TS3672 why can't I send or receive photos in my messages?

Cannot send or receive photos messages on my iphone 4 version 6.1.3.  It all worked perfectly until about 2 months ago ( the phone is almost 3 years old). I received a couple of photos which had been sent 2 weeks previously!  but mostly I get the message to go online (Vodafone) and use a password they provide.  Have been to Vodafone about the problem, they supplied me with a new Sim card and said that would solve the problem but no such luck.  Really annoying!  Any suggestions/solutions gratefully received. Thanks.

    why can't i send and receive photos

    Very vague.
    Send them from E-mail?  MMS?
    What have you tried?  What happens?
    Could you send them before?
    Has anything changed?

    Why can't I send or receive picture messages on my iPhone 4s?

    Make sure that MMS is turned on in Settings. Sometimes that can get turned off during an update, if you recently did that. Next try would be a reset. If that doesn't help, then contact the carrier, as SMS and MMS are carrier specific functions.

    Why can't I send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad mini while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    With the Apple iMessage app, You can only Message with other iOS users - iPads, iPod Touch, iPhone users and Macs running Mountain Lion or higher. With your iPhone, you can send standard SMS text messages to any phone, including Android phones.
    The iPad cannot send SMS messages or receive them either.

  • HT201229 Why can't I send or receive text messages on my I pad.

    Why can't I send or receive text messages on my I pad.

    1. Messages on the iPad can only be sent to other iDevices
    2. They must also be registered with iMessage
    Note: The two above conditions must be met.

  • Why can't I send and receive text messages on my new 5c ?

    Why can't I send and receive text messages on my new 5c ?
    I can send imessages. I can sometimes send texts. But I cannot ever send picture texts. and I am not receiving texts.

        Antny,
    Yikes, this is no bueno let's get these messages back up and flowing. Are you able to send out regular text messages ok? Ensure your Picture Messages feature is turned on, follow these steps: Settings>Messages>MMS Messaging. Also ensure Send as SMS is turned on as well. If these features are turned on then try this: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings then retest. Keep us posted please.

    Why can't I send or receive text messages to non-iphone users

    Another thing you can try is to ensure that the setting for ( send as sms if imessage unavailable ) is turned on, this can be found in Settings : Messages. If this doesnt work you can also try changing the contact details to read mobile instead of iphone.
    That setting is not relevant to sending SMS messages to non-iPhones. It only affects what happens when an iMessage won't go through to an iOS device. And, what the phone number is labeled has no effect on anything. You could create a custom label "Rutabaga" and the SMS would still go through if the account was properly provisioned. Those labels are for human brain convenience only.

  • Cannot send or receive photos via txt messages?!?

    with my BB I was sending and receiving photos from all my children and other relatives. On my brand new Galaxy S4 no photos get sent or received. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Sorry, I have no suggestions for you.  I have sent many pics via txt message with no problems.  You might check to see how large your pics are.  There may be a limit on the size you can send by txt. 

  • Why can't I send and receive pictures?

    I have the 3G and it is my understanding that the update to allow a fix for picture MMS messages was done a long time ago. I did the update (along with my wife) and for some reason, I have never been able to send or recieve pictures? On the other hand, my wife does it just fine.
    I do get the option when clicking on pictures to send through MMS and I also have the camera icon when sending a text. So I can upload picture to MMS but I always get the dreaded red exclamation point when trying to send a picture. And I still receive the dreaded website and code to view pictures sent to me.
    I have no idea why I can do this and my wife can? Anyone have any ideas?

    True story. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3573
    Note: If your iPhone meets the system requirements, your wireless account may still need to be provisioned to send and receive MMS messages. Many carriers will automatically provision your wireless account for MMS when you first send an MMS message. Other carriers will provision customers' wireless accounts for MMS automatically in large groups at different times. If necessary, check with your carrier to confirm you are provisioned to send or receive MMS messages.

    I wonder if for some reason your's didn't get provisioned when you sent your first message. They may need to do it manually.

  • Why can't I send or receive iMessages on my iPhone?

    I've been using iPhones for about 5 years now and I've never found a problem with one that I couldn't fix until now and it's really starting to irritate me because no one has any idea whats going on. I just got a iPhone 4 from one of my moms friends because my last one broke and for some reason on this phone I can't use iMessage. I can use FaceTime and do everything else on my phone except for using iMessage. I have iMessage turned on and activated in the setting and I have linked my apple id but for some reason when I try and iMessage someone with an iPhone my messages will only send as texts. And when people try to iMessage me it says delivered on their phone but I get nothing on my phone. Could anyone help me out? I have tried all the trouble shooting steps on here and nothing has made any difference.

    yes i've tried both my wifi and my 3g network nothing works. ive been talking to apple the last few days and no one can fix the issue, they just keep telling me they'll call back the next day to try something else. i dont understand how i can facetime but im not getting the option to send or receive imessages when facetime and imessage are used on the same server

  • Why can't I send or receive email on iPhone?

    Why ant I send or receive email?

    Well, I'm not real sure. You would need to provide more details about what happens when you try? How did you set up the email, who is the provider, what errors you get when you try to get or send mail?

  • Outlook 2010: why can't I send or receive email?

    Cannot send or receive email through Outlook 2010
    Running MS Office 2010 Professional Plus on a Dell N5010 w. Intel Core 13 proc. and 4 GB RAM.
    Recently discovered my "sent" mail was not being received. I found it all unsent in the "Outbox." A few days later, I stopped receiving email through Outlook. the Outlook ikon: click on it; the ikon shows box w. red X, annotation "working
    offline."
    How do I restore full functionality of Outlook?

    Hi,
    Which type of email account are you using? POP3, IMAP or Exchange?
    Please open your Outlook and click on Send/Receive
    tab, check if the Work Offline button is highlighted. If so click the button to deactivate it. Then, restart Outlook to check the result.
    If Outlook was still stuck in Offline mode, please try to log into your webmail and check if you can send and receive emails using that site. If you can't, please contact your email service provider for help.
    If you can get and send mail on the website, the mail server’s fine. Please try to install all patches for your Outlook. We can also try to create a new mail profile in Control Panel and configure your email account in the new mail profile to check if it
    helps. To do this, please refer:
