  • How can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

    how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

    No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
    Look at this very informative video for the instructions.

  • Need Help Understanding How To Use iMessage Between Two iPhones

    I have an iPhone 4 and my wife an iPhone 3GS.  We both have iOS 5, but I have discovered something about iMessage I need to make sure I understand correctly.  As I understand it iMessage can send text even if our voice carrier service is unavailable.  I tend to loose signal inside the building I work in.  I usually can get texts in and out, but sometimes not.  But in testing the two phones sending iMessages, I've noticed is that if I have one of the phones with iMessage turned on and the other with iMessage turned off, the two phones will not be able to exchange text.  Is that how it's supposed to work?  Even though one of these phones can receive an iMessage doesn't mean the other one send one back.  Can't the system detect when one phone is connected and another one not, and the one that is not gets sent SMS messages instead?  I don't want to try to send my wife an iMessage because I can't get a voice signal in my building, but her have iMessages turned off and not able to get any messages from me, iMessage or SMS.  I guess I need help better understanding how this actually works between the two phones so I can always get texts back and forth between my wife and I.  My other misgiving is that this iMessage thing consumes my data limit.  My wife gets unlimited because she had her phone before the limits were imposed, but I got on board after, so I am hesitant to use iMessage all the time because of it.  I have no intention to send picture mail through iMessage, but the thing is if I wanted to switch to SMS to send picture mail to save data, but my wife's phone is set to iMessage, she won't get it.  If this is how this thing is supposed to work, I'm not really impressed.  Some insight would be appreciated

    I think you are making this way too complicated. Why are you turning iMessage off? If you are at your office connect to the WiFi there and send your wife messages that way (unless your office is blocking the port iMessage uses). When possible the two phones will use iMessage but will revert to SMS is iMessage is not available if that option is set that way.
    I would not worry about using up your data plan if you have the 2GB, text iMessages are going to be very small and MMS (picture) ones are not very large either. Unless you are sending hundreds of picture iMessages a day you will have a hard time using up your data.
    If you are near an Apple Store you should explore signing up for an intro iPhone course and have them run through iMessage options.

  • How can I sync iMessage between my iPhone and iPad

    Hello all, I have a firtst gen iPad (running iOS5.1.1). I using my Apple ID to run iMessege on it. Recently, I bought iPhone 5 (2 month ago) running iOS 6.1.3. I sing up to iMessage using Apple ID but start new converstion from my phone number as caller ID. Somehow only 1 conversion syncs between my iPhone and my iPad. Recently it stop. So I start looking for answers. I want to sync my all converstions, I found that I can set phone number as Caller ID on an iPad but I can't found how. I will apreciate if anyone will put some light on how iMessage works.
    I still want that my caller ID will be my phone number cause I don't want to make 2 separte thread on the one who get my message.
    If I set my email as caller ID so when I'll send a text message from my phone it will make a seperate thread converstion from me on the device of the person I send the text to.

  • How do you fix iMessage between two iPhones if both aren't working?

    iMessage has gone out between my iPhone 5 and someone's iPhone 4 or 4s. We don't know how to fix it. We have tried reset things, delete things and nothing works

    Try a reset or restart of the devices.
    If iMessage still is not available, turn iMessage off and back on.  Do this on both devices.

  • I have an ipad mini. I do not have an iphone or a mac. I want to add my friend's telephone number (she has an iphone) to my contacts so we can use imessage between her iphone and my ipad. How do I do this?

    How do I add a friend's phone number for messaging on my ipad? I do not have an iphone.

    Hi
    To enable imessage on ipad check that imessage is enabled in settings>messages but note that any message that you send from your ipad will be from your email address as you dont have a mobile number linked to imessage.
    With everything enabed you should just be able to add contact into your contact list and then message them from there
    Hope this helps

  • How do i use iMessage on 2 iPhones?

