How do I stop duplicate iMessages for two phones.

My husband and I have an iPhone. We have one Apple ID that appears to be registered on both phone. When we sent iMessage to each other we get a duplicate text sent to each of us. How do I stop this?

settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell is the defaut.
You may need to remove or uncheck the apple id on both devices.

  • How do I stop contacts updating across two phones?

    Hi
    This is my first post, so please treat me gently
    My partner and me have both just got 3g iphones, we love them but have one slight prob with them.
    When we connect our phones to our itunes account, contact details from both phones are replaced with all the contacts from each of the 2 phones.
    How can we stop this happening? i.e. ensure that my contacts stop on my iphone only and my partners contacts on their iphone only? (and we don't get each others).
    Sorry if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find it when searching.
    Thanks in advance for any help.....

    Hey Rawlad,
    You can create a folder in Outlook or Windows Address Book and then sync the selected folder.
    In iTunes, just click the iPhone> Info tab> Check sync contacts> Selected groups.
    You can also Reset the Sync History in the iTunes preferences window as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692
    Resetting the Sync History would would make iTunes ask if you want to merge or replace contacts.
    Make sure you have at least one contact syncing from the PC before choosing the merge option, so they can merge.

  • HT3529 How do i turn off iMessage for my phone number completely?

    I got rid of my iPhone. I now have a Samsung Galaxy s4. All of my friends and family that had texted me using iMessgae before are now unable to text me because every time they try, it sends an iMessage. I am unable to recieve these messages from my phoe and it is really annoying. I tried turning off my phone number as a send & recieve option on all of my devices. I tried changing my password as suggested by Apple. IT STILL DOES NOT WORK. Does anybody out there have any idea on how to fix this?

    It looks like if you don't have access to re phone you'll need to contact apple support. The link is in the article.

    Ever since I updated my iPhone 4S and my iPad 2 to IOS 6 all my iMessages are coming to both my iPhone and my IPad. How do I stop the iMessages I send and receive on my phone from receiving on my iPad as well? I have tried going into my settings and making sure I'm only set up to receive iMessages to my cell number and not my email....but that didn't fix the problem.

    Here the way to do it, for both, or for only one Go into your settings, Messages and turn on iMessage. It will then send messages that are iMessages to both your iPad and iPhone. You can also turn off this feature on the iPad if you do not want to receive messages on the iPad.

    How can I turn off imessage for just one of my contacts? Me and my husband just upgraded (both had iphone 4), I got the iphone 5s and he got he note 3. All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

    Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
    Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
    Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

  • How can I stop being harrased for keychain passwords

    How can I stop being harassed for keychain passwords?  All my key chain passwords and my login are the same. I am asked for address book, calendar, safari, mail, iMessage, just to name a few.

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
              Change Settings for Keychain "login"
    In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ First Aid
    There are four checkboxes in the window that opens. Check all of them. if they're not already checked. Close the window.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • How reliable is Systweak Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto?

    How reliable is Systweak Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto?

    Here're the cleaning apps I've tested on a limited basis:
    These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported the library.
    DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
    DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
    iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
    PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) -  this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison.  It found all duplicates
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
    Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
    If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates:  PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto.  None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
    iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates.  IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

    Look at using a stop(); command followed by a setTimeout() function call that ends up calling a function that executes a play command...
    stop();
    var stoID = setTimeout(startAgain, 5000);  // 5000 milliseconds
    function startAgain(){
