Gmail Alternate Email

Hello I set up my gmail account on Mac mail and entourage both... but there is one thing i cannot seem to do. In gmail, I have my other email addresses imported into alternate email addresses. I was wondering if there is any way to set that up in mail because i just use my gmail to send emails from my hotmail account.
Any help would be appreciated... thank you

Ah, sorry. I didn't notice that article was referring to the GMail app, not the native iOS Mail app. D'oh!
However, here is another article which tells you how to setup the iOS Mail app and have GMail aliases available to you:

That looks as though it should solve your issue.

  • Gmail alternate email address

    Hey,
    I have various (non-Gmail) email accounts setup in my Gmail account. One of these alternate accounts is actually the default Send As address in Gmail. When I send from Gmail web it correctly uses the specified default Send As address, and recipients see this address in the From field.
    However, using the built-in Mail app on the iPhone and the iPad it only sends from the actual Gmail account, not the one specified as the default Send As account.
    So I tried the actual Gmail app, and this doesn't seem to allow sending Videos as attachments (videos just don't appear as selectable items), and it doesn't appear as one of the Share options on the Share screen - only the built-in Mail app is listed.
    This seems a bit silly to me - a configured app (Gmail) isn't an option on the Share screen, but an unconfigured one (built-in Mail app) is.....?
    What is the best process to enable full Gmail sync (mail, contacts, calendar) and be able to send from the default send address?

  • Please help with setting up native mail app using Gmail with alternate email address

    I have an alternative email address setup such as [email protected] configured to use with my online Gmail account.  In the online account, I use the alternate email services smtp server so emails are sent correctly from that alias.
    Is there a way to setup the native mail app to use Gmail for mail, contacts, and calendar and use an alternate email address as the sender?  Right now I am syncing contacts and the calendar through the native mail app and using the Gmail mail app for my email.  It allows you to select from all of the emails setup on the Gmail account. 
    But for simplicity sake, I would like to consolidate to the native email app for all of my accounts - I also have an Exchange based work account.
    Thank you for the help.

  • I'm trying to recover my security questions, but my alternate email address on the link does not match the one I have put in my Apple ID, on the link it is has an old one that no longer exists. Has anyone else been through this or knows how to help m

    I've been trying to remember my security questions for ages, and I can't seem to remember them. On my Apple ID I have changed my alternate email address because the previous one was deleted, but when I go on the "Password and Security" page on my Apple ID and there is a link saying "Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to ************@*******.com" but it is giving me my old email that does not match my current one on my Apple ID and no longer exists. I have been trying for very long to recover my security questions' answers, but Apple is not coping with me.
    Has anyone been through this or knows how to help me?
    Thank you.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

    Note that the rescue email address is not on the "Name, ID and Email Address" page -- you need to click on "Password and Security" on the left side. Even after you do that, it may or may not be available. As noted in the following it is only available if you have 3 security questions and are not using 2-step verification: Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses

    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")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • Help!!! I think my email was hacked and now I can't get into it at all. All of the suggestions didn't help so far. I have double clicked, rebooted, and deleted the account. Is there a way that I can have a reset password to an alternate email?

    Help, my email was hacked, now I can't get in at all. Can I reset the password through an alternate email?

    You do realize that there are many, many email providers and without knowing which one you are talking about, there is no way to answer your question?
    Which then leads to this ..... Have you contacted your email provider about this? That's probably the best place to start. See what they recommend.

  • Hi there, I'm Medel and I'm currently on Saudi Arabia. I forgot my security questions' answers and need to reset it but I just added an alternate email a while ago. Can anyone help me how to reset it even if I don't have a recovery email registered?

    Can anyone help me how to reset my security questions on my apple account? I forgot the answers and need to reset it. Please Help...

    An alternate email is not used for resetting security questions, do you know if you have a rescue email address on your account ? If you do then follow steps 1 to 5 half-way down this page and you should get a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in Saudi Arabia to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699#S
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use
