Help! I want to turn iMessage off a phone I don't have
I have two iPhones, one for work and a personal one. I had iMessage turned off on my personal iPhone, and only used iMessage on my work phone since it's the one I use the most. I recently gave my personal phone to my ex-husband and iMessage was still turned on. He is getting all of my iMessage texts (I am assuming he is only getting iMessage text). How is that possible? I did have them synced to the same iTunes account, is that why? I really need to find a way to have this stop. Will turning off iMessage on my work phone stop this all together?
Help!
Mozilla also accepts Bitcoin. There isn't anything else that is available.. Perhaps a prepaid mastercard or something similar (if you have it over there).

All my contacts use iPhones but one doesn't use iMessage because it uses data. I want to use iMessage for other contacts but i have to turn off for just one contact. Can I turn iMessage off for just one contact?
You need to delete here conversation and start another one using her phone number and not her Apple ID. You cannot delete iMessage, you can disable it. If the Apple server still sees her iPod with iMessage on and using her Apple ID, then it will continue to appear to your phone that she has iMessage. She needs to take a look at this support document about permanently disabling iMessage for her account. Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone

When an iDevice gets wet the First thing to do is Turn it Off... leaving it on is not good.
If you cannot Turn it off... go to your nearest Apple Store. -
Why can't I turn iMessage off on iPad 4?
I have iMessage off on iPhone 4S because so many of my friends/contacts are not on iMessage. Most because they can't have it.
Now I bought an iPad 4. When I turn off iMessage , a sign in screen covers my messages screen. And I have to sign in if I want to send any messages at all. As soon as I sign on the screen of course goes away but then it has turned iMessage back on
My son has an iPad 3. He is able to turn off iMessage and has no problem.
What am I doing incorrectly?
I tried deleting network and reestablishong. And turning iPad off after I turn iMessage off, waiting 30 seconds and rebooting. It does not help
Oh I have my iCloud email addrrss, and regular email address setup for messages on iPad 4!" My cell number is checked buy shaded out. It will not uncheck
Thank youI am probably being dense. But iMessage is off on iPhone so nothing is selected . On iPad I have 1 email address picked which is my regular email and the @me account checked off. Then it has my phone number shaded gray which I am assuming is because the iPad is not a phone. What am I missing, any ideas? Thank so much

I have 2 Iphones, registered under the same AppleID. Mine, and my mom's. I recently (today) did the software udate for her phone, and ever since-she receives every message i send to my girlfriend, and every response that my girlfriend sends to me. I read up on Imessage, and checked the settings on both phones. On each phone "imessage"was turned on, so i turned Imessage off. Will this solve the problem of my mom receiving every message that i send and receive? Also, if i turn Imessage back on, on my phone-will i still have privacy to text?
Why not create a second Apple ID? Wouldn't that solve the problem much more straightforwardly?
Here's a helpful website: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/ -
Every time i turn iMessage off it pops up to turn it on right away. I want to be able to send messages to non iPhone phones. How do I keep that iMessage off
OK. Now I am confused. Why are you going back into Messages of you do not want to use it. You cannot Message with non iOS devices which I assume you do realize. So just don't use Messages.
If you have a texting app that you want to use, that should have no bearing at all what you do with the Messages app. Am I missing something here? It sure wouldn't be the first time for me ..... -
Saved texts deleted after turning iMessage off
All my saved texts were deleted after I turned iMessage off. Anyone know why and how to get messages back without restoring?
If I try my app with the DefaultGrayPhone or QwertyDevice, it works ok, the data keeps stored after a turn the mobile off, like the DefaultColorPhone used to work.Looks like you're using WTK - right? When I had problems like you describe, I typically cleaned up appdb folder.
appdb folder is usually located in WTK installation directory. In some versions it could be placed somewhere in "user documents" directory.
Typically, I simply removed "DefaultColorPhone" subfolder of appdb. To be on a safer side, you better make a backup copy of this folder prior to its deletion.

If I sent an iMessage, then it told me it didn't deliver so I pressed send as text then I turned iMessage off.. When I turn it on will it re send the iMessage that was undelivered or not?
Turn off iMessage and Facetime. Put phone on airplane mode. Turn on iMessage then facetime and retry sending. You can also try turning off your phone instead of airplane mode as well.
Make sure for imessage to work there must be data such as cellular data on or wifi. -
My iPod used to be signed in with my moms apple ID but now I have my own. When I opened IMessage it wanted me to sign in, but on the last step it said, "your email can't be verified since its already in use" please help I want to use IMessage.

is there any way to block text from specific numbers to imessage without turning imessage off?
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage at:
Select the right facing arrow in a blue circle next to the email address this girl is sending iMessage to and select Remove This Email.
If she has your cell phone number, she can switch to sending iMessage to that and there will be nothing you can do, but removing the email address will prevent you from receiving an iMessage addressed to that email address. -
How do I get music out of "icloud" and turn it off? Didn't/don't want it.
How do I get my music out of icloud and turn it off? Didn't/don't want my music in the clouds, I want it in my ipod where I can listen to it.
Thank you.You can go into your settings and turn icloud off. It will remove what is there. Your music is on your ipod and you should be able to listen to it. icloud stores the music to share/update your other devices - ipad, iphone etc. so you only need to make a chage on one device. The cloud changes it in all other devices.

I no longer have my iphone and need to turn imessage off
i no longer own an iphone and need to turn imessage off but i no longer have the phone at all so i cant turn it off myself
If youv'e ever called them they should have it on file. If you haven't call your carrier first and tell them that you need imessage turned off but don't have the imei number for the old iphone and ask if they still have it. Once you get it you can call apple and give them that number or have your carrier just route you straight to them.

Suggestion: iPhone when locked should ask the passcode if you want to turn it off. We can locate if steel by someone if they cant turn it off. Also they should put a kind of security so robbers cant take the SiMCard out easily

Do a search in this forum about forgot passcode or phone is disabled because of forgotten passcode.
See how many threads there are for that, now imagine if what you want happens, how many threads do you think we will have about not remember the passcode.
Bad idea. -