    I have 2 iphone 6's (work and personal).  I want iMessages to be mirrored on both phones.  I have 1 apple ID on both and both phone numbers listed on both, so 2 phone numbers and 1 apple id on each.  I am not using forwarding.  It works great for a few days but eventually iMessage hangs up and i eventually have to shut down the phone and turn iMessage back on.  When is gets hung up, i can't even turn iMessage back on.  it seemed to work fine for a while, so not sure why it stopped.  anyone now the proper way to set this up?

    i think the difference is i have both numbers checked, so both phones will get the same messages if either number gets a text or iMessage.  i suspect thats the conflict.  the phone doesn't lock-up, just iMessage does.  i was going t try the text message forwarding feature, but someone at an apple store said the text forwarding feature in iMessage is only for phones to forward to non-phone devices, but i may test that out to see if i get a different result.  this has worked ok for a few years and recently stopped working - wonder if it's iOS8.2....

  • I am trying to figure out how I can have a "main" itunes account for all purchases, but have seperate accounts for my children so they can use iMessage and other features of iPod touch. Also, they would be able to download free items.

    Can you have one install of iTunes on a PC or Mac, but have multiple Apple IDs tied to it?

    You can't have multiple IDs associated with an itunes account, but you can have one ID one 1 device and another one, but currently its impossible to merge accounts.

  • Can I share the App's in iTunes between my iPhone and iPod Touch?

    I have an iPhone and I am getting a Touch for my daughter. If I have her set up as a different user on my pc and the iTunes library is shared so we can share the music and not mess up each other’s play lists and ratings can we also share the App’s (paid and/or free)? Thanks, Robert

    That is good and thank you.
    When my app's are in iTunes under my user on the pc if I go to her user on the pc will the app's just be there or will I have to do something to get them in her iTunes? With music when in her user I just drag them from the music folder under my name into the iTunes that is open under her user and they are load. Is it the same for the app's or not? Thanks, Robert

    Using FaceTime between 2 iPhone 4s I can hear the other person but we only see ourselves, how do we see the other person

    Once the connection is made you should automatically see the other person full screen, with a small inset picture of yourself.  Normally you only see yourself full screen after you initiate the call prior to the other person accepting it.  Are you both connected to wi-fi and are you initiating the call by tapping the FaceTime button on the other person's contact?

    My daughter is currently using my Apple ID with her ipod touch.  I will be upgrading her to an iPhone 4S and would like to use a different Apple ID and a new computer and still keep all the current music and Apps that she has now.  How do I do this?

    Use your ID on her iPhone 4S for iTunes and App Stores.
    Sign in with your Apple ID on iTunes Store (on iTunes app of her new computer)
    Authorize her new computer with your Apple ID in iTunes (iTunes menu>Store>Authorize this Computer)
    Check "Share my Library on my Local Network" in iTunes Preferences in your and her computer
    Sign in Home Sharing of her iTunes with your Apple ID.
    Copy all the Music she wants from the old computer to the new one. (Must be on the same network)
    Copy all the apps she wants from the old computer to the new one. (Must be on the same network)
    Export all playlist as xml files from the old computer to the new one.(right click on the playlist to export and "File>Library>Import Playlist to Import)
    Sync her iPhone 4S with all content she wants from her new computer (all data from the old computer will be deleted)
    Are you sharing Contacts or other data from iCloud?
    Be careful or ask for help about moving from iCloud account to another one.

  • How can I use FaceTime between 2 I-Pads sharing the same email account

    How can I use FaceTime between 2 I-Pads sharing the same email address

    Cstearns-
    I only have one iPad, but was able to add myself to the list of Favorites.  When I tried to call, I was not available!
    You should also take a look at the Skype App for iPhone.  It works on the iPad, where you can choose 2X to expand the display.  I haven't tried to add myself to Skype, but have been able to have it connected on both my computer and the iPad at the same time.
    You might also consider getting a second address from G-Mail, just for use with FaceTime.

  • Why won't iMessage send from my iPad to a contact who has an iPhone and uses iMessage on her iPhone?

    Sometimes when I'm using my iPad and I want to send a message via iMessage it won't let me. This happens even when I know that the recipient has an iPhone and uses the iMessage app on her iPhone. Why is that? I can use iMessage from my iPhone and it will go to her iPhone. Why can't it work from my iPad.?
