Personal cell number question
I have been receiving calls from a woman looking for someone who she talks to on here. She said that my cell phone number is on his profile on Skype. I would like to know if there is a way to get this fixed?
I'll try to access this from a Windows PC from the internet first (then try with ubuntu)
That requires much more work, like finding Outside IP, Port Forwarding, etc., try it locally first.
1) System Preferences>Sharing>Services tab>Windows Sharing.
2) Browser won't get you to File Sharing, that would be for System Preferences>Sharing>Services tab>Personal Web Sharing.
3) By default the Shared folder is shared, but you can log in as the Mac's User & see all that the Mac User can, or Sharepoints for smb...

Get Sharepoints...

And setup what you wish to share with whom.

I have a work cell and would prefer to just have one phone on me, however, I don't want to lose my personal cell number.
I'm ok with paying $5 or $10 a month. Is this possible? I hear I can do it through google voice as well.So, if I understand what you want to do - you want to keep your current, personal cell #, and forward all calls to your work phone. (I'm not sure if text messages can be forwarded, you may be able to use the desktop Messages app to view and reply to text messages when the phone is not with you.)
In order to accomplish this, you need to have service on the phone number ... what plan are you on now? And what phone do you have on your personal Verizon line? -
Is there a telephone number to speak with a live person regarding my question or is chat the only option?
1-800-922-0204 or *611 from your cell phone. At the phone tree, select option 4 and say agent.

I am receiving the following error message when attempting to text to a valid Mobile/Cell number in Peru...Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code.
I am able to receive texts from the number in question, but not able to text back to the person sending.
The number is a valid 9 digit cell/mobile number.If you're sending as SMS (green bubble) then this is a carrier issue and not an issues with your phone.
To text internationally, you nearly always need to include the country code before the rest of the phone number. If you are doing so and still have issues, contact your carrier.

I use my personal cell phone throughout the day to call customers before arriving for scheduled apptmnts. Is there a way to have my employer's phone # show up on their caller id instead of my personal cell #? I do not want my personal cell # to be given out with these calls.
No. However, you might want to look in to google voice. Using the google voice app, you can have your GV # appear instead of your personal number. I've been using it for years now (it's free in the US), and it's worked very well. You can also have caller ID for incoming calls display your GV # instead of the callers # so you know it's a work call, and you can set schedules for when calls to GV are allowed through to your forwarding numbers.

two weeks ago my Blackberry did something quite strange
without any person nearby or pushing any buttons the phone rang--I looked to see who it was, and it said my full name and it displayed my full cell number.
I did not answer it. It rang the full number of rings, then the phone stopped, there was no message left. I called my network Customer service and they could not explain this, except to ask me if I use Bluetooth. I do not and it is not enabled on my phone.
It happened again today, with no person nearby who could have pushed any buttons.
Do I have a virus? I have had Blackberry models for years, and never had this happen to any handset.
I do not download/upload anything except Blackberry updates.
I also never dial my own number to access voicemail, I jsut dial 123 for Vmail.
So can anyone explain this? Much appreciated.The phone doesn't hav a virus, but that is strange.
Do a battery pull first.
Do you have yourself as a contact? if so, delete your info for a bit to see what happens if this call happens again.
if this happens again, I recommend you answer to see who is calling. That way its logged with the carrier so they can do some investigation, trace, etc.

My cell number shows as "unknown" on my iPad 3(AT
When I purchased my iPad 3, I used the cloud to back from my previous iPad - an iPad 2. I think this has caused problems with my cellular account. Specifically, when I go to About section of Settings, the cell number now shows as "unknown". When I logged into my AT&T account from the iPad 3, the number shown was the same as the number for my iPad 2, which I obtained in the About section of Settings. Any ideas?
Ive done that for so many times but still my number is unknown. I dont know why. Do you think my network is not supported by apple? Im currently using it here in philippines and also the personal hotspot is not found in my settings.

WHY assume cell number as primary contact phone number.
I just finished an upgrade of my FIos service, and was puzzled to have them keep contacting me on my cell phones. Since I retired, I am rarely using my cell phone and don't even have it on much of time. I was surprised to see when I reviewed my VERIZON account profile that the Cell number is assumed as the contact number. Only way i see to stop them from contacting me that way is to put up an alternate phone number(actually my FIOS Digital Voice numer) and list me cell number as NONE.
Very strange as I know it wasn't always this why.Hey TNS. This a guess on my behalf. Most people prefer cell phone contact over home phone. I can say from personal experience no one calls me on my home phone, except telemarketers. Having a cell phone is like a home phone that is with you every where you go. Are you able to edit the phone number on the profile there?

Show my cell number when calling and still reacha...
Hi,
I have activated so my cell phone number is showed when making skype out calls.
I also want to activate a "skype in" number so people can call me on skype using a Swedish number.
If I activate "skype in", can I still make calls on "skype out" and that the reciever of the call sees my cell number? I don't want the "skype" in number to be showed.
I would like to know this before enabling "skype in". Thanks in advance!Hi, Jungheinrich, and welcome to the Community,
What you describe is how I have my Caller ID set up, and it works for me - I am in the USA. Here is a link to the library of FAQ articles related to Caller ID, so you can peruse and make an informed decision - I do not know if Caller ID is upported in your location.

Does anyone know if they charge you any fees for changing your cell number? Does it mess with any of your apps that you have downloaded?
Hello ringer5,
That is a great question. As originally answered by Ann154, you may change your number via MyVerizon for free. If you wish for us to change your number via Customer Service, there will be an application of a $15.00 number change fee. To get started free, please visit http://bit.ly/xB4iTc

I just got a Mac book pro 13 ... I need to remove my husbands cell number from this device but dont know how
Are you sharing the same iCloud account as your daughter? If so, that would explain why your contacts are merged. To fix this, you would need to migrate her device(s) to her own iCloud account. After doing so, you could then delete her contacts from your Mac without effecting the contacts on her device(s).
As far as messages, do you have your own iPhone? -
The enclosed ACTIVATION & USE MANUAL is very limited. It only tells you how to activate the phone after inputting a zip code. On the web there are many contact numbers for customer service but ALL REQUIRE a Verizon cell number.
A friend I know had this issue and was told to activate the phone first and then call *611. You also can dial from any other phone this number 1 888 294 6804 and choose 1. They both can handle the tranfer without any problem.
