My daughter and I both have an iPhone and some how we share an iCloud account and she's getting all my texts and contacts. I can't find where to uncheck her phone number on my phone account so she doesn't get all my texts and contacts. Please help
Hi Shellyk,
Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and make sure that only your personal email addresses are listed under the individual phone number.Remove the "shared" iCloud email address.
For the Contacts, if you are syncing them via iCloud and you both have the same iCloud account, you will both have the same Contact list.
Cheers,

I have icloud enabled on my iphone 4s and mac. All my events and contacts are duplicated. How do I correct this?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
The following article(s) may help you.
Resolving duplicate contacts -
We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music. However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE." I've also lost my notes but could not recover them even if I did a restore.
You can share the same iTunes ID on all your devices and still have different iCloud accounts with different IDs on them. The ID you use for iTunes does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
If you want to migrate your devices to separate accounts, on the devices that will be moving save any photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. Also email any synced notes to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account. Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, go to the iWork app settings and turn off iCloud syncing.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Once the phones are all on separate accounts you can then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account. -
All I want to do is share my calendar and contacts w/my other computer that a family member uses?
If you all log into iCloud with the same AppleID, then you can all have access to the same Contacts, Calendars, Mail, Notes, Safari Bookmarks. Or, you can only select some of those, but individualized iCloud email would not be possible. That's probably not really what you want to do, though.
You can also just share out your Calendars via iCloud, no need to use same AppleID. They can subscribe to them and I believe you can authorize them to make changes.
Looking at Contacts, it does look like you could create another iCloud account, independent of the iCloud account in the iCloud system prefs, but I don't have another to test at the moment. If that works for the Contacts, they would have their own set and yours too. -
No syncing of photos, calenders and contacts, only music and Podcasts
At first, syncing was no problem but now my 120 GB iPod Classic has decided to be a bit more selective of what it wants on the disc. Only Files that are stored over iTunes will be synced (Music, Podcasts). Photos, Calenders and Contacts won´t be synced anymore.
I get no errors while or after syncing the iPod. The settings for Photo, Calender an Contacts are set to sync all files. There are still 46 GB storage left on the iPod and i have just a small amount of photos, so this couldn´t be the problem.
I have also tried the "Restoring iPod to factory settings" function, but the problem remained and i also lost the photos that have been synced to the iPod when everything worked well.
I have OS 10.4.11 and all the Online Updates for my MacMini 1,42 GHz installed.When you connect the iPod to iTunes the Summary screen appears, but this only shows Sync options for music and videos. Notice the tabs at the top of the Summary screen. The photos are another tab (or pane) - the Photo one and the calendars and contacts options are on the Contacts pane.
I don't know about the Mac, but Windows updates to iTunes have been known to change the options, so if you have received an update, you need to check this.

TB v. 24.0, Win 7 Pro. Changed ISP's. I use Outlook 2007; wife uses TB, same box. Changed TB username & e-mail address in Server Settings & Outgoing Server & set as Default. Changed e-mail address in all address books and Contact lists. Now TB still showing old e-mail address in <From> when Reply or Forward. This is confusing recipients, who have been sending their replies off to a now-nonexistent account. Checked Windows Contacts - empty. Checked my Outlook 2007 - all Contacts changed appropriately. How do I kill that old e-mail address in TB when it isn't even listed any more - except when we try to Reply or Forward?
When you got the new email address and changed ISP's, you needed to create a new mail account for that new existing email address.
When a mail account is created there are many preferences setup to be able to manage and run that mail account. Trying to track down and modify all of those within the either the config editor or prefs.js is not only time consuming, but you could easily cause further problems if any error is made.
So I suggest you fix the original account by reentering all the old data. Then create a new mail account for the new exisitng mail address.
* File > New> Existing mail account.
or
* 3bar menu icon > New Message > Existing Mail account.
when you have both mail accounts in your left folder pane, you can choose to move any wanted emails from the older mail account into suitable folders in Local Folders. This will save a copy of emails.
Then you can delete the old account, leaving saved emails in Local Folders and only one new mail account.
To remove mail account:
* Tools > Account sEttings
* select old mail account
* click on 'Account Actions'
* select 'Remove Account'
* click on OK -
I just backed up my 3gs iphone using itunes. All my photos and contacts have disappeared from my phone. I am unable to locate them on my computer. HELP!!!
OK, I understand. Try this ... it's much safer. It will simply restore your backup, but not do anything to your iOS:
While your iPhone is plugged in to iTunes, right click on the iPhone icon on the left side of the iTunes display.
Choose "Restore from backup ..." from the pop-up menu that appears.
Again, what this will do is place that backup back on your iPhone without changing iOS. So you should be very confident in the backup contents before doing this. -
How do I change the phone number attached to my Icloud? All the codes and stuff are being sent to my old number.
Hello Babyygrl23,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like your iCloud Apple ID has a phone number associated with it that you would like to update. If this is the case, after signing in to the linked website below, you will see a section on the left side of the screen labeled Phone Numbers. You can edit the phone number associated with that account from there.

If you have a back up in iTunes, you can restore from that back up. The article below will assist with getting that backup restored.

I just restored my iphone4 in iTunes ( after not syncing it for about three months) and it wiped all my texts and contacts and I think restored it to three months ago. It seems it erased all texts and recent contacts since three months. Any way of undoing this? thanks in advance, Greg
Only if you have a more recent backup with which to restore from - if you've only got the one from 3 months ago then you will be limited to what was on that.

Use your backup copy of your old computer to put everything on your new computer, then sync the iphone to that comptuer.

So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?
If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

I lost all calendar events and contacts during iTunes backup
i lost all calendar events and contacts during iTunes backup
I think my wife had an old apple ID on the phone and never backs up her device. She lost all contacts and calendar events. any help?It would default to whatever account you have set for default. If you were using Exchange, it would sync to that. However, the settings for syncing are set up in iTunes. You would need to check to see what settings were in iTunes for syncing the information. It could be a supported application on the computer, or a cloud service as I said earlier.
On my personal phone, it will default to my iPhone calendar which I sync with Outlook on my computer. I can select the Exchange account if I want, but my default is what I sync with Outlook.
