How do I get messages sent to my phone number sent to my iPad

I used to recive iMessages sent to my phone number to my iPad, I got a new phone and I no longer receive them to my iPad. How can I receive iMessages sent to my iPad again.

On your devices check Settings/Messages/Send & Receive to ensure the "reached at" addresses are the same. I would also set the "new conversation" option to the same address on both devices as well unless you specifically want to keep them separated.

  • How can I get iMessage to recognize my phone number AND my email address?

    I used to get imessages using my phone number.  Then my iphone screen broke and I ended up buying a new one.  Now when I restored my iphone, the imessaging only recognizes my email address (the one connected to my apple id) and not the phone number.  The phone number shows up as a lighter type font and can not be selected.  I made sure this number is part of my apple ID but that did not help. I have deleted and restored the account twice. 
    The imessage is working but only using the email address.
    Ideas?
    Jennifer

    the link Ckuan put up helped me resolve this. thank you.
    i signed out of both imessage and facetime on my computer and iphone. (i actually wasnt signed into my account on my iphone)
    but i did sign in on my iphone
    i then made sure that my tel number was the only button ticked
    then once that was sorted i went back to my computer and signed in to both imessage and facetime and my number was now an option.
    i made sure it was ticked and all was ok.
    i think my problem occured from when i done a "reset all settings" ... i only done this reset because my keypad on my iphone was sticking and that was a solution to sorting that.
    thanks again

  • HT3529 how can I get messages sent to me to stop showing up on their ipods.

    My children and I share one Itunes account.  How can I fix my settings so that when people message me on my iphone from another Iphone,  it won't show up on my kids Ipods.  I rather my kids not see what people are sending me for messages. 

    Make a new Apple ID for each of your children, and use that for iCloud, FaceTime and iMessage.
    You can keep the 'old' Apple ID on their devices for iTunes and App Stores.
    This should allow you to all share the iTunes/Apps, but keep the messages separate.  Also, you can enable iCloud backup for each device under the unique Apple ID, and set it to automatically do a backup on a regular basis.

  • TS3899 How do I get messages sent out of my Outbox??

    Disable it. Without a reliable data connection, iMessage is not a good option for you.

  • How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat.

    How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see  the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    My iphone is broken and i am getting a new one sent out. How do i get everything from my old phone copied to the new one so its exactly the same??

    As long as they are already ticked in your iTunes then yes. Just to check do a sync and as long as everything stays the same you are good to go.

    How can i check messages sent to device through my Verizon account online? i want to open the messages and see the contents.

        I know it's beneficial to be able to check your message content ArmyQueer. Verizon messages offers a wide variety of convenient options to manage messaging. What make and model device is this? When did you download the application on it? Please be aware you will only be able to see content after the app had been downloaded and installed. Content prior to the app being active will not be available. Here's a link with additional info. http://vz.to/1k3gBxd

  • How do I get Messages in my mailboxes forwarded to me that are not left in my base box?

    Hi
    We are a new Fios user.  We have a "base box", Mailbox 1 and Mailbox 2. Messages left in the base box (mailbox 0) get forwarded w/o a problem. How to we get messages left in mailbox 1 or mailbox 2 forwarded to our respective emails. We are a two person household, with one phone number.
    Is there any way to do this? Currently, it seems that only messages left in the Master mailbox (mailbox 0) get forwarded.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks In Advance
    Jay

    Save the top level application and it will then save and keep the linkages to the subvi's. As long as you don't move the subvi's. This is caused when you move the subvi's from the directories that the top level vi is expecting them to be in or if you change the names of the subvi's and don't update the top level vi that is calling them. The other way this is caused is if you delete the subvi and a vi is using it. A good habit to get into is to save all subvi's in one directory under your top level applications directory. Hope this helps.

  • How do i view messages sent but deleted?

    does anyone know how to view txt messages sent from my device but previously deleted?

    jbom9000,
    That's a good question.  How long ago did you delete the message? What model phone are you using? If you had your messages backed up with the Verizon Cloud application, then you'd be able to retrieve this message when restoring from the Cloud.

  • How do you get messages on my ipad

    how do i get messages on my ipad.

    Assuming you're talking about iMessages, what you need to do is go to settings>messages>and turn on iMessages.
    After doing that, assign the account that it recieves iMessages to with your apple id (the same one you use to sign into these boards).
    Now you'll need to be connected to the internet (wifi or 3g) and then begin a message with someone you know has an apple id and is setup to recieve iMessages from it.
    You should be all set to use Messages on your iPad.
    Hope this helps.
