I cant access imessages says my email is already in use how do i fix this i only have one email

The login parameter was a username, I'm an early adopter.
I've set up a new account using an "[email protected]" email, but it doesn't solve the fact that I should have been able to reuse my normal email as the account associated with it was deleted (supposedly?).
As for the sync errors, I keep getting them, but have narrowed them down to bookmarks syncing. I'll create another thread for that when I know more I guess.

IMessage verify error,says unable to verify because email address already in use,how do you fix this? IOS 5

As header says how do you fix this?

I had two Apple accounts prior to iCloud's debut along with a separate MobileMe account. I'm not sure how things were set up prior, but now with iCloud, I just realised that I can log in to apple.com with my former MobileMe email address. So now I have three Apple accounts.
I use my former MobileMe email address to log in to iMessage. If you don't do this, when you try to use the temporary location sharing feature of Find My Friends, you'll get some kind of error message regarding this.
The additional email address I wanted to add to iMessage was used as the primary Apple ID for one of my other Apple accounts and as a secondary address in the other. I had to resolve both of these issues before I could use this email address as a secondary address with iMessage. For the former, I had to use a different email address for the primary Apple ID while for the latter, I had to simply remove the email address as a secondary address in the account.
You can manage all your Apple accounts at https://appleid.apple.com. Hope this helps.

When you email from iPhoto, you have a choice as to the size of the picture - choose medium and your friends will be able to see them. By the way, do your friends click on the photo attachment in the mail to open it?

I cant Access creative cloud on my windows 8.1 desktop, how can i fix it ?

I'm wondering if I'm having the same issue. When I try to launch the Creative Cloud app, the app appears to launch, but the main area is white.
I am running Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit - all updates are applied.
Here are some things I've tried:
I've tried restarting my computer.
Disabling my firewall/antivirus (Avast)
Uninstalling and reinstalling the Creative Cloud app.

TS3988 In my settings I am trying to use my iMessage and face time through my phone, but it is frozen saying "waiting for activation..." How do I fix this so I can iMessage and FaceTime?

I am trying to turn on my IMessage and FaceTime features on my iPhone 4S. When I go to settings, iMessage or FaceTime, and turn them on, it is frozen saying "waiting on activation..." How do I fix this so I can use my phone?

If a phone is sold from one friend to another and wants to use it on a different carrier the friend can contact the carrier it was sold by to request it unlocked. I know AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint will give you the steps to unlock it as long as the original contract it was bought under has been completed. eBay/Craigslist is really not the best place to try to get "unlocked phones" from, if it turns out the phone isn't unlocked then I'm really sorry you got stuck with that one and as stevejobsfan said above I would report them immediately and see if you can recover your money. I sell phones for a living and this happens a lot

When i use imessage on my ipnone 4 it comes up as my email on my wifes iphone. how do i fix this to where it shows up as my phone number?

when i use imessage on my ipnone 4 it comes up as my email on my wifes iphone. how do i fix this to where it shows up as my phone number?

Had the same problem and trying to remember how I fixed it. Let's see...
Try this:
1) Settings > Messages > Receive At > Use your Apple ID for iMessage > make sure you are logged out from Apple / iTunes.
2) under "You can be reached for messages at:" > make sure only your phone number shows and no email address.
Hope that works, if not I just can't remember what else I did. However I got it working so that my tel number now shows to iMessage recipients instead of my email address.

OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages - Apple Support
Google Mail recently implemented additional security measures "for your protection" of course. The manifestation of that may be the requirement to create a unique, "application-specific" password for each one of the various Google services you may use. That requirement probably includes Google Mail. So if the above Apple Support document doesn't resolve the problem, research Google's application-specific password requirements, and how to configure Mail to use it.
I asked the Hosts to edit or obscure the email address in your post.

HT5312 what if I only have one email address and I cant use a rescue email address

is any one out there
this is not worth it, I have about 5 different windows open and still havent gotten an answer to a simple question

There are people here, but we are just fellow users on these forums, and it's not 'live chat'
If you only have one email address then you won't be able to set a rescue email address as it needs to be different to the main address on your account. You should be able to create a free email account via gmail, hotmail etc.

Trying to create itues account for children's school ipad and says does not meet min age. Tried to go back and fix bday as was put in incorrectly and still says "does not meet min age". How do I fix this?

I'm trying to create a new apple account for my daughter's school ipad. She put in her bday incorrectly and said "does not meet age requirements". We went back and put in her correct date (over 13) and still says "does not meet age requirement". How do I fix this??

The old rule of thumb was to keep 10-12 GB free. Any lower than that and you will start to have trouble. I was very close to that for a long time and never had any complaints. Now, Lion "encourages" 20% free space (on my newer 250 GB drive) so I try to keep it with more than 50 GB free.
Do you still have the original memory in that machine too? The metal plate you have to remove in the battery compartment also provides access to the RAM. Your machine will take 2 GB of RAM, possibly 3. You definitely want to max that out too.
Regardless, you definitely need a new hard drive. When Apple switched to PC components, they had to take a quality hit. These 2.5" notebook hard drives are not very reliable. I'm surprised your hard drive hasn't died by now. I usually get a new hard drive with every major OS upgrade. A $ 50 investment every couple of years is no big deal.
Unfortunately, you (and I) suffer from being an early adopter in 2006. Those 32-bit machines only accept 2 GB RAM (maybe 3) and are only 32-bit so they can't be upgraded to Lion. Because of this limitation, you won't see as dramatic an improvement as you would with a 2007 machine. If you run more than a couple of applications, your hard drive is always going to have to be doing some VM work. My 2006 machine has even lost its bluetooth. I gave it to my brother. My very similar 2007 Macbook is still running great.
So, you must get a new hard drive because your old one is likely on death's door. If you don't have at least 2 GB - get it. If you can't afford a new machine, you might want to consider an SSD. That might help mitigate your RAM limitations. You can spend from $ 100 to $ 350 and get a dramatic speed improvement.

When I try to save a document a message comes up saying "Couldn't auto-save document." How can I fix this? Thank you for your help!

When I try to save a document a message comes up saying "Couldn't auto-save document." How can I fix this? Thank you for your help! - Chip

This is a mean one. I don't have time to try and find the cause, but at least some answers to your questions, to hopefully shed some more light on this.
Where was the original destination? iCloud folder.
On another drive? Tried to Save as... to Hard Drive (also changing name of file), always get the same non-descript short Error "Couldn't auto-save document." (slides down from top with a yellow warning triangle). Status to the right of document name is "Not Saved".
Another Server? No access at this time.
I also tried File, Revert to, Browse all versions, to check what I'd be losing. Saw I wasn't losing much and selected the last version and pressed Restore - same error. In the end I just quit Pages and re-opened. The document opened with the last few edits missing (but with the status "Edited" next to the name). I re-edited and could save. Good old habit of saving often.
