Every time I send a text, it sends the same message twice

I have had my phone for about a week now and every time I send a text to someone it sends the message twice.
I have no idea why this is happening. What can I do to stop it from sending the message twice?

Hi samglow!
Let's take a look into this, we want your messages sent only once. Let me ask...are you using a 3rd party application for messaging, or the app that came with the phone? Are you receiving messages just once, or more than once? What's the software version of your device?
To troubleshoot, please remove the SIM from the device, and power off/on. Then, test again.
Thanks!

This phone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. i have installed and re installed the program and every time i plug my iphone 6 in the same message pops up

Have managed to cure it based upon the following information received -
I keep having this problem with iTunes when I try to connect my iPod Touch to iTunes. I keep getting this error message: "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed".
What I did:
Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes.
I have already done this required step about a hundred times and I am still getting this same error so if you have any idea of what I can do please help.
Solution
I was running the 64-bit version if iTunes, and I did uninstall and re-install just to make sure -- no luck. Turns out there's a really easy solution, I'll spare you the detail of how I figured it out, but if you encounter the same issue, here's the solution:
1) Using WinRAR (or any other decent archiving program), extract iTunesWindows64Setup.exe
2) Right click on AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi and choose Properties.
3) Switch to the Compatibility tab and check the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" box, and select your only option, "Previous versions of Windows", in the drop-down box.
4) Click OK
5) Double click the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi
6) Tell it to Repair your current installation
7) Done!

I just bought a new Iphone and when I connected it to itunes and I downloaded the backup from my last device, now I can't pass this step and every time I connect it to itunes is the same thing.

I just bought a new Iphone and when I connected it to itunes and I downloaded the backup from my last device, now I can't pass this step and every time I connect it to itunes is the same thing. And I can't download any app because problems with my account regarding the credit card but the information is correct and it says it is not!!!

You'll have to contact iTunes store support regarding your credit card information problem: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. I'm not clear on what you're saying about your backup. Are you saying that when you connect to iTunes it's asking you to restore from backup even though you already have?

Every time I sync my itouch I get the following message - "iTunes could not back up the iPod because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPod. Delete the backup for this iPod, then try again." But I get the same message again.... Any ideas?

Every time I sync my iTouch I get the following message - "iTunes could not back up the iPod because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPod. Delete the backup for this iPod, then try again." However, when I follow these instructions, delete the backup and try again - I get the same message. Any ideas what is wrong?

Every time i repair permissions i keep getting this same message...

Perhaps i'm being paranoid, but every time i repair permissions i keep getting this same message that:

Does anyone know what this means? Is anyone else getting these messages consistently when running repair permissions? i did a clean installation of Leopard and have run the updater. Permissions seem to take a while to repair, and i am going to install the larger 10.5.1. updater as soon as it finishes downloading... but i did run the 40 mb updater that software update downloaded.
Any insight would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

This is the only trouble if at all that I have in installing Leopard, and while some as discussed previously are nothing to be concerned about the others have me concerned. From the installation disk I have run Disk repair and Repair Permissions but nothing changes in the list below. So any thoughts on how to clear some out?

my ipod wont update because it gives me a (-1) error code and i really need to update it and suggestions? ive read the troubleshoot page on it and it said something about uninstalling the security software and i have no idea how to do that.....

Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. in that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I updated my MAC to Mavericks and purchased iPhoto 9.5. Installed new version of iPhoto and installed using iPhoto Library Upgrade as directed. Each time I try open iPhoto I receive the same message.

I updated my MAC to Mavericks and purchased iPhoto 9.5. Installed iPhoto; however when I try to open iPhoto I receive The folling, "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first must be prepared. To prepare use iPhoto Library Upgrade". I have have downloaded and installed the upgrader, with no success.
I need to add that I am a senior and am not as computer savey as I should be. Therefore, i really need step by step help.

After you download the upgrader, you will need to go to your Applications folder and find the Utilities folder.
In there will be the iPhoto Library Upgrader (version 1.1). Open the application and follow the instructions. Should get you going.

You must be using an old version of Acrobat as Organizer hasn't been in the last two versions of Acrobat. Here is the KB that covers that old error: Error "The Organizer Database is damaged and will be reset..." | Acrobat 9

Since the last OS upgrade, whenever I send a text it sends a copy to myself the bcc function is off. what do I do to stop getting copied on my texts?

since the last iOS (6.1) upgrade, whenever I send a text it sends a copy to myself the bcc function is off. what do I do to stop getting copied on my texts?

