Why does a different number come up when i use imessage instead of text? my friends keep responding to my msg with 'who is this?' since ios 5 update.!!?

Why does a different number come up when i messaging to other i phones? My friends keep responding to my imessage with 'who is this' and apparently it comes from another number-not my usual number like texts...

Thanks. The number shown against 'phone' is not my number. But it is the number my friend showed me that was coming up when she got my mgs.... Still confused!

  • Why does the color wheel come up when I   I can't get rid of it.

    Why does the color wheel come up when I try to open an email? I can't get rid of it unless I sign in again!

    The spinning beach ball of death (SBBOD) can be caused by many things. Common causes are not enough RAM, insufficient HD space or another process using a lot of the CPU's power. You can open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) for many things including the %CPU column to see if there is an app using a large %CPU. Also click the System Memory tab and see how much FREE RAM it shows. As a general rule your system should have 500MB or more available.
    Finally I'd recommend reading and using the Spinning Beach Ball of Death article for additonal troubleshooting steps. 

  • Why does my internal speakers come on when i plug in my headphones?

    Why does my speakers only work?when i try to listen to music thru my headphoes it doesnt work, and my headphones are perfectly fine because i tested them out on other ipods.... and i even tried to push in the headphone flush but that doesnt work either. what do i do?!!??

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Rest. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Likely a bad headphone jack. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm

  • Why does the hand tool come up when I click the mouse?

    I am a very knowledgable individual of InDesign but this is a stumper. I cannot use any single tool that I have. When I press the buttons on the side, for instance the text tool, the image that should appear for the cursor does, but once I click the mouse, the hand tool comes up and drags my page around. This is even when the hand tool is not even selected. I am not pressing any buttons on the keyboard or anything, this is quite frusterating. I am trying to do this job and can't even edit previous files or make a new one. Should I reinstall, or what? Please help!! Thank you.

  • Why does the font size change unexpectedly when I use the touchpad with my new HP laptop with Windows 8?

    Frequently the font size will change when the touchpad is touched. This is annoying! Is there a setting adjustment I can make to keep this from happening?

    This is very experimental, but since no one else has replied...
    I'm not sure which computers are affected, but Firefox has some support for touchpad "gestures" on multi-touch touchpads. Most of the ones that affect the zoom level of the page are the "pinching" gestures, like a smartphone screen. However, it seems that by default a "tap" will reset the zoom level, and that might be the problem here.
    Could you try this?
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''gest''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''browser.gesture.tap''' and change it to... I'm not sure whether there is a command for "do nothing" but you could try typing or pasting in '''cmd_selectNone''' which cancels the current text selection in the page (if any).

  • HT1320 why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer

    why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer

    It's not a "fix," actually.  If that is a 4th gen iPod connected using USB, you need to do what it says and plug it in to the white square power adapter that originally came with those models.  Later Apple power adapters should work; third-party adapters may or may not work.  It has something to do with voltage.  The USB connection to computer does not provide the required voltage (although it's obviously fine for normal syncing and charging).
    If that iPod is connected to a FireWire port, it apparently provides the required voltage, because that step does not come up during the Restore.  That model was a transition between iPod connecting to FireWire and connecting to USB.  Earlier models required FireWire.  Later models only used USB.
    If you don't have an adapter, and there is an Apple Store nearby, I guess you could take it to the store's Genius Bar.  I'm sure they have a power adapter there, to complete the Restore.  (Just don't let them re-do the Restore on a Mac, if you use a Windows PC. Different storage formatting.)

    Why does my FCX program quit suddenly when I try to capture from my camcorder?
    When it opens it says "no codec found". I used HDV Apple intermediate codec 1080i60. What codec should I use?

    Do you mean Final Cut Express or FCP X?
    These are two different apps.

  • Why does my iMac display go off when I am starting up or waking up my machine from sleep..

    Why does my iMac display go off when I am starting up or waking up my machine from sleep..?
    When my iMac goes to sleep I then later try to click the magic track pad or keyboard and it will usually then show the initial password entry login screen and then go off. The machine is still on but the display is black and will sometimes flash up the screen again if I press the magic track pad or keyboard but will then black out again..

    Well, there are many different reasons why it does this. It might shut off due to power voltage problems, system overheats, or there is a System Problem. The reason it might be hard to boot up is because your power button might not work properly or your system hard drive is damaged.

  • Why does Dreamweaver upload a blank page when i "put" a .php or .html file that I just edited. It's

    Why does Dreamweaver upload a blank page when i "put" a .php or .html file that I just edited. It's like Dreamweaver isn't putting the complete file. So when i check my work (refresh the page), it is now blank. This happens about 50 percent of the time and can occur with any of the websites I maintain. (If I pull out my macbookpro, i can edit and upload the page, but the screen is smaller and i would rather be at my desktop). I am using CS5 on a MacPro, operating system 10.7.5.

    I've never heard of that type of error before. If it were happening to me, here are a few things I would do...
    Verify it's DW
         Download Filezilla (free and very nice in reality) and make sure it uploads correctly from there to rule out connection issues
    Rebuild Site Cache
         From the Files window of your site, click the menu and go to Site > Recreate Site Cache
    Delete DW File Cache
         If the above does nothing, I'd kill my DW Cache File: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
    Uninstall, clean, reinstall
         Uninstall the program, use the cleaner tool here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html to kill everything (Adobe leaves behind things that are picked up again in a normal uninstall/reinstall) then reinstall it.
