Iphone sending messages/calls in old name

So I have upgraded to iphone 5 and passed my iphone 4 onto family member including my old sim card. All settings are changed to new account, apple id is different and so is icloud registration.
Whenever I save my old number as new name in new phone. Messages and calls are received in my name and not the new name. Icloud accounts etc are all unlinked.
Thanks.

When this happens, it may not be your system that is sending out the bad emails. They may have picked up your email address from someone else's Address Book and are sending out emails and spam using forged email headers.
If you or someone you know can get hold of one of the bad emails, view the full headers, and you can sometimes see where it came from. You can try complaining to the ISP that runs that block of addresses.
You may need to "cut-and-paste" the full headers into a new email and send it to the webmaster of the ISP hosting that block of addresses.

  • Why is my iphone sending messages from my email and not my number?

    My phone will send messages from my email rather than my number. I have gone to the settings to switch it to send just from my number. When i do that, it does not send. What do i do to fix this problem!?

    Hello therealdeal333,
    Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're only able to send iMessages using your Apple ID (email address) on your iPhone. If you're not able to send iMessages using your phone number, first try signing out of iMessage and FaceTime on your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    If you send iMessages from other devices (such as a Mac or iPad), sign out of those as well.
    Then sign back in on your iPhone:
    On your iPhone first, sign back in to iMessage and Facetime.
    Sign back in to iMessage and Facetime on your other devices (if necessary.)
    You can find the steps I quoted above, as well as more troubleshooting help, at this link:

  • Wired keyboard on iPhone / Send messages via Mac

    Hi,
    Okay my aim is to be able to view and reply to messages using my mac keyboard (Wired, so no bluetooth)
    The ways I've thought about it is to use an app that can view & send messages on my mac (most preferred option but so far only been able to view messages)
    Or somehow connect to my mac via bluetooth from my phone and trick the phone into thinking my mac is a bluetooth keyboard (if that makes sense)
    I have an iPhone 4, up to date and so far the only option I've seen is to jailbreak and use VNC which I really don't want to do...
    Thanks in advance!

    You can use myPhoneDesktop

    to enter text on you computer to be sent as SMS from your iPhone.

  • IPhone sending message as imessage instead of SMS to Nokia

    My wife has switched to a Nokia Lumia and given me her old iphone 4. The iPhone has been unlocked and resynced and everything has switched over successfully, The only issue is that, when I try to send her a text, my iPhone (her old iPhone) tries to send this (unsuccessfully) as an iMessage instead of a sms. Somehow it thinks my wifes new phone is an iPhone. Any ideas?

    Presumably, your wife kept the same phone number, but didn't dis-associate it from iMessage before switching to the Nokia?
    See the following article (although for Vodafone applies to all providers):

  • Skype stops sending messages/call stops/unable to ...

    So I've had this issue for about 3 months now and I believe it's ever since it automatically updated to 7.0. 
    The first time I noticed it happen was when messages would not send via my desktop but would do on my phone. The circle motion would be sat by the message on the chat window and would not have sent. I check my phone and the convo had still been going on but my message had not sent (Group convo of about 10 people).
    Next time it happened was instantly as I tried to log on. It would not be signing in at all, just sat at the signing in page and not responding. - I get a call via my phone on skype but not on my desktop. Frustratingly requiring to be on my desktop so I could do work while on skype - I had to reboot my computer to fix this, causing me to delay things for another 5-10 mins while my PC rebooted and I signed onto skype.
    The last time was today, I went about going to skype - It didn't sign in when I needed to be in a call with 4 other people. Reboot my computer. Fine, I'll deal with it, starts working. 2 hours into that call however, the thing just stops sending me the information but doesn't freeze up - I get messages via another means saying that they can still hear me and see me but I can't hear them - 2 minutes later they say that it's frozen up and I've left the call. Now, I know the only solution is to reboot my computer but I am fed up of having to do so whenever skype decides it doesn't want to play ball with me.
    I have tried every solution to fix it such as default settings, clearing temp/cache files and even reinstalls. But everything while my PC is running after it's 'crashed' (It doesn't exactly crash, just loses some kind of connection), once I reboot it seems to work fine. I have no idea what it is that's causing it - It literally just stops wanting to send or receive data. I've lived in this place since September 2014 and it only has started happening, I mention this as I live in student appartment block. 
    I hope that someone out there knows or understands what I'm trying to say or do here - and I guarantee you that I've tried ever sort of solution. Even deleting shared.xml and such. 
    I don't want to have to reboot my PC every time it decides it doesn't want to behave, it's frustrating when I'm in the middle of something and really shouldn't be the solution to my problem everytime.
    EDIT: Running on Windows 7 Ultimate x64

    sorry I don't have your answer but I am havng similar problem. I have no access to video call and my video icon has a red slash in echo test section. also on sound check with echo test my message did not play back.  I just had my computer retored and now have IE9. don't know if this has anything to do with it. when I first logged on I saw a flash that said NO SKYPE HOME. also looking for answers.

  • Why won't my iPhone send messages to another non-iPone?

    My iPhone will send A text message to another iPhone, but fails when a message is sent to any non-iPhone. Help?

    Check Settings>Messages, turn Send As SMS to On.  If it's already on you may want to check with your carrier to be sure that your messaging plan is properly provisioned.

  • Nokia N95 Cannot send messages

    Hi I hope this is the right place to post this!
    I can't seem to be able to send messages on my Nokia N95. I got it in the middle of December. Great phone and no problems whatsoever.
    However the other night I was unable to send messages. They would immediately go straight to the outbox and sit there saying they would resend.
    However it fixed itself randomly and began sending messages again. I did nothing. Kept the phone on changed no settings.
    Today though it's gone again and this time i haven't been able to send any messages for the past 12 hours. I can make calls, receive calls and receive messages I just cannot send messages.
    I've checked my message centre details. Everything is correct for my network 02.
    I tried my sim card in my other phone and it sends messages fine.
    You name it i've tried it...deleting message centres...adding new ones...it still just sends them straight to the outbox though!
    Any ideas anyone? i've googled it and it appears quite a few other people are suffering from this.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who replies

    As for the message problem, if you are getting the same issue after your restore, I would say it is probable a program or file that is causing the conflict and the only way to deal with that is by process of illimination.
    Start by removing the latest program you installed and so on.
    On PC Suite I can only restore the entire backup. How do I restore only parts of the backup? I really only need to keep my contacts. Everything else like the maps I can download again if need be.

  • I can't send messages or call people with my NEW iPhone 4s.

    Hello.
    I live in Sweden and I ordered my iPhone 4s some days ago, I got it on Wednesday.
    Ever since I got it I noticed that I was having problems with my carrier, "Tele2". I can't send messages or even make calls, and I'm very disappointed. And I also can't connect to the 3G network at times, it just goes away, and this always leads to a reboot.
    I have to restart my phone every 5 minutes, and THEN I can send about 1-2 messages, then it goes back to what it was before. Crap.
    And I also called the people on "Tele2" they said that they don't know if it's the software or if it's the hardware. And that I simply have to wait until they know.
    I'm just wondering. Is there anyone out there who's heard anything about solving any problems like these? Perhaps and update to 5.0.1 ? Please let me know, I would appreciate it very much!

    They said that it wasn't them, they contacted Apple and they were aware of the problem. But still Apple didn't know if it was hardware of software problems.
