Number showing up as private?
When I use my skype phone number, my number is not showing up as Private and Unlisted all of a sudden. I didnt make any changes to my account. How do I change the settings back so that my number shows up when I am calling someone? Thanks!
How do I set up caller identification using my Online Number?
To set up caller identification using your Online Number:
Sign in to your account.
In the Call phones tab, click Set up a caller identification.
If this link is not displayed, go to the caller identification settings page to ensure that the link is displayed.
Click select a pre-saved number.
From the drop-down list displayed, select the Online Number that you want to use as your caller identification.
Click Save Settings. Your caller identification is now set and ready to go.

My phone number shows up private?!
I've had my iPhone 5c for a month now and people keep telling me that my number shows up private. Why is that? I looked under the settings over and over for a switch that got turned off but I can't find anything . This is my very first iPhone and I have no clue how to fix this.
For CDMA iPhone, talk to your carrier.

Number showing up private...
Idk if this topic has already been answered, but I own an iPhone 3GS and for the past 2 days, when I call ppl, my number comes up as private. Any suggestions as to what's going on? I plan on contacting apple tomorrow but if anybody knows, it'll help. Thanks!
Nevermind, somehow my "show my caller ID" option had been turned off

We have two iphones in our house and they are both on the same itunes account. When I plug in my phone, my number shows up but it syncs giving me the music and contacts from the other phone. Is it possible to have itunes just see the stuff from my phone when I plug it in. I have had to create a new contacts list and I want to store it in itunes because this phone is a back-up phone. My regular iphone is being repaired. When I get back the phone from repairs, I want to be able to sync it so that itunes sees my contacts and not my daughters stuff. Is this possible?

I've had to change SIM cards with my provider to have working 3G/4G. It works but the odd thing is when I plug my iPhone and I'm on iTunes. I don't see my number showing up. I see n/a each time. I know I have a number but it's not showing up I can make calls and text but it doesn't show my number. In my contacts section I don't see my number either. Why is this?
You have a hardware issue. Try a different USB port. If that doesn't work, try a different docking/charging cable. If that fails, check the USB properties in Device manager. The ports MUST be USB 2.0.
Also, try using a different computer.... -

When downloading, previously Firefox would show a number at the end of the file name (renaming the file by adding a number) showing that I had already downloaded a file at least once. Now that isn't happening. How do I get that feature back?

My phone number shows a different number in the contacts my number section. How do I change it as I cannot even load airtime
You need to set up the accounts in System Preferences/Accounts, then activate Fast User Switching.
That way you can quickly log in to your own account - then back to his.
You should obviously have different passwords. -
Calls from my iPhone 5 always show up as "Private" or "Blocked".
Calls from my iPhone 5 always show up as Private or Blocked when I call someone else. (My ID is normal when I text them though.) I've looked but can't find anything in the phone Settings that would fix this. Am I missing it or is there a bigger problem?
Settings > Phone >Show My Caller ID to On.

HT204053 the wrong cell phone number shows up on my ipad
The wrong cell phone number shows up on my ipad when I put in my apple id. I have got to my apple.com and changed my phone number and it still won't change. I have even reset my iPad to correct it and didn't work. UGH! Help!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Are you referring to messaging, it sounds as though you are sharing your ID with others. -
hi, my iPhone is already completely updated and I want my iMessages to go to my phone number, however my phone number shows up on the settings screen for that, but will not let me select it to be used. How do I fix that?
Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

My phone number shows as unknown in the phone settings
Newly unlocked Rogers iphone 3G now my new provider name appears, i can call, but nobody can call me---my phone number shows as unknown in the phone settings---i have restored to factory settings twice---phone tells me it's unlocked---whats wrong?
Falktr,
That's definitely odd but I understand how frustrating this is, we definitely want to assist you. Is this a Verizon Wireless iPhone? If not, you may experience problems such as this. If it is, please reset the network settings http://vz.to/Q7XEOV. If that doesn't work, please follow these steps http://bit.ly/19vT5qz .
