How to set up Voicemail on iPhone 4s?
I have an iphone 4s and only noticed recently that none of my calls go through to voicemail - it rings constantly until the caller hangs up.
I have gone through the set up of my greeting and PIN but it's all pointless when none of my calls actually go through to voicemail.
I have checked forums and they all seem to suggest calling my own number and then I will be given the option to set it up - however when I call my own number I get a busy tone obviously!
Can anyone help? I assume I need to store a certain number in my phone somewhere in order to actually have the voicemail option?
Well I would act real casual, invite Voice mail for a meal or something and the other party you want to set Voice mail up with… And hope for chemistry if they get along make an excuse and leave.
Or my B answer is
"Call Diverts" (or aka Call Forward ) as in "Call Settings"
VOICE MAIL after either 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 seconds (Just those 6 time intervals can be set )
[Normally eg set to 10 seconds the call is then routed to Voice Mail. Not in you case ]
You can't amend it to another value you have to cancel it and then SET TO ANOTHER VALUE eg If it were set to 10 seconds you could not amend to 15 seconds you cancel it only then when you set it will those 6 time interval swill appear
So start again "CANCEL ALL" VOICE CALL.
Activate each for the length on time, if you leave it cancelled it will NEVER ever go to VM
So eg setting for "IF NOT ANSWERED" set for 30 second max then DIVERT TO VOICE MAIL
and for the other options if busy etc
30 second is max for all Networks (GSM code)
You are diverting the call after X time to voice mail (or you set it to another number… You'll see)
"However when I call my own number I get a busy tone obviously!"
Were you really busy or?
But seriously you have to go to your network and ask them for the VM number, it is usually just 2 or 3 digits, and that's how you pick up your voice mail, or some phones pre touch screen a long press on key which has a tape cassette symbol dials VM
I do not own any apple products but all the phone I have are as above… So there.
- Why is my voicemail taking so long to set up? I was wondering why I never get voicemails and then I look and I haven't set up a voicemail yet and when I press set up voicemail it asked if I want a default or custom voicemail and I pick default and it says setting up voicemail but it never actually sets up and then it goes back to the set up voicemail as an option again. And I have an iPhone 5 iOS 7 why is it taking so long?
- I bought my daughter an iphone 5c.Do i set up the Apple id/password first, or buy the plan, then set it up? I have bought Iphones before. But i didn't set them up. Do i by the plan, usually $40.00 first, then do the Apple id/password? Or vice versa?
