Can't create a new alias

i currently have two alias in use and still have one available, but since long time ago, when i try to create an alias,   it always return with the error "this alias is not available".
im pretty sure im using correct formate because the one im creating is basically in the same format like the two i had.
also it's not possible that someone has taken the address already. because i've tried my name followed by my DOB, also even random letters....
does anyone know what can i do at this point?

Then hopefully at the end of June, we will be able to create those aliases.
[edit] After reading in another thread that someone was able to make a new alias, quite suddenly, I thought I would check, also... and three aliases now exist where before there were none...  two of them are old ones deleted from me.com long before the changeover, and one which I ought not to be able to have, since its the same as my current mac.com apple ID.  I don't mind, I wanted to get that at one stage but it refused to create it.
What I did prior to checking my account prefs was to delete a folder that had been created, called Aliases (no point having one, if you dont have any, eh) and then I checked my account prefs.  I don't know if theres a connection between the two, but perhaps those who are still struggling with the wait 7 days message when its been months, might look to see if they too have a useless "blank" listed under aliases, and delete that, as well as the Alias folder, if they have no other existing aliases.  If theres something called "blank" get rid of it anyway, it doesnt do anything.
Also... I cant delete any of the aliases that now exist there... oh well.

  • How can I create a new iCloud account for a familiy member having a new iDevice and reuse one of my aliases for it

    Hi there,
    I moved into iCloud from the very beginning and started with one iCloud account for me and my family, making use of email aliases for family members. Now the number of personal iDevices grows and I want to create a new and separate iCloud Account for my son. The pity is, that I reserved his full name already as alias address on my initial iCloud account. If I now delete this alias, can I create a new account with the former alias as new primary email address?
    Or is there at least any transfer procedure supported for aliases between different accounts?
    Thanks for your help, lauterbachj

    Couldn't agree more... the folks who are getting penalized for this are the early adopters of .Mac/iCloud dating from the days when the only way to implement a "family" account was to use aliases. Now all my kids' / my wife's name aliases sit in my account, unable to move. I guess the good news is that if I delete them nobody else will get them, but this seems a pretty poor consolation.
    Would it really be so difficult to implement a "move this alias to another iCloud account" option that requires the "sender" and "receiver" to exchange some sort of code to implement the transation in order to prevent fraud?

  • TS2756 How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

    I have an iPad2 and a new MacBook running Mountain Lion. Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my current Hotmail Id for my Apple Id for iTunes, iCloud.
    Note, I will use both Hotmail and iCloud eMail.

    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")

  • How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4?

    How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4? I followed the Garage Band process and ended up with the ring tone I want as a AAC audio file. It got stored in my iTunes a a song rather than a ring tone. How do I make it a ring tone vs. a song? I tried dragging it t the Ring Tone category at the bottom of the ITunes list, but it won't alloow me to move it?

    There's also an easy to use Applescript over at Doug's Applescripts for iTunes. It automates the whole thing. All you do is set the start and stop time on a file in iTuens and run the script. It will do everything else.

  • Admin Tool can not create any new database or model [nqserror 46131]

    Hi everyone!
    I can not create anything new in each layer on the admin tool. It marks unknown error.
    When I try to import metadata it send the message: [nqserror 46131] unresolved hostname, everything in online mode. I can modify everything offline, then replace the rpd and I can create reports in Answers. But I need to do all of these online mode.
    Everything else works well (Answers, Dashboards, Publisher). The server name is correctly put in the instanceconfig.xml.

  • Can I create a new itunes account and synch my iPod to it?

    I have an iTunes account, but have only bought music and apps on it for my son's iPod Touch.
    Now I have my own iPod Touch and we want to have separate accounts. I already synched my new iPod to my own account - the one where all his music is.
    What can I do at this point to let my son have his own account with all the music/apps he has purchased?
    Can I create a new account and synch my iPod to that? Can I change the email address on the first account to my son's email?

    Yes but you will need to authorize your computer for purchases on the old iTunes account.

  • I can't create any new reminders on my iPhone 5S with iOS 8.

