Can't get phone number up when sending an iMessage

When setting up a new iphone 5 c can't seem to get the iMessage to work properly meaning cannot send or receive messages and when it does work can only get it to come up as an email not phone number and wen anyone txts me to my number messages don't come through

Your cell phone number will be grayed out under You can be reached by iMessage at - that can't be deselected on an iPhone with iMessage. If your phone number is grayed out and can't be selected under Start new conversations from, that is likely due to the waiting for iMessage activation problem.

How can I get phone number contacts to transfer?

I read the user guide, backed up my phone list numbers from my old phone, but found that directions to transfer the phone numbers did not work on my iphone 4. Grrrrr! What I read in the instructions does not match what I see on the screen. Also, Apple's use of the word "contacts" is used to apply to both email addresses (which did transfer easily) and phone number contacts (which did not). This can be confusing.
Has anyone transferred a phone list from their previous "dumb" phone (backup assistant enabled) to an iphone4 (not backup assistant friendly).

Hey Susanne,
I'm very sorry to hear about your lack-of-success from the Backup Assistance feature that Verizon Wireless offers. I've also had a horrible experiences with that feature on the iPhone 4 and it just seems to make it a regret of getting a new phone, haha!
Just to ensure not a further headache, have you checked online to make sure all of your contacts are successfully stored on the Backup Assistance?

Hi there,
Your phone number field name doesn't match any of the BC's phone number fields. You have name="PhoneNumber" there, but BC names are name="HomePhone" and name="CellPhone".
Try reinserting that form onto a page and submitting it.

Get phone number when open tcp socket

I can get phone number and other info of phone when mobile connect to server by http on GPRS, but can I get phone number when connect by tcp socket?

When you open a tcp connection by socket from mobile phone to IP server, you use ip end to end connectivty. In fact, when you use GPRS support on your mobile phone this one have a public IP address used to establish an IP connection to an other IP device.
If you want to get the phone number, two solutions :
1/ you transmit the phone number like a datastream on you socket. But it's a static solution, because you must enter the mobile number as a input (through a textfield form or somethink like that)
2/You take the phone number in the memory of your mobile phone (Agenda). But it's so compicated because that's depend of type of mobile. The memory design is dedicated mobile by mobile.

I cant get a number for my ipod on iMessage?

I'm having troubles, I can't get a number for my ipod on iMessage. Like I send & receive texts from my email but I cant get a phone number. If I try to add it on the field it wont let me put it in. So what do I do?

An iPod (and iPad) will only have a phone number for Messages (and FaceTime) if the same ID is used on an iPhone with iOS 6

There's no option to edit/delete the iPhone cache, the cache will be overwritten in time.
If you can't wait, only restore as new can get rid of it.

Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software

Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

Do you possibly mean the contacts have been merged?
If so, where are each of you syncing contacts? A supported application on the computer? iCloud or another cloud service? An Exchange server?
WIthout details, it's difficult to offer specific resolutions.

Error Invalid Number message when sending text

Ever since I upgraded to an iPhone 5s I get an Error Invalid Number message when sending a text to a phone number that used to work just fine from my 4s. In fact I can receive a text from this number but when I try to reply to that text I get the error message again.
I deleted the contact info in case there was something broken there and I'm trying it with just the raw phone number but without any luck. What can I do? It's my boss's number so it's important I fix this problem. All other contacts and texts are working just fine, it's just this one phone, a Samsung galaxy on T-mobile if that helps.

I am having the same exact issue with my Nokia Lumia 920 Windows phone. I was texting my son this morning when one text immediately returned a "+1 (112) 161-1611 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send u sing a vlid 10 digit mobile number" message. His contact info looked fine, but I edited it, re-saved it and tried texting again. Same result - except the number reported in the error message showed 2 "1s" in front of his mobile number. I was able to text my wife a couple of times to report this to her and then it happened with her number in exactly the same manner. I am still able to text people I work with - so this leads me to believe it has something to do with phone numbers that have been saved outside of my corporate contact list. I will be monitoring this posting to see if there is a fix.

