Make sub account the main account

I have two BT mail accounts.
I can access the main account via Thunderbird, but cannot get Thunderbird to recognise my sub account (I assume that sub accounts are not accessible via Thunderbird).
It would suit my usage if I could change my sub account to be my main account so that I could work with it in Thunderbird.
Any help, please.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thunderbird does work with sub-accounts. Just remember to rename the account name within Thunderbird, if you have more than one BT Internet accounts added.
That makes sure that the second one you add, does not have the same name as the first.

  • I want to download the new software on my ipod touch on a different computer to what i normally use, but it keeps telling me i will loose all my downloads. Is it possible to make this computer the main computer to sync my ipod?

    I want to download the new software on my ipod touch, on a different computer to what i usually sync my ipod to, and it keeps telling me i will lose all my downloads. i it possible to download the update on this computre, without deleting my information, and making this computer the main computer to sync my ipod to?

    A manual backup will help in your situation.
    Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your iPod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
    Apps can be downloaded again for free, in some countries music as well: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • How to make firefox remember the main web address of each website instead of it remembering URLs history?

    Whenever you visit a website such as youtube.com and have searched for videos on the site, firefox remembers all these URLs the next time round you attempt to type youtube.com into the address bar. I find it frustrating because all I want to see is a neat list of websites beginning with the letter 'y' when I begin typing 'youtube' such as youtube.com or yahoo.com, etc. I don't want to see everything else otherwise it just looks messy - you end up having to click on one of the URLs to get to the site again or you end up retyping the main address out yourself (some main web addresses are long!).
    Is there an option in firefox where you can have it only remember the main web address of the sites you have visited instead of all the URLs visited on those sites? I'm not talking about deleting the entire history, just for the address bar to remember a simple list of sites such as google.co.uk, yahoo.com, youtube.com, outlook.com, etc.
    If something like this doesn't exist then I wish someone would give us the option to do that.

    Pick a page you like for that site, then bookmark it. In the future,
    just select the bookmark.

  • Extract Data in sub report to main report

    Post Author: Karl1975
    CA Forum: Formula
    Hi I have written both a main and sub report in V10 that shows grouped data by Name with a total count on each Name:-
    EG:-
    Name                               Numbers
    Tim Smith                         10
    John Smith                        15
    I need to extract the data from the sub report that matches each of the Name into the Main report.  So I can calculate a ratio.
    EG
    Name                               Numbers              (Numbers from Sub Report)
    Tim Smith                         10                       10
    John Smith                        15                       12
    Is this possible?
    Many thanks.

    you can use shared variables to pass the data from the sub to the main. in the knowledge base you can find instructions on creating these.
    make sure you do not surpress the value in the sub or it wont pass through. place the variable in the main below the sub report.

  • Making my 2nd BT line the main phone line

    Hi
    I've been trying to find a solution for this with no luck. Spoken to several BT engineers (all based abroad!) and no one seems to understand the issue, let alone help. A pointer in the right direction would be hugely appreciated!
    We have 2 lines coming into the flat - Let's call them Line 1 and Line 2. Line 1 is the main line around the house. If you plug any basic phone into a socket in any room, you get Line 1.
    We have a Panasonic PBX system with both Line 1 and Line 2 going into it. Plug in a programmed Panasonic phone into any socket, and you get both line 1 and 2 available from the phone's selection menu.
    We are dropping Line 1 and want to make Line 2 the main line in the house (Line 1 is hardly used anymore). We want to be able to plug a basic phone into any socket and get Line 2 by default. We also want to remove the PBX, although this is less of a priority. Main thing is to make Line 2 the default standard house line, and change our phones to basic standard phones.
    I must be asking the wrong questions as I can’t find anyone than can help. Is this something BT can do? Is it the company that set up the PBX system (Spitfire I believe)?. Is it something I can do (I’m not hugely technical, but can follow basic steps)? What do I need to ask for, and to whom? 
    We do have a Cable & Wireless box near the PBX with two ethernet style cables coming out of them. They are labelled with the actual phone numbers of Line 1 and Line 2. I tried swapping those round, but it made no difference. Line 1 was still the main line. I suspect this is something compeltely unelated. 
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Cheers

  • How to define the main web server application

    Hello!!
    I'm currently developing a webapp called 'web01'. When I access it on the webserver I access it as "http://localhost:8000/web01" , and that's ok!
    What should I do to make my app the main (default) server's webapp, so I could access it just with "http://localhost:8000 " .
    Where do I configure it?
    Thanks in advance,

    ...actually you don't have to configure anything (although you may want to).
    If you simply provide an entry page named "index.jsp" in the "appBase" or "document root" defined by your server, it will be the default page. I use Tomcat, and by providing a file called index.jsp in the right directory, that is what gets delivered when they don't call for anything else.
    Take a look in the Tomcat "server.xml" file and see if you can see the parameter that configures the default filename. Then use that in the server's document root directory and you're good to go!

