How do I unmerge my husband's phone from mine since the last update?

My husband and I use  my iCloud account on our iPhones, but since the last update the messages are merged. How do I unmerge them? I am now getting copied on the texts getting sent to his phone and if I text him it shows up on my phone.

To fix this go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
Either uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on all of your devices (the easiest solution); or
If you want to continue to receive iMessages at this email address on one of your phones, on the other one tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using a different Apple ID (so both phones are using a different Apple ID for iMessage).  Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores.  It does not need to be the same as the ID you are using for iMessage, FaceTime and other services.

  • My phone wont ring since the last update.  It will only vibrate.

    Every since I have done the last update my phone will not ring.  It will only vibrate.  I have tried changing it in sounds and it still not ring, the volume it turned all the way up.

    Have you checked the Mute switch along the edge, near the external volume controls?

  • Since the last update my i tunes wont launch it just give error message Error 7 (Windows error 127) how do i fix it please?

    Since the last update my i tunes wont launch it just give error message Error 7 (Windows error 127) how do i fix it please?

    Like many others I have been reading about online I am having the same error.  I tried the fix listed above and simply wasted 30 minutes of my time. I scheduled a time for Apple to call and help me through this and their solution was for me to call Microsoft for some reason?!!  iTunes made me upgrade then stopped working - I really don't see how this is a Microsoft problem??
    Like Darren if a solution is not found quickly I will also have to sell my phone as the only way to get videos and music on my phone is through the software that you made me upgrade, broke and won't help me fix.

    just go to BlackBerry World, and update all your apps including BBM.

    you can turn off the magnifying glass :

    you can deactivate the "reset to Hub view" :

  • Is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

    is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

    Here's the problems I'm having with iPad 2 and iOS 5.1:
    Okay ... so, because I had less than a 1 Gig left (as reported by iTunes) on my 64Gig iPad, and the majority of the space was being used by "Photos" ... I decided to not keep my PC photos directory in sync with my iPad (Windows 7). So, in iTunes, I unchecked the option to sync computer photos to the iPad. I got the standard popup warning message that my iPad would not contain those albums after the next sync. I clicked OK and proceeded to sync expecting to have lots of space freed up.
    But weird things happened after syncing.
    (1) I still have all my photos on my iPad .... nothing disappeared at all. (And performed multiple syncs to try to force the change ... still nothing has been removed from my iPad.)
    (2) Somehow, I gained 20 Gigs of free space, as reported by both iTunes and my iPad as well.
    Anyone know what's going on here?
    I do have iMovie and another movie making app, Avid. Both of these contain projects that refer to photos in albums that were supposed to be removed after the sync ... but I can't imagine that would keep them there. Anyone have any ideas?
    I also installed the iPad app, iPhoto. I noticed that it build a directory listing and continuously want to update that listing from time to time.
    Would any of these things cause the iTunes photo sync changes to be ignored? And, how did I get free space to report back with an additional 19Gig or so, when there's no change at all.
    Unsure what's going on ...

  • Since the last update, every time I open "Numbers" I get a notice that a font is missing.  How can I stop seeing this warning?

    Since the last update for "numbers", everytime I open numbers I get a notice that a font is missing.  I don't care that it's missing and I would like to not see that message.  How can I get rid of it?

    A document you had open at the time you quit Numbers has a font that you do not have (probably Calibri).  You can change the font to one you have OR close the file before you quit Numbers.  Numbers will open files you had open when you quit.
    Looks like:
    The other thing you can do is check the box "Close windows when quitting an application" in "System Preferences > General"

  • HT4623 since the last update download on my iphone, unable to view emails, how to fix?

    unable to view emails since the last updated download on my iphone 4,how to fix?

    What exactly do you mean by "unable to view?" Does the Mail app quit? Regardless, try a reset:
    Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.

  • Since the last update for my Iphone 4s i dont get text messages when connected to wifi. my wife is getting them. Imessage is switched off on both phones.

    since the 6. version update. of my Iphone 4s My wife was getting my text messages. I found the problem was caused by Imessage when connected to Wifi. I deactivated Imessage on both phones to solve the problem. I now have updated my Iphone to 6.1.1 and i dont get text messages anymore. I have Imessage deactivated on my phone but my wife is getting my text messages again. my wifes phone was not updated to 6.1.1 because the last update lost all her contacts from her phone and we had to but them back in one by one from the outlook list. Her contact are listed in outlook on a seperate list to mine but we can only get my contacts download to her phone. We use the same laptop to sysc phones.
    My Iphone does not download photos to My Pictures anymore. I have to copy them across to a folder. I cant find where it backs them up to.
    I have lost all confidence in Apple now as i was forced to update to 6.1.1 because of 3G reception issues and not reciving calls and now back to spending several hours trying to fix my phone to recieve a basic text message.

