How to forward an imessage that only contains an email address

I can't forward an imessage that only contains an email address. When i push and hold the speech bubble it will only select the email address itself rather than the whole message.

You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser.  This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account. 
Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account.  If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account.  You can then turn on Mail to create the new account.  Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

  • Trying to set up a group email "RAM" that will contain multiple email addresses.  Receive error messages "check SMTP settings" or "Invalid email address" when I try to send a message to the group.

    I am trying to set up the group email "RAM" that will contain multiple email addresses.  I have inputted the name "RAM" as a corporation.  In the section labeled "Email" I have inputed multiple email addreses so that when I want to send an email to the group "RAM" I just have to input the name "RAM" in the section labeled "To" , input the Subject in the Subject box & the email will be sent to the multiple addresses, yet when I do I receive either one of two error messages being "Invalid Email Address" or "Check SMTP settings" each of which allows me the option of with cancelling the email or send it anyway.

    Bump. I'd like to know, too. I even have some synched Groups from my Apple Address Book I email to using Apple Mail on the Powerbook, but I can't see how to do a group mailing on the Touch either.
    In normal Mail, I just start typing the name of the group, and it autocompletes, I hit return, and it fills in all addresses in the Group.

  • How do i get imessage to go to an email address?

    How do I get an imessage to go to an email address on an iphone 4s?

    There are two things you can try:
    1. If you registered the 3GS under your support profile, you can login & remove the iPhone. This will stop your iMessage problem. Do so here: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
    2. If you didn't setup a support profile, you can "try" inserting the sim back into the 3GS & turning iMessage off there.

    Hi Aurion23,
    If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:

    Hey alexismoreno.boyce,
    Thanks for the question. Let’s try turning iMessage off, and then back on. This will force a reactivation of your phone number with the iMessage service. If your issue persists after the above step see the following resource for additional troubleshooting steps:

  • Is the imessage only reachable by email address in some coutries?

    I have an iphone 4 and I upgraded the ios to ios7.
    After that my imessge is onlyreachable only via my email address.
    Is there any solution for that?

    AnilB,
    Assigning a task to a user that is not in the directory will likely result in the BPM flow going into suspended state. To avoid this, assign the task to a pre-created group, you should not get an error even if the group is empty. You can then add and remove the users to that group to control access to the task.

  • IMessage no longer recognises my email address

    When iOS5 came out I successfully used iMessage on both the iPhone and the iPad. The same conversation appeared on both devices as expected. After about a week it stopped working on the iPad. Yesterday I turned off the settings and then tried to turn it back on but I am getting the message that the email address can't be verified. I press the button asking for a verification email to be sent but no such email is received, although i have today received an email at that address confirming an itunes purchase. Logged in to my one and only Apple account and there is the email address with a green tick and marked verified.
    Today I checked the settings on my iPhone and when I touched the email link it started attempting to verify and I got the same problem. I then added a new email to receive iMessages on the iPhone. After receiving an email with a link to verify I was able to add that as a replacement email address on the iPhone but the iPad won't verify that one either.
    Any suggestions for how to proceed? I would like to be able to iMessage on the iPad again

    Yes it is. I did have a lot of other tunes bought with my mobile me account that I paid the extra .29 or whatever to unlock them. When I try to play the AAC tunes purchased with the old account, the message says "This computer is not authoized.....you must authorize using the account xxxx.nyc.rr.com (which has been defunkt for years).  When I enter the password it says I already authorized 5 computers (still on the old account with computers I know longer have.
    yesterday, I de authorized all computers (3 of which are no longer with us though all used me.com) and started reauthorizing the 3 I presently own using my mobile me account.
    I can't deauthorize the computers with the xxx.nyc.rr.com account because I don't have them anymore.
    Is there a way I can merge all previous email addresses with my current me.com account? Then I could deauthorize and reauthorize my current computers.
    I had several macs with my old account and 3 currently with my me.com.
    Hope this is not to wordy... I'm trying to be thorough...I know, it's a bit confusing, at least to me.
    Thanks.

    I have original ipad and however I cant add my phone number to lmessage it will only take an email address . Is this correct ?

    I copied this from an Apple Support article.
    If your phone number is not listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you are using on your iPhone.
    On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
    If your phone number is still not listed, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and also in Settings > FaceTime.
    Now sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.
    This is the website for the support article.
