Saving pictures when receiving them in a MMS message

I have an iPhone 3G on o2 in the UK (therefore picture messaging is already enabled). I have received a number of pictures through text but I cant work out how to save these pictures, any clues?!

Nobody reads manuals these days
Just tap (do not hold!) on the picture in your message thread. After the picture opens full screen, tap on the icon ("sqare&arrow") on the lower left corner and then tap on "Save picture"
Done.

  • Contact pictures when receiving phone calls

    I have some contacts which have pictures directly taken with my iPhone and naturally they display full screen when receiving a call. Other contacts however have imported pictures which display as thumbnails when I receive a call.
    Is there a way to either have them all display as thumbnails (other than using pictures not takes with the iPhone)?
    Thanks for any input on this.

    Contact pictures assigned on your computer & then synced to your phone will appear as thumbnails, while contact pictures assigned directly on your phone will appear full size.
    This was in 3.1.3, but it should be similar in 4.0, although I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
    Thanks, yes, that is still the case.
    What I am trying to accomplish is, that ALL pictures show up as thumbnail. So, with all your replies it seems like the only way to do this would be to save the picture on the PC and then re-sync them.

  • Can't retrieve content when someone sends me an MMS message

    Hi folks
    I can't seem to retrieve content from MMS messages when they are sent to me. All the settings are there as far as I know and it's also set to automatically retrieve them but it won't seem to work. 
    I have a Curve 3G 9300 Smartphone and am on O2. It's a pay as you go but have a data plan and can use the internet and email with no problems whatsoever. 
    Any suggestions? 

    Well I don't know if it works the same way in the US but here in the UK we have to ask O2 to turn off MMS on our contracts. It should be set up that way by default but is sometimes not. When that is done you get the text asking you to go to the web site to view and including the pin number needed.

  • Iphone 5 freezing when receiving or responding to text messages

    I have a 16GB iPhone 5. Ever since updating to iOS 6 my phone has been freezing for 2-5 seconds when receiving a text or trying to respond to a text. The text notifications on the home screen are often delayed when a message comes in. I have restored the phone from icloud back up. This solved the problem for maybe 1 day. Rebooting the phone helps for few minutes. I find it hard to believe that this would be any kind of hardware issue.

    Yes it's happening to me to I have no clue if it's the software or my iphone

  • Can Keynote automatically sort Picture when dropping them in?

    Hey there,
    I'm trying to find a way to get several Pictures as fast as possible into one File that I can sent to my Friends to review. I was thinking of Keynote to do that, but once I import all into the App it shows all merged at one place. Is there a way to change that in Keynote? Or do you have suggestion about an app that can do that?
    Message was edited by: dakota73

    You can do this in Keynote. What you need to do is drag and drop the pics from the finder over to the slide thumbnail viewer on the left side of the screen. There seems to be some problem with the pics importing in a random order if you have the folder in the finder in view other then column view, so make sure you select that first. Then they will all show up on their own slide, in order.

  • My iPad stopped sending emails but will receive them. The error message  says password or username is incorrect. It is the same as all my other devices. Can anyone help?

    My IPad cannot send email although they are received okay. This stopped when I changed my password. I have deleted the account and resubmitted it 4 times and the results are the same. I have the same username and password on my iPod, cell phone and PC and they all work correctly. Can anyone assist?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • I don't have a 3G so i use Sms/Mms messaging when i have wifi. My co'iphone users receive my text messages but i cant receive theirs because it sends as an imessage. HELP thanks

    I Don't have a 3G on my iphone 4. So when i dont have a wifi, i send text through SMS/MMS messaging. I can receive and send SMS/MMS messages to non iphone users. I can also send the same messages to my co iphone users but i cant receive theirs because it sends as imessage. someone help me pls. Thnks

    The only way to get around that, since you do not have a data plan, is to completely disable iMessage. While you can turn on the switch for Send As SMS on, which could send your messages as SMS when not connected to Wi-Fi and data is not turned on, it could also find your messages lost in the server and never delivered. Also, anyone sending to you would have to be set up the same way. You can check out this support document for deactivating iMessage. iOS: Deactivating iMessage
    iMessage requires an active data connection for both the sender and receiver to work properly.

  • Saving pictures sent in text message to centro album...

