HT4897 can you switch alias email to main account email

can you switch alias email to main account email

Roger,
Do you know if this is still the case? That an alias cannot be deleted from one icloud account and then used to create a new icloud account?
I have used my first name as an alias on my wife's icloud since it was a dot mac address....it seems it would be beneficial to separate us now, with my having a new first.name@icloud address....but I don't want to even start the process unless ....
Thanks in advance and let's hope cheery England sees skies as blue as I have in Sonora soon!

  • Swapping Sub-account email for Main account email ...

    Hi,
    Some years ago when we first set up BT broadband my son entered the details online and set his email address as the primary account. He's now moving on and I'd like to update this to have my email (currently a sub-account) as the main account email. How can this be done? Any guidance greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    David

    can you have multiple phones on same user email

    If you mean can they share the same iCloud account, yes.  Just be aware that when multiple devices share the same iCloud account, any data they sync with the account will be merged and the merged data will appear on all of the devices.  Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting contacts) will also be taken on all other devices sharing the account.  Finally, the iCloud backups of all the devices will share the same iCloud storage space.

  • Can you set different sounds for different incoming email accounts?

    Can you set different sounds for different incoming email accounts? Example, I have multiple email accounts on Mail. I would like the sound for my roadrunner account to be different from my .mac and personal website accounts. Is it possible to configure this or is there a script out there that someone knows about.
    Thanks

    You could choose None in Preferences > General > New Mail Sound and set up a rule for each account in Preferences > Rules as follows:
    If [any/all] of the following conditions are met:
    [Account] [AccountName]
    Perform the following actions:
    [Play Sound] [Sound]
    Problem is, that would cause the sound to be played for junk mail as well — probably not what you want.

  • HT204150 can you have more then one itunes account on an icloud?

    can you have more then one itunes account on an icloud?

    I Have two iTunes accounts because I spend half the year in Canada and other half in U.S.
    I Just  switch the country. I have to do this because an iTunes card purchased in the U.S. Is not valid in the Canada store. And Vice Versa.
    i Also have two icloud accounts. That is what I don't know about.
    Do I need two? Can I have all my purchases in each country under one account?

  • Can you have more than one iTunes account with home sharing, Can you have more than one iTunes account with home sharing

    Can you have more than one itunes account at one time with apple tv

    My understanding is that the home sharing is based off of being on the same Wifi.  So if someone brings their laptop to your house and connects to your Wifi and they have home sharing on they can connect so you can see his/her iTunes library on your iTunes. 
    I haven't tried this though.  We have two laptops at home, both using my iTunes account and I can see each other's iTunes library, which I'm guessing is what you're probably doing now.  I'd be interested to know if my thought above is true. 

  • Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same macbook pro?

    Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same MacBook Pro?
    Specifically, I used the Migration Assistant to move music and photos from my old PC to my new MacBook. 
    Somehow, I missed the fact that it was creating a new user account when it was doing this.  So none of music and photos are in the user account I originally set-up.  Instead, all these files are now in a different account.
    I'd like to consolidate all my files on the one user account and delete the other one.
    Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it?
    Thank you.

    you can crop files from one account to another using the Public Dropbox which every user account has.  Log into the user that has the files you want to move, then drag the folder you want to the new users' dropbox:
    I suggest a small scale test on a few files first before moving gigabytes of files.

  • Can you have multiple users for one account?

    Can you have multiple users for one account? if so how do you set it up.
    We are using it for our department and it would be great to see who created what form instead of it being all one name.

    Each person should have their own account. You can easily share the forms with other people in your department. You will be able to see who the author of the form is.

  • How can you add a 2nd i Tunes account on the same computer?

    How can you add a 2nd i Tunes account to the same computer?

    I had an application where I spawned (= ran with Start Asynchronous Call) multiple (reentrant) copies of VIs, and would occasionally "lose control" of them.  I needed a way to find all VIs that were running "Top Level" and stop them (so I didn't have to log off from Windows).
    I used the Application Property "All VIs in Memory" to get an array of (wait for it ...) All VIs in Memory.  I took each name, opened a VI reference to it (simply wire the name string in, as the VI is, by definition, "in memory"), looked at its VI Execution State, and if it was Run Top Level, Invoked the FP.Close and Abort VI Methods.  [To prevent the VI that did all this from "committing Suicide", I compared the name string with the current Call Chain, and did nothing if there was a match].
    I think you could adopt this idea to do what you need.
