How do i reset password for icloud email account which is not the same as my apple id password? I cannot see this anywhere in the online support pages.

How do I reset an icloud email password on my iphone? It is not my apple id password. I cannot see anything in the online support at Apple.

Go to http://appleid.apple.com to manage your iCloud ID and check to see if your @me.com address is associated with your ID.  If it isn't you'll have to contact iCloud support to see if it is still active, and if so, how to associate it with your account.

    how do i reset my additional iCloud email password which i forgot because of your new PW requirements

    The password for your iCloud email is the same as the password where you sing into System Preferences>iCloud or http://icloud.com - can you sign in in the latter? If so and your email doesn't work you should sign out in System Preferences>iCloud and sign back in again, and check Mail and any other data tyupes you want to sync. You data will disappear from your Mac when you do this but re-appear when you sign back in again.
    If you can't sign in at http://icloud.com you should go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Reset password' - sign in with your iCloud login and follow the instructions.

  • How do I set up an iCloud email account?

  • HT201413 How can I reset my security question's.  These are not the one's that I have chosen.

    Help me change the security questions.  The one's that they have ask me or not the one's that I have chosen.  I have called about this before and still NO HELP.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    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 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and all of a sudden they wont open and an error message comes up saying they were improperly downloaded or came in an email attach which is not the case

    I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and I have used them several times and all of a sudden they wont open.  I received an error message saying they are improperly downloaded or came as an email attachement which is not the case.  Please advise

    They seem to be word files - they will open if I choose "open with" microsoft word, but if I double click they don't open they are appearing as PDF on my screen.  I even opened one and then tried to "save as" making sure I chose .doc and they still appear as PDF
    I just created a new document response.doc in word and when I saved to my desktop it appears as a PDF file and I absolutely did not create a PDF or save as PDF it was a simple word
    doc.
    The message says "Adobe reader could not open response.doc because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example attached in an email and not properly decoded)
    The reader version is I believe the most current, I always update when prompted.  OS is Windows 8

  • How do i obtain a new iCloud email account

    My father set up a new ipad mini for my mother without setting up an icloud email account.  How do I go back to reset and obtain an icloud and apple Id?
    My father set the ipad up with a gmail account and forgot the password so everything is messed up help.

    Well the Mac is way too old, but rhis situation may not be as bad as it appears. Take a look at these kb articles.
    1. Did they enter an email address to use for an Apple ID? If they didn't, then they can create one where I stated in the other post - Settings>iTunes and App Store. They can create the ID in there.
    If they want to use a credit card with their Apple ID. See this.
    iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes - Support
    if they don't want to use a credit card, then they can create the ID this way.

    2. This might help with the iCloud account. It is really quite simple.

  • HT204053 I setup an apple id using my gmail email address from my iphone and then I decided to change my email to icloud.  So I setup an icloud email account. Now I want to change my apple id to my icloud email account, but it wont let me.  How can I merg

    I just got an iphone recently and I started my apple id using my gmail email address. I decided to change email from gmail to icloud so I setup an icloud email account and now I have two apple id accounts.  All my primary information is in the gmail apple id account and i just want to merge the two together.  I've tried changing the apple id on the main account to the icloud email, but it says it already exists.  How can I merge these two accounts without deleting one or the other?
    Thanks
    pallhues

    You can't merge iCloud accounts.
    You could move all your calendars contacts etc over from the account you don't want to the one you do, it's not simple but about all I can suggest.

  • How do I get an additional iCloud email account?

    I've had a @me.com email account for years. But I need another email account for my business and I want it to be an @icloud.com account. Can this be done?

    You can create up to three aliases - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main address.
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
    (You may find that you can't create an alias just at the moment while they are rolling out the @icloud.com addresses to all accounts).
    Or you could create a new iCloud account - you will need to create a new Apple ID using a different email address from the on you used to create your present one. You can sign into System Preferences>Mail, contacts and Calendars with this and run it in addition to the existing one.

  • HT4864 How do I set up my iCloud email account to also receive my outlook or gmail email?

    How do I setup my iCloud email account to also receive email going to my window pc outlook email account and also my gmail account?
    Thanks,

    You can't do that within your iCloud Mail settings, you'd need to forward the mail from the individual 3rd party accounts.

  • Email Push for an email account that is not mobile me

    Hi There; I have an iphone 3GS where I use 4 different email accounts and calendars. I use 2 mobileme accounts, I use a gmail account and I use a private server account. I used to have a Blackberry Bold and never had any problem. Everythong works fine except for the private server account. Sometimes I get the email in my iPhone even a day later, sometimes I don't get them. But I always get them in my iMac. Can somebody guide me in how to fix that issue or if there's any push email software that really work for the iPhone...I'm getting emails way tooo late compare to the mobile me ones. By the way, I have it set the same way I have set in my computers, POP. Please help, I really don't want to go back to Blackberry, I like my iPhone sooo much!

