so I ran into an issue recently while
using an iPhone I decided to set up my I
messages on my macbook pro now the idea
being that if you set that up
anytime someone texts you through I
message which is anyone with an iPhone
for the most part you can actually
respond to them from your desktop
computer with the real keyboard and all
of that fun stuff
so I set it up but it started to work
but there was an issue every time now
that someone got a text message from me
that was using iMessage it now showed my
email address instead of my contact name
in their phone my phone number etc then
if I didn't have iMessage is enabled and
it set a text message say for example I
had bad service or they didn't have
signal and instead of text it would show
up as a completely different thread so
you'd have my name with all of my SMS
text messages and then my email address
with all of my messages and it was very
confusing for a lot of people especially
the ones that didn't know my email
address so I try to figure out how to
fix this now there might be a better
solution to this but if you have also
run into this like I have here's a quick
way to get rid of it go in to settings
then you're going to go to messages send
and receive tap your Apple ID sign out
and go back back and you're all set
and there you go now your text messages
and your I messages will all come in the
same thread there won't be the confusing
email problem and any of that stuff if
you do have a better solution for this
because I'm sure there is one feel free
to reach out to us on the in the
comments underneath this video on our
site or on any of our social networks
and we'll be happy to update this do a
new one and just kind of love to hear
how you guys fix it so do that and
otherwise I hope this is helped
