HT4436 how do i setup a new email address/account for another family member in icloud

how do i setup a new email address/account for another family member in icloud?

They will need to get their own Apple ID - go to http://appleid.apple.com to set up a new one. You will need a different non-Apple email address from any already in use.
Then they will need a separate user account on the Mac, or their own computer. You can then set up the account and add an @icloud.com email address in System Preferences>iCloud.
Although you could set up an alias address on your own account, I should advise against this - once created you cannot detach an alias from the account so they wouldn't be able to move it to their own account at a later date and their email would be inextricably linked with yours.

  • I  changed my email Adress for my Apple ID.  How can I sign out of iCloud and put my new email address in for my Apple ID in iCloud?

    I changed the email address for my Apple ID and so how can I chAnge it to my new email Adress on my iCloud?

    You should have done it the other way arround. You should have started with signing out, before you changed your email. I would suggest to follow these steps...
    1. change your email address back to the old one
    2. delete your iCloud account from all your devices (especially turn off "Find My iPhone")
    3. change your email to your new email address aigain
    4. add your iCloud account again

  • TS3988 I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud?

    I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?

    Same question Wish someone had replied!
    I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

  • How do i create a new email address?

    how do i create a new email address in Mail?

    Have you already established a new email account with an email provider such as Apple, Yahoo, Google, etc.? From the email provider you will need to know the email address ([email protected]), and the password for the account. If this is a common used provider such as iCLoud, MS Exchange, Google, Yahoo, or AOL that is all you will need to know Mail will fill in the rest of the information automatically. For other accounts you will need to know the acount type (POP3 or IMAP), the URL for the POP or IMAP server, the security type for the server, the URL for the outgoing email server (SMTP) and the security type for it. Don't panic over all this, most email providers have instructions on their site for setting up Apple Mail -- you just have to find it.
    Once you have the information together, open Mail then on the menu bar at the top of the screen select Mail > Preferences > Accounts. Click on the plus sign at the bottom of the list of accounts and start by entering your new email address and password. Mail will then attempt to fill in the rest of the information it needs. If it is unable to do so, you will have to fill in the information yourself hopefully following the instructions provided by the email provider.

    Howdy Coralnut,
    It sounds as if you are having an issue with setting up your Gmail account on your iPhone for the purposes of using Messages, is that right? I would suggest that you use the steps in this article to troubleshoot -
    Gmail account cannot get or send email in iOS - Apple Support
    Specifically -
    Make sure your device is connected to the Internet by opening Safari and visiting www.apple.com.
    If you have other email accounts on your device, try to send and receive email from those accounts. If your Gmail account is the only one with the issue, fill out an unlock form, which proves your identity.
    Remove your Gmail account from your device and add it again: Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars > Add Account > Google. Enter your account information.
    Get more help
    If you have 2-Step verification enabled on your Google account, you'll need to generate an App Password to use with your iOS Device.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • How do I change the original email address that was used to set up iCloud

    I have just noticed that the email under system preferences for iCloud is an old one that does not exist anymore. How do I change this? Can you also tell me if I delete this account - will it affect what I have stored on the computer e.g. what is in my photos etc? I am a real novice when it comes to computers - so excuse my ignorance :-)
    Thanks for any assistance.

    You can change the (non-Apple) email address which forms your Apple ID to another one at http://appleid.apple.com. If you are going to do this you should follow this procedure to avoid problems:
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in (give it time).
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

  • How can i create a new email address and change it to my Apple ID?

    I set-up a me.com address but mispelled my name.  How can I crate another email address and update my icloud

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Just log out of the current account and create a new account and merge your data when prompted. You might be better exporting your data from calendars and contacts to your desktop before you start so you have a back up.

  • How do I create a new email address using Mozilla Firefox 5?

    I'm using Mozilla Firefox 5 as my Browser as I like it and Internet Explorer 9 doesn't work well with many sites I use. I would like to set up an email on your site, if possible, instead of my home email. I want to delete my old, other emails from Yahoo and deactivate that account. Can u help me? Do u have an email setup? I saw Thunderbird, but don't know if it's updated and it always has a popup that it's encrypted and not safe to use. Thank you. Geri aka FireFoxLady

    Thunderbird is a email client and the Thunderbird is still being maintained as Thunderbird 5.0 was released recently. In order use Thunderbird you need to have a email account somewhere. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/
    Firefox as you know is a web browser as the closest it deals with emails is when you view a webmail service at say Gmail or Yahoo or such.
    Mozilla themselves do not have a email service, at least not for the public as select Mozilla employees do have a @mozilla.com email address.

  • HT1920 I don't have the same email account as the one I originally started with, so when I try to log into the Apple store or iTunes it wants to send my password to my email.  How can I get my new email address and password?

    I would like to change my email address on my itunes account so I can get email updates.  How can I change it on my phone to correspond with my computer?And when I tried to get iheart radio on my iphone it gave me the "terms and conditions" pages but no button to "agree".  I need help.

    You can try getting the password reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com
    If you can't then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the password and your questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address to your account for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
