Can I sync multiple .mac accounts with my address book???

i have an idisk membership with 5 email accounts. i finally got around to syncing my address book to my .mac account. in doing this i found that i had to sync from my 'master' account. it worked fine, but when i sign on to one of my other .mac accounts my contacts are not there in the address book.
can i only sync to the master account??? if so, this really ***** because i have multiple email addresses for various tasks (business / personal / junk). i'm really gonna be bummed.
any help greatly appreciated!!!

    Can i have multiple iCloud accounts with the same Apple id

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, your ID is essentially your account. You can have email aliases and you can have multiple accounts, but I don't think that's what you are asking.

    Do you have a local network setup either wired or wireless? If so, then have both computers connected to the network. Enable File Sharing on both computers in Sharing preferences. Select the startup drive on each computer. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and check the box labeled, Shared Folder.
    You can now keep both computers in sync by using a third-party backup/sync utility that will work with a network setup such as:
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    Silver Keeper
    Retrospect
    Super Flexible File Synchronizer
    Synchronize Pro! X
    Synk Pro
    Synk Standard
    Tri-Backup
    Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • Can we use two icloud accounts in the address book app in Lion?

    The answer is yes because we are doing it for months in our business. This way we can share our business address book between our 3 Mac and iphone and ipad and still have our private address books on all those devices without sharing them. It seems however that the app Address book cannot understand the situation. When I select my business card in my address book and say that it is "my business card" it appears the same on my colleagues' computer. they have then me instead of them as their business card and when they open their session on their computer I'm there! It seems that iCloud hasn't been thought for the purpose of sharing address books. Can we have a business icloud that doesn't stick to one persone? Or can we have several "me" in an icloud address book? Is there any other way to share parts of an address book without sharing it entirely? We'd like that it works like in ICal.

    Currently, we don't have a Volume license. Basically what we need to achieve is a number of macs to have the same information particularly calendars, reminders, numbers file, and contact informations from one cloud. Without my manager's own icloud conflicting with his files or the public icloud.

  • How can I use multiple icloud Accounts with Fotos?

    Hello.
    Yesterday, my wife and I started using the new App "Fotos" on OSX and iOS.
    What I can't figure out, and where I would like to get some insight and help, is how we should use our icloud Accounts.
    How it is right now:
    - Wife (MacBook and iPhone)
    Has her own icloud-Account ([email protected]) for Backup (iOS) and Fotosync, Keychainsync, Bookmarks. 20GB iCloud-Account (18GB free).
    - Husband (MacBook, Mac Mini and iPhone and iPad)
    Has his own icloud-Account ([email protected]) for Backup (iOS) and Fotosync, Keychainsync, Bookmarks. 20GB iCloud Account (10 GB free).
    - Husband has about 400 GB of Photos from over 10 Years on Mac Mini
    How I want it to be:
    - Husband
    upgrades to at least the 500GB Account, to use for all 400GB of Photos and Backup, Keychainsync, Bookmarks.
    - Wife
    Has her own Account ([email protected]) for Keychain and Bookmark, but uses [email protected] on MacBook and iPhone for Backup an Fotosync, so that all Photos are stored in a single one family "container". All Photos in one Place without being able to forget to put them there.
    I don't see, how I can accomplish that, since only one "real" icloud account seems to be possible in iOS, so that if i put my account in her iPhone I would get the Photo and Backup I want, but she would not be able to sync her own bookmarks an keychain any more.
    Any thought on how to resolve this?
    Am I missing something?
    Thanks for your ideas,
    thomas

    Yes, you could have multiple iCloud accounts for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Safari, Notes, and Find My iPhone, but only one primary iCloud account for Photo Stream, Documents & Data, and Storage & Backup.

  • Can I sync my itunes account with an external hard drive to save memory on my computer?

    I have a computer with limited space, so I transferred my itunes library to an external hard drive.  Now my problem is syncing my itunes account on my computer with my itunes library on the external hard drive.  Can someone explain how to sync these two up?

