Why won't my iPhone 4 send pictures with messaging?

Me and my brother got our iPhone 4's on january 3 2013. About 1 month ago we started having a problem with not being Able to send pics with texts. Now I what ever I try I can't send them I upgraded my phone to iOS6 and that seems to be the problem if anyone can help or tell me how to uninstall ios6 then I'd be super super thankful
Thanks
Sheila

Like above, you cant remove iOS 6 so you need to look at resolving the issue instead.
go to settings>messages> and make certain MMS is selected (multi-media messages - aka picture messages)
If you are still having issues, I would recomend going to settings>general>reset>then reset network settings - this will only reset the way your phone tries to send messages with the service provider.
If still having issues, contact your carrier to see if you have text messaging issues with your carrier before restoring your phone.
Good Luck!

always worth clearing all pairings from vehicle end and resetting network settings on iPhone as explained in the doc

Can't send pictures with Messages, but I can receive them.

While chatting with a friend I was trying to send him a picture using the native Mountain Lion chat client Messages.
If he sends me a picture I first see a large grey rectangle with a progress indicator which gets replaced by the sent picture once it finished loading.
If I try to send a picture it appears in the chat immediately but then gets replaced by the file name. He only sees the file name the whole time.
Both of us have Mountain Lion installed and use Messages with firewalls disabled.
We both have a googletalk account and were using that as our Jabber Messages account.
Audiochat and Videochat works without problems. Text messaging works without problems.
The only issue is me not being able to send pictures using Messages, no matter if I drag the picture into the client with finder or with iPhoto.
Is Messages using any special ports that need to get routed through?

HI,
Both of you should use the Window Menu to open the File Transfer Window.
You may list the item as "Failed"
Uploaded with Skitch!
The other end may say "Waiting".
If they do say "waiting" then your Buddy should open Activity Monitor (Applications/Utilities) and find the IMTransferAgent and Quit it from inside Activity Monitor
The four lower items were testing between a Jabber account and a Google ID ( File appears twice as the "To" and "From" in this case)
I do find my Google account tends to be the most unreliable in File Transfers or Pics-in-Chats

Why won't my iPhone send messages to another non-iPone?

My iPhone will send A text message to another iPhone, but fails when a message is sent to any non-iPhone. Help?

Check Settings>Messages, turn Send As SMS to On. If it's already on you may want to check with your carrier to be sure that your messaging plan is properly provisioned.

Why won't my iPad send pictures ?

My iPad has been acting up lately with not being able to send pictures . I can receive them and send messages period fine, but when it comes to sending pictures there a load but it stops like 3/4 away from sending . It's becoming very frustrating and I have noticed it start doing this since I update the software to IOS 6! Please help me . Also it does send email through any other app or site and through email but ONLY NOT in iMessage. I have seen many forums where people have the same problem and Apple surely needs to find a solution :(

Why won't my iPhone 6 charge with any other charger but the one it came with? please help!

My iPhone 6 won't charge with any other charger, can anyone explain why?

Make sure both the charger and connector are certified and that they are in good working order. Test them with another iPhone if possible. If the charger is working, then the problem might be the lighting connector port. Check and see if it is dirty. If not then there might be a hardware problem. Take the phone in to an Apple Store or authorized service provider for evaluation and possible replacement. Take the cable and charger as well.

Why won't my iPhone 4 connect with my Mac Book Pro?

My Mac Book can see my iPhone, but cannot connect to it. Also, my bluebud x Jaybirds work fine with my iPhone 4, but are not seen by my Mac Book.

Well snozdop as you can see, I am new around here. In most online forums you can "bump" an old thread and get new responses, rather than making a whole new thread about the same question.
So I was hoping by pointing out the fact that Panicazi (who seems to have to deleted his profile, maybe because of people like you) said that "This solved my question" when in fact it didn't, because you asked...
"For what purpose are you trying to connect the iPhone to the Mac via Bluetooth?"
and then said
"Apple have never said "why" their implementation of Bluetooth is the way it is.
However, there are over 20 different Bluetooth profiles - not every device supports, or needs to support every profile. Some Bluetooth profiles would be useless on some Bluetooth devices.
File transfers over Bluetooth are slow. For the multi-gigabytes media files an iPhone it would be impractical for file transfers. USB 2 is many times faster."
didn't answer why his "...Mac Book can see my iPhone, but cannot connect to it..." or the rest of his question; someone might respond with an answer, rather than a rude comment.

Why won't my iPhone 5S sync with my computer?

I have the grey-dotted circle issue that has been addressed in other discussions before (even though I did not get a straight answer from there). Whenever the iPhone 5S (which is running iOS 8) is plugged in, it says that X amount of songs are greyed out in the 'On my phone' page. Not quite sure how to fix that.
However, whenever I try to 'apply' changes, and sync to the computer rather than iCloud (which by the way is ridiculously slow as well---icloud sync), it will go to 'step 4' or 'step 6' where it's applying changes, or finishing up, and just stays there. It freezes.
This all happened when we tried to sync a new playlist to the device. It said in the play list that there were 250+ songs, whereas only 56 transferred to the phone....(this is where the grey dotted circles in the 'on my phone' screen comes in) Some of the music in our library is older and has been transferred from computer to computer over the years. I've tried de-authorizing the computer then reauthorizing since it said we couldn't authorize more than 5 devices to the same library but that was to no-avail.
We have upgraded our iMac to Mavericks, iPhone to iOS8 and iTunes to 11.4. We rebooted everything yet we are still having issues.
Some help would be appreciated. This device will be used as a music source for a marathon within the next week and we'd like to get the device up and running for the runner who will be in the marathon.
Thank you in advance.

Why won't Verizon iPhone send iMessage when on call and Wifi?

I am new to Verizon and am aware of the simultaneous voice and data limitation, however I was under the impression that wifi would work normally while on a phone call, and it does.
However I am finding that when on a phone call, and successfully on wifi, iMessages do not get sent. They fail.
Anyone else get this? Can you please test it?
I have a iphoen 5 on 6.0.1 already BTW but have no idea if it happened before with 6.0.
Brian

He is correct. All data is in one giant pool once you are on Wifi. The prioritization is first come first serve, unless the phone is implementing some sort of QoS at the packet level, which is very unlikely. This is the same way a full computer works, everyone sends their data broken up into small packets (Each packet is ~1k in size at maximum.) All of those packets just go into a queue in the order they were sent, and the modem handles sending them out.
The question is if iMessage is really going over the standard data routing, or if they are still using some sort of SMS wrapper. If its just data, it shoud send/recieve without issue regardless of what other data applications are running.

HT201401 why won't my iphone 5 pair with ANYTHING?

Worked fine yesterday with Blackberry car speaker, and with harmon Kardon speaker receiver.Today will not discover any device, including Macbook air and iMac, which both discover and pair with each other. Have turned phone off and on several times, turned Bluetooth in Settings off and on a dozen times, in various combinatins with Personal Hotspot, WiFi, and airplane mode.
I am surrounded by 11 devices, all in "discoverable" mode, yet none are recognized by my iPhone.

This is not and has never been a feature of iOS.

Why won't my iphone 4s sync with my mac after downloading ios 7 and updating iTunes?

Your iPhone will act as a camera, in iPhoto. Open iPhoto, and you should see your iPhone listed in the left hand column, under "devices".
