Whenever I send a message to another iPhone user via iMessage it is sending my Apple ID instead of my phone number. Could someone help me with this???

Check this article: iOS: About Messages
Additional Information
You can change your iMessage Caller ID setting on iOS devices in Settings > Messages > Receive At > Caller ID. Note that the Caller ID setting is used only for new conversations. If you would like to change the address from which messages are sent, first change your Caller ID, and then delete the existing conversation and start a new one.
iMessage responses will be sent from the address the recipient most recently messaged. For example, on iPhone you can receive messages sent to your Apple ID and phone number. A friend sends you a message to your Apple ID. Responses in this conversation will be sent from your Apple ID, even if your Caller ID is set to your phone number.

  • HT6154 Why are my texts sending as a text message to another iphone user instead of an imessage?

    I just got my new iphone 5s. Well I have been sending text message to another iphone user and my text are going in as a text message instead of an imessage. The never happened with my iphone 4s.  Also I do not recieve some of my text message till almost an hour later.  This has nothing to do with where I am because I can be down the road from someone and I did not get their message until I got closer to her.  Me and my husband just got these new iphone 5s and we are both having the same problem.  Can someone help?  I don't want to return the phone but if I continue to have this problem I'll just keep my iphone 4s because I never ran into any problems like this prior.

    imessage will send as a SMS when it is unavailable either thru a weak wifi or cellular data signal.  OR the other side has imessage turuned off.

  • IPhone 4s wont send picture messages to non iPhone users.

    I've tried reinstalling the IOS 6, changing the settings, shutting off the phone. I can not send picture messages to non iPhone users but can send texts and receive texts and receive picture messages. just can't send. Help.

        jannwj, sending and receiving pictures is very important these days because we try to capture the moment all the time. I know this issue is frustrating because I take, send, and receive pictures at least 20 times a day. I researched  your issue and did not find this as a known issue. Do you receive a error message? I recommend checking your message settings to ensure they are enabled. I have listed the steps below:
    1) From the home screen, select Settings.
    2) Select Messages.
    3) From MMS Messaging, drag the switch left or right to enable / disable.  Enabled when set to ON.
    Please let me know if this helps. Also ensure the data network is enabled. I have listed steps below:
    1) From the home screen, select Settings.
    2) Select General.
    3) Select Cellular.
    4) Drag the Cellular Data switch left or right to enable / disable cellular data.
    On /Celluar data enabled
    Off /Cellular data disabled
    Keep us posted with the status of your issue.

    When I try to back up my Iphone, I get a message that My Iphone can not be backed up on my computer.  My computer is authorized and I have been successful with this in the past. I uninstalled Itunes and reinstalled the lastest version and the same problem occurs.

    If you are running Tiger, you don't have time machine. 
    You need to get something like SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner (sorry, I don't have a handy link for CCC but you can Google it to get their site) to make a clone of your drive on the external and then do incremental backups.  The free versions do a lot and you can upgrade to the full-service versions for small change if you need more.  The one time I used SuperDuper! for cloning a volume it worked just fine. 
    (My backup application is the last PPC capable version of Retrospect, which does a credible job, or has over the past ten-twelve years.)

  • Why does my email address display when I send a txt message to another iPhone user?

    When I txt MSG another iPhone user, my email address displays on their screen as sender's name.  Is this because I have my email address set as my apple ID?  Can I change my Apple ID name to stop this?

    Go to Settings > Messages > Receive At > Apple ID.
    Sign out of your Apple ID followed by signing back in with your cell phone number selected as your iMessage Caller ID.

  • When trying to send a picture to another iPhone user it comes back as undeliverable. Is there a fix for this?

    Whenever i try to send a picture to fellow iPhone users I get the message "not delivered". The same thing happens to my husband, sister, brother, and sister in law. Is there a fix?

    I'm having the same problem. My MMS messaging is on and I've also tried turning my phone off and back on again. Strangely, some of the messages are getting delivered as my friend said he can see them but I keep getting an undelivered notification.

  • TS2755 When sending a txt message to another iphone user  we both are getting message not delivered but it is, yet when i send txt to an adroid i dont get that message at all so its not a provider issue

    When i txt to Nother iphone we both get message undelivered et when i txt to an adroid phone its fine

    Erase any conversation you have with this person in your Messages, then start a new one and see if it does same thing.    If it still doesn't go through right away, it's a problem with your friend's iMessage setup, not yours.

  • When I send text messages to another iphone on my wireless plan I receive the sent message to my iphone.

    When I send text messages to my wife's iphone I receive the sent message to my iphone.  Is there anyway to prevent this from happening?

    Having seperate apple ID's will fix it, but here's how to fix it without adding a new ID.
    Go to settings, messages, send and receive, be sure your number is the only one checked. If her number is checked as well you will receive your texts to her as well.

  • HT3529 can my daughter send text messages to non iphone users with only an apple id?

    Can you send a text message from ipod touch to non iphone users with only an apple id and no phone number?

    The Apple Messages app will only send Messages to another uses who has the Messages app on their iPod touch, iPad or iPhone. For Messsging an iPod touch or iPad you use the E-mail address they have in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive.  An Phone number will also be listed if they also have an iPhone with iOS 6 using the same Apple ID and yo can use the number.
    You can Message an iPhone by its phone number of the Apple ID email address listed in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive.
