IPhone Calendar Problem and Phone Number Problem

I bought the iPod 16 GB on Friday. I immediately upgraded the O/S.
I tried synching with my Outlook 2003. Here are the issues:
1. Not all phone numbers came over - I have friends with a Work Phone, Work Fax, Work Mobile, Personal Mobile, Home. It didn't bring over their Personal Mobile.
2. Phone Numbers that were formated like this (416) 555-1212 - ext. 8040 got changed on the iPhone like this 4165551212ext8040
3. Calendar entries were off despite I had the correct date/time. For example I had an appointment from 5:00 pm to 10:00 pm (EST) and it changed it to 2:00 pm to 7:00 pm
Any ideas?
Thanks!

#2, check Settings > General > International > Region Format and make sure it's set the the US (I'm making that assumption based on your preferred phone number format).
#3, check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Time Zone Support and make sure that's set correctly.
Not sure on #1.

Wipe iPhone/iPad/iPod touch clean
There are a few steps to do:
Switch off iMessage in Settings > Messages
Switch off FaceTime in Settings > FaceTime (iPod touch 4th Generation or later, iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later)
Delete iCloud in Settings > iCloud > Delete Account
Finally Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
Un-register your device: https://supportprofile.apple.com
Now you can sell/give.
Now, you should get her a new Apple ID to sign in the options above.

I send an email from my Iphone to a friend. My friend receives it on her Iphone, but as text message. She replies and it goes back to my daughter's phone, a completely different email and phone number. Why?

I send an email from my Iphone to a friend. My friend receives it on her Iphone, but as text message. She replies and it goes back to my daughter's phone, a completely different email and phone number. Why?

We went through my friend's phone and my daughter's email and phone number are not in it. I have never given my daughter's iphone number to my friend. Is it something to do with gmail or my apple id? My daughter (14) has been using my computer as her "base" for HER Iphone.
My friend does use her iphone number as an email address as well.
For instance: her phone number might look like this: (493) 305-3958
and her email address would look like this: [email protected]
If I Iphone/email my friend, she receives it as a text message. Then if she replies to that text message, it goes to my daughter's phone and not mine. It's completely crazy! We searched her phone contacts and did not find my daughter's phone number anywhere or attached anywhere to mine. Since when does Iphone emailing wind up in the text messaging area?

How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
Backup Phone A.
Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

Try to Reset it (hold down the home and sleep buttons, ignore the red off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons).
If that does not work try Restoring it in iTunes.
Still no go? You will need to get it serviced.

Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone. Why did this pop up today?

Why did this pop up today?
Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone.

Turned on my Mac Pro a few minutes ago and I got the following "POP-UP" message.
" Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone. " ( my iPhone is not new. )
" If you recently signed into "xxxxx iPhone" you can ignore this notification."
On the bottom of this pop-up window is an "OK" button. Well it's NOT "OK" No option is offered if it is not "OK".
I have made no changes to my iPhone whatsoever. Just normal use today. In my iCloud settings everything is turned off except sharing Contacts.
I'd suggest you log on to iCloud.com with your Apple ID, and then go to Settings and look in the "My Devices" settings for anything you don't recognize.
I just did this. All of the devices are iPhones, iPads, and Macintoshes that I own and am familiar with.

Can a friend activate an iphone 4S that I purchase through my upgrade with her account and phone number?

I want to buy an iphone 4S with my upgrade through AT&T and give it to my friend. Will she be able to activate it through her own itunes account with her phone number and AT&T account, or will the phone somehow be linked to my account and phone number when I upgrade so that no one else can activate it? I plan to purchase it through the AT&T website so it will be delivered to my home.

Clean out the charging port--make sure there's no dust or debris in there. If that fails to solve the issue, bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.

Hi SLCfromMadison,
This is the message that you'll receive when your Apple ID is signed into on an iPhone. If you haven't done so, the article linked below details a number of steps that can help verify the security of your Apple ID should you think that an unauthorized person has access to it.

Hello Todd:
I had this very same problem when trying to activate iMessage and Facetime on my iPad. When I signed into my account, I actually wasn't even presented with the option of a phone number - notwithstanding the fact that I was contacting others (and being reached by others) by my phone number on my iPhone. Having both the iPad and the iPhone on, I kept trying to turn off and on both iMessage and Facebook in Settings on both my iPad and iPhone, hoping that that they would eventually sync. But this proposed solution by others was unsuccessful for me.
Then, I found out what the problem was: When my iPhone was activated, it automatically registered my phone number for contact purposes. I was using iMessage on my iPhone for quite some time without actually being signed into my Apple ID account. When another device - such as an iPad or iPod - is being used for iMessage or Facebook, you are prompted to sign into your Apple account, using your username and password. These two devices will not register your phone number as an option for contact unless your iPhone is signed into your Apple account as well. In other words: your phone number will not be synced.
Go into your "Settings" on your iPhone and click on "Messages". Scroll down and click on "Send & Receive" (which should be followed by your phone number). On the next page, you will be able to determine whether or not your iPhone is using the Apple ID for messaging purposes. (Note: This information applies for Facetime as well.) If it is using your Apple ID for messaging, than at the top, you will see "Apple ID: <your particular e-mail account>" in Blue text. However, if you are not using your Apple ID for messaging, than you will see the words: "Use your Apple ID for message". Even though below this you will see your phone number checked as the contact source, you will want to click the tab that says, "Use your Apple ID for message". Sign into your account (just as you must sign in for iMessage on your other devices), and just choose your phone number as the "Send & Receive" contact. (The option of the e-mail will be there too, but you don't have to check it. And later on, you can delete it as an option.)
Now that all of your devices are signed in using your Apple ID, the other devices should register your phone number as a choice. It may take a little while, however. What I did was sign out of iMessage on my iPad, and then sign in again. If the option didn't appear, I just went back and signed in again, and kept doing this until the option for the phone number appeared.
Again, this will work for Facetime as well. The solution is to sync your iPhone account with the other devices by using your Apple ID for messaging (and Facetime) purposes.
I hope that this works for you, Todd! ~ Brian