    Are you and your wife sharing apple id?
    If you are that is the reason why she is seeing your imessage.
    On both phone go to settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell is the default.
    You will have to uncheck or remove the apple id.

  • Since the last update my phone won't vibrate. all settings are correct?

    Since I last updated my phone the vibrate function will not work. Can anyone help me?

    Is vibrate turned on?
    Basic troubleshooting from the Users Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Since the last update my phone constantly switches to speaker.

    Since the iOS7 update, my phone has some new annoying problems.  The phone keeps switching mid-call to the speaker.  Along with this, since the update, the other person cannot hear me when my phone switches to speaker mode (I can still hear them).  It also occasionally switches to facetime (mid-call).  I have heard numerous people complain of this, but never heard any solutions.  I have done the hard reset on my phone a couple of times and this has not helped.  Help!!!

    Back up and restore via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a new device and test. If the problem is solved, there is some kind of corruption in your backup file. If it continues, take it to an Apple store for evaluation of a possible hardware problem.

  • How do I revert OS X back to a time before the last update on 28th June?

    Hi.
    Last Tuesday, 28th June, I authorised Mac Update to update two things. One was something to do with my Epson printer, and the other was some sort of security update for Mac OS X itself. The update, presumably the latter part, invoked a requirement to restart my Mac.
    Since then things have not been good.
    I have noticed that the fans in my MacBook Pro are on more or less continuously, even when it is asleep. Prior to last Tuesday they hardly ever ran, even when I was using it. (According to iStat my CPU is currently 76 degrees C, and both fans are running at about 6000 rpm.)
    When I try to quit Safari it doesn't quit straight away as it used to. Instead I get the spinning ball for a while and then, after it quits I get a 'Safari quit unexpectedly' report, even though it was I who initiated the quitting...
    Several apps have been acting oddly too, such as MS Word taking ages to launch.
    So I want to revert my MacBook Pro to how it was prior to this last update. I have Time Machine enabled, but I can't work out how to get the actual OS back to a state it was on a date prior to 28th June. The OS isn't in the Apps folder, and I can't work out where it might be.
    Can someone please point me in the right direction, or is this something that Time Machine cannot do?

  • How do I unlink my husband's Macbook from mine?

    My husband and I each have a Macbook pro. We have been using the same Apple ID. We recently upgraded to Mavericks, and now his Safari is linked to mine. When I delete a bookmark in my Safari, for example, it deletes on his Safari as well as mine. I thought that maybe he could create a new user, but that just gives him a clean slate, and he loses all of his bookmarks. The second thing I tried was to add an AppleID to my profile on his computer, but that did not work. Is there anyway to unlink? Can he build his user profile upon mine? He's now signed up for his own AppleID BTW.
    Thanks!

    One of you needs to create a new Apple ID. Then that person needs to go to iCloud in System Preferences and remove the account you are sharing and add their new account.

  • How do I sync playlists to iphone 4s from itunes with the new update

    how do I add my top 25 playlist to my iphone I updated my itunes and now my playlists are not on my iphone. the only playlist that show now are the ones I made and i tried to select and sync the lists but their still not showing on my iphone.

    I think that if you sync the iPhone the top 25 playlist would be updated and placed back to your iTunes library.

  • HT1386 My I phone used to play music that I had downloaded from Cds to my computer, but since the last update,my phone only plays songs that I bought on itunes.  It still shows I have all my old music but won't play any of it.  What's going on?

    Ok, so I synched my iphone 4 to my computer recently and now when I go to play music on my phone, only the songs I've bought on Itunes play.  I put all of my music collection that is in CD form on my computer and it used to play on my phone too, but now it just skips those songs.  They still play on my computer though.  I've been trying to figure out what the problem is for over three days or so and am about to loose my friggin mind! Can anyone help me? 

    De-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.
