Recent problem with 2 separate phones getting same messages and contact info

I have an iphone 4s/ my father also has a 4s. in the past few days, suddently his contact list and my contact list have merged. Today, I deleted my contacts off his phone, but it also deleted my contacts off my phone. FURTHER, any texts sent to either one of us, also automatically come to BoTH of us, including-- IF he sends to me, he sends to both me and himself (automatically/he is NOT copying himself on this). This has been a sudden/ recent occurance. It is like each phone is a clone of one another, though we do NOT get each other's phone calls. Problem seems to be only in the contact list and messaging systems.

imaginebeth, not all ppl have set it up the iMessage feature they just turn off the option on their apple devices, i had few friends that i know they have iPhone iPad , iPod and they just do not use iMessage because they said are using the same apple ID in all their devices and the imessages drop in they message app, i know that happend but just some do not like use that feature, if u send a text to one of ur contacts that has iPhone and the message go in green color that is because they are not using iMessage feature or some are out range from cellphone towers signal sometimes happend with few of my contacts.

Hello tadom,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines the exact error message you described, and a potential resolution:

My iphone 4 was crushed on the road. Bought a 4 replacement tried to restore it in itunes to get my contact info and it said there was a problem with my phone and I should contact mean

My iphone 4 was crushed on the road. Bought a 4 replacement tried to restore it in itunes to get my contact info and it said there was a problem with my phone and I should contact apple store. What does that mean please?

Is the replacement exactly the same as the original ie same memory size & same version? If so it may require updating the OS software before trying to restore your stuff from the backup.

wen6275,
It looks like you're actually using a camera or phone to take a photo of your monitor.
That's not what is commonly known as a "screen shot".
It looks like you're on a Mac. Hitting Command+Shift+3 places a capture of the contents of your entire monitor on your Desktop; hitting Command+Shift+4 will give you a cross-hairs cursor for you to select just the portion you want to capture.
I'm mentioning this because I fear I'm not construing your original post correctly when you type "I am working with a large files [sic], currently it has 149 layers, all of which are high resolution photographs", so I'm wondering if there's some similar use of your own idiosyncratic nomenclature in your description of your troublesome file.
Perhaps I'm just having a major senior moment myself, but I'm utterly unable to imagine such a file. Would you mind elaborating?

Please help - frustrated to no end. Can someone help me?

make sure you're using the adobe cleaner, not crap cleaner, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
copy the installation files to a desktop folder and install from there.

My iPhoto doesn't even open! i get same message saying it's unreadable! anybody else have this problem!?

First try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it doesn't then your current library is the culprit.
If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.
