As long as you have a working version, are all three interchangeable when logging into itunes?

Hi powerbook1701,
Take a look at the article below, it provides details about how someone could have ended up with one of the email addresses as an AppleID and the interchangability.
iCloud: About your @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2623
iCloud: About your @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses
Depending on when you created your iCloud account, your iCloud email addresses and aliases may end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com domains. Learn how these email addresses are granted.
Review these scenarios to see which one applies to you:
If you created an iCloud account on or after September 19, 2012, your email address ends with @icloud.com. Learn more about @icloud.com mail addresses.
If you created an iCloud account before September 19, 2012, or moved to iCloud with an active MobileMe account before August 1, 2012, you have both @me.com and @icloud.com email addresses.
If you had a working @mac.com email address as of July 9, 2008, kept your MobileMe account active, and moved to iCloud before August 1, 2012, you can use @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses with your iCloud account.
In each case, you can sign in to iCloud with either your @icloud.com email address or the Apple ID that you use with your iCloud account.If you created one or more email aliases for your account, be aware of the following:
You can change or delete an email alias, but if you delete an @mac.com or @me.com email alias, you can't add it back to your iCloud account.
You can't sign in to iCloud.com with an email alias. Sign in with your @icloud.com email address or the Apple ID that you use with your iCloud account.

  • Mail not syncing - different between Mac, iPhone and Cloud

    Thought I had moved to the Cloud, but having major issues having all of my mail be the same in all 3 places - Macbook, iPhone and Cloud website.  Things I have sent from my Mac do not even show being on there, and certainly not in phone, but are on Cloud. What is the best way to check that I have this set up correctly, so I can have access to mail where ever I go, for you know, work stuff.
    Mac is running Lion 10.7.2, and iPhone is updated to OS5.
    Thanks for the help.

    Unfortunately from one point of view, I have only had one issue with iCloud which related to corrupt iWork documents, so I'm not able to draw on personal experience at solving issues like yours, I'm just drawing on other users experiences here. Out of interest did you create a brand new iCloud account or migrate from a mm account.

  • Information about fwdservice dot com?

    Note that urls in this post are deliberately obfuscated.
    Earlier today I tried to access www <dot> casponline <dot> org which is supposed to be the site of the California Association of School Psychologists. When I had trouble viewing content, I enabled javascript for two sites the page seemed to need: cdn <dot> rooktemplate <dot> com and fwdservice <dot> com. This didn't seem to help much. I went from blank content to perpetual loading.
    As far as I can tell fwdservice is associated with Windows malware which redirects attempts to access various webpages to fwdservice's site. I am guessing this simply fails on Linux but does anybody know anything more about this? The information about Windows is what I gleaned from a web search but I am not sure how reliable it is or if there is more to this. Because I was on campus at the time, the university's rule set typically blocks malware sites. (E.g. a link which would take me somewhere at home will be blocked on campus.) Obviously that's only a certain proportion of what's out there, however, so it doesn't show the information isn't reliable.
    I am pretty sure that casponline should be a legitimate site or used to be one as I've found links to it from enough kosher-looking pages for it to seem unlikely they are all fake. (And they are always pages about psychological research etc.)

    OK. If I ping casponline.org, I get the same ip (68.171.213.42). If I load that ip in my browser and allow it to load the script, it all looks fine. But if I load www.casponline.org, I get nothing and the source code for the page is completely different.

    I get the same result at home as on campus (but I'm on the same machine). So how would my DNS get poisoned and can I unpoison it?
    Though if DNS was poisoned, wouldn't it affect ping as well?
    EDIT: I just sshed into a machine at work (which I am about to lose, but still for today...) and found that ping www.casponline.com uses an ip address of 107.20.206.69. So could that have been the address I got given earlier when using my laptop on campus? Now I'm home so I get the right result from ping. But why would firefox still use the same ip as earlier? I tried removing the cache but it didn't make any difference. Is there something further I need to do? (And is this likely to indicate a more serious problem?)
    The machine I sshed to is running Fedora 19 so it is definitely not likely to be an Arch-specific screw-up on my part, if you see what I mean.

