TS4268 Setting up Phone Number on my iPad iMessage Feature

I may not be getting this but, I cannot list my iPhone number under Settings > Messages > Receive At on my iPad.  Any help?

That IS the problem. It will not work in iOS 5. It only works in iOS 6 - which your tag line leads other users to believe that you are running. Don't waste your time. It won't work. Note your tag line at the bottom of Your first post. You listed iOS 6.0.1.

    Symptoms
    Learn to resolve issues with activating FaceTime and iMessage on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Resolution
    iPhone automatically registers your phone number for use with FaceTime and iMessage.

    To use iMessage with your Apple ID, navigate to Settings > Messages > Receive At and tap "Use your Apple ID for iMessage."
    When you enable FaceTime or iMessage with an iPad or iPod touch, you need to enter a valid Apple ID and password. Other users will be able to contact you on FaceTime and iMessage using this email address.If you see "Waiting for Activation", "Activation unsuccessful", or "An error occurred during activation"
    These messages occur when your iPhone is trying to activate your phone number with iMessage or FaceTime.To resolve these status messages, follow these steps. After each step, turn FaceTime and iMessage off and on again in Settings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Make sure that you have a cellular network connection with your cellular provider. You need a cellular network connection to activate iMessage and FaceTime with your iPhone phone number.

    Contact your carrier to verify that there are no restrictions, blocks, or filters on text messages. Restrictions, blocks, or filters on text messaging will prevent iMessage and FaceTime registration from completing.

  • How do I change the phone number in the iPad?

    How can change the phone number in my iPad?

    If you have an iPhone on the same icloud account as your iPad, you should be able to connect your phone number to your iPad to get all your iMessages and FaceTime calls there.
    First, make sure that both devices are on the same iCloud account.
    When they are,  open the settings on your iPhone. Scroll down to "messages" Then, scroll down to find "Send and  receive". Make sure your phone number is listed and check off.
    Then, on your iPad, go to settings, and messages again. Find "send and receive". Then, make sure your phone number is checked off in both spots.
    You should now be able to send and receive iMessages and FaceTime calls on your iPad from your phone number.
    I hope this helps.

  • How do I change a cell phone number on my iPad. I have a new cell phone number and want to use the iCloud

    How do I change my cell phone number on my iCloud account with my iPad? I have a new number and want to activate the iCloud

    If you're talking about the phone number on your iPad for iMessage, the number is associated with the ID when you turn on iMessage on your iPhone.  If the number is incorrect, try turning off iMessage on your phone, wait a minute or so, then turn it back on.

  • TS2795 When I set CALL FWDING  "ON" and I set the phone number and I back to CALL FWDING, the option returns to "OFF" status, why this is happening ?

    Hello,
    Can someone help me to activate the Call Forwarding option on IPhone 5, OS 6.01 ??
    Currently I am trying:
    * Settings -> Phone -> Call Forwarding -> "ON" -> SET THE PHONE NUMBER ->"Call Forwarding button"
    But when the screen returns to Call forwarding, the option returns to "OFF" mode.
    * I already try to call to *72 to "activate" the call forwarding option, just didn't work.
    I don't know if I need to do an additional configuration, If someone has an idea, please let me know!!
    Regards
    Cami

    Who is your carrier? Not all carriers support enabling and disabling call forwarding using the controls in Settings.

    The iPad is not capable of sending an SMS message so texts, pictures, etc., must go through iMessage.  The destination device must be registered with the Apple servers by turning on iMessage.  Therefore, the user with the iPhone must enable it for iMessage.

  • ICloud keychain: can't set up phone number

    When setting up my keychain protection code i've chosen "generate random code", finished all steps and now option for setting up phone number in iCloud Keychain settings isn't available (not visible in iOS and disabled on Mac). If i change protection code any other ways (4-digit number or custom) then i can set up phone number.
    So why is that happening - why i can't set up validation phone number when i use random-generated security code?

    Turn off iMessage, Reset your iPhone (hold down the sleep and home button, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons), turn iMessage back on and see if it now shows your number.
    If you are using a non-supported cell provider you will have to try other remedies.
