Greetings-
I have full use of iMessages on my iPhone (can send and receive to/from anyone) but cannot receive any on my wifi iPad unless they are in my contacts or Apple users(?). Apple Tech Support was clueless or wait times on a phone are infinite (nobody at home?) Any ideas?
 
so on your phone they can SMS text you at your phone number. as well as real imessages to your apple id.

since your ipad only has apple id and not a phone number its probably related somehow to that.

but just a guess.. not an apple expert.

Thank you. My iPad does have my phone number, in addition to apple id.
 
Thanks Maximus- so many settings for everything! Missed that one. One would think Apple Tech Support would know that.
