Multiple phones on account - messages default to main phone, how to change

I have multiple phones on our account, messaging is defaulting to main phone which is an older style flip phone.  How can I change to the phone I want to see and sync messages from?

Each device has it's own backup on iCloud, even if under the same account.  Your contacts merged not from the backups but due to syncing his phone with your iCloud account.  To keep them separate, you need to have separate accounts.

  • Hi, I recently changed my username for my iTunes/iCloud account. Can anyone tell me how i change the username on my iCloud iPad? When I go onto setting to change it it keeps the username grey so I can't even select it?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • Printing from Firefox - Print defaults to LANDSCAPE. How to change to PORTRAIT? (Mac OS 10.8)

    Hello all. Printer type: HP Laserjet Pro CP-1525nw
    Printer Model: CE-875AOS: Mac OS 10.8.3Browser: Firefox v 20.0  When I print from Word or Excel, all is OK.However, when I print from Firefox, any website (example):http://www.gentrustwm.com/wp-content/uploads/GenTrust-Perspectives-April-2013.pdf It prints ONLY in Landscape mode. This truncates pages.I want to change the default setting to Portrait for all printing from Firefox and from Adobe PDF.I can't find a way to change the setting to PORTRAIT.  After Command/P, I see PRESETS/SHOW PRESETS/DEFAULT SETTINGS... this shows Orientation=Landscape. However, can't find the way to change the default. Please advise how to do this?  

    I have the same problem.   All of the sudden Firefox reverted to landscape default.    We have 3 HP printers and it does it on all printers It's not Yahoo or Gmail, it's everything we print in Firefox Any help would be appreciated

  • I have multiple phones, how do i set them all up on icloud?

    Is there a way to set all phones up in one iCloud, or does each phone have to be set up separately?

    There is a way to set all phones on one icloud and there are some positives and negatives about that and it has to be done on all devices one by one.
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html
    Devices will sync with each other, so if you do not want family contacts merge for example you do not need one icloud account.

  • Yahoo Default location in Safari: how to change it permanently?

    In Safari I have added (but don't recall how) to the toolbar an icon (with a "cloud") which takes me to the Yahoo! weather page:
    http://weather.yahoo.com/france/ile-de-france/paris-615702/?unit=c
    Once there I can enter another location (e.g. my hometown) and also specify this to be the "default location". But this default location apparently is not being stored, since when clicking on the cloud icon
    I still get back to the original "Paris" weather.
    Any idea how I could make my hometown permanent?
    Cheers
    Veit

    Are there perhaps settings in Safari that I need to change, i.e that prevent the Yahoo page from accepting the changes to the default location which I made there?
    Unfortunately, the settings are controlled by Yahoo, not your browser.
    Perhaps I need to address this question to the developer of the "Cloudy" extension of Safari.
    I wasn't aware this was a Safari Extension. Definitely try contacting the developer. That information should be in Safari / Preferences - Extensions.
    I realize that I was not precise in my question.
    Don't worry about that. Sometimes it takes going back and forth on a thread to figure it out.
    Thank you for the star.

  • HT1918 My old apple ID comes up and I cannot access my iTunes account.  I do not know how to change my account on the iPad.  I have already chant

    My old apple ID is on my iPad, after I changed my ID on my iPhone

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • 'enter' button submits message in Newsfeed/Sitefeed. How to change this behaviour?

    Hi there,
    When I hit 'enter' when writing a message in the textbox at the top of a Newsfeed or Sitefeed Web part, the message is published as soon as I press enter. Is it possible to change this behaviour?
    I noticed that in office 365 SharePoint the 'enter' button just brings me to a new line instead of immediately submitting the message. I would like to have this behaviour also on premise (SharePoint server 2013).
    Does anyone know if this is possible?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    The Site Feed web part in SharePoint on-premise is different from the web part in SharePoint online.
    It is by design that the post will be posted in SharePoint on-premise when clicking Enter button in keyboard.
    As a workaround, if you need to turn to another row, you can click Shift+Enter in SharePoint on-premise.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • How to change apple account in the ipad many times?(can't sign out)

    How to change accounts!
    I have multiple accounts not me but the whole family has apple accounts since we all are apples. Anyway everyone has a no credit card account except my dad. His account is synced in my sisters iPad. My dad changed the password so that we don't buy stuff the problem is we can't sign out of our dads account! I mean when we go to ipad:setting->store we already see that its already signed in my sisters account! But the problem is whenever my sister wants to update or download a free app it gives my dads email & wants us to fill the password! We already signed out!
    We tried logging in via itunes store then syncing the ipad but nothing happened!
    The apple retail store said after you submit the email of your ipad the only solution is to format it. But here is the big problem lets say we formatted it & after few days/months etc we wanted to buy an app we couldn't change the account to our dads account! Since we already are having trouble logging out of our dads account.
    So please tell me how to change the account many times! Because I couldn't change it in the iPad nor in iTunes in my iMAC.

    The apple retail store said after you submit the email of your ipad the only solution is to format it
    Your iPad does not have an email address.
    You will need to add a CC card to verify your account. The CC info can then be removed and the account used normally.
    It would likely be easier to simply update the apps on the computer then sync the iPad.
    iTunes can be authorized for all accounts then all apps can be updated at once.

  • How to change main window title of oracle ebs

    Hi all,
    Kindly tell me how can we change the main title of oracle ebs 11i.
    Thanks

    Hello Gloscott,
    Welcome to the Aperture discussion forum. Congratulations. You just hijacked a thread. That's bad form for 2 reasons. First, you added a message to a thread called "How to change main window view" which makes it look like you had information to add that thread, and you did not. Second, people who can help you are more likely to read a message that has your problem in the subject than they are to read this message. I.e., you won't get what you want if you ask for something else.
    That being said, when you repost your query in a new thread, you'll have to be more specific. A "Frame" is not in the regular Aperture terminology.

  • Question on iCloud accts:  I have my iPhone and iPad on one account, but my Mac is set up on my old mobile me acct.  Can't figure out how to change an iCloud account number on my Mac so I can sync all three.

    Question on iCloud accounts:  I have my iPhone and iPad on one iCloud account, but my Mac is on my old Mobile me account.  Can't figure out how to change my iCloud account on my MacBook Pro so all 3 are synced.

    First, open System Preferences > MobileMe and log out. Then, open  > About this Mac and see Version. If you see 10.5.x or 10.6.x, see > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If your Mac is compatible, upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
    When you have upgraded, go to System Preferences > iCloud and follow its steps

  • HT204268 I logged in to my account and it did not cue me to change my username.  I have the latest version of itunes.  How can I change my username?

    I logged into my itunes account and I cannot find out how to change my username.  No cue is showing up when I log on.  How can I do this?

    HI Patricia,
    Now to make sure that we are on the same page, as long as you have followed the steps from the original article that you came from then you should be good. Those steps were to sign out of iTunes with the AOL account and then sign back in to walk you through converting it to an email address as the username. As long as when looking at your Apple ID that is signed into iTunes, you see an email address then you have made the change. If you are still stuck then I would recommend that you contact Apple before the deadline of March 31st so you will not have any issues.
