IPhone 4S text goes to unintended recipient

Yesterday I sent an email to someone who received it as a text. The same message went to a third person in her address book but not on mine; and is not someone I know. Unintended recipients.
Today another text to a different person using my iPhone 4S ( different iPhone since I changed it yesterday due to an upgrade and after the above incident ) went to the intended recipient AND to her daughter who has an iphone 4. The daughter is not on my contact list either--unintended recipient.
I have serious concerns about privacy given this. I spoke to another individual who is having the same issues. In her case the text went to TWO unintended recipients.
Why is this happening and what can be done to rectify this. I am in the medical field and use this phone for work. Obviously this could be a big problem.

Check to see if DND is turned on. If it is, turn it off. If that's not the problem, contact your carrier.

Regarding text messaging, if I send a message from my iPhone, the reply goes to my ipad, or mini ipad. How can I fix this?

Regarding text messaging, if I send a message from my iPhone, the reply goes to my ipad, or mini ipad. How can I stop this from happening?

Go to Settings/ Messaging/ Send & Receive on each device to set the contact points to be reached at, and to set the "from" address when you start a new message. It sounds like your iPhone might be sending messages out as one thing (e.g. an iCloud address) but set to not receive replies only to your phone number. Make sure you review settings on each device since you may, or may not, want to have them common.

HT3529 my iphone just stop connecting to my wifi and i have tried all the recommended troubleshooting with no success. Also when i send a text , it shows it coming from my email address instead of my cell #. i cant get a text going to my cell #. help

my iphone just stopped connecting to my wifi and i have tried all the recommended troubleshooting with no success. Also when i send a text , it shows it coming from my email address instead of my cell #. i dont receive any text going to my cell #. help

If i understand what you are saying then you are seeing the WiFi indicator after connecting but Apps are saying that they are not connected to the internet?
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be to restart your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

I got iphone somone did text on my fone and same text goes on my wife.s fone how

hi i got iphone somone did text and same text goes on my wife,s fone

Hello junaidsaleem,
This is typically caused by both devices sharing an Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime. I would recommend signing out of iMessage on your wife's device. Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out. Then sign in with the desired Apple ID.

Error Message Xfinity Connect iPhone 4 Text messaging

I cannot send and apparently cannot receive text messages using the Xfinity Connect app. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app. The Voice2go function works great. When I try to send a text, I receive the following message, “We cannot find your text messages. Please check back later. Logging out and back in to the app may resolve the issue. If the problem persists, please contact Customer Care through the help section in Settings or call 1-800-COMCAST.” Any suggestions?

Take it to a VZ store (or call CS) to get assistance. Can't advise you on jailbreaking...and chances are your post will be edited because of the mention. As far as the texting goes...is it doing this with every number you try to text? Is it only certain numbers? Have you tried resetting your iPhone to see if that helps? Restoring? *228 option 2? Those are the first things that will likely be done wihen talking to a tech support person...so you might want to try those things first. Now if it's only certain numbers that this is occurring with...is it possible that the number you are texting is disconnected? I know (now) that if it's a VZ customer and their phone is disconnected (even temporarily) that any attempts at texting them will give you the red error on your end. Of course, this might not be the issue in your case but any possibility doesn't hurt being mentioned.

Do you still have the iphone? I know this has been an issue with phones that were lost or stolen, but if you still have your iphone try going into settings on that iphone and turn off imessage. See if that helps,certainly cannot do any harm.

i tried to up date my i phone 4 to iOS 5 then it wiped my phone and now it tells me to connect to iTunes and that the iPhone is in recovery mode and when i connect it goes to preparing to install to iPhone but never goes any further how do i restore the phone

by reset option do you mean the DFU restore? worked for me, have you tried that?
if not - hold the lock and home button until the power down bar comes up. then hold the lock button for ten seconds - next continue to hold the lock button and press the home button for ten seconds - next release the lock button and hold the home button for 10 seconds. this should be done with the phone tethered. If done right and your itunes is configured as such, the phone will reload the drivers and start up itunes, and then prompt for a restore/update.

InDesign Help - eps file text going transparent.

I am building a business card for a client and they provided me with an .eps logo. In the logo there is a white script font along the bottom of it with their saying. I place this into inDesign and everything looks fine until i .pdf the file and the text goes transparent so only the drop shadows on the letters are visible.
- I have tried going into the eps and the text is already converted to curves so it can't be a font problem.
- I changed the color of the text from white to 1% black thinking maybe the eps was dropping the color but i get the same results, even when i changed it to a hot pink as a test (same problem just a transparent pink).
- I tried saving the file as an .ai file and bringing it in and I get the same problem.
All of us in the art room have never seen this from the new CS3 lineup before and we are stumped. If you can come up with any suggestions on how to solve this it would be appreciated, The client needs their cards soon and I can't give them this without that line of script.

The white is set to overprint. Open it in Illustrator and fix it. While
you're at it resave it as a AI or PDF.

Why is the text going over the image????

Please refer to video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rN6Ndm9sFo&feature=youtu.b
Why is the text going over the image when the text layer is below the image layer?? It is so frustrating.

Are you sending the texts to his phone number or his Apple ID? It might be that the texts originated from your phone is to his Apple ID and not his phone number and his Apple ID was not registered for the Message app on his phone. So any texts to his Apple ID is not received by his phone.
Can you receive his texts? If yes, then reply back from what he send you and see if he can receive the texts.

It needs to be dried out. Stop using it.. don't turn it on. Put it in a zip lock bag with some rice or one of those packets of dessicant for a day or two. That might do it.

My iPhone 5 is going throw all songs very fast without playing them. Whats happening?

Hi - in my opinion, it sounds like you might have more than a normal heat and battery drain issue - the iPhone will heat up and use up the battery under intense usage but it shouldn't crash unless you let the battery drain completely - the most disturbing part is the slowness when on LTE - my phone is actually faster on LTE than wi-fi - however you cannot compare the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5 - and if you are not satisfied with the local Genius bar, I would contact Apple directly and see what they say - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/ - also check out my previous post - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4525586?tstart=0 - having said all this however what your are experiencing could be normal in your situation - I hope this helps.
Regards,
Charlie
