Caller id, verify: never received. yes legacy sms...

My provider unilaterally rejects both legacy sms premium services and legacy sms short codes
This means I shall NEVER receive verification legacy sms message if skype is using other than a long code (typical legacy sms usage)
how else can I verify THIS number from the current provider for outbound caller id?
$0 texting: XMPP
stop making your friends install prprietary apps. Good friends use Open Standards AND encryption.

I have an SMS enabled phone/email address and I've never had issues receiving SMS texts from Skype.  I'm unaware of any other alternate methods or ways to force SMS texts through, they either go through or they don't.  I would suggest you contact Comcast and tell them where the SMS is originating from (Skype), see if it's caught in a spam filter or if there are any known issues.I tested sending an SMS Skype message to my cell phone and it shows "75973" as the senders number.  A Google search shows that all Skype SMS messages show 75973" as the senders number for ALL Skype users in the United States and that it is not a specific account.  I suspect that when Skype is verifying my Comcast phone number by sending an SMS message to it Skype is using the same code for the senders number.  I posted the issue on Comcast's forum and got the reply that the sender's number must be a valid phone number format.  There is probably nothing I can do to fix this even though I paid Skype for a valid phone number!

  • I am being asked to verify my Apple ID.  When I enter the password I get the message it is wrong.  It says the e-mail address is already verified for another Apple ID and then it says it is sending an e-mail to my e-mail account that I then never receive.

    This is most likely caused by an iCloud sign up (which forces you to use an email address as Apple ID).
    Here's the workaround fix I found after some online research:

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

    Sorry for my english i'm spanish

    I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc).  Any suggestions?  What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

  • My iPhone 4 will say that an SMS Text has sent, even though the recipient never receives it.

    Just like the title says - my phone will send the message (the bar along the top after you hit 'send' fills), but the recipient never receives it. I've tried freeing up memory, power on/off, and testing it again multiple people with different cellular services - it's definitely my phone. I've never had a problem like this one any other phone, and I haven't switched services, so I believe it is an issue with the iPhone.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    If the iPhone is showing the message was sent, you saw the bar fill, it made the sent message sound, etc., then the fault is not within your phone it is with one of the carriers.

  • Never received a verification code

    I never received a verification code with elements 10 which would allow me to send pictures by email / photomail. My "chat" with the Adobe representative was not helpful. She suggested I look in community forums. Others seem to have a similar issue but I have not seen a response that resolves this problem. I am quite willing to upgrade to elements 12, but require an assurance that this issue will not be a problem

    Same here! I haven't gotten a text verifying my # even though I have Sprint and my number is the same as normal cell phone #? No verification by standard text message or skpe text! IN FACT it still shows my account as having no credit on phone and tablet although I have a month PAID (offer from skype), will not even consider buying credit unless fixed! Anyone know why? and yes I have asked to resend but no text....... ??????

  • IMessage, Text Message, Voicemail - are very often never received!

    It's so unreliable, I'm using a BB as a backup!  Anybody else have this issue?  It's been over the last 2 months or so.....my iMessages don't work, switched that off completely, text messages are often never received (sent by someone else to me), and voicemails are not coming through for hours after they are left. 
    I've called ATT twice and both times they did the same thing - re-registered my phone with the network.  It hasn't helped.
    Any suggestions?

    Yes, I turn my phone off frequently.  That doesn't do anything.  I have messages that have been sent and never received and no amount of restarting ever gets them to come.  I can see, for example, that my daughter sent me a text when I look at her iPhone...and i never get it.

  • How do I create a Persona account for my Open Badges Backpack when I never receive the email link to my account?

    I enter the email address and password for a new Persona account for my Backpack. All the information is accepted. The screen tells me to access my account through the link sent to my email. The email is never received.
    Yes, my email service provider has gone through all their inbound logs and check all spam blocking areas. They have watched the logs for all incoming email messages while I perform the sign up process and see nothing from Mozilla or Persona.
    Please recommend next steps. Thank you.

