My iMessage will not register that I have a phone number attached to the account on my mac. It only shows the email addresses. My iPhone and iPad work perfectly.

Hi Aurion23,
If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:

Why will my iPad 2 not recognize any iPod cables? I have tried two different cables in both the wall and in my laptop, but it will not register that it is receiving power, nor will the laptop recognize that they are connected.

Crizzo is right, the best way to charge is with the included power block. That said, the USB cords are interchangable as far as an of us know. (just not power bricks, iPhone and iPod bricks put out 5W of power, the iPad wants 10W and will always say 'not charging' if plugged into less power than it requires even though it will charge, just very slowly)
If you have tried to charge your iPad - with the iPad charger - with multiple cables and multiple computers and get no joy then it's time to head to the apple store and have them check it out. The 30 pin USB port can go bad - mine did - and it's a manufacturer's defect (unless there's any sort of obvious damage) and should be covered under the warranty;

Hi Mario,,,,
I tried everything in your reply,,, thank you again,, I had done that once before and all was working great,,
I have just now tried the Reinstall via iTunes, about 20 into the download, the iTunes logo on the phone disappeared, and the Apple Logo appeared again,,, I waited until the iTunes stated that the download had finished, and the install was in progress,,,
Nothing happened, still the Apple Logo was visual on the screen, iTunes never recognised the phone which it was on my iTunes account previously,,,
Still just a bunch of lines, maybe 5 or 6 so small writing,, I personally can not read what it is telling me, someone said it reads, incorrect shutdown,,,????????
Please advise,???
I am now at a loss,,, I really became excited when I saw the iTunes icon after putting the phone into restore,,,???
Thank you again

I have tried everything possible. tried resetting my network settings and even the whole phone but my phone wouldn't connect to my wifi at home but will connect to other wifi's when i'm out. my sisters both have the same iphone and theirs work perfectly.

My iPhone wouldn't connect to my wifi at home but connects to others when i go out. i have tried resetting my whole phone and network settings but still wouldn't work. Everyone in my house has an iPhone and theirs work perfectly. I need help. it randomly started working yesterday after not connecting for 4 days and suddenly it stopped working again today

The two things to try first are renewing your network lease, forgetting the network and if that doesn't work to reset all networks. You might have tried one of these but I'll repeat the steps just to make sure.
Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Renew Lease
If that doesn't work then
Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Forget this Network
If that doesn't work
Settings > General > Networks > Reset All Networks > then reset your iPhone by
Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
I hope one of these will help.

Updated my AppleID account info. Under password security shows an email address to be used to receive email with new password settings. I need to update that email address, how do I do that? Thanks!

Thanks for the help Niel. I couldn't change the rescue email address (an address that no longer exists and is therefore useless) until I could correctly answer the security questions. After numerous guesses, finally got them right. Was then presented with the option to change the rescue email address. Guess the only other option was to have Apple Support make the change or reset my account info. Have made note of the correct answers so this won't happen again. Thanks for the fast response!!

Do you have to have a phone number attached to iphone 4 verizon to get past the activation screen?

I got an iPhone 4 32gb off of ebay, I do not have it yet. what made me buy it was that it said that it was a unlocked 32gb iphone 4 for $44.99 stuck in a boot loop, I googled that and seen as easy fix got excited then I ordered and paid for it and it is on its way. then I was just looking at the photos again a few minutes ago then noticed that in the one photo there is NO SIM slot, then I said hahaha that is not unlocked as it is a CDMA, then figured that it is a Verizon iPhone so now I am needing to know if one can get past that activation screen if the iPhone does not have a phone number?
I too have no idea what version iOS is on it. I do know it is a CDMA as it does not have the SIM SLOT on the side of the phone.
I do not know if Sprint iPhone 4 is without a SIM slot or even if they use the iPhone 4 on Sprint so it has to be a Verizon then yes?
reguadless the question remaines the same, does it ( a CDMA) have to have a phone number attached to it in order to get it to work using everything on the phone besides the phone part ie making Phone calls and texting?

