Sharing the same Apple ID, iMessages?
So my family uses one apple Id which Is my dads. My mom uses iMessages for her iPhone 5 and I just got the ipod 5. I really wanna use iMessages but when I do, I get my moms messages and when I text someone it goes as her number. Is there a way to separate it, so I can use it but as a different number from my mom?
No. You have to get a new Apple ID to send and receive your own messages.

- Why is my Iphone not sending as Imessages and receiving iMessages from one person? I'm texting my wife and we both have iPhone's and she is getting the messages as an iMessage but the ones I'm sending her on my end show up at green. Sometime it will go as blue, get the little red exclamation point then send as regular SMS. I'm texting someone else too and she has an iPhone, and she is getting mine as regular iMessages and mine are sending as regular iMessages. Why aren't they sending to me wife as iMessages?
- When sharing imessages with other iphones, can they also see green non imessage texts too? My parents and I share the same Icloud account and receive all my text messages to keep and eye on me. I know they get imessages but can they also receive the regular text messages that get sent to non iphone users?
- Sharing the same apple id on iPhone? My dad and I have the same apple id. Last time when i downloaded kik, he found out and told me not to use kik. What else can he find out? What about contacts, notes, my viber & yahoo conversations, photos etc? I don't wanna get caught!
- Sharing music on different Apple IDs? My younger sister just got an iPhone and set up her own Apple ID for it so she can have her own messenger and that kind of thing. She has no music on it though, and wants to share music with me. The problem is, she has no computer of her own, so I don't know how to homeshare with her. All of the computers in our house are already associated with Apple IDs and don't allow her to have her own account on them. Any advice?
