  • Since updating to Iso 6 my iMessages are showing as coming from my email address, anyone know how to fix this?

    Since updating to Iso 6 my iMessages are showing as coming from my email address, anyone know how to fix this?

    I figured out my problem...... I have custom text tones set up for certain ppl and had the default text tone set to "none" well with the iOS6 update it made it so if your default text tone is set on "none" then you won't hear what I call the send and recieve text sounds when in a converstation... if you change the default text tone to any text tone other than "none" you will get your send and recieve sounds back.... kinda annoying if you don't won't random texts from ppl waking you up... so I made a custon text tone that is called silence with just recording a few seconds of dead noise then edited it and turned all the sound levels down to 0 and set that as my default text tone.... now I have the send and recieve text sounds in a conversation and everything is fine! Sorry Nehucskter the first time I had this problem thats the first thing I did was reboot my phone.... first thing you do for everything lol....

  • HT3529 my iphone just stop connecting to my wifi and i have tried all the recommended troubleshooting with no success. Also when i send a text , it shows it coming from my email address instead of my cell #. i cant get a text going to my cell #. help

    my iphone just stopped connecting to my wifi and i have tried all the recommended troubleshooting with no success. Also when i send a text , it shows it coming from my email address instead of my cell #.  i dont receive any text going to my cell #. help

    If i understand what you are saying then you are seeing the WiFi indicator after connecting but Apps are saying that they are not connected to the internet?
    Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be to restart your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • IMesssage has stopped using my cell phone number and is only showing email addresses -- in other words, when I text, it is showing up as coming from an email address, even when i use my phone.   Laptop

    iMesssage has stopped using my cell phone number and is only showing email addresses -- in other words, when I text, it is showing up as coming from an email address, even when i use my phone.   The laptop and phone are still synchronized and messages are showing on both devices.
    I've seen this before and was able to fix in Settings, but that is not working now.
    Please help.  Thanks.

    Did you replace your iPhone with some other kind of phone? If your phone number is no longer connected to an active iPhone, you can't use it to message from your Mac.

  • I recently had to erase my Iphone 5s. Now, when I send texts, it shows them coming from my email address.  I'd rather it just showed them coming from my phone

    I recently had to erase my IPhone 5S, and now it's been restored, and when I text, it shows my messages coming from my email address rather than from my phone # or my name, like they used to be shown.   How can I change this setting back to the way it was?   Thanks

    I presume you can see "You can be reached at ...", so do you only see your email there? (i.e. no phone number?)  If so, then the "send from" may not be an option since your iPhone only has one point of contact, your email.
    If you don't see your phone number under "You can be reached at ..." then sign out of iMessage and FaceTime, then send a text message to any non-iOS friend you know, then sign back into iMessage and FaceTime.  That may re-establish your phone number with Apple's servers.

  • When I send a text message it shows up as coming from my email address not my phone, can i change this

    when I send a text message it shows up as coming from my email address not my phone, can i change this

    another way to change it is :
    go to settings -> phone -> my number (iput your phone number)
    and then do what razmee209 said,
    after you change it, your phone number will authenticate with the operator that you use,
    I hope this could help you,

  • Why do I get txt from my email address

    MMy son and I share an email for our iPhone 5c when he txt me I someti get 2 one from my email address and one from my number but not from his.  People have told me when I send a message it sometimes shows up as my email also and ask me who I am cause they dnt have it in their contacts.  Why is this happening.  Have had our phones for a year almost and this is just not happening in the last 2 weeks.

    Look at Settings>Messages>Send and Receive From  ...On his iPhone click on your email address so that the check mark goes away.  Do the same on your iPhone to uncheck his email.  You apparently also share an Apple ID.

  • IMessage sends from different email addresses

    iMessage sends messages from different email addresses when it used to just say my name associated with my cell number. How can I change it back?

    Try this:
    Sign out of iMessage on all devices. Sign back in on your iPhone. Wait until it is completely activated. Then, sign back in on the other devices using the same Apple ID.

  • Why are my iMessages coming up as my email address?

    So starting about 2-3 months ago, I have been sending iMessages to people from my phone whom I have sent them before and know I am an existing contact in their phone.  Suddenly I started to  get the same reply from most of them:  "Who is this?"  Of course, I identified myself and people responed "Why is it coming up as a strange email address?"  I would ask if it was coming up with my apple ID, which is was.
    So why is this happening?  I did upgrade from a iPhone 4 to a iPhone 5, but I know that wasn't the cause, because one of them was a coworker who started long after I got my 5.  I didn't do anything different that I know of, and it has happened before and after iOS 7.X.  It has becoming very annoying, especially when it is to my boss, whom I usually don't text, and he hasn't added my personal email address to his contacts.
    I do have an iPad Mini; however, I have messaging disabled on it.
    Does anyone know what could be causing this?
    Thanks.

    You might try this Settungs>Messages>Send and Receive>Start New Conversations From>check your phone number

  • Why are my iMessages sent from iOS (6.0) and OSX (10.8.2) being received in two different dialog boxes?

    I'm trying to unify my iMessages sent from my iPhone 4S and my rMBP. iMessages I send from my iPhone to my friend's iPhone is in one window, and if I send another from messages on my rMBP it is sent to a different contact box on my friend's phone.
    Is there any way to fix this, I've been trying different combinations of caller id settings on both and I'm so confused.
    Thanks in advance!

    ..I just find it strange that Oracle doesn't cache these blocks for me by replacing some of the aged blocks in the cache.
    Flushing the buffer_cache seems to have the desired effect, as it does then get cached.
