How to have iMessages show up on one device but not the other?

So I have an iPhone, a MacBook and an iPad that I own and use, this year my school "gave" (we pay for it but it belongs to the school and have to give it back, go private education!) each student an iPad so now i have one from them as well. I use a different Apple ID for my school iPad than I do for my personal devices so that information from my personal devices doesn't end up on the schools iPad which has a massive amount of spyware on it so they can literally see everything we do. I have it set up for iMessage so my 3 personal devices are all synced and use my phone number from my iphone to iMessage, but my school iPad only uses the email from the Apple ID I made specifically for that iPad. I was wondering if there was a way that the iMessages I receive on my school iPad (via the email) can also be received on my other personal devices, but NONE of the messages or other data received on my phone (via my phone number) also be received on the school iPad. So in essence a sort of one way channel. Thanks in advance!
P.S.- I don't just use the messages to text my friends I use it for professional purposes also as I am on the executive board of several charities and also a high ranking member of my fathers company.

No, the scenario you describe is not possible. Sorry.

  • Why is home sharing showing up on one computer but not the other?

    My homesharing is showing up on one computer but not the other! They are both under the same account and both iTunes are up to date. Unfortunatally, of course its showing up on the computer that I dont need it on. Please help me! Thanks!

    It could be a firewall issue. Try disabling the firewall and see if that helps.

  • TS2972 Homesharing shows up on one computer but not the other one.

    Homeshare shows up on my desktop but not my laptop. I can acces the laptop library from the desktop fine but the desktop does not even show up on the laptop. Both iTunes versions are the most current. I have tried turning Homeshare off and back on and closing and reopening iTunes. No luck. I have checked firewall settings. Desktop has windows vista and laptop windows 7. Any suggestions?

    EDIT:
    After turning homesharing on and off, closing and reopening iTunes, and waiting, it finally connected. Oddly there are two libraries showing up. Anyway, problem solved for me! If only I could delete this question now, haha.

  • Need to stop photostream on one device but not the other. Which one?

    Here is my problem.  I have photostream activated on my iPhone, iPad, and my Mac (iPhoto).  I take 95% of my photos on my iPhone, but I often like to look at them on the larger screen on my iPad. So I like it that the iPhone photos sync to my iPad through photostream.  However, all of the photos I've taken on my iPhone are there twice; once in the main folder and once in photostream.  I now barely have any free space on my iPhone and I think it is affecting the device's performance (more apps don't open or crash now than ever before, it's processing commands slower). In iTunes it shows barely any free space remaining on the device.  What I'd like to do is to in essence stop duplicating all the photos on my iPhone but keep the iPhone photos flowing to my iPad through photostream.  Can I do this?  Is it as easy as going to Settings and turning off photostream on one of the two devices?  If so, which one?  (If this works, I realize I may have to manually delete the 1000 photos that are currently on my iPhone.  I also would not get any of my iPad photos on my iPhone, but that's okay for now.)  Or, is there "do keep duplicate photo" switch somewhere? I appreciate the advice.  Just don't want to flip the wrong switch.
    For storage purposes, I'm not totally committed to iCloud yet.  I store all my photos in iPhoto on my Mac where I can back them up on disk and hard drive, so I still regularly sync both devices to my Mac through iTunes.

    Photos in albums that you create from the camera roll don't contain duplicates, but only links to the original photos.  However, photos in the my photo stream album are duplicates (although they are "device optimized" copies of the original).  If you want to continue to use photo stream without this happening, you can either import the originals from the camera roll and delete them from your phone, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083; or, save the photo stream photos on your iPad to the camera roll (by tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then delete them from the photo stream album on either device.  (Deleting photo stream photos on either device will delete them from the other.)
    If you choose to delete the photo stream photos, you can tap Edit, tap the photos, then tap Delete.
    Also, keep in mind that photo stream will only keep a rolling collection of up to 1000 photos on your devices, so as you add additional photos, older ones will be removed.

