Another Email Query, hopefully a bit easier to fix...

Hi all,
Just had BT Total Broadband activated, this morning. Everything running fine and dandy, good speeds, etc...
However....
My '@btinternet' email address does not work, obviously I need this to setup BTFon, Email Accounts, Security software and Digital Vault.
I tried logging into the BT/Yahoo webmail, and its telling me Im using an Invalid Email, Please enter a valid username, (e.g. [email protected]).
Am I being a bit hopeful, thinking everything will be setup today, and will have to wait a few days for this, or, do you think ive got a more serious problem?
Thanks for looking!

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
The email address may not wirk until late in the day, even up until midnight of activation.
As you have reported, it's now working - so no need to wait until the next morning to check, and contact the moderators for activation.
May I ask what package you're on ? If it's one of the "allowance" options, 10GB/40GB - then you might like to keep an eye on the online usage monitor. Have a look at my shortcuts (link below), choosing one of the options in 14d-14g to see which shows the figure. It might not be available on the first day.

    iTunes is updated and works fine and I am able to log onto my account. When I go to purchase a song, I get the error message "Your Apple ID has been disabled". I've tried different methods: changing passwords, making a new account with another email address, and emailing itunes tech support. I am curious as to how many others have been experiencing the same issue. When I googled the error, it seemed like it was happening extremely often with many people.
    We all love their products, but they always come with a lot of issues and horrible customer support.
    My apple Id is [email protected]

    My Iphone 4 is telling me the same thing and I believe I figured out what the problem is.  I had some fraudulent charges on my itunes account, so I call my bank and disputed the charges.  Right after I did that, I started getting the message "Your apple ID has been disabled."  I just realized today that the charges are not fraudulent, they are "in app purchases."  One of my daughters downloaded the game Top Girl which is FREE, but in the game Top Girl you use money in the game to purchase things.  It just so happens that the money you use to purchase things is real money MY Money!!!.  My daughter thought she was using play money in the game and had no idea she was using real money.  She spent $106.00 buying stuff.  Now I have to call the bank and tell them to release the hold and pay Itunes.  I'm hoping this solves the problem.  Here is the link to learn how to disable "in app purchase" on your iphone or ipad.

  • HT4436 I don't see the point of having to create another email account - could someone explain the thinking behind this please?

    For iCloud syncing there are a few items that require a new iCoud email address to be created (eg. Notes and email), whilst the majority of other options do not require this.
    My question is simply why do these items need yet another email address to be created?  I would have though the Apple Id would have been sufficient to hang everything together...
    If someone could explain the thinking behind this please I will hopefully be more comfortable with it and probably more likely to start using these features!
    Thanks in advance!

    If TCP port 25 isn't open, then SMTP services won't work.  That's the port that all SMTP servers use to communicate amongst themselves.    (Sure, you can change the port your SMTP server is listening on, but you'd also have to change the port processing on all of the other SMTP servers around — and if you did manage to implement that change everywhere, the local network folks would likely just block the new port for the same reasons they blocked the old port.)
    If you have a public static IP address and have correct forward and reverse translations — host domain to IP address, and IP address to host domain name — then you don't need and very likely don't want to run your own DNS server. 
    More to help you learn how these pieces fit together and not something I'd expect you would need given you have a public static IP and public DNS here is a detailed DNS server configuration article for OS X Server; enable Show All Records and it applies to Server.app on 10.7 and later.  If you have questions after reading that, I can certainly answer them and also update the article to try to reduce the confusion or answer the question.
    Your host didn't have valid reverse DNS, so you'll want to get that cleared up, and you'll want to get the port blocks cleared, or work with the local network folks to set up a relay through one of the existing mail servers.

  • How do I remove/delete another email address in  the window where I have to type in my Apple ID? The email address in there is not mine. Help please

    When I go to enter my Apple ID ( to update an application ) there is another email address entered which is not mine. So, even when I type in my correct ID , obviously my ID does not match this other email address. How did this 'other' email  address get there and how do I get this other email address deleted ? Than you for any advice.

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
              File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
              Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
              Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
              Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • Unity Connection 8.6.2 Forward vm to another email address

    Hey team!
    I have employees that I want the ability to forward voicemails to an outside email address such as [email protected]
    I do this currently for the users that I have NOT migrated from Unity to Unity connection.  The way i do it for Unity users is i create a dummy AD account that is the users 10 digit phone number.  On that dummy AD account I click on the exchange general tab then click delivery options.  I then set the forwarding address to something else such as [email protected]
    I want to get away from creating these dummy AD accounts. 
    In Unity Connection is there a setting that will allow me to create a user in connection but set a relay of that voicemail to another email domain?
    I have about 150 users that I would like to make this work for.
    Any insight is greatly appreaciated.

    I think I have found what I am looking for.

    I am trying to face time and imessage someone with another email address that is connected to my apple id but it is not working. Please help!

    You don't FaceTime with an email address. You FaceTime with an Apple ID. Apple IDs use, as the user name, an email address but they are not the email address.

    Hi JkeeneSoldano,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    From:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Can't set up another email for iMessage! Please help!

    *Yes. I will repost this discusion if it is sent to the second page with no reply.
    I already have two iPhones and an iPod touch, and a Mac set up on my iTunes account. The iPod and Mac each have their own gmail account they use to recieve iMessages (one of them is my Apple ID). The two iPhones each have their own phone number they recieve iMessages from. I now want to set up an iPad on that same iTunes account with iMessage with a third gmail adress to use. When I try to set up iMessage, I am shown the two gmails and phone numbers from my other devices but no option to add another email like all the tutorials say. Is there a limit of 2 emails or something? There is no way I am making a new Apple ID just for iMessage. I tried to look for the option in Messages and Settings. Please tell me if there is a way I can add a third email.
    10 points go to the first plausible answer!
