Can I activate with a phone number from another state?

Hi, I'm thinking buying the phone but wanted to know if I can or how I can activate it with a number from another state. I travel between Hawaii and Nevada a lot and was thinking about getting a local number in Nevada for the iphone. However, all my billing adresses from credit cards have Hawaii addresses. I also don't have any kind of address in Nevada. Anyone know if this can be done?

reading the OP's statement...
The OP lives in Hawaii and wants to activate a iPhone with a Nevada phone number which the OP does not have yet. The OP also has not billing address in Nevada or any Nevada address. Now while AT&T will give you a out of state number and they will carry a out of state number with you. iTunes is set up to give you a local number, upon activating a new phone iTunes is not designed or equipted to let you choose which areacode you would to start your AT&T account.
*You are correct but not in the case of what the OP is asking for*... The OP does not currently have this number, so once again for the correct advice is below
+iTunes will not allow you to request a number from another state that is different from your billing address, you will have to call AT&T first to setup the account, then activate within iTunes+

  • How do I remove my phone number from another iCloud account so that text messages cannot be seen on another phone?

    How do I remove my phone number from another iCloud account. The issue is another phone receiving my text messages because of a shared apple ID.

    You can't remove your phone number from iMessage on an iPhone.  To prevent another phone from receiving your messages, use different Apple IDs for iMessage.  One of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  You can still share the same ID for other services such as iTunes if you want; they don't have to be the same as your iMessage ID.

  • How can I remove an old phone number from iMessage

    I have an old iphone 3GS that has been upgraded to IOS5 and I am letting my son use.  He is loving the iMessage, however there is one problem - the phone number that used to be associated with that 3GS is still associated with the iMessage settings and so whenever I iMessage my wife at that phone number (or anyone else for that matter), he also gets the message.
    I have added in his email in the "You can be reached for messages at:" settings option, but I cannot delete the phone number.  Any idea how I can get the phone number removed from the iMessage settings?  I want him to be able to send / receive iMessages via his email address - not the phone number that belongs to my wife.
    I did try removing the sim from the phone, but that didn't work.
    Thanks

  • How can I remove my old phone number from my iPhone?

    I want to sell my old iPhone 5 (Sprint), and I want to get everything off of it. Obviously I'd restore it and remove everything first, but how do I get the 'My number' to change from my current phone number (which was ported to T Mobile and is with a newer phone now) to something else/removed? I remember I had the same problem a few years ago with an android phone, and I kept getting texts from my number on it (both phones at the same time), I obviously don't want something like this to happen again, especially if I sell it.
    Thanks in advance

For iPod touches and iPods you Message them using the email address they have associated with Messages. It is usually their Apple ID email address.

  • RESERT MOBILE PHONE NUMBER FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY

    HELLPPPPP!!! GUYS I HAVE A QUESTION I HAVE A US ACCOUNT BUT I MOVED TO ANOTHER COUNTRY AND I CHANGED MY MOBILE PHONE NUMBER
    I FORGOT MY SECURITY QUESTIONS, IM TRYING TO RESET THEM BUT I CANT COS I NEED TO HAVE A RECOVERY EMAIL WHICH I DONT HAVE
    SO HOW I WILL GET CONTACT FROM APPLE SUPPORT TO RESET SINCE I HAVE ANOTHER MOBILE AND I LIVE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY NOW??!!!

    If you are not in the US then you can't use the US iTunes store - you need to be in a country to use its store. If you update the billing address on your account to be your address in the country where you now are then you can try contacting support in that country (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

  • If I order iPhone 5s from apple with one number with upgrade can I activate with a different number?

    My family account has 3 phones, phone 1 does not have an upgrade available but phone 2 does.
    Can I order an iphone 5s from apples website with the number for phone 2 to get the upgrade price and then when I receive the phone activate it with phone 1's number?
    I asked a Verizon representative and he says I AM ABLE to do this BUT I have been looking at "activation" videos and none of them shows any area where you enter a number to activate the phone which leads me to believe the number for the phone is predetermined.  (I have never owned an iphone).
    I would love a definitive answer from someone.

    Yes, you can do this.  When the phone comes in, you'll need to activate it on line 2 to accept the Terms and Conditions, then you can move the phone to line 1.  You then would reactivate the old phone back on line 2.  Keep in mind that you may have a day's worth of pro-rated data on line 2 (I'd check via MyVerizon to double-check that the data plan did, indeed, drop off when you reactivated the basic phone).  Also keep in mind that now line 2 has a new two-year contract and if for some reason you decide to cancel the line before the contract period is over, the ETF will be based on the smartphone purchased, not on the basic phone that's on the line.  Insurance may or may not transfer (I've read that it will since both phones are on the same account, but I'm not positive about that).