  • Homesharing library shows up on one computer but not the other

    So tonight I just connected my two computers, a Windows Vista and a Windows 7, with homesharing.  Although it worked at first, I turned off the computers, then returned to them, wanting to homeshare again.  I noticed the Vista connected but the 7 did not.  Instead, it kept saying on the top bar "Checking [username]'s library for new purchases".  If I click on the libary's name in the left panel, it disappears.  I went to Advanced settings; the view of shared libraries was checked on; I turned the view of the library off then back on, then returned to the left panel.  I was able to click on it but the list was simply empty and it just said it was loading.  It has been saying that for the past ten minutes. I've tried many different solutions but nothing has helped so far.
    Sharing is on, checked, viewable, but nothing happens.
    Tried turning Homesharing off and closing iTunes on both computers.
    Tried resetting the wireless router.
    If there's any other suggestions, please explain them clearly so even a noob like me would understand. ^_^;  Thanks!

  • "No connectivity with the server" error for one document but not the other, in the same document library

    We have a number of users all of a sudden getting "No connectivity with the server.  The file 'xxx' can't be opened because the server couldn't be contacted." errors trying to open MS Office docs (Word, Excel, etc.) in SharePoint with IE,
    just by clicking the link and selecting the "Read Only" option.  If they select the "Check Out and Edit" option, they can open the document no problem.  One of my customers gets the error on one document but not the other, in
    the same document library!  The older document (a weekly report) was copied and renamed as per standard procedure.  She can read the older document, but not the new one.
    It is definitely a profile issue, as other people have logged onto the machines of the users with problems and do not get the error.  We have also renamed people's c:\user profile folders and the corresponding Profilelist registry entry and the newly
    created profile does not experience the error for these people.  Renaming the profile back restores all their personal settings but the error reappears.  When we copied the old profile's folder structure into the new profile, many of the user settings
    were restored (but not all, like Dreamweaver settings) but the error did not appear.  We think that the system folders files (like AppData) weren't totally copied over so we're going to run another test using xcopy.  We are rebooting between
    logons to make sure all files are unlocked.
    The laptops and computers are mainly 32bit, Win7 Enterprise running IE9 and Office 2010 Professional Plus, but there's a few 64bit machines as well. The SharePoint farm has 1 WFE, 1 App Server running search and CA, and a shared database server running SQL
    2005 SP4.  SharePoint is 64bit MOSS 2007 with the latest CU.
    We've checked the logs on the client as well as on the server and there aren't any helpful entries.  We've also run Process Monitor, also with no helpful entries.  We're planning to run something like Fiddler next.
    It's not everyone, because there are many people are accessing the SharePoint system and the same files.  It is also not a permission thing, as we've tested by giving the users elevated permissions with no changes.  One person experiencing
    the errors is a Site Collection Admin.  That same person ran a test where I coped a simple Excel file into a Document Library which contained a problem file.  They were able to open it Read Only no problems that day, but the next day, the same
    file gave them an error.   In their case, they usually get a "xxx is not checked out" error and only occasionally get the "No connectivity with the server" error.
    We've tried lots of things including:
    Deleting IE cache
    Deleting SharePoint Drafts and webcache folder contents
    Running IE without add-ons
    Upgrading and Downgrading IE
    Uninstalling and re-installing IE
    Reinstalling our SSL certs
    Repairing Office
    Removing and then adding back in the Microsoft Office "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support" Office Tool 
    Deleting all HKLM and HKLU Office registry settings
    Toggling IE Compatibility Settings
    Toggling the IE Automatic Logon option
    Toggling the location of checked out files
    Adding the site in the trusted sites list
    Adding the site to the WebClient\Parameters registry locations
    Making sure the WebClient service is started
    Rebooting the machine (lol :)
    This is becoming a serious issue, not just because of the inconvenience for the users having to check out every document they want to read, but we have some files with macros that open up other documents to run which are now failing.  There aren't
    "check out" workarounds for some of those macros.
    We're planning to open a ticket with Microsoft, but I'm throwing it out here first in case someone has run into this before, or may have some suggestions on what to try next.  Thanks!
    -Richard.
    PS  I think this needs to be in the "General" forum instead?

