Ipad imessage ios 7 mobile number

Hi,
there`re some tipps to be able to receive on an iPad imessages sent to tne mobile number. But they don't work with iOS 7.04. I would like to have conversations sent to my mobile phone number on the iPad as I have them on my iMac. Any solution?
Thanks in advance from Germany

Hi,
to be very precise: switching iMassage off and on doesn't help. This is what I did first. But when signing off from the account on the iPad and than signing in to the account again (I`m trying to translate from German to English: settings --> messages --> send & receive --> account --> sign off/on) the issue is solved. I found the hint somewhere at Apple support sites...
Thanks again from Germany

Yes, that's what I told you to do.....

How do I get my messages to come through on my ipad Via my mobile number? They always used to but I've had to change all my Apple ID if that has anything to do with it? In iMessages it will only take an email address!

IMessage will not accept my mobile number on my iPad

Try to add my mobile number under setting but it will not accept it

Has the number been added to your AppleID?
And just to be clear, adding this as an address to Messages on the iPad will NOT allow you to receive SMS messages, just iMessages.

IMessage on MacBook Pro - how to use mobile number?

So I upgraded to 10.8.2 on ML and IOS 6 on other devices. I notice on the iPhone that my iMessages can be received by default only to the mobile number.
I previously turned iMessage off because frankly it was a complete PITA and more trouble than it was worth. The mess created for recipients with messages coming from apple IDs when sent from the iPad and from a mobile number on the phone, then messages sent from one not showing on the other, replies not going from one device becase there was no internet available but the message had come to the apple ID and not the phone number etc etc. The woes went on. iMessage thus went off.
Now, the ability to use the phone number as the default across decvices did sound appealing and I THOUGHT that when I activated imessage on the Mac and iPad it would automatically show up with the option to use the mobile number on those devices. Instead I just get the email option and can see phone number at all.
Am I correct in assuming that I need to add the Apple ID so messages can be sent there BUT configure it somehow so that iMessages going out from those devices are sent as coming from my mobile and not an email address? last thing I want is the dog's breakfast that the last incarnation of iMessage brought and I would hope this time around that "It just works". I'm gettng more and more used to having to probe around with Apple though, to find ways to make it work.

Finally got this to work, coincidence or not i'm not sure, maybe the system was just catching up. On the iPhone I ONLY had the telephone number enabled. I then added the Apple ID and all the test messages arrived, as did the mobile number verify message. I then went and turned the Apple ID email off as a 'receive at' source. After that the mobile number was verified on the Macbook and was available to add as an iPad 'email address'.

I cant receive imessage vis my mobile number ...i can thru my email....i did everything possible .

i cant receive imessage vis my mobile number ...i can thru my email....i did everything possible .

I apologize. I misread your statement.
The information that I provided about adding the phone number back to the iPad is valid and should work. Now as for the activation of messages, take a look at these support articles for starters. Hopefully, something in one of these will help.

Hi Fmaldon,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps that may help if you are having trouble activating iMessage on your new iPhone 5s:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
If you see "Waiting for Activation" when trying to activate your phone number with iMessage or FaceTime on iPhone
To resolve this issue:
Ensure that you have an active Internet connection. You can complete activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. If you need help connecting to Wi-Fi, follow these steps.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
Ensure that FaceTime hasn't been restricted: tap Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime.
Ensure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone: tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: If Set Automatically is on but the incorrect time zone appears, turn Set Automatically off and choose the correct time zone, date, and time.
Verify that you can send SMS messages. You need a valid SMS messaging plan to activate FaceTime and iMessage.
Contact your carrier to verify that there are no restrictions or blocks on text messages. Blocks on text messaging will prevent iMessage and FaceTime registration.
If "Waiting for Activation" still appears after you perform these steps, turn FaceTime and iMessage off and on inSettings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime. You may need to wait up to 24 hours to complete activation. Most attempts will take less than an hour, but some attempts may take up to 24 hours. If your issue isn't resolved after 24 hours, please contact Apple for assistance. If you've recently performed a remote wipe on your iPhone, wait 24 hours from the time you performed the remote wipe, and then turn iMessage off then back on.
Cheers,

How do I get my iMessage to use my mobile number and not my email??

Then how do I unlink it then? I'm new to the Mac world..

How do I set up iMessage on my iPad using my phone number

I Know there is a feature which allows me to send iMessages from my iPad using my phone number, but am unable to find it.

The phone number must be an iPhone number. No other phone number will work.
Settings> Messages> Send & Receive> You can be reached by iMessages at. If the phone number appears in there, select it as your contact number. If the phone number does not appear, you most likely will have to start over again by turning messages off on your iPhone, enable it again, and then the number should be accessible to use on the iPad.
This explains it in more detail.

How I can change ipad mini mobile number I initially requested and to place the wrong number

how I can change ipad mini mobile number I initially requested and to place the wrong number

If you're refering to your uphone number thats set up to be used with imessage on your ipad, then that is associated with your apple id and has to be changed there first.
My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Then on your ipad, sign out of messages. Go to settings/messages/tap on send and receive/tap on apple id/sign out
Then sign out of messages on phone and then back in.
Then sign into messages on ipad again, number should appear