I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. Logged in and can not get serial number. Says it is incorrect. Going in circles.

Can't get serial number for Photoshop Elements. I'm logged in. I have a redemption code and also codes on the back of the box. nothing works and am running in circles. I want to install and use it and can't because I can't get the correct serial number. On the front of the box it says use the card (with redemptiom code to receive the serial number.HELP!!!

Dear Brian,
I activated my product in August of 2014. I had it a few months, October, when my computer crashed. Therefore I had to go back to Adobe tell them what happened, and then until December I had noticed that it said that I had a trial copy. I was not worried, as I had the serial number. it was working, but in January I got a message that my "trial" copy had expired.
At that time I had contacted Adobe and was told that because it was beyond the 3 months, they would no longer help me.
Therefore, at one point, when the computer crashed, I had not deactivated the program. But Adobe had gotten it working for me again.
I do not know what happened between October and December to have changed the software from a real copy to a trial copy.
Now to your patient questions.
As you wrote, that is what happens to the point of getting the trial copy, but when I follow the process through, I get a message that my "trial copy has expired". When I go the the editor, the whole process loops again, sign in, trial copy, licence page, add serial number, then the message that the trial has expired.
When I got that message the first few times months ago, I went back to the Adobe web site and downloaded another copy. (I have done this numerous times) It still said that I had a trial copy and that it had expired, there is a box to licence this software, when I click that, I have to sign in again, This time I also had gone to the Adobe web site signed in and left it open, while I put in the serial number, hoping that would help (have also tried that before). It waits and then the Editor/Organized box comes up again. When I go to the Editor, it tells me that this is a trial copy which has expired and it starts all over again.
I was so frustrated, that I waited a couple of months to try it again. The thinking was that there was some glitch that would work it self out and I could again down load a clean copy of the original, not a trial. (I do not know how I keep getting a trial copy of PSE 12, as it is not even offered on the site.)
The crazy thing is this morning when I turned on my computer, I had an update for the Adobe PSE 12 and Camera Raw. Probably because I had downloaded a copy again.
When I go the the web site to down load a copy of the PSE !2, I am doing it from the My accounts/ products page and downloads. I have left the web page open to copy the serial number from that page, although it always matches my notes.
ThanksT

Can't get my number pad to work - No Num Lock

Hello,
I recently got my iMac with the wireless keyboard and noticed that I can not get my number pad to work. There is no num lock button to turn on/off, just the clear button. Can someone help me figure this out? Thanks
Jay

This is from the built-in Mac Help.
Hope it works for you.
My numeric keypad doesn't work
The way the numeric keypad works depends on your computer, the keyboard you're using, the application you're working in, and whether the Num Lock key is engaged. Usually, the numeric keypad is used to enter numbers in a document, but in some applications you might be able to use the keypad to navigate (move around in) your document.
Press the Num Lock key to switch between the ways the numeric keypad functions.
If you have a separate numeric keypad on your keyboard, the Num Lock key is located in the numeric keypad. If you're using a portable computer, the Num Lock is a function key, marked Num Lock (F6). If your keyboard has a separate keypad but no Num Lock key, try pressing Shift-Clear.
Most portables have a group of keys on the keyboard that can function as the numeric keypad. To find the keypad, look for small numbers or symbols in the lower-right corner of keys on the right side of your keyboard. Press the Num Lock key (F6) to turn on the keypad. The green light glows on the Num Lock key when the keypad is active.

How can i get iban number in transaction FDTA

Hi Abaper,
How can i get iban number in transaction FDTA ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sourav

This is a bit past the last activity of the thread, but I just had an idea, that requires me to get the port number in the init.
When this particular servlet shuts down, it generates an email. Since there is more than one instance running, I figured, I would put the HOST and PORT in the email.
The problem with saving this information from a request, is say it gets shutdown before any requests are generated.
The email then would have the HOST portion, but the port would be null.
Ideally there would be a way to get the port(s) that the server is listening on.
Thanks,
Brent Parsons
