Other phone connected to iCloud rings when someone calls my phone

How do I turn off other phones and iPads from receiving my phone calls to my number? there is nothing in settings for this

If FaceTime itself is off, you will have to turn it on to access this setting. You can then turn FaceTime off again, if you don't use it.

Try a different ringtone.
Reset or restart the device.

I have a IPhone 5 and Iphone 5s. Both are set up with the same account ID and running IOS 8.0.2. When the phones are connected to the same Wifi at home, both phones will ring when someone call in to one of the phone. Anyway to solve this problem?

I have a IPhone 5 and Iphone 5s, each phone is activited with a different service provider. Both are set up with the same account ID and running IOS 8.0.2. When the phones are connected to the same Wifi at home, both phones will ring when someone call in to one of the phone. Hence you do not know exactly which line the caller called. If you answered using the wrong phone, then anyone calling the other number will not get through. Anyway to solve this problem?

Hey David Koh TP,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your devices are set up to use continuity together. Specifically, it sounds like you are signed into the same Apple ID in FaceTime, and have iPhone Cellular Calls enabled. To resolve your issue, simply disable this setting:

Hi Mforesman,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The article below will explain what steps to take when you give your iPhone to someone else. Your carrier can help you transfer your husband's cell phone number to the iPhone 4S.
If your husband does not already have an Apple ID, you will need to create a new one for him, so that your contacts, calendars, notes, etc. in iCloud are separate from his. Once he has his own Apple ID and telephone number, these will be linked on the iPhone 4S and he will no longer receive your telephone calls.

Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5622
What is an Apple ID?
An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID.
How do I get an Apple ID?
You may already have an Apple ID, and you only need one for everything you do with Apple. If you aren't sure, visit My Apple ID and click Find your Apple ID.
If you don't have an Apple ID, you can create one at My Apple ID. You can also create one by signing up for an Apple service (such as an iTunes Store or iCloud). You should use your primary email address as your Apple ID.

You can sign in to your Apple ID on an iPhone by tapping Settings > FaceTime and Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

look in settings:sounds and be sure you have a ring tone set, and both vibrate buttons are off. Also be sure the volume slider id as far right as is comfortable.

Iphone 4 doesn't ring when someone calls

My iPhone 4 does not ring when someone calls. I have checked volume and it is turned on. Left side button is up for ring sound. Volume buttons don't do any good. I updated my phone to IOS 5.1 but no difference. Please help with this issue. Thanks

I had the problem a few times. I had a faulty toggle switch (between vibrate and sound). I took it into the apple store, and I was covered under apple care. I walked out with a new phone, free of charge.

My phone randomly doesn't ring when people call and not sound the text alert. I checked all the settings and them seem to be correct. Anyone know how to fix this?

After upgrading to iOS7 I lost all sound for my 4S except for the ring when someone calls. I can't listen to music, I don't get text or email notifications. I have tried rebooting?

Following upgrading to iOS7 I lost all sound for my 4s except for the ring when someone calls. I can't listen to music, I don't get text or email notifications. I have tried a wipe and reinstall, I've tried hard rebooting, I tried erasing all of my music and reinstalling it, I checked my Do Not Disturb, and I tried the AssistiveTouch mute button. Nothing. I can't even play music through bluetooth or headphones. Can anyone help please as its driving me mad!

I experience this problem too. I am using iPhone4 and just upgrade it to iOS7. And now I can not make outgoing call. I checked all the setting, and nothing wrong. I even replaced my sim card with the new one, still can not help.
I read this link

and I try dial *#31#, it help, but not permanent solution.

My wife and I both have iPhones recently when someone calls her phone mine also rings. How do I stop this?

Both my wife and I have IPhones (5C and 4S). For some reason for the last several months when someone calls one of our phones it rings on both phones. It seems to have started with the OS updates but that may be a coincidence. Is there a way to stop this?

DrYes wrote:
So if I turn off IPhone Cellular calls this will eliminate the problem? As I read it the double ringing only occurs when we are signed in and the phones are close and connected to WIFi.
Correct, I wouldn't lead you astray with a false response. It happens because you and your wife are using the same Apple id for facetime - which you shouldn't do, either you or her will need a separate id for facetime.
This subject has been brought up already, you can use the search function and look for the threads with the green checkmarks.

