Picture Messages not displaying in threads

I have started to experience a new issue with my iPhone 5 this week. There have been several instances where I have sent a picture message to someone, after I send the photo, i go back to the messaging thread a few moments later and it doesn't show the picture(s)... It's as if I never sent the photo. I have asked my friend(s) if they got the photos i sent, but they said no, so I have to send a 2nd time. How do I fix this?

Hello erin_beth09,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post it sounds like you're having issues sending a picture message, also known as MMS.  To resolve the issue, please follow the steps below:
To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps
Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you're roaming on a cellular provider network that is different from your billing provider's network.
Make sure that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar of your iPhone.
Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
Make sure that you can send and receive SMS. If you can't send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above. MMS might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
Restart your iPhone.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
Remove your SIM card and insert it again.
If you still can't send or receive MMS, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you're sending a group message.
Make sure that you're using the area code with the contact's phone number. When you send messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
If you're using a "Pay as you go" MMS plan, make sure it has enough available balance. If you're unsure of your MMS plan or available balance, contact your carrier.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the new contact.
Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process might not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
Contact your carrier to verify that you're provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
Contact your carrier to verify that there aren't blocks or filters on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
Your carrier might require modified APN settings to use MMS.

  • Samsung Continuum Issues - Picture messages NOT displaying embedded images + Android 2.2?

    I recently purchased the samsung continuum a few months ago and have had a difficult time with the following two issues:
    The phone is NOT rooted.
    (1) Picture Messages are not displaying as embedded images in my message notifications. All i see is "Message Size and the word downloading.  The picture is only 10K, so it should download relatively fast.  The image does not appear in my gallery either.  Please help?  Where is the image and why can't i see it in my message.According to the notes in SCH-I400.DL17, this issue should have been resolved.     
    (2) How come the Contiuum has not received an update to Android 2.2?  The Fascinate and Continuum were both released at the same time and the Fascinate received the update.
    Here is my phone specs:
    Phone information:    
    Hardware version:  i400.0.6 
    Firmware version:  2.1-update1 
    Baseband version:  S:i400.0.6V.DL17 
    Kernel version 2.6.29 
    Build number:  SCH-I400.DL17    

    I don't understand how the Fascinate has Android 2.2, but is discontinued and the Continuum is still being sold new. What is up with that Verizon? I like the Continuum but would like to see it upgraded.  I still have over a year till I can get a new phone too. Very confusing.
    Sorry I can't help you with the picture messages as I don't have a solution.

  • I have restored my new replacement iPhone 5s from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying i don't have any pictures, it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!

    I have restored my new replacement iPhone from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying I don't have any pictures in my camera roll, it has all the spaces for them, but it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!

    It's difficult to say whether it's stuck or not as the time to restore a backup can depend on many factors.  You'll have to decide when you think it's just not continuing.  You could try turning the phone off (hold the power button until you see the red off slider, then slide to turn off), then back on to see if that would get it going again.
    When you're convinced it's just hung, you can go back to settings and tap Stop Restoring iPhone to stop the restore.  You'll then have to try restoring it again (Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup).  Be sure it's connected to your charger and wifi while it's restoring the backup.
    You might also try the approach posted here by ezjules: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589.  This seems to have worked for some people who had trouble restoring their photos from an iCloud backup.

  • Pictures do not display in my yahoo emails, but they show up if I go to forward the email, since I went to version 5.0 please help, win7

    Since I updated to version 5.0 of firefox, 95% of pictures do not display in the body of emails using my yahoo account. If I go to forward the email however I can find them displayed in the forwarding window. I do have all pictures set to display in the ff settings, and have not made any setting changes before or after the update. At first I thought it was the "New" yahoo mail, which I switched to from the "classic", but I cannot switch back. I finally opened my yahoo mail in IE, and the pictures show right up.

    If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
    *Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
    Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
    *Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and "<i>Block Images from...</i>" has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
    Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the <b>permissions.default.image</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page should be 1.
    Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

    Any suggestions? If not, how do I downgrade to the previous OS version?
    Thanks,

    Is this with a specific account or all three accounts?
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?

