Change phone number associated with iPad

How do I change the phone number that my iPad is identified with?   I'd like the iPad to be identified with my wife's iPhone, not mine. Otherwise I cannot use face time. Any thoughts?

Set the iPad up with her Apple ID.

  • Change phone number associated with apple id

    Why can you not change the phone number associated with an apple id?  I recently bought a new iPhone 5s and gave my 4s to my husband.  When he put his sim card in the 4s, it seems like a message came up asking if he wanted to use that number for iMessage and I clicked yes never knowing it was going to change the phone number I have associated with my Apple id.  He is not tech savy at all and we both share the same Apple id. I have always had my phone number associated with it and so when I get an iMessage it comes on my Mac computer, iPad, and iPhone--which I like.  Now my computer and iPad only have his number with it and there is not an option to add my number back.  My phone still shows my cell number associated with iMessage.  I am afraid to update my phone in case it knocks me off of iMessage.  I have tried the signing in and out of IMessage and Face time on my computer and iPad and that does not help.  I just want to change the phone number associated with it.

    You could simply ensure that only the numbers and addresses you wish to use on each device are checked at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. However this isn’t an ideal solution because the other person can always change these settings from their device and have some fun with you and your contacts.
    You’d be far better getting them to delete your account from their device and have them create one of their own. If you are sharing an ID for some other service such as iTunes, you can continue to do so, you only need change the ID for messages.

  • TS4268 How do change your phone number associated with iMessage on iPad?

    when ipad was set up wrong phone number was entered for imessages and facetime. How do you edit or delete it and enter correct phone number?

    I believe this would work except the phone number associated with ipad is not correct. If I follow these steps, the wrong phone number would be setup once again since the iphone's number used at the initial setup of the ipad is not the correct number.
    Two different iphones:
    Setup now: iphone B with ipad A
    Need:iphone A with ipad A
    Does this make sense?

    How do I change phone number associated with my iPad?

    Obviously you must have an iPhone in order to associate the phone number with the FaceTime and Messages apps on your iPad. You haven't clearly stated what you want to do other than associate a phone number, so I assume these are the two apps that you want to associate the phone number with.
    If you are unable to add the phone number in the settings in either or both of these apps, you may have to sign out of both apps on the Phone and the iPad - and then sign in again on both devices in order to use the phone number for FaceTime and Messages on the iPad.
    This kb article explains how to do this in more detail.

    How do I change the phone number associated with my Apple ID and messages on iPad

    If you mean for iMessage and FaceTime, the number is based on the iPhone number you set up iMessage and FaceTime on.  If that number is no correct, sign out of these services on both your iPhone and iPad by tapping the ID (in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime) and selecting sign out.  Then sign in first on your iPhone and confirm that the phone number is correct.  Then sign in on your iPad.

    How do I change the phone number associated with my ipad mini wifi?

    Umm, incorrect. My new ipad retina wifi, and my wifes mini wifi both have a phyone number associated with them, in facetime and imessage. It syncs messages with teh iphone of that number, and facetime calls to that number go into BOTH devices... Yes, both devices ring when that number is sent a facetime request.
    Again, anyone know how to change the number phone number associated with a ipad wifi only, for facetime and imessage apps?
    Uhmm, no, the number does not belong to the iPad. It belongs to the iPhone the Apple Id used on the iPad is associated with.
    If you need to change that number, then you need a different Apple ID that is associated with a different iPhone number. Note, the number must belong to an iPhone with an Apple ID, otherwise it won't work.
    The iPad itself has no number associated to it. It is linked to an Apple ID which in turn is linked to an iPhone that has a number.

  • How do I change the phone number associated with my messages and facetime?  It's tied to my husband's number, and needs to be switched to mine.

    I'm trying to change the number associated with our ipad's facetime and messages to my number, not my husbands.  When I look under settings, it shows his number, but I don't see the opportunity to change or edit the number. 

    It will not send notifications for that number to that devcie if turnmed off but the number is still active if selected on other devices.
    Messages is lionked through the use of your Apple ID and any numbers or email associated to that ID can be set as notifications.
    The Phone numbers seem to be registered before email in messages and the easiest method for setup that I have found is to turn messages off on asll devices that you have under that Apple ID.
    Then start with your iphone first, turn messagaes on, wait a few minutes for it to completly register.
    Then go to the next device and do the same until complete, with each new device A prompt should come up asking if you want to associate the previous contact metyhod with this device.
    Here is a help topic from apple on messges as well.

  • How do you change the phone number associated with apple id

    I bought my wife an IPad 2 and when setting it up it said I could change the phone number later in settings.   Now when I get a text-- she gets a copy on her IPad.   I can't see where in settings to change this to her phone number.

    The phone number associated with an Apple ID is changed here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Click on manage my Apple ID and sign in. Then go to your profile and make the necessary changes.
    But your question is a little confusing. Controlling which device receives texts and Messages is done in Setstings
    Settings > Messages > Send and Receive from
    Make the necessary changes there.

    I changed out my old cell phone for a Motorola zoom and now the zoom has my old phone number associated with it's sim card. I just purchased a Samsung Android cell phone and would like to trade the sim from my new to cell to the zoom so I can have my old cell phone number back. The problem is the sim cards are different sizes. Is this something I can take to a store and get switched out?

    SRCLARK,
    Great question! You can go to the store and get a replacement SIM card at the store. Any corporate store will be more than happy to help replacing your card. http://bit.ly/3SdsA
