My iCloud email seems to link to both my account and someone else's. Has anyone else had this?

I wanted to start using my icloud email but when i opened it I had the email from apple saying @icloud was reserved for me and another email which from what I can see was sent to someone elses email account ending in @me.com.
Drove myself mad with the apple support pages as they dont just let you submit an issues unless its one thats covered in the support forms so I have to post it here instead. Has anyone else had this happen?
It could be that I have been bcc'd into the email but its not a source I know and I can only see a "to" address and no evidence that I have been cc'd or bcc'd.
Please Help Apple

When you are Bccd there is never any access to the Bcc list - that's the point of it (so that for example you can run a mailing list without everyone seeing everyone else's addresses) - so you won't see anthing of this sort other than your address showing up in the long header (command-shift-H to view), e.g.:

  • HT4914 I have several songs in my ITunes library that show as ineligible to be uploaded to ICloud, even though most of them were purchased through the ITunes Store. Has anyone else experienced this and figured out why?

    I have several songs in my ITunes library that show as ineligible to be uploaded to ICloud via Match, even though most of them were purchased through the ITunes Store. Has anyone else experienced this and figured out why?

    I had the exact same issue!! Seriously p*ssed me off when I checked out my ITunes purchased items (via my computer) and noticed that most of the additional tracks listed on my IPhone playlist was listed there too. However, I never authorized any purchases!!  (I have actually written Apple Support asking for a full refund of all tracks listed on my purchased list)
    Be careful when you swipe your finger to the left/right on those "additional" tracks on your IPhone playlist... I'm pretty sure that the cloud symbol is an option to download or automatically buy those tracks.
    Solution for the problem:
    1 - go to your IPhone settings
    2 - choose "iTunes & App Store"
    3 - go to "Show All" & "Music"
    4 - turn off "Music" by moving the bar to the left (it should be a white color once you turn it off)
    Should solve your problem :~)

  • Has anyone else received an email claiming to be a beta to try out of what is termed "iWorks" through iCould?

    Today I received an email claiming to be from Apple.  Below are the contents of the email.  It basically claimed to be offering me a chance to test out a beta version of what it called iWorks on the iCloud.  I just needed to sign in to test it out.  Has anyone else received anything similar?  Has anyone been able to verify its contents?  Or is it a scam?  It allegedly was sent by email address of "[email protected]"  Help?
    Thanks,

    Dear Christina,
    We’ll soon be introducing a new and exciting feature to iCloud. It’s called iWork for iCloud and it’s a suite of apps — Pages, Numbers, and Keynote — that make it easy for anyone with an iCloud account to create and edit great-looking documents, spreadsheets, and presentations right on the web.
    We’d like to invite you to be one of the first to try it, so we’re giving you early access to the iWork for iCloud beta. All you have to do is sign in to iCloud on a Mac or a PC using the current version of Safari, Chrome, or Internet Explorer. Then just click on Pages, Numbers, or Keynote and you’re off.
    We’re really proud of these apps and we’d appreciate your help in making them as great as they can possibly be. So we’d love to hear your feedback as you use them.
    Sign in to iCloud.com to get started with iWork for iCloud today.
    Sincerely,
    The iWork Team

    Has it been verified with Apple?  Because I just called Apple care, and the technician I spoke to knew nothing about it.  He said he thought it was a scam and recommended I post it here.
    Confused, anyone?  Lol.

  • My email recently changed and so I updated my Apple ID to reflect my new email, but my Icloud account still shows the old email as the username on both my Iphone and Ipad and for the life of me I can't figure out how to change or delete it.

    My email recently changed and so I updated my Apple ID to reflect my new email, but my Icloud account still shows the old email as the username on both my Iphone and Ipad and for the life of me I can't figure out how to change or delete it.  My password doesn't work with the old email address.  When I look for my old email address in the Apple ID support area it says that the ID doesn't exist.  Help!!!

    You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials.  This deletes the account and your synced data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

  • Has anyone else received a phishing, "Urgent Alert From Apple Support"? It came to my actual iCloud email address.

    The message is very clearly bogus, full of errors of every kind, right from the start: "Dear Apple Custumer,"
    The fact that it came to my own iCloud address worries me since usually such schemes are to a broad group, like "[email protected]"
    I have forwarded the email, with Long Headers, to the fraud-combating websites. Can't find any hint on apple.com/support as to where at Apple itself to direct it.

