How can I send imessages from my phone number instead of my email?
My phone reset and now my imessages only send from my email address instead of from my phone number. I tried settings> messages> send and receive and unchecked the email listed like i saw to try on previous questions, but instead of fixing my problem, it just made it so that now i cant send imessages whatsoever! How can i fix this? I just want to send imessages from my number instead of my email address!
Hi gracem0324,
Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, and click on your Apple ID and sign out of Messages. Then sign on again. Sometimes it needs to reset itself....
Cheers,

Help removing imessage from a phone number no longer being used by an iphone
Hi everyone. Hoping for some help with a bizarre issue. I switched from an iphone 3gs to an android a few months ago, but when some (not all) friends w/ iphone's text me, it tries to send it as an imessage from their phones. I don't receive the texts for hours at a time. Is there something I can do to prevent this? Or is on their end? This has even happened with people who I have exchanged numbers with well after I made the switch from iphone to android which I find particularly weird.
If you still have your 3GS put your SIM back in it and turn off iMessage. If you don't have it but you did register it with Apple, do this:
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Log in if not already logged in
Click on "edit products"
Click on the "x" to the right of the product
Click "unregister"
This deactivates number with iMessage. -

How do I send iMessages via my phone number from my iPad 2 on iOS 6
I have an iPad 2, an iPad 3, and an iPhone 5 all running iOS 6. I can send messages from my phone number from the iPad 3 and the iPhone 5 but the option is not available on the iPad 2. I am signed in with the same Apple ID across all three devices. What am i doing wrong???
Here's the go to info on Massages app. Perhaps knowing your own kit you can figure out where the configuration on a device is incorrect.

How do you combine iMessage sent to phone number and email?
I talk to someone who sends me imessages to my phone number from their phone, and also from their ipad to my email. Both phone number and email are under the same contact. But the mesages go into 2 different threads. Id like to combine them since being under the same contact they show up exactly the same in the messages list.. so i cant tell if im messaging the ipad or the phone..
ideally id like to write a message to that contact and it would go to both their ipad and iphone...
anyways.. how do I combine them?This is possible and you can also send and receive iMessages to your MacBook from one phone number without having to use any email address whatsoever. This also means you will have one chat thread with all of your messages not two.
Anyone will tell you that I am a hardcore Apple Fan, however, sometimes they lack in the instructions area. For a while now I have had a problem with iMessages being sent from my MacBook. I could send an iMessage from my phone with no problem and my friend would receive it from my phone number however, the problem would arise when I would send a iMessage from my MacBook to to the same friend and a new thread would be created, so in essence she would have two different messages for me, one from my phone number and one from my email. After numerous attempts of contacting Apple Customer Service with no avail, I eventually figured it out on my own. I did aggrate some friends because I had to send messages relentlessly. In the end I found a solution and here are the instructions.
You’re going to go into iMessage on your computer, go to messages in the top left, click on preferences and then click on accounts. Look under “you can be reached for messages at” you should see your email and or your phone number.
If you do not see your phone number you need to add it to your account at this site. “https://appleid.apple.com/” click on manage your Apple ID and then sign in. After you sign in you will go to another screen and on your left you’ll see a list of choices click on phone numbers. Add your phone number and click save changes. It usually takes a few seconds for your iMessage account to update. Completely quit iMessage in the toolbar and then reopen it and go back into messaging preferences and then accounts.
After that has been done your phone number should now be added to the “you can be reached for messages at” section. Click on your phone number and then uncheck your email address.
Then go into your iPhone settings, messages, then scroll down to send and receive. Uncheck any email, only your phone number should have a checkmark, if your phone number does not have a checkmark... check it. You should receive a pop-up on your iPhone saying so-and-so’s MacBook is now using “insert phone number here” for iMessages. -
All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone....
Hi Chas869,
Hmm, that is strange that your phone number is greyed out. There are a few things that we can try. First would be to turn iMessages off, then back on. See if you are able to select your phone number. Then if that doesn't work, turn iMessages back off, then reset the network settings....settings>general>reset>reset network settings, this will reboot the phone. Don't worry, it won't delete anything from the phone, it simulates a battery pull. Once the device comes back on, then turn iMessages back on. Keep us posted if that works!

Sometimes my friends I'm in a group message with ecieve my iMessage from my email address and other times its from my phone number. I have the caller id for iMessages set as my email address so I can receive them on my iPad too but my iPhone randomly decides to still send it from my phone number sometimes. Why?

How can I disable iMessage on my phone number now that I don't have an iPhone?
I transfered my number to an iPhone for about 3 months. Now I'm on a different phone with the same number. Every time an iPhone user tries to send me a text/SMS message, it's sent via iMessage and I never receive it.
I've removed the phone number from my Apple Support account. iPhone users still default to sending me iMessages. iPhone users can manually choose to send me SMS and I will receive the message. I receive text/SMS from every other type of phone on every carrier without fail.
How can I get my number out of the iPhone/iMessage system entirely?Go to https://supportprofile.apple.com
Log in with your Apple ID and password.
Select the product you need to de-register (your iPhone, for example).
Click Unregister
