I have this message on my iPhone & for several days I cannot get my number to associate with my phone. About a month ago I swapped networks & got a temporary number for a few hours whilst my old number ported over. It pitted fine & I receive texts & calls on this number. This is the number on my Apple ID.
For Messages, choose Messages > Settings, then click iMessage. For FaceTime, choose FaceTime > Preferences, then click General. Turn your phone number on or off: To turn on your phone number, select it and your Apple ID in the list.
I've spent ages trying a variety of remedies for exactly this issue: switch the phone off and on, take the SIM in and out, send an SMS, contact network provider, stand with one leg in a bucket of tepid water, and all possible permutations of these.
Thank you so much, I have spent way too much time on this not knowing who to call I called my new provider and she said everything went good on her end so that was not very helpful she had no recommendations. And as the days counted down I became more concerned and all I had to do was exactly what you did. Thank you for sharing.
My iPhone is both a trusted device and a trusted phone number but I also have a second trusted phone number. If your phone is the only trusted device and trusted phone number and it is lost, recovery is not simple.
My memory is probably wrong but I think it defaulted my phone to being a trusted phone number (as well as a trusted device). I do know that it will allow the phone to be the one and only trusted phone number, which is something I don't think it should allow.
by default it uses the number associated with the device for the trusted number and Lawrence is correct. You need to have a additional trusted number because if you lose access to the original and don't have a additional trusted number there is no way to receive verification codes. ALWAYS HAVE TWO TRUSTED NUMBERS VERIFIED ON YOUR ACCOUNT
I have no longer a paid developer account and after upgrading to iPhone 8+ I tried to install my app and XCODE posts the following error: " Code Signing Error: Your development team has reached the maximum number of registered iPhone devices."
You can't get there from here because (a) you can't access the required section in the Member Center without a paid acccount, and (b) dev support is predicated on having a paid account as well (and there wouldn't be much point to a limit if you could just send an email to have it lifted...).
Best to pony up and renew your paid account, or... create another apple ID you can throw at using free provisioning instead, I think, but it's not clear if your devices will be sniffed out as part of that process or not.
See this thread [how i can have free Developer Program ] with an already moderated link that explains Xcode's free provisioning process (with screenshots) - be sure to read all the way thru it and any updates at the bottom. Good luck.
Any updates? I had a paid account many years ago. i just tried using the same account (now free account) to sideload apps to my personal device for testing and im getting the same error. Contacted Apple to see if they could assist.
PROBLEM: When I returned, I deactivated that plan, and removed the SIM card from the phone. However, the iPhone retained the incorrect phone number formatting on the dialpad screen. See screenshot below for example:
This might seem like a frivolous detail, but it actually slows me down when dialing numbers "manually" since it always looks like I've entered the number incorrectly, skipped a digit or added an extra one, etc. I just want to get it back to the correct format.
I had this exact same issue. I tried all the things the original poster did above too. I even tried Apple support to no avail. After reading a similar article ( ), I think the common thread is the eSIM.
I called T-Mobile and after troubleshooting and trying a few other options, I had them delete/reissue my eSIM. It took a while for them to do this, but it resolved the issue! Hopefully this will help someone else.
Safari on iPhone automatically creates links for strings of digits that appear to the telephone numbers. I am writing a web page containing an IP address, and Safari is turning that into a phone number link. Is it possible to disable this behavior for a whole page or an element on a page?
I have tested this myself and found that it works although it is certainly not an elegant solution. Inserting an empty span in the phone number will prevent the data detectors from turning it into a link.
A trick I use that works on more than just Mobile Safari is to use HTML escape codes and a little mark-up in the phone number. This makes it more difficult for the browser to "identify" a phone number, i.e.
Adding the meta tag to turn off format detection did not work for me. I was trying to display a zoom meeting ID in a tag along with other text and iOS was turning that ID into a tel link. Additionally, I was targeting tel links via a[href^="tel:"] in order to give them custom styling so disabling the styles on tel links was not an option.
I was really confused by this for a while but finally figured it out. We made updates to our site and had some numbers converting to a link and some weren't. Turns out that numbers won't be converted to a link if they're in a . Obviously not the right solution for most circumstances, but in some it will be the right one.
@Kykkoray76 it has nothing to do with send and receive with iMessage. The device takes the information from the sim and the problem is setting up iMessage with the number on the sim before a number is ported across from a different network and iMessage latches on to the original number on the SIM card and to change this you turn off iMessage and FaceTime restart the device check your number and then set up iMessage and FaceTime again.
I am seeking assisting in finding my old Iphone serial # so I can supply it as part of a class action suit. I no longer have the phone nor do I have records of the purchase, which was through Rogers. Can someone assist me please?
Why do u even need the serial number? according to what I read, you likely do NOT need the serial number to submit a claim, if you have a device lying around you can enter the SN and it will tell you if its eligible but it is not a requirement during the claim submission process
True. However, one of the iOS updates was specifically designed to lower your battery life, not just the charge. Apple wanted to make sure its customers had options: 1. To give them more money through servicing and 2. To give them more money by buying new phones. The lawsuit has been settled, so they were clearly at fault.
We report this to police, and are working on checking each of our bank , credit account and also checking credit report, it looks like someone is inquire credit line from Palpal on the day our phone number got loss.... We are reaching out to PayPal now, and hopefully, the fraud will be stop !
For Xifinty, we called your fraud department, however, I am sorry to say, it's really not much help , as they even don't know someone is calling to transfer the phone number to their device. looks like they even cannot see that in the system at their end.
If you aren't sure of the phone number of an iPhone you're using, there's no need to stress. There are several ways to figure out the phone number. You could, for example, call someone and see what number comes up.
As the primary representative for their development team, the Account Holder is responsible for the membership and has full access to all related tools, resources, and benefits. Two-factor authentication provides an additional level of security for these accounts.
A trusted phone number can be used to receive verification codes by text message or automated phone call. You must verify at least one trusted phone number to enroll in two-factor authentication. This can be any type of phone number you use.
Two-factor authentication is built directly into iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, and Apple websites. It supports several methods to trust devices and deliver verification codes, and offers a more streamlined user experience.
You can enable two-factor authentication on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 9 and later, or a Mac with OS X El Capitan and later. If you create an Apple ID on the web, two-factor authentication will automatically be enabled on your account regardless of the device or OS you use.
When possible, you should use a trusted device to increase security and streamline the process. You can use the same trusted device for multiple Apple IDs that have two-factor authentication turned on. If you don't have access to your trusted device, you can get your verification code via SMS or phone call.
Yes. You can manage your trusted phone numbers, trusted devices, and other account information on your Apple ID account page. You can also manage your trusted phone numbers in the Apple ID security setting on your trusted devices.
You can request account recovery to regain access to your account. Account recovery might take a few days or longer, depending on the specific account information you can provide to verify your identity.
If you previously enabled two-step verification with a recovery key on your account and you sign in on a device running iOS 11 or macOS High Sierra, your Apple ID is automatically updated to two-factor authentication. After your account is updated, you have the option to generate a new recovery key. This option is only available if you are updating an account from two-step verification to two-factor authentication. Learn how to create a recovery key.
