How can I add a phone number to my iPod touch to start new conversation from another number

How can I add a phone number to my start new conversation

Hello brentfrommt. washington
To add a phone number to your iMessage account, you need to have an iPhone with your phone number on it. Once you sign into iMessage the iPhone it will link to all your devices with that Apple ID. Take a look at the article below for more information.

    Make sure that the iPad is using the same Apple ID as your iPhone. If the phone number still doesn't appear, log out of iMessage on both devices, log back in on the iPhone, wait until it activates, then log into iMessage on the iPad with the same Apple ID.

    - Does the iPod work?
    - If you have a PC, it just has to appear in My Computer to get pohtos saved to the iPod. Those are in iPod's Saved Photos) album into a computer

    - If the photos were synced to the computer you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or Phone view to get to to a computer.

    You need to log out of iMessage and Facetime, make sure your number is correct in Settings/General/About, then log back in again to send a new activation request.

  • Send and Receive  in iMessage only shows my AppleID and not my phone number. How do I add the phone number to where I can be reached?

    Send and Recieve in iMessage only shows my Apple ID and not my phone number and I can't send nor receive messages from any other phones except iPhones. How do I get my phone number to show up so that I can send and receive SMS text messages and not just iPhone iMessage texts between only other iPhones?

    Where is the Start new conversations from??? When I go to Send & Receive, there is no where to add or set to receive at my phone number. There is only a setting to Add Another Email and my Apple Id is already there. No place or way to add a phone number to receive at. I also have a lasting Waiting for activation... under iMessage ON but no place for my phone number although it shows up as My number under Phone.

  • How do I add my phone number to iMessage on iPad

    How do I add my phone number for my iPhone to my iPad for iMessage. On the settings on iMessage it only gives the options for an email. I have tried typing my mobile no in there but it doesn't accept it and there doesn't seem to be any other way to add it.
    I was getting iMessages for my mobile number on my iPad until I recently logged out and then back into my apple ID. Now the mobile number has disappeared on my iPad for both FaceTime and iMessage.

    Use a free email address like gmail.com.

    The only way is to get an iPhone with iOS 6 or later and use the same Apple ID for Settings>Messages
    iOS 6 and OS X Mountain Lion: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
    As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • How do I add a phone number to Favorites?

    How do I add a phone number to Favorites?

    Here's How:  Tap the phone icon from the iPhone's the home screen. Tap the Favorites icon at the bottom left. Click the "plus" icon at the top right to add favorites. This will bring up your full contacts list. Scroll through it or jump to a letter to find the contact you want. When you've found the name, tap it. This will bring up the contact's information, including all their phone numbers. Tap the phone number you want to make a favorite. That name and phone number are now listed in your "Favorites" menu. Next to the person's name is a small note indicating whether the number is work, home, mobile, etc. To rearrange the order of your Favorites, go to the phone app and tap the "Edit" button in the top left. This will bring up a screen with red icons to the left of the favorites and an icon that looks like a small stack of three lines on the right. Tap the three-line icon and hold it. The Favorite you've selected will become active (when active, it appears to be slightly above the other Favorites). Drag the Favorite to the position in the list you want it to have and let it go. Click "done" in the top left and your favorites will be reordered.

  • How can I dial a phone number from an email message directly

    How can I dial a phone number from an email message directly,
    But even before the selection i will change or correct the number?
    If I copy the number in the notebook, all spaces are filled with % signs.
    When I dictate SIRI the number I get the answer: I do not know the number
    If I copy the number in the phone selection (above) the number can not be edited afterwards.

    You can dial a number appearing in an email by tapping on it.
    But if you need to correct the number first you cannot edit a received email.
    To edit the number tap on the forward symbol and when the draft comes up you should be able to correct the phone number, copy it and paste into your Phone App. Then delete the forward email without sending it.
