Make macbook and iphone dont receive same messages

How can I set up my macbook and/or iphone so that if "message" on my macbook is open, then iphone would stop receiving messages, i.e. I will not need to look at the same messages on iphone that I've already looked at on my macbook.

I'm somewhat positive on the fact that what you are asking to be done, cannot actually be done.

  • Everytime I go abroad I have problems with my iphone in that contacts text me and I dont receive the message or the message land in my email about three weeks later. Some contacts I cant send or receive messages from even though I could before Any Ideas?

    Hi,
    Everytime I go abroad I have problems with my contacts, some people send me messages and I dont receive them. I sent them messages and they are not received either. Their phones and mine show them as sent, but they are never received. Sometimes the text messages sent to arrive in my email about three weeks later. Any ideas how I can resolve this and get back to messaging my friends as normal?
    Thanks T

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • 2 iphones both receive same messages and sometimes phone calls. What causes this?

    My wife and I both have iphones but we are receiving each others messages and sometimes phone calls even though different phones. What is causing this? Both phones registered under the same user. Means she is seeing my texts messages and vice versa.

    If you are receiving imessages intended for other devices you can fix this by going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
    Uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on both devices if they are iPhones; or
    On one of the devices go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the Apple ID, sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID.  Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for the iTunes & App store for purchasing if you wish; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud and other services.

  • I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

  • My imessage wont activate and work, and i dont receive messages from people useing imessage? how do i get imessage to work?

    My imessage wont activate and work, and i dont receive messages from people useing imessage? how do i get imessage to work?

    I recently moved back to Australia for school from Canada and signed up for the new iphone 6 plus. After using icloud to save and backup from my previous iphone 4s, all of the apps eventually worked....except for whatsapp. After looking through my phone and numerous chat forums, it appears that my imessage and facetime are stuck in, "waiting for activation".....is anyone else having problems with this?
    I am curious as I am unable to receive the whatsapp code to re-activate my application. This brings me to my second question, is this an iphone/apple problem or a whatsapp third party problem?
    I've had friends send imessages to me and they appear to coming through. I have already rebooted and restarted my phone numerous time. A strong connection to wifi and data stream have all come in loud and clear.
    I have tried all of the directions that were posted and still have no whatsapp and imessage still inconsistent.
    Thank you

    Hello ! How i get activate my sim phone ? I have iphone 4s and I've received a message : "server unavailable. Please contact apple support." I've tried with iTunes, but ididn't work. Please help me.

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and tis now relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
    Unauthorized modification of iOS

    If your iPhone has not been jailbroken, see the troubleshooting suggestions here:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424?viewlocale=en_US

  • After installing update, I repeatedly get message "your computer must be restarted to finish a previous upgrade," and I've restarted several times, and I when trying uninstall receive same message.

    Yesterday, I ran an update that was available. This morning when opening the browser, it stated that I needed to retsart my computer to complete the upgrade. I rebootted five times (at least) and it will not start Firefox. I tried uninstalling and planned to reload (apparently losing all of my favorites) and I can't do that--receive same message. I'm using IE today :(

    Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).
    If that doesn't help then do a clean reinstall.
    Download a fresh copy of Firefox ( http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html ) and do a reinstall of Firefox on top of the current version. You won't lose your personal data like bookmarks doing that ([http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]).
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Software Update not working properly)<br />
    You may need to remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder:
    Vista/Windows7:

  • Why does iCal look different on iPad than on Macbook and iPhone?

    Is there a way to get my calendar in my macbook and iPhone to have the same visual interface as the calendar on my iPad? Is there certain software I need to download? I just don't like the format of the iCal on my my computer and iPhone, and finally they have a good format but only for one of my products.

    I have no answers for you on this one, but I agree. I enjoy the layout on my ipad, but it seems that iCal is falling behind in its formatting. With a new iLife out there, and OSX Lion out in the open, you'd think they could make the interface a whole lot better on MacBook if they are offering it on iPad.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
