Unable to send media via iMessage from iOS 8 to phones using iOS 7

A few of my friends still have iOS 7 and I'm noticing that whenever I try and send an image to their phone via iMessage it always fails.  Anyboy else experiencing this?

  • Unable to send photo via iMessage

    Hi Guys,
    I am having some issues sending photos via iMessage between my fathers iPhone 5s and my iPhone 6.
    my fathers iPhone 5s can send me photos but when I try and send him a photo it fails with "not delivered", however sending normal text iMessage between the two phones works fine.
    and another weird thing I can send photos to other people's iPhone's ????
    so is the issue with my iPhone 6 or his iPhone 5s ?

    Hi jake85au,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are experiencing an issue where you cannot send MMS from the Messages application to your father’s iPhone 5s only. In this situation, I would recommend reading over and working through the suggested troubleshooting steps located in the attached article.

  • HT1688 I cannot send pictures or videos from my I phone 3gs.  I use to be able to by not any longer.

    I am unable to send video and pictures from my I phone.   I was able to but now I cannot.   Can someone please help.

    I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but I'll give a few examples of what I think you might be looking for.
    I am running iOS 5 on my iPad and Pages '08 on my iMac.
    1. I created a Pages file on my iPad and emailed it to me by selecting the wrench --> share and print -->email document -->chose Pages as the format.  I collected the file from my email and attempted to open it in Pages '08. The message I received was that I needed a newer version of Pages.  True enough, but I'm sure that iWork '12 will come out this summer so I'll hold off on that purchase. What I did to solve this problem was to send the file in Word format instead. When I opened it with Pages '08, I had to tweak the format a bit, but it worked. Perhaps your trouble is that you need to upgrade. You could also send the file in PDF format.
    2. I created a file in Pages '08 and sent it as an attatchment by email to my iPad. I collected the file from my email on the iPad, then clicked on the attatchment.  It opened in Pages for iPad with no problem. If this is the senario you are having trouble with, then I suggest you first send a test file, and if that doesn't work, make sure all your files are backed up then delete the app and reinstall it.  WARNING!!! when you delete the app, all files will be deleted as well.  Make sure you have current and accurate backups that you can access before taking this step.  Files saved in iTunes may not be accessable other than to the iPad.  Make sure you can open the files on your computer BEFORE taking this action.

  • IPhone 4 IOS 7 - unable to send photos via text

    I have been unable to send photos via text since updating to IOS7.  All of my settings are up to date and this problem occurs on wifi, 3G and makes no difference if I send the photo via message first or from my camera.  I have read all the troubleshooting guides and nothing has provided a permanent solution.  Resetting the network seems to work for a limited time before the photos come up with the same "not delivered" icon again. 
    Does anyone know why the reset would work and then stop working if I haven't switched my phone off?
    Thanks

    You may have to backup and restore through iTunes. Have you contacted your carrier about this since this feature is carrier-provided?

  • TS2755 Sending pictures via iMessage - "undelivered"

    Hi,
    having iPhone 5 with iOS 7 (the newest one) and having problem with sending pictures via iMessage. The picture is usually sent and marked as "delivered" but after few seconds it´s showed again as "undelivered" with red exclamation mark. I have tried to reinstall the iOS, I changed the phone at all (like to different piece of device) and the problem is still there.
    This is happening as well when someone is sending pictures to me - shows them the exclamation mark as well despite the picture is usually already delivered.
    Many thanks for your opinions what can I do...

    Hello there, Martinacep.
    It seems you were referred to us from the very article that provides some troubleshooting recommendations for issues with sending attachments via MMS:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    To begin, follow these initial steps:
    If you can't send and receive MMS
    You will need these to send and receive MMS:
    An iPhone 3G or later
    iOS 3.1 or later
    A cellular data connection (MMS isn't available if you're using only Wi-Fi)
    A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You might need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact (Contact your carrier for more information.)
    A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network that is different from your billing cellular provider's network (Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.)
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps
    Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
    Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
    Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
    Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you're roaming on a cellular provider network that is different from your billing provider's network.
    Make sure that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar of your iPhone.
    Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
    Make sure that you can send and receive SMS. If you can't send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above. MMS might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
    Restart your iPhone.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    Remove your SIM card and insert it again.
    If the issue persists, then follow the section entitled "If you still can't send or receive MMS, follow these steps" that follows the one above in the article.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

    Thank you very much.

    Not sure what causes the problem. I do not wish to reboot my iphone everytime when it happens.
    Seems like ios7 gm issues.
    Never had this problem on the beta.
    Anyone have any resolution to this?

    iMessage is Activated.
    Facetime is Activated.
    Don't know what is preventing me from sending over iMessage.
    Receiving is no problem. Even during the the time I was trying to send.

  • Lumia 620: Unable to send pictures via 'Facebook C...

    Hi!
    I am unable to send pictures via facebook chat. In the 'attach' option, it does show 'photo, video, location, etc..' but I can select only the 'location' component. I was wondering if there was some settings that should be changed or that the mobile itself does not allow such activities. Please advise. 
    Thank you.

    Thank you for replying.
    Yes, I am using the official FB app from Microsoft. I tried the FB Beta, but I still can't send pictures. Take a look at the screenshot. I can only choose 'location'

  • I am running ios7 and cannot send pictures via iMessage to only one contact but they can send me pictures. What is going on?

    I am having issues sending pictures via iMessage to only one of my contacts. They can send me pictures through iMessage so why are mine coming back undelivered?

    Have managed to get it working.
    It might be as simple as switching the other phone completely off, and resetting it...
    I say this because I have no idea how I finally managed to get it working again.  I tried so many things.  Removing all the iMessage addresses.  Sending messages from the computer, iPad...etc and found that the weakest link was my wife's phone. It wasn't receiving iMessage pictures from ANYONE (not just me).  That allowed me to narrow down the possibilities somewhat.
    Let me know if simply resetting the other person's phone fixes the problem.

  • I can no longer send  texts via "Messages" from my Mac to non-Apple phones.

    After the latest Mac OS upgrade, my "Messages" app stopped sending and receiving texts from non-Apple phone users. Has anyone else experienced this interruption?

    Hi buribe215,
    It appears you are unable to use SMS relay, a Continuity feature in Yosemite. The following article provides basic troubleshooting steps you may want to explore:
    Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite - Apple Support
    If a Continuity feature like Handoff, phone calls, Instant Hotspot, or SMS messages isn't working the way you'd expect, make sure your devices meet the requirements. Then check your settings.
    Check System Requirements
    Make sure your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac meet the system requirements for Continuity, and for the specific features you want to use.
    Check your settings
    Check the following settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
    Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.
    Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
    Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps and make sure Handoff is on.
    Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
    Check the following settings on your Mac:
    Go to the Wi-Fi icon at the top of your screen and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
    Make sure your Mac and iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi on your iOS device and compare the name of the network with the Wi-Fi network on your Mac.
    Go to the Bluetooth icon at the top of your screen and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
    In System Preferences > General, select “Allow Handoff between this Mac and your iCloud devices.” If you don't see this setting, your Mac may not support Handoff.
    Open the FaceTime app, go to FaceTime > Preferences and turn on “iPhone Cellular Calls.”
    Go to System Preferences, and sign out and then sign in again to your iCloud account.
