Southern California - NO iCloud email, DAY 2. When will my PRIMARY Email address work again?
"Working on it"
How about Why?
How about an idea of how long this will last?
Feedback is all everyone is looking for. Hoping for a better understanding of the issue sooner then later as well.

When will the ACROBAT PDF function work again for Office 2011 for MAC and PC?
HELP!!!!
Adobe Tech support suggested I submit my comment to this post in hopes that this will help resolve the issues. I feel for them having to field these calls.
I can no longer convert Excel, Word and Powerpoints to PDF. If our company converts one Office doc to PDF a day, we do at least 50 conversions to PDF. Since the 9.4.2 update, the PDF feature does not work on MAC...and since the 9.4.4 update it no longer works on a WIN system.
We have Acrobat 9 on all the MACs and PCs in the office. We downloaded Acrobat X to test it out when it first launched. Other than some nice bells and whistles with the convenient interface and new enhancements to the Portfolio feature, Acrobat X still does not do the basic function Acrobat was designed to do....convert to a PDF.
We began converting PDF's on the WIN systems because the file size and object data handling on MAC had become difficulty over the past year (lost fonts, file size bloated, etc). Now, nothing works on either system.
Last year Adobe and Microsoft Office suggested we upgrade to CS5 and the new OFFICE to fix the problems. MAC remains closed box which is why the system is so clean, but poses a real challenge when running non MAC software. Now Adobe advises that Acrobat only works on the previous version of Office (?), but not 2007 and that they are not compatible with the new office even thought it worked just a few weeks or so ago. Unfortunately, we have used some of the new features in the new Office and now are being asked to go back a step.
OFFICE automatically turns on your 90 day free tech support now when you call in to tell them PDF doesn't work. They feel they are giving YOU tech support. Last year, the Microsoft Office group advised that once they hand off to the PDF processor, that function is all Adobe. And it seems that Apple has their own Quark processor running scripts in between the two functions which is why the PDF file sizes are bloating on MACs.
The Adobe Acrobat engineers at AdobeMAX suggested to run Paralells or VMware on MAC in order to convert files to PDF properly/small size (which is what they say they do to get around the object data and bloating issues internally on their own MACs).
I know so many colleagues now who just run dual systems (WIN/MAC) so they can realize the full function of the Adobe software. It is not convenient when traveling or cost efficient for small businesses, but that is what we had to do to get our jobs done. I "HAD" a couple of the most incredible PDFing maching in my office until about a week ago...a $4k mega WIN System raided, 2 SDDs, 2 1TB HDDs, major video card, etc....and they are sitting lonely because PDF doesn't work anymore. But goodness, how fast it converted things to PDF.
Is there another patch coming imminenty to fix this issue?
I don't really care if there is a 32 bit or 64 bit issue. Customers pay premium price for the software which boasted 64 bit, etc and it should work as advertised. I ponder, are all my macs 64bit now??? They still don't work either. Customers depend on the software to do even the most basic functions in daily business and should not have to spend hours on the phone trying to figure out a problem that has nothing to do with them or a workaround because their investment did not work as advertised (and has genereally worked for years)....
One click of the button should be all that is necessary to make a PDF and make people everywhere happy when they need to send a secure output of their huge powerpoint to a customer to get business or their child's project for school that morning.
Is there a software war going on between the companies?
Are they rushing to market too quickly?
Do the companies thoroughly test the patches before running the updates?
Are there not enough API's or "hooks" allowing companies to make their products work with the different hardware, firmware, etc?
I don't really care what the internal issues are. Just fix it! The software should work as it is marketed (including the platform) and these companies need to get together and make it work (if that is the case) so their loyal customers can get their jobs done enabling them to purchase the next version of software that is suppose to be better than the last for their work.
Posted Respectfully and with hope this issue will be resolved promptly!Mr. Jones,
You are a real lifesaver!!!
It worked on the Mac. Will have to do some searches to find the same on the PC since the same is happening.
Do you happen to know why Adobe is saying they are not compatible with Office 2011 now? I found a link on the Adobe webite along those lines yesterday, but was not able to find it this morning to insert into this post.
Our CEO had a real meltdown at about 2am the other morning when trying to pdf something for a meeting the next day. Was not very pretty.
THANK YOU!!! -

