Dual text messages

Anonymous — Wed, 31 Jul 2013 19:24:05 GMT

Yesterday after buying iPhone 5 and going into the O2 shop, having my contract swapped from my 4 to the 5, phone number moved over to the new sim. I had a new pay as you go sim put into the iPhone 4 so my other half can use it.

I now have a problem which isn't detrimental, but quite annoying. When I send him a text from new phone with new sim and number transferred, not only does the text go to his phone, as it should do, but I get the text on my new phone as if someone else has sent it to me, any help to resolve this please?

Ate you both using the same Apple I.d

Delete the apple I.d from the old iPhone and ask him to input his own.

From memory as I don't have an iPhone in front of me, you need to tap Settings and then in turn go to iMessage, App Store and iCloud and sign out of each then sign in with his own AppleID

Settings, iTunes & App Store.

Tap on the Apple ID.

Tap on sign out.

Go back and tap on Apple ID section and select sign in and sign in with your Apple ID.
