Change icloud telephone number

I've bought an iPhone for the wife's birthday.
Of course I wanted to set everything up so she could use it straight out of the box.
I bought a prepaid simcard for this purpose and everything seemed to be working fine.
Created her Apple ID with her personal email address.
On her birthday she put in her own simcard and still everything seemed to be working fine.
iMessage works correctly - as well as everything else.
However...  Settings/Messages/Send & Receive/You can be reached by iMessage at
Still shows that old telephone number - but it's greyed out.
Is there any way to get this deleted and get the new telephone number in here?

Put the first sim back in the phone, then turn iMessage off.

  • How could I change my telephone number from iMessage ?

    How could I change my telephone number from iMessage ? I've try in my Apple ID and doesn't work.

    Hi,
    On your iPhone Add the Apple ID
    On the Mac then Accept the pop up(s) that appear saying the iPhone is using the ID and iPhone number.
    Untick the old number in the list for Receive At and Start Conversation From drop down if it is the listed item.
    For complete removal you have to delete a .plist or two.
    Open a Finder window
    Use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key
    Select the Library that appears.
    Navigate to the Preferences
    Find com.apple.imservice.imessages.plist and com.apple.imessage.bag.plist and drag them to the Trash.
    Restart the app on the Mac.
    It will ask for the Apple ID.
    It should get the pop ups about the iOS device.

  • Changed iCloud phone number; not updated for keychain response after 3 days.

    Hi,
    I was correcting a keychain error that can occur (it seems) that asks for about 10-15 local keychain password checks upon booting.
    That issue is logged in the forum and easy to correct.
    What subsequently was required was resetting my keychains on my devices that required the security code challenge.
    Since neither of my pad or macbook are authorised to counter-authorise, I need to go via my registered phone number.
    All pretty basic stuff.
    So, when I realise that the security code message is being sent to my OLD cell-number I change it on my iCloud and expect it to change in my account and the entire system within 15-30 minutes, which would be quite normal and go from there.
    I was wrong.
    Since changing my phone number, which is still maintained on my iCloud account, I still get the system request stating the message is being sent to my old number.
    Yes, I have logged out of all my iCloud activities and rebooted and logged-in again to see if that has anything to do with it. To avail.
    Now it has been 3 days and the old number still appears in the security code request process on all devices on all panes that can be used..
    Any ideas???

  • How to stop Outlook 2007 from changing my telephone number format?

    I'm using Windows 7 and Outlook 2007 (and Exchange 2007 SP1).
    Now, in Outlook's contact, whenever I enter a telephone number, the stupid Outlook 2007 always tries to be smart and add brackets to the first few digits!  There's no brackets in tel number.  How could I make it stop from being too smart and changing anything?

    I've found another PC with XP and Outlook 2007, but I still can't find any service called "Windows Dialing".  But I tried it anyway.  Guess what I got: in this computer, a normal local telephone format isn't changed.  But when the number is in long distance format, ie +XX YYYYYYY, Outlook 2007 stupidly removes the '+' sign in front of it!
    I then tried in my first PC to see what would happen to international telephone number format.... it's OK, the '+' sign isn't deleted.
    What a f**k!  What's this ____ called Outlook 2007 which tries to reformat things it can't understand??
    I have exactly the same problem - I am in the UK and have a pile of UK numbers stored in international format (which most cell phones recognise and some generate automatically from incoming calls). So the number would be entered as +44 1234 56789. Outlook strips off the + and, because I sync with my pda, the numbers get exported to it in a broken state :-(
    In the UK, we don't drop leading digits - to dial a number I either dial 01234 56789 or +44 1234 56789. We don't really use local numbers a lot in the UK - it doesn't make any difference within a local area if I dial the full code, just the local number or the international version. So there is no need for Outlook to do anything.
    This is extremely aggravating - sure ly Outlook is not hard coded to use  US phone dialling methods?
    There must be a way to disable the automatic parsing of numbers - if not it is bug that needs fixing, IMHO...

  • Changing Contacts telephone number format

    Hi all. I bought an iphone 6 in USA and I am from Argentina. In the apple store (USA) the product was activated.
    Do you know how can I change the Contacts' phone numbers' format so as to avoid the use of brackets () ?
    I already selected the propper language for me (spanish) and the Region (Argentina) but the formats remain unchanged.
    I still haven't placed a SIM into the iphone because I have to ask the carrier for a Nano-SIM which I do not have at the moment. May this be the problem? When I insert the new SIM I will have the right formats?
    Thanxs!

    How or where do I change the telephone number in the settings for FaceTime?
    With the wrong number there i can't be reached with face time calls.

    Go into Settings, turn FaceTime off. Power the phone off/on. Go back into Settings, turn on FaceTime and let it activate. The phone number comes from the SIM and the activation message. It should populate the correct number.

    Hello Babyygrl23,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like your iCloud Apple ID has a phone number associated with it that you would like to update. If this is the case, after signing in to the linked website below, you will see a section on the left side of the screen labeled Phone Numbers. You can edit the phone number associated with that account from there.

  • HT5622 How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number?  I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

    How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number?  I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

    Create a new Apple ID for the second phone. If you are setting the phones up as new phone enter the ID you want to use on each phone.
    If both phones are already signed in to one Apple ID then use the settings app to change Apple IDs on one phone.
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on the Apple ID > sign out > sign in with alternate Apple ID.
    Note that if you have downloaded apps with the original Apple ID on the phone with the new Apple ID, those apps will still be associated with the old Apple ID and will require the old ID and password in order to update them.
