Can you use an .mac alias as "from" email address in .mac account?

My .mac account is in my full name @.mac and MAIL automatically uses that as the "from" email address when i send mail. Is there any way to use one of my .mac aliases instead?

For the email account preferences for any email account, there is a Name field which you can enter anything to appear as your name when sending a message with the account and there is an email address field for the same. With a .Mac account, you cannot enter a different email address to appear as the sending email address for a message sent by the account.
You can send messages from your .Mac account alias email address but the name you have entered for the Name field under the Account Information for your .Mac account preferences will be the name shown with the alias email address when sending a message with the alias.

How can I find out the mail server from email address?

Hi:
How can I find out the mail server from email address?
for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
THANK YOU

You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

Can you use a subquery when importing from a file?

I was wondering if the DBMS_DATAPUMP API allows using a subquery (DATA_FILTER) when executing an import from a file?
I am unable of limiting my data when creating the export file because my subquery requires a database link, which is not an option on the server I'm working on. So I'm wondering if I can limit my data on the import from a file, rather than the export?
Thanks for any advice...

I was wondering if the DBMS_DATAPUMP API allows using a subquery (DATA_FILTER) when executing an import from a file?From the documentation I would say yes:
SUBQUERY:
Specifies a subquery that is added to the end of the SELECT statement for the table. If you specify a WHERE clause in the subquery, you can restrict the rows that are selected. Specifying an ORDER BY clause orders the rows dumped in the export which improves performance when migrating from heap-organized tables to index-organized tables.

Can you use iCloud to transfer data from one iPod to another?

Hi, I'm a newbie to Apple. I'm getting another iPod touch with bigger storage, the only data I care about is Clash of Clans. Can I use iCloud to back up the data, and restore it to the iPod I want? Please help, I don't want to lose my data without the right directions.

Yes. Back up your current device to iCloud, the when setting up your new one, restore it to this backup. It will include your apps and app data (as well as other data and settings). See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

Mac Mail Conversations - Can you turn it off for a Specific Email address?

In Mac Mail 6.2, is there a way to leave "Conversations" ON as a default, but turn it off in regards to a certain email address?
Example:
I resell printing and have multiple receipts coming from one supplier(One Email address and the same Subject Line). My problem is it is grouping those receipts into the same conversation, but each of these should be seperate because they are for more than one customer.
Any help would be great. Thanks

Not exactly, but the following workaround might be useful to you:
* Create a new mail folder (either in an IMAP account or in "On My Mac").
* Set that set conversations off for that mail folder.
* Create a mail rule to move messages from your problem supplier to that folder.
Downside: You have to remember to check that other folder.
If it is important to you that the messages be available in the unified Inbox, you might be able to do something similar with a separate mail account.

How can I convert an iCloud alias to an email Address?

We created an email alias for my wife to use as part of our MobileMe/iCloud account.
Now we want to convert that over to a separate email address as part of our family plan.
How can we do that?
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, you can not do that. The family account and oppotunity to covert an alias to a new separate account were features of MobileMe. Since iCloud launched, there is no family account anymore and you can not convert an email alias to become a new iCloud account.
If you want to create a new account for your wife, then follow these steps:
Mac (Lion + Mountain Lion): System Preferences > Mali, Contacts, Calandars > + to add a new account > iCloud
iPhone/iPad (iOS 5): Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account... > iCloud

HT204053 My apple id and icloud account merge together, i want to delete my icloud account because of some problems in name but i cann't delete my icloud account also and rename also can you give me suitable answer on my email address

My apple id and icloud account merge together, i want to delete my icloud account because of some problems on name so i want to change name or delete my icloud account .
<Subject Edited by Host>

You can't delete an iCloud account.
Once it is attached to an AppleID it is attached forever.
You can edit the name on your iCloud account or setup an email alias if you made a mistake with the email address.

HT204266 When I want to get to app store doesn't use my primary app id(current email address) displays old account. Went to manage accts and thought I set all to current and canceled old. Still displaying old acct to sign in. Help?

When I want to get in app store always displays old app I'd. I went to manage acct and reset everything to use current primary email address. How to change apple id when signing in to app store?

Go to the app store ( or I tunes). At the bottom of the screen, look and see what account it thinks you are using. If it is the wrong one, just sign out, then sign in with the new one.
It thinks you are whatever account downloaded or updated the last app. You may have some apps on your machine purchased under the old account, and that is what it is seeing.

Can you sync Reading List to iOS5 from OS 10.6 Mac?

I am running an iPhone 4S and the MacBook Pro with OS 10.6, which doesn't use iCloud. I have Safari 5.1.2 on the laptop. Shouldn't the Reading List sync anytime I connect the two and sync via iTunes? They don't, and it's annoying Thanks for the help!

hi Samberl
thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
Your suggestion sounds very promising - I didn't know about 'cloning'.
Yes the idea is to backup the laptop - I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically across to the new drive myself each day or two...
Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb ? = under the HD icon on desktop is written :
" 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free "
I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
When CCC site says it backs up the hard drive - would this mean all my files [over 100 gb] that are mostly in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon, would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ] ?
thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it.
It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!
