How can I set up imessage with a different email

I  needed to change my email and Apple ID. Now my daughter's imessaging won't work b/c it  it was associated with my old account. 

It sounds like you're trying to set your daughter her own account? Create one at https://appleid.apple.com/ and set it up on her iPad Mini. Now - if you want to transfer over the email address she was using on your account, to her new one, so her friends can still get in touch/don't need to learn a new email...
Disassociate the email from your old account...
Log into your old apple id https://appleid.apple.com/
Then, under alternate email addresses, remove the one she uses.
Associate with the new account...
Log in to her account https://appleid.apple.com/
Press +email address and enter it
After verifying it, go to the iMessage settings on the iPad (settings > iMessage)
Then, make sure you tick the new email address to receive messages, and ensure that 'start new conversations from' matches the new address.
All being well, your daughter shouldn't notice a difference. This also future proofs it, she won't be forever tied to your Apple ID when she leaves home etc...
However, now she's on a new account - you won't be able to share purchases - I don't know if you want to? If so.... you can setup Family Sharing! It's super easy and means you can access each others content. Enjoy!

  • How can I sign into iMessage with a different Apple ID?

    I setup iOS5 and got it running. I used all my existing AppleID info.
    Once it was running I decided to do some personal housekeeping and went to AppleID.Apple.com to clean up my various emails and to set my appleid to a email address that I actually am using.
    I made the change and I was able to update to the new main ID in facetime but I can't login to iMessage anymore. It just keeps asking for the password to my old AppleID and won't allow me to put in the new ID.
    How do I get iOS5 to forget the old iMessage ID?
    Any advice would be great!
    (I must add: This has been the MOST problematic update I've ever done with Apple - I had difficulties with my iPad2, iPhone 3Gs AND my AppleTV Gen2)

    Go to Settings>iCloud and change the email address.  You can change the password there, too.
    It took me some time to find it, too, but they seem to be two names for the same function.

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

    How can I set up iMessage to ensure the text messages people are sending me arrive both on my computer AND on my iPhone as well?

    Use the same ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on both devices and have people use that ID. Your iPhone number would be a good choice.

  • How can I set family sharing with my mom living in Europe?

    hi, i just bought new iphone for my mom who is living in Europe and I wanted to set family sharing with her to share pictures but I can't because I live in USA ... is there any way how to set it? Thanx

    Seeing how itunes store is not international, cause every locale has to comply with different set of laws - you probably can't use family sharing feature, but you can use photosharing.

  • How can I set body part with byte[]?

    Dear all,
    I stored image in database (BLOB TYPE).
    And I need to send it via e-mail, Can JavaMail set a body part with byte[] that I get it from my database?
    If it can be done, how to do that?

    ...I just wonder if the other receive your mail, they cannot know what the mail exactly for....
    you should-
    1. get the BLOB from database
    2. change it to a image file
    3. add the file as attachment of your mail with valid content type and Content-Transfer-Encoding

  • How can I set up imessage on iPhone to send messages from the name of number but not e-mail.

    I can set up iMessage on Macbook to send from the name of number, but can't do it on my iPhone after upgrading to 6.1

    If your iPhone and iPad are both running iOS 6, and your iPhone successfully registered it's phone number in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, all you should have to do on your iPad is go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and sign in with the same Apple ID you are using on your phone. 
    If it is, and it still isn't working, try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in.

  • How can I set up itunes with one ipod and two laptops?

    My boyfriend gave me an ipod a few months ago and he let me set up itunes on his laptop so everything is there. now that i have my own laptop i want everything thats on his laptop on mine. The itunes part i mean. but i don't know how can anyone help me?

    Do as this article says:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    That will make your iPod the syncing computer.
    You can only have one syncing computer/iTunes library for apps. and photos. You can however, manually sync music and vides from multiple computer/library if you sync manually. See that topic of:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad

  • When I email myself a picture from my iphone 4s, the email is sent from an email account that I don't have set up as the default account. How can I set it up so that the emails are coming from the default account selected in Mail?

    Under my mail tab, it shows that I have a specific email account set up as a default account. That is the account I would like for me emails to be sent from. But when I actually send out an email such as a picture, it is being sent from one of my different email accounts that is not set up as the default. How can I change this so that future messages will be sent from the default account? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!!

    All photo attachments received or sent with the iPhone's Mail app appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when viewed with the iPhone's Mail app which is the same with the Mail.app on a Mac. A photo attachment that appears inline or viewed in place does not mean the photo was not sent as a true attachment to the message. A photo attached to a message with the iPhone's Mail app is sent as a true attachment to the message. How an inline or viewed in place attachment appears on the recipient's end depends on the recipient's email client. If the recipient's email client does not support viewing an attached photo inline or viewed in place within the body of the message, the attached file must be manually selected and opened to viewed.
    I am getting the email with the Picture Inline ( not as attachment),The picture is shown distorted , no metter what i do and with what mail client i am using (Gmail\Hotmail\My Enterprise exchange mail), i still get the same behavior.
    With which email client?

  • How can i set a task/reminder from an email?

    Hi all, I have a 64gb iPad 2 running iOS 5.1 which work have supplied me with, I'm an apple n00b but am quite experienced with Windows. My mail is synchronised with the office server and I can access that on my Windows laptop or my iPad.
    When I receive a new email that I need to either reply to or perform an action in order for it to be considered complete (ie not just a FYI email that I can file away), I can set this email as a to-do task in Windows, set a coloured reminder to the email, flag the email with a reminder to pop onto my screen etc at a later date - ie loads of ways to highlight to me that this needs to be actually actioned but there doesn't seem to be any way of doing anything with the embedded email program other than mark it as unread.
    At the moment I'm resorting to creating a subfolder called "To do" and manually moving these emails there for the minute but setting a reminder or task, which I've had the ability to set on Windows Outlook since the 90's, seems impossible on the iPad. Other than this my only options seem to be marking the email as unread or going to the reminders app myself and type a 'manual' reminder referencing this email.
    Is there any way, or app, that I can either create a reminder/task straight to reminders from the email or, at the very least, do something to differentiate it from the rest of the emails in my inbox (even highlighting it in a colour would do)?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer,
    Matt

    This is an extremely vexing problem and I would like to know if anyone has a solution please.  Here is my situation:
    Using standalone (simply my home one not connected to network or exchange) Outlook 2007 (soon to upgrade to 2013) on PC - Windows 8.1.  Have an iPhone 6.  Want the closest possible functionality (particularly categories, reminders, etc.) on my iPhone for my standalone Outlook.  The only thing I have found close is DejaOffice and Companion Link (which work together).  I am seriously considering as appears a close mirror image for all things I do, but they don't have email.  So, can someone please give me either a) a better comprehensive application/solution; b) a separate 3rd party email app that will allow me to flag an email, on either computer or iPhone with perfect sync, as a reminder without having to create a separate task; or c) your best/closest solution set to be as seamlessly productive as possible using either native or 3rd party email app and your :"manual workaround."  Thanks.
