How do I change the number?

I bought a Iphone 4s from my friend with the sim card in it, and it still has his number in the phone. I have the serial number to it. The problem is that when I went to the sprint store, it said that the Iphone was either lost or stolen so I couldn't which my number from my old phone (android). Is there any other way of putting my number on the Iphone by like a serious reset so I can stop using my android?

Return the phone to your friend and get your money back.
If Sprint will not activate the device because it has been reported lost or stolen, there is nothing that can be done.
Maybe it's also time to look for a better friend.  Either they are trying to scam you or they have sold you stolen property.

  • How do I change the number formatting within a Cell Table in Microsoft Word?

    Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me out on an issue I've been having... I work for an accounting firm and we do a lot of financial statements. 
    I was wondering if we would be able to treat a cell table in Microsoft Word 2007 like I would a cell table in Microsoft Excel. Meaning, I would like to change the formatting of the numbers in the table to the "Accounting" (number) format so it
    aligns by the decimal point and use the $ signs and () for negative numbers.  We do use the link tables feature, however, most of our balancing pages just can't be done in Excel because of the way the text is written. It would be much harder to format
    the text if it were to be typed in Excel. We have also tried  creating an Excel sheet within Microsoft Word but it is the same as linking the tables... Again, a text formatting issue.  The only option is to use tables within Word but how do we change
    the number formatting to a "accounting" (number) format where the numbers would align with the decimal point and use () for the negative numbers. Is there ANY option for us to do this other than manually entering this information in using tabs?  
    If there are no options other than entering it in manually, please consider this as an option for your next software update. I believe that a LOT of people out there will be interested in this feature... My manager and I just attended a webinar on Microsoft
    Advanced Word Tips Tricks and Techniques and 75% of the attending people had this question but no answer.
    Thank you very much for your help!!!!!

    Word does not really have number formatting for table cells. You can align cell contents on the decimal point, though, by setting a so-called decimal tab stop.
    Option 1:
    - Select the cells for which you want to do this.
    - Display the ruler.
    - Click the Tab box on the left hand side of the ruler until the box contains an inverted T with a dot.
    - Click in the ruler where you want the decimal tab.
    Option 2:
    - Select the cells for which you want to do this.
    - Click the arrow in the lower right corner of the Paragraph group on the Home tab of the ribbon.
    - Click the Tabs... button in the lower left corner of the dialog.
    - Specify a tab position in the box, e.g. 1.5".
    - Select the 'Decimal' radio button under 'Alignment'.
    - Click Set.
    - Click OK.
    You will have to type the numbers as they should appear, including the $ for currency and the ( ) for negative numbers.

  • How do i change the number of columns within a text box?  I need to go from three columns to one.

    How do I change the number of columns within a text box?  I need to go from 3 columns to 1.  The insert column is highlighted and column break does not work for this.

    Pages '09 does not seem to allow layout breaks in Textboxes.
    Pages 5.2 has the same limitation.
    Use multiple linked Textboxes in Pages '09 to get the layout you want or create your layout in a Word Processing template in the document layer.

  • How do I change the number of rings on my phone?

    how do I change the number of rings on my phone?

    Call your provider and ask them to do it.
    This is not controlled from the iphone.

  • How do I change the number of rings on messages?

    How do I change the number of rings on messages. At the moment it rings twice and I miss it. Could do with being quite a few rings more.

    This is determined by your carrier. It isn't a number of rings - it is based on time beginning when the call is received at your carrier's servers.
    I believe with AT&T in the U.S. the maximum is 30 seconds. This does not equate to a full 30 seconds of ringing with the phone since there is some delay involved between the carrier receiving the call and it reaching the phone.

    Facetime is using my husband's cell phone number instead of mine. How can I change the number to mine in face time?

    You need to set up the accounts in System Preferences/Accounts, then activate Fast User Switching.
    That way you can quickly log in to your own account - then back to his.
    You should obviously have different passwords.

  • How do you change the number of rings before FIOS goes to voice mail?

    Currently my FIOS residential service picks up voicemail after 4 rings, thereby negating my answering machine on my phone. It is then hit or miss for the system telling me if we have a voice mail. I would prefer to use my phone answering machine
    How can I change the number of rings on FIOS to 6-8 more rings, in order for my phone answering machine to pick up?
    Thanks

    Call your voicemail access phone number and go to settings. There is an option for that.

    how do i change the number on imassage?

    The only way to change the number is to change the SIM card. If you recently had your number ported, then you need to turn iMessage off, wait a few minutes and then turn it back on again. After it reactivates, then check the Send and Receive area.

  • How can I change the number in iMessage send and receive on my iPhone 5c that is gray?

    I recently bought a iphone 5c and when I activate it, the imessage automatically set the number in send and receive, but the funny thing is the number that is registered is my number in another network and is grayed out, How can I change the number to the sim that I'm using in the phone?

    HI,
    As far as I can tell you cannot delete the ID when Only one is listed.
    This would suggest that you have to add the second (Correct) one and then delete the first (wrong) one.
    I can't say I have tried this yet.

  • How do I change the number of plot areas in a Mixed Signal Graph

    How do I *programatically* change the number of plot areas in a Mixed  Signal Graph?  I recognize that the developer can choose to add or  remove a plot area during edit mode but I want to select between 2 or 3 visible plot areas and scale the plot areas appropriately.  Is there a property that tells me how many plot areas (or yscales) there are?  I also need a property that I can write to as to set the number of plot areas available.
    Aside from manually making too many plot areas and then hiding the unneeded plot areas how can I do this?

    Hello,
    I don't think that is possible - I searched the property and invoke nodes but didn't find something to do that.  This would make a great product suggestion though, which you can submit (it goes directly to R&D) by clicking the word feedback in the bottom left corner of the Contact NI page linked below:

  • TS3899 How do you change the number of emails displayed on ios7?

    Since I have upgraded my phone to ios7 my phone doesn't display as many emails as it used to. How do I change the settings so that my phone retains more messages?

    You cannot change that, it is not user programmable. That is handled by your carrier, and it is not based on the number of rings, it is based on time. Call your carrier and see if they can extend the time for you. They may not be able to do this.
