    My iPhone is sending iMessage through Icloud email? How do I fix this?

    Open settings app on your phone
    tap messages
    select send and receive
    uncheck your Apple ID and check your phone number.
    also makes sure SMS is ON
    To be accurate, your text messages are sent via apple servers to other apple users, using your Apple ID

    My phone only let's me send iMessage from my email, how do I send and receive from my number?

    Hi jwol21,
    If you are having issues sending iMessages from your phone number, you may want to double check that your phone number and your Apple ID have been linked and that your phone number is listed under Start New Conversations From. You may find the following article helpful:

  • My iPhone 5 is sending iMessages from my email.

    My iPhone 5 is constantly sending iMessages from my email. Not only that but I am not receiving some iMessages or any group messages. I've searched for an answer everywhere but nothing is helping! I don't have a 'Caller ID' option on my phone. I am also running thru VZW (if that helps) HELP and thanks!

    Open Settings.
    Go to Messages > Send & Receive.
    Select or unselect as you please.
    Tip: You can un-check your emails if you don't want to send or receive using your email.

  • I lost my iphone and activated my number with an old phone. Problem is people with iphones are now sending me blank texts. How do I fix this?

    I had an iPhone 4s but left it on my car and drove off.  Now I have activated a temporary phone my mom had on hand (Lotus) while I save up for a new iPhone.
    Is there a list out there in cyber space somewhere that lists all the iPhone numbers because now people who have iPhones send me blank text messages?  I have been able to isolate this down to only happening when they send me an "iMessage" but I don`t understand why I keep getting them?  Even people I had never texted with before losing my phone are sending me these blank messages.  How do I fix this?

    If you registered you iPhone with Apple you may want to try unregistering it by:
    Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
    Log in if not already logged in.
    Click on ">" to the right of the phone listing
    Click "unregister"
    This may help unregister you iPhone with the iMessage server, allowing texts sent to you from iPhones to be sent as normal SMS/MMS rather than iMessages.

  • IPhone 5 cannot send imessage to appleid (email address)

    Hi,
    Somebody help me regarding my problem. When I compose a message using his appleid (email address) the Send button is green instead of blue and when I clicked the send button it sent goes to MMS which is bill is apply. Im using IPhone 5 (6.1.4)
    Regards,
    Larry Santos

    You can turn off the SMS feature in the iMessages settings so if it cant send as an iMessage, it wont send as a text instead.
    Once you do that, you wont have to worry about being billed anymore for the normal rate of texts. Some people can have their phone number attached to their Apple ID so even if you send it to their phone number, it will send as an iMessage. You can look at that by going into Settings>Messages>Send & Recieve At> and you will see any phone numbers and emails attached to the Apple ID which you can message to.
    Try turning that off as stated above and try to send a iMessage to their phone number.

  • I have new PC and my new Iphone 4s does not sync through I cloud how do I fix

    I have a new pc and now my new Iphone 4s does not sync though Icloud how do I make new computer be the one iphone syncs with.

    Go to appleid.apple.com and sign in with your current Apple ID
    Change the Apple ID to the old one and save changes.
    Sign in on the device with the same password for your account.
    After logging in and signing out of Facetime, Messages, iCloud and itunes and app store, go back to Apple ID.com and change it back to your normal Apple ID.
    Go to your email account and reverify your account by clicking on the Verify now link
    Now re-login to those services with your normal Apple ID and password.

  • Using Mac (non-Mountain Lion) to send iMessages through iPhone

    My Mac at work doesn't have Mountain Lion, my cell signal is minimal to non-existant, and I don't have a Wi-Fi signal. Can I connect my iPhone and somehow use the Internet connection to send iMessages through the iPhone?

    Returning to this one more time…a coworker with an iMac that has an Airport card is able to share his Internet connection via Wifi, but this isn't feasible because he isn't nearby my computer.
    Because my Mac Pro (2007) does not have an Airport card, I am unable to share via Wifi. However, I am wondering if I connect my Ethernet cable (Internet that does IN to the computer) to an Airport Express, and then back to the computer, can I then share the Internet connection through Wifi?
    Simply put, is there a way to create a Wifi signal from my Mac Pro (without having to install an Airport card, which also isn't feasible)?

  • All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone number but only from my email address. When I go to the settings for my imessages to choose where they are coming from my phone number is greyed out....Is there a way to fix this

    All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone....

    Hi Chas869,
    Hmm, that is strange that your phone number is greyed out. There are a few things that we can try. First would be to turn iMessages off, then back on. See if you are able to select your phone number. Then if that doesn't work, turn iMessages back off, then reset the network settings....settings>general>reset>reset network settings, this will reboot the phone. Don't worry, it won't delete anything from the phone, it simulates a battery pull. Once the device comes back on, then turn iMessages back on. Keep us posted if that works!

  • IPhone won't send iMessage (even when signed on Wi-FI or 3G)

    My iPhone won't send iMessages even when I try to connect through Wi-Fi or 3G. At first I thought it was my Wi-Fi but it wasn't since I can connect to programs such as Safari and Instagram. I have also reset my network settings. Can someone help me or have any idea how I can fix this?
    Thank you!

    Phone is not jailbroken.
    Got it re: passcode lock.
    If I do a system restore, but I restore as a new phone, will my crucial phone functionality remain intact (phone number, ability to make calls, etc.)? And when it's restored, do I then just do a sync to have all my data brought back into the device?
    Sync settings for calendar and contacts are enabled properly, and are the same as they have been for years. I'm not sure it's the calendar or contact data that is corrupted (although anything is possible) because the sync problems started happening exactly when the iMessage problems started happening.
    Please advise on the system restore (not from backup) and I will post my results. Just wanna make sure I'm not doing anything irreparable.
    Thanks...DG

    Hey lozza567,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues sending MMS messages. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    Issues with sending and receiving MMS
    You will need these to send and receive MMS:
    - An iPhone 3G or later.
    - iOS 3.1 or later.
    - A cellular data connection. MMS isn't available if you are using only Wi-Fi.
    - A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You may need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information.
    - A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network different from your billing cellular provider's network. Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps first
    1. Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
    3. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
    4. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you are roaming on a cellular provider network different from your billing provider's network.
    5. Verify that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar at the top left of your iPhone.
    6. Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
    7. Verify that you can send and receive SMS. If you are unable to send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above.
    8. MMS may not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
    9. Restart your iPhone.
    10. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    11. Reseat your SIM card.
    If you are still unable to send or receive MMS, follow these steps
    1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you are sending a group message.
    3. Make sure that you are using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
    4. Verify a "Pay as you go" MMS plan has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if unsure of your MMS plan or available balance.
    5. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    6. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    7. Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
    8. If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process may not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
    9. Contact your carrier to verify that you are provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
    10. Contact your carrier to verify that there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
    11. Your carrier may require APN settings to be modified to use MMS. Learn more about when you should adjust APN settings.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
