Q: My messages, contacts and photos now appear on my daughters , we have family sharing for music

MY daughter and I have family sharing . today a message popped up out of the blue and I clicked yes , it has now somehow linked my daughters phone to my ID. All my contacts, messages and photos are on her phone . We managed to get her contacts back but not her photos . All my messages appear on her phone when they come in or when I reply . How can we restore this ?

    Hello Nikicowburn,

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    If your daughter is seeing your messages, photos, and contacts on her phone, then it's likely you have signed in to Messages and iCloud with your Apple ID on her iPhone.  Simply sign out of those accounts to remove them from her iPhone.

     

    iCloud

    1. Tap Settings > iCloud on your iOS device. If you see the option to sign in, you can change your Apple ID now.
    2. Scroll down and tap Sign Out. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account. After you sign out of iCloud, you might not be able to access some of your data that's stored in iCloud until you sign in again. If you're part of a family, you'll need to sign back in to use Family Sharing.

    3. Choose Keep on My iPhone or Delete from My iPhone.
    4. Enter your password.
    5. Go to Settings > iCloud and enter your Apple ID and password.
    6. Tap Sign In.

    Sign in with a different Apple ID on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

     

    Messages

    1. Tap Settings > Messages.
    2. Tap Send & Receive. 
    3. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    4. Tap Use your Apple ID for iMessage.
    5. Enter your Apple ID and password, then tap Sign In.

    Take care.
