Help! Using email .mac aliases with iPhone???

I hope I can explain this in simple terms. Does anyone know why or how to use a different alias under my .mac email account with iPhone? In other words, I use one of my alias email addresses as my primary, but in iPHone there isn't a place to designate which account I want mail sent from...so right now if comes from my main .mac account name.
Why didn't they think about this?

The iPhone does not support .mac aliases at this time.

Using .mac aliases with iPhone

I have an alias email that I use as my primary....how do I embrace this on the iphone? I can receive emails to this alias but my reply seems to be with my account email....any thoughts?

I spent about 20-25 minutes trying to find a definitive solution to this question at work this evening. Here's what I've come up with...
You can only configure the .Mac account email to work with your primary account for sending/receiving on the device. Which means that even though I can receive alias messages, I can only send from the primary account.
I dispatched an email to .Mac support and waiting to hear, perhaps they might know or have verified this to be true as well.

I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first. If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email then. Is there a way to fix this?

I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first. If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email from the phone screen. Is there a way to fix this so the phone doesn't have to be unlocked?

Apple, as I'm sure you know, now manage official phone 'unlocks' directly rather than the Newtork doing so.
When a GSM Network Provider buys a consignment of iPhone's they are locked to that carrier and may only be officially unlocked if said carrier requests it. If so, it is Apple who do this, via iTunes.
I am therefore inclined to think that part of the any generic iTunes syncing process involves the transmission of key hardware data, including IMEI, to Apple whenever the handset is synced.
If this is the case and, as each iTunes account is linked to a credit card, were Apple to maintain a database of genuinely stolen phones (ones reported to Police) they could advise said Police force when a stolen phone stuck its metaphorical head over the parapets once again? They would be able to identify the name & address of the new user.
I have spoken to the Police here in Ireland today and they regularly engage with Apple on such matters.
This may not be tracking as we know it Jim, (not using GSM Triangulation or GPS) but it's arguably even more targetted and leaves an indelible fingerprint of guilt on the thief.
The laws here are simple in this regard, if you are in possession of stolen property, knowlingly or otherwise, you forfeit the goods once the Police show up. Whether you get prosecuted depends on whether you stole the goods or were duped into purchasing them.

Hi sausage,
Unless you can find out the Apple ID and password of the previous owner, there is nothing you can do to remove the previous user's information. Return it for a refund.

Emailed photos taken with iPhone not being recieved.
Photos I have taken with the iPhone and then emailed are never received. I have sent them to two different yahoo accounts and neither account received the photos... I sent both using EDGE and WIFI... Same trouble with both...
Any idea why this feature is not working ?
Thanks,
-Frank

Now it's magicly working.... maybe....
I did as you asked and sent myself emails from my iphone and nothing was received.... tried sending to my yahoo account and my work account... did this 3 or 4 times and nothing was received and nothing was shown as being sent... even though I caould hear the "sent" sound each time....
I then tried sending to my personal and my work accounts and also added one of those to the "CC" line... so that email had 2 email address in the "To:" line and 1 eamil address in the "cc:" line... That one worked just fine !!! got it twice in my personal account and once in my work account.
I then tried emailing the same photo that I had tried before and it too worked correctly...
The only itmes that have shown up in my sent box are the last tow... the email with multipul addresses and the photo that I sent right after...
So... it appears to be owrking at the moment...
Thanks for your help... I'm not sure why it's working now.. but at least it is...
Thanks for you help,

Using the mac mini with a dial up internet connection

How do I go about using my mac mini with a dial up internet connection? I am soon to be moving to a rural area and dial up will be my only internet option. Please be very specific in your answer as I am not a very tech savvy fellow. Thank you for your help.

The last time I needed to use dial up I used this amazing device from actiontec:

Very hard to find one now, but it has the advantage that it connects to the ethernet ports of up to two computers, rather than using a less reliable usb connection.

I have a newer MacBook Pro with an AMD processor. It is my understanding that Parallels can only be used on Mac's with Intel Processors. Is that true and if so does anyone have recommendations about how to have a windows side to my Mac

Then it either is a pirate clone or you are misinformed.
Apple Computer has never used AMD processors in its products.
However, the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is a Radeon unit, which is an AMD subsidiary. Parallels, VMWare, VirtualBox will all work fine with the Intel Core i7 or i5 CPU that powers the Mac, and use the AMD Radeon GPU that drives the displays.

Can't sync email sub-folders with iPhone 4 using iOS 5?

I can sync most everything from my laptop using Outlook except the subfolders in my email. It will sync email but I have a number of sub-folders to organize my email that will not sync with iPhone. Any ideas?

