Why are videos sent from an iPhone 4 via texting so tiny?

They are about 1.5" by 1" which is ridiculously small. A friend of mine has an older LG slider phone that sends higher quality videos via texting.
What's up?

Yea, the icons are small, then when you tap to watch it, it opens up to about 1.5" x 1" in size. Nowhere near full screen (maybe 1/4 of the screen)

  • Why does emoticons sent from my iphone 4s does not show on other phones

    why does emoticon sent from my phone does not show on other phones

    iOS emoticons are Unicode characters that need a certain set of glyphs to be able to be displayed—think of it as a missing font not displaying correctly. If the device you send them to doesn't have the "font", it can't show it.
    That's just the way it is.

  • Why are my contacts from my iPhone not syncing?

    I'm entering new contacts in my iPhone, and after syncing, those new contacts are not in my address book on my Mac.

    I recommend storing your contacts in iCloud and using iCloud contacts both on your Mac and your iPhone.

  • Why are video downloads from Itunes so slow?

    I just purchased Season 2 of Downton Abbey.  Have been waiting over an hour, and still do not have even the first episode.  Terribly frustrating.  What is the problem?

    The import setting is for CDs you already have or if you had WMA files and were converting them into iTunes. Downloads off the net are almost always in MP3 format and songs bought off iTunes are in the AAC format (A compressed format just like MP3). I wouldn't worry about it much. If there songs you bought on iTUnes, AAC is a very good sound format and (Far as I know) are just like CD quality
    I have bought one or 2 albums in a store on CD and off iTunes in ther AAC format and I can not tell a diff in neither

  • Videos sent from  iPhone are vertical

    Videos sent from an iPhone are vertical.  How do I rotate to horizontal?

    Videos sent from an iPhone are vertical.  How do I rotate to horizontal?
    QT 7 Pro can rotate the orientation setting which can then be saved back to the original file. Thereafter, if the file is player in a QT player or app based on the QT player, the file will play correctly as rotated while non-QT based players not recognizing the changed rotation will play the same as the original file. However, be advised that rotating the orientation does not change a video taken in a portrait subject orientation to a landscape subject orientation—i.e., it merely rotates how the display is viewed. If you wish to transform a portrait subject view to a landscape subject view, you will have to crop & mask (only works for old tech players) or crop & re-compress the file (works with both old & new tech players) the source content. Therefore, it is always recommended that you record your content in the mode (portrait or landscape) you wish to use for final viewing and rotate the view only if required for the target player app.

    Someone actually responded to me in another thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16418849#16418849
    Told me to try unchecking the box to sync Photos.
    Do a sync.
    Then check the box.
    And sync again.
    Going to try that now. Let me know if it works for you James

    how can I find our photos on our iPad they are not in photo stream but have been sent from our iPhone over icloud

    Hi...
    Tap the Photos icon in the Dock at the bottom of of the screen.
    If you don't see the photos there, tap Settings > iCloud
    Turn Photo Stream off then back on then restart your iPad.
    Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears.  Slide to power off.  After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on

    emails have been sent from my iphone and they are not from me.  what do I do to secure this doesn't happen again?  I've already changed password

    I have this problem too, it's called "spoofing" aparently.
    There isn't much you can do except change your email address which is a huge problem if like me you have an Apple one and can't change it without losing your whole iTunes and App purchase history which is a billiantly stupid bit of design on Apple's part.
    There's some interesting stuff here: http://www.bluehostforum.com/showthread.php?132-how-to-stop-spoofed-email-addres ses
    but I don't think there's much chance of applying it to iCloud but I am not an expert.

    Some SMS conversation are des appearing from my iPhone.. Why? How to catch them back? Camilla

    Check under Settings > iCloud to see if the Contacts switch is ON (green side showing). If it's already on, switch it off for 30-60 seconds, then back on again. Your contacts should start showing up shortly.

  • Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    This morning I woke up thinking that I should turn off my iPhone and then call it from a land line.  If the problem is the network then there would be a delay before I heard ringing.
    I turned my iPhone off and called it.  Right away I heard my message.
    I turned my iPhone back on and called it.  It rang right away!
    So, did Virgin Mobile fix the problem or did turning my iPhone off fix the problem?
    I don't know, but I'll take either.  I do know that Virgin Mobile said it would be four days to check the problem.  Did the problem get fixed yesterday when the four business days were up.  I do know that I've had my iPhone on for a long, long time.  Did upgrading to 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 cause the problem and turning my iPhone off reset my iPhone?
    If you have delayed ringing problem and turning your iPhone off and on again resolved it, please post a note here.
    P.S. I did call Virgin Mobile and its records show the investigation is still open.  I hope my points get passed on to the investigators.
    P.P.S. Reading my notes, I had turned my iPhone off and on last week.  Maybe it's all the phase of the moon.
