Creating an additional email address

I already have an @me.com email address. I would like to create a new, additional one. How do I do this?

That's correct. Apple email is now specifically iCloud.com for any new addresses. You can a new alias to the account at iCloud.com. And you can only sign into iCoud accounts with the main apple id, not aliases. So for an apple id, you have 1 email account consisting of the main address and all of it's aliases.
I assumed you were talking about setting up apple email, but maybe I misunderstood and you want to set up the Yahoo accounts in the Mail application. If so, the same applies to any account with a main address and an alias to the account.
Since you said both of your accounts (SBC.global & yahoo.com) go to the same inbox account, I assume one of them is an alias, otherwise they would show as separate accounts under the inbox when expanded. Some providers allow you to create sub accounts as well as aliases to the main account. ATT/Yahoo does allow sub accounts. If yours does, you could create a sub-account instead of an alias to the main account. That would enable you to set them up as separate accounts completely. Even though they would appear in the same inbox (because apple mail only has 1 inbox allowed), they would be listed as separate accounts under the inbox.

    My daughter is 7 and I don't allow her to download anything on her iPod touch. I have to put in my password for anything to be downloaded. Recently when putting in my password, I am being ask to enter in an additional email address for verification purposes.  I need to know why this is.  I have 1 email address that I use and don't see a reason to create a additional email address.
    Can somebody tell me if this is normal?
    Thanks

  • I have an iCloud email address on my iMac. How can I create an icloud email address for my wife on the same computer?

    I have an iCloud email address on my iMac. How can I create an icloud email address for my wife on the same computer?

    If all you want is an additional email address you can create up to three 'email aliases'  - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account.
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
    More information on aliases here:

    If you want to keep her email separate from yours she will need to create a new Apple ID, and use it to create a new iCloud account either on a separate computer or on a separate User Account on your Mac.

  • Apple Mail sends out emails when turned on. Adress book creates groups of email addresses

    I have had this issue with my address book for a while in that it creates new entries with just an email address as the actual entry and then hundreds of other email addresses from address book as this entry's additional email addresses.
    At the same time I had an issue with Apple Mail that I thought was unrelated but now I am not that sure anymore. When I turn Apple Mail on, it sends out emails that look like an endless chain of responses (spam) to the same email that advertises  all kinds of stuff.
    When I first noticed the issue I turned Mail off (a year ago). After updating to Lion I tried to use mail again but had the same issue and have not been using it since. But I appear to still find new entries in my address book all the time.
    I ran some software (ClamX) but wasn't able to find any malware so far. I can't imagine someone hacking into my machine and doing all this my hand. For what?
    So I am wondering whether anyone has had similar symptoms on their Mac?

    Do you recognize the new entries in Address Book, or the contents of the messages?

  • I want to create more icloud email addresses.

    I want to create more icloud email addresses.

    You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.

  • Creating a new email address in GroupWise 7

    I have groupwise 7 and need to create a new email address. I have searched the on-line documentation and it says to use ConsoleOne. However, my GroupWise user interface does not the ConsoleOne. Can someone tell me how to get to ConsoleOne?

    * skhazra,
    I assume you are using Groupwise in a corporate environment, so best approach is to contact your company's Groupwise administrator.
    He can create additional addresses for you @yourcompany.com or he can tell you if it is possible to add an external mail address to your Groupwise client.

    My apple id is with gmail, I want to change it and create an @me email address. How can I do this?, My apple id is with gmail, I want to change it and create an @me email address. How can I do this?

    You can't merge accounts, if you start using the gmail account for iCloud by logging out of the me ID in system preferences and back in using the gmail ID, you'll need to copy all your data in calendars etc to the gmail account. you also won't be able to use the me address for mail unless you add the me account as a secondary account at system preferences > mail, contacts and calendars.

  • How do i create a new email address?

    how do i create a new email address in Mail?

