Pics in messages?

ive had my iphone less than a week and yesterday it stopped  letting me send pics in messaging. Ive combed through the forums but cant figure it out.

Rudegar - I appreciate your test - it makes sense that it is working for you and many others, otherwise there would be a lot more reports like mine. Still, a few people are having this issue, so it is a peculiarity that we share, possibly in our settings.
I have the slider on for iMessage, Send as SMS, MMS & Group.
OI also have the "Group Text" app on my phone which has an option for sending texts to email addresses. I had that off. As a test, I turned the option on and sent a txt from imessage to my email with no success.
I also tried to send a text to email from in side Group Text with no success. .
Copy and paste is the work around but requires several steps and shouldn't be necessary.

  • Can you send pic/video messages in texts?

    i don't see the option to send pic/vid messages in the sms app...

    Not yet. Apple have said sending pics will be in the next version of iPhone OS (3.0). Nothing has been said about video, but then you can't create video on the current iPhone.

  • In ios7 how do I forward my received text/pics in messages to my email?

    I have an iphone 5
    I upgraded from last version of ios6 directly to ios7.1
    With ios6 I use to be able to Edit >Select messages or pics >send to my email
    In ios7 if I press on a text bubble or pic, I get a choice of copy or more....
    I select more...., select what I want then select the right facing arrow at the bottom right of the message screen.
    I select my name with my email address and press send.
    Everything selected is then sent to me as a message instead of to my email address.
    iphone also sends me another message to "Voicemail" (guess since it also contains my iphone number.)
    I tried going into the Messages settings and unchecked the ability to reach me by imessage at my email address, but
    the selected items are still sent to me as a message (but I dont get the Voicemail message).
    My wife has the same phone and we updated the same way and her's does the exact same thing.
    I tried to forward my messages to her email address but she receives them as messages also.
    If I turn off her phone's option to reach her by imessage at her email address, my phone shows the forwarded messages have been
    delivered, but now they go no where - not to her iphone or her email.
    I noted that with message pics I can tap the pic in messages which opens a pic viewer screen, then select the symbol of a square with
    an upward arrow and select it to be sent to message or email. Selecting email WILL send the pic to my email.
    Is this a bug or am I doing something incorrectly?
    Thx

  • Pic/vid messages

    I've just upgraded to a Droid Turbo. I thought that taking forever to send/receive pic/vid messages was just due to an old phone. I just tried to send a pic msg and an hour later is still sending. Any help?

  • Trying to upload pic's Message error download image issue?

    Trying to upload pic's from Iphone 4 to macbook air. iphoto is sending bcak an error message error downloading image? not able to upload?

    Jeff,
    When I purchased my Dell laptop a year ago it came loaded with Adobe Photoshop Premiere Elements 11 with photo editor and video editor. Since I really have only begun to learn to use the programs, and since I kept getting a message to upgrade now!, I decided to upgrade and learn to use edition 13 from the get-go. What I ordered was Photoshop Elements 13..order nbr AD014688152.
    What is happening is that it downloads okay but when it tries to open in Elements 11 I get the error message that it can't load, wrong type of file.
    My computer op system is Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit). I know I downloaded the 64-bit and not 32-bit. 
    Perhaps I ordered the wrong upgrade?
    I appreciate your help . Let me know if you need additional info.

  • Can't open pics in message

    Whenever some one sends me a picture in a message, and I try to open the pic it will just keep trying to load the picture, but not get anywhere. I have an iPhone 5 with unlimited text. My wife has the exact same phone and text plan, but does not have the issue. I can't find any setting that is different on her phone. Any suggestions?

    It was already on, but I restarted the phone, and that solved the issue. I guess that should always be the first thing you try.

  • Can`t send pics via messages

    I can`t send pics on my MacPro via messages (10.8). Sending text is no problems. How can I solve the problem? Thanks.

    HI,
    At the moment I cannot replicate this.
    I actually came across the "Quit IMTransferAgent" elsewhere in the Messages categorised Posts here.
    If I try to replicate this on my Mac then the Activity Monitor list bounces with something but I never see the process name as it finishes too quickly (even if I send from another Mac).
    It tends to be the Incoming end that says the file/pic is "Waiting"
    Does you Buddy see the waiting Message ?
    Do they have the IMTransferAgent showing continuously in the Activity Monitor at their end ?
    There will now be a break in transmission form this time zone

  • How do I fix my 3gs after 6.1.3 update? It will no longer send / receive group messages and won't send pic text messages either.