    Re: Has anyone else received a phishing, "Urgent Alert From Apple Support"? It came to my actual iCloud email address.
    YES today in the UK, the email text is as below, together with several Links to "Apple" sites and an Apple logo and European support address.
    Fairly crude but could fool naive users.
    Any one know how to get to the addresses behind the links without clicking them?  Just copying and pasting as plain text doesn't seem to work. Any other way just copies the Hyperlink.
    Scam Text in square brackets:

  • I'm trying to recover my security questions, but my alternate email address on the link does not match the one I have put in my Apple ID, on the link it is has an old one that no longer exists. Has anyone else been through this or knows how to help m

    I've been trying to remember my security questions for ages, and I can't seem to remember them. On my Apple ID I have changed my alternate email address because the previous one was deleted, but when I go on the "Password and Security" page on my Apple ID and there is a link saying "Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to ************@*******.com" but it is giving me my old email that does not match my current one on my Apple ID and no longer exists. I have been trying for very long to recover my security questions' answers, but Apple is not coping with me.
    Has anyone been through this or knows how to help me?
    Thank you.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

    Our CEO has an iPhone and an iPad. Everytime he is at the Baltimore Washington Airport (BWI) he is unable to send or recieve email over 4G or wifi. Everything else seems to work just fine over wifi or 4G LTE. Has anyone ever seen anything similar? is this malware?
    Both devices are on Verizons 4G LTE network. Both devices do have some of the same APPS installed. Can this be a case of him connecting to a rogue wifi network of a hacker that may have installed malicious code on his devices when he connected? That would explain why only his devices have the same exact issue only at BWI airport.

    Something similar I've experienced. I was once having to use a AT&T hotspot and the iPad simply refused to access my mail via the mail app. But if I used safari I could get it.  So the internet was working, but my supposition is that something with the hotspot's firewall messes with mail exchange.
    next time your boss is at BWI, do you guys have a web interface? (for example if I wanted to access my work mail I could get them to set it up via the mail app and exchange, or I could go to a certain web address and access my mail that way via safari)
    He could try using safari and the web interface if you have it.
    If it's something in the hotspot's firewall I doubt it's anything that can be changed.

    My iPad, Macbook and Apple TV are all set up with the same iCloud email address.  I bought the iPhone 6 and accidentally set the iCloud up with a different email.  My phone will not let me change the email address to be the same as my other devices, it tells me that email is already being used.

    Yes it will, just sign out, then sign back in with the correct address.

  • TS4020 Can I change my iCloud email address name without creating a new account?

    CCan I change my iCloud email address name without creating a new account?

    Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the address (short of creating an entirely new account).
    However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

    Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    You have to look at the email protocol being used.  the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
    Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
    Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider.

    It's unlikely that hackers are the problem, but there's no way of knowing for sure. In the meantime, you've done exactly the right thing: create a new Apple ID (or change the password on your old ID.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Posting your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
    If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • Has anyone else been required to change their iTunes account to an email but then can't buy or upgrade apps, etc.under their original account?

    Has anyone else tried to ungrade their iPhone or iPad and been required to change their apple ID to an email then not been able to upgrade apps under the old ID. how did you get Apple to fix it?

    Yes.  My ordeal started with the pre-order debacle when they cancelled my pre-order for no reason.  I got the email notification and called the number they gave in the cancellation notice.  I was told that it was a glitch in the system and that my order was not cancelled.  She had to fill out some paperwork to help them gather data on who was getting these erroneous notifications but that my place in line was not impacted - still guaranteed to arrive on release day.  I explained how important this was since it was my 15 year old son's big birthday present.  No problem.  On release day, I checked my online account and it still showed that the order had been cancelled.  I called in just to make sure I was still on for delivery and was told that my order had been cancelled and there was nothing that could be done about it.  The rep told me that if I wanted one that day, I'd have to go stand in line at the Apple or Verizon store like everyone else.  There was no offer to help me jump in the line whatsoever.  As you can imagine, I'm really ****** now that I hear there was, in fact, a way I could have been helped.  I used to love Verizon.  I, too, have been a long time customer.  It seems they have been taking customer service notes from the likes of Comcast and Time Warner.  I have completely lost faith in their ability to take care of me as a customer.  Like you, I am evaluating options to leave this sinking ship.
