HT204053 Do I have to create an iCloud address to stream my pictures to my other devices?
Do I have to create an iCloud address to stream my pictures to my othe devices? Can I use my regular e-mail address?
Welcome to the Apple community.
Yes, you need an iCloud account in order to use photos stream to share your photos between devices. You can use your own e-mail address as a primary address and Apple ID for the iCloud account if you wish to do so.

Hi, I have a macbook pro 10.6.8 and an iphone 4s. I have already created an icloud account. I want my normal mails to be saved on icloud. how should i go about?
I'm not sure I understand your question really, but one thing for sure is that you need Lion for iCloud to work.

I have verified my new email address as my Apple ID but my IOS devices keep asking me to sign in to my previous email/Apple ID but have no access to it. How can I stop or change this?
To change the iCloud ID 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. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going 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. 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 back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

My iPad, Macbook and Apple TV are all set up with the same iCloud email address. I bought the iPhone 6 and accidentally set the iCloud up with a different email. My phone will not let me change the email address to be the same as my other devices, it tells me that email is already being used. How do I delete the iPhones iCloud account and reinstall it to match my other devices.
Yes it will, just sign out, then sign back in with the correct address.
Settings>iCloud>Sign Out. -
Library content- I have several apple products... Music and pictures vary on all devices. How do I synchronize and retrieve older content. Thanks
Sync all devices to the same content in your iTunes library.
Older content? What kind? I could type in 2 pages of how to get other things from place to place but won't unless you have more specific questions. -

All that does is delete the iCloud account on your phone, nothing more.

As you already knew, no, you cannot create a new iCloud account from anything but the above devices.

Do have to create an icloud email address?
Do you have to create an Apple iCloud email address? I have enough email addresses already.
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.
You should however 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:

Can I have 2 different countries billing address under one Apple ID? I mean 2 countries credit card info for payments at the same time under one Apple ID.
I do travel very often to overseas. I'm having problem with few apps that can not be updated when I'm using another countries store. I do have 2 countries billing address. So when there is an update I need to switch my county & billing address for few selected apps. I was wondering if I have option to add both countries as my billing address that would be great under same Apple ID. Is this option available?You can only have one credit card and billing address on your account at any one time.

HT204053 can i have more than one icloud email
I want safe and add free email addresses for my kids to use face time. since the family shares 1 apple id, is this possible with icloud?
If your kids want to use FaceTime independently, they need their own AppleID. To create an AppleID they need a non-Apple email address. Just get a free Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail or whatever address then go to http://appleid.apple.com/ to create their AppleID.
You can't create additional separate email addresses under your existing iCloud account. -
HT204053 can I have more than one iCloud account?
I have a personal iCloud account, but would like to set up an iCloud account for my business that I can share between my associates. A tech at the appple store suggested it, but now I'm unsure if or how to do it. Any suggestions?
Welcome to the Apple community.
Yes you can use more than one iCloud account, however you can only have one primary iCloud account.
Secondary accounts can be added at system preferences >mail, contacts & calendars. Note, secondary accounts can only use mail, contacts, calendars and cannot utilise things like photo stream.
