FWIW I used to be with Pipex many years ago (>8) but I have retained the associated e-mail address which I still use occasionally (ie when BT email is not working so perhaps a bit more than occasionally) and do not pay. I seem to recall, again from a few years ago, that ISPs will keep an email address alive as long as it is in use - I do not know the rules applied to "still in use" but my guess is that it is a purely machine monitored function.

    Hi eddinchina,
    You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
    As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
    You may use the same email address with both accounts.

    You have now exceeded your iCloud storage, including an additional amount provided to allow you to continue receiving email. As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage. I have 20GB remaining.  WHat is the issue here?

    Today I received the same message but have 4.6gb available from a total of 5.0gb. I also received the same message when i first set up my icloud account and icloud was virtually empty. Unfortunately the only way i can see to contact apple is to pay for a telephone call. If anyone knows what is going on i would appreciate knowing.

  • HT5312 Whose email address do you use for your rescue email?

    Whose email address do you use for your rescue email?

    My own.
    That is the point of the rescue e-mail

  • HT5312 What if the rescue email isn't a real email address and you have no way to remember your answers to your security questions then what do I do

    Can anyone help

    You will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • I forgot my security question answers. when i tell them to reset it, it sends an email, but not to my email address. can you send it to my primary email?

    topic ^^

    Nobody on these boards can. If you can't get into that email address, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • SEND from my email INBOX  to  another email address ~ Thank you,  Mika

    I would like to acquire the ADOBE that will allow me to SEND messages and images from my email INBOX to other email addresses.....can you provide me with your best recommendation with respect to the above purpose ?

    Adobe doesn't make software that does that. You can use Outlook, or Mozilla
    Thunderbird, or something of that sort for that.

  • HT2736 What email address do you have to send a gift to

    If I want to gift my grandson a game app what email has it got to go to his apple account or his general email ie gmail.com

    No.  You can share the same Apple/iTunes ID and account.  However, oon one device you migh want to add another calling/messaging email address for FaceTime and Messages so you can contact one another with those apps.  To do that go to Settings>Facetime (or Messages) and add another email address and delete the other one.

  • Comcast fails to provide an easy to access email address where you can submit issues

    Cable boxes keep freezing up when surfing, have to unplug to reset, delay in response to entries cause wrong entires i.e. enterin 212 but the two does not show so you press it again and again next thing you know you have 222212 instead of 212. COMCAST does not provide an email address for its customers to file complaints because they do not want to get them...Had to try multiple account names before I found one that was not taken... 

    If you look around the forum, you will find a email address to send to.  Also on the forum, you can post your issue and someone from Comcast will followup, you can do a online chat if you don't want to call.  
    Pretty much if you email, they will just call you back anyway so they can confirm your identity, since it's easy to spoof someone's identify to get into your Comcast account and make changes.  Identify theft runs rampant these days using email.
    The Comcast team has been notified and will followup, expect a response here by tomorrow.

    Hi all,
    I tried this and it worked:
    1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
    2) Click the Manage your account link on the right sideof the page.
    3) Enter the account name (Apple ID) and the password you used when creating the account.
    4) Change the email address associated with your account.
    5) Send new verification email
    I also got this from apple CS for other things to try:
    Please follow these steps to access your Apple ID accountinformation:

    If you do not have duplicate email addresses on your account, it is possible that your email address is already being used withanother Apple ID.

    7) Choose Sign Out from the top right of the page.
    If you would like to have the verification email resentto you, please sign into https://appleid.apple.com/with the Apple ID you want to verify, and make sure there is not a typo in yourPrimary Email Address. Select the "Edit" link to the right of your email address to make corrections and then click the "Save Changes" button.Once the typo is fixed, or if there is no typo, click the "Resend"link under your email address.

  • How can you change your Apple ID to a new email address?

    My old email was deleted and I used this as my Apple ID. I now have a new one and can't change my Apple ID on my phone and iPad, (Under 'icloud' in settings). However I have been able to change it in iTunes &amp; App Store.
    I also tried deleting the account and re doing it in my new one but it asks for the password due to find iPhone being on, and it won't do it. (I remember my old password)
    Please help!
    It's very frustrating and keeps wanting me to sign in.
    Thanks

    1) Did you change that old email address to your current email address to be your current Apple ID?  If so, try to enter your current password for your current Apple ID/iCloud account.  If it doesn't work, try #2.
    2) If you don't have access to your old email account.  Same process, go to https://appleid.apple.com and sign in your current iCloud/Apple ID then edit it to your old email address then Save the changes.  DON'T sign out yet.  Go back to your iOS device then delete your iCloud account.  Once deleted, go back to the Apple ID website and rename it back to your current email address.  You have to verify it this time and you will be able to since you have access to that email address.
    3) If your answer to #1 is NO, contact Apple Support (Account Security Team) to help you reset its password but you need to have another email address available which is not yet an Apple ID to send the password reset email.
    Hope this helps!  Cheers!

  • Hello, i have been sent the following email from apple: - You've taken the added security step and provided a rescue email address. Now all you need to do is verify that it belongs to you... and asks for apple login details, is this a genuine request?

    Hello, i have been sent the following email from apple, see below and asks for apple login details, is this a genuine request?
    Thank you.
    You’ve taken the added security step and provided a rescue email address. Now all you need to do is verify that it belongs to you.
    The rescue email address that you gave us is [email protected]
    Just click the link below to verify, sign in using your Apple ID and password, then follow the prompts.
    Verify Now >
    The rescue email address is dedicated to your security and allows Apple to get in touch if any account questions come up, such as the need to reset your password or change your security questions. As promised, Apple will never send any announcements or marketing messages to this address.
    When using Apple products and services, you’ll still sign in with your primary email address as your Apple ID.
    It’s about protecting your identity.
    Just so you know, Apple sends out an email whenever someone adds or changes a rescue email address associated with an existing Apple ID. If you received this email in error, don’t worry. It’s likely someone just mistyped their own email address when creating a new Apple ID.
    If you have questions or need help, visit the Apple ID Support site.
    Thanks again,
    Apple Support

    In that case, someone is trying to hi-jack your Apple ID.
    You should change your password immediately.
