Two iphones, two different phone numbers, same apple id, will imessages work?

I have two different iphones on a family plan with verizon, phones A and B.  Each is associated with a uniqie Apple id, lets call those apple IDs C and D.  So Phone A has apple id C, Phone B has apple id D.  I'd like to register both phones to Apple ID C for in imessages, although the phone numbers themselves will continue to separately be registered to Apple ID C and D.  Once i do that, presumably all imessages sent to same apple id C's email address will appear on phones A and B.  But will imessages sent to phone B's phone number also appear on phone A, or will those only appear on Phone B?
Many thanks.

Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring.

    I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.

    Hi,
    There are two easy fixes to this.
    One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
    Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
    Hope this helps!

  • If I buy an iPhone 5s unlocked from a USA apple store will it work in the UK

    If I buy an iPhone 5s unlocked from a USA apple store will it work in the UK

    Only if it is unlocked, and they are not selling the unlocked iPhone at the Apple store yet.
    EDIT:  I'm sorry, I missed that you referred to iPhone 5S. There should be an unlocked 5S, and it could work in Malaysia, but probably not with all of the bands there. Also, the warranty for the device is good only in the US.

  • Why are my messages getting sent to two different phone numbers?

    My mom and I use the same Apple account for our iPhones and when we updated our phones for iOS 6, all of the text messages that I've been receiving have been sent to her iPhone as well.

    Tjmoo, did you find out the answer to your question?  If so, will you share?  I am having an issue where some of my messages to iPhone users go through as iMessages while others go through as text messages.  I am not sure why this is because the people I am sending them to have iPhones.
    Thanks!

  • In order to share music and apps but not calls and messages, should two iphones have different or the same apple id?

    My sister started an itunes account when we were younger and she first got an ipod. Later I got an ipod touch, so we thought it was smarter that I use the same account so we can share apps and music. Since then my sister has gotten an iphone, my mom has gotten an ipad, and i have kept my ipod, with all of our devices on the same account. Now I got an iphone, and im wondering if i should keep the same account or if now is a great time to get a new one. Im not sure if you can have both iphones on one account without confusion with messages and whatnot, and likewise im not sure if you can have two accounts with shared purchases. Any advice?

  • Two Different Phone Numbers

    It's not a serious problem but,
    When I phone someone my number ends in 5913 on their handset, but to phone me you have to dial 5914, 5914 is ment to be my actual number but when people try to phone me back on 5913 and the number isn't recognised...
    Solved!

    Hi
    Do you have a home hub with BT Broadband Talk, as it could be the case that you have a another phone number allocated to your hub phone.
    Do you have a phone plugged into a ADSL filter which in turn is plugged into a phone socket or does your phone plug into the rear of your homehub.
    Sorry for so many questions.

  • Can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  Yes, there is more to the story.

    I have an iMac, and iPhone.  I've had my Apple ID for a few years. 
    My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password.  I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
    So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID.  When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
    The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
    If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
    You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
    You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife.

  • If two iPhones are linked to the same Apple ID can the other phone see the iMessages I'm sending, received or both?

  • HT204053 Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services from two different devices - iPhone and iPad?

    Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services simultaneously on two different devices - iPhone and iPad? It seems those are competing to each other, and the services work on one of them only (iPhone).

    Many thanks, Sir! Both are mine and it's good to know that imessage can work on both with the same Apple ID. Will now have to find out why imessage stopped working on iPad when it started on iPhone (new). After exploring the forum I understand  that there may be plenty of reasons why imessage does not work, even though it worked previously on the same device with the same ID.

  • HT3529 will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id

    will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id

    It will. If the two phones are used by two different people, however, you will need to implement some careful management of your iMessage settings to ensure that you don't each receive each-other's messages. It is a much safer option to use different Apple IDs for each individual.
    On iOS devices, you are able to use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and Facetime, iCloud, and the iTunes and App Stores.

  • HT4623 I updated my iphone 4 and my daughter's ihone 4s.   Shared account - same bill, different phone numbers.   My texts are showing up on her phone, ex. to my mom (who we both have in contacts).

    I updated my iphone 4 and my daughter's iphone 4s.   It's a family share plan - same bill, different phone numbers.   My texts are showing up on her phone, and vise versa.    Only to contacts that we both have -  ex.    my mother      I'm sure I've done something wrong in the icloud share ........help.

    ON either device go to settings - message - send&receive - either uncheck or remove the apple id.

  • Forward two different dial numbers at the same time to the same destination

    Hello everybody,
    I need to forward two different dial numbers in the same phone (Cisco 6921) to the same destination.
    I'd change the phone if it'll be necessary.
    Forward from the end user web is not a valid posibility. It is neccesary to do this forward from the phone.
    Any idea, suggestion or testing scenario should be appreciated.
    I use CUCM 8.5
    Thanks in advance.

    you can mask the other number by using translation pattern
