I have ended up with 2 apple ID's and want to cancel 1 of them and merge everything together.  How can I do this?.  Ive tried changing my sign in to the same email address but it wont accept it.

When I signed on at Christmas an update was available on my ipod classic.  When I updated it...... it then crashed and when I took it to the store they dismissed it and said its a driver/hardware problem  (which it didnt have before I updated it to the latest version) anyway its now dead.
I also have a nano that was purchased as a present for me and I want to add the nano to the same account but it wont let me as it was originally set up in a different account.  I have tried to cancel/delete that account but it still wont let me add the new nano to the original account.   Can anyone help wih this please?.

    If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
    With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
    But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person

  • HT201493 My Wife and I share the same email address but each has an IPhone. We would like to have both of us individually on find friends but cannot do it via the email route. how is it done?

    My wife and I share the same email address but have separate IPhones. We would like to have each phone individually on "find friends" but cannot do it via email route. How is it done?

    make seperate appleID's if you wish to be frinds or if you wish to facetime video chat and if you wish to not recieve the samme imessage msg's unless you turn it off
    you can still set both your iphones to use an email address even if both have different appleId's
    the appleID is a handle not a link to an email address

  • TS1398 We a trying to start a apple ID acc for my daughters new IPod touch. I have a apple ID acc with mt Iphone. It wont let us use the same email address, but wont let us use a fake one either. What do we do?

    we are trying to open a apple ID acc for my daughters IPod touch.I have a apple ID acc with my IPhone. It wont let us us use the same email ( she doesnt have one) but wont let us us a fake one. What do we do?

    The only way to get an apple ID is to have an email account you've never used before. The only thing you can do is make her an email.

  • HT204380 can you face time between 2 devices which are registered to the same email address

    can i use face time between my iphone 4s and my sons ipod touch 4th gen eventhough they are both registered to the same apple account and same email address?

    Yes you can. You just need a unique e-mail address on the iPod to call. I can FaceTime from my phone to my iPad since we have my wife's e-mail as the FaceTime contact.

  • I deactivated my apple id and want to add another id to my icloud acc,how can I do this without deleting all my data from my ph?

    There is an option to delete the account, but then it says it will delete all my data, which I dont want to happen.

    When you delete icloud account off your phone it will ask you if you want to keep or delete the data. You will choose to keep and will be ok. The only thing that will reset is photostream, so if that is a concern, back up your pictures.

  • EWS Managed API: Email sender name incorrect if loading properties of multiple emails and several emails have same email address (but different names)

    Hi,
    I have an issue using the Exchange Web Services Managed API. I'm essentially implementing an 'inbox', and am essentially using two calls:
    folder.FindItems(filter, view) with the view set up with the 'idonly' property.
    The returns a 'FindItemResults<>' object containing a set of items.
    And then calling service.LoadPropertiesForItems(items, props), where the props contains all 'first class properties', which includes the sender details.
    Now, the inbox contains several emails from the same email address but with different displaynames.
    E.g. There may be one email from "Bob <[email protected]>" and another email from "Alice <[email protected]>" and another email from "Charlie <[email protected]>" etc.
    The issue is that in the information that EWS returns from the call to LoadPropertiesForItems, every email ends up with the same sender name (from the first one in the list)!
    i.e. When I enumerate through the returned items, the item.Sender.Name will always be"Bob" for every email where Sender.Address is [email protected] 
    I have debugged this with a http sniffer just to ensure that it really is the EWS coming back with this information rather than anything in the managed layer.
    Is this a known issue? How can I work around this (without querying every single email for the sender name individually, as that would be too slow)?
    Thanks

    Hi Venkat,
    Thanks for the reply.
    The scenario is that the client receives emails from a (3rd-party) automated system. The email address from this automated system is always "noreply@<blah.com>", while the display name is used to differentiate the actual sender.
    I suspect that this kind of system will likely become more widely used, and so for us will increase in priority (obviously its a priority for our client already)!
    Just for the record, if this is a known issue do you have a bug number or equivalent for it? (I tried to search but couldn't locate it).

