My husband and I are receiving each other's text messages how do I stop this?

If that is the problem, how do I change it so she has her own Apple account if she already activated her device? Is there a way to remove my account and make her a new one on the device itself if it was activated incorrectly:??

My wife and I have iPhones and are receiving each other's text messages. How can we stop this from happening? Is this an Apple ID problem?

Settings / Messages
on setting Send &Receive, deselect the other spouses email address.
You are sharing ring the same AppleID which is designed for 1 person.

HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password. Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts. How can we stop this happening?

A couple of different approached:
Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

My wife and I are both Family Sharing Organizers of each other's group! How do I stop this and have me as the only Family Member Organizer with my wife as a member of my group?

This new Family Sharing idea is great on the surface, but without some management tools to fix problems its worthless. Case in point - somehow, when my wife and I upgraded our iPads to 8.0.2, I decided to become the organizer, since my Apple ID is the one that does all the purchases. But somehow, while I was setting up my wife's Apple ID with iCloud (she was originally set up with my iCloud id), I became a part of her Family Sharing plan with *her* becoming the organizer. Now I'm the organizer on my iPad with her as a member, and she's the Family Sharing organizer on her iPad with me as a member!
I've tried everything, including erasing both iPads and even creating new Apple ids for the both of us, but both Family Sharing accounts just reappear out of nowhere when we reboot. Is there any way to get rid of both our Family Sharing accounts so we can start over again?
Thanks
MIke

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account. Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want. How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID?

Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID? If so, where do I need to change his email address info, so that his calender and contacts remain his? Thank you

You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours. If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for). You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.

When I'm on microsoft word and typing and get to the bottom of the page a new page doesn't just come up, i have to manually put it there so then when i go back and add stuff to the first page i loose whatever was at the bottom. how do i stop this?

When I'm on microsoft word on my macbook air and get to the bottom a the page, a new page does not come up. i have to manually insert one. so then when i go back to edit my work and add something in what ever was at the bottom of the page disappears. how can i stop this from happening or change it so a new page opens by itself?

It sounds like you have chosen a publishing template rather than a word processing template. There are two basic modes in MS Word: word processing and publishing layout. Word processing mode (and all word processing templates) have a continuous text box in the page for writing text. The publishing layout mode (and publishing templates) are documents that have text boxes placed for articles, titles, pictures, etc. Be sure to choose the word document template and you’ll get what you expect. Do not choose the word publishing document.

What IP does your iPad show as having?
Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network on your Mac will override the router settings. Try either of these;
OpenDNS
208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Google Public DNS
8.8.8.8. 8.8.4.4

I bought an HTC one 2/28/14. I had no trouble sending or receiving pictures with my texts. I had to update my phone 6/5/14 and since that time I cannot send or receive pictures in my texts. How can I fix that?

The thing is, before the update, I ALWAYS had my wifi on, and I had my mobile data off. Worked flawlessly until the update.

My daughter and I share our Verizon account and when she activated her phone, we started receiving all of each other's text messages. How do I stop this from happening?! It is creepy and we don't like it at all.

My daughter and I share the same Verizon account. When she activated her I Phone (which I also have an I Phone 5c) - we started receiving all of each other's text messages. I need your help as soon as possible to stop this. WE DO NOT WANT TO READ EACH OTHER'S TEXTS! Please HELP!

If that is the problem, how do I change it so she has her own Apple account if she already activated her device? Is there a way to remove my account and make her a new one on the device itself if it was activated incorrectly:??

TS2755 My husband and I have a linked apple account and i cloud. Now he is receiving all of my text messages. How can I fix it to where he only receives his messages and not mine? Any help is appreciated!

My husband and I both have iphones and both are linked to the app store and i cloud. Now my husband is receiving all of my text messages and has all my contacts. How can we get it to where he does not receive my messages anymore? Any help is appreciated!

Best way is to get your own Apple ID, but until then have him go to Settings > Message > Receive at and remove your phone number.

My daughter and I are receiving each others imessages. How do we fix this?

My daugher has a new iphone and i have an older one. Once she received this phone we started receiving each others texts. She has her own apple id and password seperate from mine and we thought we fixed the settings on the icloud and messages. All was good til just now i received a text on my phone that was just meant to be received on her phone. How do I fix the problem?

so click on "send & receive" and make sure my number is checked and make sure her email address is removed?
