How do create a new email address with my iCloud account

This may be simple but as usual with these things you usually do it once and never have to do it again!
I have has my mac mail address @mac.com since idisk was launched and then added a family pack with addresses for my kids and wife and when icloud launched i migrated all the addresses with no problem - but one of my clients wants me to create a new @mac (or @me.com) email address specifically for my invoices to send to there on line accounts system - my question is how do create a new email address for free in icloud - is it possible?
I remember the family pack gave you additinal options to create up to 5 email adresses?  T
Thanks in advance - Allister in Scotland UK

This is the issue. They are telling you to get a specific email address.
If this address is already taken, then what?
Roger thank you that was the info i needed

    Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then setup iCloud with your new ID.
    You can't change the Apple ID for your iCloud account, you have to delete it.

    Hi,
    How do I remove an email address from my icloud account as I am no longer friends with this man and every time i type an s his email address comes up - I want this to stop

    If you haven't already removed the email address from your contacts in cloud, you may want to start there.  If that doesn't work, then you may be out of luck.  Unfortunately, smartphones remember things we don't want them to :-(

  • How can I get my email address by my iCloud accountant with the name is now an own icloud account without the possibility to get iCloud storage

    I have a email address . It is not possible to buy icloud storage for it or to add to my first account where i have plenty of icloud storage available.
    <Email Edited by Host>

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    If you have a (name)@me.com address which actually works then you have a (name)@icloud.com address as well, and and iCloud account. There should be no problem adding storage to it as long as you are signed into it as the primary account in System Preferences>iCloud on a Lion/Mountain Lion Mac, and iOS5/6 device or Windows 7/8 with the iCloud Control Panel.
    If this is an ex_MobileMe address which you never migrated to iCloud you cannot reactivate it, so the question is have you checked it actually receives messages?
    You cannot move such addresses from one account to another.

  • How do i change the email address for this iCloud account

    I have just set up my new iMac.  When asked for an email address, I set up a new one instead of using the email address used for my icloud used in my ipad.  How do I apply the old email address to icloud on the imac so that my calendars and email synchronise on all machines?

    Sign out in System Preferences>iCloud then sign in with the ID used on your iPad.

  • I want to change the email address on my icloud account

    The email address I am using at the moment will not be available much longer so I want to change the address on my itunes account (I can see how to do that) and also on my icloud account.  How do I change the email address on my icloud account?

    If your AppleID is a .Mac or .Me account then you can't change it. But it shouldn't go away.
    If it is something else you can. Just log in here (https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/) and manage your AppleID. Click edit next to the ID and you should be able to simply change it.
    Cheers.

  • How do i create a new email address?

    how do i create a new email address in Mail?

    Have you already established a new email account with an email provider such as Apple, Yahoo, Google, etc.? From the email provider you will need to know the email address ([email protected]), and the password for the account. If this is a common used provider such as iCLoud, MS Exchange, Google, Yahoo, or AOL that is all you will need to know Mail will fill in the rest of the information automatically. For other accounts you will need to know the acount type (POP3 or IMAP), the URL for the POP or IMAP server, the security type for the server, the URL for the outgoing email server (SMTP) and the security type for it. Don't panic over all this, most email providers have instructions on their site for setting up Apple Mail -- you just have to find it.
    Once you have the information together, open Mail then on the menu bar at the top of the screen select Mail > Preferences > Accounts. Click on the plus sign at the bottom of the list of accounts and start by entering your new email address and password. Mail will then attempt to fill in the rest of the information it needs. If it is unable to do so, you will have to fill in the information yourself hopefully following the instructions provided by the email provider.

  • Creating a new email address in GroupWise 7

    I have groupwise 7 and need to create a new email address. I have searched the on-line documentation and it says to use ConsoleOne. However, my GroupWise user interface does not the ConsoleOne. Can someone tell me how to get to ConsoleOne?

    * skhazra,
    I assume you are using Groupwise in a corporate environment, so best approach is to contact your company's Groupwise administrator.
    He can create additional addresses for you @yourcompany.com or he can tell you if it is possible to add an external mail address to your Groupwise client.

    You have now exceeded your iCloud storage, including an additional amount provided to allow you to continue receiving email. As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage. I have 20GB remaining.  WHat is the issue here?

    Today I received the same message but have 4.6gb available from a total of 5.0gb. I also received the same message when i first set up my icloud account and icloud was virtually empty. Unfortunately the only way i can see to contact apple is to pay for a telephone call. If anyone knows what is going on i would appreciate knowing.

  • How to get a new email address

    Hi. Can you tell me how to make a new email address? I think I mean alias. When I had my .mac account I could make up new @mac.com addresses (which I think just funneled mail on to my "real" @mac.com address
    I have had a look around in the new mobileme and I can't seem to find anywhere to do it. I'm really hoping it hasn't disappeared!!!!

  • How can I change email address on my ICloud account?  It won't let me change old e-mail address.

    How can I change email address on Icloud?  It won't let me delete old email address so I can enter new email address.

    Are you trying to change the email address which forms the login? Or the @icloud.com address you created when you opened the account? You can't change the latter.
    You can change the login address as long as it isn't an @mac.com, @me.com or @icloud.com address.
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

    Log in and click on your user name, then look at the upper the right side of the page.
    Click on the triangle to the left of the "More Resources" section.
    This will drop down, and give you options.
    Select User Settings.
    This will now open a page, and in the light blue type on top, follow it along to Contact Information, click on that, and change your e-mail address to what you want, and hit the blue submit button on the bottom right side of the page.
