HT201342 iCloud email

hello..
i changed my email address for my apple id .. and the icloud is still with the last email ..
how can i change it to the new one ? and keep all my data to the new email address ??
BTW in the icloud prefrence in my mac .. there is no button or edit "change" my icloud email address .. theres is just signout !! and i afraid ti lose my data

To change the iCloud ID ("email") on your iOS device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
To change the ID on your Mac, sign out, then sign back in with the changed ID. If you only changed your ID and didn't create an entirely new ID, you can choose Delete at all of the prompts when you sign out. This only deletes the data from your Mac, not from iCloud. Your data will download back to your Mac when you sign back in.

HT201342 icloud email address in use by another person

Hello, what do I do if Apple has assigned my icloud email address, after I have setup mine, to another person as well. So that I am in effect getting their Facebook messages to my icloud account

It may be then that your dhcp server has your MBP's MAC address associated with an IP address with long lease time.
I would suggest you flush the dhcp table on your router.

HT201342 iCloud email seems to be working but darned if I can find a way to delete the old emails off it ... can you help please?

Have iCloud email set on ipad and PC but cannot delete and old emails received through icloud.
How do you delete old emails ... I just get a line through them but they never delete. Thanks

Spoke to my provider and advised that the email I have with them is a POP3 account, incoming mail is POP but outgoing mail is SMPT so have 2 servers and it seems like the Icloud will only recognize a single server.
iCloud does nothing for external email accounts provided by another company.
Only your @icloud.com (or @me.com or @mac.com) email address provided by Apple has anything to do with iCloud.
Issues related to non-iCloud email accounts should be directed to the company providing the email account.

HT201342 @icloud email setup notification - When?

I still haven't received my @icloud email account setup notification. Have others been notified, and is there a way to prod apple to get this done before the open ended "few weeks" advertised to get this done? Its been 4 weeks since IOs6 was released. I wouldn't care other than I am trying to dump my existing email account and want to use my @icloud account.

I haven't heard of anyone having recieved the notification email. However, some people (including me) have found their @icloud.com address is working for both incoming and outgoing email despite not having been notified.
Try yours.

HT201342 iCloud email on Outlook

I can't send icloud email by following "Set up iCloud mail on your devices" , on both MS Outlook 2007 and 2010. I can receive, but... What's wrong?

smtp.mail.me.com should work but someone reported he was able to get it to work using p99-smtp.mail.me.com - I've no idea whether it might work for you. The 'p' numbers are added to the server addresses by Apple and seem to be on a geographical basis (so that you don't get the whole world using the same server). Normally you shouldn't have to add them yourself, and this well may not be the right number anyway, but you could give it a try. No promises.

HT201342 icloud email address password

An icloud email address was setup for me when I got an iphone but I don't know what to use as the password. How do you change the password?

Hi WallyTunes,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The following article will explain how to change your iCloud (Apple ID) account password:
iCloud: Change your iCloud password
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617
Important: If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud as you do with other Apple services such as the Apple Online Store, iTunes Store, Mac App Store, or to purchase products in iPhoto or Aperture, changing your iCloud password also changes your password for these services. Make sure you sign in to those locations using your new password.
Cheers,
- Judy

HT201342 Two icloud email accounts with same apple ID

Just got my new iphone 5 and gave my 4 to my wife. I have an apple ID and my own icloud email. How can she get an icloud email address using my apple id? No need for her to setup her own apple ID as we share the same account.

She can't. She needs to setup her own AppleID and then create an iCloud account using that.
You can still continue to share your existing AppleID for iTunes and App Store purchases.

HT201342 I would like to transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to a different apple id. Is this possible?

How can I transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to another apple id?

It isn't possible. If you need to use a different iCloud account with a different ID as your primary iCloud account, you can still set up your other iCloud address as a secondary account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, signing in with your ID and turning Mail to on. It will be fetch rather than push email, however, as push is only supported in the primary account.

HT201342 What is the difference between an @me email and an @icloud email address?

What is the difference between using an @me email address for iCloud and the new option of an @icloud email address offered?

The @icloud address operates like an alias to your @me address. Any email sent to either your @me or @icloud address is routed to your current @me inbox. It's just another address that you can use as an alternative to your @me address if you want.

HT201342 My iTunes account is under my @yahoo email address and I became accustomed to my @Me email and now like the idea of the @iCloud email address that was made. My question is can I change my iTunes account to my @iCloud name without losing my purcha

My iTunes account is under my @yahoo email address and I became accustomed to my @Me email and now like the idea of the @iCloud email address that was made. My questions are....can I change my iTunes account to my @iCloud name without instead of my @yahoo name without losing my years snd years of purchases ? Can I also create an @Mac address ? ....or is my @yahoo and my @iCloud already recognized as the same by apple and my purchases would already be fine as well as restoring my devices ?

Your purchases are permanently tied to the Apple ID (account) used to purchase them. They can't be moved to another account and you can merge accounts. You can start making new purchases with your iCloud ID if you want, but you will end up with two sets of purchases under two different IDs, adding further complication to your life.
Also, your @icloud email address is an alias of your existing @me address; emails sent to either address will be routed to the same inbox. You can decide which one you want to use as your default (as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5441) but you can't separate them.

HT201342 My icloud email address is misspelled. How can I correct this?

My icloud email address is misspelled. How can I correct this?

You can't change an iCloud (@mac, @me or @icloud) email address without creating a new account. You can, however, create an email alias with the correct spelling and use that. It will be linked to your current iCloud account and receive email at the same inbox. This guide explains how to create an alias: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

HT201342 I deleted my icloud account but now need my original icloud email address. I can't remember what it is!!!

I deleted my icloud account . . . How can I retrieve my original icloud email address? I need it to reset up my account.

Did you set up iCloud with the same Apple ID you use to post here? If another ID, do you know what that is? If so in either case, just sign in in System Preferences>iCloud to set your account up again; your email will still be there together with any messages which have arrived.

HT201342 what is the max size of attachment that possible to send with icloud email?

what is the max size of attachment that possible to send with icloud email?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
There isn't an attachment size limit as such, the limit applies to the entire message including all attachments, which is 20 MB.
if you are using a mail application to send emails (ie not via a web browser) you may be subject to smaller limits imposed by your own ISP.
