Imessage on iphone and ipad
Hi all,
I've got a question regarding imessage. I've used imessage on both my iPhone 4 and iPad 3 (wifi only) for a while. I received messages on both iPhone and iPad.
Since last week however, the imessage only goes to the iPad and not the iPhone. When I manually open the message center they are visible, but there is no notification of any sort (visual, sound).
I've tried logging out from apple id on imessage and ipad, but still have the problem.
The only thing that I can see that is different on both devices is that, when activating imessage again, on my iPad it said 'reveiving messages on phone number and email address' and iPhone it only said 'receiving on email adress'.
Looking at the settings, both devices are logged in via apple id.
the 'you are available' part both mentions my phone number and email address - however, on my iPhone, the phone number is grey. Both the email address and phone number on both devices are marked.
New conversations are, on both devices, started from my phone number.
So no difference in settings.
However, when someone sends me an imessage, the iPad plays a sound and displays the new message, while the iPhone stays silent. Very annoying since I only have my iPhone with me during the day and therefore missing messages.
Anyone any suggestions on solving this issue?
Thanks so much!
Jorien

How to sync iMessage on iphone and iPad?
I want to sync my iMessage between my iPhone and iPad. How do I do this?
Also, is there a way I can sync all of the conversations made on the iPad to the iPhone, but not sync conversations made on the iPhone to the iPad? I sometime share my iPad with my family and don't want anyone reading my conversations when i am on my iphone. But I am the only one who uses iMessage on the iPad so I won't have a problem With the conversations on the iPad being sent to my iPhone.

Receiving iMessages on iPhone and iPad
All of my messages used to go to both my iPhone and iPad. Now new incoming iMessages are only going to my iPhone. If I originate an iMessage on my iPad the reply will only go to my iPad. If someone originates a IMessage to me it will only go to my iPhone. I can't figure out what's happening. It used to work fine.
Hello paquesttesa,
I'd recommend taking a look through the following article for some useful troubleshooting steps.

Used to be able get iMessages with iPhone and iPad. Cannot register # or email.
I used to be able to get iMessages using either my phone number or email address besides the me.com one. Now I can't and it won't verify them. I am not even given the choice to add my phone number as on my wife's phone. It keeps telling me I have to register my phone number and email addresses.
Then when I attempt to I am told I need to put in a "code" sent to me on the iPad but have no clue where to look for that code. Nothing shows up in Messages or an email.
HELP!! My wife's iPhone 6, bought and set up the same time, works fine.
Using Yosemite and iOS X latest versions of each. Verizon service.Hi NeddafromFl,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are trying to use a phone nnumber and email address to use Messages. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Using imessage on iphone and ipad
Hi I seem to have a problem using imessage. If a new message lands (fro unknown reasons) on my ipad mini, it does not appear in my iphone.
How can I have messages appear in all devices?
thanksAssuming you use the same iCloud account for all devices, check the following on each device:
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached at > enable the phone number and email addresses you use.. -
Hi All, I am using iphone in UAE and ipad in India usinging same apple id. Earlier I could do imessage to my Ipad with different name but with software update,I am unable to do, as signing id for the iphone and ipad is same.How to restore back
I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
Hope that helps -
Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services simultaneously on two different devices - iPhone and iPad? It seems those are competing to each other, and the services work on one of them only (iPhone).
Many thanks, Sir! Both are mine and it's good to know that imessage can work on both with the same Apple ID. Will now have to find out why imessage stopped working on iPad when it started on iPhone (new). After exploring the forum I understand that there may be plenty of reasons why imessage does not work, even though it worked previously on the same device with the same ID.

I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID. Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand.
Is it possible to differentiate between all the devices?Can I fix this problem?I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases. -
I reset network settings on my iPhone. However now it looks as if my iPhone and iPad are no longer linked. They are both connected to my apple account but when I send an imessage from one it is not picked up by the other. What do I do? If anyone can help it would be very much appreciated. Many thanks x
Check Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on both your iPhone and your iPad to make sure that the following are all true:
(1) you have selected the same Apple ID on both devices,
(2) you have the same entries checked under "You can be reached by iMessage at:" on both devices,
(3) you have the same entry checked under "Start new conversations from:" on both devices,
and
(4) that the entry checked in #3 is one of those checked in #2 on both devices.
When you say it has affected your iCloud account, what effect has it had? -
IPhone and iPad iMessage issues...
I'm having a bit of an issue here and I assume it's on my end. Out of the blue, and only with particular contacts, a handful, when I message them my message goes through as an iMessage however they can only respond as a text. This happens on my iPhone and iPad. However, if I send using a default email to start the conversation, it works fine. So it's just with my phone number. Everyone else in my address book who has iMessage has absolutely no issues with this. I am at a loss. Myself and the people who this is happening to has turned off and on iMessage, restarted our devices, reset some settings, deleted the contact info and added new and nothing seems to work. If anyone has any ideas, I would be very appreciative of it.
Thank you.Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.

I am having trouble getting my iPhone and iPad to sync in my iMessage app. I tried plugging them into my computer to iTunes and re-booting they did before and now the iMessage win't sync. Any suggestions?
Sounds like you may need to re-download the entire albums from iTunes. See this KB article for how to download past purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
I'd suggest doing it one album at a time. Delete one, download it from your purchase histor, then the next, etc. -
How do i set up imessage on my mac so that i can sync them on my iphone and ipad
how do i set up imessage on my mac so that i can sync them on my iphone and ipad?
Messages requires Mountain Lion (10.8), or higher. The beta version for Lion expired almost a year ago.
Lion still uses iChat. -
Why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad
why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad same with face time
I looked into your question and believe I may have a solution for you.
Your iMessages likely aren't syncing because of a bug in iOS 5. Syncing iMessages between iOS devices is supposed to happen automatically, but sometimes it does not.
You could likely manually activate syncing by navigating to Setttings --> Messages --> Receive At --> Caller ID on both your iPad and iPhone and selecting your Apple ID.

My iMessage will not register that I have a phone number attached to the account on my mac. It only shows the email addresses. My iPhone and iPad work perfectly.
Hi Aurion23,
If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:
