how do i deactivate my contact number from my iphone without handset

Hi pauline203,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
See these instructions if you would like to unlink your phone number from an Apple ID you used with your iPhone:
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.
If you no longer have the iPhone, try this method:
Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
You can find the article with this information here:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage

I forgot my lock code and now my phone is disabled. How can I get the serial number if I cant get to the main screen or open the phone? I have an iphone 4s

Not sure why you need the serial # if you phone is locked.
Plug it into iTunes, and you can get the serial #, and also unlock your phone.

How to transfer the full contact details from my IPhone 3 G to my IPad 5?

I installed Icloud on all devices, including my Windows PC, but in contacts only the email adresses are transferred, not the full adress and phone details. How can I transfer the complete data?

Good morning Delphina
This sounds like you have a number of "groups" in your contacts. Typically these email only contacts will coem from yahoo or gmail or whatever email provider(s) you are using.
So it's a matter of selecting the correct contact list.
on your IOS device - tap contacts, tap groups, you should see multiple groups. Try selecting one of the unchecked groups, tap done and see if thiis is the one you want. You can clcik all of the groups on but then you may see duplicates etc.
Cheers

Iphone sync is making me crazy how can I get data to and from my iphone without syncing?

I'm a pc user and i'm sick of the iphone sync process jacking up my life when I decide to reinstall windows and the old itunes data is no longer there. how can I etup my iphone to not have to sync but transfer data to and from it like an android?

The only way to get data onto the phone is by syncing. To get some photos off the phone you can connect the phone to the computer with USB cable and use windows explorer to view and copy the photos from the phone to the computer. You could use a program like ibackupbot or something similar on your computer and get data off the phone to your computer using that

How do I remove my iCloud account from an iPhone without deleting the account?

I need to know if there is any way to simply remove it from this iPhone, but not delete it.
The only button I can see on the iCloud screen at Settings -> iCloud is "delete account".
As I use this account for both iTunes and iCloud, pressing it is not a risk I want to take.
Thanks in advance.

Don't worry - Delete Account just means that it is deleting it from the phone. Trust me I've done it a bunch of times with many accounts and they are all perfectly fine

How can I take off my messages from my iPhone without deleting them

I want to take off my messages from my iPhone 4, but I don't want to delete them. Is there a way to take them off and save them somewhere.

You can do it, but you need another library signed in to iTunes match. That second library shouldn't have any local files stored.
Delete the entry from that second library and it will ask you to confirm that you want to remove the file from the cloud. Confirm that you do.
Now, as long as you don't delete the file from your main library it will have an iCloud status of "removed" and won't be in the cloud or try add it again.
However, if you sign out of match on that computer and then sign in again it will then re-add it to the cloud, so this isn't a method to use if you tend to turn match on and off much.
I have had the Beatles Mono albums in my main library, but not in the cloud, for a while now without any problems.

Are you trying to reduce the visual clutter on the phone, save space on the phone, or limit the security exposure if your phone is stolen?
If you are only wanting to reduce the visual clutter and make scrolling through the list faster, you could set up a group on the computer containing only the contacts you want to see on my phone (called, for example, "Show on my Phone") and enable only that group inside Contacts on the phone. You might even have one or more existing groups that you could enable that way (maybe "Family" and "Personal").
