Hi,
When I moved house, instead of moving my account, I have ended up with a new account. How do I move all my email addresses from the old account to the new one?
I have 2 BT IDs at the moment and wish to only have one, when the process is finished, but I dare not close one til I have moved all the email accounts ....
Anyone help?
Thanks

HT201342 I would like to transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to a different apple id. Is this possible?

How can I transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to another apple id?

It isn't possible. If you need to use a different iCloud account with a different ID as your primary iCloud account, you can still set up your other iCloud address as a secondary account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, signing in with your ID and turning Mail to on. It will be fetch rather than push email, however, as push is only supported in the primary account.

Have searched Forums for quite some time now. Cannot find a correct answer to: how do I prevent my old email address from appearing as the "from:" address when I use a "send this" link on a webpage/news article. The email window opens and automatically inserts my old Hotmail address instead of the Yahoo address I've used for a long time. (The drop-down won't let me change it or delete it.) Thanks.

Do you get a drop down list with suggestions if you clear that "from" field and click elsewhere on that page to move the focus off that field and then double-click again in that field or start typing the first letters of that unwanted email address?
Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop down list:
#Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
#Highlight an entry in the drop down list
#Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.

Transferring email addresses from one account to another

I'm not sure if this is a good place to post this but after spending a good bit of time on the phone with FiOS customer service and technical support I just feel like venting my frustrations and hope that maybe someone could give me a valid explanation of why this cannot be done.
To give a brief (hopefully) summary of what's going on...
My wife and I are currently in the process of moving from Florida to Maryland because of the current job market and economy situation. As always...the moving process has been a "blast". For at least a few months we will be "between" homes and will be staying with friends. Because of this we had to cancel our FiOS service (which I did last week and it will be shutting off sometime today). Since we've been very please with the actual service FiOS provides we have (or maybe I should say "had") every intention of signing back up with Verizon once we're in a new home in the Maryland area.
So here's where the trouble comes into play...I contacted Verizon to see if it would be possible to somehow transfer our existing Verizon.net email addresses from our account to my friend's account (the person I'm staying with). You would've thought I was asking for a year's worth fo free service. Initially I was told by customer service that this can't be done. They explained that an email address is like a phone number and two separate accounts cannot have the same email address. Thanks for the newsflash! I explained again that what I wanted to do was move my email addresses so they would now be associated with my friends account. This didn't seem like such a horrible request considering my friend pays for FiOS service and with that gets 9 available email addresses....and was only using 2 of them. She ultimately just told me it was something that couldn't be done. But she did inform me of the "Verizon Your Domain" service that would allow current FiOS subscribers to associate their Verizon.net email account with a new domain name that you create. It would cost $20 per year and would allow you to keep your Verizon.net email if you canceled FiOS service. This sounded like an ok option.
But still -- I was curious why I couldn't transfer email addresses. So I then contacted technical support. This time it was explained to me that an email address was like a social security #. It couldn't just be given to another person. Great analogies in use at Verizon....I give them that. I told the guy I was a fellow "techie" and asked him for a more detailed explanation. That's when it got good. That's what killed me. He spent all this time talking about ACL's and routing and how email addresses couldn't be moved because "you're talking about 2 million addresses". Long and short he was trying to say the Verizon email system was just too complex. Finally I told him that it had to be something that could be done....and his exact words were "well sure it can be done...but we're not going to do it if you're not paying for a service". Wow! Great response! I've been a paying customer of FiOS for about two years. I've had some form of service with Verizon for about 15 years (from phone service to mobile service with V-Wireless). I fully understand that I'm no longer paying for FiOS service. But my friend is. And he has 7 email accounts he's not using. So why couldn't they be moved? Because the system is too complex? Give me a break. Like this guy finally admitted...it boils down to money.
Finally I gave up. I told my wife that we'd just have to deal with switching to a new email address. Life will move on. She wanted to try the "Verizon Your Domain" option though. She started doing the process online...had some questions....and decided to call customer service. She got transferred around to three different people...the last of which told her "you need to call a different department" and then CLICK.
Great, great job Verizon. All I ask is if someone could give me some sort of response that makes sense. If you just don't want to offer the transfer option then tell me.
I expect to be in a new home within a month or two. And suddenly Comcast is looking very good.

Well, CS was right when they said that Verizon cannot transfer your email to another account. In order to do that they would have to overwrite the email of your friend ( I dont think your friend would apreciate that ). This is due to a limitation on the email system.
However, you may have another option. If you are going to be getting Verizon service again in the realitivly near future (4-8 weeks or so), Then after your acount is closed, contact tech support. If you get the right agent they will "enable" your email. That way you can continue to use it even though you dont have service any more. Now they cant do this for long but for temporary it can be done. Then once you get your service back, they can then move your existing email to your new account. (this can now be done as they will overwrite your new email with your old).
Now if your going to be without Verizon service for more than a couple months, you may be out of luck but this is one option
umm, oh bhoy!
In fact, a "repoint" of an email address CAN be completed onto another account AND it does not overwrite anything on the receiving account.    Each acount, whether its a FiOS account or a copper account, has an account number. The email address is assigned to the account number.    The email address can be "repointed" from one account to another, as an 'add-on' to the new account, then it can be 'repointed' back to another account later.    HOWEVER, the contract does say that you must have a valid account. AND, Verizon cannot (no company can) allow you to manipulate someone else's account.
as to the "after your acount is closed, contact tech support. If you get the right agent they will "enable" your email", well, the fact is that the account has to be provisioned to an address. So, though I have come accross accounts that seemed to still be "on" after the listed close date, it was not something that verizon's tier 1 tech support can effect (that's who you get on the phone when you call tech support) (note that 'sales' could not do this for you, either)   So good luck with that.
What happens is that Verizon will not allow anyone to take your email addresses for at least 6 months.
Before you cancelled you may have had an option to have a notice auto-replied to any email that gets sent to your email address, for a limited amount of time, like they can do with a telephone number ("this number has been changed to . . . . . ") that "this email address is temporarily suspended, or something. . . . I said MAY have had the opportunity. .. .   but if it was me, I would get to where you are going and make sure they have Verizon internet account already   and have them call verizon tech support (so they can verify their account info) with you standing there so that you can verify your old account info and immediately and plainly ask if you can have an email "repoint" done for you.

