I updated my spouses iphone with the same apple id, now he is recieving my texts. how do i change without loosing his data?

I updated my spouses phone using the same apple id. I must have clicked ok to something i shouldnt have at some point.....because now he is recieving my texts! I still recieve my texts, but he also recieves them.
I went to restore his phone but it said it would only restore to factory settings and i dont want to loose the data.
How do i solve this?

Try settings, messages, tap on send & receive, there should be phone number options to choose from...uncheck your phone number.
This is an added feature to allow a user to see messages across multiple platforms like your iPad and iPhone.

  • 2 iphone 5 accidently with the same Apple Id and password, for i cloud.  How do I change one of them ?

    My wife up graded her I phone to an I phone 5 and I just recently got a new Iphone 5 .  when I put my apple ID into icloud I used my email address as my ID and one of my passwords.  What I did not know is that my wife used my email and the same password for her Apple Id in her phone for I cloud.  Now when we sinc our phones the contacts and information gets combined.   I have been unable to find a way to change her Apple Id to her email address and also change her password.  If she could do this on her phone it would solve our problem.   If anyone out there can help me do this I would appreciate it.  Thanks

  • HT4314 I have a iPad and iPhone with the same Apple ID, but on Game Center I have used the same id for both devices and they are two different profiles and I was wondering how to have one of the accounts on both devices.

    Hi Jamesdwills,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
    Check out this information from the iPad User Guide.  Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:

    Game Center settings
    Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
    Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
    Allow invites
    Let nearby players find you
    Edit your Game Center profile (tap your nickname)
    Get friend recommendations from Contacts or Facebook
    Specify which notifications you want for Game Center. Go to Settings > Notifications > Game Center. If Game Center doesn’t appear, turn on Notifications.
    Change restrictions for Game Center. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • TS4268 I can't activate FaceTime & iMessage on my iPad ... Would this have anything to do with already having these set up on my iPhone with the same apple ID?

    I can't activate FaceTime & iMessage on my iPad ... Would this have anything to do with already having these set up on my iPhone with the same apple ID?

    As long as you're logged into the same AppleID on both devices, this is not a problem.  It's only a problem if you're logged into a different AppleID and then try to associate FaceTime with an email that tied to the other AppleID.

  • HT5622 We have two iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself

    My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

    You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

  • HT2693 How to download pictures from multiple iPhones with the same Apple ID?

    I have multiple iPhones (e.g. iPhone 4S, iPhone 5) registered under the same Apple ID however i only manage to download the pictures in my iPhone 5 via iCloud.
    How do I retrieve the remaining photos that was uploaded to iCloud previously from my older iPhones with the same Apple ID?
    Pls help!!!

    Hi edristiew,
    Are the photos that you are referring to still in Photo Stream? Remember, Photo Stream has limits which are outlined in this article:
    iCloud: Photo Stream limits
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858
    If the photos are still stored in Photo Stream, this resource may answer your questions about how to extract them (Mac or PC):

    If the photos are no longer in Photo Stream, but are in your camera roll, you can import them to your computer:

  • Can I set 2 iphones with the same Apple acount

  • We just got 2 iPad air today and Set up both with the same Apple ID, now I'm getting messages and FaceTime for my 13 yr old daughter.  Do I have to create a different Apple ID for her?

    We just got 2 iPad air today and Set up both with the same Apple ID, now I'm getting FaceTime and messages for my 12 yr. old.  Do I have to set up a separate Apple ID  for her to avoid this?

    It's a trust issue. You can set them up so you don't receive each other's messages as long as you each have your own email address.
    The trust issue is the fact that either of you can change the separation at any time via Settings by checking the appropriate (inappropriate?) email address.
    To be absolutely sure you can never receive each other's messages will require two Apple IDs.

  • I have to iphones with the same apple id so when we loaded icloud and deleted contacts of one it deleted of both is any way to get those contacts back

    how do i get deleted contacts back ? I just added icloud to two phones with the same apple id

    You may have to restore to your latest sync. That's my only solution to your problem. If this didn't help, then I suggest you to visit the closest Apple store and get Genius for help.

Any help? Thanks.

  • Separate "iMessage accounts" on two iPhones with the same Apple ID

    I have two iPhone 4 handsets. One is for work and one is my private number. Currently I am using the same Apple ID on both phones, as I want to use the apps I've purchased on both devices and get my contacts from iCloud.
    As I usually bring both handsets with me, it is annoying to receive the same iMessage to both phones. Is there anyway to create two separate "iMessage accounts" such that I can use iMessage on both phones, but messages sent to my work phone will only be received on my work phone, and similarly, the iMessages sent to my private phone will only be received on my private phone?

    Sure, just create another Apple ID & use that for iMessage:
