The phone number for the tablet is just an identification for the VZW network. That number doesn't allow for you to make or receive phone calls or even text messages with it. You've been forwarding everything from your Note 2 to an abyss. My advice is to find someone with a used phone that can take your sim card from the Note 2 and then activate it on Verizon's network.

Sadly, as Call Bliss uses the built in Do Not Disturb feature, it requires that your screen be locked in order to function.
I'm hoping (and have submitted feedback) that Apple will beef up DND to work even when the screen isn't locked.

I have the 5S and there is a check mark next to no sound when phone is in lock mode that prevents me from getting my calls and messages. How can I turn that off? Clicking it does nothing. Please help! Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to try to help me. . I checked and the Do not disturb is off. The check is still there stopping calls from coming in when phone is locked. Any other ideas? Thanks again!

How do I stop my 2 iPhone 5s from sharing calls and messages

MMyself and my husband each have iPhone 5 with newly down loaded iOS 8.1.2. Now they are sharing incoming calls and messages . How do I stop this. We only have 1itunes acct.

Easiest solution is to use different Apple IDs for iCloud. You can still use the same one in iTunes/App Store, but for iCloud, one of you make a new Apple ID, sign out of the shared Apple ID under iCloud, and then sign in with the new Apple ID there. The Continuity feature's basic requirement (the master switch if you will) is that the devices be using the same iCloud account. This will also prevent problems such as accidentally deleting or modifying each other Contacts/Calendars, running out of the free 5GB of iCloud storage, etcetera.
Only use a shared Apple ID for iTunes/App Store.
For iCloud/Messages/FaceTime/GameCenter, use a unique personal Apple ID, unless you want to get each others iMessages, FaceTime calls, contacts and calendars and game progress.

The short solution is to go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.
However, as Csound points out, you should not really be sharing an Apple ID with anyone. See: How to Stop Sharing an Apple ID.

I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up. I went ahead and backed up and found that my texts, phone calls and messages did not backup.

I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up. The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12. I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup.
Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today? Please help if you can...thanks!

I found the answer on:

It worked great!

Block calls and messages on iphone

How do I block calls and some messages--am a verizon user of iphone 4s

You need to log onto your Verizon account (www.verizonwireless.com). One of the options on the main screen is blocking numbers. You can block up to, I believe, five for free. There are additional options that cost a monthly fee.

Renewing blocks on specific numbers for calls and messages

I need to renew existing blocks on specific numbers that show an expiration date of today (8/1/11) How do I do that? The numbers still show on the lines, but I have no way of verifying that the blocks are still in place or removed. Please help. Thanks.

Hi Cgriff,
The free Call and Message block that we offer lasts 90 days. However, please note that you are able to change this at any time. For example, the block can be removed before the 90 days is up. In your case, you mention that you want to renew the block. Youc an do so by going in and removing, then re-adding the block. This starts a new 90-day block. It is easier tis way, since you can change the information whenever you want. Below are the steps to follow, for your convenience.
Call and Message Blocking can be added/removed online by signing in to My Verizon using your Account Owner user ID and password and doing the following:
1.        Click on “Block Calls & Messages” icon located under “Plan” in the “I Want To” section at the bottom of your home page.
2.        Click on the “Call and Message Blocking” tab (next to Parental Controls.)
3.        Enter up to five 10-digit numbers under the Call and Message Block tab and click "Apply" once completed.
We also offer Usage Controls, which does so much more than Call and Message Blocking. You can find the information for Usage Controls here:

Thank you for your posting and have a good day!

If I get a Skype phone number will I get calls and messages on my computer?

If I get a Skype number will I be able to recieive calls and messages on my computer instead of on a phone?

Hi, Cry1,CRY1 wrote:
Yes was the answer which is helpful. If my computer is on but not on Skype how will I know that a call is coming in ...You would not be able to tell if an incoming call is ringing if you are not logged in on Skype. If you are not signed on to Skype, there are two options:- The call is routed to voice mail- You set up call forwarding to a mobile or fixed line number, either of which requires a Skype Subscription or that you purchase Skype Credit to pay for call fees.- Look to set up SpinVox, which will send you a fairly good translation of a voice mail message to a text message. The SMS messages usually arrive within five to 15 minutes of a voice mail being recorded. CRY1 wrote:

My texts have stoipped getting through to one of my contacts. I can phone him and I can receive his calls and messages. I am the only one of his contacts whose texts are not getting through. We have both restarted our iphones but the problem continues.

Have you talked to your carrier (or your friend to his)? Could be an issue at their end.
