How do I set up iMessage account

How do I check my iMessage account setup?

HI,
Any Apple ID.
Open Messages on the Mac and Add the Apple ID to the iMessages Set up.
Add the Same ID to any iOS device in Setting > Messages.
If one of these is a Phone you will then get Pop ups on the other devices saying that the iPhone is using the iPhone Number AND the Apple ID  (Accept the Pop ups to use this info on the other devices including the Mac Version).
The Mac version can also join the AIM service the Jabber network and the Yahoo Service, depending on the Screen names and Other IDs you have.

    If you also want seperate Contacts and some other things:
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:

    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • After downloading Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta to my desktop I restarted the computer, but I do not receive any prompts to create an account with a Secret Password. How do I set up the account if the prompt never show up?

    Several months ago I installed the Firefox Home app on my iPhone to sync the bookmarks that I had on my Windows XP home computer. It has worked just fine until a few days ago. Just recently I was notified that the app would no longer work because of changes that have been made. I have tried to follow the instructions that were emailed to me regarding how to setup the new Firefox Sync add-on, but I am having a problem. After downloading Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta to my desktop and restarting my computer, I do not receive any prompts to create an account with a password and a secret phrase, as the instructions specify. How do I set up the account if the prompt never shows up?

    Click on the Firefox button then select Options to open the Options dialog. Now go to the Sync panel for the option to setup a new account.

  • How do I set up an account to receive email from my SMTP relay Server. Have I made a SMTP Server config error?

    Hi,
    How do I set up an account to receive email from my SMTP Relay Server?
    I've setup the SMTP feature and set my Server to use anonymous authentication.
    Things appear to look ok.
    But I can't connect make a test connection to it when I am trying to add an email account in Outlook.
    I could be doing something wrong here.
    This is my process.
    1. I have setup my SMTP Server.
    2. Created a user account in AD and given it an email address.
    3. Opened Outlook and tried to manually add a POP3 account by specifying the incoming and outgoing Server details.
    But when I go to test the connection on the email setup it keeps failing.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    HI Ralph,
    I'm having a hard time finding solution for iMessage.
    I can't send to one specific contact - we both use 4s iOS 6.1.3 and so is he.
    We cant send to each other. We tried to on/off sign in And sign out Apple ID on both phone and still doesn't work
    We even reset and erase content on his iPhone.
    We use different Apple ID.
    Looking forward to your reply, thanks in advance!
    I have added some punctuation and spread out the text to see if I have understood what you were saying.
    The Original Post  was about iMessages from the Mac Messages app.
    Now we are talking about  two people with  an iPhone each.
    You seem to be centered on something being amiss with his set up as you have Reset and Erased his iPhone  (no info on any restore from any backup).
    Can he/could he contact with anyone else before you reset his iPhone ?
    Can he contact anyone else now ?
    If this person cannot contacts anyone from his iPhone it would seem he has not set up the iPhone correctly.
    This may be a simple thing such as not having a Data Contract and therefore having Data Off and not be connected to a Wifi Network either.
    It may be more involved such as there being an issue with his Apple ID.
    If he removes the Apple ID  can he Send from the iPhone Number ?

  • How do I set a new account as default in safari when I send emails from a web page

    how do I set a new account as default in safari when I send emails from a web page
    thanks in advance

    In the Composing pane of Mail's preferences window, look for the pop-up menu labeled "Send new messages from." Select the desired account there.
    Note, though, that this won't change the behavior when replying to a message... in that case, the reply will be sent from the account that received the message, unless you specify differently at that time.

    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 do I set up email accounts to send emails while travelling overseas using various wifi locations?

    How do I set up email accounts to send and receive
    emails while travelling overseas using various wifi locations?

    Many ISP provided email accounts limit connections to their outgoing SMTP email servers to only connections coming from their own network. So, if you try to send email when not connected to their network (i.e. when not at home), the connection will be rejected.
    If you are using an ISP provided email address, in these circumstances, you'll need to ask your ISP if they provide an "authenticated SMTP connection" so that you can send email via their SMTP server when not actually accessing the internet via their network. You'll need to enter your email account username and password in the Outgoing SMTP server settings and possible configure SSL or outgoing port numbers. Your ISP will be able to advise on this though, as the exact setting vary between ISPs.
    By far the best solution though, is to use an email account that is not tied to any particular ISP, such as a GMail account, as these can be used from anywhere, on any network and provide authenticated SMTP as standard.
