How to use iCloud email for registering at iTunes Store

This is my first discussion even I'm not a newbie
I'd like to use my iCloud email to register at iTunes store, but I always got a message "Use your @me account to sign in" (I guess like that the message). When I sign in with iCloud ID at AppStore, there's another message said "This account hasn't been used with iTunes yet"
Thanks

Are you trying to use @icloud.com to set up a new iTunes account? If so, I don't think that complete system has been rolled out yet. It will not likely be active until iOS 6 is made public. So as the system is telling you, you need to use @me.com for now.

HT1918 how to use debit card for purchase in itunes store?

i want to use debit card to purchase in itunes store and App store. How to change my account information using debit card?

Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

Using iCloud email for online accounts

We're changing our internet provider and I need to change all of the online accounts that use the old email address in the log in process. I've considered setting up an Outlook email address or a Yahoo or Gmail address so that future provider changes wouldn't require me to change the email log in for the dozens & dozens of online accounts but don't really want to use any of these providers. Can I use my icloud email address, which is already linked to my iPhone & my MacBook Pro accounts? Any reason why I shouldn't use the iCloud email address? I really don't like gmail & don't want a Microsoft account. And Yahoo seems to be hacked all the time. Thank you!

Unfortunately the free 5GB of storge is per account, not per device. However, iCloud will only back up your iOS devices, not your iMac. You may find that 5GB is sufficient if you are only backing up two iOS devices to the account. If not, you can always buy more.

How to use a visa gift card in itunes store

Can you use a visa gift card in the itunes store and if so how do you set it up?

You cannot.
Gift cards are country specific.
You cannot use the U.S itunes store from the U.K.
Send the card back to someone in the U.S who can use it.

I use icloud email but (2 email accounts univ and icloud) and i need to have all my outgoing emails come "from" my university account, not my icloud. So how do i do that, note checking the default box for sending new messages only applies to new messages

I am using icloud email but i also have a university account. All my email is fowarded to my icloud account and what i need to do is make sure all of my email that i ship is from my university account and not from my icloud account. I know there is a box that allows the default for all new emails to originate from one account but how do i make sure that all my replies to email (i.e. they have been fowarded from university account to icloud) now go from my university account. please help anyone.

Sorry for the delayed response, yes i want to use my university account when replying to all emails. Note i just discovered something, when i forward my university email to my icloud account and than responded from either my imac of my macbook air (i.e. in icloud) it automatically goes to my university account in the "from" space (good news!!!). That is just what i wanted, . While that is the good news, the bad news is that my iphone and ipad still treat this email as being from icloud even though it is forwarded (redirected) from my university account. That is when i respond to an email (or for that matter create a new email in my icloud account) it automatically lists the icloud account as the "from" account and i have to go in and manually modify it. So i am 50% there to solving my problem (i.e. actually did nothing the systems just worked well) but i still need to figure out a way to make this happen on my ipad and iphone. Any help or suggestions, note the default button in the iphone and ipad for email work differently than the default in the composition menu of the imac or macair.

IPad2 and a new MacBook running Lion, Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my Hotmail Id for my Apple Id and use it for iTunes, iCloud

I have an iPad2 and a new MacBook running Mountain Lion. Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my current Hotmail Id for my Apple Id for iTunes, iCloud.
Note, I will use both Hotmail and iCloud eMail.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

You cannot do that. The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address. The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well). You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

HT5622 I did not choose "use icloud" option for my initial setup. so, it is creating for not enough space in my ipad. How do I go back and set up icloud to store data?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you are planning on using iCloud to store files, forget about iCloud and use a cloud storage service like SkyDrive or Dropbox. iCloud is focused on information sync between the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac and PC instead of storing files like MobileMe. It's not worth using iCloud for this.
If you still want to set up iCloud, open Settings > iCloud, log in with your Apple ID and follow its steps

How to change icloud email? It wasn't me who made it. So every time I used my Apple ID is linked to that email?

Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change that address (short of creating an entirely new account).
However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

I used my husband's email for my apple ID. I just got him a new ipad but can't use the email to register. If I change my ID now, will that email be available for him on his ipad?

Hey LamFY,
Thanks for the question. The short answer is Yes. Once you change your Apple ID primary email address, the previous email address will be freed up for use with another account:

Be sure to follow all of the steps in this resource, most importantly the first step of signing out of all Apple features and services.

See the link below for how to sign up for and set up an iCloud account, including an @icloud.com email address:

You'll need to update your Mac OS to 10.7.5 or later.

HT4597 How much will iCloud email cost?

How much will iCloud email cost if all I use in my .mac email account and nothing else? My equipment doesn't support iCloud, and therefore email is all I'll be using.

iCloud is free and comes with up to 5 GB of storage in the free package, you can purchase more storage space if you want, however for Mail only I very much doubt you will need more than 5 GB.
