Me and my brother share the same itunes. when we downloaded the IOS6 update he didnt change his phone number. now he receives all my text messages and phone calls? How do i fix this?

Help me fix this

Try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". If that doesn't work, you'll have to tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different Apple ID for iMessage.

My friend stopped receiving messages from my iphone. he used to get them all the time and suddenly he stopped stopped receiving them but receives all other text messages from others. How do we fix that?

A friend and I text almost all the time. He used to receive all of my messages and one day, he text me, I responded and he didn't receive it. He still doesn't receive my texts but can receive other texts from everyone else. He sees me texts when he is on his computer through google voice but doesn't see my messages on his phone. How can we fix this issue?

Did he previously have an iPhone and now uses another type of phone?
If yes, he needs to read this:

The pre-2006 iMacs this forum covers cannot run any higher than OS10.5.8, and Apple pretty much stopped pushing out any updates for anything other than the current version.
If your iMac is a newer model (covered here: iMac (Intel) forum) you can run at least 10.6.8, available for purchase rather cheaply here:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and it's possible you can run higher depending on your iMac variant. So find your iMac variant, please do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click the "More Info" button to get this screen:
Please tell us the code name ans number for your computer in the line I've indicated with the red arrow. For an iMac, it will either be in the format, "PowerMacX,X" or "iMacX,X" depending on the age of your iMac. The trailing numbers where I put Xs will help us help you determine what exact variant you have and what upgrade options are available.
Also tell us how much RAM is installed. Newer OS versions often need more RAM that older iMacs shipped with.

Text messaging is merged! How do we fix this?

After changing cell phone carriers and upgrading iPhones, our text messaging is merged. She sees and responds to message to me and everytime I text her it registers as "to" me and "from" me. How can I fix this ASAP?

Stop using the same Apple ID for iMessage on both phones.

After updating to iOS7 my text messages are gone. How can I fix this?

After updating to iOS7 and restoring my phone from backup, my text messages are still gone. How can I fix this? Right before I updated to iOS7 I backed up my phone. After the update was complete, my phone had none of my information on it so I restored it from back up which says "Restoring from backup will not change the firmware, but will restore pictures, contacts, calendars, text messages, etc." So I am confused as to why it isn't working. I tried twice and everything came back except text messages. This isn't the first time I've had this happen after updating my phone but I'm tired of dealing with this issue. Can anyone tell me how to get my text messages back or what I did wrong?

Have you also asked in the Adobe forums? To have people read your post, best not to include long crash reports until asked to do so.

My husband and I share an iTunes account. I just got a mac, but everything I send by message from the mac appears to come from his phone. How do I correct this?

My husband and I share the itunes account. I just got an iMac. Everytime I send a message from my iMac, it appears to come from my husband's account phone number. Is there any way to fix this? Also, when I open iMessages, all the texts are from his phone (his text conversations).
Thank you so much for your help!

Try This:
Open up the imessage app on your Imac. Once you have it opened go to top left corner of your screen next to the apple picture and the word MESSAGES appears. Click on it then click on preferences and uncheck your husbands phone and number and or any other numbers which are checked. I had same problem this fixed it. Also if you wanted to you can open up your own Apple account, but that's not really necessary. My wife and I both share the same as you do

I installed the new iOS 5 and now my text messaging doesn't work, how do i fix this?

i was wondering if this is a hardware problem with my phone since it is a refurbished one, or if it has happened to other people as well.

How are you trying to accomplish these two tasks?
The correct way is as follows:
Camera zoom: pinch with your fingers like you do when viewing pictures.
Camera button in lock screen: Double-tap on the home button while in lock screen
If you are already doing it that way and it doesn't work, then maybe someone else here has another idea.

My iphone 3gs resets during phone calls - how do I fix this?

my iphone 3gs keeps resetting itself ie apple logo comes up, whenever I talk for more than approx 5 minutes. Have tried to reset to factory settings, but still happening.
Please help!

Your answer would not be to buy the 4s, cos your batt might die before the 5 min mark
Look on the bright side, at least your phone starts again! Mine dies and doesnt start again until i plug it in!!!

ICloud sync of same contacts to all phones. How do I fix this?

Ok so my dad, mom, and for some reason have the same contacts as everyone else after we updated our phones but we all have different apple id's. How do i fix this?? please help!!

You're welcome. Undoing the merged contacts will require you to go through and delete the ones that you don't want on each phone (assuming you don't have a clean unmerged list to re-import to the phone). First decide who will keep the existing iCloud account and who will change to a new one. Then, on the phone that is changing, go to Settings>iCloud and turn off syncing for each of the services listed (contacts, etc.). When prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone. Then scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account on this phone.) Now set up a new iCloud account on this phone with a different Apple ID and turn on syncing again for contacts, etc. Next go to iCloud.com on your computer, sign into the new account, go to contacts and go through and delete the unwanted contacts. (You'll also have to sign into the other iCloud account and delete the contacts you don't want on the other phone as well.) That should fix the contacts on both phones.
As for the music, connect her phone to iTunes, go to the Summary tab and check "Sync only checked songs and videos" (if it isn't already checked). Then in the music library, uncheck each of the songs that she doesn't want on her phone. When finished, sync her phone and the unwanted songs will be removed.
