How to i stop messages from my phone to be copied on my laptop?

All of my iphone text messages are immediately copied onto my laptop for viewing. I would like to disable this as other people use my computer and I would like to keep my messages private.

On your Mac open Messages.
From the Messages menu bar click Messages > Preferences then select the Accounts tab then select the Settings tab.
Deselect:  Enable this account

    How do I stop Iphoto from launching itself every time I use my laptop?

    Some possibilities:
    Right click on the iPhoto icon in the Dock. Is Open at Log In Selected?
    Check your System Preferences -> Accounts -> Log In Items
    Is there a camera or anything that your Mac might think is a camera (flash drive, USB Hard Disk formatted to a FAT format, phone) attached to your Mac. If so, disconnect it. If you don't want to disconnect it, set iPhoto to "Do Nothing" when a camera is attached. You do this in the iPhoto Preferences.

  • In mail how do I stop messages from the same sender from showing up when I select the most recent message from a sender?

    on my iMac, when I view messages there is a grey number at the top of the message. This number denotes the amount of  messages from that sender and when I view the most recent message in my mailbox (from that sender) all of the older messages load with it and this takes a while for the message to become moarked as "read." I know that I can turn this off because I have mountain lion on my air and i do not have this issue. how can i turn it off?
    thanks

    thanks so much, that fixed it! before I posted this quiestions I kept looking in the mail preferences but I dind't think to look on the View menu.

  • HT204053 how do we stop Messages from sending to 2 phones

    I am having diffuctly trying to figure out why me and my daughter are sharing same message
    I send a text and then it sends to her phone as well and sends back to my phone

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    it can be resolved by making sure you each have different information in settings > messages > send and receive, however you would be much better each having your own iCloud account.

  • How can I block messages from my phone to my boys iPod I don't want my ex wife seeing my messages thanks

    Can I have two Apple ID using one email address thanks

    Is your ex using your AppleID also?
    If so, change your AppleID password.
    She will be prompted for the new password. Don't give it to her.
    Or maybe the kids are using her AppleID?
    They could get a new AppleID and use that instead of her AppleID.

  • How do I stop fonts from changing when I drag/copy a text box to a new document?

    I am using Mac OS X version 10.7.5 with CS6 version 8.0. When I create an ad in indesign and copy it or drag it onto another page (the finished layout page for a newspaper) Some of the fonts that are enabled in my suitcase, show as if they are not found when dragged to the new document. When i use "find font" and replace the "missing" font with the exact same one it was built with (in the other document) it comes in slightly different, and needs some adjusting. I deal with many ads and bringing them together to build many collective pages. How can I transfer my individual ad pages to my collective layout pages without having issues with font? I would like to still be able to edit the ad on the (collective) page, so placing a PDF or ID doc is not an option.
    Please help! this is slowing down production and proving very frustrating!
    Thanks in advance.

    Do you use styles in these ads? Same named styles inthe receiving document with different definitions (or same named styles with differnt defintions used as the basis for other styles) can cause this. Another possibility is moving an element from a file saved in a previous version of ID into a newer version document. Legacy text frames are not recomposed until you try to edit them.

  • How do I stop Dreamweaver from updating the Test server copy of a file when I open the local file?

    The subject says it all. Every time I open a file, Dreamweaver connects to the testing server and uploads the local file to the test server.
    I want to stop this behaviour.  It's annoying!

    My testing server is IIS running on my local machine.
    The "local" copy of the file is actually on a remote share.  I have the test server copy open in Notepad++.  The two files are identical save for on extra line in the copy on the testing server.  When I open the "local" copy in Dreamweaver, it shows me that some file activity is being done, and then Notepad++ tells me the file has changed and do I want to reload it.  If I do, that extra line vanishes.
    When I check the file activity log, it shows that the file activity is complete.
    I haven't mentioned the production server because it doesn't seem to be affected, but we do have one.

  • Tried to connect my messages from my phone to my macbook, but the accounts tab under preferences won't let me type in my Apple ID and I can't save, cancel, or exit out of the window

    I just got a new MacBook Pro today. My friend explained to me how to connect my messaged from my phone to my Mac, since they weren't connected yet. I opened Messages > Preferences > Accounts. My Apple ID and account info was already there and it was enabled, but the messages still weren't syncing, so I disabled it and tried to add the account again. I went to put in my account info, but I realized there was no space to put in my Apple ID, even though it said to. I typed in my first and last name, password and country, but when I clicked "save" nothing happened. The section that asked my ID, name and password disappeared, the "save" button keeps flashing, and I can't "cancel" or exit out of the window. If I press "cancel", an alert message appears but all it says is "(null)". How can I fix this so that I can exit out of it? It won't let me shut down because of this.

    It will only sync with new messages received after Mac's Messages is configured and running.
    It will not synced old messages.

  • How do I stop msging from adding a "1" to a 10 digit number?

    How do I stop messaging from adding a 1 to a 10 digit number?

    It is clean, I set up the contacts card, and reentered the 10 digit number after the second fail message.
    I entered: xxxxxxxxxx  and the display on my contact card is (xxx) xxx-xxxx.
    Might the carrier-provider be the issue?
    Thank-you.
