Imessage not sending through my phone number?

Mine is not working either. I can only send through my email. In the settings > messages> receive at> my "phone" line is grayed out and will not allow me to select it as an option... Any help?

I have the same issues as well, How can I correct this, my phone number is greyed out as well.

UGH same issue here, i cannot click on my phone number only apple id.

I've tried everything! My number is greyed out:( so frustrating

My daughter has same problem. She does not receive messages to her phonenumber from me after iOS 6 update? Her iMessages to me now comes from her email. Please help.

She restarted her iPhone. The number is now ticked, and she receives iMessages sent to the number. But the messages sent in the "off"-period were never received, not even as text messages!

Restart your iphone holding both buttons down (top and bottom) - it worked for me as my number had turned gray as well.

Good luck

This is the only thing that fixed it I was so stumped! Thank you, I had previously tried just a standard restart , also signing in and out of imessage and apple id several times.... but the hard power down is the only thing that fixed the problem. HighFive😍

1. AFTER HARD RESET (PRESSIN THE TOP AND LOWER BUTTONS AS SAME TIME)
2. POWER ON
3. AND APPLE IMESSAGE WINDOW WILL POP UP AND ASK IF YOU WANT TO USE YOUR EMAIL WITH YOUR IMESSAGE, IT WILL ASK FOR YOUR APPLE ID.....
4. SELECT CANCEL!!! DO NOT PUT YOUR PASSWORD IN BECAUSE IT WILL THEN SET YOU UP FOR EMAIL TO BE USED FOR YOUR IMESSAGE, IF YOU CANCEL THAT WINDOW, IT WILL ONLY USE YOUR PHONE NUMBER, AND WHEN YOU ARE NOT AVAIL FOR IMESSAGE IT WILL SEND THE MSG VIA TEXT INSTEAD OF IMSG OR EMAIL...THIS IS THE BEST SOLUTION AND SINCE I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEM GETTING OR RECIEVING IMESSAGE

Good Luck! Happy iPhoning 😎
