Which Devices Are Receiving My iMessages?

Does anyone know if there's a way to see how many (or which) devices are receiving your iMessage messages? For example, if I am [email protected], I'd like to know if there are other devices (aside from my own) receiving messages. Is this something Apple can tell me, if I can't find this using the iOS/Mac UIs?
The reason I ask is I had a friend who's dad started receiving all of his messages addressed to his email. And he never enabled Messages on his Dad's phone for his own email, just at some point used the App Store.
Thanks!

Sign out of Messages and reset your phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Then sign back in to Messages. Use the Settings app to check if the phone number can now be selected.

  • HT4890 Where can I check which devices are receiving iCloud information (photos, notes, etc.)?

    I conceive iCloud as a virtual HD from which my devices can access data and, more, which will share same info. between all registered devices. I use MacBook Pro, Iphone 4s and iPad and they are not the same. What do I do? Where can I check wich devices, and what applications are supposed to be shared? Thank you in advance.

    Be sure you devices are sign into the same iCloud account, then turn the data you would like to sync with iCloud to On.  These settings on your iPhone and iPad are in Settings>iCloud.  On your Mac, they are in System Preferences>iCloud.  This guide explains how to set this up: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/.
    Also, if all your devices are signed into the same iCloud account, any data they sync with the account (such as contacts and calendars) will be merged with the data from other devices using the account and the merged data will appear on all connected devices.

  • How can i determine which devices are used at the moment?

    Hi all,
    I am designing an interface with LabVIEW for uing agilent devices. My work colleagues will use this interface.  I want to determine which devices are used at the moment and if I determine used device, i will add automatically device names to interface's main vi. So all my work colleagues can see on the program which devices are used by another colleague. This devices are connected with GPIB. İ want to learn is there any function on Instrument I/O palette.
    Thanks,
    Omer
    Solved!

    Hi Omer,
    so those devices are connected to the PC with a GPIB connection. Will your collegues run several DAQ programs at the same time?
    GPIB-devices being controlled by PC don't have a "in use"-signal. They wait for commands, execute them and send an answer. When you start to control them using two programs they may respond to both programs, mixing up settings/measurement values and so on.
    That being said: In MAX you can see all devices connected to your GPIB port. You could scan the GPIB port using VISA commands in your program. You might even try to access a certain device by it's VISA alias. I really don't know if you will get a "device nopt available" error message when that VISA alias is in use by a different program - but you might do a quick test on your own…

  • How to find which devices are still using affected domain controller

    Hi Everyone,
    We have a 5 Domain controller's in a Site. And we are going to decommisson one of our affected DC in a site.
    Can you please let me know how to find  the log files to see which devices are still using this domain controller.
    Regards,
    Neel kamal

    Neel,
    From strictly an Active Directory perspective, there is nothing special you need to do to decommission a domain controller in a site.  There are many processes that automatically balance out and recreate connections as needed without any user intervention. 
    The DC Locator process will automatically direct clients to active domain controllers, there is nothing you need to do here. 
    What you need to be concerned with are things like the following:
    DNS - Are you running AD integrated DNS and is the DC you are decommissioning hosting that roll - if so, is it the ONLY DC in the
    site that is running DNS?  You'll need at least one in the site.
    DHCP server - Is the DC you are demoting a DHCP server?  You'll need to account for that.
    Global Catalog - Is the DC you are demoting a Global Catalog server?  You'll need at least one in the site.
    File Shares - Is the DC hosting any files shares?  You'll need to move those and make sure you redirect your clients.
    Was this DC a set as a Preferred Bridgehead Server?  You'll need to undo that first.
    Those are the big ones that come to mind.  Decommissioning a DC is easy if you have prepared properly.  The others that have replied have offered some great advice which you should follow.  Do your homework and you should be fine.
    Hope that helps

    Is there a way to see what devices are using my iMessage account?

    so if we do have the same apple id is it possible to delete if from any of the other devices or any where I can just unactivate them from my apple id account to where it would delete the message if they happened to get it?

