How do I unmerge mine and my husband's contacts on our iphones?
Mine and my husband's contact lists are merged. If I make a change to a contact it changes it on his phone too. How can we get back our original contact lists and keep them seperate?
I just know how to keep separeted: create different accounts, or turn "contacts" off, on iCloud settings in one of the iPhones.

How can i keep mine and my husbands contacts from combining when syncing phone
How can i keep mine and my husbands contacts from combining when syncing our phones
Don't sync each iPhone with the same supported address book app on the shared computer.
There are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts over the air such as with a free iCloud account, with a Yahoo account, Gmail account, and Hotmail account.
Do that instead with different accounts for each of you and no longer sync contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer. -
i have recently lost my iphone. Both mine and my husbands phones are synced to same apple account and now his phone is recieving ll of my i messages and i am not getting them. How do i stop this?
Sounds like your sharing the same apple id. settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell number is the default for both phones.

I have tried to update an apps on my mini iPad but it says this update is for an app downloaded with a diffrent Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again. I have tried both mine and my husbands ID and it still does not work.
We'll you can either do as Niel suggested, delete it and download it again with one of the two Apple ID's, or if you want to be sure that one of the two you actually bought the app, look in the purchased tab of the App Store when you are signed into your ID and see if the app shows up in there and if not, then sign into your husband's ID and see if the app shows up with his ID.
After you you figure out who actually bought the app, use that ID to update it. If it still doesn't work, try signing out of that ID, restart the iPad, sign in again and try to update again. -
I down loaded the new io6 to my daughters iPod touch4 and it froze. I had to reset it and now both my daughters iPods are linked to mine and my husbands iPhones . I cannot fix. How do I fix this?
Connect the iPod to the computer she syncs with and restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
She can also restore from iCloud backup if she has an iCloud backup. -
My husband and I both downloaded icloud on our Iphones. We have one apple account. Now I have all of his contacts, and I don't want them, how can I get my phone to show only my contacts?
Welcome to the Apple community.
You both need your own iCloud accounts. I would set up the second iCloud account and get all the data showing in both accounts, before trying to delete anything. You will need to delete the unwonted contacts and appointments etc manually. -
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. -
I share a macbook with my other half and we both use it for our iphones. When syncing using the new software I now have all of her and my contacts on my phone. I don't want her contacts! How do I get rid?
Hi,
You have 2 solutions:
1 - You can use 2 differents icloud account
2 - You use the same account but you don't sync yours contacts.
You configure that in Settings > icloud
You activate or desactivate what you want.
Have a nice day. -
I share an Apple ID with someone but we are now on iOS8 and getting each others messages on our iphones and ipad. How can I split the account safely as well as protect icloud backed up data?
Use different Apple IDs for iMessage (and also FaceTime) to avoid getting each others text messages (and FaceTime calls). One of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (and Settings>FaceTime), tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. You can continue to shared the same ID for the iTunes store and other services.

Can anyone please help
Hi Pa23from Argyllshire,
This error: I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts, music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes should not occur.
The best guess is this crash is caused due to an issue with the PC.
Make sure your iPad is updated to the latest operating system: iOS 7.0.4 and make sure iTunes is updated to iTunes 11.
iTunes 11 is optimised for iOS 7, so if you have an iOS 7 device and non iTunes 11 computer, life would be hard.
Try to update iTunes to 11.1.3 from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Even try uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. iTunes will not lose any of your iTunes songs when your un-install it as iTunes stores every media item in a folder found in (or around): C:\Users\NAME\Music\iTunes
Obviously iTunes and iDevices work best using Mac iTunes however; iTunes 11 and iOS 7 iPad Mini should work fine.
In summary possible solutions:
1. Update iPad Mini to iOS 7 or better (iOS 7.0.4)
2. Update iTunes to iTunes 11.1.3
3. Restart both PC and iPad
4. Uninstall iTunes from PC
Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I look forward to hearing from you regarding this crash!

How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone 4 using iTunes 11?
How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone using iTunes 11?
If you manually manage music... on iTunes 11, go to the top left corner and there will be a pull down bar. Click "show menu bar". From there, go to view, then show sidebar. Magically, it looks like the previous versions of iTunes. Took me 3 hours of trial and error and searching through forums to figure out. Tried calling Apple to have them walk me through it and they said they wouldn't help me since I don't have Apple Care. Whatever. Hope this helps!!

how can i transfer my calendar on my iphone to my PC? I have downloaded icloud and itunes. My contacts on my iphone have been transferred but not my calendar.
Did you fail to maintain a backup copy?
If so, then you can buy a third party program to extract the music not purchased from itunes.
Itunes purchases can be transferred to your computer: File>Transfer Purchases. -
My wife and I have been texting on our iPhones. All of the sudden all messages are being sent as text. We cannot seem to make the iMessage work. Any ideas?
Your question is almost too much a personal one, begging the question "do we (husband and wife) feel comfy sharing one account on the Mac" maybe thats why nobody answered you.
It doesnt complicate anything, but it adds steps for switching accounts on the Mac/ purchases etc. of course
since your question is mostly personal, ..I wont answer THAT part of it, but creating a new account is easy.....messing with switching back and forth is also a personal preference 'issue' as well. I prefer to keep things simple, but...........you and yours, I dont know.......
