TS4002 Issue getting iCloud email into Mac

Dear All,
I have a problem getting my icloud email into Mac
Sometimes the email came in very late and not real time
Othertime, it just does not come in at all
However, this do not happen for my icloud email in my iPhone
All the email comes in.
Anyone has similar issue?

Try going back to http://appleid.apple.com and changing the ID back to the original address. If you can get this accepted, then go to the iCloud preferences/settings pane, stop 'Find My ....', and then sign out. Do the same on any other devices or computers.
Then go back to http://appleid.apple.com and change the ID to the new one. Sign in with that on all your devices.
However as the address which forms the original ID is now not working it can't be validated and it's possible that you won't be able to revert to it. In this situation only Support can help you.
To contact iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee.

I can't sign in to my iCloud in my mac laptop

im trying to sign in to icloud in my mac laptop and it wont let me sign in

I have just had this problem myself with iCloud and not being able to sign in, but my macbook Pro was brand new and right out of the box. it had the OS X Lion v.10.7.4. So, I called Apple, but they said they have never heard of this, but it has happened to many, many others. the Apple people could not help me, but where I go to university there is an awesome tech program and they were able to help me out... after 2 hours though of the techies searching the internet for answers...
SOLUTION:
be in your Finder and go to the menu bar.
open the "Go" option and go down to "Go to Folder..."
type in "~/Library/" and press enter.
then open the "Application Support" folder
delete the "iCloud" file/folder
try signing back into iCloud under System Preferences
*this is what has worked for me anyways ... and hopefully for you too.
Also, my Safari kept quiting unexpectantly, so we installed Safari6Lion.pkg from... http://discussions.apple.com/message/19096754#19096754

Can you start up holding Command R to access your recovery partition? If so run Disk Utility to repair the boot volume, if not your hard drive may have failed. Without more information it's kinda hard to tell.

You can't change it but you can create an alias to use.

How to stop ios mail deleting icloud email from mac mail?

This is driving me insane.
I have an icloud email address set up on my iphone and mac mail.
I want to leave emails on my phone 'on the server'. Read them when i'm out, delete them... come home and have them all come through on mail where i'll deal with them.
Right now if I delete them on my phone, they're deleted on mac mail also.
I have all my regular email addresses set up to do this. Except the one icloud address I want to move everything to!!!
Help!!!

Hello there David DW,
It sounds like your iPhone does whatever your iPad does with regard to joining or forgetting a Wi-Fi network. From what you are describing it seems to me that iCloud Keychain is enabled, as this is a function of that feature. The only way to stop what you are seeing from happening is to disable iCloud keychain on one of the devices:
Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
iCloud Keychain keeps your Safari website usernames and passwords, credit card information, and Wi-Fi network information up to date across all of your approved devices that are using iOS 7.0.3 or later or OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later.
You can do this in your iCloud Settings:
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn on or off iCloud features.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

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.

Can i hide icloud emails from mac mail?

hi.
i have all my old @me email address set up in my mac mail app but now iCloud as kicked in i also see duplicates of them with @icloud.
it makes my list of emails to send from seem much larger than it is.
is there any way to hide the @icloud emails from the list to keep it more simple?
cheers

hey. what im saying is that when i send an email i can see (from the drop down menu) all my emails that i can send from.
i have duplicates of those in the list...
so i see
[email protected] AND [email protected]
so... for about 3 or 4 emails i see 8 available email addresses to send from.
is there a way of hiding the @icloud emails so my list isnt so long and confusing.
do you see what im saying now?

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 change icloud email domain

How do I change my email address on my icloud email?

You can't change the primary address - the one you set up when you opened the account. You can add up to three email aliases, which are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main address. Details here:
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
All new aliases will take the form [email protected] You cannot change the domain (the part after the '@').

Mac Mail won't go online

I am using a MAC PRO version 10.6.7, I recently went with Charter cable and opened a new e-mail account with charter. The mailbox worked fine with embarqmail and Gmail but it won't go online with Charter and I can't send mail unless I go online and sign into Charter. Is there a fix or just quit Charter and go back to satellite?

My icloud emaila ccount is showing 1970 for the email dates and all of the emails are white apart from the the senders name. What do I do?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

How do I get iCloud on my mac laptop running 10.6.8?

I recently purchased a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, running 10.6.8. , mac lap top. There is no icon in the preferences menu
How do I get iCloud on this machine? I wish to sync all of my other mac devices. G5, imac, iPhone, iPad

iCloud only comes with OSX 10.7.2 or later, you need to upgrade your OS. Go to the Mac App Store and try downloading OSX Mavericks. The store will only let you download it if your computer meets the required specifications.
If you are told your Mac is not compatible with Mavericks, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

HT201342 changing icloud email address

I made a typing error in my email address, which is very annoying, how do i change it, re-register, it doesn't seem possible

Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the 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, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
More information on aliases here:
