I just bought a 4S for my wife and when she sends me a text in iMessage it comes up with her email in the caller id. On my iPhone 4 I can go to settings/messages/receive at/caller id and select number or email. On the 4S under settings/messages there is no 'receive at' option. Any other places to go and make the change?
I was showing a friend how to activate his email address in imessage and set his caller ID to his itunes email so that he could receive messages both on his iphone and ipad. And now imessage has stopped working. Orange (his carrier) is now sending us emails about our "multimedia message". Imessage was working when it was set just to his phone number.
I just bought the iphone 4s, as did my boyfriend. Both of us have no problem texting other people via imessage and text, but when we try to imessage one another, it comes up with two different windows. I checked the "Receive at" portion of the imessage settings, and although we both have our phone number linked to our apple id, it only shows up with email address. No Caller ID option, or phone number. The "remove email address" portion is also greyed out, and where my imessage is turned on, it says "waiting for activation." I checked with my apple id, and the email address is verified.
I had the tour first and since upgrading to .732 since the BOLD has the same software and i now have the bold 9650-verizon. When my phone rings the last callers name will come up first then automatically change to current caller.Has this been happening to anyone?
This is my first bb and I love it to bits...I have noticed that today whenever i receive a call I have the same caller id showing as the first person that rang me after I switched my phone on this morning...and that was my wife...so I have been answering "hi gorgeous" to everyone all day!
I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 when it was released. My friend updated his iPhone 4S delayed, yesterday. Before yesterday iMessage worked well between our iPhones.But since my friend updated to iOS 5.1 as well, iMessage does not work anymore between our two iPhones.iMessage works well with all other adresses we both use as well. But only our two iPhones cannot use iMessage anymore.
i have noticed that after switching to ios 5.1 my phone has been acting funny. for example: when i am messaging other iphone users with iMessage, it keeps switching from iMessage to regular text every 2 or 3 messages. at first i thought it was the other person since i am normally within my works wifi network and at my home wifi network, but it seems that this problem only occurs to other people when imessaging with me and not with anyone else. and this problem occurs to me while imessaging everyone, so i have come to the conclusion that the problem must be my phone. i have noticed this problem to occur since updating to ios 5.1. has anyone else experienced this problem? what can i do? i am 2 steps shy of reinstalling my phone.
My iPhone 4 which is appx 4 years old with latest iOS has developed this problem last week. After a hello on connecting a call with anyone, it just goes blank. Neither am I able to hear any voice from the other side nor the person on the other side is able to hear me. I hVe to disconnect the call and use SMS or whatsapp. Is there anything I can do to correct it?
Just bought a 3GS and very pleased with it but is there no way to get it to announce the caller id?I'd imagine this is a commonly requested function but when i've got my phones in, i like the fact that it mutes my music and allows me to engage the call but there's no way of knowing who's calling without assigning custom ringtones.. I'd really like it to announce the caller id, is there not an app for this? i'm aware of the garageband trick but i'd rather this only work when the headphones are connected.
I updated iPhone 4 to 5.0.1 and since could not hear caller unless i used the ext speaker. Apple Store at Southland said to update to 5.1 and it should fix.....It didn't?
I just replaced the LCD and the screen on my iphone 3G. It's all back together and working great - except there is no sound from the phone speaker. I can hear it ring and I can listen to messages. And the caller can hear me. But I can't hear the caller. My guess is this has to do with connection no. 3 because I had some trouble getting that one back in and may have damaged it. I've taken it apart and re-tried several times. When I flip the clamp the male end is secured. But it has never felt to me like I got the male end all the way seated back in the female end.
I used to be able to set my caller ID as hidden for making calls but now it appears that I have lost that feature. The respective menu is showing as ON (settings, phone, show my caller ID - ON) and greyed out, so I can't disable it. How can cancel it and have my caller ID back to hidden?
Is there anyway that we can block our phone number from displaying to customers using facetime? We've tried using *67 but that completely blocks the facetime application from even running. The other idea was to forward from our google voice number to the iPhone but that still displays our personal numbers when we intiate facetime.I know when Apple offered the Facetime demo their phone numbers were blocked when facetime opened. Is there some option we're missing that will allow us to block our number when using facetime?
I just installed a Sony XNV-770BT in dash Nav/Receiver with bluetooth capability in my vehicle. Both my wife and I have the iPhone 4S with AT&T. The caller id name/number will show up on the iphone, but will not pass through to the Sony unit, until after you answer the call. (This of course defeats the whole purpose of caller id!) Before you answer the call it says "Withheld", which is the Sony term for blocked, I guess.
It seems that there are quite a few issues with various iphones not passing the caller id info through to bluetooth devices, but I have not been able to find a solution to my specific problem. I called Sony and they offered to send me a new unit after I remove the one I just installed and return it to them, because they said the caller id feature is supposed to work with the iphone 4s. But this is a lot of trouble to go through only to find out the new unit acts the same way and it is really an iphone issue. The caller id pass through does not work with either mine or my wife's phone - I did the recent iOS 5.1 update and my wife has not. Here are the bluetooth profiles that the Sony unit supports:
Compatible Bluetooth® Profiles : A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile)1.2
AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile)1.3
HFP (Handsfree Profile)1.5
OPP (Object Push Profile)
PBAP (Phone Book Access Profile)
We also downloaded our phonebooks into the Sony and and it does not make a difference if the call comes from a phonebook contact or not...
The caller voice volume has become low on my iPhone (I think it's a 3G, not sure how to tell). The ringer volume works fine. Is there a setting to raise the voice volume?
