I can't add the phone number to iMessages on my desktop

I get messages from people on my phone also used to appear on the iMessages on my desk and I see now that I can choose only add e-mail addresses to iMessages on my desktop. Is it possible to add phone numbers? I used to be able to do and now it is missing and I get a LOT of messages on my phone number.

Hello

On the iPhone, make sure that the Send and Receive messages indicates the active phone number.

Make sure that the iPhone and Macs use the same Apple ID and that they are marked Active.

Try logging (Sign Out) of the Apple ID on the iPhone and then wait a few minutes before adding it back.

This should trigger the pop ups on the Mac to accept that the Mac is aware of the iPhone number (again).

    ICloud Keychain how can I change the phone number needed to verify the code text for me? The number it was sent is an old phone number of my friends that I do not have access to the.

    Try this from another thread I saw.

    On iOS, go to settings > iCloud > keychain and tap button to disable iCloud keychain. (you will be asked to delete or keep the passwords on device) I chose to delete...

    Then turn it back on, and pop - up chose reset iCloud trousseau, on a chosen pop-up confirmation reset

    In the new window pop up use iPhone password like iCloud cryptogram? has chosen the use code

    Enter your secret code (4 digits) then choose country and your new phone number

    Although, to "Restore the iCloud Keychain," I took to erase the data and essentially set up a new keychain.  Not the case.  Strangely, after essentially bypassing the security system, setting a new password and verification number, I see my cards, passwords and other data have been restored.  Maybe it's all the iCloud account and this master password.  Or maybe it's a bug.  With Apple, we'll never know.

    Your phone number come from your SIM, and when you open a session and activate FaceTime. It should appear automatically.

  • How can I get the phone number for the Activation of Microsoft Center in Washington State?

    I can't use the normal process to obtain the phone number for the product activation because Windows 7 says "Windows is activated". How can I contact an Activation Center to get this problem fixed. Apparently, it is not enabled because I can't use Microsoft Help and support center. HD & S centre will not accept my product ID. I used the Windows Anytime Upgrade process for Windows 7 Edition Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional. After the installation process, I activated Windows and it works beautifully.

    I am trying to establish the Windows XP Mode in Windows Virtual Machine and have hit a wall. I downloaded the three pieces but keep being told to download it again when I click on Windows XP Mode in the start menu.

    I tried to get the Support of Microsoft but get stopped on step 2 when the Microsoft operating systems will not accept my product ID of Windows 7.

    1. click on start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
    2. press enter on your keyboard
    3. Select your country.
    4. Select the telephone activation option and brace yourself for a real person.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not dial the phone number of the browser

    I "upgraded" to the OS 6.0.  Now my BB does not allow me to click on a phone number I see on the internet and dial.  I have to read the number, memorize, close the browser and manually push in numbers.  UGG...   It's rotten.  Any suggestions?  T-Mobile continues to tell me it is the Web page I'm on, but he is clearly not that.  OS 6.0 is quite the downgrade.  If someone can hear the ugly notifers they call ringtones?  The assistance service directs you to buy ringtones of appworld.  What a pot!  Sell a phone that you can't hear the ringtone.

    I solved the problem by getting BlackBerry.  Now, I'm fully functional on a new Android phone.  Good luck.
