Why are my texts being received as picture message emails?

When I send a text from work to my wife from my iphone 4 she receives an email on her iphone 3GS and her ipad 2 from <my phone number>@media messaging.o2.co.uk. The email says 'Here's a picture message you've been sent from <my phone number>. The message has no other content even though it is indicated that there is an attachment.
Is this a problem with my network provider or are there some settings which need changing?

I'm also having this problem intermittently when the other phone is outside 3G coverage (on Edge or GPRS). iMessage and Send As SMS are on on both phones. This should be reproducable at home by turning cellular data off. Will check tonight.

    If you check Settings > Messages, do you have "Show subject field" turned on? If it is and you type any text in that field, your SMS will be sent as MMS.

  • Why Are My Text Align Buttons Grayed Out?

    My users are unable to center text when edited pages in CS3 and CS4. The standard paragraph alignment buttons are grayed out.
    All the users of my site have Admin role, and I have set up the role to allow unrestricted editing. And "Allow Users to Apply Styles"... At screenshot of some of my settings is attached. I don't see why Contribute is not allowing this basic element to work.
    Why Are My Text Align Buttons Grayed Out?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I experienced the very same issue, but found an interesting quick-fix that worked for us.
    Several of my webpage content managers reported that they could not change the text alignment in pages created using Dreamweaver nested templates. We use nested editable regions in order to restrict portions of the pages (i.e. banners and navigation menus) from being edited.
    I found that Contribute CS4 could realign text in some parts of the affected pages, but not others.
    Further exam revealed that Contribute could change the alignment on any text that was inside a table on those pages. If I inserted a table and then cut-n-pasted the problem text into the table, the text lost its style/formatting, but it could then have its alignment changed.
    Any text not inside a table could not have the alignment changed by Contribute and changing its style/formatting made no difference.
    One note though: It was interesting that after pasting the text into a table, if I selected a chunk of text, the alignment buttons grayed out again. However, if I simply clicked on the line of text (did not select it), the buttons remained active and the text alignment could be changed.
    I don't know why it is happening. The nested regions were working fine, or so I thought, until recently.
    The above is a quick-fix and got my page content managers back online, but I'm still searching for a long-term solution if anyone has one.
    Good luck...

  • SnippetPreview$.htm - Why are these not being deleted?

    I have the following files in my project folder:
    SnippetPreview$.htm
    SnippetPreview1$.htm
    SnippetPreview2$.htm
    SnippetPreview3$.htm
    SnippetPreview4$.htm
    I noticed them because they are not in Visual SourceSafe so they appear when I go to add files to VSS when I create new snippets. They contain the text of snippets I've created.
    I know they are harmless, but why are they not being automatically deleted from RH when no longer needed?
    Is this a setting or preference I can set?

    Sometimes temporary files are left behind. These are just files created on previewing a snippet and like any other temporary files are not deleted. Just delete them.

  • HT4515 why are my text messages all of a sudden in green and do not say delivered?

    why are my text messages all of a sudden in green and do not say delivered?  Also for the first time since I obtained the phone I went to use the headphones and the insert to headphones is very loose and I can connect for about 10 seconds then nothing, I do believe it is the jack that inserts into the phone or the phone receptacle is bad or the headphone piece that goes into the phone is bad it is not working is the main issues.  Thank you

    I should also mention we have 2 other iPhone users and 1 Samsung s5 user in my home not having the same problem.

  • Why are my podcasts being deleted from my iPhone every time I sync them?

    why are my podcasts being deleted from my iPhone every time I sync them?

    I also have this problem though it only seems to affect my iPod Nano (6th gen).  It does not seem to affect my iPhone (though now as I type this, I better confirm that as I haven't manually managed podcasts on my iPhone since the last iTunes updates).  I have iTunes set to "manually manage music and videos" (just like OP, I'd rather manage music and videos myself rather than construct playlists and have iTunes sync them), and under the "Podcasts" tab on my nano, I do not have "Sync Podcasts" checked.
    Is this something that has occurred since the last iTunes update?

  • Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously.

    Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously. This is a big problem which means all my windows -> iphone pictures are half black or glitched on the iphone. Also my songs are completely glitched. I have tried resyncing and different USB-ports.

    Same problem on Iphone 4s AND windows 7.  Really annoying that I can't have any music on my brand NEW device.

  • Why are my text messages showing up on my wife's IPhone 6 and her Text messages showing up on my iPhone 6?

    Why are my text messages showing up on my wife's iPhone 6 and her test messages showing up on my IPhone 6?

    its because you guys are using the same Apple ID on both devices , when you use the same it connects to iCloud/iMessages so when ever you get a text on any other iPhone with there iMessages on its going to show on both devices because its the same apple ID that you are using for your iMessages , you can fix that buy gating a new apple ID for one of you ,ore go to your system preferences then go in to your iMessages  remove your email from there make shore its only your number on there ,but the best why is to get another Apple ID.

  • Why are my texts sometimes blue(iPhone txt) and sometimes green(txt msg) within minutes of a conversation?

    why are my texts sometimes blue(iPhone txt) and sometimes green(txt msg) within minutes of a conversation?

    If the iPhone can't send the message as an iMessage (blue) it will instead send it as an SMS message (green).

  • Why are some text messages blue and some green

    Why are some text messages blue and some green?

    Blue text messages are iMessages (with other iOS and Mac users with iMessage enabled).
    Green are regular SMS messages to non-iPhone users and iPhone users with iMessage not enabled.

  • HT5661 why are some texts in blue and some in green

    Why are some texts on the I 4s phone in blue and some in green

    Hi cstack,
    Blue messages are iMessages (i.e., messages sent via Wifi to other Apple devices)
    Green messages are SMS messages (i.e., messages sent via your Cellphone to non-Apple devices, or when Wifi isn't available for Apple devices)
    P.S. Apple devices using iMessage only.
    Cheers,
