How do I register my iPhone telephone number with iMessage

when i send an iMessager to my fellow iMessage iPhone users, it uses my email address and not my phone number. So when my friends receive an iMessage from me, my message comes up under my email and not my phone number.
I've went into Settings, then Messages, and on this it states 'Receive At [my email address]' whereas my freinds setting have both their phone numbers listed and their email address.
Anyone know how to also register my phone number with iMessage?
My number is saved in my apple / iCloud account, byt my Apple ID is my email address?
Any help is appreciated.
thanks!!

I totally had the same problem as you two until about 3 minutes ago.
So what I did was:
1. Go to Settings > Messages, and turn iMessage to "off"
2. Switch your phone off and then back on
3. Switch iMessage back on, at this point my phone started to verify my phone number, and then it appeared along with Caller ID etc.
Hope this solves your problem too.

How could I change my telephone number from iMessage ? I've try in my Apple ID and doesn't work.

Hi,
On your iPhone Add the Apple ID
On the Mac then Accept the pop up(s) that appear saying the iPhone is using the ID and iPhone number.
Untick the old number in the list for Receive At and Start Conversation From drop down if it is the listed item.
For complete removal you have to delete a .plist or two.
Open a Finder window
Use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key
Select the Library that appears.
Navigate to the Preferences
Find com.apple.imservice.imessages.plist and com.apple.imessage.bag.plist and drag them to the Trash.
Restart the app on the Mac.
It will ask for the Apple ID.
It should get the pop ups about the iOS device.

You don't as far as I know.
You can only buy from the itunes store in the country in=which you reside.
"Purchases or rentals (as applicable) from the iTunes Store are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions, and are not available in any other location. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Store from outside of the available territory. Apple may use technologies to verify such compliance."

Requirements for iPhone 5:
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes 10.7 or later
The highest version of iTunes you can install is 10.6.3 which will not sync with the iPhone 5.

It's always a good idea to check the requirements before purchasing.
The person I spoke with at 1-800-MY-APPLE gave me totally different info...she said the iPhone 5 would in fact sync with the older version of iTunes and that I could restore from my previous iPhone 4 backup and also bring in my music that way. Hmmm....
I'm inclined to go by the published specs, but now I have to jump thru a bunch of hoops I wasn't expecting to.

How can i restore a iPhone 4s (ios7) with a back from from a iphone5 (ios8.1.1?)

how can i restore a iPhone 4s (ios7) with a backup from from a iphone5 (ios8.1.1)?
When I try Easing All Content and Restore. It backup's to ios7. Then I'm unable to install the backup that i have in the cloud.
Help!

Are you sure it's a 4S and not a 4?
You can't restore a backup made with a newer version of iOS to a phone running an older one. You must update the phone to the newer version of iOS, wipe it again, then restore the backup.