    Can somebody help me?  I'm fairly green to the whole computer & smartphone world...  Let me apologize beforehand.
    I'm looking for some assistance saving pictures sent to me as a text message to my centro album.  I do not have email access on my phone so I'm looking for a way to hot sync them to my PC as I'm able to do with the pictures I take myself.
    Thanks in advance for ANY help.

    I have verizon but i was having the same problem but i just kept messing around. to save picture txt on a palm centro into the palm album, you click on the image icon that appears next to the txt, and then you press the button that is next to the alt key. and that will give you a list of things to do, including save picture and you can select which album you want to save it to

  • Iphone4,upgrade to IOS7.1.2. Photos associated with contacts display as thumnails when receiving calls. How do I change to full photo?l

    IPhone4 Upgraded to IOS 7.1.2. Photos associated with Contacts now display as thumbnail pictures when receiving calls . How do I enlarge display.

    You weren't the only one that wanted the full screen photos back. There were a lot of complaints and they are back in iOS 8 but that doesn't help you with iOS 7.1.2 unfortunately.

  • Aperture jumps to wrong picture when working with stacks

    Hello
    I am working with stacks on Aperture 3.3 and Mountain Lion.
    I experience the following annoying bug:
    Each time I take an action on any stack (say adding a picture to the stack, collapsing the stack, extracting a picture from the stack, etc), the action gets completed but the viewer then keeps jumping to another picture in the same event (always the same picture) instead of keeping the cursor on the just acted-upon picture.
    This is really annoying, in particular since I am working on a large event with 2,000 pictures and thus each time this happens I have to scroll back through hundreds of pictures to get back to the one where I was working. In effect this renders the stacks functionality useless.
    I have tried already the various repair/rebuild options for the library, to no avail...
    Any ideas / pointers?
    Many thanks!
    Alex

    Hi mikeleung81
    No one ever responded to my original post;-(
    I have further experimented and read around, improved the situation but have not been able to fully solve, here is specifically where I am at:
    - have observed further problematic symptoms including random ordering of pictures when copying them to albums, crashes when exporting slideshows, etc
    - I have performed multiple time the various repair/rebuild options for the library
    - also moved back my library from an external drive to the iMac hard drive, and created more space on the hard drive which was quite full (moved iTunes db to the external drive)
    - I have also manually degrouped each stack, then re-grouped one by one (I observed a couple of odd behaviours of jumping around on specific stacks while doing this, which tells me that the issue may lie in individually corrupted stacks)
    - ended up with a database that was behaving correctly for a while, but then started to exhibit again same symptoms
    - at this stage I believe issue may be linked to my system being underpowered (memory leakage): 2007 iMac, 2GB of memory to handle 100GB library. I am anxiously awaiting the release of the new iMac to upgrade and hopefully solve...
    Curious about similarities / differences on your side?

  • Why is it that when I text pictures, the recipient does not receive them.  I've noticed that I have a camera roll which is where I choose pics from, but nothing in Photo Stream.  Can someone please let me know what the issue might be?  Thank you!

    Why is it that when I text pictures, the recipient does not receive them.  I've noticed that I have a camera roll which is where I choose pics from, but nothing in Photo Stream.  Can someone please let me know what the issue might be?  Thank you!

    Some phones can only send and recieve SMS messages. If the recipients phone doesn't support MMS they won't be able to recieve a text with a photo.
    To get your photos in Photo Stream, you'll need to setup iCloud. Check out this Apple article for more info -> iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ

  • I duplicated a picture and now iPhoto (11) is cloning that picture replacing all the other photos and only when I click directly on them I can see the real picture! How can I solve the problem without losing any saved picture? Shall I re-install? Thanx

    I duplicated a picture selecting CMD and D but, suddenly, iPhoto (latest version '11) started cloning that picture and replacing all the other photos with it.
    Only when I click directly on one photo I can open it and see the real picture it is.
    But the preview is always the duplicated one...
    I tryed to duplicate another picture just to see if it turned out ok but the only changement was the duplicated picture!
    I started repeating the second duplicated one instead of the previous one but my issue remained the same.
    So, how can you help me to solve this problem without losing any saved picture?
    Shall I re-install iPhoto completely?
    Thank you very very much in advance!!

    As Larry says, restoring the back up is the fastest and best solution. Otherwise:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
