How do I get my iphone to display my name in texts?

I have a problem, my wife and I have iPhone 4S, they are unlocked.  We are on T-Mobile.  Everything works fine except this... When my wife sends a text message to ANYONE, even me, it says MY Name,  not hers.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  I would really appreciate it!
Thanks

you need to call T-Mobile and change her usename on the account.
Right now both cell phone numbers on the account have your name on it

  • How do I get character viewer to display the names of the radicals in Japanese, as they were until Lion

    In Leopard, Character Viewer displayed the names of the radicals of Japanese characters in Japanese.
    Now I have Lion, the radicals all have English names which are totally different and impossible to search phonetically. I can't find a way to choose the language of the Character Viewer. Do I have to set the whole iMac to use Japanese as its basic language? That would be a pain for everything else.
    Thanks for looking.

    If you put Japanese at the top of the Langauge tab list, but do not logout/login, then only newly opened apps will appear in Japanese.  That way you can get only Character Viewer in Japanese.   Maybe this will also work

    Another approach would be to open the Character Viewer app and modify its .lproj folders.
    If you still have a copy of Leopard, you may be able to transplant its Character Viewer app to Lion and use it as an independent app.

    I suggest contacting your carrier, typically if there is an issue with caller id its an issue with the carrier.

  • I have an ipod touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop.  Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login.  I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't.  How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

    It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty.  You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod.  If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
    If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

    How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title
    When playing a music-title the name of the title and it's progress is displayed in the box at the top of iTunes, even if the music is already stopped or ended. This display is impeding f.i. when copying music-albums to iPhones and watching the progress. Can anyone tell me please how to make the display of the last played music-title disappear?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    OK, thank you very much, fiend.
    However: Since yesterday afternoon my e-mail-acount is being flooded with 50+ e-mails every few hours which are not at all related to my question. I'm copying the properties of one e-mail as a sample. Could you please organize this flood to stop or tell me what to do?
    Thank you very much!

    How to i get my iphone 5 unstuck from a frozen apple logo

    Hello Beau460,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • IPhone 4 crashed during ios update (5.0.1) and won't restore. anyone know how i can get my iPhone working again?

    iPhone 4 crashed during ios update (5.0.1) and won't restore. anyone know how i can get my iPhone working again?

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 for details.
    Then you can restore your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

    Hey RavenDawn1002,
    If you have a Windows computer, you'll want to run through the steps in this article:

    If you have a Mac, then use this article instead:

  • My phone has the correct AppleID in the in settings section but asks me to login with one that isn't mine.  I deleted the ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with mine. How do I get my iPhone on the same page?

    My iphone4 has the correct Apple ID in the information settings section and asks me to login to my ID most of the time but when I try to update my apps, it asks me to login with an ID that isn't mine.  I deleted the wrong ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with my own ID to update apps.  How do I get my iphone on the same page?

    How did you obtain these apps? All apps are DRM protected & tied forever to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another Apple ID(account), nor can they be updated using any Apple ID other than the one that was used to originally obtain them.

  • How can I get my iPhone to stop promting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I've checked settings for iTunes

    How can I get my iPhone 6 to stop prompting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I have verified in settings that my acct is listed in itunes & App Store, as well as icloud. i can download new apps fine. Have shut down phone and re-powered, have tried plugging into my iMac while signed into my iTunes acct. Can't figure out what to do next?

    Is the comp a synced device to your apple ID and approved as an active device for this synchronization?
    Just cloud the sync once, activate the comp to your apple I'd in iTunes, ensure all software is up to date, turn on home sharing between the devices and you can reinstall the apps from the apple id purchase history via download.
    You basically cleaned out the canonical data apple uses to validate all that, which was backup data. Like iOS devices have the purchased option on the App Store now, syncing the devices via the home sharing and properly activating them will give your comp the purchased cloud and free up 10gs of space on the precious solid states smaller drives.
    Hope that helps...
    If you need to know the menu to find this info, let me know. But the info is easily accessible in the help menu.
