How do i set up my phone number as me instead of "wireless caller"?

want to know how to set my phone number as me instead of "wireless caller"...friends say when i call them it shows wireless caller instead of my name.

Would not the contacts entry on your friends devices have to have your name and number assigned to you?
Have them set up the contacts or address book to associate with you.
Some newer devices have a "Me" contact entry. I am not sure if that would be to show your name and number.
Tell your friends to do as I said above. post back and let me know if it worked.
Good Luck

  • How to work FaceTime on newest iPad & how do I set up my ph number to my iPad

    How do I set up my ph number to my iPad & having trouble with FaceTime. People can't get me & I can't get send messages or FaceTime either. Any tips?

  • How to NOT dial  text in phone number with a note like "555-1212 John only"

    I have some phone numbers that have text after them like "dont' call after 6". They were entered on Address Book on my desktop Mac. When I call these numbers from the contacts on the iPhone, it dials the letters also, which is annoying since they contintue beeping while the person has answered. Any suggestions on how to get the iPhone NOT to dial these parts of the number? Is there some magic character that makes it stop dialling? What does it do if the number is like 555-1212 x3434?
    Lloyd

    lslonim,
    You may want to take the text out of the phone number field, otherwise the iPhone will assume it's part of the number you are dialing. You can add the "don't call after 6" message in the Notes field so that you can still see the reminder, but the iPhone does not continue to dial after the recipient has answered.
    If you have a number that has an extension, you can set up the phone number to have pauses so that the extension can be auto-dialed when you select that phone number. Pauses are found under the "+*#" icon in the lower left-hand corner when you are adding a phone number to a contact. That will allow the iPhone to dial 555-1212, pause for a few seconds, and continue with 3434. You may have to experiment with the number of pauses needed to dial the number correctly.
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.

    How can I change keychain linked phone number because I cannot access account

    How do I set up iCloud Keychain on a new device if I don't have one of my other devices to approve from?
    If you don't have access to any of your other devices that are using iCloud Keychain, you can still set up iCloud Keychain on another device if you have these items:
    Your iCloud Security Code
    The device that is using the SMS-capable phone number you provided when you first set up iCloud Keychain. A verification code is sent via SMS to this phone number. If you don't have access to this number, contact Apple Support, who can verify your identity so that you can complete setup on your new device.
    If you have these items, follow the iCloud Keychain setup steps documented above. Your iCloud Keychain will then be pushed from the cloud to the new device.

    If you're talking about the phone number on your iPad for iMessage, the number is associated with the ID when you turn on iMessage on your iPhone.  If the number is incorrect, try turning off iMessage on your phone, wait a minute or so, then turn it back on.

  • How do I set up my phone to use in Europe

    how do I set up my phone now that i am in Europe and not in the USA

    If it's an unlocked phone, there is nothing to "set up". Just put in your SIM and fire it up.
    If it's locked to a US carrier, then you're out of luck. The only GSM carrier in the US is AT&T and they will not unlock iPhones under any circumstances.  Verizon and Sprint use CDMA. They will unlock the SIM for customers in good standing to use for international travel, but if service with them is terminated, the SIM slot will be re-locked.

  • ICloud you have the ability to NOT format phone numbers of contacts; this ability is not available on the contacts of iPhone. If I set-up a phone number in iCloud with NO parenthesis, ex. 123- 456-7899, then this format should be available on the iPhone

    In iCloud you have the ability to NOT format phone numbers of contacts; this ability is not available on the contacts of iPhone. If I set-up a phone number in iCloud with NO parenthesis, ex. 123- 456-7899, then this format should be available on the iPhone contact.

    That is correct is doesn't. Standardized formatting of phone numbers in the iOS app is more important because it supports contact from a variety of locations (gmail, hotmail, etc.). iCloud doesn't (not directly).

  • How can i add more a phone number in phone 4s

    Hi i'm new for IOS, i have got iphone 4s in my hand. i try to synchronize my contact list to iphone, it's work. but i would like to know how can i add more a phone number into a person in the list. default as show 1.mobile and 2.iphone
    Thanks

    If you have completed the info for a contact there will be additional spaces for more phone numbers. If you have not added a number yet, simply tap the word to the left of the blank phone number space to change the category.

  • TS4268 How can I remove an imessage phone number?

    How can I remove a mobile phone number from Settings>Messages>Send & Receive?

    Deactivate iMessage on both devices.
    Sounds like iMessage for your ID was initially activated on her device.
    Then sign in with the correct ID on your device and activate iMessage, it should like to your number.  If it does, repeat with her ID on her device and confirm everything is as desired.

  • HT204053 My daughters phone number is listed with my FaceTime and messages. How do I change to my phone number?

    I have a new IPad mini and it is linked to my daughters phone number. How do I change to my phone number?

    Use a different Apple ID for iMessage (and FaceTime).  You can continue to share the same ID for iTunes purchasing but you should have separate IDs for each person for iMessage and FaceTime.  To change the ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID.  Then do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
