Apple switched the last two digits of my number when replacing my iphone.

My iPhone had problems charging, so I took it to the Apple Store to have it checked out. It wound up being replaced, but later on in the day I found the last 2 digits of my phone number have been flipped.
Should I contact Sprint, or take it back to the Apple Store?
Is there another fix I can try? Sprint still lists me at my old number.

The phone number should be hard-coded into the SIM card.  Try powering off your phone, resetting the SIM card, and powering back on.

  • HT5961 I want to receive the verification code for the keychain but I was sent to unknown number because the last two digits do not represent my phone number

    I want to receive the verification code for the keychain but I was sent to unknown number because the last two digits do not represent my phone number, so how can I change it to receive it on my cell phone ?

    I found this in the iCloud Keychain FAQs:
    How do I set up iCloud Keychain on a new device if I don't have one of my other devices to approve from?
    If you don't have access to any of your other devices that are using iCloud Keychain, you can still set up iCloud Keychain on another device if you have these items:
    - Your iCloud Security Code
    - The device that is using the SMS-capable phone number you provided when you first set up iCloud Keychain. A verification code is sent via SMS to this phone number. If you don't have access to this number, contact Apple Support, who can verify your identity so that you can complete setup on your new device.
    - If you have these items, follow the iCloud Keychain setup steps documented above. Your iCloud Keychain will then be pushed from the cloud to the new device.
    So it seems that you would have to directly contact the Apple Support: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/

  • Apple Pay: The last 4 digits of my device account number is not showing up on my phone.

    My credit card company needs the last 4 digits of my device account number, and only ***** (stars) show up under my divice account number.  I have 8.1 installed, and have tried restarting my phone.  Any suggestions on how to get my divice account number to show?

    It sounds like your bank requires additional authentication before you can use Apple Pay. It does not look like there was a token activated for your wallet. When you are in your Passbook app- does it say under the card that your card is activated and ready for Apple Pay? If it does not, contact your Bank to get DAN (token) activated.
    DAN will show once token is provisioned and activated, no need for transaction to occur first.
    Hope this helps.
    My credit card is obviously activated, as I was just able to use Apple Pay with it at a store (where they didn't ask for any DAN code). When I view the card in Passbook, it says nothing about whether it's been activated, one way or the other, but obviously the card is working for Apple Pay.
    But I just did find the DAN, way, way down at the very bottom of the Info page, below the whole list of recent transactions.
    Nowhere in any documentation I've seen does it indicate that this would be at the very bottom and one has to scroll so far down. Does seem like an unfriendly place to put it,

  • In Lion, Word for Mac only prints last two digits of year

    In Snow Leopard, the automatic dates that auto fill in Word for Mac (08, 2011) worked fine...BUT since I 'upgraded' to Lion, (10.7.3) only the last two digits of the year will autofill, EVEN in full date mode...ie, SHOULD BE:
    February 21, 2012
    BUT auto filled as: February 21, 12
    I saw on a MS help site that it's ID'ed as a problem in Lion:
    From http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2008-macword/automatic-dat e-entry-doesnt-enter-entire-year/91793432-006b-4f6a-99fa-cf425266cb84
    This was the query:
    automatic date entry doesn't enter entire year
    Applies To: Office for Mac | Office 2008 for Mac | Word for Mac
    When I enter the weekday at the beginning of a sentence, the month, date and year are automatically filled in. However, instead of having the whole years, such as 2011, it only enters the last two digits, such as "11". This is new since an update a month or so ago. I would like to set it back to the original "Friday, November 04, 2011" if possible.
    Appreciate any help I can get.
    ANSWER:
    Its a bug in OSX.7 evidently MS has not rung up Apple and said hey get off your duff and fix this date issue.  If you can find a place to send bug report to Apple do so.
    So I checked the OSX Lion support site on apple.com and could not find an answer.
    Does anyone know how to fix or how to get Apple to fix?
    Thank you.

    It's a bug, but whether it's a bug for Apple to fix or for Microsoft to fix is unknown. The thread you post is unauthoritative, being only comments by other users who have no more idea as to where the bug really lies (unless an Apple engineer has confirmed a Lion bug, something I've not seen) as any other user does; no one in that thread works for or speaks for either Microsoft nor Apple.
    You can comment on the issue to Apple, if you wish:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    but whether it's something they can fix or whether it's Microsoft's problem I can't say.

  • Last two characters are cut out when entering data in a text form

    Whenever I try leaving a comment on a page, it always cuts out the last two characters, and replaces them with "Pr". This happens across multiple browsers, (Chrome, FF, and Camino), but not Safari.
    In addition, if a '<' character was put in, it'll cut out the last two characters in its code, and replace them with Pr again, leaving %Pr.
    This happens on a mac (I'm posting for my friend who I talk to all the time).

    We did end up checking keyboard related settings in her Mac Preferences, but there wasn't anything related. I will end up trying Apple's forums if no one here can help. Anyways the "Pr" I believe might've come from the source code, as there is "editProfile" in the page. I don't really do web development, so I'd have no idea here. This is the page's source from around that area btw (I had to convert them to all HTML character codes because it kept parsing it):

    Hello binbingogoABC,
    Shopping on BestBuy.com should be easy and fun and not fraught with the kind of trouble that you describe. I regret very much that this has been your experience.
    Using the information you provided when you signed up for Best Buy Unboxed I was able to locate your cancelled orders. I have requested more information from my back-office partners. As soon as I have additional details about your situation, I will reply again to this message. In the interim, I'm sorry that I must impose upon your patience.
    I'm very grateful that you wrote to us with your concerns.

    I tried to use Apple Pay at the 1280 Lexington Ave store in NY but was asked for the last 4 digits of my cardnumber and it never worked. The question itself made no sense but I tried in vain by supplying it as well as the security code. I didn't know the last 4 of my proxy card number.

    Open Passbook, select the credit card you are using, touch the Info icon on the lower right. This will display the last four digits of the ‘Device Account Number’. These four digits are what your retailer wants to complete the transaction, NOT the last four digits of your card number. Some retailers require this, others do not.

    You probably are mixing up your password with passwords from other accounts. If i were you i would write down your password somewhere easy to acess and make it very hard to guess if you ever reset it.

  • The sound on my ipad 3 suddenly stopped working i dont know why i tried the last two days to fix it and also restored it and the sound never came back, please help.....

    the sound on my ipad 3 suddenly stopped working i dont know why i tried the last two days to fix it and also restored it and the sound never came back, please help.....

    Do you get sound on any apps e.g. Music and Videos but not others ? If you do then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • Ripping the last two tracks goes on forever

    I did the latest Software Update, had the same problems as many others but got them fixed at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=308623&tstart=0 But now iTunes 6.0.2 stops ripping the last two tracks of a CD (V/A - Dub Chill Out MCCD 265). I've tried it again with error correction switched off in prefs but still no joy.

    There was an issue: read this:

    There just isn't a way for the ATV2 updater to have done this automatically. There was documentation online telling users to reset first. But, of course most folks didn't know.

    My iPod Touch is running on ios 7. In the last two and a half all the apps of my iPod have been suddenly wiped out twice. I had to download all the apps all over again. Why has it happened?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
