Switched from iPhone to Galaxy S3 and now back to iPhone 5

I am having issues with imessage on the iphone. I can't sent imessages from my phone number but i can send them from my emails that are registered for imessage. How can I fix it to send from my phone number?

Hello missyrocks14,
Signing out of your Apple ID in Settings -> Messages -> Send & Receive, then signing back in can help get your iPhone to send messages from your phone number.
To sign out of your Apple ID
Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
If you have difficulty activating FaceTime or iMessage

    For what silly reason would any intelligent person believe that changing an Apple ID password would have any affect on iMessage?
    From the link provided:
    If you can't access your iPhone, you no longer have it, or you can't deactivate iMessage after you try the above steps, please contact Apple Support.
    Performing these tasks won't deregister iMessage:

    Sending an SMS text message STOP to 48369

  • Had an Iphone 4s and switched to a Samsung Galaxy s4 and now cant receive text messages from people with an iphone

    Had an Iphone 4s switched to samsung galaxy s4.  Now I cant get text messages from people with Iphones.  Need help.  Starting to get extremely mad and upset with apple products.  HELP PLEASE

    Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
    They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

  • HT4759 switched from 4s to a 5 and now only 'home' dates in my calendar is showing. i am missing my 'work' appt on both phones now! Any suggestions?

    I switched from a 4S to a 5, everything updated to the cloud and resync-ed to my computer nicely except for my calender.
    I have all of my data going back to 2010, however from march 2012 to now i only have the 'home' calender options showing up. All of my 'work' appointments are completely gone, and i can't find them anywhere. Is there a setting I should check out? or are they completely gone?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

    Replace the jack yourself

  • I sync'd my iphone to my computer and now both my iphone and Mac are missing a majority of my library!?

    I sync'd my iphone 5 to my macbook pro about 4 weeks ago and it has been missing a majority of my library ever since. On top of that, now my macbook is missing songs too! I know i had albums by a lot of bands and now theres only a song by a band here and there. Honestly, why would i only own one song from the unplugged version of 30 seconds to mars? I owned all 4! What's going on? Am I just f**ked? i've lost so much music!

    Backing up the iPhone to the computer won't transfer the music to it; to do that, you need to use the Transfer Purchases function. If you're looking for music already on the computer, search it for files with an extension of mp3, m4a, or m4p.

  • Switched from Cox cable to Comcast and now printer problems

    I would like to buy a new printer.   Which printer is compatible with comcast?  LIke I said, never had this problem before. It is wifi, and comcast should recognize it.  It's not worth the time, considering how cheap printers are. 

    Unless you really want a new printer, you only need to set up your current one.  You would still have to set up the new printer, just like you need to do with your current one.
    You don't mention what kind of internet setup you have.  That information would go a long way in helping us help you.  What we need to know is what kind of modem/router setup do you have?

  • I swtiched from LabView7 to LabView8.2, and now my parallel port on LPT1 is not more recognised (I am not able to use VISA to write on it). Why?

    I switched from LabView7 to LabView8.2, and now my parallel port on LPT1 is not more recognised (I am not able to use VISA to write on it). Why?

    Hi,
    Sorry for the delay,
    I need to know more informations about your problem. Have you check the configuration of LPT in MAX? Can you open a VISA session? Do you receive a timeout error when you try to write on that port?
    You can find same importants informations about parallel port configuration for different versions of LabVIEW at this link:

  • I upgraded from Iphone4 to Galaxy S4 and not receiving text messages from Iphones.

    I upgraded from Iphone4 to Galaxy S4 and not receiving text messages from Iphones.I went to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistered my old iPhone to resolve the issue. It's been one day and I cannot recieve text messages from Iphones

    Verizon wiping out old phones would have nothing to do with it. The phone is no longer associated with the number, so wiping the phone would have no effect. It is your Apple ID which is the problem. You have iMessage turned on for your Apple ID. iPhones which have your Apple ID associated with your contact will send texts to your Apple ID, not your phone #. If you have another Apple device which can use iMessage, you could turn off iMessage in that device, but as long as your friends have your Apple ID associated with your contact and you have turned on iMessage in an Apple device and never turned it off before switching from an Apple device to another platform, you will have this problem.
    You can bet that Apple will not address the problem, as they don't see it as a problem if someone is using a phone other than an iPhone. Apple expects no one will ever switch away from an iPhone once one has been used. Therefore, no problem for them to address.
    The problem lies with Apple wanting their users to go through yet another proprietary interface, iMessage, which the MAJORITY of all smartphone users do not have access.

    Restore your phone using the last backup that you made. That should put everything back the way it was.

  • HT1550 I purchased a song from iTunes on my iPhone, downloaded the song and now it won't play?

    I purchased a song from iTunes on my iPhone, downloaded the song and now I am unable to play it on my iPhone. It just keeps skipping to the next song and won't play it on my iphone but rather only on my laptop.....

    Hey pnazaryan
    If the purchased content is not playing, delete the songs from the Music app by swiping at the song. Then go through the process of downloading the track again.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I dropped my iPhone 4 in water and now it won't turn on at all, will i lose all of my data, for example my photos and messages etc? and is there any way you can back the phone up without having it switched on?

    If you had previously been backing up to iCloud (or a computer with iTunes), you would possibly have a backup.  That said, if you can't turn the phone on, you cannot create a backup of the device now.  Sorry.
