How do I change the phone number on my iPad

Somehow my iPad has my daughters phone number on it how do I change it to mine

Only iPhone numbers that are associated with an Apple ID can be used as the number at which you can be reached for FaceTime. I assume that you share an Apple ID with someone that has an iPhone. My wife, daughter and I all have iPhones and we share on Apple ID for purchases. We all use our own respective iPhone numbers for FaceTime and Messages on our iDevices and Macs.
You have to change the number in Settings>FaceTIme>You can be reached by FaceTime at. Select your own phone number in there and uncheck the phone number that is currently showing. If your own number isn't appearing, you will have to sign out of FaceTime on all iPhones and other iDevices associated with the Apple ID and you may have to sign out of Messages as well on all devices. Then you sign in again on the iPhone first in order to make all of the phone numbers accessible in the settings.
This explains how to link your phone number with FaceTime nd Messages.

  • HT5622 My husband and I share the same apple id for our iphones, how do we change the phone number associated with our apple id to his phone number? He is getting my messages because the ipod has my number in it not his?

    My husband and I have iphones that use the ame apple ID, but different numbers and email addresses, how do we change the phone number that is associated with his ipod to his phone number?

    Use his ID for Settings>Messages>Send And Recieve and for Settings>FaceTime.
    If he does not have an ID then
    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • How do I change the phone number that ipad is using for iMessage and FaceTime

    Since the latest iOS update my ipad uses my husbands phone number for iMessage and FaceTime. How do I change the phone number to match my iPhone?

    Sign out of FT and iMessage on both your iPad and your iPhone. Sign back in on the iPhone. Wait for everything to activate. Then, sign back in on the iPad using the same Apple ID.

    how do i change the phone number for imessages?
    i have set up an iTouch for my 10 year old son. To set up iMessaging between him and his parents i used my iTunes account but this picked up my phone number..........i now need to change this but cannot see how to do it in Settings. Any suggestions?

    Thanks, but i guess this means i have to create an email address for my son and hs own apple id?
    My aim is to link his mobile number to the iTouch but not to give him his own iTunes account....

    How can change the phone number in my iPad?

    If you have an iPhone on the same icloud account as your iPad, you should be able to connect your phone number to your iPad to get all your iMessages and FaceTime calls there.
    First, make sure that both devices are on the same iCloud account.
    When they are,  open the settings on your iPhone. Scroll down to "messages" Then, scroll down to find "Send and  receive". Make sure your phone number is listed and check off.
    Then, on your iPad, go to settings, and messages again. Find "send and receive". Then, make sure your phone number is checked off in both spots.
    You should now be able to send and receive iMessages and FaceTime calls on your iPad from your phone number.
    I hope this helps.

  • How do I change the phone number of an original iPhone

    My oldest daughter just got a new phone for xmas. She is giving her original iPhone to her sister (who's iphone was stolen) I erased the content, but how to I change the phone number to my younger daughter's #, which is still active.

    I thought the data erase feature was only on the new G3's? We did think she had password lock on, which is why we figured it couldn't be returned. We thought whoever found it (she knows she lost it on the school bus, there were only two other high school girls on the bus at the time) couldn't get in to figure out who it belonged too...now we realized she had turned it off and someone actually "stole it" v. "found it"

    Hello Babyygrl23,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like your iCloud Apple ID has a phone number associated with it that you would like to update. If this is the case, after signing in to the linked website below, you will see a section on the left side of the screen labeled Phone Numbers. You can edit the phone number associated with that account from there.