    When iTunes launches it looks for a iTunes Library .XML file in your Music/iTunes Folder, if it's not there, then it creates one.
    So you got the entire iTunes Folder on the powered external drive (you also should have a backup someplace too)
    Now launch iTunes and then quit it.
    Look in your external drive iTunes Folder for a iTunes Library .XML file, copy that and replace the new one in your iTunes Folder on your boot drive.
    Now open this .XML file in a Text program that has "Find and Replace" ability, you have to take all the old pathnames to your content and replace them with the new pathname.
    For instance \Windows\Users\Mark\Music\iTunes Folder
    should now be something like this:
    \DriveB\MusicFolder\iTunes Folder
    Get the idea? your replacing all the partial pathnames to match the new drive.
    You need to have the external drive mounted and ready, then launch iTunes which will look for the .XML file in your boot drive >iTunes Folder, then when you click to play a song, instead of it finding it in your boot drive iTunes Folder, it's in your external drive iTunes Folder.

  • How to Sync Multiple email Account with iCloud

    I have many email account over a local internet service provider and different hosting companie.
    Is it possible to sync all my account over my MacBook, iMac, iPhone using icloud?
    How can I do this?
    Can you help?
    Thank you,
    BigBlaze

    According the this: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html, "After moving to iCloud, family member accounts are no longer linked to the master account."  You can share an iCloud calendar (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690), but I don't think you will be able to share iCloud contacts unless you are signed into the same iCloud account on both phones.

  • HT1727 Can I sync old iTunes account with a new iTunes account?

    I have a previous iTunes account with purchased music but the email address is no longer active.  Is it possible to move that music to my new iTunes account?

    No, you can't move content between accounts nor merge accounts - all content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it. You should be able to update the email address on the account (you can't use an address that is in use on another account), either via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • How do i sync Outlook for Mac contacts with apples address book ???

    How do I sync outlook for Mac 2011 contacts with Address book.  I updated the itunes or apple updates and it erased my contacts from the address book.  I did have is set up where the they automaticaly updated back and forth but now I can not find how to check this.  Bottom line I want my contacts back to address book. ??????? anyone.

    Outlook for Mac doesn't support contact (or calendar) syncing with iCloud because Microsoft  chose not to include the CardDAV (and CalDAV) protocals that are required (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  You'll have to use the OS X Address Book (Contacts) app to sync with iCloud.

  • Having trouble syncing my Blackberry 8900 with my Address Book on my Macbook

    My Mac has Desktop Manager for Mac.
    I synced my Blackberry and Mac.  Addresses in my Mac Address Book were duplicated.  I backed up my Blackberry Address book. I wiped my Mac Address Book clean (my iCloud address book was wiped clean as well) and did a two-way sync with my Blackberry hoping to transfer all my contacts onto my Mac.  The sync wiped my Blackberry clean, so I did a restore on my Blackberry with a back-up file, so all my contacts are back on my phone.  I want to import the contacts on my Blackberry to my Mac Address Book.  How do I do that?  

    You should be able to sync your device to your MAC with the DM, just be sure to temporarily disconnect from iCloud. What OS are you on?

  • How can I migrate my group lists with my address book?

    I have moved from Windows XP to Ubuntu (YEAH!). I was using TB in XP and I was able to successfully move my address book with all of my contacts' information by copying and pasting the abook.mab file. But I seem to have lost (or at least I am currently missing) the group lists that I had created using that address book. Where is that information stored and how do I transfer it to TB in Ubuntu? Is it as simple as copying another certain file or will I have to extract and then import some information from some file(s)? Those group lists were almost as important as the address book itself and I made the assumption (yes, I know!) that the group list info was integral to the address book itself. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

    No, I did not export and then import the address book. I just copied the .mab file. Is that what I have to do? Is there another file, or portion thereof, that I can just copy across? I have all those #appdata# files saved, but i do not have Windows running anymore. I have also now noticed that my "Collected Addresses" were not contained in the abook.mab file either. It would be good if I could recover them too.
    Thanks again for any help. Much appreciated!

  • How do I sync multiple icloud accounts with Outlook?

    My wife and I both have icloud accounts and we use icloud to sync our calendars.  I currently have icloud setup to sync with my Outlook, but I cannot find a way to sync my wifes icloud to my Outlook as well.  I am just wanting to sync the calendar items on both icloud accounts to Outlook.

    Icloud does not get installed.
    To sync contacts between iCloud and outlook requires iCloud control panel.

  • How can I sync my email account with "mail"? When I delete a message using "mail" it does not delete that message on "Safari" when I check on it. Can I change this?

    It is the same way on my iPod and iPhone so I just stopped checking my e-mails on them.

    Yes there is an option to Remove from server emails that are deleted and then emptied out of the trash folder. At least there are in most email programs so I would think Mac Mail offers this. But after you delete them and empty the trash in the mail program you have to again Check Your Email so that the server knows that email was deleted.