    Have you already established a new email account with an email provider such as Apple, Yahoo, Google, etc.? From the email provider you will need to know the email address ([email protected]), and the password for the account. If this is a common used provider such as iCLoud, MS Exchange, Google, Yahoo, or AOL that is all you will need to know Mail will fill in the rest of the information automatically. For other accounts you will need to know the acount type (POP3 or IMAP), the URL for the POP or IMAP server, the security type for the server, the URL for the outgoing email server (SMTP) and the security type for it. Don't panic over all this, most email providers have instructions on their site for setting up Apple Mail -- you just have to find it.
    Once you have the information together, open Mail then on the menu bar at the top of the screen select Mail > Preferences > Accounts. Click on the plus sign at the bottom of the list of accounts and start by entering your new email address and password. Mail will then attempt to fill in the rest of the information it needs. If it is unable to do so, you will have to fill in the information yourself hopefully following the instructions provided by the email provider.

  • Why can't I add additional email addresses to my Apple ID?

    In my family we share the same Apple ID.
    However, we would like to be able to use iMessage and Facetime amongst the different units (iPhones/iPads), which requires me to have several email addresses registered under the Apple ID, as all units (ie. the iPads) do not have associated phone numbers.
    However, when I add them directly under Settings -> Facetime/iMessage -> Add Another Email it gives me an error (unspecified - it just says an error occured), when it tries to verify my email.
    I then figured that I needed to have all these different email addresses registered to my Apple ID we all are using. Hence I went to appleid.apple.com and signed in to manage my Apple ID. I tried adding additional email addresses under "Add Email Address". But when I push "Save Changes" after having added another email address nothing happens. It just sits there.
    I have tried several different browsers on different Macs and even on the iPad, but all with the same result.
    Can anybody help?

    Hey Thomas,
    I was able to get my MobileMe email address verified tonight...  I logged into the Manage Apple ID website with my MobileMe email address and it again said it's own email address wasn't Verified.  So I tried, for the **** of it, to add an additional Alternate Email Address and added the MobileMe email address for which I was logged in as.  It immediately took the email and marked it verified with the green check mark.  The only thing, my MobileMe.com email address shows up as the Primary and then again listed under the Alternates.  I tried deleting the one listed under the alternate but it doesn't go away.  I'm just trilled it's now verified and I can log in and use my MobileMe email address in the iMessage, FaceTime and Find My Friends services!
    I still cannot, however, delete my MobileMe email address that's still listed as an un-Verified alternate on my old iTunes Apple ID, but it's not affecting the fact that my MobileMe email address is NOW verified on my MobileMe Apple ID!
    So all is finally working now, after a week, and after being on Apple's Express Lane Chat and to the store's Genius Bar on Thursday 10/20 which were both a joke.

  • HT4479 I have an Apple ID that's not an email, and I have been told it needs to be an email address.  I change it to my email address and it says my email is already in use.   I only have one email address.  I don't want to create a second email address.

    I have an email account and they want me to use my (same) email account name as my Apple ID.  When I do it says my email is already in use.  Is Apply suggesting I need to create a second email address?

    Is the email address being used in the account of another Apple ID that you have?

    I'm not quite sure exactly to what you are referring...can you provide more complete details please? For example, are you not able to create a hosted (e.g., @carrier or @BB) email address? Or is it that you cannot add into the email configuration your existing (e.g., Yahoo, GMail, etc.) account?

  • Early iMac (not Lion eligible), does my mobile me email address cease to work after June, 2012?  Can one create an iCloud email address?

    Cannot update to Lion on this early intel iMac.  Now I find out I cannot move mail, contacts to iCloud.  My question is, will my mobile me email address continue to work after June, 2012?  Can one create an iCloud email address to use with iPhone and iPad?

    If you own a iOS5 idevice like a ipod touch you are eligible to use icloud. This will preserve your current Email and Adress Book data after MobileMe dies next year.
    Else you would need to purchase a Lion capable Mac or set up a Vista/Win7 PC with office2007/10  to use icloud.

    Are you logged into your iCloud with the AppleID you used to create the iCloud address?
    If so, check the Mail checkbox in iCloud System Preferences and then go to Mail and look at Accounts Preferences. Does the email account show up in the iCloud account?
