Why do text messages appear on multiple apple products
We have an iPad, an iPad mini, and iPhone. When I text my husband the text message appears on the iPad. When my daughter texts with her iPad mini it shows up on my iPhone. Help!
Use a different email address (free gmail.com?) for each individual device.

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.
You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

when i send a text message with my new iphone 5 to my wife who is now using my old Iphone 4 we both receive the message. How is this possible? Also she receives all text messages sent to me. She obviously has a different phone number and a different provider

I can't receive text messages from a second iPhone on my account?
I can't receive text messages from a second iPhone on my account? I was told by AT&T to disable iMessage. Now the second iPhone on my account doesn't receive my text messages. Never had this problem before the last ISO update. Help!!
So listen to them.
Disable iMessage. reset network settings. Enable iMessage again. -
I'm not receiving text messages on my new iPhone. What's wrong?
I'm not receiving text messages on my new iPhone. What am I doing wrong?
Nothing so far, other than to look for answers. I'm a newbie to this. I can successfully send messages, but I can't receive them, other than an initial message from my cell phone carrier confirming my plan with my new iPhone 4S.

I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first phone?
it's meant to work like that
so if you receive a message on your iphone you also get it on your ipad or ipod touch
to avoid it use separate appleID for each device
or turn off imessage on 1 or both devices in their settings
but that will not fix the issue that 2 devices using the same appleID will never be able to facetime eachother
the appleID is a unique handle for 1 user only -

can I get the same text messages on both my iPhone and my iMac
It seems that my Mac is getting them and they dont show up on my iphone.Hi julian KAYE!
You will want to make sure that both your computer and phone have all options checked in the “Start new conversations from” section in your Messages settings:
iOS: Using Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3529
You can change the address that new iMessage conversations are started with in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start new conversations from. Note that this setting applies only to new conversations. If you would like to change the address from which messages are sent, first change this setting, and then delete the existing conversation and start a new one.

Is there a way to restore text messages back to my iPhone 5s version 7.1.1? I have several text messages that have been deleted somehow and I would like to restore them to my phone.

GMHi

My employer and I both have iPhone 5. We both recently updated as recommended. Now we can no longer text each other. I can text and receive from other iPhone users. Any ideas??
Well, that didn't work since I am already using my appleID for both FaceTime and iMessage but i did see the option to send as SMS when iMessage not available. so I am now able to send to him but I don't know if he can send to me. It's a start. It is only with his phone. His wife has a Galaxy and they are both on AT&T and she can send and receive. I am on sprint. If that info helps

Is there a procedure for printing out text messages received on my Lumina 822?
I have attempted to research an appropriate procedure for printing out text messages received on a Lumina 822 without success. Has anyone been successful in performing this type of task? Thank you!
Super_Dad_of_twins That's a great question. Many people are looking for ways to print text messages. What we can recommend is that you forward the text to your email account and print them that way. You can research third party applications for other options besides email. Please keep us posted.
