    That number is for an apple server in the UK that is used for iMessage activation.  A hidden SMS is snet to that number when you turn iMessage on and is used to verify your phone number.  I suggest you turn iMessage off.  In settings/phone turn on dial assist.  Check with your carrier to see if you can send an international SMS as you end that possibility to activate iMessage.  Rest your phone (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).) then turn iMessage back on.

    Hi Atique ur rehman,
    Thanks for your query.
    If the sleep wake button on your iPhone is unresponsive, first try and reset all setting by going to Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings.
    If this does not resolve the problem, I would sound more like a hardware based issue.
    I would recommend that you contact AppleCare so they can run further tests and diagnostics to help you solve your solution better.
    If you can also access an Apple Store Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Center, that would be much better.
    Go to https://locate.apple.com/country for further support with your device!
    Thanks,
    KL

  • I Try registering my card in order to use the services of Itunes so that always appears refused payment method, what should I do?

    I Try registering my card in order to use the services of Itunes so that always appears refused payment method, what should I do?

    If you are referring to a credit card and it being refused, then something is probably wrong with the entry of the card or your account information. It is not matching what is on file for your account. Generally this is the address field. Make sure it matches what you see on your bill exactly. Otherwise, you need tocontact iTunes support. http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • Ios 7.1.2 froze my iphone 5, cant reboot as my sleep button does not work! What do i do?

    was updating my ios and then it went to white screen with the apple and loading bar. it loaded only near half way but then froze!
    and i can not reboot it because my sleep button is broken!
    not sure what to do now?

    I had the same issue.  Basically you need to get the phone to reboot. I suspect waiting for the battery to run out would do this, but I didn't want to wait for it.   iTunes would recognize my phone when I plugged it into my PC, though the phone was still locked up during update (black screen with apple symbol and progress bar at around 1/3).  I didn't want to go through the hassle of a full restore so I found a small Windows program called reiboot  that was able to place my phone into recovery mode.  Then it let me take it out of recovery mode, which caused the phone to reboot (i think other programs like tiny umbrella may do the same thing). After a reboot, it showed the update screen for a minute, then started up running 7.1.2 fine.

  • My sleep button isn't working correctly, what do I do?

    I have a 6th generation ipod. If I press the sleep button to turn of the screen and save battery, the music stops as well. I tried to reset the settings and it worked for a while, but just went back to not playing. the only way I can listen to music is if I leave the screen on (really annoying for sleeping). Any suggestions?

    Make sure your headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug.  You should hear a clicking sound when inserting the headphones indicating the headphones have been fully inserted.

  • My ipod nano's power button is stuck?! What should I do?1

    I got my ipod nano 6th generation for christmas. It's been working fine the past months I had it but then suddenly this morning, I found the power button stuck! :/ What should I do?!?!?!

    Schedule an appointment at your local Apple Store/Genius Bar and see if there is anything they can do to help. If they find that the problem is not the result of abuse, they should replace it under the 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects.

  • Whenever i click on the 'getting started' icon on the bookmanrks toolbar, the page appears in Hindi language, what should i do so that it comes automatically in english ?

    i just want to know the changes that i should do so that whenever i click on the 'getting started' icon, the page should appear in english language and not in hindi language.

    I did some further research on this specific piece of malware. There is an article here that has some more information about what it is :
    http://www.mywot.com/en/forum/8429-goingonearth-com-stay-away
    and it looks like this person has gotten it off of their computer by following the steps here: http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/topic/290253-google-redirectgoingonearthcom-malware/
    All-in-all, this is a pretty sophisticated piece of malware, and if neither of those links help, I'd suggest going to a forum site that is dedicated to fixing computer problems/infections and asking for some more targeted help there. It's something that is beyond my level of expertise to remove.

  • I am using version 3.6.16 and my "reload current page button" is not working. What should I do?

    When using my Firefox version 3.6.16, the "reload current page" button, which is a blue arrow shaped into a counterclockwise circle, does not work. When pressed, literally nothing happens.
    I am using Windows XP Media Center Edition version 2002. I am not new to Firefox and this problem has not occurred before on this computer.

    You can try:
