  • HT3529 why cant i send picture messages?

  • HT1688 why cant i send picture messages any more after upgrading to IOS 6

    Yesterday my iphone for some odd reason turned to reovery mode and I was forced to restore&update my iPhone to the iOS 6. Now I can no longer send picture messages. i would like to go back to iOS 5.1 because the 6 is also draining out my battery and also for some reason my phone, again like yesterday, went into Recovery mode!  It is really fustrating. I spoke with AT&T and I am still on  the unlimited SMS&MMS plan. I dont know what the cause is of all these issues but I hope someone can fix it fat because every restore takes up 3-4 hours

    I've never been able to share FaceBook posts nor seen the option using the iOS FaceBook app regardless the FaceBook app and iOS version. I can Like and I can Comment, and if I select a link or video to view under iOS 6, I can use the Share option for the link or video, but not for a post.

  • WHY CANT I RECIEVE PICTURE AND MUSIC VIA BLUETOOTH ON THE IPHONE5

    why cant i receive pictures, music, videos via bluetooth from other devices on the iphone 5

    Then return your phone.  Have you ever actually USED bluetooth file sharing?  It's as slow as molasses.  Do you know how long it would take to transfer one photo taken by your iPhone?  Seemingly forever.  This is why Apple doesn't support this.
    Apple does support BT where it makes sense, and where the slow BT speed doesn't matter:  BT headphones, BT for car handsfree units, etc. 

  • Why cant i receive certain picture messages on my LG Chocolate Touch?

    i have the lg chocolate touch, i use to receive picture messages perfectly fine last week. but now, i can only receive messages from a few ppl because it wont load. and it takes a long time to send also.

    Try deleting old text messages, sent and received.  How many pictures do you have stored on the phone? (Does the chocolate have an SD card?)  I'm thinking it may be a memory issue and deleting old text messages may free enough memory to allow new messages to  be received.  Once you have deleted, pull the battery and then reinsert and restart the phone to be sure everything is cleared from the cache.
    The pictures being sent may also be too large or too high a resolution, depending on the the camera the sender is using.

  • Why am I receiving picture texts as text messages and not iMessages?

    Why I am receiving pictures sent to my messages as texts but not an imessage? I know the person who's sending it also has an iPhone 4s, but everytime she sends me a picture I need to wait till I enable 3g before i receive it.  I have wi-fi all day at work but I disable 3g cause sprints 3g network is useless at my work.  No point keeping it on, but when she attempts to send me a picture from her iPhone I receive after I leave work and turn on 3g.  Does any one have an idea what exactly may be going on? Shouldn't I receive the picture text as an iMessage since I have wi-fi on all day...?  Thanks everyone

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

    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.

  • I bought an unlocked iphone 5 with 32mb especially so I could use any wireless carrier that I wanted to.  Why does apple hold me prisoner to use only the carriers that apple wants?????  The only thing I can't do is send and receive picture messaging.

    I specifically bought and paid for an unlocked iphone 5 from APPLE so that I could use any wireless carrier I wanted to.  I have been paying ATT WAYYY too much money the last 20 years.  But for some reason APPLE wants to keep me from using any wireless carrier - and I can only use the carriers that APPLE will let me.  WHY????  I paid my money!!  I expected a lot more than I got.  The only thing I can't do is send or received picture messages, but it makes me so Mad that I can';t do that!!!

    If you bought an unlocked iPhone then it will work with any carrier but will work only under the restrictions or requirements the carrier sets for its customers.  Apple has nothing to do with that.  You are describing a problem of restricted access created by the carrer.  If you cannot carry out the functions you want, talk to the carrier and see what limits they are placing on you.  An unlocked iPhone is fully capable of all functions the carrer allows.

  • Why won't my iPhone 5 send or receive picture messages?

    I recently purchased a new iPhone 5 on Vodafone, since I've had it I've been unable to send or receive picture messages.
    I have rang Vodafone several times and each time they reset and send through the correct settings to my phone. Each time also not being successful.
    I spoke with a lady from Vodafone this morning and she claimed it was a problem with the iPhone 5 model and not being able to pick up 3G aswell as the 4/4S models.
    This massively disappoints me as I love the apple products and was looking forward to upgrading to the 5, now I wish I stuck with the 4S.
    Will there be an update or some kind of instruction to fix this issue?

    Have you called AppleCare?
    No, it doesn't have anything to do with picking up 3G at all. I sent at least 5 pictures back and forth last night on my iPhone 5 with another person who has an iPhone 5.
    You do have MMS turned on? And you are connected to cell data?
