HT3529 How can I change iMessages to my phone number from my apple id?

My iMessage and FaceTime stopped working out of nowhere and iMessage says waiting for activation. I can send and receive messages from my apple id but not my phone number. How do I fix this?

**Update**
Well now I cannot even send messages from my apple id...

  • How can I disable iMessage on my phone number now that I don't have an iPhone?

    I transfered my number to an iPhone for about 3 months. Now I'm on a different phone with the same number. Every time an iPhone user tries to send me a text/SMS message, it's sent via iMessage and I never receive it.
    I've removed the phone number from my Apple Support account. iPhone users still default to sending me iMessages. iPhone users can manually choose to send me SMS and I will receive the message. I receive text/SMS from every other type of phone on every carrier without fail.
    How can I get my number out of the iPhone/iMessage system entirely?

    Go to https://supportprofile.apple.com
    Log in with your Apple ID and password.
    Select the product you need to de-register (your iPhone, for example).
    Click Unregister

  • How can I permanently delete an old phone number from my 'receive iMessage from' list?

    I have just got a new contract and iPhone. I wanted to get rid of my old number because of people hassling me on it. However I can still receive iMessages through my old number even though I have a brand new phone and SIM card! I have de-selected it on the 'receive from' list, but I want to permanently delete the number for a fresh start. I have logged into my icloud account on apple but as I didn't actually register the previous device with apple there seems to be no option to remove it. can anyone help? Why can I not just swipe and delete this number!!! Ridiculous! So much for a fresh start   just turning the option off isn't the same.

    See Apple Support article TS5185. Note that although the problem that article concerns doesn't apply to you, the solution it describes does.

  • TS2972 How can I change my HomeSharing email address info on my Apple TV?

    How can I change my HomeSharing email address info on my Apple TV? I updated to a new email address through iTunes but now Apple TV won't recognize it and won't connect. Please help! Thanks.

    This is the first time I have ever replied to a question on here but I actually know this because I just figured it out for myself.
    On the apple tv go to settings>computers
    Then turn off home sharing.
    Now go back to the main menu and open computers.
    When you do it will give the option to use the previous home sharing settings or to use a new apple id.

  • How can I change the order of phone numbers in a contact?

    I have contacts that have more than one phone number (I am sure we all have those in this day and age). The importance of the phone numbers varies over time and I want to have the most important one as first on the list. How can I change the order that phone numbers are displayed within a contact?
    Thanks for any help.

    Currently, the order in which the phone numbers appear (in a contact) is dependent on the sequence to which you enter them. There is no way to change that order other than re-entering them in the desired order.

  • I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

    I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

    Several protocols may be used.
    Here I describe two of them.
    (1) the one which I use : install and use the "Convert to Lowercase" service available in the free WordService
    (2) copy your text, paste in TextEdit and enter the Edit menu.
    I guess that you will recognize the items in your English menu.
    I apologize but I don't know the English items.

  • How can I change the location for the backup from iphone to itunes?

    How can I change the location for the backup from iphone to itunes? I want to backup to my external harddisk and not the computer itself. How do I do it?

    Moving the iOS device backup location
    Open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up, or with Start > Run on older Windows.
    To move the current backup folder from C: to D: (for example) type in this command and press <Enter>
    Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    Where <User> is your Windows user name.
    To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command and press <Enter>
    MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    If your preferred drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "D:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.
    If you have Windows XP then you'll need a third-party tool such as Junction to link the two locations together instead of the MkLink command. The source folder is C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
