IOS 6 - iMessage does not verify my phone number

Hello.
After updating to iOS 6, my phone can't verify a phone number for using iMessage.
Same situation: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16834327?searchText=how%20to%20solve%20iMe ssage#16834327
And my phone keep sending activation messages - i see it in a detailed bill.
Any ideas are welcome,thanks!

Hi,
My Apple ID profile does not contain my mobile (well either of them actually) number it make no difference to iMessages.
To get an iPhone Number on the Mac the Apple ID must be added to an iPhone AND when you get the Pop ups on the Mac they should be accepted.
If the the Apple ID is on the iPhone check it is set for Messages and not just iCloud.
Check it is also set as a Send and Receive item And that the iPhone Number is itself (this should be greyed out so you can't turn it Off).
If the apple ID is missing then add it.
If the iPhone Number seems to be turned Off then Remove the Apple ID
Set the iPhone to Airplane Mode.
On taking it out of Airplane Mode check the iPhone Number is active for iMessages and Verifies and logs in.
Check by sending a Message to the Apple ID so the Mac sees it.
Now add back the Apple ID and make sure that verifies.
Now restart the app on the Mac.
this should prompt the Pop ups.
Accept these to add the iPhone number to the Receive At list (It will also be added to the Send From drop down list)

IMessage does not show my phone number on iMac.

iMessage does not show my phone number on iMac. My family has 3 iPhones we sync to this computer and only the other two are available to checkmark in preferences on the iMac. I tried updating my profile online, but only my number is listed on my account. iMessages works fine on my phone. I've tried signing out and back in and rebooting.

My imessage does not have the phone number correct number

I did the new update OS7 for my iphone 5. When I turn on imessage it makes a werid number which is not my phone number. I have called apple support and no one has been able to help. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. It also does this to facetime. I have checked and made sure my account setting has my number which it does. I wanted to make sure before I do a full wipe. I believe it happens when it goes to activate though imessage.

It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
          Mail ▹ Preferences...
The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
          Send new messages from:
choose
          Account of selected mailbox
Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
          Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
If there's only one server in the menu, select
          Edit SMTP Server List...
and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
          Card ▹ Make This My Card
from the menu bar.

My iMessage does not recognize my phone number under "send and receive"

I had to restore my iphone and now it is unable to connect to iMessage. It says "waiting for activation" and then it will fail. Under send and receive, my phone number appears to be clicked on, but does not have the check mark next to it.

IMessage is not recognising my phone number

Myphone number in iMessage has greyed out after installing iOS8 and is not sending iMessagees.
also my wife's iPone rings at the same time as mine

Hi faithmeg,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing, and/or what you are seeing when you try to login on your new iPhone 5s. Usually, when FaceTime/iMessage is used with a phone number, that phone number and the Apple ID are linked, as outlined in the following article:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
If you are having issues signing in or activating FaceTime/iMessage on your new iPhone, you may also find the troubleshooting outlined in this article helpful:
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support

Imessage does not combine the telephone number to one username in address book

Hi guys,
last week I received an Imessage from a unknown number, I replied "who are you?" and he replied "it's me.. name and surname". I have this person in my address book but I continue to receive imessages (with the tel number) and imessages cannot combine his tel number to his name, if we imessage using email address than I can see his name and surname.
If I send a message to him with this procedure: address book, open his contact, press the button send message, choose the tel number, press send, then I see in imessage message list that I have sent a message to his number, not to his name and surname.
I do not use the Apple Address Book but the google address book. Every other user is working fine. From Viber and whatsapp i can send messages to the same user without this problem.
I have also tried to delete and recreate his contact many times, both from gmal web page and from the Iphone itself but then Imessage is not able to "link" his tel number to his name and surname.
Imessage recognize his number as Imessage user so it send imessages and not sms, but in the imessage messages list I can only see his telephone number and not his name and surname.
I cannot find a solution, attached a picture taken from my phone, I choose "andrea ...surname" from the address book, sent the imessage, immediately IOS changed "andrea ..surname" to +393402433...
Thanks for suggestion, ciao.

This problem was solved after upgrading to IOS 6.

Hi,
Yes i have tried all of these transactions, these all relate to individual sales orders or production order costs.
Im looking for a report showing the costs for a range of sales order line items, exaclty like KOB1 but for sales orders. KVBI does exactly what I want but the material filed is not populated.
Is there a way to populate this field as part of the settlement?

IPhone 4G syncing with iTunes The screen does not show my phone number and backs up to an old file from four months ago.

iOS 6.0 was available this week, so I updated my iPhone 4S. At first it showed a long yellow (other bar) of 10GB, then took the entire day to update my photos (about 20,000 of them. So I tried restoring the phone and the message on iTunes was that I had restored from a different phone. Now I cannot get my phone number to show up on the summary page of iTunes. It says n/a.
And it restores from a backup in June. And those are locked. Any ideas how to get back up to date?
Thanks,

Never mind. It updated itself...

HT5395 AFter installing IOS 7 Imessage does not recognize my Apple ID password.

Itunes and Icloud still recognizes my Apple Id password. Whenever I try utilizing Imessaging on my IMAC it shows that the account is inactive and offline. When I send a text message to another Iphone etc. from my phone and ipad mini it will only send it as a message (green bubble) and not an imessage (blue). On my Imac, I am asked to sign in with my Apple ID password. When I do I get an error message that says "server encountered an error processing registration, try again later." This has been going on for a week now.

Hi,
Did the repair of the Hard Drive involve the Mother/logic board at all ?
At OS X 10.8.2 Apple introduce a security measure that involves using the Mac's Serial Number.
It is held on the main board and can be read by the Apple icon Menu > About this Mac
Click twice on the current OS X level. It will change to the Build Number (another way of counting the OS) and then to the Serial Number.
If the Number is missing you will have to visit an Apple Store or an Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) to have it put back.

I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email. It has said "Verifyng" since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I checked my iCloud settings for that email address and it shows "pending".

I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email address to use to send/ receive messages. It has said "Verifyng" beside it in settings since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I have also tried Adding it as a new email address several times, but get the same outcome. I can still send/ receive texts from my phone number, just not from the email address.
In my iCloud settings under Contact Information for that email address and it shows "pending". When I select "Resend Verification Email" I get "Cannot Connect to iCloud".

IMessage does not work after upgrade to iOS 8.1.3 to my iPad 4

iMessage does not work after upgrade to iOS 8.1.3 on my iPad 4

I Fixed it by trying to sign in with a different ID and canceling when it asked For a password and then signed in with my ID and it works! No more error message. I got this idea from another discussion. Thank you for replying though.

I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with

I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??

I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Yu can make an appointment at the the Genius Bar of an Apple store or try:
fix for Home button

Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

Many, many thanks for both of you Todd and Rick.
to Rick:
I suppose you mean the Color Settings in Project Settings as follows:
- Working Space: None
- Match Legacy ... Gamma Adjustments checked ON
But it does not correct the colors in effects. And checking or unchecking Make Movie/Output Module Settings/Color Management/Profile/Preserve RGB does not make any difference.
to both of you:
Those parts of the video image that does not have color effects are just fine. In these parts the color is preserved when reimporting to FCP. However, those parts having color effects (except Levels, as decribed earlier) have altered color results. So, only the parts having effects affecting color are misinterpreted in the image area. The mismatch is of course seen in AE, before making the movie.
What I ment with "Color Management not working properly" is that (instead of "disabling" it) Color Management does not seem to be able to correct this "misinterpretation" or difference in effect handling between AE 6 and 10.
So, would you have any solution for this problem?
Again, many thanks for your fast replies!
