Help with iphone message problems

My daughter, husband and I have iphones.  When I send a message it also goes to their phones and vice versa.  Only seems to happen when I text other iphone owners whose contacts are NOT in my husband or daughters phone contacts. How can I stop my messages and their replies going to other phones?  We have all deleted icloud from our phones but it's not worked ...

This is being caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage, not by iCloud.  If can be fixed in a couple of ways:
On all but one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (so they are all using a differet ID for iMessage).  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
On all of gthe phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.

  • I have recently swapped my iPhone for a new Samsung S4 contract with new sim and number, but when people with iPhones message me they are sending as iMessage.

    I have taken out a new contract with a Samsung S4 as the mobile device. It has a new sim card I got with the contract and new number. However, when friends with iPhones message me it is sending from their phone as iMessage meaning I am not receiving texts from them. Is this a fault on their side or mine? How do I fix the problem so I am receiving messages from them instead of it sending as iMessage and not received on my phone. Please help

  • I need help with a browser problem

    I am was given a new iMac G3 (from 2001) which was really never used.I have not yet had any serious problems with it, but really could use some help with a browser problem.
    I have 4 different web browsers that needs the macro media flash player update. The browsers I use are internet explorer, iCab, Netscape, and the original Mozilla Firefox.
    It would be of great appreciation for the readers of this post to answer my question.
    I am also having the problem with installing the plug - ins for the browsers. Thank You For Taking the Time To read This!

    Hi, rynodino -
    As Tom has suggested, plugins need to be installed in the Plug-Ins folder for the browser.
    Typically each browser will have its own Plug-Ins folder, usually located in the same folder containing the browser itself. In order for each of several browsers to access the same plugins, the plugins must be replicated and placed in each of the Plug-Ins folders for each of the browsers. The easy way to do that is to hold down the Option key while dragging a plugin to the new location - a copy (not an alias) of the plugin will be generated at the location it is dragged to.
    Most plugins will display a Netscape icon regardless of where they are located - this is normal.
    It is not unusual for the installer for a plugin to default its install to the Plug-Ins folder for Internet Explorer. So be it. Just replicate the new plugin to the other Plug-Ins folders as needed.
    Note that some plugin installs will involve more than one item. For those, be sure to replicate all items for it. Using labels can help identify what is new, what has been most recently added, in a Plug-Ins folder.

    The iPhone includes a one year warranty.
    If you are in a country where Apple provides direct support and has an Apple store, you can contact Apple or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.
    If you live an a country where Apple doesn't provide direct support - support for the iPhone is handled by the official carrier for the iPhone, contact your carrier.

    Can anyone help with this issue?
    Thanks

    Nothing anyone can do for you. You have a second hand phone that's been repaired by an unauthorized 3rd party using counterfeit, stolen, or salvaged parts. Apple won't touch it, as you've learned.
    Buy a new phone. Preferably, from a legitimate source.

  • I need help with IPHOne 4s IOS 7.0.4 battery life not improving

    Alright, I Ned help with my iPhone 4S battler life, it is horrible, it will drain in about 12 hours. All I do is check my email, text a few people, and check a few apps. When I may school, it is a hundred percent, then I check it during school etc, when I go to bed it is about 20-30% battery life. Need help. Any suggestions? I tried a hard resets and restoring to a new iPhone etc, nothing worked.

    I"m not at all sure what is the problem when you are describing your battery as holding its charge for 12 hours???
    How long do you want your device to hold its battery charge???
    Please see this article for tips on conserving battery charge. But PLEASE if you are looking for a device to hold its charge for LONGER than 12 hours I would suggest an android.

                ns.resume();
                t.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,timeHandler);
                t.stop();
    The problem is when I test it on my computer it works but when I upload it to my phone it freezes when I click Sets Anteriores button.
    Please help me with this problem I dont know what else to do.
    thank you

    My first guess is you're simply generating an error. You'll always want to load this on your device in quick debugging over USB so you can see any errors you're generating.
    Outside that, if you plan on accessing anything inside the SWF you should be loading the SWF into the correct context. Relevant sample code:
    var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
    context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
    context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
    var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.[your_domain_here].com/library.swf");
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(urlReq, context);

    If you're doing this on iOS you'll need to stripped SWFs if you plan on using any coding (ABC) inside the files. You mentioned iOS so I won't get into that here, but just incase, here's info on stripping external SWFs:

    As far as I know, iWork (without a s) was never depicted as opening _"all Excel documents"_ but as _"opening Exel documents"_ which means that it open _many of them but not all_ .
    Is it surprising that it is unable to open documents created with an Excel version introduced after the Numbers creation ?
    To get it able to open them, you will have to wait for the next major version.
