Trouble sending group texts

having trouble sending and receiving group texts on iphone 4 running ios7. also having difficulty seending photo messages.

    I'm really sorry for this inconvenience with your group messages ba6yd1n0! Group Messages go through as MMS, (Multi Media Messages), which can only be transferred through our Mobile Network. They cannot be processed over WiFi. This is why you're getting this error. Regular messages, (texts/SMS), can be sent/received via WiFi, as you mentioned.
I hope this helps clarify what's going on.
Thank you,

  • Unable to send Group text from Nokia Lumia 520

    I also need to send group msg to about 100 people which was possible in Symbian, but in Lumia group limit is 25 (how ridiculous!)
    Now I have made several groups of 25 & send few mgs.
    But what I don't like is, group sms are shown in different thread, so when someone replies, his thread doesn't show the group msg so I can't make out to which msg I am getting reply.
    Earlier Symbian used to send group msg as individual sms so replies used to show all sms, sent & received. Symbian system was better for me.
    Using Nokia Lumia 1320.
    Also have Nokia E72 & Nokia N8.

  • My iPhone 6 Cannot recieve or send group text messages

    My iphone 6 cannot send or receive group texts. It was able to send and receive grout texts until the IOS 8.0.2 upgrade. A few texts from throughout the day did come in randomly in the middle of the night, but no other explanation. I have cycled both on and off the imessage and sms message feature while resetting the network settings. This accomplished nothing. This is becoming rather frustrating with all ese different issues.

    I've been seeing similar issues. Are you on T-Mobile, and did you turn on Wifi Calling? I found that once I turn that option on, I was not able to send group texts. Turning it off, and then Reset Network Settings would allow me to send group texts again. This of course, is not an ideal situation.

  • I have an iphone5 and cannot send group texts.

    Hoping for advice please. I have an iphone5 and cannot send group texts, it will only deliver if I send the text individually.
    I cannot send photos via text message and if someone sends me a photo or long text it comes through to my e mail. Why?
    Please help, I think they may all be connected.Thank you.

    I've noticed that this only happens when one or more of the recipients I enter has an iphone and at least one of the others does not. The system seems to fail when it tries to send an SMS text message and an iMessage. The frustrating thing is that I don't get a chance to try to just send all as SMS texts instead.
    The only way I found to get around this problem is to make sure that I send to two separate groups, one group with iPhones and another without. Two separate messages isn't ideal, and searching for who has an iphone and who doesn't is a pain, but... until they fix it, I'm afraid this is our only option.

  • My IPhone 6 plus won't send group texts.

    My IPhone 6 plus won't send group texts. It will if i delete the group and recreate the group but if i continue to send texts in that group it will only send to an Iphone acount and not other cell phone brands.

    Start with soft reset then reset network settings and a possible Sim card reseat. Careful they pop out when using an earring or paperclip to remove.

  • Cannot send group texts/messages or voice texts.

    I just bought my iPhone 6 Plus on December 27.  Starting today for some reason, I cannot send group texts (iMessages or SMS texts) or voice texts.  Please advise.

    This doesn't really help me as much; I know how to send texts, and I am able to do so to individuals.  It's just that I can't get group texts to go through.  I have service and am sending to both iPhone users and non-iPhone users.  Interestingly enough, a moment ago a particularly long text I tried to send to an individual non-iPhone user was not delivered.  Does anyone know if there is some lingering issue with messaging on the iPhone 6 Plus?  I have the latest iOS software update.

  • Can   i  send group texts  and have them be sent as indivuale texts so everybody does not see responses

    How to send group texts and have them sent as individual texts so everybody does not see responses?

    deref,   Group messaging is a great way to keep everyone in touch. I use them quite frequently. When you send a group message the replies will be sent to everyone. You can send them individually so people cannot see the replies.  RobinD_VZW  Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport  If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.

  • I know Imessaging between IOS 5 devices is free, but when sending group texts to both IOS 5 phones and nonIOS 5 phones, is it still free to those with IOS 5? The text bubble is green.

    According to Macworld it is a lowest common denominator situation. If any of the people on your list are not iMessage people then all the messages go out SMS and will count against your messages from your provider. Bummer IMHO, but that is the way it is.

  • Why can't I send group text messages on my Iphone 3GS any longer?

    I have been sending and receiving group text messages on my iphone 3GS for awhile and all of a sudden I am receiving "Message Send Failure" error messages when I try to send a group message.  I think I still get group messages but you can no longer see that it is a group message and who the group members are.  I turned the Group setting off and then back on in Settings and turned the phone off and back on with no improvement.

    Make sure your account is provisioned for messaging/texting.
    Also, Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging > On

  • Why can't i send group texts with iphone 4s?

    I've had my new iphone 4s for a few days and love it, but it won't let me send texts to more than one person at a time.  I can send individual texts just fine.  It will let me add the recipients and compose it but when i send, the send progress bar gets almost to the end and then stalls for about 1 min, then i get the red exclamation point and the option to retry which i do but it never works.  the group message option is set to ON but still it doesn't work.  Anyone else having this problem?

    Experiencing the same exact problem. Progress bar stops and red exclamation pops up. Have u figured anything out?

    Note: The little blue (>) will give you an option to remove the number/email from the device
    Note: Check this setting on any device(s) using the same Apple ID
