Alternate email address, allow sending from etc

I have an Apple ID and am happy with it.
However somewhere along the line I have created 2 alternate email addresses that are permantly fixed to Iclod account, Ipad and Iphone.
They end in .me.com and .icloud.com
I did this originally so my wife could share my email account but diferentiate who sent the emails, for example to her friends not mine.
She now has her own apple ID and wants to use them on her own device.
I have been to manage my ID but am unable to change them. I want to delete them and get a new icloud address.
Any help gratefully received

Thank You for the quick reply.
It does seem that is the only way after spending hours trying to solve this issue and failing.
Appreciate your time and the information

Event Invite - Select email address to send from

OK...this is close to my issue, but not the solution I'm looking for:
discussions.apple.com/message/7009550#7009550
Not to mention it's three years old....we should've progressed by now.
So, here's my issue. Basically I use iCal and Mail for both business and personal applications. I have a business email address and two personal email addresses associated with my ME card and being used in Mail. I have a number of calendars set up in iCal, but basically am only interested in dealing with my "Work" and my "Home" calendars. Is there a way for me to select (or set) which email address I send my invites from depending on which calendar I am using? i.e.: if I set up a meeting in my work calendar, I want it to come from my work email. If I set up a meeting in my Home calendar, I want it to come from one of my personal email addresses.
The closest solution I have found is setting the "send new mail from" field in Mail Preferences to the appropriate email BEFORE sending the invite. This does work, but is cumbersome, and not something I would readily remember to do every time. Not to mention that it is 2011....shouldn't the ability to select my send from email address be a basic function of iCal?

Thanks. That answers my question, but doesn't help my situation. Not much sense in having alias emails, other then with my MAC/MobileMe, if I can't use them from my iPhone. I have to wait until I return home to reply if I don't want to send from my main email.

Can't assign alternate email address for sending?

With my iPod Touch, running iPhone OS 3.1, I was able to assign multiple email addresses to a single account by delimiting them with commas. If I entered "[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]" for the "[email protected]" account, I could choose "[email protected]" or "[email protected]" from the "From" menu when I was mailing a message.
This appears to be completely gone in iOS 4. Is there any way around this? The only workaround I've found is to add "[email protected]" and "[email protected]" as new accounts in the "Mail, Calendar, Contacts" settings, but then I end up with duplicate emails since I route everything into the "[email protected]" account.
What I want is to be able to pull email from just the "[email protected]" account, but reply to and send new messages from the other two email addresses.
I can do this in Mail.app in OS X. Why not from the iPhone?

Anyone?

Mail: How do I chose an alias email address to send from?

Is there a way to chose from my alias email addresses, to override the default MobileMe account email address, when replying to a message?

If I have forgotten my security questions and am not given the option to send them to an alternate email address because I didn't have one set up at the time, how can I get passed this point? I'm sure I'm blocked out at this time from trying.

HT5312 I don't have an option to send to my alternate email address, what do I do?

I'm trying to download a ringtone directly from my phone, which I've done numerous times, but now I have to remember my security questions and I can't. I tried every option I can think of and for some reason they aren't working. I have an alternate email but when I've typed in the wrong answers for the security questions, there isn't an option to send my security question answers to the alternate email. Is there anything else I can do??
Thanks,
Sabrina

An alternate email address is not the same as a rescue email address. If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within, I think, about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

Someone has captured my email address and sending emails saying they are from me.

Someone has captured my email address and sending messages out to people in my address book making it look like they are from me. It's for an advertisement on a webpage. How do I get it to stop?
This has not happened to me in over 3 years when I switched to apple products.
Anyone that can help me clean this up. Most of the recipients that the link above is being sent to are simply deleting because they know if I was the one asking them to check out the link I would tell them first what it was about before they open it. There is NO message in the email JUST the website. This is frustrating for me...brings me back 3 years to anti-virus protection with Windows.
Thank you,
Bernie

You may have been infected by a Botnet:
Simply put, a bot – which is short for robot – is an automated computer program that allows outside sources to control computers remotely without the users' knowledge. A botnet is a network of hundreds or thousands of computers infected with botnet malware that communicates covertly with a command-and-control (CnC) server run by a type of cybercriminal called a botmaster. Unbeknownst to the individual users, their computers are linked in a rogue network which the botmaster can utilize for a variety of nefarious purposes.

How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear. Help please!

How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear. Help please!

As with the Mail app on a Mac, the iPhone's Mail app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which is separate from the address book or contacts. The email address autofill feature when addressing an message pulls from Contacts and from the list of previous recipients.
Different from the Mail app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients with iOS on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to the address book or contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
The only way to purge the list of previous recipients at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, which will start being re-populated again with every sent message.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

Can I view iTunes receipts from my alternate email address if I enter one?

If I were to enter an alternate email address into my account information, could I also view receipts from that email, or would it just be sent to the primary email? Thanks!

Receipts get sent to your primary email.

There is no way for anyone on this forum to assist you. Apple will also not assist you. If you purchased the device thru ebay, file a claim. If you purchased it some other way, I'm sorry. there is nothing anyone can do to help you.

How do I choose which email address to send a calendar invite from?

I use iCalendar for business. I don't want to send company calendar invites with my personal @.mac account. Years ago I had a Bberry and could choose which email address to send it from while creating a meeting in the calendar. Is this not possible with Apple Technology?

Open Mail app. Click where it says mail on the upper left corner of the screen, choose preferences choose accounts tab on the top then select the account you don't want anymore and click the - button at the bottom.

HT201363 why my Alternate Email Addresses does work on my send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.?

why my Alternate Email Addresses does work on my send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.?

Because an alternate email isn't the same as a rescue email. If you can't get an email sent to your rescue email address or don't have one, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