    Hi.
    I have a 16 GB iPhone 5S with iOS 8.1.3. The problem I have is that I can't create any new reminders, at all. The problem started with my iPhone 4 (which I had before this phone), and I was using iOS 7 when the problem arose (but it didn't start immediately after I switched to iOS 7).
    One day when I had the iPhone 4, I noticed that all my reminders had disappeared, and that I couldn't create any mew ones because the New List + button is grayed out. I didn't try to fix it until I got my 5S. I got to the "Scheduled" list and was able to type in a reminder (I thought I was a genius). But then when the time I'd set for the reminder actually came around, nothing happened, and when I checked Reminders, the reminder I'd entered was gone.
    I tried using Siri to set a reminder but she said she couldn't.
    I've tried Googling it, but it just says to press the + button to make a new list, and then start typing.
    I recently got a MacBook Air which I synced up to my phone, and all my old reminders from my iPhone 4 are there, and I can create new reminders. Except they don't show up on my phone (which I think they're supposed to do, right?). They do show up on my computer, though.
    I've taken to emailing myself things I need to remember, which is fine, I guess, but sometimes they get buried in my inbox.
    Any help would be fantastic!
    Also, if you'd like me to clarify anything, I'm happy to do so because I don't know how much sense this makes.
    Thanks so much!

    I have exactly the same problem. I discovered it yesterday.
    I have a 16 GB iPhone 4 with iOS 7.1.2, just to note that we both are using different devices and different iOS versions. I will add here some screenshots of the problem.

  • I can not create a new user account on eprint

    i can not create a new user account on eprint. I have been trying for over an hour and it repeats telling me that my email addresses are not entered correctly, however they match. ? 

    I have tried to create an account via ePrintCenter and it seems that the published application has several flaws in interpreting the provided input.
    1) In the Filed for last Name I enter my last name, which consist of only Alph Characters. The form however thinks that there is some sort of special character and rejects my Input.
    2) E-Mail address. is not identical; OK, so I do a quick OCR on the E-Mail and guess what they are identical. Again the form Fails to recognize this.
    3) Enter a password (2 Fields) and a third is displayed which is marked as "*required" but is not labeled as to what the required info could possibly be. Or is it a 3 password confirmation box, who knows.
    All I know is that a simple registration is a major pain with this HP site.
    Any Help as to how to alleviate this would of course be greatly appreciated.

  • Can I create a new album in the photos then delete  the photo fro the camera roll and it still stay in the album if so I do I do this?

    Can I create a new album and moved the pictures out of the camera roll into it then delete the pictures from camera roll and they still be in the aalbum if so how do I do this?

    Hey Nyanza,
    Clean out your Camera Roll the same way you'd clean out your still camera: sync to your computer. iTunes will move the photos to iPhoto (Mac) and give you the option of deleting them from Camera Roll. Do so. You can sync them back on once they are organized in iPhoto. Do you really need 3000 images?
    If you are on a PC, it's a little more difficult as there is no photo app on the PC to make it easy. Save the pictures to My Pictures like you would your regular still camera. Organize into albums. Sync the albums back on via iTunes.

  • Can I create a new account and keep all of my purchases and downloads?

    Can I create a new account and keep all of my old content? Recently got divorced and share the itunes account with my ex. I want a new account but do not want to lose all of my old content. Is this possible?

    Kmiller, 
    Get a copy of the entire iTunes library and copy it to the computer that you will be using from now on.
    iTunes Plus songs will still be playable, as will any "normal" MP3s that were purchased from Amazon or ripped from CD. 
    Any "protected" content from the iTunes Store, such as movies, shows, or pre-2009 songs, will not be playable.  If you need to replace any such items with playable copies, a cost will be incurred.  Make sure to account for this in the property settlement.

  • How can I create a new Music Library?

    Had to buy new laptop which of course has Vista. The old unit was acting up(I think Windows XP was corrupt), so I saved my Library Files but it looks like the old machine only saved portions not the whole Library. I had approx. 13,000 tunes (35GB) in the LIbrary and all that was saved seems to be 319 tunes. I have all the music on an external HD and only the Library was on the laptop. My question is, how can I create a new Library from the external HD music? Is there a way or am I SOL? Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated.

    You need the entire libary on the external, not just media.

    Once you get a complete iTunes folder on the external drive, start iTunes with the option/alt key held down and select the iTunes Library.itl file on the external drive.  You will also need to do this with your main computer or the libraries will become unsynchronized.
    Alternatively you can make a separate library using the same media on the second computer. Start as you have been doing, let iTunes create a new, blank library file which will be on hte internal drive, set the media folder location in preferences to be the one on the external drive, then add the files to the new iTunes library. Unless you are a super-organized individual, or you don't care if your libraries do not have the same content, you are better off using a single library file that is on the external, not setting up separate library files.
