Why does my phone come up as my email address when texting or calling

When I call or text anyone from my iPhone my email address is displayed not my number. It happens with whoever I'm texting or calling.
Any ideas??

All iPhone apps are digitally signed using the Apple ID they were purchased with.  You CANNOT change this.  You either enter the password for the original Apple ID, or you delete the App and download a new copy using the new Apple ID.  Free apps that do not have lots of in-app content (like your Solitare High Score) are not a problem.  Paid apps and free apps with lots of built-up/earned content can be very annoying as you have to re-pay for the app and/or build-up/earn that content again.

  • Why does Verizon Wireless ask to confirm my email address when I touch the Google Chrome app, but not respond when the correct info is entered?

    I touch the Chrome app icon on my Droid and a Verizon message comes up. It asks me to confirm my email address as shown on the screen, and has a field for entering my billing zip. When I do so, it flashes as if processing but comes right back to the same screen with the zip code field empty. I went on line and confirmed that all info in my profile was correct. Anyone out there with the same problem and/or help?

        Lets get to the bottom of this, Dwix! I personally use the Google Chrome application and love it. I am confident that we can figure it out together. Did you just start using the application? Have you had this message pop-up before? You mentioned that it is a Verizon Message, does it come in a form of a text message? Is it possible for you to send us a screenshot of this message?
    Please share the details needed so that we can better assist!
    Thank you,

    Why does my inbox say I have a email but when I open inbox no email

    Do a reset, hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

    when i send a text/imessage why does the person receiving it see my email address instead of my name??

    iMessage requires both parties be using iOS 5. The iPhone 3 can not be upgraded to iOS 5, thus messages would be sent as an SMS (Text message)

  • How do I get phone #'s to come up instead of email addresses when trying to send a MMS?

    I just got my Galaxy S4 2 days ago and was trying to send a picture from my gallery as a text message to a friend.  I know I can start from messaging, and then attach the picture, but I was already in the picture, so clicked on the messaging icon from the picture, and when I started typing my friend's name, it only brought up her email address, not her phone #.  I didn't want to email her, I wanted to send it to her phone as a text message.  The only way I could do this was to start typing her phone #, instead of her name.  I don't know a lot of people's phone #'s by heart, so I don't understand why it isn't bringing up phone #'s when I start to type the person's name?  I had the Droid Razr before, and that's how I always sent pictures.  When I started typing a name it would bring up phone #'s and email addresses to choose from.  If anyone knows how to change this, I would love to know how!

    Try this:
    Click on the Contacts icon
    Select the Menu key
    Select Settings
    If the Only contacts with phones is checked, uncheck it

  • Why does it say More. . . in email address line when there is only one email address?

    When receiving an email, why does it say 'More. . .' in the To email address line when there is only one email address? It looks like there is more than one recipient when there is actually just one. 

    Have you rebooted since the deletions.  That will empty a number of caches and may restore the freed up space. Also open the iPhoto Library package with the Finder as shown in this screenshot
    locate the iPod Photo Cache folder and delete its contents.  Make no other changes to the contents of the iPHoto LIbrary Package.

  • Why does I sometimes see other people's email address on iTunes Apple ID field when signing in or authorising?

    I bought a new iMac (21.5 inch)  about 6 weeks ago (in July). When I first opened up iTunes and was about to sign in to my Apple account, I found a random email address of someone I've never heard of in the Apple ID field. I just ignored it.
    Today, I was authorising iTunes again and i found another person's email address. I've 'googled' the email address and it looks like it belong to someone from Australia (when I live in the UK and never been to Australia). This email address was on Gmail.
    This is strange and I can't think of any possibilites on why its there? Any suggestions? Do you think I should email that address and see if I can find out anything?

    That is strange. It sounds like you have saved login usernames & passwords on your System. It almost sounds like someone bought the computer before you and returned it. Where did you buy it, an Apple Retail Store.
    When you started up the computer for the first time, did you need to go through the whole setup assistant to set up your user account.
    You can look in a few places to see what's going on.
    Open Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access. In the Keychain access Sidebar/Login/Passwords. See if there are keychain entries you did not create.
    In Safari/Preferences/Autofill/User names and passwords/Edit. See if there are saved items you did not create

  • Why does my mail get returned from some email addresses

    When I send email to one particular email address, even though I have not been blocked, the email gets bounced back to me. Why is that and how can I solve it?

    The mail server returns the mail as not able to be delivered and tells me it is a permanent error. The email address is correct. I have been given another company email address to send to and that has the same end result. I am not blocked by them and all my other emails are being sent to their destinations. What else can I say?

  • Why does iPhone automatically enter my entire email address when I simply type "gmail" and how to I turn it off?

    Why does my iPhone automatically enter my entire email address when I simply type "gmail" and how to I turn it off?  It also does it whenever I type it in Safari (but not Chrome) and it only does it with one of my email addresses and not any of my other ones (i.e., yahoo, hotmail, etc.). 
    Thanks so much for your help!

    I don't see visible underscores in that login form, but they appear to be entered (that form isn't high enough to show them for me).
    You can verify that in the Scratchpad and use Execute > Display after pasting the below posted code.
    * Firefox/Tools > Web Developer > Scratchpad (Shift+F4)
    <pre><nowiki>document.getElementById("userid").value;</nowiki></pre>
