Updating Ipad to provider Cellular number for face time

when I purchased my ipad mini I set it up with my existing apple id which had my iphone cell number included in it. I have since obtained a separate cell number to use with my ipad and would like to update the information to include this number. How would I go about this?

If you are talking about the phone number that is assigned to a cellular iPad, you cannot be reached using that phone number.
If you added a second iPhone to your account and it is associated with your Apple ID, sign out of Messages on the phone and the iPad, then sign in again on one of the iPhones and both numbers should be accessible to use when you activate Messages on the iPad again

  • How i can change the phone number for face time in iPhone 6

    plas i want change my old number to new number for face time in iPhone

    Go into Settings, turn FaceTime off. Power the phone off/on. Go back into Settings, turn on FaceTime and let it activate. The phone number comes from the SIM and the activation message. It should populate the correct number.

  • After iOS 6 update, iPad has wrong phone number for Facetime

    I have my phone as well as my mom's on my iTunes account. She updated her phone today and signed into my account. When I updated my iPad this evening, it then associated my iPad with her number for Facetime and I've spent the last 2 hours searching for how to change it without success. It has my email--since it's the only one associated with the iTunes account, but I'd like to not have her phone on my iPad. Anyone have any ideas on how to get her number off of it?

    Do you have the mute switch engaged? It's the little slider over the volume buttons on the side. If you can see orange, it's engaged. Slide it the other way.

  • I am trying to update software for face time on my iPad 2, but it won't connect.

    I am trying to update software for face time, but it won't connect.

    There is no update for FaceTime as it is included with iOS 7.0.4.
    What specifically is your problem with FaceTime? Do you have a wifi/internet connection?

  • Apple ID.  My newly updated iPad 2 wants an email for the apple ID.  My apple ID is not an email address.  How can I get past the set-up screen?

    My newly updated iPad 2 wants an email for the apple ID.  My apple ID is not an email address.  How can I get past the set-up screen?
    I can't change my Apple ID.  It would mess all my stuff up.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • TS4268 Phone Number isn't even an option to use for Face Time or Imessaging

    In the past few days, my phone number has gone from being gray and uncheckable to use for face time and Imessaging, to not even being an option to use.  I can only use my Apple ID now.  How do i get my phone number back as an option?  I thought the phone was supposed to automatically recognize my number as an option?

    Sign out of both iMessage and Facetime. Sign back in. Your number should be available again.
    Best of luck.

  • I keep getting "incorrect password" when I try to sign in for face-time

    I keep getting "incorrect password" when I try to sign in for face-time on my new iPad. the pw works fine in apps and to get in here just not on face time.
    Should I uninstall face time (if i can find out how!) and then if I do that, can I download it (and from where?) to re-install? it was on the desktop when I got the iPad

    You can't uninstall native apps. Sign out completely from facetime, itunes and app stores.
    then:
    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    Sign back in to facetime

  • HT5538 How do you separate multiple iOS devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

    How do you separate multiiple ios devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

    The only way I have seen is to have each device use a if fervent email account, if they all are on the same email the FaceTime connection is either to a phone number or to an email address.  If they ar all on the same email, it is up to the user to decide which to use.

    My iPhone and iPad are set up under the same account and when I try to FaceTime with the iPad or vice versa it says face time is busy and will not connect, how do I fix this

    I can call my ipad with my iphone alll the time.  That's how I check up on my kids at home when I"m at work. You just set up to your iphone's facetime setting with your phone number and set up your ipad's facetime settings with your apple id (in this case it's your email)

  • HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

    Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • HT1766 I loaded the software fix for face time and it wiped out my contacts and photos. can I restore them?

    I loaded the software fix for face time and in loading the new software I lost all of my other content (WITHOUT ANY WARNING). This included my contacts, photos, music. The music I can restore and losing the contacts is an inconvenience, but losing the photos is devastating.
    Any ideas?

    What software fix for FaceTime? What software did you apply?
    Did you backup your iPhone before you updated it with whatever update you applied as described in HT1766? If so, did you backup to iCloud or iTunes? Either way your  data should be restorable from that backup.