    It took three days of dedicated troubleshooting, but I have found the cause of the errors, and a couple of fixes.  It helped tremendously that my own machine was throwing the error.  I have scheduled a couple of users to work with me to test the
    various fixes, to see which one works best, so the story isn't over yet.
    I had backed up my c:\users profile folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList registry key so I could restore my profile after I was done.  I made a copy of the profile folder and was using that for awhile,
    but then made another copy where I had deleted a lot of content out of it so that the copies would go faster.  Since a newly created profile did not have errors, I was trying to copy back as much of the profile as possible to make it easier for our users
    to get back to work.  Instead of blowing away their profile and starting from scratch (which we know worked) I wanted to narrow down what was causing the error and just skip that from the restore.  The concept was to keep as much as the users profile
    in tact (application settings, etc.) not just restoring their desktop and My Documents folders.
    When we first tested a few weeks ago, simply copying the folder contents didn't reproduce the error.  I then tried xcopy, but got the "can't read file" error.  Then I tried robocopy, and ran into the "junction" problem. 
    I went back to xcopy, and found that placing the excludes.txt file in the windows/system32 folder eliminated the error.
    So the process went as follows: 
    Reboot and log into the machine as another user
    Delete the profile and associated registry key
    Reboot and log into the machine as the affected user, creating a new profile, and there is no error
    Reboot and log in as the other user
    xcopy the contents of the skinned-down backed-up profile to the newly created profile
    Reboot and log in as the affected user, and the error occurs
    Repeat the above, but add items in the excludes.txt file to see what, when eliminated, causes the error not to appear in the last step
    I eventually found that skipping the c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\Microsoft\office\14.0 folder allowed the entire profile to be copied over without the error occurring.  That was strange, because we've cleaned out the cache folders
    before which didn't fix the issue. 
    So I went about it the opposite way, and tried to delete the 14.0 folder from the restored profile, and after reboot, the error still occurred.
    What eventually worked was deleting the 14.0 folder and copying over a 14.0 folder from a newly created profile!
    One way to do this was to:
    Reboot and log in as another user
    Rename the c:\users profile folder
    Rename the appropriate [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] registry key
    Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
    Reboot and log in as the other user
    Copy the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder to the other user's desktop
    Delete new profile folder, and rename the backup to be the production folder
    Delete the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder and then paste the 14.0 copy from the desktop
    Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
    We've tried this on a couple machines and it works.  I had to run Windows Explorer as Administrator to access the other profile's folders.
    We've also successfully copied a 14.0 folder created by one profile on one affected computer over another profile's folder on another computer, eliminating the error, so we're trying that first, as that is fewer steps.
    We may attempt to script this, but the self-help instructions are only 5 lines long:
    Reboot and log into the affected computer with another account
    Go to <link to location of 14.0 folder on network> and copy the 14.0 folder
    Run Windows Explorer as Administrator
    Go to c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\microsoft\office and delete the 14.0 folder, and paste the copied 14.0 folder (trying to overwrite it makes Win7 want to merge the folders)
    Reboot and log into your normal account, and confirm the error is gone
    I'll come back and report after we go into the field with this fix, but after the few tests, I am cautiously optimistic that this is it.

  • "printer is offline" appears on one computer but not the other (both windows 7)

    printer is offline" appears on one computer but not the other (both windows 7)

    This is pretty common to see when your firewall kicks in and blocks certain communication paths the printer takes.
    Here's a list of ports and programs that when allowed through the firewall, will restore communiction.
    Ports to open:
    UDP ports: 427, 161, 139
    TCP ports: 9200, 9220, 9290, 9500
    Programs to allow:
    hpiscnapp.exe
    hpoews01.exe
    hpofxm08.exe
    hposfx08.exe
    hposid01.exe
    hpqkygrp.exe
    hpqste08.exe
    hpqtra08.exe
    hpznui01.exe
    hpzwiz01.exe
    SLP_Service (also known as UDP 427)
    Have your security software provider walk you through allowing these items through your firewall.
    If this does not fix your issue, it is most likely an issue with the driver configuration. Your router may have assisgned the printer a new IP address and this can be changed in the properties of the existing driver.

  • Encrypted message on one Mac, but not the other, from same server

    I run Mail.app on two Macs, both getting mail off the same Exchange server. Multiple times in the last few weeks, a message will download to one Mac and be fine, and then the other Mac will retrieve the message, and it will suddenly be encrypted. Before a bunch of garbled text, something like the following always appears:
    --000_25539419161D7744ABC322B480ED5DA507650F7Acmhprdexc04netj
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
    If you go to Webmail on the server, the message reads fine. And it is readable on the other Mac. I tried going to View/Message and choosing "next best alternative" but those options are grayed out. Could there be anything else set locally that is making the email unreadable on one machine but not the other? The unreadable version is always on this Mac (a Mac Mini) and not the other one (a MacBook), even though both are running the same OS version and Mail.app version.

