Can't get voice mail to activate

I've recorded my voicemail but after four rings, the fax tone kicks in (the line is connected to a fax machine). Is there a way to have the phone line function as both a message repository as well as a fax line? Maybe by adjusting the number of rings before voicemail should kick in? Thanks!

This only happens when you have Speaker turned on in Voicemail.  Turn off Speaker before lifting iPhone to your ear.

  • Upgraded to ios 5, now my voice mail is asking for a password or code to unlock to get voice mail. Didn't have a passcode before upgrade, so how do I reset the passcode?

    upgraded to ios 5, now my voice mail is asking for a password or code to unlock to get voice mail. Didn't have a passcode before upgrade, so how do I reset the passcode?

    So now I went back to the screen that orginally asked me for my Apple ID and passort, and instead of entering my Apple ID i entered the email address associated with it and the new password.  It now tells me "You can't sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons.  To enable your account, reset your passwort at iforgot.apple.com"
    I have now changed my password twice and it still doesn't work.
    Until I get this resolved my tablet is useless.

  • Can I transfer voice mail to a new device?

    Can I transfer voice mail to a new device? My father recently passed away and I don't want to lose them.

    To your PC is probably a good way to do it. And you can get the male/male cords anywhere.

    one from walmart just as an example. The reason I say not to trust your device or the phone service, a friend of mine had voice mails from his mother, who passed on, he thought they were out there, that he'd saved them, but the phone company deleted them after a while. I can only presume their thought is 'this mail is X months old, surely they don't need it' and it gets purged. They have no idea how important it is. Getting them somewhere else gives you the control over them
    To your PC you should be able to plug into the phone earphone jack, then your PC's mic input jack, hit record on your PC, play on your phone and it should record.

  • Jabber for windows can't play voice mail

    hello everyone....
    i config jabber with Unity Connection
    now i can receive a voice mail form jabber ,all is right ..but i can't play it
    if i login the voice mail i can hear the voice mail......only can't play form jabber ...
    my jabber client is 9.2 and CUCM 9.1 Unity Connection 8.62 CUPS 9.1

    We have the same problem with Jabber for Windows 9.2.
    It is interesting that the voicemail feature seems to work for a few seconds when the client starts up. At this time I can see all of voice mails, and the number of unread voicemails shows as a number where the voicemail icon is, but then they all disappear. The voicemail tab then shows the message, "Cisco Jabber is not connected to your voicemail server".
    The 'Call voicemail' button works.
    I understand that our server has been setup for TLS, and that the voicemail tab in Jabber for Windows 9.1.5 works.

    Do you mean that your startup disk is full?

    Hi,
    If your OS is Linux you can update Firefox using the Package Manager / Software Center. After opening the Manager type '''firefox''' in the search area, tick '''firefox''' in the results and apply. You may also be asked to accept additional new dependencies.
    or
    You can directly download the latest version for Linux here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    It is a zip package and you have to unzip it and run the script file named '''firefox''' inside the unzipped folder. You have to go inside this folder every time to run this file or you can create a link to the '''firefox''' file on the desktop. In this case please note that the old Firefox installation will still exist and the usual links will open that instead of the new one.

    Jailbreaking violates the Apple warranty and licensing agreement and voids ALL support from Apple.  No one on here can help you as doing so is a violation of the Terms of Use of these Communities.  If you send the iPad to Apple they will just send it back to you as they are not permitted to work on a machine that has been jailbroken.

  • How can I get Mac mail to open winmail.dat attachments on lion 10.7.3

    How can I get Mac mail to open letter attachments winmail.dat??   (Lion 10.7.3) Any help appreciated...

    Sorry peterskine,
    it's true in part. There's more then one article on the subject "Recipients receive a winmail.dat attachment":
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/outlook-help/recipients-receive-a-winmail-dat- attachment-HA010153018.aspx?CTT=1
    The odd thing is that my colleague and me use the same release mountain lion and we received the same email from someone on Outlook2007. He received the mail with the attachment, whilst I saw a "Winmail.dat". It already happened to me on snow-leopard, some month ago. Up til today I don't know what the difference between our machines is.
    But it is interesting: the same OS, the same mail-clients (Apple Mail) and still different results.
    Note: on my machine it used to work properly. It just suddenly happened that I started to receive winmail.dat files in stead of proper attachments.
    When I have more time on hand, I cant try to find out why this happens.

  • How can I get my mail app to sync from my mac to iPhone, I don't have the 'info' option in iTunes?

    How can i get my mail app to sync from my mac to iphone? i dont have the 'info' option in itunes!
    I have created files within the mail app and want them to be the same on my mac and iphone.

    You need a mail server that supports this then. Hotmail premium I believe does, but the free version does not. Gmail supports it, and any ISP that offers IMAP supports this capability. iCloud definitely supports it, so if you create a free iCloud email account and switch your primary email to it you would have this capability.

  • How can i get apple mail to recognize gmail and pac bell mail servers?

    it says it doesn't recognixe the certificate, so i restarted which usally works but not always
    please help
    thank you
    garrett

    Google has a support notice that may explain the problem here: http://support.google.com/mail/answer/82350?hl=en
    Apple has a built-in method for setting up Gmail accounts that makes sure that they are set up properly.
    Go to System Preferences under the Apple menu and select Mail, Contacts & Calendars. In the left-hand sidebar select the Add Account… item. In the main window select Gmail. Enter the information in the drop down sheet.
    As for Pacbell I don't know what the proper settings are and could only find these from a third party so proceed with caution. http://www.emailserversettings.com/category/pacbell
