Why can't I send/receive photos via text message on my iPhone?
I have an iPhone 4S, which I bought unlocked and I use Straight Talk. I can't receive or send photos to contacts that don't have iPhones.
Can anyone tell me why this is, and help me get it working?
The first thing you should try to do is go to
Settings > Messaging > and see if MMS messaging is on or off make sure that it is on
another thing is do you have a data plan if you do then you are good to go i'm not to sure about if you don't have a data plan
the second step is go to
Settings > General > Cellular and make sure cellular data is on or off it should be on!

Thank you so much. Someone had turned cellular data off works perfect now…
It doesn't work for me! Any other options? I can't receive photos in my text messages any more and the other ones that I had disappeared! MMS is on. Cellular is on!

Still not working for me
I have iPhone 5s and I just started to have problems I can't send pictures through texts nor receive them
My iPhone 6S will send pictures only to other iPhones -- not to android phones - says MMS must be enabled but it IS enabled. What the heck?
I had the same trouble. Go to settings, phone, and the just add your phone number and save.
I did everything recommended above, I'm still unable to open pics an videos sent with text messages, very frustrating, an its just started yesterday. I also have a problem in receiving calls and voicemail with three of my contacts. Does my vm need to be rebuilt?
Try restarting your iPhone (any model) and if anything, backup your IMPORTANT files to your iMac or Windows PC and perform a factory data reset on your iDevice. Hope this helps you out!

- Why won't my 5c send a message as MMS when it's a long message to a non iPhone user? Whenever I type a LONG message to an SMS user (says Text Message in the messaging "box") my 5c won't convert to MMS and the recipient gets the message in dozens of out of order messages instead of the whole fluid message. I have MMS on in Settings. What can I do and why is it doing this?
- Why don't I receive alerts or a notification when I receive a text and I already checked my settings? I adjusted my setting and even put the ringer and notifications on and put the volume and ringer on and I receive no alert, no pop up, alert or notification when someone texts me. Why? This is the iPhone X! I went to the cell phone/ carrier store and they didn't help me. They said to go to the apple store or check the settings. I already adjusted the settings. So what do I do now?
- Why can't i send or receive text messages? I have an Iphone 3Gs, and just recently I have not been able to send or receive text messages from one contact. When I try sending a message it says "received" but when we talk through facebook or anything else they inform me that they never got the message, and its the same with their phone, I never get the messages. Its becoming a big hassle and I just want the problem fixed. Can anyone help me out?
- Why can't my iPhone send or receive pictures in text messaging? My dad bought me the iPhone 4S unlocked. I got the prepaid service at tmobile which was 50$ unlimited talk text and web. I can't send pictures during text messages and I can't receive them. If someone sends me a picture I don't get it, it's just blank. The little camera icon next to the text area to type is light grey indicating I can't press on it. I can only send or receive during iMessage. Please tell me why this is happening.