as I stated I have NOT recived it in the mail yet, I discovered that it is a CDMA by looking at the pictures again. as just moments before I was reseacring the psychial differences between an iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s and it showed and said that the major way to tell the difference is them cuts in the band on the phone where iPhone 4 has one on top and the iPhone 4s does not, the iPhone 4s has four cuts in it two on each side so when I seen the picture of the top of the iPhone and seen that it did NOT have a cut in the band on top I said to myself wow they miss that it is an iPh9one 4s and not just an iPh9one 4, so I googled how to fix a boot loop and found the answer more then once being the same answer so I bought it.
then I took a look at the pictures again after all was said and done befre I have yet to recive said iPhone 4 32GB then I noticed it does not have the SIM tray then said oh *&*%^Y$#*$&$#(# that is a CDMA they cannot be unlocked it is either a Verzion or Srint. as I already have an iPone 4 16GB and I cannot get it unlocked becuase they the powers to be them a$$ whipes that love to control other people lives past a law stating that one now has to get permission from AT&T / T Moble to get your phone unloced so I cannot as I have not had the iPhone 16GB but for a week as I too got it off of Ebay thinking I'll just get it unlocked like I did with my other iPhone 4 8GB that I only paid like 2 dollars and some change off of ebay to get it unlocked with no problem within a week it was unlocked. someone stoled that iPhone 4 bGB
so I got that iPhone 4 16 GB for under 100 dollars in good working order and looks off of ebay just about a week or so before then found that I cannot get it unloceked due to that new law that was passed about unlocking phones. so now I am in comminications with AT&T getting the old run around about getting a stright answer out of them if I keep it ( a second hand phone) on there gophone plan for 6 months can I then get it unlocked, question to them and get an answer that does not state a yes or no as it is a yes or no question.
but so yeah I am to get that iPhone 4 32GB ph9one in the mail on firday(tomorrow) I do want to open it and see if I can get it out of the boot loop just to see if I can and I may just keep it for an ipod use that is way I am wondering if I got a have it attached to a carrier to activate it in case I restore it at any time.

The window shrinks down and when you expand it the writing isn't there it only shows the small part that does open. Most of the games can't be played this way!

When you click to play the game, the window shrinks down and when you expand it the writing isn't there it only shows the small part that does open. Most of the games can't be played this way, you can't read the chat or access most of the buttons!!! It is just the newest version of Firefox because it works fine on my other computer that hasn't been updated and it also works fine in IE.

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so:
Apple - My Apple ID

Sign out 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. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions. See:

My very new MacBook Pro will not acknowledge that I have my camera plugged in, so I am unable to download any pictures.

     This year for Christmas I recieved the newest version of the MacBook Pro. It has worked perfectly, until today. I went to download pictures off of my camera on to my computer, and the computer would not acknowledge that anything was plugged in. I tried each USB port, I restarted and shut down the computer several times, I left it in for a while without touching it, I tried logging in as a guest user, and I tried using a Card Reader instead of the camera cord. But absolutely nothing worked.
     I found that the problem wasn't the camera cord or camera, because I tried plugging it into a different MacBook Pro and it worked just fine. I had the computer plugging in the entire time so it couldn't have been that the computer was just low on power. The really weird thing is I tried to plug my iphone into my computer and that worked fine.
     Has this ever happened to anyone before? Can you give me some advice? I am very frustrated because this computer is basically brand new and its supposed to be a very high quality computer.

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

IPhone 4s will not let me text to one phone number

My iPhone 4s will not let me text to my brother's phone number. It keeps giving the message "Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code." I have rebooted my phone; same problem. I checked the number; it is correct with area code and 7-digit number. I have no trouble texting anyone else in my contact list. The number is not blocked.

I'd head to an Apple Retail Store or contact AppleCare at 1-800-275-2273

Devices show 'Cannot connect to itunes store' when try to purchase via device. However able to purchase via computer therefore password is correct. I purchased a rental film yesterday via ipad so this has just occured today. I've tried rebooting both devices and re sincing with itunes, but the problem remains. I back up via computer not icloud if this makes a difference, which it shouldn't. Any ideas??

I had this exact issue. However, I was not even able to "see" the pending downloads when I tried fixing them using the solution above.
In another thread, I saw that someone mentioned an issue with the use of the "&" (ampersand) symbol in your appleID information. I had recently changed my name and it did include the & symbol in my name (not the appleID itself). I replaced the ampersand with the word "and" and saved. I then went to the iTunes store and logged into my account there and made the same change on my billing name.
Voila! I could now access the 7 pending downloads on my desktop Mac and download them, and all iPhone/iPad/Ipods were again able to download from the app store.
incidentally, I had several support tickets open on this issue and never once did the Apple person even suggest that this might be the issue.
