I need two apple mails

Hello, is there any way to get two apple mails on one imac without having to switch profiles? My wife and I both use this iMac and I don't want to just import my mobile me mail into her inbox and check it there, I want my own mail account on the dock. Thanks for the help!!

You can go to Mail Preferences -> Accounts and make separate accounts for each of you there. Click the triangle to the left of "INBOX" and each account inbox will be separated out for you. That won't get each of you your own Dock icon, though. The only way you can have that is to log in to separate user accounts.
Are you sure you don't want to use separate user accounts? My wife and I each have our own and we wouldn't want it any other way.

  • Two Apple Mail imap accounts, but can never include 2nd account in REPLY ALL

    Hi. I have two Apple Mail imap accounts. One for me and one for my boss. The problem is, if I receive an email in which my boss is cc'd and I then click on REPLY ALL, Mail never includes my boss's email address and I have to manually type it in. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thank you.

    Open Mail>Preferences>Accounts, scan down to the entry 'Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)', click on the dropdown and select Edit SMTP Server List and verify that each account has the correct SMTP server set.
    Then close it
    Once you have verified that the servers are set correctly check the box that says 'Use only this server' for each of the accounts.

  • Needing two Apple ID's, but still want stuff to sync on icloud.

    Hello,
         My wife and I both have iphones.  We have been using the icloud with the same Apple ID on both devices for convience when it comes to buying apps and downloading stuff.  Yesterday we purchased an ipad.  I sent her a message in Messages, and it showed up on her phone as herself.  Then when she texted me, it showed up on the ipad and iphone from her as me.  I sent her another message and it came up as me again.  So we thought the problem was fixed.  I texted her from my phone this afternoon, and she said it came to her as herself again.  I figured the solution would be to create an Apple ID for her and then problem solved. 
    Here's the issue......
    We sync all of our contacts and our calendars together on all devices.  We have been doing this for a while and it is of great convinience to have the same address book, and the same calendar so we know everything is together all in the same place.  I am afraid that if we have different Apple ID's that this will no longer be possible.  Has anyone else ever encountered this, and if so, is there a known solution that I could set up so that all three devices were still syncing, but the messages weren't all messed up?

    He needs to use one Apple ID. It would be best to use the new one. He will not "lose" anything connected to the old Apple ID, but if he needs to update anything he will need to do so using the old Apple ID. Otherwise, he can re-purchase everything using the new Apple ID. A call to Apple Support may help with a better solution, but that is the only way to do so.

  • Gmail & Apple Mail glitch--can't download msgs to two computers?

    I have two Mac laptops with two Apple Mail accounts (one is new MacBook Air). When I get a new message in Gmail, it only downloads to whichever computer I open next and does not download to the other. Is there any setting in either Mail or Gmail POP that I can set so that all incoming messages are downloaded to both computers?
    Very much appreciate your help

    Yes - in Mail's Account Preferences, under Advanced, untick "Remove copy from server".
    Having said that, I strongly urge you to use IMAP for GMail access. Not only will this method not delete mail from the server, you're kept in sync (you only need to check a new message once on one computer; it will be marked as read on the other computer) and you can use server-based folders. You can enable IMAP in your GMail webmail settings (the same place you enabled POP).

  • HT5625 How to delete two apple I'd user, my daughter e-mail name always appears when I need to update or down load an app, but my name and information is in the settings

    how to delete two apple I'd users, my daughter email appear when I'm trying to down load an app instead of mines

    I agree with the Thomas, in that I think you have mucked up your settings in the AOL account. Your username should be something like - [email protected] Your password is whatever you use as the password.
    You could try deleting the account and start over again. Here is a link to a "how to set up AOL email " on the iPad. It is  4 or 5 step process and just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the correct fields in the set up. Among my 4 email accounts on my iPad, I have 2 AOL accounts. I have no problems at  all and it was really very easy to set up. There is no reason why AOL email should not work on your iPad.
    To repeat and emphasize - Just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the appropriate fields as I think that's where you are making your mistakes.
    If I had my choice, I would probably chuck the AOL accounts as well, but I have all the spam filters set as high as I can on the server, and it has cut down tremendously on the spam. Unfortunately - we set up AOL accounts at my workplace years ago and I really hesitate to change them now, so I continue on with these, but like I said, they work fine and they were very easy to set up.

