My iPhone 4 will not send or receive pictures unless from another i product

i recently had my i phone connected thru staight talk, and im am unable to send or receive pictures via text unless its another iphone, the phone has not been jail broken or anything, is there something in the settings i need to do, help...........or is that the cost for jumping ship from at&t

Your carrier is the one that enables SMS/MMS.  Contact them.
You understand the difference between SMS/MMS and iMessage. Right?
Also: Settings > Messages > Send as SMS > ON  (Should not make a difference when sending to non-iOS phones)

  • IPhone 5 will not send or receive picture messages ? Tried everything !

    Recently purchased iPhone 5 and have found that I am unable to send or receive picture messages I have tried all of the suggested fixes and still will not work ! I find this extremely annoying and a bit ridiculous that considering the iPhone 5 is meant to be the best phone available to date I can't send or receive a simple mms message this needs sorted !

    First does your carrier contract support MMS?
    If so, is Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging  turned ON?

  • My iPhone 5 will not send or receive pictures?

    I have an unlocked iPhone 5 purchased directly from Apple.  I am using it on StraightTalk.  Everything seems to be fine except for my ability to send and receive picture messages.

    StraightTalk is a prepaid service.  It uses other carriers towers.  They require a GSM phone and you can use a phone from AT&T or T-Mobile.  I just switched over recently and for the most part it is great.

  • My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times

    My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times.  My brother has the same phone, lives in the same home and doesn't have this problem.  I can't receive messages without my iphone displaying a message asking for my phone number at random times. It happens intermittently.  Does anyone know why this happens? I am referring to regula text messages not imessages.  I have turned it off and also updated to the most recent software. thanks

    I've been an AT&T customer since they were under different names in the 90s and have never heard/seen that. I would check with them. I'd really like to see that error. To get a screenshot on the phone, press the home button and sleep/wake button together quickly and release. You will see the screen flash slightly and hear the camera shutter noise.

  • Since update, will not send or receive picture messages unless using imesage

    Since the I0S6 update, my phone will not send or receive picture messages unless it's being sent through iMessage.
    I know of other people having the same problem, with different versions of the phone and different carriers.
    Anyone else?
    I have the iPhone 4 with Sprint.
    Friend has the iPhone 4s with Verizon.

    Check settings/message and make sure MMS is ON.  Also chcek that your carrier/your plan allows sending of pictures over MMS

  • My iPhone 4 will not send or receive texts.

    My iPhone 4 has all the latest software in it. It will not send or receive texts. When trying to send a text it says not delivered .It was working and then just stopped. I did a reset on the phone but it didn't seem to help me.

    SMS is a carrier feature, what did they tell you whether your SMS is properly provision?

  • My iPhone 4, is not sending or receiving pictures since I updated to iOS 7

    Every since I have updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7, I have not been able to send or receive pictures through text messages. I know it is not a carrier issue since I was able to send them before but now I am unable to. I need to get this fixed ASAP and help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Will not send or receive pictures

    when I am at home on my house wifi...I can text, but am unable to send or receive pictures or icons.

    Picture texts will not send/receive over wi-fi, they require a mobile data connection.  They count against your text package, though, not your data package.

  • IPhone 5s will not send or receive mms/group messaging

    Hello,
    I recently got a new iPhone 5s for my birthday. Before I had a iphone 4. My carrier is verizon
    I had never been able to send pictures to friends who have non iphone phones. I also was never able to receive a group message with people who have non iPhones and iPhones. When I try to send a group message including non iphone users, it sends all messages independently. I have tried everything from turning iMessage and mms on and off to taking out my SIM card. My friend who has an iphone started a group chat with users of iphone and non iphone, though I am still not able to receive the messages even with a new phone and a new SIM card. Is this a problem with verizon? Even so my friends who receive the group chat have verizon and still get the messages. Please I need to fix this because it's extremely aggravating that a simple group messaging function does not work and that no one so far can give me answer on how to fix this. Thanks.

    Contact Verizon. Group messages in iOS send as MMS messages, which is the same thing used to send picture messages. Your account is not provisioned properly (or you do not have a plan that includes MMS messaging).

  • My Droid Incredible 2 will not send or receive pictures with texts.

    It used to work fine but when received now, it gives option to "download" or "decline" -- download ends in a loop that never works.  I also can no longer send texts with pictures attached.  Help?!

        Help is here! Picture messaging is extremely important to me. There are a few things we can check in order to get your MMS working again. We first want to make sure your other data services are working. Are you able to access the browser from the device?
    You can also go to settings>applications>all>go to messaging>clear cache
    Also, clear out any threads of old messages and try to send your MMS again.
    Please let me know how that works for you.

  • My phone will not send or receive imessages.

    iphone 4s will not send or receive imessages.  Some messages were going to ipad but not phone.  I turned off ipad messaging.  turned off and on imessaging on iphone.  backed up phone to itunes and restored it.  It seems to accept my apple id.  Tried changing the date stuff from suggestion on another discussion. Did hard reboot a few times. Any Ideas?

    Go to Settings>Messages> turn iMessage off. The go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. Do a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, go back into Settings>Messages and turn on iMessage. See if it activates.
    Apple has acknowldged an issue with iMessage and is working on an update. Look for that to be released sometime this week.

    Yes I have turned imessage off a number of times and that does not seem to he doing the trick, and it is not delivering them then I have to press on the photo and either chose try again or send as text message, I have had the setting on to not allow sending pictures as texts (so they can only send as imessage) since I got my phone in January and it has always worked until now, I have turned that off to allow me to send them as picture messages now but it's still not working over iMessage, I have also tried it using 3G and not wifi
