How can I see the phone number that a contact used to call me?

I have several contacts in the addressbook of my iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1) for which I have entered multiple phone numbers. In the call history the names of my contacts are shown, which is fine. To call someone back based on the history I would like to know which number was used to call me. Is there a way to get to this information?

It will say "mobile" Home", etc under the name.

Hello Boogie3339,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Please see below on how to change your phone number for iCloud Keychain:
Change how new devices can be approved
After setting up iCloud Keychain on your Mac, you can change whether your iCloud Security Code can be used to approve iCloud Keychain on new devices. You can also change the iCloud Security Code or the phone number used to verify your identity after you use the iCloud Security Code.
In iCloud Preferences, make sure Keychain is on, click Account Details, then change your iCloud Security Code settings.

How can i change the phone number on my ipod to a different number

how can i change my phone number on my ipod to a different number than my i phone

Only by getting a different iPhone and using your Apple ID for Messages/FaceTime on your iPod. The iPod (and iPad) only have a phone number for Messages and FaceTimeT if the Apple ID used for those services on the iPad is also used on a Phone witrh iOS 6 or later.

How can I see the total number of books (size of library) on iBooks on my iMac and IPad Mini?

I have installed iBooks on both my iMac (main library) as well as on my iPad Mini Retina. I can't seem to find where to see the total number of books in each library? Can anyone enlighten me please? I can see the covers, lists etc. but nowhere how many books I have total in each library (Total: X number of books stored) or something like that. Can someone point me where this information is viewable?

Did you have 'find my iPhone' activated on it? Because if you go to iCloud.com you can log in there and you can remotely lock or wipe your device. From what I hear, the police won't do anything about going and fetching stolen iPads and iPhones, but if you have find my iphone/ipad/ipod/mac turned on then it will give you a map of where it is.
Just keep in mind that sometimes iTunes does ask you for your password regardless, and only a few weeks ago apple brought in security questions, so everyone had to fill in security questions for their iTunes account to make it more secure If all else fails, ring Apple cusomer support and they might be able to bar your account or something, however you may have to make a new account (the might be able to set it up so you have all your previous information on a new account)
Hope this helps!

How can i update the phone number associated with my iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air?

I recently moved to the US from Canada and have a new US #. I have updated the phone number on my apple ID but the iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air are still connected to my old Canadian phone number. How can I update this? Thanks so much!

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
          Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
          Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
          Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test.

How can I change the phone number in which security code is sent because I stay in China long time and buy a new iPadair. I cannot connect with iCloud.

I work in China, therefore, I stay in China for long time. I bought an iPadair and try to connect with iCloud, then asked me security code which is sent to my home phone in New York. I cannot get it. How can I connect the new one with iCloud. My name is David M Lee, have Apple, iCloud and iTune account.

If you are referring to the code for Apple ID two-step verification, you will need access to either one of your trusted devices or your Recovery Key. There is more information in the links below:
