How do I register an iphone5 number to work on my ipad

How do I register an iphone5 phone number to work for i-messaging on my ipad mini 2 ?

Hey there ToadMok,
It sounds like you need to link your phone number to your Apple ID to be able to use the Hand Off function to be able to text from your iPad Mini. First use this article to link your phone number to your Apple ID:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
Then use this phon number to setup Hand Off, for your devices:
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

    Hello Nikkii,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
    Troubleshooting telephone-number activation (iPhone only)
    After each step, toggle FaceTime and iMessage off and then on in Settings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Ensure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: If Set Automatically is on but the incorrect time zone is displayed, turn Set Automatically off and then choose the correct time zone, date, and time. Then turn Set Automatically on again.
    Ensure that FaceTime has not been restricted: Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime.
    Verify that you can send SMS messages. You need a valid SMS messaging plan to activate FaceTime.
    Contact your carrier to verify that there are no restrictions or blocks on text messages. Blocks on text messaging will prevent iMessage and FaceTime registration.
    If you are unable to activate iMessage or FaceTime on a device after remote wiping it, wait at least 24 hours and try again.
    If "Waiting for Activation" is displayed, leave FaceTime and iMessage enabled for 24 hours. Toggling FaceTime or iMessage off and on will cause the registration process to start over.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • How do I get my Jawbone Era to work with my Ipad 2

    How do I get my Jawbone Era to work with my Ipad 2?  The Ipad shows the Jawbone as synced, however, when I play a video it does not play through the Jawbone, only the Ipad speaker.

    You need to pair the iPad with the bluetooth keyboard. I don't understand how you could have used it even once without doing this process (unless whoever sold the iPad and keyboard to you did this for you?) but perhaps it has somehow become unpaired. There should be instructions with the bluetooth keyboard on how to pair it with an iOS device like your iPad, but the general process is pretty straightforward as described here:
    iOS: Third-party Bluetooth accessories
    If you can't find the pairing instructions/user guide that came with the keyboard then look on the manufacturer's website, they'll almost certainly have downloadable User Guides containing the info on pairing.

  • How do I get my iTunes Store to work on my iPad?

    How do I get my iTunes Store to work on my iPad?

    Assuming that you mean that you can't connect to the iTunes Store ....
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.
    Or try this ...
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
    Or this ...
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Or .....
    Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or ....
    Reboot your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.

  • How do I delete a large number of songs off my iPad

    I have a large music collection and have downloaded a large number of songs onto my iPad (10GB).  I don't need that much music on my iPad and would like to put the songs back in the cloud.  I don't want to have to delete thousands of songs one at a time by swiping.  What is the best way to do this?
    I have a 4th gen iPad and I have iTunes Match.

    Then I suspect you do not have iTunes Match enabled. Using that "delete all" command in the Settings does not remove the music from the cloud, nor does it disable iTunes Match. With iTunes Match enabled you will still see all the music.
    So go to Settings > iTunes and App Store and make sure iTunes Match is set to ON (green).

  • How do I register the serial number for Acrobat when the window disappears?

    I want to use Adobe Acrobat for the first time and I got a window for the serial number.
    I had the wrong paper in my hand and typed the serial for CS5 which was denied.
    I found the correct paper with the serial number for CS 6, but the window for typing it in doesn't
    return to the screen.
    I can see a getting started window flash by, but it doesn't stay on-screen long enough to read what it says.
    I don't know how to get the window for the serial number for CS6 to be entered.

    Hello Judy,
    one way is to deinstall your CS6 in combination with a reboot. After reinstalling should CS6 start now with the registration mask.
    Good luck!

  • How do you register your mobile number with imessaging?

    When I want to send something to my phone from my ipod.. it won't regiser my mobile number? Why? Like I've tried, and it will only allow my e-mail to go threw.

    Turn off iMessage then turn it back on.
    You do have an iPhone and you are in the wrong place?
    If not, you can't send from your mobile number on your Touch.

  • TS3367 How do I change the phone number in FaceTime on my iPad?

    Somehow my daughters phone number is in my settings. I need to change to mine so that I can receive messages and FaceTime on my iPad how do you change it?

    Hi Lori284,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  You can correct your phone number for FaceTime and iMessage by following this article:
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
    First remove the existing phone number:
    Additional Information
    Unlink a phone number
    To remove a phone number from an Apple ID, sign out of FaceTime and Messages on your iPhone:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    This should remove your phone number from other devices using the same Apple ID with FaceTime and Messages. If the phone number is still available on other devices after you sign out of FaceTime and iMessage on the iPhone, you may need to sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your devices, then sign in to FaceTime and Messages again on devices you want to use.
    Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
    Then, you can use the top of the article to activate iMessage and FaceTime on the iPhone that uses your correct number.
    Cheers,
    - Ari
