TS1702 Text messages on both iphone and ipad

Since I upgraded to 6.1, all my incoming and outgoing text messages are showing up on both my iphone and ipad.  I'd like to keep two separate streams.  How do I separate them?

    How can I receive text messages on my iPhone and iPad?

    If you are using the iMessage app on your iPad, you need to use the same email address you use on your iPhone.  But, be advised, that when people email your cell number on your iPhone, you will not get the message on your iPad.  iPad is not a cell phone.  And also know that iMessage on iPad is intended to only let you text with other iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) devices. 
    If you want to be able to text to anyone from your contacts list (those for example who do not own an iOS device), there are free apps in the App Store, such as TextFree, which you can download.  But, TextFree will assign you a number (I know kind of odd since iPad is not a cell phone), which you can then text anyone you want.  You'll just need to let your friends know the texts are coming from you.

    You need to make sure that the setting You can be reaached by iMessage at: is the same on both devices or at least have a common entry.

  • TS4268 Text message failures from iPhone and iPad

    Every time I send a text to one of my contacts from my iPhone it comes back undelivered.  If I try again it asks if I want to send as text message.  I select text message and it works.  When sending from my iPad, I don't have the option to send as text message, so it fails.
    I did not have this problem prior to upgrading to the new IOS 7.

    I figured out the problem that I was having with my text messages.  The contact that kept failing had two devices for the same phone number on his contact "profile".  One was listed as a mobile and the other as an iPhone.  I deleted the mobile and it has worked since.  Not sure about your other issues.

  • I share an Apple ID with someone but we are now on iOS8 and getting each others messages on our iphones and ipad. How can I split the account safely as well as protect icloud backed up data?

    I share an Apple ID with someone but we are now on iOS8 and getting each others messages on our iphones and ipad. How can I split the account safely as well as protect icloud backed up data?

    Use different Apple IDs for iMessage (and also FaceTime) to avoid getting each others text messages (and FaceTime calls).  One of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (and Settings>FaceTime), tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  You can continue to shared the same ID for the iTunes store and other services.

  • Why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad

    why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad same with face time

    I looked into your question and believe I may have a solution for you.
    Your iMessages likely aren't syncing because of a bug in iOS 5. Syncing iMessages between iOS devices is supposed to happen automatically, but sometimes it does not.
    You could likely manually activate syncing by navigating to Setttings --> Messages --> Receive At --> Caller ID on both your iPad and iPhone and selecting your Apple ID.

  • I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentione

    I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?

    And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
    You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
    But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
    Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ?

  • Error message that my iPhone and iPad "can't be used

    I have just installed the latest version of iTunes. I am getting error messages that my iPhone and iPad "can't be used because the required software is not installed". It asks me to uninstall and reinstall but I've done this and am getting the same message.
    Thanks.

    You have it set to automatically set the time and date.  To do that it has to be able to reach out to iCloud to get the time and date and something is blocking it from being able to do so.  So either need to fix the network/Internet connection or set it to not automatically set the time.

  • I accidentally sync both IPhones and IPad to my Mac, so all of my pictures keep saying on all of devices.  Is there a way to take them off all of my devices?

    I sync all my devices, both IPhone and IPad not realizing all of my photo's would keep saving everywhere.  I have resolved that issue, I just needed to find out if, there is a way to delete all of the photo's off both IPhones and IPad, but not from my Mac.  Is this possible?

    Hello, bethannfromct. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To remove synced photo albums from the device you will need to remove the sync preference in iTunes, see the steps in the first article below.  You will need to process these steps for each iOS device.

    Backup then restore the device...
    If you've been manually managing the device and your library doesn't contain copies of all your media then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    Hi F1N5G10, 
    Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like you don't have the AirPlay option on your iOS devices. Restarting your Apple TV and iOS devices was a good first step, and you can find some additional tips to guide your troubleshooting at this link:

  • HELP!!!! iMessages on iOS6 is sending messages from my iPhone to both my iPad, my other iPhone and other friends iPhones!  and receiving messages from friends on both iPhones and iPad.

    Why is the new iOS6 using iMessage and FaceTime and sharing messages across all iPad, both iPhones, and friends messages coming in are sent to all units?  SHARING???  How do you fix this?

    HI,
    On the iPhone and iPad you can "turn off" the Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Received At (and possibly) > Caller ID.
    iOS 6 will delete the email/Apple ID across all devices (you get a warning) but presumably Messages is either left alone on the Mac or you add the ID back in again.
    AS has been said you can then set up each device with it's own Apple ID

  • Messages aren't showing up on both iPhone and iPad Mini like they used to -

    everyone in the Apple Store said that it's probably the software on the Mini.  I already toggled on and off. also reset the Mini.
    I don't have time to make an appointment with the genius bar, so I thought I'd check here.  Thanks!

    Two other things I would suggest are
    1.  Log on to the Apple ID website and make sure the email associated with your Apple ID is there and is consistent with the email addresses in the iMessage app on both the iPhone and iPad.  If you update or change this information, be sure to log out of iMessage on both devices, and then log in again so the devices have the updated info.

    2.  Make sure you've added your email address to the list of "Receive At" addresses on the iPhone.

  • Mail on iMac not accessing MS Exchange server but both iPhone and iPad access the same account with no problems.

    I have been using an iPhone and iPad to access my work emails via our MS Exchange server for a number of years now with no problems at all.  I recently replaced my home PC with an iMac (first Mac I have owned) but cannot get it to communicate with the exchange server.  I've checked and re-checked the information on the iMac and my iPad - I even deleted the mail account on the iPad and input the details concurrently with setting up on the iMac - but the Mac will not access the exchange server.
    I receive the message "The Exchange server "---------------" rejected the password for user "------"  Enter you password again or cancel."  I am using the correct password.  iPad and iPhone are logging on using that password fine.  iMac just ends up repeating this message.
    Our IT support at work assure me that there is no reason from their end for it not to work, and reasonably point to it working using the iPhone etc.
    I'd be extremely grateful if anyone can provide a solution to this basic, but extremely frustrating, little problem.

    iPhone and iPad use a different way of accessing the server.
    I don't know the exact details, but we are using Zarafa instead of Exchange and have the same problem:
    iPhone and the likes can connect to Zarafas z-push interface, which is some identical interface to the native Exchange interface, while the desktop e-mail application tries to interface with the web front end (via http) of the server.
    These are completely different setups and it depends on the actual installation of the server to get this going.
    So, you will most likely need different access parameters for the desktop - and the web mail feature has to be enabled on the Exchange server.
    In my opinion using the web mail interface is just silly. On the other hand, the native protocol has less features comparedto the web front end, so you are somehow stuck with sins of the past.
    Good luck!