Having your cell phone ring when someone calls your landlines

Hello,
First sorry if this is the wrong area.
My Aunt was telling me how at their house they got rid of their landlines service, but was able to keep their number. Using equipment from verizon they were able to hook up something she said looked like a router and when someone would call the landlines number one of the cell phones would ring.
She wasn't really sure what it was called, but she said her husband got the equipment and all from Verizon. Can anyone tell me what this service is called and where on the website I can look at it to read more about it?
Thanks

I'm not about a piece of equipment that allows this, but here are a couple options to do what you're looking for:
1) Port your landline number to Verizon as a wireless number. This will completely close your account with your landline service provider, and your number will now be attached to your cell phone with Verizon. It should be fairly simple to do, just call Verizon or visit a store to get the process started.
2) Forward your current landline to a cell phone. If you only want your landline calls to go to your cellphone when you aren't there to answer, you could set up conditional call forwarding on your landline and point it to your cell phone. You would keep your landline service, and this option would make sense if you want to use the landline when you are home, but get calls from that number sent to your cellphone when you aren't there to answer. Different companies have different procedures and possibly charges for this service, you'd have to call your landline provider to find out.
If you want to be done with the landline service completely, just port the number to Verizon. If you want to keep it, set up forwarding.

My screen went black but the phone is still working because I can hear my text tones come in and also is ringing when someone calls.Screen is still black.Held the home button and top button for up to 5 min,I'm not getting an apple logo for reset. HELP!

The contract on this phone expires March 19. Its not worth getting a new one over a few weeks!

Yes, I understand that. But The screen issue is not a result of user damage. The phone was not dropped when the screen got cracked. My daughter was standing in a chair at the table and dropped one of her toys onto the bottom of the phone and cracked it right by the home button. (Nowhere near the LCD/digitizer flex cables, connections, or logic board components) then a few months later my phone had died, I plugged it in, it showed it was charging, then Apple logo disappeared and screen didn't work. AFTER contacting Apple about the issue and them telling me that it "is a result of the very minimal crack to the sheet of glass that has no relation to the LCD or Digitizer and that the warranty does not cover it I had taken it upon myself to change the LCD/digitizer to no avail, as well as backlight ic and backlight coil to no avail. But how do I go about letting Apple know that it is in fact NOT due to the cracked screen nor is it due to the flex cable connections? I can't. So the lady that works the call center phones trying to "convince" me that she knows what she is talking about and "convince" me that it is from the cracked screen I have to take her word because I can't show Apple that its not because of that without paying them $199 to fix the screen in which case they will just send me a new phone rather than fix the faulty hardware under warranty.

My iPad doesn't ring when someone calls on face time. Any idea why?

I have two iPads... both are brand new. When I use face time to call from iPad "1" to iPad "2" everything works fine. When I call from iPad "2" to iPad "1" iPad "1" doesn't ring. The screen lights up with the 'accept call' or reject call buttons, and if I hit accept, it works fine. But it doesn't ring.
Both iPads have the exact same settings. I have turned face time off, powered down, restarted and turned face time back on... nothing. And no offense to Apple's website, but I can't find anything that helps.
Any ideas out there? Or will I end up having to restore the original settings and re-install all of the apps and data?
Thanks...

My iPhone 5 has suddenly gone black and I cannot see anything on it but the phone rings when someone calls and can pick the call, but cannot view anything

My phone has suddenly gone blank, total black screen can't even dial any contacts but the phone does ring

Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for up to 1 minute, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

Help please!! Phone no longer rings when someone ...

I just got a skype number a week ago. Everything worked fine for 5 days. Suddenly since yesterday morning, when someone calls me, there is no audible ringtone. If I call them back, after I see the missed call, we can talk normally. Both my speakers and microphone are working fine in every other way (and in all other applications). When I go to Tools -> options, and ask it to play the ringtone, I can hear it fine. It just doesn't actually ring when someone calls.
I looked at "How do I adjust the sound settings on my computer and in Skype for Windows 7?" in FAQ, and everything checked out fine.
Does anyone have a clue how I can fix this? There's not much point my having this skype number if I can only receive missed calls. I very much need to be able to answer the phone.
I did try re-starting my computer. Several times.
Thanks!

Hi, Mikros,

How do I receive calls and instant messages in Skype for iPad?
You only need to be signed in to Skype on your iPad to receive Skype calls and instant messages.
You can have Skype running in the background and receive calls and instant messages, while you have other applications open.
If you don’t hear the Skype call ringtone when your friends are calling or instant messaging you, simply enable the Skype notifications:
In your iPad’s main menu, go to Settings.
Tap Notifications > Skype and set Sounds to ON.
If you’re signed in to Skype on your iPad and on your desktop computer at the same time, both of them will ring when you receive an incoming call.
You can also receive incoming calls to your Skype Number. The Skype Number will allow people to call you on Skype, even if they’re not on Skype themselves. You can set up Skype Number from your Skype account.
My iPad is on OS 7.0.4, and I confirmed the above settings before copying and pasting here. If you are still on an older version of the iPad OS, check your audio settings in the Settings -> General or Sounds tab.
Kind regards,
Elaine
