Houston (duh)
On my wife's iPad, even though I have iMessage going to her Apple ID and her Email, it still shows my contact info for the sender.
I can't get it to replace her contact info (top left 'bust' icon) in iMessage on her iPad.
When I first setup this iPad, I used my AppleID and contact info, but changed it, and all is ok except for that one thing.

Any ideas how to get it to know which contact is the author of the messages?

The weird thing? On my iPad, it shows her picture as the author, when I receive notes from her iMessage.

Tried that.

Essentially, it's the picture icon that it shows for me as the sender on her iPad. It won't change to her picture even though I've signed out, and signed back in as her AppleID, and associated email.

*bump* Same issue here, but for some reason it JUST popped up last night as a problem. Maybe it's a 5.0.1 bug...
