Ipad 2 is associating with mobile phone # instead of it's own #

Hi I recently update to iOS 6.1 on my iPad and when it was all finished with the update i was distracted when it asked me about my phone # for facetime and messaging and i just hit ok then later I realized it pulled my mobile phone # into it instead of it's own number and I can't get it out of there. I restored it back to factory settings and a back up before I turned on my data plan and added it's own number and I still can't get rid of my mobile phone number or change it back to it's own data plan # HELP!

That doesn't solve the problem. I have all those defaults. But in Firefox, it won't let me select for "Portable Document Format" to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" which it used to let me and which is what the Mozilla Firefox help stuff says to do. I can select Adobe Reader but then it downloads it and opens it in a separate reader window rather than using the plugin. If I select to let Firefox "Preview in Firefox", then the Firefox built-in PDF reader will display it. I have added an add-on "pdfViewerSwitcher" which then lets me display in the Adobe Reader plug-in but only after first displaying it in the Firefox preview. So that verifies that the Adobe Reader plug-in works. But I can't set it to always use the Adobe Reader plug-in.
I have some reasons for wanting to use the Adobe Reader plug-in. I use Nuance Power PDF Pro for editing and doing other things with pdfs.
This all used to work and stopped working at some point in the last couple months. And if you search the web, you will find I am not the only one with this complaint.
I don't know whether it is Adobe's fault or Mozilla's fault but at least one of them is broken. And I think it is Firefox since it won't even let me select it but does let me select it for Adobe Forms.

Communication with mobile phone's modem

Dear All,
I have a work in which i need to send and receive SMS from a desktop app. I have seen that smart phone has built-in GSM modem so i am thinking to utilize a mobile phone instead of purchasing standalone GSM modem.
I looked into google a lot and found few examples on the net especially on the codeproject.com where the authors shown how we can send SMS from a modem or mobile phone (for example: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/38705/Send-and-Read-SMS-through-a-GSM-Modem-using-AT-Com). I have downloaded and tried few of the programs but nothing worked. In all of the programs one thing is common that they are using Serial ports for communication while i am connecting my mobile to pc with a USB port. I am not sure is there any way i can do it in java or i can virtually convert my USB port to com port.
Any help and suggestions will be appreciated.
Many thanks
Umer

I have AT&T, and I know that they prohibit modem tethering (what you're referring to) with standard data plans. I have a $20/month unlimited data plan but if I use it tethered to my computer, they may cancel my service because I broke the contract. You can do it anyway, however, but in very small amounts. It is possible for them to track this, but if you only use it sparingly, then they either won't notice or won't care. Alternatively, you could buy the $60/month data tethering plan, which would function exactly the same, except it would be legal.
Most, if not all, wireless providers have the same policy. That's why they'll never help you with this.
If you want to do this anyway, I recommend a Sony Ericsson W600. I've been using this phone for a long time, and it's fantastic. It doesn't have 3G though. Google for "osx modem drivers" or something like that to find more info. All these drivers have been written by some nice hacker, and some work better than others, so if this is your only consideration in buying a new phone, try to find which drivers work best.

MS-6967 how to get it to work with mobile phone tools?

I've recently bought a MS-6967 after borrowing a TDK BT dongle from a mate and successfully used mobile phone tools to put MP3 tones into my Motorola V525 phone. So I gave my mate his TDK BT back and thought I'd start using my MS-6967 instead.
I can get it to connect phone to PC OK but not with mobile phone tools, every time I get to set up V525 in MPT and it seems to just about to stop and find my V525, then MPT program crashes. I'm using XP Pro SP1, MSI 1.4.3.4 drivers which just came out and version 2.21c MPT even updated to 2.21f and no difference. Its driving me mad, is it the MS-6967 or what?
Any help appreciated.

Hi again, thanks for the help.
Her phone seems to have a whole section specifically for connecting to Yahoo Mail, but unfortunately she doesn't have Yahoo Mail, she has a (name)@btinternet.com address (which was set up automatically when she got BT Broadband), which she normally accesses via Outlook.
I think she just has to set it up with her server settings, there is the setup to do this on the phone, but so far it's not working - I don't know whether this is because she hasn't remembered them all correctly (her PC is currently without a monitor so she couldn't check them), or whether it's because she needs to subscribe to some additional service? I thought that seemed unlikely, my friends all check their emails on their phones without any extra services - I'm afraid I've never had a phone sophisticated enough to do anything more than text on though so I don't know how it's done! Anyway thanks again for taking the time to advise, it's much appreciated!