I want to use one of my icloud email addresses as a new apple ID. It was an additional email contact address I originally set up for my child. But now, I'd like to set her up on Family Sharing, using that email as her ID. Obviously, when I try to use it when setting up a new apple ID, it says the email is already being used (Yes, by ME) and I need to select a different one. Can I somehow delete that email address in order to set up a new apple ID using it? Or is there another way to "re-use" that address for my child's new ID?
"Well, then I want to be able to merge that one and the one my purchases are on..."
This is exactly what I want to do but don't think I can:
I noticed the following :
If you attempt to create an Apple ID which is the same as your @icloud email address from the online facility, it does not allow you (can't use an Apple associated email address as your Apple ID). However - if you start a fresh device - such as a new iPhone, iPad (must be mobile it seems), and then create an iCloud account and Apple ID from the prompts when setting up the mobile device, it IS possible to have your Apple ID and @iCloud email address as the same. I know because I just did it!
Unfortunately for me, the result I got above is not for one of my own ID's but a friends, and I would VERY much like to do the same - my current Apple ID is a completely different email address from my iCloud account. Trying to get them the same in my situation is a major bother - I think that if I wipe a device (such as an iPhone5 that is mine) and try to setup as I did my friend's device, then I will get a conflict because the iCloud email I have ALREADY exists. This is my worry and I will not attempt this until I get the new iPad 4 soon to test this.
There is an inconsistency here between the two methods of creating Apple ID's and iCloud accounts.
Overall in my opinion, the Apple ID system as currently available from Apple is not designed very well, and should be addressed.

I have not been able to sync my mail with iCloud on my MacBookPro (Lion OS). Everything else has been syncing fine for the past two months, but when I go to System Pref/iCloud/and try to check Mail, it asks me to choose an iCloud email address. When I put in my regular @me.com email, it says that address already exists (of course it does - it's mine!) and wants me to choose another one. But I want it to sync with my stuff. What can I do? I haven't been able to find help anywhere online... Thanks!
You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

My iCloud email address and my apple ID are different. I would like to change my iCloud to be the same as my apple ID. However I don't know my iCloud password and don't use the email address it belongs to. When I try to change the password, apple brings me to a page to reset my apple ID password (which I know and don't want to change). I have even tried to delete my iCloud account completely to start again but am not allowed without the iCloud password (which I don't have) there doesn't seem to be a place to change the email address of iCloud. What can I do?
This is the answer that I had expected, so in this case you could only change your gmail.com address to another providers email addres e.g. outlook.com, yahoo.com, etc., but you won't be able to change the gmail.com address to a icloud.com email address. Apple just won't let you do that.
Your iCloud account with @icloud.com email address and you Apple ID with gmail.com address are already connected and as I said before, Apple just let you merge this two IDs together. -
My icloud email address is included in a friend's address group set up in Gmail. When they send an email to the group, the email never gets through to my icloud address - why?
They've always been able to send to me individually - just not when my email is part of a group or even when it's just included with several other addresses added one at a time.

When I send a text a icloud email address shows instead of my name?
When I send a text to people and icloud email address shows up instead of just my name. Where in the settings do I go to stop that from happening?
Settings>Messages>Send & Receive. Make sure you are signed in with your Apple ID and that you phone number appears under "You can be reached by iMessage at" and "Start new conversations from". Then tap your phone number under "Start new conversations from" so it is checked.

How do I change my iCloud email address as I made a spelling mistake when setting it up?
How do I change my iCloud email address as I made a small spelling mistake when creating my new iCloud email address originally?
When a user creates an icloud account, they use an Apple ID, like [email protected] to define it. If this use of an ID is what you mean, then NO you can't change it without creating a new ID and thus new account.
But if all you want to do is have a different email address associated with the account, then that you can do by defining an alias email address. Using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and go to the Mail page. In the upper right there's a cog wheel, click that and then choose preferences, then accounts. In the icloud account, you can add a new alias. Note that it must be of the format [email protected] -
When I try to check "Mail" in iCloud prefs on my Mac, it says I need an iCloud email address. I already have one (and I get mail at it). How do I fix this?
Have you reset the password recently for the email account?
A real simple fix usually is to delete the mail account (settings < mail contacts calendars, tap the affected account and choose delete at the bottom) Then re add the account. -
Error when replying to iCloud email address
Has anyone else had a problem with others not being able to reply to emails sent from an iCloud email address? I have had multiple businesses call and tell me that they are unable to respond to my iCloud emails and get the mail delivery failure notice when they try to reply. I am using my iPhone 6 to send the original email out to the businesses. I also have two other email addresses accessed from my phone. So when I send an email I have the choice of which email address to send from. I have not had this issue when I use the other two email addresses. Only my iCloud address seems to be the problem. Any suggestions? I have tried removing and re-settingup my iCloud email to my phone. Also this does not seem to be an iOS version problem. I have experienced this prior in a few other versions as well and currently have the most recent update.

hello guys ...i need any help or suggestions, how can i change my icloud email address?? i typed a w rong name by mistake?? can i change it and retype the correct one? thanks ...your suggestio is higly appreciated.
That's definitely not supposed to happen. You shouldn't have someone else's iCloud email linked to your ID.
You'll have to get iCloud support to sort this one out. The only way to contact them is to start here: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/. You'll have to provide your iPhone serial number. Unless it's within the 90 day free support window, or you purchased AppleCare, there will be a charge. I suppose you can plead your case when they answer that you shouldn't be charged as you didn't set up this address and it shouldn't have happened with your ID.