  • Can I access both platforms, window and mac with one cloud account

    can I access both platforms, window and mac with one cloud account

    Yes.
    One Cloud membership = 2 software activations: Win/Win or Mac/Mac or Win/Mac.

    "Are there any unique benefits that come with my paid membership?
    Yes, as a member of Creative Cloud, you get many benefits that you do not get when you purchase a traditional shrinkwrapped product:
    Access to both the Mac OS and Windows® versions of the desktop applications and the ability to install them on your primary computer and one backup computer.

  • Is there a way that iTunes can act as a Radio Alarm Clock? I have found the radio station I enjoy listening to in the iTunes Radio List. Is there anyway iTunes (and my Mac) can be set to come-on and start playing that Radio Station from Sleep mode at spec

    Is there a way that iTunes can act as a Radio Alarm Clock?
    I have found the radio station I enjoy listening to in the iTunes Radio List. Is there anyway iTunes (and my Mac) can be set to come-on from Sleep mode and start playing that Radio Station at specific times of the day?
    Any App or plug-in that does that?
    Many thanks
    Kevin

    Turning your Mac into a clock radio.
    1.  In iTunes create a playlist that contains just the radio station you want to wake up to.
    2.  Export the playlist (as .m3u works well).  Get Info on your playlist file and look at the Open With entry to make sure it points to iTunes, VLC or some other app that will stream your station.
    3.  In iCal create an event entry at the time you want to wake up.
    4.  Right (or Control) click on your wakeup event and select Get Info.
    5.  For "alarm" select Open File.
    6.  Now under Open File there will be a place to add the file to open.  It will probably be some default entry (like iCal).  Click on it will allow you to select "other."  Then use the file dialog to select your playlist file.
    Your Mac will wake you up at the appointed time.  You don't need to keep iCal running.  If you want to put you Mac to sleep for the night then there is one more thing you need to do.  Open System Preferences to Energy Saver and click on the Schedule button.  Check Start up or wake and set the wake up time to slightly before your iCal alarm time.

  • Hi i have the same apple id for my iPad and my mac. my iPhone has a different one. My i cloud on my mac seems to be the iCloud on my iPad, if that makes sense so its not sending my photos from my mac to the cloud. how do i change it to upload mac?

    hi i have the same apple id for my iPad and my mac. my iPhone has a different one. My i cloud on my mac seems to be the iCloud on my iPad, if that makes sense so its not sending my photos from my mac to the cloud. how do i change it to upload mac pictures instead? thanks

    Did you go into Settings > Store and then tap your old ID, sign out and then enter your new ID?

  • HT1918 My name is Paul Augsburger I have had several issues with my account and they are now fixed with one exception,  I have two Apple ID accounts, and I would like to combine them. Please contact me at pra1949 (at) me (dot) com for further information.

    Please contact me at pra1949 (at) me (dot) com for any further contact I don not monitor the suelefriends (at) gmail (dot) com email.
    I have had several iisues with my Apple ID accounts and spent many hours at the APPLE store in Richmond Va. getting them fixed. The technician was wonderful, patient and very knowlegeable, however he was not able to complete the task and said I needed to contact Apple support for the final step. During the process of fixing things I ended up with two APPLE ID accounts. my main accout is suelefriends (at) gmail (dot) com and the second account is "pra1949 (at) me (dot) com" I have most of my apps tied to the main account with only a few to the pra1949 account. I also have $25 worth of credit on the pra1949 account. Because of the two accounts it still makes updating apps very confusing and very cumbersome. I would like to have the two accounts merged so I end up with one account with all the money and APPS tied to it, that way I only need one password to update. I hope this is possible.

    <E-mails Edited by Host>

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
    In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.

  • After upgrading to mavericks my mac shut off and won't come back on

    I upgraded to Mavericks and my 2013 macbook pro shut off and won't come back on.  When I push the start button I can hear the chime and then my sleep light blinks really fast and then shuts off completely.  All I get is a white screen with the loading circle just going around and around.  I tried resetting the pram but that didn't work.  Any ideas?

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Alternatively, see:
    Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Choose the version you have installed now:
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X

    Run the Apple hardware test to see what it tells you. Run the extended test when prompted, which can take awhile.
