent?

How do i fix this? I was able to receive and send earlier but now I can't, I can receive regular texts and iMessages fine but not getting any MMS and i know that there are messages being sent to me. Someone else in the group chat says that they receive my messages and respond but obviously I'm not getting any. I've restored my phone, restarted it, turned on/off group text, imessage, cellular data but nothing works

I realize the need to stay connected with your son. I just have a few questions so that I can further assess the situation.
Are you able to send him a text message from an email address?
Do you get the error message right away or does it take some time to send first?
Do you have usage controls or any other restrictions on his line.
Lastly, can you send a message to another number?

MMS message can not be sent or received until data connection is restored.

Error: MMS message can not be sent or received until data connection is restored? Droid X wont send or receive pictures.

I had this same issue. I downloaded APN Settings Shortcut from the play store and it worked for a day then it stopped again. The solution is easier than that... download the Verizon Messages app... bingo - NO more issues...

MMS messages I send showing received from different phone number

Very strange behavior. I sent an MMS (video taken previously with my iPhone 3GS and stored in my library)to two different iphone users (one message, two recipients)and on their phone it showed a completely different "from phone number" This happened at least three times. Sending the same message a fourth time displayed my correct phone number on the recipients phone. AT&T said it myst be a problem with Apple or my phone, they connected me to Apple. Apple said it can only be a problem with AT&T..... Go figure!

This same thing has happened to me, except I was on the receiving end. I was in the middle of an MMS discussion with a person who I regularly text with. Suddenly, a video MMS from the same person showed up from an unrecognized number - a number neither of us knows. Subsequent MMS messages showed up as having come from the correct number. Has anyone determined any causes and/or solutions to this? Thanks!
* Both iPhones are 3GS, neither is jailbroken, both are completely updated with most recent software and carrier settings.

Weird Group MMS message.

This morning at 2:38 AM I receieved a txt message. It was a "Group MMS" with 10 phone numbers listed. I only knew one of the phone numbers. It was a friend of mine, the message was just a picture of that friend. I've never seen the picture but I'm now getting txt's from a few people in that list saying that I send out the txt message when that's not the case. What's going on here?

I had the same thing happen to me, also when I replied it sent my reply to all. I turned off Group Messaging (Settings - Messages - Group Messaging). You'll still be able to send to multiple people, it will just keep replies from going to everyone in the list.

Receiving the same text message multiple times when person only sent it once. How can I make it stop?s from

I received the same message multiple times and the person that sends it only did it once. Also, I have trouble getting texts from non iPhone using friends.

It's actually probably a carrier (or hardware) issue on the sender's end. Tell the sender to pull the battery from their phone (or reset it if the battery is non-removable). I've seen this issue with certain HTC phones (HTC did release an update which solved the issue on my Thunderbolt). As far as I knew, I only sent the message once. However, it would show up multiple times on the receiver's phone. Pulling my battery would solve the problem for a while. It did take the software update to stop it permanently.

Re: IOS7 Preventing Reply-Alls in group MMS messaging

Is it possible to reply to just a single person in a group MMS?

No. Start a new converstaion with just that contact.

Making Groups in messaging and recent contacts list for sent messages !

I can't find any option for making groups for sending messages or getting list of recently sent messages to contacts. Every time I ve to scroll for contcts for multiple messaging or searching for contacts !
Is there any option for that ? Pls do let me know if so.

Have android, cannot receive group mms message from one specific iphone

I have a galaxy s4. My mom, dad, and sister, all have iphones. Whenever my family sends me a group message, I cannot receive any messages from my dad's phone. For example, if my mom sends a group message to my sister and me, I receive both of their messages. When she sends a group message to my dad and me, I only receive her messages, not my dad's.
Looking at the message history, group messages on my dad's iphone stay in imessage format (blue) even with my number as a recipient. On my mom's, the messages sent from her are green.
I can receive individual messages from my dad which are green.
I've checked the messaging settings on my dad's iphone and it completely matches my mom's messaging settings.
Is there any reason why his phone is staying in imessage format for group messages as compared to my mom's or my sisters?

I went through this after switching from iPhone to Android. I spent a couple of hours over a period of three days talking to Apple and Verizon support, trying everything they suggested. I finally got this info from a second-level Apple support rep: This is a known problem that will be fixed in some future release. Meanwhile, ask friends with iPhones to send you one-to-one messages, not group messages.

Why do I get Random Group MMS Messages?

My provider is AT&T and I just returned back to my family's family plan after not being able to cover a cell phone plan on my own finanically. Now I understand that every phone number these days comes with a bunch of calls from people who don't know the previous owner changed the number, but i'm now getting text messages (sometimes with pictures) that are being sent to several other people. None of these people know the person who is texting and don't seem to mind eating the few cents you get charged for it.
Is this a hack? Is there a bug in the IPhone 4S? Is there a bug in IOS? My family is trying to lean back on the phone expense, but this seems to be increasing it even thou it doesn't happen that often. Is this happening to other people?

