Used email to text from non-Apple account on a PC, recipient's reply went to my iMessage. She just responded to what I sent.

I'm at a loss on how to troubleshoot this. It's a big deal because this is a client and prompt communication is key - hard to do when replies are heading off to wherever.
The original email was sent from an AOL account on my desktop. The recipient was entered as [email protected], the from was my non-Apple email address. Her response showed up only on my phone as an iMessage, and she is certain that all she did was reply to my text.
What do I even check in this case? Is there a setting on her phone that might cause this? I don't have her phone specs available, unfortunately.

It is confusing!
The original message went from my email account ([email protected]) to the recipient [email protected] Our office frequently uses this method to send text messages to clients.
She hit reply to that message, and instead of going back to the orignating address (which is typical, we do this all the time), it went to iMessage - even though my iPhone had not been in any way involved in the exchange.
I just disassociated my email address from iMessage using the directions you gave. I believe that should fix the problem.
Thanks for your assistance!

  • Can I send iTunes gift to a recipient email address which is non apple account email (I.e. Comcast or Gmail) as long as the person has an apple account and device to redeem it for use.

    Can I send iTunes gift to a recipient email address which is non apple account email (I.e. Comcast or Gmail) as long as the person has an apple account and device to redeem it for use.

    Yes - gifts are sent to an email address not to the iTunes account, the email has a redemption code in it which the recipient then redeems. The recipient needs to be in the same country as yourself, he/she won't be able to redeem it if their account is in a different country's store.

  • Until yesterday I could text to non-Apple friends from both my iPhone

    Until yesterday I could text to non-Apple friends from both my iPhone 5S (iOS 8.1.2) and my iPad Air 2 (iOS 8.1.2). Then for several hours last nothing was deliverable unless to another iPhone or iPad. Today, once again, I can text to non-Apple friends from my iPhone but not my iPad. On the iPhone there are buttons for MMS & SMS messaging, but not on the iPad. What happened?
    Thank you,
    bobbi

    I was having this problem today with my 6 plus and my air 2.  Additionally, I kept getting the message that iMessage needed to be turned on to send my messages.  It was turned on in both devices.  I wonder if there was a problem at Apple.  My carrier is t-mobile, perhaps there could be a problem there.

  • Do you need to be constantly connected to wifi or 3G to receive texts from another apple user using iMessage?

    Do you need to be constantly connected to wifi or 3G to receive texts from another apple phone user who is using iMessage?

    No.
    Much as a missed call while not connected goes to voicemail, a missed text or iMessage while not connected will wait until you are connected, then be delivered.
    There is one exception, however.  Many cellular carriers do not support iMessage.  So if you are connected by cellular signal and not WiFi, you will receive the message as an SMS text message using your cellular carrier.

  • HT1918 How do I remove my credit card details from my Apple Account?

    How do I remove my credit card details from my Apple Account?  I do not like the fact that Apple does not provide a clear and simple option to 'Delete a payment card', I definitely do not think this is legal.
    I ask this question because I recently received a spam-like message from Apple asking me to log in and update my account.  I went in and did that, but I would like to remove credit card details from the account and it is horribly stubborn about holding onto my credit card details.

    Hi there
    Thankyou for the latter responses from ssschmidt and limnos - as it happens I figured this out by myself.  Yes, it appears that Apple will not let you delete an account UNTIL YOU HAVE VALIDATED THE CARD DETAILS.  That it, until you have given them all of your credit card details - even down to the 3 digit validation number.  Only once you have provided this information does the 'Payment type - NONE' appear.
    I figure however, that you can just put any 3 digits in, ie, it doesn't need to be your actual 3 pin code, for the system to let you pass to the NONE option.
    As I said before, I still think this ***** the big one.  Apple should not be insisting on getting customers' bank details in this way - especially since there are these PHISHING emails floating around which look extremely like official Apple communications.  It was the receipt of one such email that alerted me to this issue in the first place - thanks Limnos, I didn't respond :-)
    This is the first time I've used this 'user to user' set up for a query like this, and I totally think it's ridiculous. This information should be readily available from Apple - no wonder their profit levels are so astromical!
    Happy Mondays y'all!

  • Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    You don't have to take her off your account exactly: she needs to sign out from your account on her computers and devices. Then she can obtain an Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com and use it to sign into System Preferences or Settings>iCloud.
    However, there are some issue about this. If she has been syncing her calendars and contacts to your account then the data will disappear from her devices, but remain on your account. Individual calendars can be exported  as .ics files and reimported into her account, but if she has her contacts mixed up with yours she will have to enter them individually in the new account (or export yours, import them into hers, and delete the ones she doesn't want.
    More intractable is the email issue. She cannot move an address from your account to hers, so if she has been using a alias on your account to have her own address she cannot transfer it. She will have to create a new email address.

  • HT1386 Can I move music from one apple account to another?

    Can I move music from one apple account to another?

    Typically not.  Consider the case where you used an Apple account (call it A1) to purchase songs from iTunes.  Now you are interested in moving your music to account A2.  Well A2 does not own the music - A1 does.  So that's a problem.

  • Does anyone know how to delete credit card details from an Apple account?

    Hi not sure if this is posted in the right place but i'll give it a go anyway.
    Would anyone know how to delete credit card details from an Apple account?
    Someone posted selecting 'none' in the payment section would work but i logged into my account online on a computer there aren't any options at all to do this.
    I tried hitting edit but there isn't a delete button.
    If anyone knows any help would be most appreciated!

  • HT5622 how to disconnect a device from your apple account (multiple devices in one account)

    I lost my ipod, how do you disconnect it from your apple account?

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • How do I remove my credit card details from my apple account?

    How do I remove my credit card details from my apple account?

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iPad then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

  • HT1420 how do i move a purchased song from one apple account to another

    how do i move a purchased song from one apple account to another

    The short answer is that you can't.  Purchases are tied to the AppleID used to buy them.  AppleID's cannot be merged, and the content cannot be transferred.

  • Why can't I text with non Apple equipment?

    Why can't I text with non Apple equipment?

    You can with third party apps. You just can't use Messages in order to text since it only works with other iOS devices and Macs running Mountain Lion.

    I have an iCloud account that is different from my apple account. How can I recover the forgotten password

    Hello Bgenie
    If you have forgotten the password to that Apple ID, then go to My Apple ID and you will see and option to reset your password. You will need to answer the security questions or if you have a rescue email address set up you can get it sent to that email to reset the password. Check out the article for more information.
