How to not share messages between iphones on the same plan after updating to ios 8?
Today I updated my iPhone and my moms iPhone to ios 8. Afterwards she started to receive some of the messages from my phone on hers. How do I stop this from happening?
Haha that really sucks. Maybe the easy way would be to get a texting app and use that until you can figure out the settings. A surefire way to get an answer on that is to just call apple and tell them that you don't want your mom getting your sexts. I'm sure they'd be happy to walk you through the process of fixing this.
Make sure that both devices aren't using the same imessage account
Turn off icloud on your phone or just simply make a new apple account.
You need to use a different apple id in order to avoid this. You can create a free apple id by using this apple help article: http://support.apple.com/.../kb/HT2534
- Will updating to iOS 7 delete text messages? I know I'm late updating and all but I haven't had this phone long, since I replaced my old one, but I have an iPhone 4 and I'm planning on updating to the iOS 7.0.4 that is available. I have text messages that I've kept for a while because of information or I'm too sentimental for some to get rid of them (yeah, judge me) but I don't know if updating now will delete those (I'm hoping not). Also, will it delete my contacts? I hear it has for some people.
- Will all data share across devices on iPhones with the same Apple ID? My dad recently got an iPhone 4s for his birthday and I currently have an iPhone 6. My iMessages went on to his phone without me putting on any sharing settings. I do not have iCloud or anything like that. I was wondering if any other things will go through on his phone
- Why can't I use @icloud.com email address after updating to iOS 6? I've updated my iPhone to iOS 6 and according to Apple I'm supposed to receive an @icloud.com email address that matches my @me.com address. But why can't I log in with the supposedly new address?
- My mom and i got the same phone and same plan yet her internet loads all the time and mine never does? Two iPhone 7+. Same unlimited data plan. Yet literally no matter where I'm, nothing that uses data loads unless I'm connected to Wi-Fi. Yet my mom's internet loads no matter where she is. It's even happened that we're in the same place trying to load the same thing and hers loads while mine doesn't. Yes, I have my data turned on. I've made sure all my data settings are identical to my mom's. So i really don't know what could be causing this.
