Photos appearing as blank text message on iPhone 5

Hi there!
So, I have a 16GB iPhone 5S. It is updated to the most recent version, iOS 8.1.3.
My issue is that when I send any pictures (to iPhone users and non-iPhone users) it sends, but then the image disappears and shows an empty message like in the attached image.
The images DO show when I go into the Details section of the message threads. I have no idea why this happening and I cannot fix it. Please help!

Hi sfilippelli,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. If you continue to have issues sending images in Messages, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful. In particular, you may want to double-check that MMS messaging is turned on, and may want to try resetting your Network Settings.
If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Regards,
- Brenden

  • How to get senders photo to appear beside their text message

    Does any one know how to get the photo of the person who sends a text to appear.  My contacts all have a photo and I'm linked to Facebook.

    iOS does not support photos appearing next to text messages, as they do for emails and telephone calls.

  • Some of my contact names are not appearing when they text message me.  They are just showing up as their numbers. I have them saved in my phone so i am not really sure why their names aren't showing up when they message me?

    I have this identical problem.  For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad.  Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something.  Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads.  I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time)  Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc.  There still hasn't been a solution.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • LG Revolution not receiving text messages from iphone user

    I am not receiving text messages from iphone user, sporatically.  The messages are showing as reveived on Verizon website in usage detail, but not being received on my phone.

        This issue needs fixed asap! I have a few suggestions that should help you get this resolved. If they are showing up in the usage details, that means they are hitting the Verizon network, but for some reason they are not showing up on the phone.   I recommend clearing the cache from your messaging/text messaging programs. Go to settings> applications> manage apps> all> Messaging/Text Messaging> Force Stop/Clear Cache/Clear Data. Erase the old text threads that you have saved and retry.
    If that doesn't work, please let us know the following:
    1) Do they come in delayed or not at all?
    2) Do you have any 3rd party messaging apps installed?
    3) Do they have any problems receiving messages from you?
    4) When they're sending messages, are they directly to you, or do you have this problem when the iPhone user sends to a group of people?
    Thanks for the additional info! I'm sure we can find a fix.

  • HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

    I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

    If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

  • Text messages on iphone 5s getting error message not delivered

    when attempting to send a text messages on iPhone 5s getting error message not delivered with a red explanation mark. I have filed cases with carrier and it comes back as device, some messages do go thru fine and then it will give the error for several message and then back to working again. Please Help.

    Hi
    I am NOT trying to be mean or patronizing so my apologies if this comes across that way
    That said
    SMS texts are sent on a part of the same carrier wave that carries voice calling and conversation as opposed to data - which is why even non smart phones can text - it is the unused portion of the spectrum that initially carriers were making money off of
    http://computer.howstuffworks.com/e-mail-messaging/sms.htm
    In other words - to be able to text - one has to have a plan that supports that
    Also that is why in some plans international texts have a cost whereas one can merrily iMessage from anywhere in the world and get away with it free
    So - if the texts are not leaving your phone - chances are that they do not have a channel to do that - that is an AT&T issue

    @randers4
    That is exactly what I've been doing.
    I get dozens of photos from a job site every day and it just takes forever.
    I had hoped there was an easier - or at least more direct and simpler way.
    Thanks anyway.

  • Generates blank text message when retrieving answe...

    Network: Orange
    Phone model: N95
    I am wondering if anyone will be able to help me solve this problem :
    Everytime i retrieve a voicemail message, my N95 generates a blank text message. It is very irritating to delete blank messages after each retrieval. Is there any solution for this? This is my second N95; My previous one had the same problem.

    Contact your carrier. That often indicates that Visual Voice Mail is not provisioned correctly on the carrier side.
