  • I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

    I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

    You cannot do that.  The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address.  The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well).  You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
    You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
    I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

  • I can't set up my email account on my ipod touch.  It keeps saying that I have to use a valid email address for this account

    I can't set up my email on my ipod touch.  It keeps saying I have to use a valid email address for this account.  Help!

    Hi Annie,
    Make sure when you are setting up your e-mail account that you enter in your entire e-mail address.  If you have a Yahoo (includes any e-mail account associated with Yahoo), G-mail, or Aol after entering in your password it should automatically set up.  Any other e-mail address you will have to manually set the account up.

  • When I flag an email with my gmail account using Apple's Mail App how do I flag and set a reminder that at a specific to follow

    When I flag an email with my gmail account using Apple's Mail App how do I flag and set a reminder that at a specific to time to follow up with that email ?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • Incorrect email address for my HP ePrint Center email account

    downloaded  HP ePrint for my blackberry and my email address for my HP ePrint Center email account is wrong, need to change

    Hi pjbodor1,
    I can definitely understand why that would be so frustrating.  It can be a bit confusing as to which email you need at different points.
    The email address you need to enter into the activation screen on the HP ePrint app, on any device (Android, Apple, Blackberry) is your personal email address.  You will receive an email from HP ePrint with the pin code  that you need to activate your app.  Please remember that each app needs to be activated individually, therefore if you have multiple devices with the HP ePrint app installed, you will need multiple pin codes.  The easiest way I found not to get them mixed up is to activate each device/app one at a time.  Once the app has been successfully activated on the device, delete the pin code email and move onto the next device. 
    For reference I have included 2 documents.  The first is getting started with HP ePrint mobile apps and the second one is dedicated to FAQ's for HP ePrint mobile apps.

    Of you're being phished. There are a lot of phishing scams going around right now with bad guys trying to get access to apple ID's.
    Anytime you want to verify the info, do not click on any links in the mail, but open up iTUnes on your computer and check things out that way.
    If you want to verify if anything is wrong http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/
    contact apple on your own and see what they say.

  • I just upgraded to iOS 8. In iCloud I'm being prompted to check my email to verify this account. The email address they have at the top of my phone is wrong. I have it typed correctly everywhere else. Now what do I do?

    I just upgraded to iOS 8. In iCloud I'm being prompted to check my email to verify this account. The email address they have at the top of my phone is wrong. I have it typed correctly everywhere else. Now what do I do?

    See if you can manage your Apple ID and change the primary email account to the correct address, as explained here: Change your Apple ID.  Then verify the address.

  • Can i use more than one email address for one account

    I created one user account. I would like to create and use three separate email address for this one account, which will all show under one profile. Is that possible, and if so, is it free to do so? Thank you.

    You can add more identities to a single profile.
    Go to Tools -> Account Settings -> <your account> and click the Manage Identities button on the bottom right. That's the place where you can add additional e-mail addresses for your account.

  • How do i delete an itunes account so I can use the email address for another account?

    Maybe he's referring to renaming another iTunes Store account after making the email address null and available to be used. Otherwise, I agree with you that it is pointless.

  • In Mail set preferences for which account used to send email

    When I click on a webpage link to send an email to somebody, Mail brings up a new email with that address on it -- but invariably it assigns it to an email address that I rarely use.  Same for forwarding incoming email.  I see no way to edit that From list to have a different account come first.  This does not happen when I click new message from the Mail program itself.  Is there a way to edit that list?

    By default, Mail will always sent new messages from the account that is currently "selected" (ie, you have selected one of that account's mailboxes).  However, you can easily change this in Mail's preferences.  Choose Mail -> Preferences, then select the Composing tab, then change the pop-up menu next to "Send new messages from" to the desired account.

  • How to set one default "reply-to" email address for multiple accounts

    I have an iPhone 3GS. I have my own domain name which I want to use as my primary "public" email address. It is forwarded from the hosting ISP to my ATT/Yahoo email address. I also have a Gmail account. I would like recipients to see that it comes from my domain ([email protected]), but since it is actually going through ATT/Yahoo, I can only see how to set the "From" field to either my ATT/Yahoo account or my Gmail account addresses. Is this even possible?
    Essentially, I don't directly access "[email protected]", but that's where I want it to appear to come from, regardless of where it actually originated.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    You get e-mails just fine, but do you have rights to log into the e-mail server at myfirstandlastname.com? If you can do that (check with your hosting ISP to find out if they will let you), then you can just set up the iPhone to use that e-mail server to send your mail. It's possible to set up an iPhone IMAP account to get mail from gmail, but use a separate non-gmail SMTP server to send outgoing mail, all within the same iPhone e-mail account.
    If you can get this working, then you won't need to mess with reply-to headers. Your e-mail will not only look like it got sent from myfirstandlastname.com -- it actually WILL be sent from there and all replies will automatically go there and then be forwarded as usual to your ATT/Yahoo address. No one will know that ATT/Yahoo is involved, and both your sent and received e-mail will show up in the same single e-mail account on the iPhone.
    I do this all the time with my e-mail. My account is really at gmail, but the e-mail address says it came from mycollege.edu. My old college offers me an alumni forwarding-for-life account. They only forward mail, though; they don't hold it. They do also run an SMTP server, though, and that's what I use to make my outgoing e-mail look as if it came from mycollege.edu.

  • Can't set up email manually for Suddenlink account on iPhone 3G

    I've been trying to set up my new iPhone 3G to access a Suddenlink
    email account with no luck. I keep getting a message that it can't
    find the server. It is an easy set up and shouldn't be that difficult.
    I set it up the same way I set up the email client on my computer
    for a POP account. Has anyone done this for a Suddenlink account?

    I finally got incoming AND outgoing email to work. To the instructions below from tylermacman
    you have to add TURN OFF PRIMARY OUTGOING SMTP SERVER AND TURN ON AT&T SMTP Server.
    SO- SETTINGS>Mail,Contacts>Acct>scroll down to SMTP click>Turn Off Primary>Scroll down to Other SMTP Servers AT&T>Click on AT&T>Turn On.
    I don't own an iPhone, so I had to borrow one from a co-worker. Please follow these steps:
    1. From your iPhone desktop, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    2. Select your Suddenlink email account and remove it by scrolling down and tapping the Delete Account button.
    3. Tap Add Account and select Other.
    4. Enter the appropriate answer for each box, as follows:
    Name - Your name
    Address - Your Suddenlink email address
    Password - Your Suddenlink Password
    Description - This is the nickname for the account (for example, Home)
    5. Tap Save to continue.
    6. On the next screen, tap POP.
    7. Scroll down to Incoming Mail Server and enter the following:
    Host name - pop.suddenlink.net
    User name - your Suddenlink email address
    Password - your Suddenlink Password (if not auto-entered)
    8. Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server and enter the following:
    Host name - smtp.suddenlink.net
    Username - your Suddenlink email address
    Password - your Suddenlink Password (if not auto-entered)
    9. Tap Save to continue.
    10. Tap Yes for Cannot connect using SSL.
    11. Tap OK to dismiss the POP account verification failed warning.
    12. Tap Save, then Save again to continue.
    13. Tap the account you just created.
    14. Scroll down and tap Advanced.
    15. Scroll down and tap Use SSL to turn it to the OFF position. Note that the Server Port field changes from 995 to 110. The authentication method should already be set to Password.
    16. Tap Home, then Mail, then Settings, then return to the iPhone's Home screen and you should be able to send and receive email on your iPhone using Suddenlink's POP/SMTP, Password-authenticated connection.
