iCloud.com is the most simple email box ; so, how i can create a adress, without a mac with lion, without iPhone, and without a PC.... ?

You need a computer to create the account, but once created, you don't need any device to use it, except of course a computer with a browser to view emails.

Changing icloud email adress in icloud profile

Hi, I know there is much on this subject on this forum but i can't find an answer to this specifically.
I want to keep my original iCloud profile
Originally I created an iCloud email adress and associated it with my iCloud account as an Alternative Email Adress
Then realised my full name was available as an email address in iCloud so I wanted that email instead
I tried to create the availble email address as a secondary address in my primary iCloud account but could't find a way.
Then I simpy created a new iCloud profile creating the preferred new email address e.g. [email protected]
The new iCloud profile is empty of course, as my real profile is another account
So I figure I can merge the iCLoud profiles - is there a way?
Or I could simply associate the new address as an Alternate Email Address with my primary iCloud account
And here's the problem with suggestion in point 8!
As you can see below the new email address, which I own, is seen as someone else's email address.
How can I associate this new email address [email protected] with my primary icloud account???

I'm afraid you've boxed yourself into a corner by creating a new iCloud account with the address you wanted. That address is now permanently tied as the main address in the new account and there is nothing you can do to change it. You could have created an alias using that address in the older account, as suggested above, but now that option isn't available to you.
What you can do is to move over to using the new iCloud account, manually transferring your data to it. If you are also using the original address as the login for iTunes you will have to stick with that as purchases can't be moved from one account to another, but there's no problem about having different logins for iCloud and iTunes.

HT201342 I'd like to change my iCloud email address or create a new one, how do I do this?

I'd like to change my iCloud email address or create a new one, how do I do this? I'm starting a new business and I've not really used my iCloud email address, I'd like to change the name to the business name. Can I do this? If so, how?

You can't change an iCloud email address. You can create an alias address to use that will receive email in your current iCloud inbox, but it will still be an @icloud.com address. If you want to do this, this article explains how to create an alias: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622. Note: once you create an alias address, you can't use it to create a new iCloud account, move it to another account, of reactivate it should you ever delete it.
You should also be aware that iCloud is designed for personal rather than business use, and as such, there are limits place on iCloud email accounts as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4863.

I thought there ought to be way to add buttons from the Encore library, but I don't think we found one.
Best case: add menu from the library with buttons like what you want. Change background etc.
I like working that way rather than adding things within Encore.
Worst case: add a menu with the buttons you want; "edit in photoshop" and also "edit in photoshop" your menu; copy paste to your menu.
You can also directly open library menus; add buttons etc from the encore library folders. I would make a copy of them first. Encore imports a menu from the library to your project; it is never working on its master copy.

Early iMac (not Lion eligible), does my mobile me email address cease to work after June, 2012? Can one create an iCloud email address?

Cannot update to Lion on this early intel iMac. Now I find out I cannot move mail, contacts to iCloud. My question is, will my mobile me email address continue to work after June, 2012? Can one create an iCloud email address to use with iPhone and iPad?

If you own a iOS5 idevice like a ipod touch you are eligible to use icloud. This will preserve your current Email and Adress Book data after MobileMe dies next year.
Else you would need to purchase a Lion capable Mac or set up a Vista/Win7 PC with office2007/10 to use icloud.

IPad2 and a new MacBook running Lion, Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my Hotmail Id for my Apple Id and use it for iTunes, iCloud

I have an iPad2 and a new MacBook running Mountain Lion. Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my current Hotmail Id for my Apple Id for iTunes, iCloud.
Note, I will use both Hotmail and iCloud eMail.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

You cannot do that. The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address. The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well). You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

I have an iCloud email address on my iMac. How can I create an icloud email address for my wife on the same computer?

If all you want is an additional email address you can create up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account.
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
More information on aliases here:

If you want to keep her email separate from yours she will need to create a new Apple ID, and use it to create a new iCloud account either on a separate computer or on a separate User Account on your Mac.

Which port number should be entered to create an icloud email account?

You do not have to use any port number. Just go to System Preferences on your Mac and click on iCloud (OS X 10.7.5 and later).

HT2623 I would like to change my iCloud email address.

I would like to change my iCloud email address but don't know how.

You can't change it. To get a different address you have two options:
1) Setup a whole new iCloud account under a different AppleID
2) Setup an email alias within your existing account: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

How to create multiple iCloud email addresses?

How do I create multiple icloud email addresses with out creating multiple Apple IDs?

Will I still recieve emails from my old email account after creating an iCloud email account on my devices?

After creating an iCloud email will I still recieve emails from my old email account account on my devices?

If the old email account is a non-iCloud email account, then yes. You will continue to receive email from your old account as long as it is still set up in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.
However, if the old email account is an iCloud email account, you will have to add it back on your devices in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then sign in with your old iCloud account IC, in order to continue to receive it on your devices. If you do this, the old email will be fetch only, not push.

HT5538 How do I check to see if I created an icloud email address?

How do I check to see if I created an icloud email address?

Are you logged into your iCloud with the AppleID you used to create the iCloud address?
If so, check the Mail checkbox in iCloud System Preferences and then go to Mail and look at Accounts Preferences. Does the email account show up in the iCloud account?

When I create an iCloud email account, does this change my header?

When I create an iCloud email account, does this mean that my header changes everytime I send an e-mail? I have always used AOL and that is my normal email address but I've sent several emails to people who don't seem to be getting them(or, perhaps, their spam filters are putting them in the "junk box" and when they look for my aol header, they are'nt seeing it) I've been wondering if that could be my problem?

If you are using iCloud email it would be sent from your @icloud.com (@mac.com or @me.com) email address, not your AOL address, and the headers would reflect this. If you want to send from your AOL account you would need to select that as your default account in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Mail section).

Since I created an iCloud email account, nothing on my ipad2 syncs with iCloud on my PC and all of my prior information has disappeared from my gmail, notes, calendar, etc. Any ideas?

Why is it that since I created an iCloud email account (my default email client is gmail), nothing on my iPad2 syncs with iCloud on my PC? Also, all prior content in Notes, Contacts, Mail, Calendar, etc. has disappeared.

Okay, I see from the control panel for iCloud in Explorer that now I have to use Outlook as my mail client for Calendar, Mail and Notes. Why? Gmail is my client and everything used to work fine until I had to get that @icloud.com account.
Also, I see I have to use Explorer as my browser if I want to sync Bookmarks. What's wrong with Firefox?
Outlook is the only supported Mail/Contacts and Calendars client on a PC.
And once more, Gmail has no connection with iCloud, you can continu using Gmail on the web or in Mail
Why not say what you expect to happen and I'll tell you if it will.

I woud'like to create an iCloud email adress, just to use it online, without iPhone, mac or PC link to it, is it possible ?
