Can I have two separate email addresses in my mail?

Hi,
Can I have two separate email addresses/users with my one email account without paying anything extra?
For instance: one email address with [email protected]
And another one at: [email protected]
And, if that's possible:
1. Does it mean paying extra because you are having two separate accounts?
2. Since it is on the same general account, do the emails and return emails show in the same location or do they show in a different place? For instance, if the 2nd user sends and email and someone returns it, will I as the first user name see both of those?
Thanks much,
Lee

You can have up to five additional addresses, but they are not separate accounts. They are called 'email aliases' and are simply extra addresses which feed into the main inbox (and please note that you cannot create any new @mac.com adresses, they will be @me.com). Please see here about aliases:

It's actually a good idea to give everyone an alias address rather than the main one, since if it gets spammed you can easily change it, whereas as you can't change your main address without opening a new account.
If you need extra email accounts then you could go for a MobileMe Family Pack. Of course you can always set up free accounts with Google or Yahoo.

  • Can i have two separate email accounts linked to my mail?

    As I am entering college this fall, I have received a new email address for the college that I am going to. I still would like to keep my original email address, but I also want to be able to check my new college email address very quickly. Is it possible for me to click on the "mail" tab and have access to both email addresses, yet have them still remain separate? I do not mean having one email forwarded to the other. Thanks!

    To add a new e-mail account in Mail:
    Open Mail.
    From the menu bar, choose File and then choose Add Account.
    Fill in your name, e-mail address, and the password to your e-mail account.
    Click on Create or Continue and then follow the rest of the on-screen instructions.
    For more information and assistance on setting up an e-mail account with Apple Mail, use the Mail Assistant at http://www.apple.com/support/macosx/mailassistant/. It's easy - simply provide it with your e-mail address and it will guide you through the entire process of setting up your e-mail account in Apple Mail.
    NOTE: You may need to manually provide your e-mail providers server information, such as incoming mail server, outgoing mail server, and port numbers. If you do not know this information, contact your e-mail provider.
    Hope that helps, have a great day!

  • HT4897 Can I have multiple icloud email addresses. i.e. one for me one for my wife?

    Can I have multiple icloud email addresses. i.e. one for me one for my wife?

    You can if you create two iCloud accounts.  Each iCloud account is only given a single email account.  (You can have additional email alias addresses, but they will still deliver incoming email to the same email account and inbox.)

    Can I have two separate iTunes accounts on the same computer?  My wife's music is much different than mine.  Can we have different iTunes libraries to work with on the same computer?

    Yes. Launch iTunes with the Shift key held down as needed, or use separate Windows user accounts on the computer.

  • HT2542 Can we have two separate itunes accounts using the same mac?

    I am wanting to download music to my Thunderbolt smart phone (i know, no iphone yet, next upgrade) and I want to use itunes to do it. My partner has an itunes account and I thought I opened my own itunes account, but apparently I didn't. I don't like the same music and only want to download music I like to my phone. Can we just have one account and be able to download checked music from the itunes to multiple devices?

    I'm confused

    Do you want one or two?
    By the way, and iTunes account is really the thing you use online to purchase music, not what you have on a computer.  You have user accounts on a computer, and you have iTunes libraries or collections of media.  You can have multiple user accounts on a computer.  You can have a single or multiple user accounts use a single or multiple libraries.  We need to know exactly what it is you have/want.

  • HT204053 can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    You can have only one iCloud "user configuration" per local user on the Mac. Who the local user belongs to doesn't mind. Since it's a local user it's not related with who actually uses it. So let's say you want to set up Photo streaming using your iCloud user, just configure iCloud (under System Preferences) the same way you did on your phone and you're done.
    But, beware: if you're only interested in synching photos, uncheck everything else when configuring iCloud on the Mac, otherwise you will merge, for example, your husband contacts, calendar and mail with those on your phone.
    If you want to avoid any problems you can easily create another local user on the Mac with your name, under System Preferences, System, Users & Groups. After you create the user, logoff. The Mac will ask if you want to disable autologin (since there's more than one user that can log in now), answer yes and you will be presented with a logon screen. Click on your account name, insert the password and configure iCloud to sync with your phone.

  • Can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes and no.
    There is no issues at all if you use two user accounts on the mac, each can sync with one of the accounts.
    If you are using a single user account, you can add the second account as a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts and calendars and you can then sync mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders from the second account, but not documents and data, back to my mac or photostream.

  • Can you have two separate iTunes files on one computer?

    I gave my daughters each an old iPOD. One is 20 GB and the other is 60 GB. I take an iBOOK laptop with me when I visit so I can update them. In the past, they shared the 20 GB iPOD only. Now I have a problem as one iPOD can store a lot more than the other. Is there any way to have two separate iTUNES files on one iBOOK computer, one with the songs for the 20 GB iPOD, and the other for the 60 GB iPOD?

    The problem with making separate accounts is that this is a laptop, so likely not a huge hard drive, and if the three iTunes libraries need to have a lot of the same music (because everyone or two or three like some of the same stuff) you end up with double or triplicate copies of the music on the hard drive eating up drive space. Since they don't use his laptop normally, creating more accounts (with all the associated files and drive space usage each account would eat up) it probably isn't worth it.
    Instead, the best approach is like Chris said, to make playlists for the girls in the main library and then set up the various iPod to either sync everything (if big enough) or sync only specific playlists (if not big enough).
    Alternatively, they can set their iPods to manual syncing and then when Dad is visiting they can hook up their iPods and "shop" the library and drag in whatever they want to add to the iPods and delete what they no longer want.

  • Can I have two enterprise emails accounts on my ipad if they both use MDM?

    I work for one company, and we contract to another.  As such I have two email accounts, two calendars, etc....
    Until recently this worked well with everything on my ipad,but recently my company upgraded their security to also use MDM, so when I try to install. The profile it fails since it recognises that the other exists.
    I've uninstalled both and started again, and it seems to only allow me to have one.
    Thoughts, help?....this is a big backwards step for me.

    Can I have two iCloud ID's on my iPad? Both my husband an I have accounts and share the pad
    Yes, you can have multiple iCloud accounts on the iPad but only one account will be the primary with all iCloud info.
    The other account will only use some of the iCloud info.

    Add the other iCloud account and you can see what will be there.

  • How can someone have my exact email address?

    I went to sign up for Facetime on my brand new iMac with my current email and Apple ID and then it asked if I wanted to use another email for folks to contact me on and so I entered it and then it said it could not verify the email address because someone else is using it! It is MY EMAIL ADDRESS how can someone else have my exact email address???

    I am having this problem as well signing up for iCloud on my iPad.  It's asking for an apple ID and it must be in the form of an email address, but both email addresses I use say "ID already exists".  Yet when I go to reset the password for either one, I never get the email.

  • Can I have two separate iTunes account on the same pad?

    My husband and I have two separate iTunes account. He has a iPad (his iTunes/icloud login) that I would like to be able to download movies on from our family account (my iTunes) but keep his iCloud messaging, etc intact on his iPad. Is this possible?

    No, you can only be signed into a single iTunes account at a time.  And once you download a previous purchase from and iTunes ID you can't switch to another ID to download previous purchases for 90 days.  However, you don't have to use the same ID for iMessage that you do for iTunes.  You can create a new ID to use for iMessage, FaceTime, etc., then go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (and Settings>FaceTime), tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.  Using different IDs for will keep you from getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

  • Can you have two separate iPods on iTunes without having the same songs?

    My husband and I both have iPods but we don't want to same music on them. Really we would like to have two separate iTunes, so that I don't get his music and he doesn't get mine. Is that possible or do we just have to manually sync them?
