I can't create another account in Mail!

i have an existing @mac.com email account but i want to *create another Mail account* even thought i already have a @live.com email. I use my @mac.com email for ichat already, but when i try to sign in to Mail with that same account it says it cannot connect "check your password and username" but i am sure i putting the right information. I don't know whats happening.

Hi PrepeF,
Welcome to the forums.
Instead of trying to add [email protected], try the same email address as me.com. ie [email protected]
have you tried logging into the me.com website? if dose dose that work?

    Hi,
    I have been a long time user of Thunderbird. But I just ran into the weirdest problem: I can't see the main taskbar in Thunderbird and thus can't create another email account. What do?
    Pretty easy thing actually. That's all.

    Ok, that was to obvious.

  • I need to create an account for my daughter and I keep getting the message that the user id already exsists. When I checked to see if the user id was in the system it told me that it didn't find one. How can I create another account for her?

    I do not want to have to assign her another email address because this is the one she has used as long as long as she has had the ipod. She is under my email account but has her own address.What do I need to do to fix this? She got a card for Christmas that I can't put in to an account for her and she cannot use. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

    You must create the account using an Apple device, a Mac (Lion or greater) or an IOS device (IOS5 or greater). Having done that you will be able to sign in from your Windows machine.
    FYI, iCal is an application that can display calendars from iCloud (and others) it is not a calendar itself, merely a calendar client. In Windows Outlook is the calendar client.

    Thanks for responding and answering my question. If we decided to use my wife's icloud account as our primary, is there a way to "not sync" the incoming email with her iphone and ipad? That would simplify things greatly because she doesn't read any of her email on her iphone or ipad.
    If you don't want to sync the iCloud email account on her devices, all you would need to do is go to Settings>iCloud on her devices and turn Mail off.  This would remove the email account from her devices but would leave any other iCloud syncing services that you want to use with the account in place.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can create another account and hence another e-mail address, if that is what you are asking.

    I am new to IPAD and I want o use facetime, how can I use it to communicate with my mac at home, do I need to create another account with a different email account

    do I need to create another account with a different email account
    Yes, the email addresses need to be unique to each device. You may use the same Apple ID on each device, but the email address used by each device needs to be different.

  • Can I transfer money to other accounts on my iPad with iOS 5.1.1? I created another account and put an iTunes gift card on it, but then I realized that all of my apps are on another account, so how do I move that money over?

    Can I transfer money to other accounts on my iPad with iOS 5.1.1? I created another account and put an iTunes gift card on it, but then I realized that all of my apps ere on another account, so when I recovered the password of my previous account, I had money on an account that I do not want to use. Can I transfer the money over?

    Not on your own. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of the balance has been spent.

    I don't know if that works on the iPhone, but....
    View your SETTINGS and choose ICLOUD. That will give you your cloud settings. At the very bottom it has a delete button. Click it an see what happens. After deleting the account (and potentially loosing data connected with it) you should be able to log in to iCloud using your old id.

  • I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

    I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

    NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
    Step 1
    I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
    Step 2
    Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
    NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.

  • HT2731 can I add another account to my I tunes libary or do I need to create another i tunes libary

    I have an i tunes account i want to create another account for my wife using the same libary how can i do this?

    exactly, or 30 or 40, depending on how many texts u want. be sure to get a plan that u wont go over on texts, thats what drives up the bill quickly. if your not sure on how many texts u have left, call 611 on your phone or call *DATA# and a text message will be sent to your phone.

  • I deleted my hotmail account from Mac mail but I can't create the account again as it says it already exists

    I deleted my hotmail account from Mac mail but I can't create the account again as it says it already exists. I really want my hotmail back and for the hotmail folders to be accessible. Gmail is working and the folders are accessible. My iphone already receives my mail so I don't want to effect that.  Any help please?

    You need to post in the Mail forum area of whichever os you are using (which you did not indicate).

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • HT4889 I have accidentally created another account when using Migration Assistant to a new MBA. How do I now 'migrate' all the files from both accounts into one to save myself having two accounts, both of which are me? Help?

    I have accidentally created another account when using Migration Assistant to a new MBA. I have read that I probably should not have skipped migration in the initial set up and the problem would have been avoided but, alas, here I am. Does anyone know how I can 'migrate' all the files from one of the accounts that has been created to the other, so then I can delete it and have a single user on the computer seeing as I am the only person using it? I have read starting again, if this is the way to go, where is the best place to start 'starting again'?

    Yes definitely should see it but its not coming up (I don't think) when I log out of 2nd user and into the main account. Opening finder in the 2nd account, I can obviously find the public folder because thats where I dropped all the files, but when in the main account, it can't be found. The only public folder that comes up is the folder for that account (main account) and it does not display files I'm looking for. Frustrating....
    EDIT: Have found it through a round-about way but all music and photo and movie etc files have a red stop sign disallowing them from being transferred. Can you guess what the next question will be?

    Or, go to the App store, sign out of your current account. Try to make a purchase and it will ask you to sign in, or create a new account.
    You can do it through iTunes as well.