  • Old pictures can not display after Itunes upgrade

    Earlier today I updated to the newest version of Itunes. I also added some new pictures to my synched directory for pictures (this directory has approx 725 pics that were all on my phone prior to this update of Itunes).
    When I synched to add the new pictures I got a message saying "some pictures could not be synched because they can not be displayed on the phone". Only 200+ of the pictures were transfered and the rest are not there.
    Again all of these pictures were on teh phone before so I am not sure why they can not be displayed now. I have tried re-synching and that did not help.
    Any thoughts?

    I am also having this problem. I have a 160gb classic that I bought last fall. I have a work computer I've used for my iTunes synch base due to broadband access.  The system had worked well enough with 64 bit XP and a few registration tweaks to calm itunes about working in that old environment. Forward to 2 weeks ago - I copy my library to the network drive so that IT can scrub the computer and upgrade me to Win 7. Computer is back up, install the newest version if iTunes, seems to come up fine. Several rounds of re-importing the library after it kept entering all the songs twice. Go to re-synch the ipod - get the 'this is a new device, erase *EVERYTHING* and re-synch. Yep yep. Sits there for nearly two hours saying it's re-uploading stuff. Then on the way home, I see - hey, a ton of stuff isn't there, lots of missing podcasts. Go check, everything is checked, new stuff downloaded, can listen to it on the PC with headphones. Then go synch the iPod - get the same 'things are updating..... synch finished'. And nothing has up- or down-loaded. Tried unchecking stuff, nada. Import new stuff, nada. Nothing   Plus it looks like pretty much every CD i ripped into itunes for the past 4-5 months failed to move - maybe iTunes was saving it somewhere else than the My Music folder.    PITA-factor of that aside, I'd really like to get at the last 3-4 weeks of podcasts. Any help on getting the system to actually do a real sy

    strange..
    wddobeforeaction will trigger then event handler wil trigger then wddoafteraction will trigger.
    Did you put a break point in wddobeforeaction?

  • Error message not displayed - Downloading files in a table

    Hi!!!
    I'm following the guide to download files onDemand in a table, you can find that guide at:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b0e10426-77ca-2910-7eb5-d7d8982cb83f
    If found a problem with the guide: What would happen if there's an error while downloading or somenthing else? There the author doesn't explain how to show an error in the view.
    What I'd like to do is to show a error message in the view where the table is.
    I tried to add some code, but it doesn't finally show the error message.
    I have a method that generates the file and returns the path of the file in the context, so I can read it. It return boolean (true if the file was generated, false on the contray). That method is called executeZgav_Sf_Formulario_Sv_Input(nroEmpleado, nroViaje, morei, datosEspejo); and is working fine.
    I also have a static class that reads a file and returns the byte[] called: ManejoArchivos.getByteArrayFromResourcePath(wdContext.currentOutput_FormularioSVElement().getP_Path(), true);
    But if for example, the parameters are incorrect and the file cannot be generated, the method is supposed to show an error but is not displayed on the screen.
    I have some code after that which validates if the file could be read or not and returns the bytes of a prewritten PDF file with an error message.
    Added code:
              byte[] r = null;
              boolean continuar =
                   this.executeZgav_Sf_Formulario_Sv_Input(nroEmpleado, nroViaje, morei, datosEspejo);
              if (continuar)
                   try {
                        r =
                             ManejoArchivos.getByteArrayFromResourcePath(
                                  wdContext.currentOutput_FormularioSVElement().getP_Path(),
                                  true);
                   } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
                        wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportMessage(
                             IMessageData.ARCHIVO_NO_ENCONTRADO,
                             null,
                             true);
                   } catch (IOException e) {
                        wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportMessage(IMessageData.PROBLEMA_IO, null, true);

    Hi Alejandro,
    Try This.
    try
    catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Given FileNotFoundException : "+e.getMessage(),true);
    catch (IOException ex) {

    Now, there you have me.  I did the same thing in our test upgrade system and couldn't find any way of removing the dummy number, apart from replacing the default id and number with a custom message id and number pointing to a blank message (as I mentioned in my last post) ..... but then that had the effect of reducing the length of the message to the standard message length so removing the main reason why I didn't use a message class in the first place ie I wanted to display a longer message.
    We have our proper upgrade system in place now, so I'll be taking another look at this.  I haven't checked OSS again yet but it is possible there that is now a SAP note to fix this.  If not, I'll have another look at implicit enhancements.
    ......   I've just searched these forums using "no vendor specified" and there are some useful posts proposing solutions which I'm going to have a look at.