First the update to 8.0.2 is not as I far as I have read not buggy. I can do a Google search and see.
Each device iPhone, ipad, iPod must have a separate Apple ID and password so as to stop receiving imessages to every device sharing the apple ID. That fixes your initial question.
The phone ringing to every device is fixed via Face Time
Settings-Facetime-iphone cellular calls
Must be turned off (Grey) if you don't want all the devices ringing.

Can 2 people in different locations at the same time import, access, send, and receive the same messages from the same email account

I import messages into Thunderbird. I send and receive emails. One of the things I like about Thunderbird is that I can insert (image, link, etc) right where I want to, and I can Attach. But not just a simple attach file. No, I can also click Attach and choose Webpage. A lot of web-based emails are plain, simple, no frills - Attach file and that's it.
So I need to have my client be able to do the same thing I do when sending out emails, Namely sending out emails with an Electronic Press Kit (EPK) attached - which is to say, a webpage (not a pdf in our case). So, I need her to download, install, and use Thunderbird.
Here's the problem and my question. She needs to access, send, and receive from my email account. That would be easy if it was simple attach files - she could just login on the web, go to squirrel mail and bang it out.. Here it is: She needs to be able to import the messages to be able to reply to some messages - she needs access to what I have access to. She needs to use Thunderbird so she can take advantage of the features like insert image with link or attaching a webpage. My question is how will this affect my use? Can 2 people simultaneously and from different locations access and use the same email account or is it a case where her importing the emails would cut me off..Is it an either or thing? Basically, can her and I both import the emails or can they only be imported to one location at a time. Because every time someone sends me an email i get it right there on my Thunderbird application..it's imported to my Thunderbird..I want her and I to be able to do that without affecting each other. I don't want her to start importing to her desktop and then I can no longer import. If she says "point those messages to my computer what will happen to my ability to access them on my computer in the same manner I am currently?

I think there is a contradiction in your requirements. You want two people to share an account and you don't want either to interfere with the other.
The short and simple answer is to use IMAP to connect to the mail server. If your current email provider doesn't offer IMAP, find another that does. This is old technology already and it's disgraceful that some email providers haven't yet put it in place.
IMAP means that your messages are stored on the server and both of you will see exactly the same set of messages. And therein lies the contradiction; you will both see changes made by the other so you are inherently interfering with one another.
Caveats: some providers may not permit you both to access the account concurrently, and even if they do, things may become interesting if you both choose to work on the same message simultaneously.
Note that all of this is about email servers and protocols; your choice of Thunderbird as your email client has little bearing on the situation.

When i send a text in iMessage the person receiving it gets it from my email address... how do i change that. and in message settings the receiving thing has my email and phone number but my phone number is gray and i can't click on it

Hello Todd:
I had this very same problem when trying to activate iMessage and Facetime on my iPad. When I signed into my account, I actually wasn't even presented with the option of a phone number - notwithstanding the fact that I was contacting others (and being reached by others) by my phone number on my iPhone. Having both the iPad and the iPhone on, I kept trying to turn off and on both iMessage and Facebook in Settings on both my iPad and iPhone, hoping that that they would eventually sync. But this proposed solution by others was unsuccessful for me.
Then, I found out what the problem was: When my iPhone was activated, it automatically registered my phone number for contact purposes. I was using iMessage on my iPhone for quite some time without actually being signed into my Apple ID account. When another device - such as an iPad or iPod - is being used for iMessage or Facebook, you are prompted to sign into your Apple account, using your username and password. These two devices will not register your phone number as an option for contact unless your iPhone is signed into your Apple account as well. In other words: your phone number will not be synced.
Go into your "Settings" on your iPhone and click on "Messages". Scroll down and click on "Send & Receive" (which should be followed by your phone number). On the next page, you will be able to determine whether or not your iPhone is using the Apple ID for messaging purposes. (Note: This information applies for Facetime as well.) If it is using your Apple ID for messaging, than at the top, you will see "Apple ID: <your particular e-mail account>" in Blue text. However, if you are not using your Apple ID for messaging, than you will see the words: "Use your Apple ID for message". Even though below this you will see your phone number checked as the contact source, you will want to click the tab that says, "Use your Apple ID for message". Sign into your account (just as you must sign in for iMessage on your other devices), and just choose your phone number as the "Send & Receive" contact. (The option of the e-mail will be there too, but you don't have to check it. And later on, you can delete it as an option.)
Now that all of your devices are signed in using your Apple ID, the other devices should register your phone number as a choice. It may take a little while, however. What I did was sign out of iMessage on my iPad, and then sign in again. If the option didn't appear, I just went back and signed in again, and kept doing this until the option for the phone number appeared.
Again, this will work for Facetime as well. The solution is to sync your iPhone account with the other devices by using your Apple ID for messaging (and Facetime) purposes.
I hope that this works for you, Todd! ~ Brian
