Problem sending MMS/Picture messages

Wondering if anyone else is having this problem:
I'm finding that if i try to send someone a picture message along with a typed message, as soon as i hit send i get a little message saying its converting and then it just stays stuck on "sending". It never actually sends the message.
I realized this two days later when a friend said they had not received my text. I resent the picture without a typed message and then they suddenly received BOTH pictures (the original with the message and the new one).
Sounds like a weird software to me? Any thoughts?

Thank you everyone for reporting this issue. I can understand that it would be frustrating to have to try multiple times to send the same message. I have a Nexus myself and tried with a few other Nexus' here and was not able to duplicate the issue. Since there are multiple people having this issue, I will escalate this issue to our product team to further investigate this issue. I will need more details to troubleshoot. Do you notice this only happening in a certain location? Does it happen when picking up 3G, 4G or both? Do you get an error message or what exactly happens when trying to send MMS? Does this happen only when the signal is low, or with full signal?
Also, try removing the battery and SIM card for about 30 seconds. Toggle airplane mode and network mode for a few seconds, then retest.

If you were trying to send them over Wifi, that may be the reason. For mms, you have to use the network data connection, it won't work on Wifi.

Problems with sending/receiving picture messages

Does anyone know how to sort problems with sending/receiving picture messages on the iphone 4S? I've gone through all the re-setting etc at the place I bought it and it still doesn't work!! Spoken to 02 and they said it's an issue with Apple software?? Any help appreciated.

Can you send/receive SMS's? If so, and you can't send/receive MMS's, and MMS is turned on in Settings, 99.9% of the time the problem is on your carrier's end...most likely MMS is not provisioned properly on your account, regardless of what your carrier is telling you. Call back & have them remove MMS from your account & then re-provision your account for MMS.

I cannot send a picture message to non apple devices

I have an iPhone 5s. The issue with messaging is that I can send iPhone users pic messages, and them to me (with wifi or data on) but non iPhone users can send me a pic, which I receive, but I cannot send a pic to them. I can text to non iPhone users fine, it's just the image that won't go through.
Obviously I can use Apples service, but obviously not Verizon's? And I don't mean their app.
Be aware that I have done a network reset and have checked to make sure that MMS is turned on and on top of that I have 4 addresses that are stored for sending and receiving.
Thank you!

@wastudent
I want to ensure you're able to send and receive, picture messages from non iPhone users as well as iPhone users!
When did this problem begin? Have you been able to send picture messages to other non iPhone users in the past? Do you get an error message when you attempt sending a picture message? Please let me know so that I can further assist. Thanks!

Problem in delivering Picture Messages through Java SMPP client

I m working on development of SMPP Client, using Java. In it�s development I didn�t used any API from eny vendor, and implemented purely in Java. I am facing one unusual problem in receiving of Picture Messages. Also, I have one C based client application.
I m sending picture message through both client application(s) to be delivered over different handset(s). I have tested many different cases, but could not conclude to any solution. The behavioral cases are as follows;
When I sent same picture message through Java SMPP client on Nokia 1100, it get received with prompt �Picture Message Received�. And on viewing it, �Message cannot be displayed�, is informed and no picture message get displayed. Till now it happens for every caseto this handst, but get properly displayed on Nokia 32xx / 53xx.
Whereas while sending through the C SMPP Client on Nokia 1100, sometime it get displayed and sometimes it doesn�t. Same prompts follows on not receiving right picture message while using Java SMPP Client
I m not understanding why;
It doesn�t get delivered correctly a picture message, every time I submits it to deliver on 1100 while sending through C based,
And why It doesn�t get delivered correctly at all while sending through Java SMPP client on 1100 whereas it get delivered correctly over other Nokia model handset.
Kindly, anyone make me solve out the prob��.

Hi,
Even we have implemented the Java SMPP client, to sending the picture message as embeded SMS.
If you do not have issue to share the SMPPClient which is sending the picture message, I can look into the code and help you. Let me know, I can share my personal email id.

Sending a picture message

*Can you send a picture message from the iPhone?*

Tamara wrote:
Yes, you can. You would use the email feature of the iPhone.
The easiest way to do this is have a friend send a picture message to whatever email address you are using on the iPhone. This will give you their "MMS email address". Just attach a pic to email and send it to that address.
I think this is dependent on the phone, and not all are capable of receiving attachments in this manner.

I get a "Network Authentication Failed" when trying to send a picture message...any suggestions?

My daughter has a Samsung Intensity II and whenever she (or I) try to send a picture message from it, we get "Network Authentication Failed". I have tried calling *228, option 2, but that did not resolve the problem. Any other suggestions out there?

Try *228, option 1 instead to reprogram the phone. Option 2 just updates the roaming list.
Are you in an extended coverage area? You should be within a native Verizon Wireless coverage area when reprogramming the phone.

Why can't I send a picture message to an email on a computer?

Ever since the update, I can't send picture messages from my phone to my computer, but I can send them from the computer to the phone with no problem. what is the problem?

Nate0421, Let's make sure we get your picture messages working! What happens when you try to send a picture message from your phone to your computer? Do you receive any error messages? Are you trying to send the messages using the messaging application or via email? Please share details so we can help.

Make sure you have MMS on in Settings > Messages.

MMS Picture Message

How do i send a MMS Picture message with the blackberry 8330 for sprint ?

O, MMS is a function supported for your Carrier, not for the device, call Sprint Customer Center and ask for MMS, thanks.

My iphone will not send a picture message?

My iphone will not send a picture message.

Had the same prob w/ pics not sending. Spent hours on phone and finally got problem solved. Hopefully this will help other people experiencing this problem.
First, go Settings, then select Phone. Under "My number" it should say your current number. If it doesn't (as it didn't in my case) call sprint (dial *2 on your phone). Tell the sprint agent you would like your Name assigned to your number.
In my case, I had been added to an existing family plan. I was assigned a random new cell phone number, but then later changed it to my old existing phone number from AT&T. So if you are like me and brought your old cell phone number with you when you switched to Sprint, then this may be the issue.
When I was experiencing the problem with my pictures not sending, the wrong phone number was showing as my number on the phone (even though people could call and text me using my current number).

Is anyone else having a problem sending a mail message with PDF attached?

Is anyone else having a problem sending a mail message with PDF attached? I receive the following message:
Sending the message content to the server failed.
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
Is there a fix for this?

Anyone? I was hoping my problem would just 'fix itself'... but I still have some clients telling me they're not receiving any email from me. I've since deleted that account on my computers and re-added it. But still having the same issue.

Hi no none of my other data services are working normally and when I try to send my picture messages it says not delivered and tells me it's unable to send.

Hello Joe,
I found a few resources you can use to troubleshoot the iMessage issues you are experiencing.
I recommend reviewing this article first:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268
If your Apple ID is activated in the Messages Settings and you still cannot send and receive iMessages, I recommend following the steps in the section titled "If you still can't send or receive iMessages" in the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
