Why are my iMessages being sent to my father's iPhone as well as mine?

I updated my iPhone to the newest software last night, and now all of my iMessages are being sent to my father's phone. My messages are only linked to my number, iCloud account and email. His is nowhere on it. What is going on?

You visually verified that on both phones?  If so, I'm not sure what the problem is... don't know how that could happen unless your emails matched.
Try turning iMessage off on one or both and then back on.

  • Why are my iMessages being sent as if they are from my e-mail?

    I am sending texts (iMessages) from my iPhone and people are telling me that it is coming up as if it from my e-mail address on their phone.
    I have all my setting correct it seems, and have my phone number checked under "All conversations starting from"
    I use my iPad and iPhone to iMessage, but my is my e-mail address showing up on people's phones?  How do I fix it so that it just comes up with my name, like it always have been/should be?

    In Settings > Messages > Send and Receive > Start New Conversations From you'll likely see that your email address is checked, so that's why it appears text is coming from your email.  If you want the default to be your phone number, check it instead.

  • Why are my messages being sent through email rather than iMessage?

    Why are my messages being sent as email rather than iMessage?

    Not being sent as email - shown as being sent from an email address because you have selected to start new iMessage conversations from your Apple ID email address on your iPhone.
    When registering an iPhone with iMessage, the phone number along with your Apple ID email address is registered with it.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start New Conversations From - select your iPhone's phone number.

  • Why is my iMessage being sent as a text message?

    A couple of days ago I installed iOS 5 on my iPhone 4. Now, for my contacts who also own iPhones, iMessages seem to be activated. When I send a message, the bubble is blue, indicating an iMessage.
    But then, a few minutes later, these messages are turning green, and underneath them is a line saying "sent as Text message".
    Is this a bug? Why's this happening? At the moment, iMessage seems to be useless, at least for me. (I'm in Canada, working on a Bell contract. Does that factor in?)

    I'm having this problem also.
    Both my wife and I have an iPhone 4 running iOS5, we were texting using iMessage, and it was working but then for some strange reason, the last 3 or so messages we sent got sent as text, but it didn't show them being sent as a text, until you left iMessage, and returned to it.
    The problem was, I had sent 2 pictures through iMessage, they got sent as MMS, and I got charged for them.
    Apple need to split iMessage from sms, instead of rolling them in the same app, that way you know your in iMessage, and you know when your in sms.
    Why apple have decided to leave them in the same app is a mystery.
    Sort it out Apple.

  • Why are my emails being sent out multiple times, ie from me mac and icloud?

  • Why are my imessages showing up on my daughter's iphone?

    My daughter and I both have iphones and just updated to ios7. since the update, when either of us get a message from someone we both have on our contact list it will show up on both phones. When she sends me a text I get it and so does she. How do we change this?

    The problem is you are both using the same Apple ID.
    You should each have your own.
    Check the settings here:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Recieve > remove the number that doesn't belong
    This will fix the message problem but using the same Apple ID will also merge all iCloud items enabled on the device here:
    Settings > iCloud
    Such as:
    Contacts, calendars , reminders, pjjotos, bookmarks, etc...
    It can get quit messy. It is always best to use your own Apple iD if for nothing else but iCloud.

  • HT1688 why are my imessages now turning into text messages all the time?

    Why are my iMessages now turning into text messages all the time?

    There are a number of reasons why they may be sent as regular sms and not iMessages. If either party is in an area with poor reception and the the data network is struggling, the regular sms messages will be sent to the recipient. iMessage can be switched off at a users convienince, your recipients may have iMessage turned off when you've sent those messages.
    There are instances where the iMessage server is not responding due to techinical issues (although, few and far between)

  • Your Emitac Mobile Solutions LLC email service is deactivated, Email messages are no longer being sent to your Blackberry device

    Hi 
    I just got this message yesterday: Your Emitac Mobile Solutions LLC email service is deactivated, Email messages are no longer being sent to your Blackberry device. 
    And since then, i havent being able to set up more than one email and i subscribed for 4. 
    I have rebooted\,, sent service books and hard set the phone so many times.
    What should i do?
    Thank you

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    From your post, I cannot quite tell if you did all of this, in exactly this way. Hence, with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
    1) Register HRT
    KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
    Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
    2) Delete and Resend Service Books
    KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
    If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
    KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
    3) Reboot
    With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
    See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your configurations for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
    Good luck!

  • SnippetPreview$.htm - Why are these not being deleted?

    I have the following files in my project folder:
    SnippetPreview$.htm
    SnippetPreview1$.htm
    SnippetPreview2$.htm
    SnippetPreview3$.htm
    SnippetPreview4$.htm
    I noticed them because they are not in Visual SourceSafe so they appear when I go to add files to VSS when I create new snippets. They contain the text of snippets I've created.
    I know they are harmless, but why are they not being automatically deleted from RH when no longer needed?
    Is this a setting or preference I can set?

    Sometimes temporary files are left behind. These are just files created on previewing a snippet and like any other temporary files are not deleted. Just delete them.

  • Why are my podcasts being deleted from my iPhone every time I sync them?

    why are my podcasts being deleted from my iPhone every time I sync them?

    I also have this problem though it only seems to affect my iPod Nano (6th gen).  It does not seem to affect my iPhone (though now as I type this, I better confirm that as I haven't manually managed podcasts on my iPhone since the last iTunes updates).  I have iTunes set to "manually manage music and videos" (just like OP, I'd rather manage music and videos myself rather than construct playlists and have iTunes sync them), and under the "Podcasts" tab on my nano, I do not have "Sync Podcasts" checked.
    Is this something that has occurred since the last iTunes update?
