Validate text filed - phone number or integer?

I am trying to validate a field that requires a phone number but I want to make sure that the user enters only numbers and cannot enter a (1) before the number.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

How to NOT dial text in phone number with a note like "555-1212 John only"

I have some phone numbers that have text after them like "dont' call after 6". They were entered on Address Book on my desktop Mac. When I call these numbers from the contacts on the iPhone, it dials the letters also, which is annoying since they contintue beeping while the person has answered. Any suggestions on how to get the iPhone NOT to dial these parts of the number? Is there some magic character that makes it stop dialling? What does it do if the number is like 555-1212 x3434?
Lloyd

lslonim,
You may want to take the text out of the phone number field, otherwise the iPhone will assume it's part of the number you are dialing. You can add the "don't call after 6" message in the Notes field so that you can still see the reminder, but the iPhone does not continue to dial after the recipient has answered.
If you have a number that has an extension, you can set up the phone number to have pauses so that the extension can be auto-dialed when you select that phone number. Pauses are found under the "+*#" icon in the lower left-hand corner when you are adding a phone number to a contact. That will allow the iPhone to dial 555-1212, pause for a few seconds, and continue with 3434. You may have to experiment with the number of pauses needed to dial the number correctly.
Hope this helps,
Jennifer B.

IMessages, text from phone number

I noticed today that I can only start conversations in iMessages from registered email addresses and not my phone number. Has anyone else noticed this? I know I have been able to do this in the past, but today the phone number option is gone.

settings - message - send and receive - see if your number is greyed out with a check mark.
also check start a new convo.

How to prevent users from entering '+' or '0' in front of country code in the phone number field?

Requirement:
How can I prevent guest users from entering '+' sign or '0' in front of country-code in the visitor phone number field during self registration?
Few SMS service providers are not looking for '+' sign or '0' or '00' in front of the international phone numbers to trigger the sms. Providing these values in front of country code during self-registration may fail to deliver the sms to recipient.
Solution:
Using a simple regular expression, you can validate the entered phone number during the guest registration.
The below regular expression will help you to validate the phone number and allows to register only when the phone number is not staring with '+' or '0'.
^[1-9][0-9](\d{7}|\d{8}|\d{9}|\d{10}|\d{11}|\d{12})$
It also performs the below validations.
only numbers are allowed.
first digit of the entered phone number should be 1 to 9, so '+' or '0' is not allowed.
numbers from 0 to 9 are allowed from the second digit.
also validates phone number length, the length of the phone number should be 9 to 14.
Configuration:
To add the above regex in the visitor_phone number filed, please navigate to ClearPass Guest >> Configuration >> (Pages)Guest Self-Registration >> select the self-registration page and go to Edit >> Register Page >> Form >> select the filed visitor_phone and set the Validator to " ISRegexMatch" and enter the above regex in the Validator Argument filed as shown below.
Note: Edit the Validation Error as per your requirement.
Verification
Adding the given regex will validate the phone number and prevent the guest user from registering the phone number starts with '+' or '0'.
Please find below the sample outputs for your reference.
Result when phone number starts with '+' or '0'.
Successful registration.

Validate string to verify it is (probably) a phone number

What would I do in expression editor to validate that a string meets the basic constraints for a North American phone number? All I care do at this point is compare the entered string and make sure it matches this pattern: [2-9]XX[2-9]XXXXXX
Thanks much!

I'm curious, where/how are you getting the number?
Either way, assuming you've already validated the length of digits you can skip the need for regex, granted this method is less robust but simpler to implement:
if(phoneNumber.charAt(0) <= 49 || phoneNumber.charAt(3) <= 49)
     True:
          Number is invalid
     False:
          Number is valid.
The way this works is as such: based on the pattern you describe, either the first digit, or the 4th must be between 2 and 9. Based on that, we grab those digits and compare them. The value 49 is the integer value of the character '1', so by testing less than or equal too, you can ensure that the number provided is either 0 or 1
As I said, the code Anthony provided is more robust, you can match on a greater granularity (although I believe his implementation could be improved, no offense Anthony), however if you want to simply ensure they don't input a 0 or 1.

HT3529 My friend switched his phone number from an iPhone to a Blackberry. My phone still wants to use iMessage to send him a text and won't let me send it as a text unless I turn off iMessage on my phone. Is there a fix for this?

TechCrunch posted a solution today that applies to this problem, I think.
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Click your old iPhone and "unregister" it.

I send an email from my Iphone to a friend. My friend receives it on her Iphone, but as text message. She replies and it goes back to my daughter's phone, a completely different email and phone number. Why?

I send an email from my Iphone to a friend. My friend receives it on her Iphone, but as text message. She replies and it goes back to my daughter's phone, a completely different email and phone number. Why?

We went through my friend's phone and my daughter's email and phone number are not in it. I have never given my daughter's iphone number to my friend. Is it something to do with gmail or my apple id? My daughter (14) has been using my computer as her "base" for HER Iphone.
My friend does use her iphone number as an email address as well.
For instance: her phone number might look like this: (493) 305-3958
and her email address would look like this: [email protected]
If I Iphone/email my friend, she receives it as a text message. Then if she replies to that text message, it goes to my daughter's phone and not mine. It's completely crazy! We searched her phone contacts and did not find my daughter's phone number anywhere or attached anywhere to mine. Since when does Iphone emailing wind up in the text messaging area?

I just bought an iPhone and it seemed to be working well until I went to sync it to my computer and it synced under my old ipod. Now when I go to text it sends as my email and I can't change it to my phone number or anything. How can I fix this?

Pretty much what the title says but if for some reason it doesn't...
I just got an iPhone 4 today and it was working well until I went to hook it up to my computer and it asked me if I wanted to set it up as a new phone or back up all my stuff from my old ipod.
I accidentally clicked that and it had pretty much ruined my phone, deleted all contacts everything. I then did a reset through itunes and now when I send a text message it sends as my email instead of my phone number.
I've gone to settings->messages and turned off and on imessage and didn't fix it.
How do I fix this?

Yeah, you fried the phone big time.
Go into iMessage settings and set the Caller ID to your phone number.

I replaced my iPhone with a Galaxy 5 and am not receiving all of my text messages. The sales person told me to remove my phone number from iTunes to stop this from happening. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages?

I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?

You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

How do I stop the texts from other iPhone users trying to reach the person who has my old phone number?

I no longer have cell phone service but I still use my iphone every day for apps and imessage. Now someone has my old phone number. It seems that this person does not have a iphone. Everytime one of their friends with an iphone tries to text them the message goes to my iphone. I have tried many things to stop this. I took my old phone number off my apple account and I took out my old sim card. But I still am getting texts from other iphones attempting to reach whom ever has my old phone number. HELP please. This person is very popular, at first it was funny now its annoying. I'm sure the person with my old number is even more upset than I since they are actully paying for service.

Hello there, lalaysa.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for unlinking your old phone number from your device:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
Unlink a phone number
To remove a phone number from an Apple ID, sign out of FaceTime and Messages on your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
This should remove your phone number from other devices using the same Apple ID with FaceTime and Messages. If the phone number is still available on other devices after you sign out of FaceTime and iMessage on the iPhone, you may need to sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your devices, then sign in to FaceTime and Messages again on devices you want to use.
Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.