Click holding the CONTROL key, it produces mostly the same result same result, after a short while it becomes second nature, and al least this way you are having to deal with the inwanted menus. You can also change the location on your trackpad of the secondary click which may work for you. You can get around much faster if you learn some keyboard shortcuts, (I use them all the time, faster and easier on your fingers)

Group MMS messages sending as iMessages

I am in a group message with six of my friends. About a year ago, one of the members of the group switched from iPhone to Android and for a while we had trouble with some of our phones not recognizing the switch and still sending messages in the group thread as iMessages. After we all updated our phones to a new iOS software system (7.1 I believe) the issue was fixed. Recently the problem has arisen again. Three of the members of the group (myself included) got new iPhones in the past week. My phone was sending messages as Text Messages until a few days ago, when the other two girls got new phones. Now only one person in the thread is sending messages as Texts in the group, the rest of our messages are sending as iMessage. It is very frustrating because we want everyone to be included. The problem seemed to be solved when I deleted the thread and created the group manually, but then it would go back to iMessage when someone would send a message. I have "Send as SMS" turned on and "Group Messaging" turned on.

Just in case anyone stumbles upon this thread with the same issue as mine, we seem to have found a solution! (for now, anyways) To fix this issue, I removed the friend with the Android phone from the group thread and then tapped "New Message" and entered in all 7 contacts, thus creating a new group thread. It worked after all of the iPhone turn off their phones and turned them back on. Problem solved! I hope this made sense/ was helpful

Group MMS - The good and the bad

While Group MMS on the iphone is a cool features sometimes, other times it is VERY annoying. Why can I not remove myself from a group mms? Turning group MMS off does nothing except receive the text individually rather than in one text. Clearly this "feature" wasn't thought though far enough. Not to mention non-iphone users get the joy of have no choice to exclude themselves from these conversations and recieve these all individually. I wish this feature was never implemented in the first place

Cancel your texting plan. It's a total ripoff anyway. Heck, AT&T even charges $5/month just to disable texting completely! It's either that or pay-per-message. I get one or two spam messages a month, which comes out to well less than $1, so I just leave it like that - I don't pay to have it fully disabled but I don't have a plan, either.
I use Google Voice for texting. I also use GV for all my calls, with my iPhone number set up as a "forwarding phone" - works great, gives me far more control, and all SMS is free. Anyone who simply has to send me a picture, video, or sound file can fire it off to my email address - and anyone from whom I care to receive such a thing has my email address, not just my phone number.
Texting, including media messaging, is great for "dumb" phones. But for iPhones and other devices with Push-enabled email, I just don't see the point. And since "texts" can be sent to email addresses, and email can be sent to phone numbers if you know the correct gateway (the "@blah-blah-blah.com" part"), I try to stay as far away from actual "texting" as possible.

Saving Recived MMS Message

Hello every boday,
I would like to know how mms message can be saved once received. Do I have to save every part in a separate file or is there a way to save the mms message and one whole mms file??
can anybody help me?
yours

Well, I wouldn't dare to call you an idiot
If you open iTunes and directly afterwards close it again you wouldn't expect to "save" your library 'cause nothing has changed. But even if you import, rename etc., all actions are completed instantly. It would be "bad" programming to occupy system resource for such a long time after exiting a program...
I agree with you, that it is not a real error message. Probably iTunes way to say, that it can't close because there is still some action going on in the iTunes folder (bij the antivirus program).
Anyway, I had this message too and only after I excluded the folder from my antivirus program it was gone.

Is it possible to send an MMS message?

I don't know if its just me but i cant see any way of sending a picture message. Can it be done if so how?
All I can see is a way of sending the picture as an email.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also for some reason my iphones ringing volume keep turning itself down and it always goes to the same volume, almost off. It happens intermittently is there a reason for this?

MMS messages can be sent through you email setup. MMS messages can not be sent like an SMS.
There is not any information as to if/when it will be added. You can send feedback to Apple with a request to add it. You will not be the only one to do this (I have done this as well).

Why can't I receive group text messages?

Why can't I receive group text messages? I can send group messages and receive a response and texting to individuals works also. My carrier is AT&T

Do I really have to have my LTE/3G data enabled in order to send/receive group text messages???? YES.
If so, that's a complete waste of my data package as far as I'm concerned. ... I'm not sure why I can't send/receive group text messages as plain texts????
Group messages are considered MMS, not SMS. MMS is transmitted over the cellular (data) network. It does NOT use your data plan, it uses your texting allowance. But data DOES need to be enabled to send and receive group and picture texts.

My group MMS messages can't be received, only sent?
