HT201303 FaceTime is now using my Apple ID for an iPhone I don't have.

I just got a message on my iPhone 5 and iPad 3, that "iPhone" is now using my Apple ID for FaceTime. The problem  is, that I don't have a device named "iPhone" (other than my original iPhone, which doesn't have FaceTime) and I didn't initiate anything that would've prompted this.  All my iPhones/iPads have my initials in them (i.e. "BS iPhone 5").  Why did I get this message, and where did it come from?  I wasn't doing anything FaceTime related on any of the devices when i got it.  Can somebody gain access to my FaceTime on my devices without my password, and if so can they really do anything with it?
Thanks for any advice...

If we are talking about Activation Lock you will have to have him remove the device from his account at icloud.com

    HI
    I was trying to take my Mac air to factory default settings.
    I've done all that it says in the documment i was following, and them during the process it asked me the APPLE ID.
    I put the apple id i have in my iphone. But it's not the one... it's said that i don't have any OSX associated with it... so it can not install the OSX.
    So what can i do?

  • Can I use my apple ID for my Iphone

    Can I use my apple id for my itunes shop?

    Unless there is a problem with your Apple ID that you are not stating... Then the answer is Yes.

  • Should i use different apple id for my new ipad? i have already an iphone

    can i have different apple ids for different devices?

    You can have different Apple IDs on different devices but this is probably not a good idea.

  • How can I share an Apple ID with my wife or Can I use one Apple ID for two iPhones?

    My wife got her iPhone 4 before I got my iPhone 4s. To make things easier, I allowed her to use my Apple ID and iTunes to sync/backup her iPhone.  Now that I have an iPhone 4s... I would like to keep sharing the Apple ID and its associated content (be it apps, music, etc) but I would like our contacts and other individuals items to be kept separate.  What is the best solution for this situation?  Ultimately I want to avoid having to make yet another iTunes account/Apple ID and because we are married we share everything already.  Thanks for the help!

    Thanks.  I was afraid it would be something like that.  I bought it off my NIH grant from Apple, so there is no problem proving ownership.  Since I can easily live without iPhoto and iMovie on that computer, I probably won't bother, unless it prevents me from updating the OS when 10.9 comes out.  The strange thing is I can update stuff like Xcode (which I absolutely need) without a problem.  It appears to be just the apps that Apple both sells and provides with a new computer

  • HT204053 My new macbook won't let me sync my apple account because it says it's active on 5 devices already. This is incorrect/I only have ever used this apple ID for my iPhone. What do I do?

    Help

    Sorry, but you can't delete an account. If you can't use the Apple ID as is for your daughter, you'll need to get up another email address if you want to create a new Apple ID. There are a number of places where you can create a free email account which you can use, including Apple's own iCloud service. You don't have to actually use that email account for anything; you can include a different email address to which Apple will send receipts, etc.
    Regards.

  • Why doesn't it say none when I am setting up my apple id for billing because I don't have a credit card or gift card at the moment

    why doesn't it say nome on billing when creating an Apple ID because I don't have a credit card or gift card

    Hello Lai5c,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to create a new Apple ID with no credit card attached. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
    Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method - Apple Support
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information? - Apple Support
    If you're using the store for the first time with an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method. After you create the account, you can change your payment information to None.
    If you're creating a new Apple ID, you might be able to create an account without entering your credit card details.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • I just started migrating from my old iMac to my new one, both intel based. I am using my wireless system for this. I don't have many files, photos, etc, yet it says it's going to take 11 hours. Is this normal?

    I am using the migration assistant over a cable modem wifi network. I don't have many files or photos, yet it is saying 11 hours remaining. Is this the norm, and how can I speed this up. Thanks

    A FireWire connection would be much faster than your network connection.

  • HT204053 Was using same apple ID for two iPhones. Just got new Apple ID for second phone.. Now how do I get new iCloud account

    How do I set up my iCloud account on this phone

    You turn off data syncing with the current account, then delete it from you phone, then set up the new account and migrate your data to the new account.  On the phone that will be getting the new acount, start by going to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from his phone, not from iCloud.  The other phone will not be effected by this.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account on this phone using your new Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.

  • HT5622 can I use one apple ID for both iPhone and iPad?

    hello, i just bought a new ipad and want to use the same apple ID that i used in my iphone. is it possible?
    thank you for helping me

    Philly_Phan is absolutely right if you intend to be the primary user of both devices. Is that the case or will one of the devices be used by someone else with whom you want to communicate over Facetime and iMessage?

  • I'm using Photoshop CC and for some reason i don't  have a browse in mini bridge, help!

    Does anyone no ho you get the Browse in mini bridge icon so i can drag and drop images without having to browse in bridge for them

    As of CC 2014 the mini bridge has been removed. You can install the previous version if you would like to use it.
    Or just have the full version of bridge running in the background, and switch between the two programs. Bridge would have been running for mini bridge to work anyways.

    That only applies if you turn on Automatic Downloads or iTunes match.
    To the OP, you can ignore Philo124's post.
    No, it Applies if you download content from one then switch to another and download content from the other. Automatically or not.

  • I used my apple ID for my daughters new iPod and now we have the same number! Please help

    I just started up my daughters new iPod and use my apple id and now we have the same number! How do I change this on my daughters iPod? I want her to be able to use my apple ID but I'd like her to have her own number... Is this possible?

    Create a new ID for her:
    On the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
    Continue to use the common ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores.
