Transferring pictures sent via sms to PC

My Daughter has over the past two years sent pictures of my Granddaughter via sms to me and now they are getting to be too many when I scroll down the list. I have an ip5 and would either like to transfer them into my itunes library or onto a seperate file on my PC. I haven´t activated or allowed photos taken with my ip5 camera to sync onto/into my itunes library or icloud when connected to the PC while I transfer these photos manually onto the PC. Any suggestions?

Follow on comments:
I contacted LG Product Support with the same question. Their partial response follows:
If you are trying to transfer files from the phone to the computer, you will need a micro SD card. Your phone supports a memory card with up to 32GB
Since the memory of your phone is too small the computer will not recognize it, so that’s why you must get a memory card and move the pictures to the memory card
In order to move the pictures to the SD card, you must go into your picture gallery and tap more, then select “move to SD card/ move to phone”, select all files, hit move.
After this, go to Menu - Settings & Tools - tools - USB Mass storage, and then connect the phone to the computer. Your phone will be recognized as a removable disk and you will be able to drag and drop the files.
Sincerely,
Lorraine D.

HT3529 why do some messages in a string get sent via iMessage (blue) while others in that string are sent via SMS (green)?

why do some messages in a string get sent via iMessage (blue) while others in that string are sent via SMS (green)?

Because the other end may not be on a data network and can receive SMS only at that time. Also if imessage can't send via imessage then it will fall back to SMS if you have that turned on.

IPhone 5 - "Not Delivered" Message for Pictures Sent via iMessage

I have received the "not delivered" message when trying to send a picture message via iMessage. The pictures actually are received by the other parties, yet I still get the error message, as do other parties when trying to send photos to me. If the picture is sent via text they send without the error message. Does anyone have any information that could help me with this problem?
I have the 32GB iPhone 5 on iOS 7.1.1.

Any errors when attempting to view pics?
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?

Blackberry 10 blackhole in SMS: slow to appear and disappearing messages sent via sms

hi. i and my friends are z10 and q10 users. two of us are really heavy phone users because of our work. most of the time, we have to communicate with several people fast at the same time. we've noticed the following problems - 1) we've noticed that when we get to a point when several messages are coming in from the different messaging apps and it coincides to when we just sent a sms, said message literally disappears - it doesn't get received by the recipient, and neither does it appear in the conversation thread. when that starts to happen, whatever i type and send just goes nowhere. however, for some reason, when i highlight the message that i will send, it will go through and, i guess, "closes the blackhole" and messages get sent and are recorded again in the conversation thread. perhaps blackberry can fix things such that we won't have to lose messages to "blackholes" again 2) i've been using my q10 since 2nd week of june. i've noticed that over time, the messages i type in sms section seem to take longer and longer to appear in the screen. and when it appears is the only time when it starts to send the message, which happens faster. so if i close my phone (or even just the "chat" or conversation thread with my contact to open another conversation thread with another contact) before the text i typed appeared on the screen, it doesn't get sent until i open my phone or the said conversation thread again. this is very inconvenient especially when i'm in a hurry. now, the longest it's taken for the text to appear on the screen is around 10 seconds. i've tried to find ways to speed-up the appearance of the text but have been unsuccessful so far. i know it's not a network problem since such lag also happened when i was in other countries and used local prepaid accounts in the same phone. I hope blackberry can find tech people who can help fix these things. we really love blackberry and it would be such a shame to lose it.

Same issue here on my Q5. Same problem occured with the 10.1 os that come with my one month old Q5 and now that I have upgraded to 10.1, the same problem is still there. It takes time to appear and to disappear. 15-20 seconds. Just with SMS/MMS.
Also, the Calendar is a mess. It does not stop making mistakes such as appearing in wrong dates....
I had none of these issues with my old Curve 9300.

Picture sent via adobe reader

I received a picture in my email that was sent through Adobe Reader x. I am trying to send this picture to 'my pictures' and have it set as my background, but cannot figure out how. Can anyone help?

Not really an Adobe Reader issue.
If it IS a file that Reader can open, that means it's a PDF. If you want to use an image as a desktop background, it will need to be converted to a .jpg or the like (an image file).
Adobe Reader cannot do this. You would need to either have Adobe Acrobat (the paid version) or something else that can convert PDF to an image file such as a .jpg. Google "convert PDF to .jpg" and see what you can find.

Why can't pictures be sent via text?

Why can't pictures be sent via text?

