help my phone is sending my parents naked pictures oh god why

Story time. So a few weeks ago I got a brand new iphone 5s. I felt pretty fancy. I started taking pics with it testing out the new camera. Life was grand. What I didn't know was that because I had signed in on my parents ipad, my photos were being synced with it automatically. Which is lovely. Great functionality on Apple's part. Except when your parents are sweet, pure, and innocent fundamentalist christian parents and you're kinda into BDSM, open relationships, and posting on r/gonewild.

Well one morning the phone rings and my parents are curious which of the three girls they have pics of me with I'm dating. Fun times, panic mode, frantically check my phone to make sure there are no nudes. Sweet heavens, I'm in the clear. I don't know how, but clearly there was divine intervention and not a single naked pic was to be found. I take the necessary steps. I disable photo sharing/syncing on my iphone. I go into my itunes account and unsync every ipad that's in there. I even double checked to make sure my personal ipad wasn't getting photos from my phone. It wasn't, we're in the clear, life is grand and disaster was averted.

...or so I thought. Got a call from my mom this morning saying that I look wonderful naked, and that it must have been cold that morning I took that picture. Thanks mom. You're the best. So my question is - why are photos still being synced with their ipad? It's not linked with my account, and my phone is set to not share photos. Did I miss something, and if so why is my personal ipad not getting them but theirs is?

Thanks for ending my evening with a big laugh. Ain't Photo Stream, coupled with the 5s' outstanding camera, a great communications device? User uploaded fileUser uploaded file


All I can offer is that you go thru all sections of Settings and hunt down any and all AppleID's that may have snuck in there, cause you surely missed one.


I take it that the next visit to the parent's house will be ..... interesting. User uploaded file
