Why can't my iPhone 4S send video messages via text? it only does so thru iMessage, amnd i can only receive them from my friends iPhone, but can't send any bk.

it only does so thru iMessage. My friend (with another iphone) sends me video thru text message (not imesage) but my phone doesn't send videos thru. i already restarted the phone twice..... anyone know how to fix this its frustrating the heck out of me

It might depend on how long/large the video file is. I'm not sure but there might be restrictions on the size of the file you plan on sending via sms. Are you able to send send those same video files that you received back to your friends?

I can receive emails from three different accounts but can't send a photo. It says the server doesn't allow relaying???

I can receive emails from three different accounts but can't send a photo from them. It says the server doesn't allow relaying???

I have a hard time describing this exactly, so I copied this from another thread. This seems to be a recent issue with AOL email accounts on the iPad the past few days. I have two AOL accounts and they work fine. See if this works for you.
+If you cannot send, under the smtp server your user name and password must be entered even though the prompt tells you it is optional. As a mobile device the port used is different from the one I would normally use if at home and therefore validation is required by use of the password. The normal port for the smtp server is 110 but to use on a mobile unit like the iPad port 587 is used.+
The big thing is to make sure that your username and password are filled in - Select your email account in the Mail setting and tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Outgoing Mail Server and then tap on the arrow next to smtp server under the Primary Server and fill in the information in there.
Some times you have to resort to deleting the account and starting over again.

How can I simply send audio messages via text, not just to people who have iphones, even basic Nokia phones allow this function? Am I missing something here? IPHONE 6

How do I on IPHONE 6 have audio message option not just have the option it seems for other people with Iphones. Even Nokia phones have this very BASIC function/? Also how can you BULK DELETE Emails, I get hundreds of junk ones per day, and simply want to go, Select ALL or SELECT ALL READ and then press DELETE ONCE not hundreds of times????

No, basic Nokia phones do not, and have never had a function to easily send audio messages universally. SMS is a carrier feature and uses a very basic transfer mechanism and works only for short, 160-character messages. Through software, some phones later allowed you to type longer messages that the device then broke up seamlessly and sent as multiple SMS messages. MMS is another carrier service developed to be able to transport multimedia like audio and pictures. Again, very basic transfer and usually slow and low quality. Both of these are again, operator services. Your iPhone can send those messages to non-iPhone users using standard carrier services.
On the other hand, your iPhone Messages app uses your iPhone data plan - not unlike your home Internet service - to transfer audio, video and images through Apple's iMessage service. Other services exist that do something similar - WhatsApp for example - which also requires both the sender and recipient to use their app for the service to work.
As for email, Meg is correct. Your email provider is the first line of defense against spam. You should adjust your filters. That said, iOS Mail app had a delete all function, but not in places where it can do more harm than good - i.e. the Inbox. It is present only in the Junk and Trash folders where, presumably, your email provider or you have already been through some decision making process and deemed those emails acceptable to be deleted en masse.

I am unable to send picture messages via text.

I only got my blackberry q10 last week. Have switched over from orange to vodafone. From a curve to the q10. My contacts have not all come over to the new phone and I find out today that pictures ain't sending via text. Works fine via whatsapp though. I am able to receive pictures though. Please help!!

Depending on your provider. Have them give you in the Message Centre/MMS gateway field:
MMSC URLf the text settings.

Logic docent receive signal from my tascam 1800 but can send signal out

This is my first time using Logic and a mac but im not new to recording. Ive been through every tutorial and i got it to wrk once but i dont remember how. Please help.

Do you have a 13" model? I believe (I could be wrong) that the 2012 13" model only supports line in, no line out. You used to be able to switch the port to in or out but I don't think that feature is available in newer models (again, I could be wrong - I don't have a 13" to test).

Can't get Send Video Message under conversation tab to be black

Put in new contact and when I try to video call can't get thru...I see under the conversation tabb that Send Video Message is greyed out. How do I get it to black to be able to send a message?