Move email address from one Verizon Account to another one

Can I move my email address from my verizon account to someone else's verizon account? If so, how and which group should I call to make it happen?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That would depend on who that "someone else" is and whether or not Verizon considers the relationship to be a valid (read: legal) one.
IF Verizon considers the link between the accounts valid, then you should just be able to contact tech support and get the email address repointed, but bear in mind that repoints only go primary to primary and sub to sub.

How can I remove an email address from one apple account and associate it with another?

I created an appleID account to use with the mac AppStore without realising i previously had an appleID account from my first iPod touch.
Now with OSX 10.8 I want to use the email address from the old account with the new account for Messages.app without having to manage 2 logins.
I've followed the steps found on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68 under the section "How to add an additional email address that is already associated with another Apple ID" but each time I attempt to add the removed email address from the new account to the old account the input box shows the error: Email address is already verified for another Apple ID.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and found a solution?

How do I copy multiple email addresses from an email sent to me into a new message?

Are they in the body of the mail?
Hold your finger down in that mail until the little blue bubble pops up. One of the options should be to select all. Choose that and all will be hilighted. then a pop up comes up to copy, choose that, open your destination and hold your finger down to get the paste dialogue.

Transferring primary email address from one account to another account. Possible?

Hi, I created my email address back in 2001 while still living with my parents. Since it was the first address to be created on the account, it has become the primary account address. Since then, I have used this email address for EVERYTHING. Credit cards, online subscriptions, social media, multiple websites that I operate... it is now a deeply-rooted part of my online presence.
However, I moved out and opened my own Comcast internet account in 2005, complete with a new primary email address. This hasn't been an issue, as my parents have stayed in the same place since then, and continued using the same Comcast account.
The problem now is that they are preparing to move in a few months, and their Comcast account will be cancelled (and my precious email address with it!) I'm hoping there is a way to move my old email (the primary email address on my parents' account) over to my current account. I have not yet contacted Comcast customer support, as I don't want to accidentally have one or both of the accounts involved cancelled!
I suppose what I hope to learn here is what I would need to do to make this switch happen. Who should I call (I've read that the basic Comcast customer service line may not be able to do much for me...)?

For this the account holder of the email will have to contact us to submit a transfer of email to a new account. If the names are different on each account, one of our advance techs will later call back and get both account owners on the line in order to authorize the switch. It can be done, but the whole process can take 3-5 days to be completed. Once ticket is submitted by call center agent, it usually takes 24-48 hours for the advance techs to contact you. Let me know if you need any more details on this. -FC

Help moving email addresses from BT dialup to BT b...

Hello,
I am currently helping a non technical relative of mine who is getting BT Broadband and currently uses BT dialup internet and I am trying to be prepared in advance of setting it up. They have placed the order for broadband and been given a new btinternet.com email address for the account. We are now waiting for a password to be sent and for the homehub to arrive.
My questions concerns their current dialup email accounts. They have two btinternet.com email addresses which are primary BT Yahoo accounts (I think that's the right terminology but I'm on a bit of a learning curve here myself). There are no sub accounts involved with this. BT told my relative that it is possible for her to move these email addresses over to the broadband account but did not explain how this is done. We want them linked to the broadband account so they don't get flagged as inactive when the dial up is no longer used.
Questions -
1. Do we set up the dial up addresses as sub accounts on the new broadband account or is it done some other way? Will we be able to do this? Because they are existing primary accounts I can imagine it not being allowed because the email addresses are already in use.
3. Over the years my relative has used both the btinternet.com and btopenworld.com versions of the addresees. I understand these are in fact treated as the same address. Is that correct or do we need to move both versions to the broadband account.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

I don't know if this is relevant but I have just moved from BT broadband to BT Infinity and my e-mail address has remained the same. Whether this will apply moving from dial-up to broadband I can't say.but as the other poster said, try contacting the helpdesk.

HT2623 Is there no way to permanently delete an alias email address from one apple id so its available for another apple id?

I have 2 apple id's (unfortunately), and the one i wanna get rid of has an icloud email address as an alias that i would like to use on my new apple id as a regular email. Is there any way to do this? I deleted the alias from my old account but its somehow still linked.

I'm afraid you can't transfer an alias (even if deleted) to another account, or make it into an ID itself; and once deleted it can never be reactivated.

I added new email addresses but one of the emails never created a sent folder, draft folder or trash folder. How do I get them added?

I have a total of 3 email addresses currently set up in Thunderbird. Two of them configured correctly with the inbox, sent folder etc. However, one of them is missing all folders except the inbox. It allows me to email out but then says its sending to sent folder but never does so because it doesnt exist so it never goes away until I hit cancel. When I go into copies and folders its clearly checked that all sent items should go to a sent folder. How do I fix this?
Thanks!
