ronlindatahoe,

What happens when you try? Have you done a restart?

Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Are you out of storage space? See this:

About storage on your device and in iCloud

Good luck.

Tried on and off twice with no change. The text comes through but when I tap download on the photo, it just spins forever.
