Message app on touch interfering with my phone account?

my daughter has an itouch and would like to use the message app, but it intereferes with my account and her messages duplicate and run off of my contacts. I know I have to set up her own id-I think, but I cannot remember how to set up one for her; then I think I have to input that id into her settings on her touch, right?

  • IPhone 3GS antenna interfering with other phones?

    Does anyone know if the iPhone was known to cause "interferences" with other mobile devices? According to an employee at the iPhone provider in Saudi Arabia, Mobily, the iPhone 3G (released in late Feb 2009) antenna was interfering with other phones. They said that Apple didn't fix it with the 3GS so they can't release it.
    Did anyone else heard of something similar? Did any other carrier say anything about the iPhone antenna causing interference?
    (let me go on a quick rant about the iPhone 3GS release here):
    Another employee claimed that Mobily didn't meet expected sales (their own fault, they are hurting the iPhone 3G).
    What's really weird is all of the countries listed here

    got their iPhone 3GS in August. Only exceptions are: Saudi Arabia (Mobily), UAE (Etisalat) and Jordan (Orange). I am trying the feedback form, but, does anyone have any idea on why are these countries missing?
    Thanks

  • HT1918 I have 2 Apple ID's, how do I delete the old one as its interferring with my new account and the music I have already purchased through ITunes does not want to play.  Any suggestions?

    I have 2 Apple ID's, how do I delete the old one as its interferring with my new account and the music I have already purchased through ITunes does not want to play.  Any suggestions?

    Why would you create a new account?
    All purchases will be tied to the account from which they were purchased.
    You will have to authorize your computer for all the accounts from which music is purchased.

  • Is there a way to transfer or copy all my apps to another iPad with a different account? I was required in my job to use the one at work, but I would like to also see my current set ups and apps as in my personal one. Thank you so much!

    What I suggest is that you try to pair your apple ID with you company ipad and see if it works.
    Here is why::
    I believe that the Apple rules let you. They are something like:
    -- for a shared iDevice, you may put the app on one device
    -- for a device you use exclisively, you may put the app on five (or some number) of iDevices
    I'm not lawyer, so how you interpred this is a question.
    Now, you need to figure out how to do this.
    In the past at least, apple used this terminalogy.
        Personal
        Institution
        Layered. combines personal & institution.
    It depends on how your company has configured the iPad.
    I have read where you can have upto three apple id per device.

  • Apps won't synch with new phone

    Bought 3GS and synched from 2G backup, but none of the apps (except one, Around Me) will synch onto new phone. Tried turning on and off, etc. No luck.

    I just finished doing my synch with my new 3GS and everything moved over to my new phone.
    You might want to check your settings in the Devices area for your phone and make sure your apps are checked to by synched with the phone, I had to check a few of mine to make sure that they moved over to the new one, but otherwise it seems like everything has moved over correctly.

  • Message App appeared in Multibox with games titled 'Productivity

    This morning after the IPhone update my Message App appeared in a multibox that also contained random games titled 'Productivity'. How do I get my Messaging App back to its own position?

    Press and hold the icon until it wiggles. Drag it out of the folder. Drag it to where ever you want it. Tap the Home button when you're done.

  • How do I sync "On My iPod touch" notes with and IMAP account?

    I wrote a number of notes in the Notes app before I configured it to sync with an IMAP account. I have added an IMAP acct. to the device and configured that acct. to sync notes. Notes now has an accounts section, and that section lists "On My iPod touch" and the IMAP acct. How do I get the "On My iPod touch" notes sync'd with my IMAP?

    Have you tried restoring the ipod?

    If this fails, then it is likely a hardware problem.

  • How to initiate a conversation on google talk using the messages app? (I have already added my account and enabled it in the preferences menu of the messages app)

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion recently, iMessage (through the messages app) works even better. But because the messages app has now completely replaced the former iChat app, it also has the ability to add google (google talk), yahoo and AIM accounts for instant messaging. I have added my gmail account through the prefernces menu in the messages app and have also enabled it. However I'm unable to start a chat with any of my contacts on gtalk. Once I start a new message and type in the concerned person's google email id (which is on my friends list, added through google talk earlier), I get a message saying the person isn't available on iMessage. I don't see any other option to open a new chat window for my google talk contact who are not on iMessage. Is there anything else that can be done or is it only possible to receive messages on google talk via the messages app on Mountain Lion?

    Try to do this:
    - be sure you have added your GMAIL / GTALK account on Sys pref. Mail Contacts and Calendars
    - Open Messages, preferences, Account. Now you should see iMessage, Gtalk and Bonjour. Try to disable iMessage and Bonjour and see if anything changes.
    Let me know,
    Best

  • Updating apps that were purchased with an old account

    How do I update apps that were purchased under prior email account? I no longer have this email address but the app updates keep prompting me for it.

    Apps are forever tied to the account used to download them.  That means they will always require it to update. The fact the email is no longer functional has nothing to do with this.
    If you still have the password for the Apple ID (not the email account) you can still use it.  You can also go to appleid.apple.com and update the email address for the Apple ID there to a functioning one so the Apple ID remains useable.

  • All the apps that I have downloaded are "waiting" and whenever I try to sync apps on my computer with my phone, the apps section is greyed out and won't allow me to do anything. I have tried restoring to factory settings but it didn't work.

    How can I access my apps? They are all greyed out in itunes. I have tried restoring my iphone to factory settings but that didn't work. I have a feeling it may have something to with the restrictions settings on my phone  restrictions are on) but it won't allow me to change the restrictions without putting in a passcode. I don't remember ever having a passcode and after several attempts have not been able to get the right code.
    Also. on my phone, in settings, personal hotspot, iCloud and Twitter are greyed out. And, the App Store icon is missing from my screen as well.
    Can anybody help me with this?
    Thanks

    yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
    With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
    open itunes on my computer
    click on my device on the left
    go to the device summary
    click restore
    it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
    then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
    then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
    Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!

  • Wall and/or Car charging iPod Touch 32GB with cell phone/other USB charger

    I know the "stock" answer is to buy an iPod compatible charger for my $300 device, but while traveling, it's nice to pack less gadget chargers and more gadgets
    Can I safely charge my iPod Touch with my LG Phone charger ("5.1V - .07A" output)?
    I also have a wall charger for my Flip Video ("+5VDC, 1A(5W)")
    Does anyone have the specs for an Apple brand iPod Touch 32GB charger?
    Thanks!!

    My experience is that you just have to try 3rd party USB chargers. Some work, some don't, and it doesn't appear to just be the power specs. I had a 3rd party charger that ran my iPod 5G video just fine, but didn't work on my Touch 32GB (1st gen). My Apple charger is 5 volts/1 Ampere, as is my Kensington that also works.
    You might mention what generation your IPT 32GB is, in case someone knows of some difference.

  • HT3406 How do I switch my iPod apps to an iPhone (with no phone service)

    I used an iPod2 for years. Got message that some apps are no longer supported so I upgraded to an iPod4. Nice but no GPS. I have been informed iPhone3GS has GPS so I purchased one this morning. When I connect to iTunes, it won't switch my iTunes account to the iPhone.
    How do I do this?

    The phone is a LG Revere (Basic Phone).  Not sure if there is some SIM card issue that needs to be addressed.  The iPhone 5s was reset so I don't know how to make the iPhone take the old LG phone number?  Will the iPhone think it is for my daughters number if I try to start it up again?
