iOS 6 Problem?

[Dare57]

Recently, my brother and I both update our iPhones to iOS 6 and when this happen, we believe my brother accidentally set up something that connected my cell phone number to his phone. now, he recieves texts and can see my conversations with some of  contacts. I've tried deleting my Apple ID account from his phone, giving him his own Apple ID, setting up his own account, and adjusting his settings so that my number is not attached to is account, and yet he says hestill can recieve my texts. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it? If so, please help!

Hello ericlewis107

That means you need to update your mac with the new MAC OS. Until then, it won't let you install the new iTunes.

That is not possible. In order for him to receive text messages or anything like that, he would need your SIM card.

Have you tried a factory reset? Erasing everything off the phone and setting it up as new?

is the issue with text messages or imessages? did you share an an apple id on both devices at one point?

He said "he recieves texts and can see my conversations with some of contacts" If could mean iMessager but who knows.

Power cycle the phone and then reset the Network Settings. Sometime iMessage is retaining the phone number from the previous sim. Do this on both phones.

I have just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. When I connect it to my mac running 10.5.8 with iTunes running 10.6.1 I get a pop-up saying I need the new iTunes but when I downloaded it from the Apple website I got a pop-up saying my mac needs to be running MAC OS X 10.6.1 or later. Help me...

Did you try soft reset with power button+home button? 😄
