Broke my iPhone, need to deactivate iMessage somehow...

So yeah, i broke my iPhone and can't use it. Im currently using an old Samsung, the problem is i can't receive texts from people using iPhone/iMessage.
My iPhone is completly busted so there's no hope in getting to work. Is it possible to deactivate iMessage remotly from appleid or do I need to go down to my local MAC-shop?
Sorry for my bad english

Contact Apple support; they can deactivate it

Need to deactivate iMessage on stolen phone

How can I deactivate iMessaging on stolen iPhone?

Th following quote is from If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen and it recommends changing your Apple ID password to proven use of iMessage:
if Find My iPhone isn't enabled on your missing device
If you didn't turn on Find My iPhone before your device was lost or stolen, you can't use it to locate your device. However, you can use these steps to help protect your data:
Change your Apple ID password. By changing your Apple ID password you can prevent anyone from accessing your iCloud data or using other services (such as iMessage or iTunes) from your missing device.
Change the passwords for other internet accounts on your device. This could include email accounts, Facebook, or Twitter.
Report your lost or stolen device to local law enforcement. Law enforcement might request the serial number of your device. Find your serial number:
On the original box or receipt
On My Support Profile (supportprofile.apple.com) if you registered your device with your Apple ID
Report your lost or stolen device to your wireless carrier. Your carrier can disable the account, preventing phone calls, texts, and data use.
If you want to use another device and your messages are not being received because of iMessage, the following recommends contacting Apple Support: Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone

HT5538 Broke my iPhone so i want to use my iPod touch for imessaging but my imessages wont send

I broke my iPhone and I would like to use my iPod to send iMessages, except everytime i try and send a message they won't deliver. My iPhone and iPod accounts are linked.... so not sure why this is happening. I went into messages settings and made sure my send & recieve was correct and it is. someone help please!!

Do the recipients have an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with the Messages app and are yo calling the email address or phone number they set up for Messages?
An iPod can only Message to another iOS device with Messages.
Otherwise

Just got a new Iphone 5s. On my Iphone 4 I had to double click to show what apps were running and then to hold my finger on an app to deactivate it. Do you need to deactivate the apps on the 5s?

Just got a new Iphone 5s. On my Iphone 4 I had to double click to show what apps were running and then to hold my finger on an app to deactivate it. Do you need to deactivate the apps on the 5s? If so how do you do it.

Double tap the home button to reveal the "Recently used Apps" then slide the App preview (not the icon) upwards to quit the App.

Hi Corinne,
You can try and perform the installation on another machine and it should work fine for you. Can you please let us know if this is able to solve the issue for you or not.

My iphone broke and i need to enter in icloud from my pc and it sais the account hasn't been verified, how can i do it?

You need to respond to the verification email from Apple by clicking the Verify Now link. Make sure you check the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

I recent ally dropped and broke my iPhone 5, however I have an iPad mini. I've heard, and accidentally connected my iPhones text messages to my ipad. I disabled it, and now I need it back on there to respond to the texts since I cannot on my iPhone. Thx

I recentally dropped and broke my iPhone 5, I have an iPad mini, how do I connect my broken iPhone to my iPad so I can read/respond to the texts being sent to my phone

You can receive and respond to iMessages that are sent to your iPad and iPhone from other iOS users. Make sure you have Messages, set up and turned on on your iPad. You will not be able to receive texts from non iOS devices.
Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. They will explain your out of warranty options for replacement of your iPhone.

I no longer have my iphone and need to turn imessage off

i no longer own an iphone and need to turn imessage off but i no longer have the phone at all so i cant turn it off myself

If youv'e ever called them they should have it on file. If you haven't call your carrier first and tell them that you need imessage turned off but don't have the imei number for the old iphone and ask if they still have it. Once you get it you can call apple and give them that number or have your carrier just route you straight to them.

Hey, I broke my iPhone 4 screen when I change it my phone start to turn off while my battery reach the 25% when I connect it to the charger it switched on, and the battery percentage is around 25% so it's the time for a new battery, or I need to calibrate

There are no user serviceable parts in an iPhone. Since you
made an unauthorized repair to your iPhone, you will have to
seek assistance elsewhere.
Google or ifixit.com may provide some direction, but you can
get no help here per Terms of Service. Sorry to tell you this,
but it is what it is.

I have a Sprint Iphone 5s and I was wondering if you could use a sprint Iphone on Verizon. My phone broke and I need a new phone but my upgrade is in August.

I read around and had a hard time understanding but I don't think Sprint IPhones will work on Verizon. Thanks for any response

To my knowledge, a Sprint device will not work on VZW.

Hello, I need to deactivate my Adobe product that is installed on a computer that "Broke" and reinstall it on my new laptop. Redownload and reactivate it.??

Hello, I bought and installed Adobe Acrobat Pro on a laptop. Since windows crashed and as it was a single user license, I need to deactivate it and redownload it onto my new laptop.
Any pointers?
Thanks,

A single user license provides for having it installed and activated on two machines.
If you are unable to deactivate on the broken machine then you need to contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations. If you do this before installing and activating on the new machine you can save yourself the problem of reactivating it.
For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

If you originally purchased a download thru Adobe then there might be a download link in your account online. There are other options as well.

How do I deactivate imessage and ichat on a dead phone/ Recently switched to samsung

Howdo I deactivate Imessage and Ichat on a dead 4s? Recently waithced to Samsing and not getting messages from iphone contacts

Hi,
In theory an iPhone that appears to the Server as Off Line will be "de-registered" from the server.
Twice at various iOS Upgrades I have had the iPhone Number become greyed out leaving only the Apple ID is use (Despite the fact th item is greyed out and unchangeable by the user.
This should mean that the iPhone should present as not in service and the sender should "Switch" to sending SMS.
However as the Mac version may still have the iPhone number in it's Send and Receive lists then the iPhone may appear to be still logged in.
You can "disable" the iPhone number in the iMessages account (Messages > Preferences > Accounts).
Unticking the Receive At will also remove it form the Start Conversation From drop down.
It can be removed by deleting the com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist in Mavericks and above as this holds the current Apple ID and any "Aliases" in use. You will need to re-enter your Apple ID in Messages on the Mac if you do this.
Ultimately contacting Apple Support is the simplest and best way although some of the above may be needed to "tidy up" afterwards.
