HT201342 why would I need another e-mail address?

hi,  Why would I need another e-mail address.  When .me came out I thought that .mac would be erased so I gave everyone my .me account (even though I prefered the .mac name)  the .mac continued to work and now everyone sends me TWO e-mails which arrive at exactly the same place.  I can understand if the e-mails arrive at different mail boxes, then you could give your family one, your business another, your kids school a third, but why... why 3 accounts that go to exactly the same place.  I realise I don't have to use all 3 but can someone tell me how to get the most out of these e-mail addresses.  Thanks!

Just give out the one email address you want to use. They are all the same account anyway. People do not need to send emails to both email addresses so tell them to only use the one you prefer.

  • Why would you need an H.264 hardware encoding device?

    I am a casual user of Adobe Premiere Pro and just upgraded to CS5.5.   I have been reading threads and someone said that he has problems with the Matrox encoder.  I can import my video and make and DVD so why would you need another hardware solution? 

    I don't know how it works on Windows but on the Mac it shows up as a QuickTime component. So any application that can export a QuickTime movie (QuickTime Player, Adobe Media Encoder, Compressor, etc) can export to this component and it will utilize the Matrox hardware.
    Theoretically you could set your preview file format in Premiere to the Matrox component but I don't know how well it would work.

  • HT201342 Why do I need a iCloud address I really don't understand what e iCloud is? I'd like to sync calendars from my iPad to my Mac will this help we achieve this open to anyone's input w previews experience!

    Why do I need an iCloud email address? I mean I know I already have one set up but have never activated it what is the benefit?
    Also does it make it easier to sync items between devices ie I'd like to get the calendar on my iPad 2 to transfer to my MacBook pro and vice versa.
    Is it possible to activate iCloud syncing with out the iCloud email?
    Any advice would be much appreciated

    You can go to Settings>iCloud and enter you Apple ID to set up your account, then turn on syncing for the data you want to sync.  If you don't want to use iCloud email, don't turn Mail to On.  If you're Mac is runniing OS X 10.7.2 or later, you can sync it with your iCloud account.  You do this by going to System Preferences>iCloud, signing into your iCloud account, then checking the data you want to sync with iCloud (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html).
    If you sync your calendar on both your phone and your Mac with your iCloud account, then will remain in sync using iCloud.

  • HT4221 I really want my Apple TV, iPad and iPhone to sort them in date taken like in iPhoto on my iMac. How do I do that? Sorting on date modified seems so stupid to me, why would anyone need this? Date taken gives a timeline in your event.

    The unix commands you need are:
    GetFileInfo
    SetFileInfo
    and maybe find
    for cryptic details use the man command
    Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
    man SetFileInfo
    You may use the SetFileInfo command to set the file type & the program which will open the file.
    # This little gem will do a get info on all files in a directory.
    mac $ ls  | xargs -I {} GetFileInfo "{}"

  • What is the best way to sent a GROUP of pictures from Camera Roll to another e-mail address?

    Have a group (45-50) separate pictures taken - in Camera Roll - with iPhone camera.
    Need to send them to another e-mail address, but would like to send as a group (or series of smaller groups) rather than one at a time.
    Any suggestions for "bulk" selection of sharing?

    You can actually select up to 5 pictures at a time to email. Better choice would be to import them to the computer and send them that way, depending on any restrictions by the mail provider on attachment sizes, or you could use something like Dropbox and then just email the link to share with others.

  • Adding a forwarding link to send a pdf file to another e-mail address

    I would like to add a forwarding link to a pdf document that is available for download from my iWeb site. I would like someone to be able to forward the pdf file to another e-mail address. Can I do this in iWeb? If so, how?

    Isn't that decision rather made by the person who downloads the pdf.
    What if he doesn't forward the pdf and keeps it to himself?

  • Sending e-mail as another e-mail address a la Gmail feature?

    Hey all,
    I was wondering if I could be able to send my e-mail on my iphone IMAP Gmail as another e-mail address, a feature on my gmail when I log in on the web.
    I know you can do this in Mail, but was wondering if I could do this on the iPhone

    Brian Wong,
    That is a feature of using GMail's SMTP server.
    That is configured on GMail's website, and then you use the other account as your incoming mail server, and GMail's SMTP server as your outgoing server to relay that email address.
    It is independent of whether you are receiving that account with IMAP or POP3, since IMAP and POP3 are receiving email protocols.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • HT201342 So this Now means in reality I am gonna have another e-mail address / login / password to remember?.........when is Apple going to figure out a way to combine all of our current Apple ID's and Login's for iTunes, iCloud, etc into one?.......

    For instance....i have an old iTunes account login with an e-mail address from an old ISP that is no longer valid that apple forces me to still use and remember even though i have a former Mobile Me (.me) e-mail address that i use (and love for that matter and would love to continue using)......and now i have to have an iCloud login email as well.........how is it that this "Just Works" Apple?
    You all need to figure out a way for all your users to combine all their iTunes and iCloud and MobileMe accounts into one.......!!!!!

    You can continue to use them as Apple ID's, change the rescue address (as you know)
    You can use your iCloud address, but it won't be an alias, it's a full email address.

  • HT201342 Why would I want an iCloud email instead oh my mac,com address

    Use whichever you want, there are no additional benefits to using either.

    How can I add an e-mail address to my existing icloud account?  I curently only use one of the three.

    Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud account.  If you want, you can add up to 3 alias addresses that will receive email in the same iCloud inbox, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.