  • How do i see which devices are connected to my airport router

    How do I see which wi fi devices are hooked up to my router?  Also, my Verizon Network Extender is not working with my new airport express router?  How do I get it to work?  My system and GPS lights are red on the extender.

    How do I see which wi fi devices are hooked up to my route
    Open AirPort Utility
    Hold down the option key on your Mac while you double click on the AirPort icon
    Click on each wireless device displayed for more info about that device
    Also, my Verizon Network Extender is not working with my new airport express router?
    Apple uses proprietary settings for their "extend" feature on their routers, so it would be extremely unlikely that a device from another manufacturer would be compatible for this purpose.

  • How can i tell what devices are accessing my iMessages?

    I suspect someone has set up an iPad to download my iMessages without my authorization. How can I tell what devices are linked to my phone's iMessaging?

    Thank you both. I am changing my password...I was just hoping there was some way I could tell if this other person had been reading my iMessages up to this point. It seems like there is not. How about this scenerio: I turn off the iMessaging on my phone. I have someone who has iMessaging send me an iMessage. We see if their device registers their message as "delivered" even if it doesn't come through to my phone. Would that indicate then that it had been delivered to another device?

  • How can I see which devices are registered for automatic download (synching) from iCloud?

    Hello!
    I have a numerous of apple devices and would like to know how I see if they are ALL regisitered to my icloud.

    Devices are associated with an Apple ID whenever you do one of three things: turn on iTunes Match; turn on Automatic Downloads (in Settings>iTunes & App Stores on an iOS device, and in iTunes Preferences>Store on a computer; or download previously purchased content from the iTunes or App stores.  If you do any of these on your other devices, they will become associated with the Apple ID they are sign into at the time. 
    Keep in mind that once associated with an ID, they cannot be associated with a different ID for 90 days.  You can associate up to 10 devices with an ID, 5 of which can be computers.

  • Mifi 4620L - how do I determine which devices are using my data?

    I Have a couple kids connecting to our Mifi4620 and we keep going over our 20gb data limitation.  How can I find out what devices are using data and when as we. As how much so I can track down my high data usage culprit?

    I have made several comments on another forum about my high data usage.  The forum name is "HIGH DATA USUAGE being used". One thing I have found effective in my trouble shooting is to make sure all devices are off and will not auto connect to the WiFi.
    1. Turn on the WiFi and make a log of everything that you do and with a time.
    2. turn on only one device and do what ever you want to use that device for. (ALL other devices off}
    3. Wait about 5 minutes when finished and then turn the MiFi off.
    4. Wait 5 to 10 minutes before turning the MiFi back on to make sure all data got registered.
    5. Do these steps for each device and keep a log of sites visited and what was done on each device.
    6. Log into your Verizon account and go to data then down nearer the bottom there is a box where you can select a device. Select the router phone number and it will give you a detailed listing of data usage and times.  The time in the listing is the time the session started and will add all data used until the MiFi session is ended.  If nothing is connected it will check about about every 160 minutes ( 2 hrs. 45 minutes) you will see a small data usage.  If something is connected you will see data usage every totaled every 6 hours (approximately). By turning the MiFi off you can stop the 6 hour totaling and only total the session up to that time. Of course you have to wait long enough for their computers to get the total data usage.  At one time I would have to wait 3 to 4 days for some of these to show up but recently it shows up within a couple of hours and has always been updated over night. I have been downloading the detail usage since every morning since August.  I made an excel spread sheet that will total on a daily basis the total data used for a day when I do a copy of my download and paste it into my spreadsheet.
    I hope this helps although you might want to read the other forum,  You are not alone with a problem.  I hope you can solve your problem and if you would not mind posting a reply to me as to what you find if you can solve your problem. I thought my problem was solved but it is back and I have run out of ideas as to what else I can check or change. Today I went to Sprint store and can switch to one of their plans and save $18.00 per month but the problem with that is that the Sprint connection is not quite as good where I live.

