How to use @me as primary iTunes email?

When I try to change my Apple ID email address to my @me account, I get this error telling me how my @me is already associated with my Apple ID and I cannpt use that as my primary email address.  I am going to get rid of my @gmail email soon and use my @me email as my primary email address.  How can I change my account settings to use my @me and get rid of my @gmail.  Thank You for any answers!

The only thing I can think of, it's a bug in Apple's system.
The Apple ID still thinks it cannot allow your ID to be changed to a @me.com address becouse, before iCloud, those were always MobileMe addresses which already had an Apple ID associated to them.
Apparently, Apple hasn't yet updated there ID system to reflect the new iCloud reality.
Totally agree that Apple ID seems to think that a @me.com account is associated with MobileMe.
Until Apple "fix" it's systems, I'll continue with my old email address, and not use the iCloud email features.

  • How to use java mail to send email to hotmail box

    how to use java mail to send email to hotmail box??
    i can send emails to other box(my company's email account) but for hotmail, the program didnt print any err or exception the recepient cant receive the mail.
    thanks

    you ust to download activation.jar and mail.jar and add them to your build path.
    i have used the googlemail smtp server to send mail the code is following:
    public void SendMail()
    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("mail.smtp.user", username);
    props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
    props.put("mail.smtp.port", port);
    props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable","true");
    props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
    props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", port);
    try{
         Authenticator auth = new SMTPAuthenticator(username,password);
    Session session = Session.getInstance(props, auth);
    MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
    msg.setText(text);
    msg.setSubject(subject);
    msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(senderEmail));
    msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(receiver));
    Transport.send(msg);
    }catch(Exception ex) {
         System.out.println("Error Sending:");
    System.out.println(ex.getMessage().toString());
    and this the SMTPAuthenticator Class which you will need too.
    class SMTPAuthenticator extends javax.mail.Authenticator {
         private String fUser;
         private String fPassword;
         public SMTPAuthenticator(String user, String password) {
         fUser = user;
         fPassword = password;
         public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
         return new PasswordAuthentication(fUser, fPassword);
         }

    No, sorry but it isn't. The TC is designed for Time Machine. It has no way to back itself up, and TM cannot backup network drives. It is slow to respond to requests because the green drive has built in fast spin down and slow spin up. The TC has no media smarts.. it has no smarts at all actually. It is a dumb as a board hard disk in an almost equally dumb router.. you can think of it as dumb and dumber!!
    The how to do is discussed all over the place.. Apple have instructions on moving the itunes libary.. just look it up.

    That is near to the ideal setup.. a mini makes a great media computer.. and will support iTunes.. just plug in an external drive and then TM can back it up.

  • How can I change my iPad iTunes email address to match my mac pro iTunes email address.

    My iPad iTunes email address is different from my Mac pro iTunes email address.  Tried changing my iPad meal address to match my Mac pro and said I could not.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are using different Apple IDs for each device, this implies that you have different accounts on each. Unfortunately you cannot merge accounts or transfer content between them.
    If all you wish to do is to use the account that you use on your MacBook Pro for your iPad, then you need to delete or sign out of your iTunes & app stores App on your iPad and then login again with your other account details. Obviously you will then no longer be able to use the purchases you have made from the account you have logged out of.

  • How to use JavaMail to receive incomming email?

    Hello,
    I am a year 3 student and doing a final year project about web hosting.
    I want to know how to use JavaMail to receive and treat the incomming email. It means that the incoming email how to process and store the "message" in the recipient "folder" in the "store" class.
    If you have any optinions or examples or suggestion, please contact me.
    Thank you for your attention....

    First, it would be better to post questions about JavaMail in the JavaMail forum and not in the JSP forum.
    Second, the JavaMail download comes with a set of examples, including some that cover exactly what you ask.

  • How will i know if an itunes email gift card has been redeemed by the recepient? do i get a notification?

    I just want to check if the iTunes email gift card has been redeemed (without directly asking the recepient themselves). Is there a way to check that? Would I get an email notificaiton when the gift card is redeemed?

    You can't log into any site and see your account's balance. You can log into your account on your iPad via Settings > iTunes & App Store - on my iOS devices my balance shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to). You may not see anything if your account's balance is zero.
    Not sure what you mean by relationship iTunes has to products. You can buy music, films, TV shows, audiobooks via the iTunes app on your iPad, and apps via the App Store app - what you buy will be tied to your iTunes account.

  • TS1967 how to use push notification from itune

    hi i had update my iphone5 to new version ios and when some one will send me watsup msg or viber or instigram msg it not shown like the old version on screen and it shows me when i will go for watsup i need to connect my phone to itune and use the push notification _and am connecting my phone now to my laptop but i dont know how to do it

    Hi!
    I'm assuming you already know how to broadcast push notification and that your problem is just with pushing to a specific user. The push notification service in Azure Mobile Services will accept a channel Uri the question is: How do you get the channel Uri
    of the client you want to notify.
    You do that by storing the channel uri in your User entity. This way, when someone needs to notify a single user, the can query the user from the database (in your example, via the Email) and user the stored channel uri to notify that specific User.
    You can find out more about this technique
    here.
    Cheers,
    Sam.

  • How to use Yahoo Mail to send email using email links on webpages

    When I'm on a webpage that has a link to send an email, I cut and paste the the email address (which is the link) and paste it into my Yahoo Mail address bar. However, some webpages don't show the email address as a link. Instead, the link might be "write me" or "send mail", so I can't cut and paste an address.
    If I click on an email link, a window pops up that says "Welcome to Mail" and it states that the assistant will guide me through the steps to configure my email account. To get started, this assistant requires a password that I don't possess.
    So I'm stuck not being able to access an email application that I don't want to use in the first place.
    Is there a way to set up my computer so that I could click an email link on a webpage and have Yahoo Mail pop up?
    If not, is there at least a way to send an email using an email link that doesn't show the email address, without using (what I assume to be) the Apple mail Application? If it is necessary, how do I recover the password for the mail assistant? I'm not aware of ever having used or set up a password before.
    THANK YOU

    If you don't want Mail to open, don't click on the app.  If it's opening at login, right click its Dock icon>Option>de-select Open at Login.

  • How to use credit on my itunes account?

    I show $26.09 credit on my account but when I try to purchase, it never deducts from this amount, it wants me to use credit card of gift/itune card? How do I use this credit to purchase?

    Have you purchased anything?
    It is automatic.  You need do nothing.
    Itunes verifies your account using your credit card details.  That does not mean that it will charge it.
