I cannot attach a file to an MMS message

Depending on your wireless service provider, if you attach a video, you might not be able to attach another file or create a slide show.

Try performing the following actions:

• Verify that the file is a .vcf (vCard®) file, an .ics (iCalendar) file, or a media file (for example, a .jpg, .gif, or .midi file).

• Verify that the file is not copyright protected.

• If MMS templates are available for your BlackBerry® device, use a blank template to compose your MMS message.
