Delete created then deleted icloud email folders from thunderbird emial program

I have different folders and subfolders in my iCloud email account over a long period of time. I can go into years of history of why but I don’t think that is neither important nor relevant. Suffice to say I installed my iCloud acct on thunderbird email and the folders and subfolders always automatically installed below main inbox. As I changed my folders and subfolders due to way too many and tried to reduce all these folders it worked fine in my apple iCloud emails accounts. In tbird, not so much. The folders I deleted after moving the emails that were there to different new folders tbird iCloud autoed the new folders and left the old that will not delete, change, move nor rename. I get the message that the folder is NONEXISTENT from tbird from iCloud each time I try. I just don’t seem to be able to find a solution to resolve this problem and maybe there is not one. If I have to delete the iCloud acct from tbird, so be it. I guess I can move any and all emails to some other non iCloud acct, delete iCloud, reinstall iCloud and hope all previous emails are not lost in the process. Also, one last question here I have always forgotten to ask. I often leave my iCloud email address when I enroll in something. Sometimes (maybe all the time) I get 2 copies of the email sent to the iCloud acct. is there a reason for double copies I do not know about?

    Your iCloud cannot access other accounts. You can set up the Mail app on your iPad to access other accounts just the same as on your Mac - the only issue might be with the ISP who provides your internet connection, as some services require you to be actually connected to them to send, and possibly even to receive though that would be more unusal.
    If any of your other accounts provide webmail you could use that.
    Otherwise you could set up forwarding on the other accounts so that messages are sent on to your iCloud account (I should set it to leave a copy on the original server) - however you cannot send using anything other than your iCloud email address as the 'From' address using iCloud outgoing server.
    As to existing messages, if the account is IMAP then the messages can be accessed from any device that signs into the account; if the account is POP then received messages live on your Mac. You can copy them up to iCloud in the Mail application on your Mac by creating a new folder or folders on iCloud and then dragging the messages to these folders - hold the option key down to retain the messages on your Mac and duplicate them to iCloud. Move messages, not folders, and don't try to move a huge amount at a time. Remember that they will take up space on your iCloud account.

  • IPad2 and a new MacBook running 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 Hotmail Id for my Apple Id and use it for iTunes, iCloud

    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")

  • HT204053 how do i change my icloud email address from the one i already have input?

    how do i change my icloud email address from the one i already have input?

    Hi sparkie,
    You cannot change your iCloud email address. It is an @me.com address, and is associated specifically with that iCloud account. If you want a different @me address assigned, you have to delete the current iCloud account and set up a new one.
    Here is a link with all the support information for iCloud:

    Hope this helps!

  • How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id?

    Hi there
    How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id? My original email address is associated with my previous employers.
    When I send email from my Macbook, it seems as if I still work there, which is a problem.
    I would like to use the email address that I created for my iPad.
    When I login with my appleid (for my macbook) I keep getting the old company one, not the new one.
    Is there any way of resolving this? I
    Thanks

    How i can receive icloud mail if my icloud email disabled from apple?
    please help
    thanks

    If Apple has disabled or deactivated your e-mail account, then you will not be able to use it. Did Apple tell you why it was disabled?
    If you don't know why Apple disabled it, you'll need to contact Apple Support to find out why.

  • HT5824 How to create a new icloud email account

    I need to create a new Icloud email account for may company. How can I do it?

    Does your company have a domain name and website?  If it does you should be able to create an email address using the domain name.  For instance, if you company's website is  ABC.com you can have multiple email addresses like "[email protected]".  Check with the hosting service that is hosting your business website.

  • My wife just purchased an iPhone. She has an Apple ID but it is linked to her gmail address. She wants to create her own iCloud email address but the setup tools don't let us do that.

    I have aniCloud account  apple id, linked to a MobileMe address (which I converted to an iCloud account)
    My wife just purchased an iPhone. She has her own Apple Id -- but it is linked to a gmail address.
    I wanted to create a new iCloud email address and account for her, but the Mail Setup won't let us use .icloud and keeps referring her back to log into the gmail server.
    How can we convert her gmail address to an icloud address if Mail Setup refuses to let her use icloud.com?
    One other issue: Her iTunes are linked to my account, and my wife would like her own separate account.

    Actually, I want her to have a separate iTunes account. Our marriage is fine, but our musical tastes are vastly different  That's another issue; right now want to focus on getting my wife in .icloud email address.

  • HT201342 I would like to transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to a different apple id.  Is this possible?

    How can I transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to another apple id?

    It isn't possible.  If you need to use a different iCloud account with a different ID as your primary iCloud account, you can still set up your other iCloud address as a secondary account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, signing in with your ID and turning Mail to on.  It will be fetch rather than push email, however, as push is only supported in the primary account.