Because the SMS (Short Messaging) standard does not include support for pictures.
To send pictures you need to use MMS (Multimedia Messaging).
The clue is in the name really - "text messages" send text, "multimedia messages" send multimedia (text, pictures, audio & video)

Hi All - I sent an sms using my iphone 5 - It is PAYG and had no money in it. (stupidly)
It tried to send as an SMS but gave the 'green button reject message'.(no money)
Step 2 in this stupidity - the phone keeps trying to send the deleted text via SMS and wont stop notifying me of this. Totally ruining the functionallity of my phone, and more so totally annoying. All I want to do is stop the constant re-trying of sending the deleted SMS.
Any ideas?
Many Thanks!

Hi, many thanks for your help - Pressing and holding sleep/reset hasn't worked, the msg is still continually reporting it is failing to send. I can restore to a previous version however I'll lose my paid apps. Is there any way to work around this. I'm only concerned about one app - Epocam HD which I purchased last month. My last backup on PC is 4 March 13 - before I bought the paid app - Itunes advises me I'll have to re-pay to get my apps (app) back. Even though it advises that icloud backed up this morning at 1:30 am (which although it is before the text, I cannot manually select this restore).
What a mess!

I can't open any pictures sent to me SMS or IMS text on my iPhone 6.

I can't open any pictures sent to me SMS or IMS text on my iPhone 6. The text bubble shows downloading, but the pictures aren't opening.

close out of the message app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
then do a reset, no data loss. hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up then check message again.

HT3529 how do i find or save a media file sent via a sms message

how do i find or save a media file sent via a sms message

If you're talking about a photo, tap on the thumbnail in the Messages App, then at the bottom of the screen, you should see an icon that looks like a box with an arrow pointing out of it. Tap that, and you will have the option to save it.

I-phone 4 camera roll will not save pictures sent to me via text messages, it just gives me a message stating it is updating my library, then takes me back to the camera roll where the picture is no where to be found (other than in my original text message).

RESOLVED!!! I logged on to my Straight Talk online account, and did a Tech Chat. They immediately gave me a direct phone number and a Reference PIN number and asked me to contact their iPhone specialty support. I called (of course the gentleman's accent was very difficult for me to understand, but managed with asking continually for clarity). He walked me through several tests, setting changes and had me get on my wifi to obtain the latest APN settings. None of his efforts worked ad it was obviously NOT my Straight Talk iPhone 5, 64GB CDMA (no SIM) - it was something with their setting on their end on my account. I was placed on hold a few times and he would come back on to have me try to get on Safari and even Google... after the 3rd on-hold, he returned and asked me to try to use my data again without the wifi turned on and BINGO it worked... I still do not have my wifi turned on and I'm still receiving texts from YESTERDAY too while I was away from wifi service. IF you come across this issue - please call Straight Talk and/or log on to your Straight Talk online account and talk to an online customer service representative and get their direct line phone number for iPhone support and have your Reference PIN number available. Good Luck

Sms being sent via iMessage to none iOS phone

Hi,
My other half never gets my texts as my iphone is sending them via iMessage to here 80's Nokia.
How do I get my iPhone to realise that it should be sending them via sms?
I have seen lots of posts with the opposite problem.
Cheers
David

Yep, it can handle SMS.
It might not litterally be an 80's phone, but I guess I didn't intent for the comment to taken litterally.

Why can't i send photos via sms text?

Wondering why I can't send photos from my iphone to someone else's phone via sms text. every other phone i've had with a camera could do that. am i doing something wrong?

This doesn't sound very user friendly. I want a phone that's easy to use and doesn't require a ton of work arounds. Everybody else's phone can send and receive pictures just by knowing the other person's phone number.
They don't have to know how to send it via email.
They don't have to know what carrier the other person is using, or whether they switched carriers or not.
They don't have to go to a stupid website to receive a picture that someone sent them - a website that doesn't even work on iPhone, so they have to wait till they get home!
They don't have to tell their friends that because they have a cool new phone, they have to be treated specially so they can have fun too.
It makes iPhone users sound like a bunch of dorks with a phone which can't get pictures like everybody else can. I've been playing with mine for 4 days and it's a really great phone but I've already noticed that my crappy old Blackjack beats the pants off of it for sending pictures around without having to know who someone's cellular company is or what their email address is or whether their phone can send or receive email.

Images not being sent via text

My wife and I both have iPhone 4s. I don't recall ever trying this with previous models but recently with these 4s whenever we take a photo and try sending it to each other via SMS text, nothing happens. That is, no picture is received by the other person tho the sending phone implies that the image had been sent. When we take the photo it gives us the option to send it thusly so obviously the phone has that capability. Is there a step we're missing?

Thanks for posting this. So for awhile my mom and wife were receiving pictures from me via text from my Iphone. Then one day it just stopped. It is showing up on their end as an empty text. Please help. Don't know how to fix. I have tried many things now. This just suddenly happened.
Thanks.