    Different from the Blackberry's email application, the iPhone's Mail application communicates direct with the incoming mail server for an email account - no different when accessing an email account with an email client on your computer.
    RIM provides a dedicated email delivery service for the Blackberry which provides Push access regardless the account type.
    With the iPhone's Mail application, the email account provider/email account must support Push access. The following email accounts support Push access for received messages.
    MobileMe.
    A Yahoo account created with the Yahoo account preset, which creates the account as an IMAP account with Push access for received messages.
    An Exchange account accessed via ActiveSync with the Exchange server for the account.
    A POP account does not support Push access when accessed with an email client that communicates direct with the incoming mail server such as with an email client on your computer or with the iPhone's Mail application. The only reason Push access is available with a POP account with the Blackberry's email application is due to RIM's dedicated email delivery service for the Blackberry.
    Although it is possible to access a POP account with more than one email client, a POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client only. Do you leave the email client used on your computer for accessing the POP account launched and running actively checking the incoming mail serve for new messages while your iPhone is doing the same? If so, this is likely the cause of the problem. Different from an IMAP account, only one email client at a time can access the incoming mail server for a POP account. If two email clients are actively running checking the incoming mail server for new messages and downloading new messages received at the server with a POP account, the 2nd email client will be temporarily locked out by the incoming mail server for the account when another email client is doing the same.

  • Printer MP480 - How do we reset printer for jammed paper when it is NOT jammed?

    My printer is stuck on clear jammed paper message.  But there is no jammed paper.  How do I reset printer so I can proceed to print?

    Hi arlington34,
    Since you have already verified that there are no paper jams in the printer, with a flashlight or other bright light, please check the paper feed area of the printer and verify that there are no other obstructions in the printer that may be causing the error. Once this has been done, please look inside of the printer where the inks are located and ensure that there are no obstructions in there that may be causing the print head not to move freely. Next, please remove and reseat all of the ink cartridges in the printer. Once all of these steps have been performed, if you still experience the same error, we can perform a roller cleaning on the printer to see if this will resolve the issue. To do this, please follow the steps located at the link below:
    Performing a Roller Cleaning
    If you still experience the same issue after performing at least three roller cleanings, the printer will require servicing.  Please call or email us at one of the methods on the Contact Us page to obtain your servicing options.

  • How do you set up a Yahoo eMail account with all of the folders on an iPad 1st generation?

    I setup my account using the Mail settings.  I can retrieve my eMail, but I don't have any of the folders that I have on Yahoo.  Also, when I delete an eMail it does not delete on the server (they reappear when I check mail again).
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Correct.
    Since email account mailboxes and messages are not included with the iPhone's backup, restoring an iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed will result in any user created mailboxes and the messages being lost in the process. Just as messages in a POP account's Sent mailbox are lost when restoring an iPhone with iTunes.
    No such concern with server stored mailboxes with an Exchange or IMAP account.
    A POP account is from the early dark ages of email account access with an email client on a computer when the overwhelming majority had access to a single computer only - before there were laptops and long before there were smart phones.

  • How to void Unused Checks in a Check Lot which is not the next free check?

    Hi Guys,
    Our Accounts Payable Supervisor received a new Check Lot from the Bank. He did not get some of the checks in the lot, as they got damaged by the manufacturer.
    Actually I can create 3 different Check Lots by avoiding the damaged checks. But, Accounts Payable Supervisor wants a single cheque lot and voiding those destroyed is the preferred option for him, so we have an audit trail.
    By using FCH3 I can only void used check(s) or the next available unused check(s) but not the check(s) some where in between the range.
    Please tell m how I go about it...
    Thank You...

    Nadini,
    As you said, I can split Check Lot by avoiding the damaged checks.
    But our Accounts Payable Supervisor don't want me to split the Cheque Lot.
    He wants a single cheque lot and void some of the unused checks(which were already destroyed).
    He is preferring this option because of Audit Trail.
    But by using transaction code FCH3, I can only void the next available unused check but not the unused checks some where in the check lot.
    So please tell me how to void cheques (not the next available cheque, but the cheques somewhere in the cheque lot) and splitting cheque lot is not the option for us.
    Thank You,
    Nag

  • HT201320 How do I set up my iCloud email account on an OLD iPhone w/ OS4.X?

    Hey everyone,
    My iPhone 4S got stolen, and I don't qualify for an upgrade for one more month.  So I've reverted to my old 3G iPhone.  The rep at ATT told me NOT to upgrade the OS - that it would make this thing run slower than molasses.  SO, I've only synced the super important stuff and am operating under OS 4.2.1.  However, when I go in the Mail section to set up my ME account and calendar, the only option is MobileMe.  I gave MobileME my iCloud credentials, and all it does is allow me to turn in Find My Phone.  It does not add my mail, contacts or calendar.  Does anyone know how to do so?

    You could go to icloud.com on your computer, then download your iCloud calendar as an .ics file as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4910 (under Calendar...icloud.com Calendar), then import this to a supported program on your computer such as Outlook or Mac iCal (if you have one) and sync it to your phone using iTunes; or if you don't have a supported program, import it to an external service such as Google Calendar (see http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/30834/add-an-ical-or-.ics-calendar-to-google-cale ndar/) and sync it to your phone using a gmail exchange account (as explained here: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740).