  • My ipad screen won't turn one way when I turn/bump my ipad (will do one side but not the other)

    My ipad screen won’t turn one way when I turn/bump my ipad (will do one side but not the other)

    Yes there is a rotation lock setting.
    First try the switch above the volume rocker. If that doesnt work then double click the home button. It should display a multitasking bar at the bottom of the screen. Slide that to the right and it should display a few settings including screen lock. Make sure that it is unchecked.

  • IPhone 5 wifi works in one room but not the other.

    I have an iPhone 5 and the wifi is unreliable. It works in the room with the router but when I walk down the hall it doesn't work. I'm talking 20 feet away. So frustrating because the phone is almost worthless. Why would it connect but only in such close range? No other devices have this problem. Yes, I've turned the wifi on and off. Yes, I've restarted the router. Yes, I've checked the WEP. It just makes no sense that it would work in one room but not the next room. Help!

  • Airdrop works one way but not the other?

    There are two Macbook Airs in my house, both new models (one 13" the other 11"). Airdrop appears to work from the 13" to the 11" but not the other way around. The error message in the console is:
    29/07/11 11:09:49.684 PM Finder: WormholeClient::didFail(kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork, -1200, "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made.")
    I've tried logging in to another (new, clean) user profile to see if there was some kind of conflict going on, but that didn't make a difference.

    It's the firewall settings. It seems like a bug, because in the firewall I had Finder set to allow all incoming connections.
    Do the following:
    - System Preferences, Security, Firewall, Advanced settings
    - Remove the entry for Finder by selecting it and press the minus button
    - Check allow signed software
    - Uncheck block all
    It's working for me now.

  • USB disk connected to TC shows on one Mac, but not the other

    Hi guys!
    The Time Capsule works just great! I'm running it bridged in my existing network, with WiFi turned off.
    And the USB disk shows fine on my Mac, but not on my colleagues' Mac. TC shows on both. What am I missing here?
    The USB disk will serve as "file server" and will be backed up onto TC together with the macs.
    Update: Whoa - now it suddenly shows up on both machines. Go figure.

  • CR2 files open from one camera, but not the other in CS2

    Running Mac with CS2. My camera raw files shot with my lovely Canon 5D open and can be viewed in bridge and in photoshop, but NOT the camera raw from my brand new Canon powershot G9. They are both producing CR2 files. I can see the images in the bridge browser window, but when I double click to open I get a dialogue box that says, "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." I have the 3.7 plug in installed. Please, some god or goddess of photoshop out there, show me the error of my ways!

    Walt,
    I will answer your questions to the best of my ability. But hopefully others who are better at this than I am will offer their help as well. So, here goes.
    1. Everyone has their preferred method of using Bridge. In the Photoshop preferences I have not checked the box to have bridge start automatically. Although I use Bridge most of the time, there are occasions when I don't want to use it. So I prefer to start my Photoshop session by starting Bridge first, and then double-click on an image in Bridge to have it opened in Photoshop. In the Bridge preferences, I have checked the "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge", and I like working that way.
    2. I have seen several people comment about having this problem. And occasionally it will develop after you have been using Bridge/Photoshop for a while. The only thing I can suggest is for you to hold down the Ctrl key while you start Bridge. A dialogue will appear that will allow you to reset your preferences. There are three options and you should choose all three. I know, you haven't had it installed very long, but this "could" be the problem. One guy I talked with said that he had to do it several times before it fixed the problem.
    3. You indicated that you downloaded Camera Raw 4(5). What does that mean? Did you download version 4.5, which is the latest version? And, did you follow the installation instructions that were on the download page? The new plug-in must be put in the exact directory specified, replacing the old version that is already there. The old version cannot be put in a sub folder. You might as well get rid of it. You don't need it anymore. And, again, it has to go into the specific folder designated in the instructions. After you have done that, in Photoshop goto Help/About Plug-ins and click on Camera Raw. It should only be listed once, and when you click on it you should get a dialogue that will tell you what version you have installed.
    4. After I installed CS3, when I inserted a card into my card reader I was presented with the normal Windows options. One of the options I was given was to download using Bridge. I chose that option and indicated to always use that option. I haven't had any problems with it since. But if that option isn't there, you can open Bridge and click on the File menu. There is an option to download images from your camera. It has worked well for me.
