I need help accessing my Mac email

My problem is on my iPad I have no problem using my iTunes however when I try to sign in on my iPhone it has a different email ( Mac.com)  I can't reset it because I can't figure out how to access that account.

Sorry I am not sure how to word it differently.  I will just wait and have my son help me with it.  Please forgive this old lady.

  • Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified. Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!

    Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified.
    Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!
    So my options are:
    Create a new Apple ID, use that and lose all the apps I've purhcased with it (a fairly substantial amount)
    Somehow Migrate these purchases over to a new Apple ID
    Apple let me change the primary ID for the account
    Anyone else ran into this before?
    I've tried accessing the mail through a mail application using the correct server information, and trying both the old 6 character password and the one I had to change it too after they updated the security guidelines - neither work.
    Help would be greatly appreciated as I can see more services down the line not working without the address being verified!

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You should not need to verify the old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Need help accessing the router web page.  I have been tol...

    Need help accessing the router web page.  I have been told my router is acting like a switch and the IP address is not in the proper range.  I have tried reseting the router (hold for 30 sec and unplug for 5 mins).  Didn't work.
    thanks

    What router are you using?  Almost all Linksys routers use 192.168.1.1 as the default local IP address, but there is at least one that uses 192.168.16.1 , namely the WTR54GS  (not the WRT54GS).
    You need to try again to reset the router to factory defaults.
    To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
    1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
    2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
    3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
    5) Power down the router.
    6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
    7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
    9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
    10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank (note: a few Linksys routers have a default user name of "admin" (with no quotes)), and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
    If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
    If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
    If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
    If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  • Accessing dot mac email using the terminal

    Hm, Windows has this dang tendency to make simple things hard :-/
    First note that Putty won't help you much, because it allows you to log into remote SSH servers, but I don't think it gives you a "local shell", i.e. replace or extend the normal DOS shell (or whatever it's called nowadays) that comes with Windows.
    That said, I don't know whether you can find Windows ports of some Unix tool that would help you somewhere in the "vicinity" of Cygwin http://www.cygwin.com/ or so ... I don't use Windows enough to know that
    My personal solution to a similar problem is to rent a Linux root server, together with a few friends, which gives us all a platform to perform anything in the internet as long as we have an SSH capable computer where we are.
    If you have an ADSL flatrate you could even leave a computer at home on and SSH into that...

    Hi ricknz,
    I suggest using Header and Footer rows, which are very useful in Numbers.
    Say you start with this table:
    Convert the first row to a header row:
    Convert the last row to a Footer Row:
    Add a sum formula in the Footer Row:
    Then when you add values in the following rows the sum will adjust automatically and the table will expand as you add more data:

    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what the nature of your issue is. If you are talking about changing the Apple ID that your iPhone currently uses for services like the iTunes Store, you may find the following article helpful:

  • Need Help With Spam Proof Email Form

    I am making a new web site using iWeb, .Mac, personal domain and forwarding from my commercial host. I want to make an email contact form that spammers cannot hijack and use to deluge use with spam. I have another web site that was created with Dreamweaver that contains a javascript form that I think that I can modify and use as an html snippet in iWeb.
    Will this work in iWeb (sending a form response to non-.mac email address? The form I am using relies on two small text documents that are stored in the templates folder of my site. The following code refers to the one line of text in the confige document.
    <input type=hidden name="config" value="templates/confige.txt">
    <input type=hidden name="success_url" value="http://myothersite.com">
    <input type=hidden name="email" value="[email protected]">
    Text of confige: mail_template=templates/emailTemplate.txt
    The confige document refers to the following text which are the field names and order.
    Name: <first>
    Store Name: <store>
    Location: <city>
    E-mail: <custemail>
    Platform: <platform>
    Comments:<storeDescription>
    How do I deal with the text documents that are stored in a separate folder in my Dreamweaver site, and can I eliminate these documents and use just the html form in iWeb?

  • I can still access my .mac email via Mail but not in iCloud

    I set up a new iCloud email address and tried to add my old .mac address (via Manage your Apple ID) and get a message saying that "email address is already verified for another Apple ID".
    I can still send and receive emails on my older .mac account via Mail, my iPad and iPhone. I just want to be able to read my .mac email in a browser if I were to lose the other devices.

    Try simply dismissing the popup by hitting cancel and then Get Mail from the account in question.

  • N00b needs help setting up MAC OSX Lion Server for email.

    I recently purchased a Mac Mini running OSX Lion Server and I really don't understand how to set it up as an email server (which was my main goal). Eventually I'd like to set it up to host just about everything else, but I can't seem to figure out how to set up my router and MX records to point to my server in order to host imap mail. I do have a static IP by the way but this N00b is confused... Please help!

    Funny you should ask, because I have been spending the day trying todo the same. I just need to know what to enter into my mx record in network solutions. I can send mail, but I can't receive it just yet. Any help would be great.
