Can I choose a different iCloud email address

Not from within iCloud. The iCloud email service uses iCloud email addresses.
You can setup any email address on your devices separately to iCloud though.

Can I use a different email address for the forums than my Apple ID?

Hi,
I generally use a particular email address for all my computer/IT forum questions. This email address is different than my Apple ID email address.
Can I change my forum email address (doesn't look that way) without changing my Apple ID address?
Thanks,
Scott

Fair warning... years ago I went with my work email address as my Apple ID. Now, with the advent of iCloud and all the other 'services' attached to your Apple ID, I find that half the time I cannot log into any one particular service. Apple's servers and ID system is getting way too messy. Keep it as simple as you can. If you add a different email address you are pretty much guaranteed that things will get more complicated.
These days, to log into these forums I actually have to log into Apple Store first. The discussion log in page will not allow me to log in any longer.
Keep it simple!

Can i have 2 different email accounts on the same apple id?

I have an iPad and an iPad mini. They're both registered with my apple id, although my son uses the mini. He wants an email address and I've set one up for him. I have my email on my ipad. But the mini asks me to verify my email address as the contact address for my apple id - does that mean I can't have 2 different emails addresses?

You can have any number of devices on one Apple ID.
Secondly, each device can be set up with a range of different email addresses.
All that is required is that your Apple ID has to be verified (proven) with one email address - that means that Apple will contact you, send you receipts etc. using that email address.
I have several email addresses and have them set up differently on different apple devices so you will absolutely be able to do what you want.
One tip though - when you set up an email address, it would be worth going to whichever ISP (service provider) you are using for that email address and doing a search on the web of whatever,to find out what the best portable apple device settings would be - sometimes special settings are needed.

I've can't sync my ipad and Imac because I've registered different email addresses with each. What should I do?

Hi,
I've recently bought an Ipad2 and wanted to use Pages on it - which I bought when I got my Imac a year before. However, because I've registered different email addresses with each device, I can't get these devices to recognise that I own them both. What should I do?
Thanks,
Chris

I highly recommend having a single account. Choose one or the other and make all future purchases on that. With one account you can share apps between a certain number of devices, but with separate accounts you have to buy multiple copies of what you want.
Also, Pages for the computer and Pages for iOS are different programs.

How can I send email using two different email address that both link back to my one exchange account on my Ipad mini

How can I send email using two different email address that both link back to my one exchange account on my Ipad mini?
On my PC I simply have a master return email address and use a POP for the secondary address. Both are through the one exchange account without a problem. I need to be able to do the same on my Ipad.

Ah, I should have made that clear. My domain didn't come from google. It was purchased at and is hosted at dreamhost, but I haven't used their email servers in years - I just route everything through gmail. I actually have a bunch of domains (with websites).
Gmail has an option that lets someone with custom domains send (and receive) email through gmail using the custom domain once Google confirms proper ownership of the domain (to prevent spammers and such). Gmail has a setting for "send email as" which allows gmail to be sent using a custom domain as the sender. I'm pretty sure Apple's old mobileme had this feature too, but I didn't use it.

My ipad and iPhone have different email addresses in the FaceTime field but I can only get FaceTime to work on my iPhone, how can I get them both working on facebook

My ipad has a different email address than my iPhone, both are mine but I can only get FaceTime to work on my iPhone but seem unable to change the email address in that field

If the basics (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new) don't work, you'll need to bring the phone to Apple for evaluation

Can I use the same email address for facetime on 2 different devices (ipod touch and a mini)

can I use the same email address for facetime on 2 different devices (ipod touch and a mini)?
I've set up my daughters ipod touch last year all fine. She's had a mini this yr but when setting up facetime and entering her email address, which is used on the touch, I get an error message saying the address is already being used.
I thought you can use the same email address on multiple devices.

I have four different email addresses setup on my Mac, iPod Touch and my two iPads that I can select from and use as the email address with no problems at all.
Turn off FaceTime, and sign out of the Apple ID in the FaceTime settings, restart the iPad and try again. Turn FaceTime on again, sign in with the Apple ID and then try the email address again.

HT204053 I did not know my kids had set up an Itunes account for me with one user name and password. then i got an i phone and set it up with a different email address and new password. how can i get my accounts to merge so i can have all of my music on

I did not know my kids had set up an Itunes account for me with one user name and password. then i got an i phone and set it up with a different email address and new password. how can i get my accounts to merge so i can have all of my music on my iphone

Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

My husband and I share the same computer at home with different email address and apple IDs . My question is can I download music from my itune page to his Iphone?

Can I Share the itune music that I purchase with my husband even if we have different Apple ID passwords?

No, you cannot have the same primary email address used for two separate Apple IDs.
However, you can sign into the same email address on your separate devices for the purposes of receiving mail. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account.
Apple IDs are for using Apple services, like the App Store, iTunes, etc.
Email addresses (while used as the NAME of an Apple ID), are separate entities.

I use AOL for my work account, I can open an email on my iPad, my iPod Touch, my iMac, another iMac in the office and there are no issues at all. However, my AOL account is IMAP. I read email on the iPad, turn around and read and print from the iMac and someone else is accessing the email at the same time.
We access the same emails all the time as we have one generic email address that we both use. We like to multitask with AOL.
