Text messages IPad
Since downloading music from iTunes i am unable to get text messages on my IPad
how do I correct this I have gone over all my settings
Try turning off iMessage, Settings->Messages->iMessage. reboot the iPad, then turn it back on.
If that doesn't work try resettings all settings. Settings->General->Reset->Reset All Settings. You will have to sign back into your wifi network but will not lose any data.

How to I get my iPad to not receive text messages and apps from my iPhone?
After doing the new software update on my phone, computer, and Ipad my Ipad has been linked directly to my phone. I have changed all setting so that it wont share of communicate but in the update process all saved data was removed from my IPAD I went back to Itunes and after the update to that all the backed up information was gone and the cloud didnt have any backed up information in it from the issues they had with the cloud in August. How do I get my Ipad to disconnect from my phone that it wont recieve text messages or anything else associated with my phone?
You are probably going to have to sign out of/turn off Messages on the phone and the iPad and then start all over again and enable messages on the phone first so that the number is accessible again to use on the iPad in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at. You need to be able to select your phone number in there.
This kb article explains it in detail.

I have spent hours on the phone with Apple and AT&T. I went thought reset, on/off, etc, etc with both companies to no avail. Each company pointed fingers at the other....as being the source of the problem.
Problems: Suddenly ALL incoming calls were going directly to VM with no signal I missed calls and/or had VM. I was also unable to receive all Text Messages...Oddly, I could send text messages to anyone (even non-apple users but I could not receive their responses)........then I when I got home I started receiving text messages from other apples users ONLY. I assume now - iMessage kicked in and I could text (send/receive) other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users ONLY. ....yes, I could still (send) text messages to my husband's blackberry (he received my messages fine) but my phone would NOT receive his text respones.
Finally, I googled the problem and found this community where other people have had the exact same problems! One person said he "turned off 3 G" which was the solution for him....so I did the same and VIOLA! My problem solved! Nevermind the fact that I pay for 3G and cannot use it....so here's my question, if 3G is the problem on my phone is this an APPLE issue or a NETWORK problem? Do I purchase a new phone and slip in my same SIM card and hope the same does not occur or do I get a whole new SIM card and phone? What is the long term resolution to this problem?
I am happy however to find that my problem is NOT an isolated incident and wish Apple or AT&T had told me this is not so uncommon because I thought (based on the baffled response from Apple) that this has never occurred before. Where is Steve Jobs when we need him?jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

I just switched from a iPhone 4S to iPhone 5S and now my text messages are showing up on my iPad as well as my phone. How to I turn this feature off and just keep them on my phone?
This is for imessage - go to settings - message - send&receive and start a new convo - remove or uncheck the apple id.

I just got a new iPad air and also own an iPhone 5. I'm receiving most of my text messages on the iPhone, but some are now also showing up on my iPad. I don't want them on my iPad, any suggestions on how to get them to stop showing up n my iPad?
Go to settings>messages>send and receive at>you can be reached by iMessages at> Uncheck your phone number and you can select your Apple ID emal address if you want to use that for messages.

My iPad was stolen - I just synced it with my cellphone number and updated to the new OS the day before it's stolen. Why is the iPad not showing up in my iCloud account so that I can locate it and wipe the data?
I know that the iPad is likely still full of my text messages because I tried deleting them on my phone thinking it would also delete them from the iPad. Instead, the iPad re-populated all if the text messages I deleted back in to my iPhone.
Help! I don't want these people having my personal text messages. How can I wipe an iPad/break the sync with my phone when I don't have the iPad anymore?What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen

When attempting to send text message from iPad I get error message "phone number not registered with iMessage REMOVE" the number is for iPhone an includes area code and country code. How do u register a number with iMessage?.
The iPad is not capable of sending an SMS message so texts, pictures, etc., must go through iMessage. The destination device must be registered with the Apple servers by turning on iMessage. Therefore, the user with the iPhone must enable it for iMessage. -
Regarding text messaging, if I send a message from my iPhone, the reply goes to my ipad, or mini ipad. How can I stop this from happening?
Go to Settings/ Messaging/ Send & Receive on each device to set the contact points to be reached at, and to set the "from" address when you start a new message. It sounds like your iPhone might be sending messages out as one thing (e.g. an iCloud address) but set to not receive replies only to your phone number. Make sure you review settings on each device since you may, or may not, want to have them common.

