Messages are being shared between phones with new ios6
My messages are being shared with every phone that is using my apple id, how do I turn it off?
You should sign out of iMessage on your other devices: "Settings > Messages > Send & Receive" then click on your Apple ID and sign out.

This is with iMessages only.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and below the Start New Conversations From, select your cell phone number instead of your Apple ID email address. -

Are you certain they are not simply playing tricks on you?
Try a reset or restart of the device and see if the issue clears up. -
Iphone question
my my incoming phone calls are being shared with my wife's IPhone as well, both phones are getting the same call, how do I correct?
thanksThat is a new feature described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off.
You may also want to look into using separate Apple IDs for you and your wife. That is now more flexible with new Family Sharing features: http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/ -
All my contact are being copied to my friend's iphone and i also am getting his contacts on my phone,when i delete a contact it also deletes it from his phone,we are sharing the same apple ID. How can i stop our contacts from being shared between us
Everything that you have checked in your icloud settings will be shared between devices using the same Apple ID. If you don't want icloud to share that information, then simply turn off that process under settings > icloud

My messages are linked somehow between my phone and iPad. I need to make space on my iPad so I want to delete the messages off my iPad only. If I delete my messages off of my iPad, will they also be deleted off of my iPhone?
Welcome to the Apple community.
If you delete messages on one device they arent deleted on others. -
I have two iPhones synced with the same Apple ID and so the contacts are being shared in both of them. Is there any way to revert this?? The reason is that if I delete some contact from one device then it automatically erases from the second one as well
Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.

Hello Errappa,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I was thinking that it would be a good idea for you to call our Account Security team about what may be happening with the account.
Note: You will need to be able to verify the account.

My wife and I have been texting on our iPhones. All of the sudden all messages are being sent as text. We cannot seem to make the iMessage work. Any ideas?
Your question is almost too much a personal one, begging the question "do we (husband and wife) feel comfy sharing one account on the Mac" maybe thats why nobody answered you.
It doesnt complicate anything, but it adds steps for switching accounts on the Mac/ purchases etc. of course
since your question is mostly personal, ..I wont answer THAT part of it, but creating a new account is easy.....messing with switching back and forth is also a personal preference 'issue' as well. I prefer to keep things simple, but...........you and yours, I dont know.......

I have just upgraded to Windows 8 and my scyning and upgrading my phone with new apple software fails, Itunes looses connection with the device (phone), cant backup the phone or download new software, is this an issues with Windows
Hi, stig2013.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps.
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

HT4528 old text messages are being deleted automatically
my old text messages are being deleted automatically but this seems to only happen with one contact. Has anyone experienced/fixed this?
If you had pop and now want to use imap you need to create another (new) email account in Mail.
When you start creating a new account, press the option key when you click the Continue button and you will be given the choice of creating the account for pop or imap. -

MY wife has an Iphone 4 and I have a 5. To date we have used one apple account to manage music purchases/library. I updated ny phone to the new OS version and all her texting is showing up on my phone. I understand if i create an apple account for her I will not see her texts. Recently we bought a Mac and created a new apple account for her. How do I synched her phone with new apple account and get access to the music library under my account on the new MAC laptop before I update her phone to the new OS?
Going forward if I purchase music under my apple id and want her to have it on her device, how can I acheive that?You can continue to share an Apple ID for purchases.
Sign her in to her new account here:
Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (Keep on Phone if you want to transfer contacts, calendars, etc...) then sign in with her new ID
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID > Sign out then in with new
Settings > FaceTime > Apple ID > Sign out then in with new
Use the same Apple ID here:
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID -
Sent messages are being marked as "unread"
Ever since installing OS X 10.8.3, both my iMac and MBP have been leaving sent messages marked as "unread". Not all outgoing messages are being left in this unread state, but most are. Any ideas on why this might be happening and how to fix it? Is anybody else having the problem? A search of the forums shows some old material that might be related, but I don't see anything that has any answers.
TIA for you help.This stopped happening as mysteriously as it started for me. The only change made on my end is that I added some seemingly unrelated filter Rules - around the same time (i can't be entirely certain if it stopped before or after the Rule changes) the proble with sent messages being marked as unread stopped. I doubt that the Rules actually had a direct effect, though perhaps it altered the structure of memory enough to stop the bug from occurring (something which I've seen many times in my 40 years of programming).

Messages are being deleted automatically
We have been using TB successfully on Windows 7 for a couple of years having previously used Outlook.
My wife's incoming e-mail messages are being deleted after one month. They are also deleted from Webmail. The ISP says that they have not been deleted by the ISP but by a 3rd party program. We noticed the problem when searching for an old message. (I just checked using an old XP-enabled computer and all the old messages are there except nothing since June 25 2014.)
I noted this morning that all of my sent messages have disappeared. For the moment at least they are still on the ISP's webmail.
I checked our TB settings regarding retention and deletion, including those of 3 addresses that don't have the problem. They all look OK.
Can somebody please advise on what our next steps should be? Many thanks.If you had pop and now want to use imap you need to create another (new) email account in Mail.
When you start creating a new account, press the option key when you click the Continue button and you will be given the choice of creating the account for pop or imap.
