Is this for real or is this a hoax?

It's a scam (phishing) to try to get you to disclose your iCloud credentials. Apple requests that you forward these to [email protected]

I get an email from Apple? asking me to change my Apple ID password. Is this real?

I have been getting an email from Apple? asking me to change my Apple ID password. Is this real. I have never seen it before in many years of Mac use. I don't want to click on it in case it's fraudulent. Has this happened to anyone else?

If you were able to use your existing Apple ID and password to successfully log in to this site and post your question, then they remain valid and the email is a phishing attempt. Delete it.
To anyone else coming across this post who fell victim to this or a similar phishing scam by entering their Apple ID and password on the authentic-looking page linked in the email: your credentials have been stolen.
In that event follow the "Want to change your Apple ID or password" instructions on this Apple Support page: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/

my mail only receives certain messages . received email from apple saying mail is full and it isn'.
a lot of email that others send me don't even get to may mailbox.

Your icloud storage must be full, from emails, backups, and other data.
Go to
Settings>General>Usage. This tells how much storage is used on both iCloud and on the device.

The email is sent to your recovery email. That email is not the same as your Apple ID. If you haven't assigned one with your Apple ID do so here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/

I received and email from Apple Customer Support that my Id has been stolen and that I am to sign into the link provided and update by changing password. I am not certain that the email came from Apple.

It did not come from Apple. Do not click on the link and do not supply your password. It is a scam. You can report the phishing email to Apple here:
Phishing & Other Suspicious Emails
Once you have done so, delete it.

I am receiving emails from apple to reset my password that I have not requested

Hi wondering if anyone could help. About 3 weeks ago I received an email from apple that my apple ID was used to download an app that was not from the device which is normally used. This was initiated from the United States, I am in n.ireland. As this was not me I followed the instructions & changed my password. However the past 2 days I have received 7 emails from apple on how to reset my apple ID that I did not initiate & am concerned that someone is trying to get access to my apple account. Has this ever happened anyone else? If so how did you deal with the problem as I can't seem to get through to apple to discus the matter. Thanks

That's very scary. They might do it, but I personally have never had Apple contact me re id's except on their site when signing in. I suggest you DO NOT respond until you have a phone conversation with Apple security. They can verify if they sent you the e-mail and why.
While it's very possible it's true,again, I suggest you not respond until you speak to someone at Apple. I've often read here that when people sign in they are not allowed to because "someone else has used the id" type of statement.
Also, you should be able to go to the app store and see what apps you have downloaded.
Though it could have been a free app, have you checked to see if any were bought with your id account?
I've gotten these types of e-mails from places like USPS and FedEx which look amazingly authentic and were from their website. I also received an odd e-mail from my cousin in Ireland last year that clearly was not from him. It was also sent to others in his family in Ireland. I e-mailed him that I only opened it because it had a .ie, but suggested he change... Days later I received mail from 'him' - same name, but at yahoo.com.
Again, I would call Apple. You can also report it at [email protected], but I would not settle for that given your situation. If nothing else, call Apple sales (sales depts. anywhere answer fast) and ask them to transfer you to security. Apple will not want anybody accessing their name, and while it's unlikely, it's not impossible that it is someone phishing.
Hope this helps and can you let the support community know your results by posting on this thread when you're done? Thank you.
Hope this helps.

HT3376 I am not receiving emails in my Mail account. However, I am receiving them on my web based yahoo account and on my ipad. The other strange thing is that on my Mac, I have been receiving emails from Apple. How can i fix this problem?

I am not receiving email messages in my Mail account on my Mac OSX. However, emails are being received on my ipad and my yahoo web site. Also, all emails from Apple are going through in my Mail account. How do I fix this problem?

Well, the other person said theirs was working now. On yours let's try this...
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

Has anyone been receiving emails from Apple stating your acct will be frozen in 48 hours if you don't update your acct info?

I have called apple and been told to ignore it but the emails continue to come. As far as I can tell nothing has been frozen. Th

Definitely a phishing email. It's total nonsense. Delete all emails from Apple, Amazon, Paypal, your bank, and every other email that asks for your personal details. Any outfit you deal with are well aware of the necessary data, and have no need for you to tell them again.

Is it possible to use a iCloud email account to receive emails from Apple/iTunes/AppStore?

I an wondering if it's possible somehow to receive all the emails from Apple, iTunes Store or App Store (that normally go to the Apple ID email address) to the iCloud email account (@me.com, @icloud.com) instead.
Thank you.

Yes:
Create a new exisitng mail account for the existing gmail email address.
File > New > Exisitng Mail account
or
Menu icon > New Messages > Exisitng Mail account.
The Thunderbird Mail account wizard window will appear.
Enter your name
Enter full email address
Enter password - the same one you use to logon to see your gmail emails in your webmail account.
Select to remember password.
Click on Continue.
Thunderbird will look up the configuration files.
Usually, it auto checks for IMAP, so you should not need to alter anything.
When it has located server settings, click on 'Done'.
this will create the imap mail account in Thunderbird.
Once this has been done, check settings.
You can locate them either;
Tools > Account Settings for the mail account
or
Menu icon > Options > Account Settings
or
right click on mail accoutn in FolderPane and select 'Settings'.
This link tells you what the settings should be. You will need to select the 'Thunderbird' option to see full info.

Suggest you do not subscribe to see 'All Mail' folder.
It is only gmails archive of all your emails, so subscribing to see this folder will double the size of your profile and may cause some slowdown in performance.

Do not receive email from Apple when trying to reset iCloud password

Hello. I have an iphone set up an old iCloud account. I can't remember password. I then tried the iforgot procedure. But I do not receive any email from Apple after completing the procedure. I can't either use the "answer the questions" method, since I have not used mu actual birthdate !! (yes I know, stupid). Is there any way to contact anyone at Apple to help ?
Thanks

You need to give Apple Support a call - only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
