When I read my messages on my iPad it isn't recognised by mail on my iPhone and vice-versa, why not?

Your messages may be synced with your email server, but whether you have read it or not is device-dependent. That information is not synced.

TS4185 I can FaceTime my wife from my iPad , but she always receives my call on her iPhone( and vice versa). How can I call iPad to iPad?

receives my call on her iPhone( and vice versa). How can I call iPad to iPad?

Charlie,
You must have a separate and individual id for each of your devices. For her iphone it's the telephone number. For each ipad, you must have a separate and individual id also. The ipad id's must be an e-mail address. You cannot use the same e-mail address for both i pads, and you can not use the email address that you use for Face time log in. The folks I know, create multiple e-mail accounts on Yahoo to facilitate this requirement. These individual phone numbers and e-mail addresses should be put into your calling lists for your Facetime accounts.
So if you want to call your wife's i-pad you need to have the mail address associated with it on your ipad account and visa-versa. I guess you guys will need to make sure you know who's carrying which device...This modern electronic world can be a circus at times, even though it has its rewards.

TS3899 My ipad does not communicate with iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting should be changed?

My ipad does not communicate with my iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting needs to be changed?

It's my understanding that an iPhone can only sync with one computer. You need to choose one computer. Sounds like it syncs at work, but not at home. If you want to just sync it at home, then you have to make sure the home computer has all the info that you want on it, like music etc. Then you have to deauthorize the work computer for it to sync at home. When you connect it will ask if you want to set up as a new iPhone or restore from backup. If you don't have a backup on the home computer then either way you will be wiped clean. So any photos, contacts, notes etc you have will be erased. You would need to backup or copy your photos from your iPhone. When you connect it to your home computer, it will give you that popup message to open your iPhone files. Then you can copy those photos and save them onto your computer and sync them back in through iTunes.
For your contacts, do you use any type of address book? If so you'll want to back that up and then transfer to your home computer. For notes, you can just email those to yourself and then save that email. I use MobileMe so the contacts issue is easily resolved.

My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop?

My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop? I have already unchecked the "Auto Update Apps" button. It happens with all purchases in the app store and on iTunes. HELP!

I also think separate accounts is the way to go....if he is over 13yrs also remember if you do make an account for him and use your bank card all purchases will be charged to your card.

How do I get my iPad to show iMessages from my iPhone, and vice versa?

My iPad used to show the same iMessages as on my iPhone, and vice versa...and now it doesn't. I don't know whether it was an iOS upgrade that fouled it up or what, but I'd like to restore the convenience of seeing and responding to iMessages on either device. They both send and receive iMessages, but one begun on one device does not appear on the other.

I have the iPhone 4S and my daughter has the iPad 2, we share one Apple ID, is there anyway to stop her text messages from appearing on my iPhone and vice versa?

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.

Read e-mail in Mail appears as unread on iPhone, and vice versa, with IMAP

My Mail accounts are configured using IMAP. When I read an e-mail on my iMac or PowerBook, it appears as read on my iPhone. And vice versa.
Yesterday I changed my e-mail passwords with my website host. I updated my passwords in Mail and my iPhone too. While I'm able to receive and send messages from both computers and my iPhone, now when I read an e-mail on one device, it does not appear as read on the others.
Any idea how to fix this problem?
Thanks!

I just noticed that moving an e-mail from one folder to another on one device will be reflected on another one (although the message still won't be marked as read).

Can I use my iPad charger to charge my iPhone and vice versa?? Will it cause any damage?

Hi
I have an iPhone 4S and iPad 2 and have been swapping the chargers about when charging. Now a friend tells me that this isn't good and I should use the specific charger for each. Firstly, is this right??
Secondly, I now no longer know which charger belongs to which product. Does anyone know the voltage for each?? (I live in the UK, not sure if this would make a difference).
Thirdly, I also have a MacBook Pro. Can I charge my iPhone and iPad from this without causing damage?
Thanks in advance
Ben

iPad charger: 10 or 12W (Apple uses Watts)
iPhone charger: 5W
The iPad charger looks larger than the iPhone one. Additionally, the iPad charger can be used with an extension cable, unlike the iPhone charger. You should notice that the iPad charger has a detachable plug.
It is more than safe to use an iPhone with an iPad charger. I don't recommend the other way around (using an iPad w/iPhone charger) but the iPad 2 doesn't syphon power like the iPad 3/4 do.

When I use punctuation at the end of a line of text, it jumps to the front and vice versa?

This has been happening on and off for the past couple of months.
When I type a scentence that either begins or ends with any kind of punctuation, the punctuation jumps to the opposite side of the text.
ie. What's New? becomes ?What's New
Sometimes closing photoshop works to fix it, sometimes restarting my computer works, and sometimes it just stops on its own.
I end up having to creeate the punctuation in a seperate text layer and my layers end up a little messy.
I'm using Photoshop CS6. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I seem to have solved the problem, fingers crossed, but thank you for helping!
I'll post what I did here in case anyone happens upon this thread with the same problem.
Go to Edit > Preferences > Type - make sure 'Middle Eastern' is selected
If it's not selected, select it and restart photoshop. If it is selected, close preferences and move to the next step.
Go to Type > Lauguage Options - Select Middle Eastern Features
Go to your Paragraph Panel, and make sure this is selected:
That seems to be working for me.

I am unable to read PDF messages in my iPad

I am unable to read PDF messages on my iPad even though I do have the Adobe Reader installed.

Alec
Thank you for your quick response. Nothing happened when I opened it. Just before I posted my concern I registered for Adobe, and voila, I went to my message and it opened. Just think that it was meant to be.

When I read an email on my iPad it remains unread on my macbook. How do I get it to "read" the e-mail on both?

I ahve this problem too, my macbook is set up as an imap account for gmail, say I get an email and it shows as new in my gmail, iphone and macbook, and I then read it in my gmail, it is marked read on my iphone but stays as unread on my macbook.
This is really annoying as if I read emails during the day on another computer I can come back to them all being new on the macbook.
Is there a fix for this?

TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
Problem solved.
And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

I would like to delete emails on my PC when I delete them on my Ipad (and vice versa, if possible). How do I set this up? Thanks.

The ability to do that would depend on the type of email account that you have. If it is a POP account, it cannot be done. If it is an IMAP account, it should sync across devices automatically. If you are not sure what type of account it is, who is your email provider?

The inbox for Mac Mail lists every incoming message twice. When I delete a message it deleted both entries. I have tried the solution in "help" and it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

I am wondering if anyone is seeing my question? This is my first time and I am not sure if I am communicating correctly. If you are seeing the question above regading deleted messages reappearing please reply so I will at least know I am getting the message out.
Thank you.