  • Someone has the same email address as me!

    I know this shouldn't be possible but it's happening!  I have an apple email address [email protected] and as I understand it that automatically gives me [email protected] too.  I don't ever use the icloud domain but I have tested it and if I send an email to [email protected] I receive the email.
    A month or so ago I received a load of emails, receipt etc. for a purchase that had been made on a website, registered to the email address [email protected]  I presumed someone must have entered the wrong email address and so contacted the website owner and said I'd been sent these emails in error.  They contacted the person and came back to me saying that they had said the email address was correct.  I asked them to contact them again (they are in Australia, I'm in the UK) and explain what was happening, double check the email address and ask if they had been receiving my emails.  The response was that the email address was definitely correct, they didn't use it very often and no, they hadn't been receiving my emails.  They couldn't help me any more and so I thought maybe they hadn't realised they'd made an error with the email address. I emailed them on [email protected] but I heard nothing more.
    Now the same thing has happened with another website.  Whoever is using this email address has subscribed to a website, paid a fee for membership and I received all the emails, a receipt, documents that came with the purchase and also a login username and password.  I logged into the site, it worked. Unfortunately there was no area where I could leave a message.  Once again I have emailed them on [email protected]  I have also searched for the person on Facebook using [email protected] and if I've found the right person they are only a young teenage girl.  Again I have emailed them on [email protected] and asked them to contact me on another email address.  I have heard nothing so I don't know if they received the email... I received it though!
    I don't know how 2 people can be allocated the same email address but what is really worrying me is that if I am receiving emails intended for someone else are they receiving my emails?!!!  That would really be a security problem as my email address is registered to lots of websites, my utilities etc.
    Can anyone shed any light on how this can happen?  I have put a telephone support request into Apple but the earliest was in 2 days.

    The websites that she has signed up to I have logged in and there is no message asking for email verification which suggests she is receiving emails.
    If they could sign in using an email address that isn't verified then all the website owner has is her word that she is receiving their emails.  Besides, if there had been a verification email for these sites, you would have seen it too; which suggests that there wasn't.
    Once you get the password changed they will not be able to receive any email from the account, even if they do now.  That may not be the end of the problem, however, as there would still be nothing to prevent them from continuing to use the address to sign up on websites that don't verify the address.  If it persists, you may have to either create a new iCloud account in order to get a new email address, or create an alias address to use within the existing iCloud account and stop using your main address for email.  Then you can set up an email rule on icloud.com that sends email from the main addres to the trash where it is deleted 30 days later.  This explains how to create an alias address: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a.  This explains how to set up an email rule: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a3f8a.  Good luck.

  • I can only see three weeks of emails on the imap email account on my iMac even though the same email address set up as a pop account on my iPhone, iPad and another iMac show all my emails.  How do I change the setting to see more emails?

    I have two iMacs, an iPhone, and an iPad.  All use the same email address but the new iMac would only let me set up the email account as an imap account. On this iMac I can only see three weeks worth of emails.  On the other iMac, iPhone, and iPad, this email address is set up as a pop account and I can see emails as far back as three years.  I use Yosemite on the new iMac and I cannot find out how to change the settings to let me see more than three weeks worth of emails.  This is an att&t email account which is basically a Yahoo account.

    Nope. It will reset all settings. For fix errors.
    Or you can try Logging out and Restart your iPad and Sign in again.

  • I created my Apple ID in Ireland, but would now like to switch to a German Apple ID, keeping the same email address. How do I delete my old Irish Apple ID, so I can create a new German one with the same email?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
    In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
    You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support.

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user.  That user can have all his/her devices synced with the same Apple data (email, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) .  When two people use the same account, then problems usually occur when one user edits data that the other user doesn't want changed on their device.  You can continue sharing the same ID for the itunes account in order to share the purchased music, apps, etc.  itunes accounts and icloud accounts are different.
    It's by far better that each user has his/her own icloud account.