Not with your current user id.
Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
Let's start with iTunes.
Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
Really?
OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do. -
I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

I have the iPhone 4S and my daughter has the iPad 2. We share my Apple ID. Is there any way to stop her text messages from appearing on my phone, and vice versa? She doesn't need to be reading my texts!
no, there currently is no way of doing this. You can only create a second Apple ID.

How do I DISABLE text message forwarding between my iPad and iPhone?
I want to DISABLE text forwarding from my iPhone 5 (IOS 8.1.1) to my IPad 4 (IOS 8.1.1) but....I have already tried the following (so PLEASE do not make these suggestions):
I want to be able to text from my iPhone and those text messages (either SMS or iMessage) NOT go to my iPad. BUT, I want to also text from my iPad and those messages NOT go to my iPhone. I want the text messages to stay on each device independently.
Since I still want to be able to text from my iPad, I do NOT want to turn off iMessage. If I turn off iMessage, I cannot text from my iPad.
I disabled HANDOFF
I disabled TEXT MESSAGE FORWARDING (from my iPhone)
Creating a new Apple ID is not an option since there is other data that I need between devices.
Having followed these steps, I still cannot stop the texts from forwarding between devices. Any ideas?On your iPad, can you deselect your phone number as an option in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at and then add an email address at which you can be reached? My iPod Touch is set up to use an email address (I have 6 email accounts) and the messages on my iPod do not sync with my other devices.
I Do have to say that it has been ages since I set up the Touch for Messages, but I am running iOS 8 on it. I can't remember if I had to sign out of messages and start all over again on the touch in order to deselect the iPhone number. -
Text messages not synching between my iPad and iPhone
How do I synch the text messages between my iPhone and my iPad. I just sent a text message to an individual using my iPhone 5 and the reply appeared on my iPad only. I also have a whole text conversation sent today that only appears on my iPad and not my iPhone.
Hi jathom,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you are sending and receiving iMessages as the messages are received on your iPad.
Since these messages are not being received on your iPhone as expected, these steps are a good place to begin troubleshooting:
If you aren't receiving iMessages across all iOS devices
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on each iOS device and make sure that you signed in with your Apple ID. You must use the same Apple ID on each device.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By iMessage At and make sure that you selected each phone number and email address you want to use with iMessage.
If you linked a phone number to your Apple ID with iMessage and the phone number hasn't appeared, followthese steps.
Sign out of your Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and Settings > FaceTime on all devices.
If you're linking a phone number to an Apple ID, sign in to iMessage on your iPhone first. Then sign in to the rest of your device one by one with iMessage and FaceTime.

I have an Ipad mini and an iphone 4. Can I get text messages to appear on both devices at the same time?

How can I receive a text message from an iPhone to my iPad instead of my android phone?
my friend has an iphone6 plus, I have an iPad Air. I cannot receive messages from his iPhone to my iPad but he can send to my android phone. I do receive iMessages from other iphone 5 and 6plus users to my iPad.
If you are sending an iMessage rather than an SMS (normal text message) it uses your Data Plan not your Text Message allowance.

So, all of my iphone-using friends need to simply have a data plan, and set up imessages so the texts show up as blue, and I won't be charged additionally?
Correct.
The Blue iMessages use your Internet connection.
If you are away from a Wifi network it will use your Cellular Data Plan for the internet connection.
The Green Ones use your Text Messaging service.
Again If they have set up iMessages on their iPhones it will be sent through the internet.
All other Phones and iPhones that don't have iMessage set up, will use your Text Message Allowance known as SMS.
