If you also want seperate Contacts and some other things:
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

    HI,

    HI Ralph,
    I'm having a hard time finding solution for iMessage.
    I can't send to one specific contact - we both use 4s iOS 6.1.3 and so is he.
    We cant send to each other. We tried to on/off sign in And sign out Apple ID on both phone and still doesn't work
    We even reset and erase content on his iPhone.
    We use different Apple ID.
    Looking forward to your reply, thanks in advance!
    I have added some punctuation and spread out the text to see if I have understood what you were saying.
    The Original Post  was about iMessages from the Mac Messages app.
    Now we are talking about  two people with  an iPhone each.
    You seem to be centered on something being amiss with his set up as you have Reset and Erased his iPhone  (no info on any restore from any backup).
    Can he/could he contact with anyone else before you reset his iPhone ?
    Can he contact anyone else now ?
    If this person cannot contacts anyone from his iPhone it would seem he has not set up the iPhone correctly.
    This may be a simple thing such as not having a Data Contract and therefore having Data Off and not be connected to a Wifi Network either.
    It may be more involved such as there being an issue with his Apple ID.
    If he removes the Apple ID  can he Send from the iPhone Number ?

    Use the same ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on both devices and have people use that ID. Your iPhone number would be a good choice.

    If my phone service is disconnected, can I still use the number to iMessage? Under my setting in iMessages it only allows me to select my linked emails and the telephone number is there but grayed out and i can't seletect it ! It wont activate. I just recentely got AT&T.  When I had verizon before and my phone got disconnected it allowed me to still iMessage off my number.

    If your phone service is disconnected, it's not your number any more.
    If you "just got AT&T", how can it be disconnected?

    HOw can I set up group contacts on my IPad Air?

    I Don't know if you can or not.
    but you could try one if these 2 things:
    -under a new contact in name type the names of the people. Next, I'm not sure if this will work, but for phone just put a different hone down.
    -Also tou could just make a group message. In messages just type all the names in the to field after you tap compose.

  • How do i set up my eprint on my ipad so that im able to print?

    how do i set up my printer on my ipad so im able to print?

    In order to AirPrint from your iPad/iPhone, here's all you need to do:
    1. Make sure the printer and iPad/iPhone are connected to the same local network.
    2. Open something you want to print (on the iPad/iPhone).
    3. On the iPad/iPhone, tap the "Action" button (arrow curving out of a box).
    4. Tap "Print".
    The steps below typically resolve the issue you’re experiencing:
    1. Power off the printer.
    2. Completely power off the iOS devices (hold the Sleep and Home buttons simultaneously until a message appears asking you to "Slide to power off". Slide across that bar, and it should completely power off).
    3. Power the printer back on.
    4. Power the iOS devices back on.
    5. Try to print again.
    Those steps usually resolve the issue. If they do not, try this additional steps:
    6. Power cycle your router (usually done by unplugging the router’s power cord, waiting 20 seconds, and plugging it back in).
    7. Make sure that the iOS devices and the printer are all connected to the same network, then try to print.
    If I have SOLVED your issue, please feel free to provide KUDOS and make sure you mark this thread as SOLUTION PROVIDED!

    This tells you all you need to know ... including a list of the printers supported by AirPrint, which is the best way to use the iPad to print.

    If you don't have a printer on the attached list, you'll have to search the App Store for some print utility, probably supplied by the manufacturer.

  • HT204023 How do I set up to print from my iPad directly to a wi-fi direct printer WITHOUT going through my household  wi-fi network/modem?

    How do I set up to print from my iPad directly to a "wi-fi direct" printer WITHOUT going through my household wi-fi network/modem? I want to get rid of my household internet service/modem and only use my iPad, but need to be able to print. Please help! Thank you!

    Depending on the printer, you may be able to connect/print by creating an ad-hoc (Wi-Fi direct with no router) connection. Check with your printer manufacturer to see if this is supported.
    There's a ton of info out there. You could google "ipad print ad-hoc" for some useful info. But the number one thing for you right now is to verify that your printer model supports an ad-hoc connection.

    How can I delete the IMessage App from my IPad? I downloaded the app myself. It does not show an X on it when held down either. Any ideas?

    You can't delete the app iMessage.
    You can turn it Off or "hide" it with Restrictions.
