Let's get this resolved newenglandgirl65! Are you receiving a specific error message? Does this only happen when attempting to send a group picture message? Please ensure MMS is on in Settings>Messages and there are no blocks. Also, please power the phone off and remove/insert the sim card and send a test picture message to yourself and share. Thank you.

newenglandgirl65, let's make sure we get to the bottom of this. Does this happen with every number or contact you attempt to message? Are you receiving any specific error messages? Any changes to the device software such as new applications? Any changes to your Apple ID account?

After I updated to iOS 8.1 it won't text picture messages to non-iphone users. Other iPhones receive them

My phone just sits and turns on and off constantly about two to three times a day.  It won't work half the time since the update.

I want to make sure you can pictures to anyone you like, newenglandgirl65! Please turn WiFi off on your iPhone, and attempt to send your picture message again. Let us know if this allows the picture to go through!

Thank you,
