If you share the same apple ID then they can use your phone numbers to receive and send messages.
Check Settings > Messages >Send & Receive.

  • How to stop getting text messages intended for another family member?

    Hi,
    I occassionally get a text message intended for another member of my family, and vice versa. When that happens we both get the message, and the other person can then see the rest of the thread. I think the problem is that we share 1 AppleID. If that's the cause I'm not sure how to correct it because we are also sharing all our app, music, and video purchases made with that ID. We are also on the Sprint network, if that is relevant.

    On each device: Settings>Messages>Send/Receive...edit here & just make sure phone number is checked, or that only one person uses the Apple ID. Either that, or you each get separate Apple ID's for iMessage, FaceTime & iCloud. you can continue to use the same ID for iTunes content.

    There is no need to keep re-buying it.

  • Why do I keep getting messages that Firefox has a serious virus and I can't bring up icon to check them.

    Why do I keep getting messages from Vista saying Firefox has a serious virus? Also I can't bring up the icon to let me do the scan.

    You should never respond to such messages as they are only scams to get you to buy their software.<br />
    If you install that software and "let it scan" then you will most likely get infected with malware.

  • HT3529 i am receiving messages intended for someone else and can also see their replies

    Hi
    I am receiving messages on my phone intended for the wife, but i can also see her replies to the person
    how is this?

    They are iMessages & this is happening because you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage, iCloud & FaceTime. One of you needs to get a separate Apple ID & use that for iMessage, FaceTime & iCloud. You can continue to use the same Apple ID for iTunes content, but for the rest you both need separate Apple ID's. You can create an Apple ID here:

  • I have a Laserjet 2550L. When I try to print 2nd time get message "Waiting for printer to become ava

    Laserjet 2550L being used with Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3. After turning on, it will print once. When trying to print a second time I get a message "waiting for printer to become available." I have to turn it off and then back on to get it to print again.

    Hum. Let's uninstall with the 'scrubber option' like this:
    1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller and click Continue
    2. Highlight your device on the left pane
    3. Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
    4. There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    5. Click Continue and let it finish
    Now, run a Software Update. This can be done by clicking the Apple in the top left of the screen then clicking Software Updates.
     Next, let's reset the printing system:
    Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
    - Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Default tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
    Let me know how this works for you.

  • Why do i keep getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on iMessage? All are sent to other iPhone/iPad users.

    For a few months now, I've been getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures to other Apple devices (iPhones, iPads, Macs), despite the recipient receiving them. So, even though the pictures are going through, the "Message Send Failure" notice keeps showing up. I checked with other people who have Apple devices and they also encountered the same issue whenever they send pictures (usually send an email to make sure it was received).  I thought when iOS 7.1.1 came out that it would fix this issue. Has anyone else encountered the same issue? Thanks!

    I started getting the error on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.x) several weeks ago - if not a month ago. Today I finally decided to run through a wholesale sign-out/sign-in process on all my devices (iMac, MacBook, iPad 1, iPad 3 and iPhone5) and it worked!
    I signed out of iMessage/Messages on all devices. I also deleted my iCloud accounts on all my devices (make sure you tell the software to keep local copies when you are prompted - relax, it all stays in the cloud, too) Then I signed back in to iMessage/Messages and then re-added iCloud accounts all around. I just sent a message with a photo attachment and did not get the "Not Delivered" message - yay!
    (FYI - even though I received the error every time I sent a message with an image attachment, the message still went through - very, very happy, though to finally get rid of the message...)

  • Why do we not get logging output for the clients?

    Q: Why do we not get logging output like #show log all | include <client mac address> for the wireless clients?
    A: When the clients connected to Bridge mode SSID, Firewall hits and logging does not work.  
    This is one of the limitations with bridge mode.  

    logical. fair. I can understand the confusion in policy  as another fine cloud service - DropBox - has a different model for increases in free storage amounts for one account = evangelism. As many policies as there are services probably.

  • Why can't I get messages on my iPad?

    My iPad (4th gen) is not getting messages that are only going to my IPhone 5S.  I used to get them on my iPad as well and I have noticed over the past month or so I don't get the. On my iPad as well.  I think it was after the last couple updates that this happened. Can someone please help?  I have turned off and on both my iPad and phone but to no avail.

    Thank you for the suggestion however it did not help.  I sent a message from my Iphone before turning the messages off.  It went through no problem.  I turned off the messages in my Ipad.  Then I turned on the messagges in my Iphone and waited till it was active then turned on my messages on my Ipad and waited for that to be active.  The latest message that I sent from my Iphone did NOT show up on my Ipad still....
    So I turned off my Ipad and turned it on again and did the same with the Iphone and still it doesn't show up on my Ipad messages for that person.  The person I am sending it to has an Iphone and Ipad too.

  • I am on a wireless network.  Why do I keep getting messages from iTunes stating that I am not?

    I am on a wireless network and keep getting messages from ITunes stating that I am not on a wireless network.  I know the wireless is working.  Itunes will not allow me to rent a movie until i get on the wireless network of which I am already on.  Help.

    I just bought two song without problem, then i tried to get the video of the week (free) in canada and I had the same message as you.
    the video is just over 50 MB, which is the new limit for file size for App on IOS over 3G and LTE.
    I tried on my iPhone same thing. I even put it in the Airplane mode, and then activeated the WiFi
    with the same result.
    I then bought another song, smaller than 50 MB and it worked.
    My video is not listed as Bought, and it is not available in the "Check for available downoload"
    Did any of you had tried to buy something under the size of 50 MB ?
    Try the free song to see if is it seize related.

  • Why can't I get sound notification for my email anymore?

    I am no longer able to get sound notification for send or receive email nor can I get sound notification for incoming phone calls.  What happened and is there a correction?

    Before doing anything else, is your ringer switch in silent mode?  I'd try toggling the switch a few times to make sure it's working.  The phone should vibrate when you move the switch from on to silent.  If it doesn't then the switch may be broken.
    Next make sure the volume for notifications is not off.  Check the Sound settings for this.  Changing the volume there should also cause your (phone) ringtone to play.  If it doesn't then there is something very wrong.
    The only other thing I can suggest if the above doesn't help is doing a hard reset of the phone.  Hold power and home buttons down until screen goes dark and Apple icon appears, then let go.
    If that doesn't work, then the only other thing you can try is doing a Backup and then a Restore in iTunes.  If that doesn't work, then there's a hardware problem.