It seems to be an ongoing issue the last couple of days..there's a few posts already discussing it in the forum. I found that if I sent the photos from my verizon acct on the iphone, it uploaded to the gallery fine..so it's a .mac account problem i think. Try it through another acct and I don't think you'll have a problem. It had always worked fine for me sending from my mac account until this weekend.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Why can't I send a text to a contact from my I-pad but can send to that contact from my I-phone?

Why can't I send a text to a contact from my I-pad but can send to that same contact on my I-phone

Are you saying you are successful in sending text messages to Android users from your iPad? I doubt you can do that as iPad does not SMS, which is what a cell phone does, but iPad is not a cell phone. The Message App in iPad was designed to let you send messages to other iOS based devices.
There are Apps you can get from the App Store, like TextFree, which will assign a number to your account, but from iPad you can text all your contacts regardless of type of device. You will however need to let everyone you message with know what number a message would come from as it won't come from your cell number.

TS2755 Does anyone know why: when using Messages on my iPad, a cannot send a message with only text on it? Strange though, I can send a message with text AND a photo??

Trouble sending video message

I have the HTC Rezound. So far I hate it. I was talked into it by the employees at Verizon. I wanted the iPhone. They assured me this was a better phone which was compatible with my MAC. My MAC doesn't even recognize my phone when I plug it in to it.
Anyway, I am told by HTC that I cannot sent videos unless I use the lowest resolution (which you can't even see because the quality is so poor). I have tried downloading all kinds of applications to help send video messages and still cannot do this. I had no problem with my old non-smart phones. You would think that a more expensive "smart" phone I could do something so simple. I wish I had got the iPhone.

kdinger - demmo86rt is correct. What you want to do is set the camera/camcorder resolution to MMS. You can choose 320 x 240, but your video can be no longer than 3 seconds. In this case, MMS resolution is the way to go. The reason it looked better on your older phone is due to the screen resolution of those older devices. They were closer to that resolution, than what you are using now. The Rezound's display outputs at a resolution of 720 x 1280. (720p) It's pretty much the same as viewing a non HD channel on your HD television. That same channel looked better on your old set versus your new set. The HD video you take on your phone will of course shine on your phone and on your HD tv. Your video message can be about a minute long. You can send a video message with a video size of 1200KB or a bit over 1MB.
With regards to Mac connectivity you should be able to connect it, as I have been able to mount my Rezound my iMac. Are you plugging it in with the original USB cable, and then lowering the notification bar and selecting mass storage mode from your USB menu?
Let us know!
Thank you everyone and take good care.

I transferred my 3GS photos onto my new iphone 5 ust to look at them. Now I am running out of storage. I need to save them to a computer so I can delete them from my phone. How can I do this?

Hey bizteacher,
Thanks for the question. Do you still have access to the iPhone 3GS? If so, follow these steps:
iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

You could also follow these steps on your new iPhone 5, so long as the pictures are stored in your Camera Roll (as opposed to being synced to your phone).
Thanks,

Cannot send multiple photos via text on iPhone 6

iPhone 6: I am trying to send multiple pictures via text message (through the Photo app) to someone who does not have an Apple device, therefore I am sending it as an MMS. However, I receive an error message stating, "iMessage needs to be enabled to send this message." This is confusing for two reasons:
1. I DO have iMessage enabled.
2. I am not trying to send it via iMessage (as the recipient is a non-Apple user) so why am I being prompted to send it via iMessage?
How do I fix this?

What happens if you open a message and then copy multiple pictures into it (rather than doing it from the Photo app)?
Thanks

I have downloaded IOS7 on my iPhone and all calendar events have disappeared. The general functions of the calendar have changed and are definitely not 'user friendly'. How can I retrieve my calendar events. Will Apple improve the calendar function

I have downloaded IOS7 on my iPhone and all calendar events have disappeared. The general functions of the calendar have changed and are definitely not 'user friendly'. How can I retrieve my calendar events. Will Apple improve the calendar function or revert to the previous system. Even the typing function on IOS 7 is faulty - very slow to respond to the keyboard. I no longer enjoy using my iPhone. Can anyone assist. Thank you

Very strange! All of my calendar events have reappeared. This has happened one week after downloading iOS 7
The calendar however, is not easy to use.
The typing function on the phone has become even slower. Have to wait for each letter to show on screen.