I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

HT201318 I need to cancel my storage plan and I don't have physical phone or anything associated with the phone anymore to get serial # from, so how do I contact apple?

I need to cancel my storage plan and I don't have the physical phone or anything associated with the phone anymore to get serial # from, so how do I contact apple?

Contact the Apple online store at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE in the U.S. and Canada.)
If you ever synced your phone with iTunes, you can find your serial number by doing the following:
Launch iTunes on your computer.
Hold down your Control key, then on the menu bar in iTunes click iTunes>About iTunes (Mac) or Help>About iTunes (PC).
Any previously synced devices will scroll in a pop-up window; press the space bar to stop scrolling so you can write down the serial number.

Can i use my ipad 2 as a mobile phone?

Am going to Korea soon, does anyone know if I can put a Korean sim card in it and use it as a mobile phone (I have the 3G ipad) ?
FYI - I do well to switch the thing on, I'm not technically very good with IT stuff.

You can use it for FaceTime (over wif) and Skype-type calls, but you can't do 'normal' phone calls with an iPad.

Update ios8.1 - and then it had a completely different Apple ID associated with my phone? I'm very confused.

I was wondering if someone could explain how this could occur. I attemed the update (ios 8.1) and it ended abruptly which caused my phone to need to be restored. I attempted to do this and when completed and putting in my information, the phone's itunes account was associated with a completely new email (someone's name that is not mine). I'm curious what this could mean.
The paranoid/irrational side of me fears for personal privacy and was wondering if there were more details.

Did you buy a used iPhone? It appears that it's locked to that account.
However, before going nuts, try this step by step suggestion to change iCloud accounts.

I sincerely doubt that you've been hacked.

Prompt to Update Account with Mobile Phone Number WON'T STOP APPEARING

When signing in to Verizon a box keeps coming up to enter mobile phone number. I have been checking off "No Number" and it says account settings updated but the box keeps appearing. I have deleted cookies and history as instructed by cust. svc but that did not fix the problem. Using Firefox.

Thanks for contacting us MsSusan. I just attempted this, to test it out, and was able to confirm it works. If you have either the Internet Explorer or Chrome browser on your device, could I have you try it again with either of those browsers (After clearing cookies) and let us know your results?
Thanks,

Ipad 2 pair with windows phone

I cannot pair my Nokia Windows8 phone with iPad 2 using Bluetooth. Is this possible with an App?

You cannot transfer them to your iPad directly from your Windows phone. You will have to either use a cloud-based service such as Dropbox or transfer the videos from your Nokia to your computer and then sync them to your iPad.

Using HP ePrint with mobile phone internet connection

Hello, I have a peculiar problem.
I have an HP Officejet 4630 e-All-in-One series printer and I want to set up HP ePrint.
I have internet connection for my laptop computer, which is the computer I use. It too is a HP. To set up your HP ePrint account you need the printer's code number which can be printed from the printer's control panel. Once you have the printer code, you can then enter it in to your account to add your device. My problem is that my interent connection is the mobile phone which I use to connect my laptop to the internet. The printer is then connected to the computer using either the direct wireless feature or using the supplied USB cable. Because of this, I can't obtain the printer's code, from the printer's control panel. I do not use landline internet connection as the mobile phone is used as a modem.
What do I do?????????
Can I just phone technical support and ask them to email my printer code??????
This question was solved.

Hi,
No, this is not going to work and WON'T work at all. Your printer MUST be connected to the internet to allow ePrint to work. No point to send an email to printer and it is NOT there.

Abr file associated with adobe reader instead of photoshop

After installing Photoshop CC, my abr files are no longer associated with Photoshop by default. They now display an Adobe Reader icon, and when I attempt to change the default program for this file, I cannot get the change to apply. After right-clicking on the file and choosing "open with", I select the photoshop.exe file and click okay. However, when I return to the "open with" window, Photoshop has not been added to the list and the Adobe Reader program is still selected. I have tried this for both the 32-bit and 64-bit exe files, and I've also tried changing the default program when I right-click the file and go to Properties. It is as if Windows is not recognizing the Photoshop exe file as a valid option.
I am using Windows 7, 64 bit operating system.
I appreciate any insight.

Well, it is very easy to fix. I run CC 2014 and Windows 7.
You right-click on the abr file, choose Open with... and in the sub-menu select "Choose Default Program".
A dialog opens up. CC 2014 will be in that list. Select it. Then check the box at the bottom
"always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
Click OK. You are done.
Keeps these instructions in case a tiff, or png file opens in another program, you will know how to fix this problem.
