Hi!

I have an iphone 3gs which will send photos through mms but not videos. I have cellular data turned on and wifi turned off, and have reset all the mms settings. Does anyone have any ideas to fix this please?

Most videos will be too big to send via MMS. Use email instead.

Hi

Have you tried using iMessage if your sending material to another iPhone.

Apple link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3529

If not you may need customer service on 202 contract or 4445 Payg to re provision your account for mms.

Alternatives to mms and cheaper are what's app and viber but the other parties need them downloaded too.

I've tried sending through Whats app with no success. The phone i'm sending the videos to isn't an iphone, so I can't use iMessage

@Anonymous You might also consider uploading to DropBox, OneDrive or similar "cloud" storage and then sharing with the intended recipient.

There are restrictions on size even with email. Another option is to put the video in dropbox with a link to it for your friend.

From WordWeb  - a pretty good online Dictionary:-

"So-and-so  -  A person who is deemed to be despicable or contemptible"

From WIkiPedia:-

"So and so (or "so & so"), a Euphemism for an offensive or pejorative term, used in reference to a person or thing regarded as unpleasant or difficult, or whose name is not worthy of mention."

 

Surely not @Toby ?    The English language is a minefield!