  • How do I make it so that the one computer that has the main itunes account on it be used on other computers, when it comes to backing up phones and not deleting data off of phone that isnt on that computer itunes becasse its all on the one main computer

    how do I make it so that the one computer that has the main itunes account on it be used on other computers, when it comes to backing up phones and not deleting data off of phone that isnt on that computer itunes becasse its all on the one main computer. Baiscally the problem is that one comuter and one account has always been sued for eey persons itunes. Now if we want to be able to backup and use itunes on our own computers fro our iphones and such, how will all he data that is on our phones not be deleted once its plugged into a new computer? Also, is theere a way to get all the stuff on thw current itunes onto each computer, via differtn account name?

    option discovered in preferences. Really this and any feature that moves deletes or edits a users data should as far as possible be OFF BY DEFAULT. It shouldn't by default and without the users specific say do this dangerous and unnecessary thing without even letting the user know what it's doing!!! And then cause me a few hours (as i'm new to mac) searching for the option so as to switch it off. If i hadn't noticed the status cage declaring that it was copying files then i might never have twigged that this insane thing was occurring. And if i hadn't of noticed i would have been left maintaining the contents of the folder i copied the files to, the folder which as far as i was informed and so believed was also the location of the music files i was playing. How does Apple justify this 'genius' piece of software non-design? Surely it will hurt no one if this was off by default for new users - overall at least i dare say it would cause a lot less distress in the future for the unsuspecting public at large. Thanks for the support.

  • Make logging in easier for Sub-Accounts on this computer WON'T WORK!

    Make logging in easier for Sub-Accounts on this computer - when I click on this tab in the main email account it does nothing. It used to allow me to log into all my accounts easier by listing all email address's at log in, but for months I've had to type in each email address whenever switching emails. Can anyone help with this issue? Its on my verizon yahoo account.
    Thanks.

    Hey dpg123, it sounds like someone accidentally click on save password when signing in.  You can try to reverse the issue by clicking onto Internet Option from the Control Panel.  On the General Tab under Browsering History click on the Delete button and you have to delete Temporary Internet Files, Cookies and Passwords on that pc.

  • I think I screwed up my migration.  I turned off the sub-accounts on my Mobile Me Family Pack before I hit the button to move my account.  Now it seems I have delete all of my family's email accounts.  Can they be re-activated/retrieved?

    I think I screwed up my migration.  I turned off the sub-accounts on my Mobile Me Family Pack before I hit the button to move my account.  Now it seems I have deleted all of my family's email accounts.  Can they be re-activated/retrieved?  The instructions at that point were vague to non-existent.

    I'm tryin to move my account to iCloud too and I have sub accounts. I deleted a couple of the sub accounts and found that one of them (didn't try the other one) couldn't  login anymore. I haven't moved to iCloud yet and I was able to re-establish the sub account. I had another go at moving to iCloud and noticed that I may not need to delete the sub accounts, it just warns that I won't be able to add or delete them after moving to iCloud. Maybe that is the way to go. Move the main account to iCloud without deleting the sub accounts?? Maybe this will leave the sub account owners able to move in their own time.
    I don't know if you can fix what you have done if you have already moved to iCloud with your main account. Might be time for you visit the local Genius Bar or call Apple support.
    I may try a visit to my local Genius Bar over the weekend if I can make an appointment ;-)

  • How do I change the main iCloud account on my iPad?

    I need to change the main iCloud account on my iPad. I'm merging family MobileMe accounts' contacts, and need to set up multiple devices with the main iCloud family account so we will all share photos, contacts, calendars, etc, but have separate email via personal subaccounts. Trouble is I entered a sub account as the main account on one of the iPads and I can't find a way to change it.

    I have the same question for a slightly different reason.
    I just got an iPhone6 and set it up from an iPhone4 backup. I never really used that phone for iCloud, When iCloud first launched, I used an old earthlink email but I've since updated to a gmail address on my account.and use iCloud a lot on my iPad and laptop. But the new phone wants me to log in under the old earthlink account. I don't have that password and attempts to reset it have not worked. How can I switch the log in address so I can use the correct working address?

  • Our family has 1 Apple id. My sons received many itunes gift cards. Can I set up sub-accounts under my id? If I create new ids, will they lose access to the content purchased under wmy id?

    Our family has 1 Apple id with 2 itouches, 1 ipad and 1 iphone.  My sons received several itunes gift cards. Can I set up sub-accounts under my id and deposit their gift cards into them (like a bank account)? If I can't, it seems that I will have to keep track of each of their purchases until they reach the limit of their gift cards, before they go over.  This makes no sense.  If I have to create new ids, will they lose access to all the content purchased under my id?

    - You can't create subaccounts.
    - You can create new account(s). The media on the iPod is still usable. It does create more work when updating apps since yo have to sign into the account that purchased them to update them. If you have apps purchased from more than one account that need update you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased with one account.
    - To change accounts for purchasing go to Settings> Store (or Settings.iTunes and App store depending upon the iOS) and sign out and sign in with different account.

  • I have several Outlook accounts and want to switch between them but Firefox defaults to the main one and won't let me access the others.

    Outlook now makes me sign out and sign back in to each of my email accounts. When I try to sign back in, it defaults to the main account and won't let me type in the other email addresses. This only happens in Firefox, both Google and IE leave the email address blank and let me type in the one I want to access. I'd rather use Firefox, but it doesn't let me type in a different email address. Can I fix this?

  • I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
    So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
    Or get/setup IMAP accounts.
