  • Why can't I choose my phone number as my signature in text messaging?

    I am using iPhone 6.  Under settings I cannot choose to use my phone number as my signature.  It defaults to my Apple ID ( a personal e-mail) and I do not prefer to use that.  I have been into settings but I cannot change my messaging signature to be my phone #.  Please let me know how I can change this so that it works in the manner I prefer, not Apple's ID setting. 

    Axeman:
    My apologies for the lack of clarity.  Yes, "Do you mean it is being sent from your Apple ID instead of your phone number?"
    When I go in to settings>Messages > Send & Receive > My phone number is not a choice.  I Cannot choose it (as it is greyed out).  I am sure this is somehow related to using iMessage vs. text. 
    Since I use this phone both personally and professionally I'd like to just choose my phone number vs. e-mail.  Thanks for  your help so far!  Need to find the proper solution.

  • IOS5 displaying phone number instead of name in text message screen

    At the top of the text message screen, where it used to say the recipient's name, it now says their phone number.  I cannot find any settings as to change this.  It happens to others who have iMessage on.  If they do not have an iPhone, or their iMessage is off, it still says their name.

    I fixed this problem by:
    1. Turn iMessage off
    2. Turn iMessage on
    3. Verify contact is in contact list
    4. Deleting the text message series prior to the one you want to send.  Say you've texed Bob Dole 1000 times, delete the entire thread.  Then, hit new message, load Bob Dole from contacts, and send. 
    For me, this ended the above problem.

  • How do I unlink a phone number from iMessaging?

    Hi
    I've just changed from an iPhone 4 to a Blackberry Z10, and no one with an iPhone can get through via text to my Blackberry. I've rung Orange - nothing they can do. I've rung GeekSquad who insure the phone, also nothing they can do.  I've tried everything I can to unlink to number, but it has no effect.
    I have an iPhone 5 also, on another contract and can see its trying to send the message in blue as iMessage, but doesn't then try to send it as an SMS when that fails. 
    My Blackberry is my business phone, and often customers text me and many have iPhones - so I'm really in trouble until I can fix this, so any help greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi
    I've done this on both my old iPhone and my iPad, but it makes no difference other than actually whether the message is received anywhere.  If I untick the old phone number, and try and text my Blackberry from my new iPhone - the message still sends as an iMessage, but is not received by the Blackberry,  If I leave it ticked then I receive the iMessage on my iPad.  I need to unlink the phone number completely so that Apple no longer thinks its an iPhone.
    Thanks

  • I need to change my phone number on my business card. My card is in a PDF form. How can I change it?

    I need to change my phone number on my business card. I am using a Intel IMAC OSX 10.8. My card is in a pdf format.

    A JPG won't allow you to actually change the text, but you could blank it out & paste over it I suppose.
    Photoshop would only allow you to paste over it, not edit the text I think, but that may be your only option since whoever made it may have restricted editing rights.
