How can I stop an old iphone from getting text?

I just upgraded to a 4s and everytime I get a text, it comes in on both of my devices (only when in wifi for the old phone - no sim anymore obv).  I'm using the same apple ID and the same iCloud for both devices.  It doesn't seem there is a setting in "messages" that disables all text, only imessage or sms messasges.  Any thoughts?

Have you tried turning off iMessage on your old phone or deleting your Apple ID, for iMessage? You can receive iMessage at both your Apple ID & cell number. When your old phone is connected to WiFi, it's obviously using your Apple ID to receive these messages, so first try deleting your Apple ID, for receive, for iMessage, on your old phone.

    That's what I'd do, since they are all free apps. Be sure & delete in iTunes as well as on your phone. When prompted in iTunes, move all files to trash & empty your trash. You don't want any trace of them left.

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

  • How can I stop mail on iPad from going to next message when deleting an email?

    How can I stop the mail app from moving to the next message when deleting an email?
    I like to keep messages as new until I can take action on them, but this just makes an unnecessary step.  I do not have this problem on my iPhone, but I am still running 5.0.1 on the phone and have the new iPad 5.1 software.

    Hi furiousbalancing,
    With regards to deleting messages in Mail, you may find the following portion of the following article helpful:
    To prevent the next message from being automatically selected (and marked as read), hold down the Option key when you delete a message.

    You can also use Command-Shift-U to toggle a message between Read and Unread (command should be the same in Mavericks):

    You can also close the Preview portion of the Mail window, which should then require you to double-click on a message to open it and have it show as read (it appears the double click on the seperator may no longer work in Mavericks, but you should still be able to drag it to make it disappear):

  • How do I remove my old iPhone from "Find My iPhone"?

    How do I remove my old iPhone from the device list?

    From the Help files in the app . . .
    Remove Device
    If you’re no longer using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that was set up to use Find My iPhone, you can remove it from Find My iPhone when the device is offline (turned off or not connected to a data network, such as EDGE, 3G, or Wi-Fi). To remove the device, you need to sign in to me.com on a computer.
    To remove your device from Find My iPhone:
    On a computer, sign in to MobileMe Find My iPhone at me.com/find using your Apple ID email address and password.
    If you’re a paid subscriber, your Apple ID is your MobileMe email address (@me.com or @mac.com) and password.
    If you set up Find My iPhone on more than one device, click the device you want to remove in the Devices list on the left.
    Click the blue arrow to the right of your device’s name (or, if the device hasn’t been located recently, the red clock ).
    In the device window, click Remove (to the right of the device name).
    The Remove link appears after Find My iPhone has tried and failed to connect to your device. This may take a few minutes.
    When asked to confirm if you want to remove the device, click Remove.
    If your device goes online again later and is still set up with your MobileMe account information, the device automatically reappears in Find My iPhone. If you still have access to the device, you can prevent it from reappearing in Find My iPhone by removing your MobileMe account information from the device. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > [YourMobileMeAccount], and then tap Delete Account.