TS2326 apple id and phone number of the same contact on different threads

Hi I have a single contact with apple id and phone number on my iphone 4 ios6. The issue is I have 2 contacts in Messages for the same Contact entry: one with the phone number (green bubbled) and the other with the apple id (blue bubbled). Too annoying. Couldn't find how. Any help? Thanks.

now I'm having the same problem but with the Weather Center app. Whenever I turn on the iPhone I get a notification the weather center is using current location and do I want to continue letting it or not. But there is another error message behind with a keypad and this time I cannot dismiss the weather center dialog.
Any suggestions?

IPhone lost it's phone number. Help!

I have had an iPhone since day 1 and the phone number of the phone appeard at the top of the phone directory. Yesterday I bought my daughter an iPhone and we swapped sims because she wanted my phone number. Her phone registered fine. I took her sim and had an old number from my previous carrier ported to it. I registered my phone with iTunes and after a slight delay my iPhone has the ported number and can dial in and out just like it should.
All seemed fine, but I notice at the top of the phone list on the iPhone, it is blank. On my iTunes the iPhone page doesn't report the phone number.
Has this happened to you and do you know how to fix?
Paul

I don't know if you've seen this problem fixed, yet, but it seems that when an iPhone is activated from a ported number (as you did when you put your daughter's SIM with a ported number in your iPhone), if the copy of iTunes used to set the iPhone up completes setting up your phone's profile prior to AT&T getting the SIM activated with the ported number, the phone's SIM card will not have the new number written to it (which is where the iPhone gets the number to use on the iTunes sync screen and the iPhone's contact and Phone Setup screens).
Unfortunately, this is what usually happens, and there are lots of folks out there with ported numbers who don't see their own number in the places they should see it. It's because their SIM card does not contain the data needed.
There are two solutions:
1) Reset your iPhone completely, erasing all data, and re-sync it to your computer. When prompted, choose the option to set up a "new" phone rather than restore from a backup. This will force a re-sync with the AT&T servers, and your phone number should be correctly written to the SIM card, and then appear in the appropriate places in the Apple software. This is a draconian solution if you've heavily customized your phone (with 1.1.3, you may have modified springboard layouts and added dozens of web clip icons, for one thing - this will be lost with the "new" phone setup option).
2) Find another model of phone that allows you to edit the data on the SIM card - many, many phones (but not the iPhone) allow this to be done. Power down your iPhone (hold the Home and Sleep buttons until you see the 'Slide to Power Off" slider), place your SIM card in that phone, and use the phone's editing abilities to add your number to the first of the four "My Own Numbers" slots - not all editing software will give you access to all four slots, but all you need to do is add your number to the first, so even the most limited SIM edit program should be able to handle this. After you've got the number on the SIM card, just turn the phone off, remove the card and replace it in your iPhone. When you restart the iPhone, you should immediately see your number on the Contacts screen and in the Phone setup screen. When you next sync the phone, you should see its number on the iTunes sync panel. This is definitely the preferred method if you have many customizations done to the phone, as is likely if you've upgraded to 1.1.3.
Hope this helps.

Forward voice mail on a iPhone 4s to another phone number

How do you:
1) Forward voice mail on a iPhone 4s to another phone number?
AND/OR
2) Copy voice mail file from iPhone 4s to iTunes so it can be attached to an email to send to another person?

Ann,
As it appears that you work for Verizon, can you have then add the capability for iPhone 4s on the Verison Wireless network to:
1) Forward voice mail on a iPhone 4s to another phone number? AND/OR 2) Copy voice mail file from iPhone 4s to iTunes so it can be attached to an email to send to another person?
You can do this with Blackberry devices so please add the same capability to iPhone 4s.
Thanks,
Mark

HT204389 how do i disassociate my iPhone with my old phone number?

how do i disassociate my iPhone with my old phone number? (the phone number is now actually being used by a regular flip phone and without doing this, iphones will not be able to message me via text message.)

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

Email and Phone number added to contact list without permission?

Just discovered an email and phone number added to my contact list under my name and its not mine! How did this happen? Can't call Apple because my 90 days has expired and they won't answer the question without me paying!! So frustrating!! Hoping someone has an answer for me??

What is the full message of the notification ? If your phone number and email address were added to, for example, the Messages app on another device then you will need to go to that other device to remove them from it
