  • 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 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.

    Hello Boogie3339,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Please see below on how to change your phone number for iCloud Keychain:
    Change how new devices can be approved
    After setting up iCloud Keychain on your Mac, you can change whether your iCloud Security Code can be used to approve iCloud Keychain on new devices. You can also change the iCloud Security Code or the phone number used to verify your identity after you use the iCloud Security Code.
    In iCloud Preferences, make sure Keychain is on, click Account Details, then change your iCloud Security Code settings.

    How do I change the phone number associated with my Apple ID and messages on iPad

    If you mean for iMessage and FaceTime, the number is based on the iPhone number you set up iMessage and FaceTime on.  If that number is no correct, sign out of these services on both your iPhone and iPad by tapping the ID (in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime) and selecting sign out.  Then sign in first on your iPhone and confirm that the phone number is correct.  Then sign in on your iPad.

    Umm, incorrect. My new ipad retina wifi, and my wifes mini wifi both have a phyone number associated with them, in facetime and imessage. It syncs messages with teh iphone of that number, and facetime calls to that number go into BOTH devices... Yes, both devices ring when that number is sent a facetime request.
    Again, anyone know how to change the number phone number associated with a ipad wifi only, for facetime and imessage apps?
    Uhmm, no, the number does not belong to the iPad. It belongs to the iPhone the Apple Id used on the iPad is associated with.
    If you need to change that number, then you need a different Apple ID that is associated with a different iPhone number. Note, the number must belong to an iPhone with an Apple ID, otherwise it won't work.
    The iPad itself has no number associated to it. It is linked to an Apple ID which in turn is linked to an iPhone that has a number.
