IPhone 5 :: IMessages Not Working With Changed Apple Account
Dec 7, 2014
I was sharing a single apple account with my husband. I decided to get my own apple account when I changed phone carriers.However, iMessages doesn't work now, and the phone number is greyed out and can't be selected. How can I make iMessages work?
I recently lost my iPhone 3GS, and I'm now using a 3G that I found on ebay. As it turns out, I can't receive iMessages from iPhones which I used to iMessage with. This means I can't receive texts at all from these numbers.
I have a work Apple ID and a personal Apple ID. I don't take my work iPad home, but co-workers need to send me messages after I've left for the day. Can I set up my work Apple ID on my iPhone? When I try to add it, it says it's already in use.
I'm successfully sending and receiving iMessages however recipients are saying that they are coming from my Apple ID rather then my phone number. Is there are way to coprrect this?
So this question is actually about my friends iPhone 4... She and I text on a daily basis and we use iMessages. As of two days ago, every time I sent her an iMessage, it would fail and I would have to send it as a text message. Well we finally figured out it was because her iMessages were turned off (probably by her 2 year old daughter.) So she turned them back on and she sent me an imessage. But when she sent the imessage and I received it, I received the message from her apple id, not her phone number which is what I normally receive her messages from. Her and I can't figure out how to change it back to her phone number..
This is my first post so I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong section. My girlfriend has an iphone 4s and an ipad2. Her appleid password has recently been changed without her authorization. Even her security questions have been altered so her original answers are rejected. She's tried using iforgot and the appleid support website but since her info has changed she doesn't receive an email from said site. She called apple support and the tech told her that she would need to pay for support ($69.99) over the phone since it's been 90 days from when she purchased both products.
I changed my Apple ID a few days ago as required and answered the security questions. I am able to access my iCloud account, but cannot access the App Store from my iPhone 4S. I get a message that my password is incorrect.
I have struggled over this for days. I recently lost the internet provider on my old internet account which was my old Apple ID. I successfully changed my Apple ID in ITunes to a new permanent email address. I cannot change the settings on the App store or ICloud. The suggested solutions for this problem have not worked for me because there is no option for changing the old Apple ID. When you tap on it, it does not change. I have tried signing in with the Old Apple ID (the old email account) and it doesn't work either. I have synced my phone (and lost my contacts in the process but that was an entirely different headache!) to no avail.
Some of the solutions stated that I should go to the store and tap on the Apple ID and it would allow me to change...no such luck. Also when I tried Iforgot, it would only let me change my password which is not really any help because the problem is the Apple Id.
Yesterday I changed my Apple ID Password. Since then when I try to make a FaceTime Audio call from my iPad or my iMac it get a Call Failed Using iPhone message. Â
My iPad sees my iPhone as far as using the Hotspot and FaceTime has my phone number listed as the one to use. Â
how to make them available on my laptop? I can see them all in the music (or tones) library but there is an exclamation point by all of the ones I didn't purchase on the phone with iTunes.
my imessages on my iphone 4 isnt working , I'm connected to wifi, and texting someone with an iphone 4 like mine , and it worked before .. but all of a sudden it stopped working..
My best friend and I both have iPhone 4s' and have been using iMessage since we got the phones back in December with no problems. Last Wednesday, we updated our iPhones to the newest iOS 5.1 update. The following day, she had turned her phone off because her wifi was acting up and wouldn't send her iMessages. She fell asleep before turning her phone back on. When i sent her a text, it was saying "sent as text message" under the couple texts I had sent her. When she woke up and turned her phone back on, iMessage wouldn't work and continued to send as texts. The next day she found that if we turn our "send as SMS" off, iMessage started working again. The same thing happened again last night and we tried the "send as SMS" thing again and it's still not working. We have tried everything and can't figure out how to get iMessage working for us again. This problem didn't ever occur until iOS 5.1 update
My iMessages stopped working. I tried to turn off iMessages and back on, then tried to activate with my email address and when I try to sign in with apple id it goes to the screen where it shows the email address, and when I hit next it displays "verifying" and then goes back to the sign in page. I am currently not in range for cellular signal but I am on wifi. Shouldn't I be able to sign in with just my email address, as now it does not display my phone # because I do not have a cellular signal?
I have an iphone 5, my fiance has an iphone 4. Our imessages to each other aren't working. I can get them and send them to other people on my contact list and so can he. I am up to date with software and he says he is too but we can't communicate via imessage. This has been happening for several days now. I have tried signing out and back in, turning the phone off and back on, and have tried other troubleshooting issues I have seen online but nothing is working. We can call each other and Facetime but can't imessage ....
I keep getting a prompt on my LG G3 saying "Authentication Required. Password has been changed". My password has NOT been changed. My emails are not updating and it will not let me manually update either. when I do that I get this authentication message again.
I called Sprint to change my address and phone number, and my iPhone 4s stopped being able to place or receive calls. I now just get "We could not complete your call.Sprint is clueless, and I don't think it's the phone - wifi works, the phone is fine as far as I can tell, I can call *2, but no other number.