  • I keep getting a message about my phone number being used for iMessage on a new iPhone. How can I see what devices are using my iMessage account and phone number?

    The message "Your phone number is now being used for imessage on a new iPhone" Keeps appearing on my macbook pro. It also says "If you just activated iMessage on a new iPhone, you can ignore this alert." But the only option is to ignore the alert, because the only thing I can do with it is click "ok" and dismiss it. Is there a way I can look at a list of the devices using my iMessage account, and if there are devices that I don't recognize on that list, how can I block them from using my account?

    Hi If you have another Apple  device check on that screen & accept. Cheers Brian

  • Wake Up Proxy Client - Ascertain Which Devices are 'Guardian' Machines

    How can we tell which machines have been selected as the 3 per subnet 'guardian' machines.  is there a log file for that?

    @MikhailCompo - I would first look in SleepAgent.log. Sorry I don't have this feature enabled in my environment right now.
    Do you have any relevant information in WOLCMgr.log or WOLMgr.log ? It's the only log I can think of...
    Benoit Lecours | Blog: System Center Dudes
    Thanks for the suggestions: There are no WOLCMgr.log or WOLMgr.log logs in the client
    logs folder on a device with the Wake Up Proxy installed.
    Also, looked in the SleepAgent.log and this seems to be the only trace.  It does
    specifically mention after PC reboot "Start wakeup proxy service" and shows the check/configuration of the relevant WOL settings on the network adapter it considers the correct one (incidentally, this Win 8 machine has Hyper-V installed and it mentions that,
    and identifies the virtual adapter correctly
    It also show that it has identified two other machines to use as 'Guardian's also, which were definitely already switched on (despite the 'Woke' comment) but no mention of how it has decided those are the machines to use. Log shows:
    Start all services
    Processor Monitor STARTED
    Becoming a guardian ...
    Create Power Request: Your machine is currently acting as a network guardian
    Set Power Request
    Woke LEPBKXPKV to make it a guardian
    Woke VIRTUALSERVER5 to make it a guardian

  • Is ther a way to see which devices are connected?

    It shows 3 devices but i have noidea which is which. I have prem. services is that the same as the family plan? I want to be able to have it on my phone, wifes and childs along with a computer. How do i do that and also have them login without using facebook?

    Hey there !
    So you'll need a separate account for each user as the terms and conditions only allow a Spotify account to be used for one individual. If your daughter and wife don't have a Spotify account of their own, create one one for them using their own e-mail addresses here. When their accounts are created they can then link their Facebook accounts to their Spotify account in their account overview. Once all those accounts are made and set-up, login with account that you want to manage the family plan and head over to the Family Plan page. Since you only need just you and and two other family members select "Me + 2 family members" which will be a total of $19.99/month (pricing varies between countries/currencies). Once the payment is processed you'll be able to add the accounts by inviting them to your plan which will send them an e-mail once selected. You then have to go into those e-mails and click those links to get attached. After that, you are all set! 
    Those accounts can be logged into as many different clients at the same time, but now they can only have one stream at a time per account and can only have a maximum of three devices that hold music for offline use. For more information on listening offline view this link here.
    Let me know if you have any further questions! :)

  • Can you control which devices are on network

    Is there an application to control and monitor the Airport Extreme Base Station Network?
    I'd like to be able to shut down access to, for example, my kids' devices at night without shutting down the whole network.

    Timed Access in AirPort Utility will allow you to control individual devices and the times that the device is allowed to connect to the wireless network.
    For example, you could setup Junior's iPad to be allowed to connect to the network Weekdays between 9:00 AM and 9:00 PM. Junior would not be able to connect to the network at any other times than those listed.
    Another device could be setup to have access to the network Weekdays between 5:00 PM and 10:00 PM, and so forth.
    Devices that do not have a specific rule set up for them are allowed to connect to the network at any time.
