Replying using my business email address from my iCloud account?

I am about to switch from MobileMe to iCloud. I know I can set up my business email to forward from my gmail account to my iCloud account.  How do I set it up my iCloud account to reply to my business mail using my business email address? Is this possible?

I have answered my own question by looking at other threads on this topic - it appears that it isn't possible, which means I will delay switching to i Cloud till the bitter end.  Pity as I've upgraded to Lion to make it possible.  I hope Apple do something about this - particularly as 'user friendly' is one of their watch words.
No email system that I know of allows you to use their servers without their email address, at best you'll get a 'relay' message, and iCloud does not support POP (if indeed you were using the POP access feature in MM, which put the relay in the headers)
But nothing is stopping you from adding gmail to icloud in Mail and combining the inboxes, that way you can reply to any email from any account, but please use Imap, not POP

    Hi,
    How do I remove an email address from my icloud account as I am no longer friends with this man and every time i type an s his email address comes up - I want this to stop

    If you haven't already removed the email address from your contacts in cloud, you may want to start there.  If that doesn't work, then you may be out of luck.  Unfortunately, smartphones remember things we don't want them to :-(

  • Can I transfer my email address from old iCloud account to new iCloud account?

    Hi Guys,
    Basically I left the Apple ecosystem a year or so ago, I have recently purchased myself an iPhone 6 and decided I wanted a fresh start so decided to create another account.
    The only problem is I still use the old email and if possible I'd like to close it on my old account and have it transferred to my new one, is this possible? I'm not too fussed about losing calendars or contacts as I successfully transferred those over.
    So yeah, basically can I have my other email address moved over to the new account?
    Thanks

    You cannot transfer your iTunes account to your iCloud account. However you can change its login to another non-Apple address. Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID. Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'. Enter your new address (which cannot be an Apple address) and click 'Save changes'. Now open iTunes and sign out; sign back in with the new login address.

    How do I use may group email addresses from my hard drive at the .mac.
    At the .mac address book, all the names are listed but not my group list.

    The address book on the .Mac web site does not support the groups that you have defined in Mac OS X's Address book.

  • How can I remove an email address from one apple account and associate it with another?

    I created an appleID account to use with the mac AppStore without realising i previously had an appleID account from my first iPod touch.
    Now with OSX 10.8 I want to use the email address from the old account with the new account for Messages.app without having to manage 2 logins.
    I've followed the steps found on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68 under the section "How to add an additional email address that is already associated with another Apple ID" but each time I attempt to add the removed email address from the new account to the old account the input box shows the error: Email address is already verified for another Apple ID.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem and found a solution?

    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.

  • Move email address from one Verizon Account to another one

    Can I move my email address from my verizon account to someone else's verizon account?  If so, how and which group should I call to make it happen?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That would depend on who that "someone else" is and whether or not Verizon considers the relationship to be a valid (read: legal) one.
    IF Verizon considers the link between the accounts valid, then you should just be able to contact tech support and get the email address repointed, but bear in mind that repoints only go primary to primary and sub to sub.

  • How do I get an iCloud email address for an iCloud account that is already set up?

    When I set up my wife's iCloud account, I used her regular email address.  Now, when I try to iMessage her from my iPhone (4s), I am successful when I am on a wifi but not via my cellular connection.  I can iMessage other users.  I believe this is due to her not having an iCloud email address on her iCloud account.  I suspect that when my message is sent via cellular, it tries to go to her actual email address which fails.  She is able to iMessage me regardless of my connection from her iPad (4th).
    Does anyone know how to add an iCloud address to an existing iCloud account?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Thanks Jim.  I'm pretty sure it is set up correctly.  The only issue the ipad has is it dies not receive messages from my iphone when the iphone is not on wifi.  She can send/receive imessages to/from others and from my iphone when it is on wifi.  

  • Change email address on my icloud account

    I made the mistake of using an aol email address for all my accounts on my iPhone and iPad. Now I want to abandon that account and establish a .me account using that email as my address. Can anyone tell me how to 1) establish a .me account and 2) change the email address on my apple accounts?

    Are you trying to change the email address which forms the login? Or the @icloud.com address you created when you opened the account? You can't change the latter.
    You can change the login address as long as it isn't an @mac.com, @me.com or @icloud.com address.
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

  • I want to change the email address on my icloud account

    The email address I am using at the moment will not be available much longer so I want to change the address on my itunes account (I can see how to do that) and also on my icloud account.  How do I change the email address on my icloud account?

    If your AppleID is a .Mac or .Me account then you can't change it. But it shouldn't go away.
    If it is something else you can. Just log in here (https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/) and manage your AppleID. Click edit next to the ID and you should be able to simply change it.
    Cheers.

    Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then setup iCloud with your new ID.
    You can't change the Apple ID for your iCloud account, you have to delete it.

    I just got an iphone recently and I started my apple id using my gmail email address. I decided to change email from gmail to icloud so I setup an icloud email account and now I have two apple id accounts.  All my primary information is in the gmail apple id account and i just want to merge the two together.  I've tried changing the apple id on the main account to the icloud email, but it says it already exists.  How can I merge these two accounts without deleting one or the other?
    Thanks

    You can't merge iCloud accounts.
    You could move all your calendars contacts etc over from the account you don't want to the one you do, it's not simple but about all I can suggest.