So far this seems to have fixed it. For some reason when upgrading to iOS5 it has changed some settings in mail. Now if you send any .mac or .me emails using apple.com no problem. But other services such as optonline.net for example things changed. By checking the smtp settings, there should be a couple, this seemed to fix it, however once I did that all the email in the folder disappeared and said it could not download email without a password, yes the password now disappeared. I put it back in and so far it works sending and receiving on the ipad 2. I am going to try on the ipad1 and iphone 4...............

Why can't I email videos taken with iphone 4 from my mac

Why can't I email videos taken with my iphone 4 from my Mac? It says the video is to big or long but the particular one I am trying to send is only 1 min 16 sec long. I don't remember having this problem with my 3gs. I am trying to email them with my yahoo act, and I see this very same question was asked July of 2010, but their are no replies. It may be a very simple fix, but I can't seem to figure it out. Surly, I don't have to reduce my videos to 30 sec or less to get them to send. Can anyone please help a gal out?

I wan to get my audio book from itunes using my mac onto my iPhone

I want to get an audiobook on my iTunes using my macpro onto my iPhone. I have doen this o my PC but having difficulty on my mac. I ended up doing it om my PC but I want to use my new MAC PRO??
HELP...I drag the book to my phone and I see a green plus sign but nothing happens??
Thanks
Nancy

Hi netter143!
If I understand correctly, it sounds like you are trying to manually sync your audiobook from your Mac Pro to your iPhone. You can sync the items from your iTunes to your iPhone in multiple ways, and we have an article that can outline the instructions on how to accomplish this right here:
iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1296
Specifically, if you want to continue manually managing the media on your iPhone, you will want to reference this section:
Syncing manually
If you prefer not to automatically sync music content to your device, you can set up manual syncing. If you want to manually manage your content with more than one computer and your device, see this article.
Connect your device to your computer and open iTunes.
Select your device in the Devices section on the left side of the iTunes window.
In the main iTunes browser window, select the Summary.
Select the option to "Manually manage music and videos" or "Manually manage music." This will deselect the automatic sync settings for the Music, Movies, and TV Shows tabs.
Click Apply.
To manually add music, audiobooks, movies, podcasts, or TV shows, choose one of these categories under Library on the top-left of the iTunes window.
Select and drag items you want (to choose multiple items, Command-click items using a Mac or Control-click items using Windows), then drag them onto your device icon under Devices.
To add a playlist, select it from the left side of the iTunes window and drag it onto your device in the same way.
When you are ready to disconnect your device, you may do so without ejecting it. An iOS device doesn't need to be ejected before disconnecting it.
If you are still having trouble with the audiobooks after attempting this, there may be some information concerning your issue in this article:
Some songs in iTunes won't copy to iPod

Can you really use EverWet waterproofing spray with iPhone & laptops?

Does anyone know if you can safely use the new "EverWet" spray to waterproof an iPhone, laptop, etc.? (http://www.neverwet.com/)
Demo videos show an iPhone treated w/ this spray, fully functional while submerged in water—but how is this possible, without destroying the ports, and/or overheating the device? See one demo here: http://bit.ly/15eBufn
EverWet is now sold in Home Depots as of 2012 - but considering the incredible application possibilities, I'm curious why I haven't heard more about it—and how it wuold be possible to use w/ a laptop, without destroying the ports / functionality.
Can anyone help with this?

its NOT possible, Im familiar with that nanotechnology hydrophobic spray,..its good for boots, gloves, and exterior coatings on NON electronic devices. There is nothing on earth that is going to protect your AIR computer from water, especially submerged, (except maybe a giant industrial ziplock as used by the Army to protect electronics in the field)
if such spray made it to the micro resistors etc etc in the logic board and bridged an electrical gap even with the machine OFF (much less on), it would fry your computer.
MACS already have non porous metal casings, and NOTHING on earth is going to protect a LOT of water seeping thru the keyboard slots onto the motherboard,....NOTHING.
Dont even think of using that stuff on your iphone or laptop

Outlook 2011 for Mac Syncing with iPhone 5

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE:
Macbook Pro running OS X (10.8.2) - Mountain Lion
iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.1
Outlook for Mac 2011 (14.2.4)
I am coming from a PC that ran the most current Outlook and iTunes. Before I switched to my Macbook Pro I was able to input calendar items into Outlook on the PC and then plug my iPhone 5 into the PC and everything would sync accordingly. Ever since I switched over to Mac my Outlook calendar items will not sync.
THIS IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO:
Sync my Outlook calendar and contacts between my iPhone 5 & my Macbook Pro. It sounds simple but after reading almost every post possible I have come to a conclusion that I might have to switch back to my PC for such a simple problem.
Can anyone with this same problem help me with success?
If not is there anyone that can suggest any other way that I can have everything synced up? I have tried icloud but I don't want everything in the cloud.
Thank you in advanced.
Ryan