    Ever since I updated my 3gs (on ATT) to 6.1.3, it will no longer send or receive group texts, and it won't send picture messages
    (though I seem to be able to receive picture texts). I've looked around on the boards, and here's what I've tried so far (to no avail):
    1. Tried simply turning off / on
    2. Tried hard reset
    3. Tried having imessages off
    4. Turned group messaging off / on (tried while it was off)
    5. Turned off all messaging, turned phone off / on, turned all message settings back on
    6. Reset network settings
    Help! Argghh!!! I never had this much trouble when my previous phone was jailbroken! Here I am, trying to be good!

    Thanks, Nick. Calling ATT is a last resort; it's a software issue, I'm sure, and I've also found other
    people having the same issue, but none of the fixes work. I reset all my settings: nothing. I'm not sure what you mean by restrictions.

  • N8 Retrieving Pics from Message folder - How?

    Hi. I need help with this:
    I own an N8. I want to transfer photos that are stored in the 'My Folders' file in the Messages folder to my computer via USB. I am able to transfer photos from my photo file to my computer quite easily. However when a friend messages me a photo, I am unable to access the Messages folder when I connect my phone to the computer.
    I moved the photos to the 'My Folders' option in my Message folder, but I still cant seem to access it with the USB cable.
    Any ideas?
    I am using the standard USB cable that came with the phone. Bluetooth is not an option.

    Ok, Ladies and Gentlemen, It's facepalm time....
    I can't believe the solution was so simple:
    -I entered the Messages file.
    -Opened the My Folders file.
    -Opened the image I wanted.
    -Selected 'S'ave from the Options list.
    -And transfered the photo to the E:Mass Memory file
    Well... That was embarrassing.

  • If i have lost my iphone can i retrieve my pics and messages using icloud

    if i have lost my iphone can i retrieve my pics and contacts using icloud?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contacts should already be at iCloud.com if you have already set up iCloud sync services. Photos in Photostream can be viewed on a computer using the same iCloud account, but not at iCloud.com.
    If you haven't already set up iCloud on your phone you won't be able to do so now you have lost it.

  • LG Lucid-Cannot receive pics-Says message expired or not available

    This happens to me a lot as well on my LG Lucid. Sometimes I can receive an MMS and other times I can't. I have also seen quite a few attempts at answering this, but I have yet to see anything definitive on it. Is there anything new on this out there? Is it device specific? Carrier specific?
    Thanks!

        @Gern_Blankston,
    I appreciate you bringing this to the attention of the forum. We truly want to maximize your experience with the device. An MMS is sent using data services. If data is not available this can cause an interruption in your experience receiving MMS. Genuinely you will not see this on a smartphone but depending on the available memory of the device you may receive an error when receiving an MMS. If you have older text message threads that are no longer needed it is best to delete these message.

  • X6-00 not resizing pics for messaging

    Hi,
    My elderly, but otherwise perfect X6-00 has suddenly lost the capability of sending large size photos via MMS.
    My service provider (Vodafone UK) has tested the connection and has supplied a replacement sim card. They have also text me the correct settings, but still no luck.
    Vodafone suggested a 'hard re-set'.......no luck. Have also tried 'Factory Resttings', still no luck.
    The handset works perfectly in all other respects, including sending small size photos. But, I do NEED the large file transfer facility.
    Is there a fix, or is my trusty X6 in its final death throws?
    Many thanks. 

    Hi Alcopops,
    Thank you for posting and welcome to the forum. 
    Try to customize the Multimedia Settings of your phone for you to send large size of photos through MMS. Go to Messaging, select Options and then go to Settings. Once done, tap on Multimedia Message and then select Image Size. From there, you will be having an option to change it from small to large. If this doesn't work, consider double checking it with your Service Provider as they may limit the size of MMS messages. If the inserted picture exceeds this limit, the device may make it smaller so that it can be sent by MMS. And also, make sure that the device is running its latest software. 
    Try this and let us know the outcome.
    Cheers,

  • I am trying to send pic via messaging but the pics won't got thru!

    I have been trying to send a picture via text but it will not send. This has happened for a while, anyone know how to fix it.

    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On... and try again.
    If no joy... Conntact your Carrier and check your phone plan.