    Hi so persona is no longer supported. Please contact the administrator that has implemented persona in the portion of the site you are using it. For example, if you are on the badges page
    Here are all the issuers of badges [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Badges/Issuers] and the infrastructure of the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Badges/Technology authentication process]
    If you open up a web console and go thorough the process you can check on the final stage in the error logger if there are any errors on the ui's end. For example, if there is a 302 redirect or 500 server error, this will be the server responsible for the authentication responsible for the issue.
    I hope this puts you in the right direction.

  • Apple ID, registered yesterday - never received a confirmation email but when try to sign in says username or pass not valid. Password /username reset doesnt work! When I try to re-register it says that my username is already in use! ?

    Hello!
    I tried to create an ID account a few hours ago using my current email address in order to use ibooks. I completed all stages and even provided my visa card - I received a message from my bank that 'my visa was authorized for an indicative amount Euro1.00 @ Apple' BUT I never received an email in order to verify my apple ID.
    Please note, at that moment of my registration there was something wrong with my internet connection and I not sure if the registration process was 100% completed. I then tried to sign in using my email address and it says that my username or password is not valid. I tried all procedures to reset password/username but it doesnt allow me to do anything - since it doesnt recognize my name or my date of birth/security question. Then I tried to create the ID again, doing the procedure from the beginning but then it says that my email account (username) is already in use. I am blocked here and cannot use my email to register! (I registered with my old email address so I can contact you here). Any advice? Thanks in advance.

    I think you should contact Apple support and explain the problem to them.  It's not unknown but it might have a security side to it.   Better safe than sorry.

  • I never received an installation disk with my iMac. I do require one now. How do I get it?

    Hello everyone,
    My wife and I purchased an iMac about 1,5 years ago. Perhaps 2. And everything worked perfectly. We even got the iPad 3 to go with and next month an iphone 5.
    However, since a few weeks my mail didn't respond anymore. Did not open, didn't do anything anymore. I found a solution and had it working again.
    NOW, it's jPhoto that is not responding anymore. Though only on MY account. We have two accounts on the system, but with my wife it is working. Just not on mine.
    I have found Disk Utilities and did a permissions repair. Which worked. I think... But then the disk repair does not. I can verify the disk but not repair it. It requires a reboot from the Mac OS X installation disk.
    I never received one. Was I supposed to get one with my iMac? Or should I make one? Can I still make one with the problems I am having? Or am I copying the problems to that disk?
    Can anyone enlighten me?
    Thanks,
    The Demacker Family.
    PS: We did update to iOS 10.6 a while ago.

    In the meantime, if you really are on 10.6, you can try and repair the drive by using these options, both explained here. Safe Boot and fsck from single user mode.

  • How to get a refund for paid app i never received

    In April of 2014 I attempted to perform an in-app purchase in the game HayDay, which I had downloaded for free on my older iphone 4s that I also had at this time. I still have an iphone 4s but it is a different one. But that's not important. What my question is, is that every time I would go to purchase some diamonds or what ever else I wanted in the app It would tell me there was an error and it could not be purchased. I kept trying a few times and then finally gave up. I had no idea that it was saying error even though the actual charges on my credit card were going through and I spent(lost) somewhere over a hundred, maybe two, on some stupid in-app purchases that I never received and got my credit card took quite a hit from that. I called Apple and they said they could not help me and I had to get a hold of the creators of HayDay in order to get a refund. I found the contact email to get a hold of the creators and they never answered my issue. I asked many times and no one can help me. What do I do to get that money back that shouldn't have ever been taken from my credit card in the first place? I have all the order numbers and stuff if need be.

  • I made an in app purchase and never received what I was supposed to. I contacted the producers of the app and they never got back to me. I then contacted apple and they said they would return my 25$ purchase. I still haven't gotten it. What do I do?
