Howdy there johnzcarp,
As I understand it you want to have more than 1 email address under your Apple ID. You can have what are called Alternate Email addresses associated with your Apple ID and this article will help you get those setup:
Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Alternate email address
You can add one or more alternate email addresses for use with Apple services such as Game Center, FaceTime, Find My Friends, iMessage, and OS X notifications.
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Select “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
Add an alternate address:
Select Add Email Address, then enter your alternate address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
Edit an alternate address:
Select Edit next to the address, then enter the new address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
Delete an alternate address: Select Delete next to the address.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

I have 3 drop down boxes in my report done SQL SSRS .. I want t to put them in the same row (just one row) ..how can I do it.?
Hi Sashi123,
Just as Ivan said, we do not have the ability to change the Report Manager in this way. Because we can’t change the parameters locations as this is not supported to write expressions for the location of parameters.
While we can build a custom application in Visual Studio that we can get it through codes after deploying the report, then through URL we can get it by customization.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong

I have multiple devices on the same account, can I increase my cloud allowance without paying extra?
Each device gives 5gig but multiple devices on the same account don't increase the cloud space. Do Apple recognise this and help?

Wow that's really harsh. Both my wife and daughter have disabilities and the idea of having one ID is to allow me to be able to track them quickly in times of emergency through 'find my iphone'. I did not realise this was 'creating a mess'. I thought support communities were intended to, you know, support people with genuine questions like mine not to rush to criticism. Unfortunately both answers to my question have been negative.
I am not being harsh, the truth is you are really creating problems for yourself e.g. calendars, contacts, etc. are all mixed up.
Support Communities are there to show you how to use the devices as intended, the "criticism" is about how you use the devices and not about you as a person. We are trying to help if you can listen.
You can use Find My Friends instead of Find My iPhone for your purpose. -
I have 2 Apple ID's, one attached to my iTunes account, and one attached to my iPhone. I want to change both to the same e-mail/Apple ID. any ideas on how I can do this without losing any info (contacts, songs, videos, etc.)?
Why would you create a new account?
All purchases will be tied to the account from which they were purchased.
You will have to authorize your computer for all the accounts from which music is purchased. -
Just got Airport Express to save on GBs of data. I have already a Westell 6100G which is for use as Internet Broadband, via Verizon. How do I set up the Airport Express with this Westell. Do I even still need the Westell, or do I need to also buy a wireless router? I'm a tech idiot and this is driving me nuts.
The Westell 6100G is a combination modem and router or gateway device. The AirPort Express is a wireless router.
Since the Express does not have a built-in modem, you will still need your Westell gateway in order to access the Internet.
Which exact model of AirPort Express do you have. It will be written (in very hard to read type on a label on one of the AirPort's sides). It should look something like: A1392. It may also state a Order#. In that case it would look something like: MC414LL/A
Regardless of which model you have, the basic network configuration would be that you would connect an Ethernet cable between the Westell's Ethernet port and the WAN (circle of dots) port on the Express. (Note: If you have an earlier model of the Express, you would connect the cable to the only Ethernet port on the Express.)
The good news is that you will not have to make any configuration changes to the Westell. We should be able to use it as configured.
What we are going to start with is getting a basic Wi-Fi network that should provide your computer with wireless access to the Internet. Once verified as working, we can fine-tune this network to include wireless security and any other goals that you may have.
Ready to start?
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the Westell and computer(s).
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the AirPort Express base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
Once the reset has completed, remove the AirPort Express from power.
Connect an Ethernet cable between the Westell and the AirPort Express.
Power-up the Westell; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results. -
I recently updated to Ios 5 and moved from MobileMe to the icloud. Now I have duplicate contacts on my phone - like 8 of each person! How do I get rid of them? My calendar is finally in sync....
I turned off syncing from Itunes and said yes to deleting them from the phone and now I only have one contact per person.
It only took a few hours to get past the fear of delete
hope this helps -
I know that mp3's take up less space, so I didn't realize I could've probably burnt a lot more files onto the CD. I burnt 10. I'd like to add more. Will it add them, overwrite what I already burnt or what? Just wondering before I do it. Thanks!
[I'm using a PC with Windows 7]If the disc is erasable then erase and burn all the tracks as desired. Audio CDs need to burned in one continuous action and the session closed. With data discs it may be possible to add to a previous session, but I don't know if iTunes supports that feature, and not every reader does which could be an issue.

I'm trying to use home sharing to share content between libraries so some of the combined content in a given library, can be synced to an ipad. Instad of having mulitple computers, i have multiple libraries on the same computer using two desktops. How do I share within the same computer?
iTunes must be running for home sharing to work. There is no way to have home sharing running simultaniously for two users on the same computer.
Simply add the media files using File > Add File/Folder option in iTunes. -
Sharing common mail account with multiple users on the same Mac
My parents recently switch to an iMac from a PC where they were using AOL. They had the PC set up with two users accounts and they did all their mail/internet using AOL.
With the new iMac, I wanted to set it up in the same way as the PC so I set them up with two user accounts and showed them how they can use Fast User Switching to switch back and forth. This works well for them because my father has mostly business stuff on the computer and my mom has mostly projects and they like to keep them separate.
Where they are getting into problems is that I have them both set up with Mail under their respective accounts to access their common AOL account. What seems to be happening is that in some cases one user will get a new mail whereas the other user might never see it. I had them configured using IMAP which I thought would be okay since the mail is stored on the server but now I am not so sure.
I'm thinking that it might help to set Keep copies of messages for offline viewing in the advanced tab to Don't keep copies of any messages, but I wasn't sure. Is a setup like this possible? Or is it just a recipe for trouble?What you’re observing is probably an AOL issue, not a Mail issue. AOL automatically purges mail from the server after some time (just a few days if the messages have already been read). There is nothing you can do about it other than moving/copying those messages somewhere else to avoid losing them.
You may also want to read the following article. It’s somewhat outdated, but still useful to understand how AOL’s IMAP access works:

Apple TV worked until today. Message says unsupported signal check your output device. I have checked hdmi cable with another device and it's fine. Put on a different tv and same message. Went out yesterday and bought a new Apple TV and same problem.
Which TV do you have.
You may wish to try the following:
Press and hold the menu and the up button simultaneously on the remote for six seconds, the Apple TV should then begin to cycle through the various resolutions available to it at 20 second intervals.. If you see a picture appear up on your screen, use the remote to scroll down to the OK option and select it. -
I attempted to update my iphone5 to 7.1.1 There was an error and now my phone is erased. I have attempted to restore from the cloud and it propogates the apple id with an old one, and will not allow me to restore from a the cloud
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I just bought apple tv. I have an ipad mini with ios 6.1.3. I want to do the mirroring but the airplay doesn't seem to be on my ipad. Can someone help?
Yes they are both connected to the same wifi network. Do you know when you double click on the home button and swipe right? The airplay button isn't there beside the play/pause and forward and backward button. It should be there.