  • Two apple ID on one iphone. I need to purchase extra storage for one but it doesn't give me a place to do it.

    im really frustrated.  everything not just this happening to me right now.  I'll try to be as clear as I can be here.  I can't get email or send email with one of two apple I.D.'s connected to my iphone.  The other I.D. I paid for extra storage.  The I.D. that needs more storage is my main email address and my lifeline.  Job offers come to that address, my banking and home security alerts, etc all happen through this one email account.  I can't even get that ID to show on my phone to choose it.
    How can I change things to show me both ID's so I can add storage to the correct one?

  • HT5312 Alright, I have two apple ID's and I deleted the other on a whim a while back. Now whenever I need to update the iphoto or iMovie, it says to sign in into my deleted account, but I don't remember my old account's password either.

    I currently had two apple ID's and I deleted the other on a whim a while back. Now whenever I need to update the iphoto or iMovie, it says to sign in into my deleted account, but I don't remember my old account's password nor the security questions. Any Help Please?

  • I have two Apple ID's associated with my e-mail and Facetime will not verify the one I use.  How can I eliminate the other ID?

    I am running to into a problem using Facetime as I seem to have two Apple ID's attached to my e-mail.  Facetime will not verify my e-mail address because it is associated with the other account.  What can I do???

    Some things are mixed up here, seemingly...
    I seem to have two Apple ID's attached to my e-mail.
    An Apple ID is a valid email address, apparently. How can those be "attached to your email"... what email?
    Facetime will not verify my e-mail address because it is associated with the other account.
    This doesn't make sense. You can register multiple, even non-Apple-ID, email addresses and their aliases with FaceTime.
    So, maybe you can explain your problem better - what you want and the steps you've taken and what you have so far. If something doesn't work, please tell the exact error message, too.

  • I have two apple accounts and need to delete one, I have two apple accounts and need to delete one

    I have two apple accounts, one on my iphone and the other ipad & laptop.  I need to delete the iphone account and use only the other.  How do I delete without losing my data.

    Greetings sweetfisunshine,
    Sorry; I've been away for a day or two so could not respond.  I think the last post from ashlie covers your question.    I don't use an iPhone so I know only basics about it.  As I see that reply, you log in with the ID you dont want, then log out.   Then log in with the second ID you do want and log out.   That should leave you with the second ID as your ID and by never using the other one again the old ID will in effect go away.  
    Thank you for the star.   Happy New Year,

  • I have two apple accounts, but can only access one. I did all the steps to recover the older account's password but nothing worked. I need to access the older account to update apps. Also would there be a way to just combine both accounts?

    I have two apple accounts, but can only access one. I did all the steps to recover the older account's password but nothing worked. I need to access the older account to update apps. Also would there be a way to just combine both accounts?

    Were you able to reset the account's password ? If not then how did you try to get it reset e.g. http://iforgot.apple.com (which would have sent it to the rescue email address if you have one on that account) ? You can also try contacting iTunes Support in your country to get it reset : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    And no, accounts can't be merged nor content transferred between accounts.

  • I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
    I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
    It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple.

    How do I add a desktop link to additional email accounts?  I have one email account as my safari home page because it has trouble with apple mail, but I want a one-click link on my desktop that takes me to two other email accounts.

    Can you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?

  • I am using apple mail on my Mac and have two different accounts set up, one personal and one business. when i send mail a copy of the message is being saved into my business account swell.

    Both accounts are Imap but the business one is Gmail and the persoanl one is 1and1. when i compose new mail in my personal account I make sure it says its going from my 1and1 account but for some reason the message appears in both sent boxes.
    I need to fix this as I dont want other people using the business account seeing my personal sent emails!
    This has only just started in last couple of days when I did something on accounts but cant think what that would have been.
    hope someone can help.

    I'd like to have one Apple Mail application for my one very important email account while the rest can stay on a different Apple Mail app.
    Consider using Thunderbird for the "rest."
