How Do I change my identity in messages

Since the last upgrade of iOS I show up as my wife's contact information. Where is the setting to re assign my proper identity to my IM tag. I would rather not pose as someone I am not.

Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and change to your contact information in there by deselecting your wife's email address and selecting your own - or by tapping the blue arrow next to her email address and select Remove this email address in the next window.

    when i send a text in iMessage the person receiving it gets it from my email address... how do i change that. and in message settings the receiving thing has my email and phone number but my phone number is gray and i can't click on it help

    Hello Todd:
    I had this very same problem when trying to activate iMessage and Facetime on my iPad. When I signed into my account, I actually wasn't even presented with the option of a phone number - notwithstanding the fact that I was contacting others (and being reached by others) by my phone number on my iPhone. Having both the iPad and the iPhone on, I kept trying to turn off and on both iMessage and Facebook in Settings on both my iPad and iPhone, hoping that that they would eventually sync. But this proposed solution by others was unsuccessful for me.
    Then, I found out what the problem was: When my iPhone was activated, it automatically registered my phone number for contact purposes. I was using iMessage on my iPhone for quite some time without actually being signed into my Apple ID account. When another device - such as an iPad or iPod - is being used for iMessage or Facebook, you are prompted to sign into your Apple account, using your username and password. These two devices will not register your phone number as an option for contact unless your iPhone is signed into your Apple account as well. In other words: your phone number will not be synced.
    Go into your "Settings" on your iPhone and click on "Messages". Scroll down and click on "Send & Receive" (which should be followed by your phone number). On the next page, you will be able to determine whether or not your iPhone is using the Apple ID for messaging purposes. (Note: This information applies for Facetime as well.) If it is using your Apple ID for messaging, than at the top, you will see "Apple ID: <your particular e-mail account>" in Blue text. However, if you are not using your Apple ID for messaging, than you will see the words: "Use your Apple ID for message". Even though below this you will see your phone number checked as the contact source, you will want to click the tab that says, "Use your Apple ID for message". Sign into your account (just as you must sign in for iMessage on your other devices), and just choose your phone number as the "Send & Receive" contact. (The option of the e-mail will be there too, but you don't have to check it. And later on, you can delete it as an option.)
    Now that all of your devices are signed in using your Apple ID, the other devices should register your phone number as a choice. It may take a little while, however. What I did was sign out of iMessage on my iPad, and then sign in again. If the option didn't appear, I just went back and signed in again, and kept doing this until the option for the phone number appeared.
    Again, this will work for Facetime as well. The solution is to sync your iPhone account with the other devices by using your Apple ID for messaging (and Facetime) purposes.
    I hope that this works for you, Todd!   ~ Brian

    Thanks for your help

    Right click and select Open front panel >> Convert.
    Change the vi as you need. then you can save it as a normal sub-vi.
    If you have Labview 8.6, maybe (i am not sure) you can edit the express vi. Express vis are supported in 8.6

  • How do I Change my email in message to my cell phone number

    How do I change my email address to my mobile # in iMessage?

    Go to Settings->Messages on your iPhone and turn them off, wait a minute and turn them on Again. 
    It should refresh the addresses, and the number should show in Messages on your iPad as an option.
    I just did this on my iPhone and iPad and it worked fine.
    You'll get a message on your iPhone that the iPhone number has been added to the iPad.
    You can then go to the "Start New Conversations From" section on your iPad and tap the number to set it as the default. 

  • How do I change iPhone 4 show messages. Count to another account

    How do you change the email account that is effected by the recent messages count option. I have three email accounts. You would think that the default account would be the one it points to.

    I hope your friend deactivated Find my iPhone before giving the phone to you, because otherwise the phone will be useless to you as Activation Lock will prevent your activating it. I suspect the friend did not deactivate Find my iPhone, because doing so would have reset the name of the phone to "iphone". So the best thing for you to do is to have your friend follow these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661

  • How do I change the way text messages look?

    I've had my blackberry pearl 8130 for a week, and boy has it been a confusing week.  I am wanting to change how my text messages look when I read them.  Now when I open it has date/time then sender then the message.  Its all seems bulky to me.  I just want to read the message.  Any ideas?

    What keeps you from reading the message? Perhaps I don't understand what you are asking.
    Do you not like the SMS message list view, or the way the SMS message is presented to you to read?
    Open your SMS folder > Menu key > Options > General Options > and see the settings for Display Time, Display Name, Display Order, etc. and see if changing any of that will help you.
    Good luck.

  • How can I change text of system messages?

    I'm developing application running in Russian language, it's not supported yet in development environment, but it's OK, I can read English. Our future customers know only Russian, so they don't understand text like 'row(s) 1-10 of 213' ('Row X to Y of Z' pagination schema). Is there any way to change some (not all) system messages shown during application run to Russian? I can't find how to do it in documentation and forum.

    Alexey,
    The pagination strings are customizable in the report template definition. There are a number of built-in templates that are prefixed with "default", which you can not customize, but they are followed by the report templates defined in your application which are prefixed with "template:". One commonly used template for example would be alternating-color-rows. If you edit this template in the template section of the application builder and scroll all the way down to the region titled "Pagination Subtemplate", you will be able to customize the pagination strings to your needs. Please refer to the item level popup help for the exact syntax that you need to apply. You may not be able to fully customize all pagination styles, but you should be able to define an acceptable pagination style that only uses Russian terms.
    Regards,
    Marc

  • How can I change the identity of a Mac?

    I was recently given Mac that was previously used by my dad.  He had originally named it with his name.  I have been trying to change it so it has my name on it (i.e. "Jeff Wykoffs Mac")  However, I haven't figured out how to do that completely.  For example, when I find this computer with Bluetooth with my cell phone it shows up with the name my dad gave it.  Is there a way to change that, and if so how do I do that?

    Simple solution. Create a new admin user account. Log into the new account and delete the old one. More complex solution:
    Macworld | Changing the short username in Leopard
    The above works in Snow Leopard also. Use the last procedure titled, "The Full Monty." Apple's procedure frequently fails to work for many users.

  • How can I change site identity from blank white pages to the site's logo on my App Tabs?

    Blank white pages show up on some App Tabs instead of the site's identity symbols, so I can't tell which site it is unless I hover over it with the mouse. How can I fix this to save the extra step?

    The new Account s signed into GameCenter right?
    Next tray:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • How can I change the Subject and Message in Adobe Send?

    Bonjour,
    Lorsque je veux envoyer un document, dans les cases "objet et message" pourquoi avoir installé du texte que je dois systématiquement supprimer pour y placer le mien.
    Avant avec l'excellent Adobe SendNow c'était simple et parfait.
    Bonne journée.

    Bonjour
    Merci pour votre patience et votre amabilité.
    Malheureusement ce mail ne répond pas à ma question.
    Je trouve absurde d’avoir renseigné les cases “Objet et message”, car chaque fois je dois effacer votre texte pour y renseigner le mien.
    Cela n’existait pas avec Adobe SendNow !
    Bonne journée,

  • How to change the "n/a" message when stock level unavailable

    When and if a product is not inventory controlled or the in stock quantity is unknown, the "In Stock" tag on the product page will read "n/a".
    How do I change the "n/a" message? Customer think that stock is unavailable but I want to replace the "n/a" message with "Available".

    This isn't what I was asking.
    "N/A" is shown when a product has no inventory listed which is different than being "out of stock". This is when a product has not been inventory controlled. In other words, the product's inventory has not been controlled by the system.
