Trying to set up additional email on an itunes account my sister and I share, so I can use Imessage etc, but I'm having difficulties
We noticed I've been getting her messages, all of a sudden too. Her phone number and email is hooked up to the account since its her credit card, she has an IPhone of course. But I know that people can use Imessage on their IPod touches I'm just having a hard time setting it up and she doesnt know how to do it either. I got an additional email hooked up to the account I believe because when I turned on IMessage it asked where I'd like the messages to come from and I picked my email and got rid of hers but it asks me for a password, we figured it was the account password but its not.
Can someone help? Thanks (:
I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

The question basicaly says it all. I mean I verified the account on my email and everything and on Imessage I set it up so that on my Ipod only messages would be sent and recieved from my email...but it never fully sends. It says sending and the bar almost fills up but then it says failure. What am I doing wrong?

I changed my Apple ID a year ago when my old email address ceased. Now I can use my Apple ID ok, BUT when I tried to set up I-Cloud, my MacAir identifies me by the OLD ID, which means I can't proceed? I want to connect my MacAir and my Imac.
An addition, not a reply.
The problem is that my MacAir SYSTEM PREFERENCES somehow has NOT registered that I changed my Apple ID a year ago, ALTHOUGH I have been using the new one regularly on the same computer!!!
SO, when I go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES to try to sync my two devices, the MacAir will not allow me to use my current Apple ID.
The difficulties with using the old ID are:
1 The email address no longer exists!
2 I forget the password (obviously the prompt is no help since the email address is defunct! )
So, it seems I am in a perpetual loop. -

Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer. Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server. The new password is working on my home computer. I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.
I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.
Thank you,

In trying to set up mobile email, I input wrong server and now it keeps trying to verify. How do I get out?
1. Close all open apps - double-click the Home button and swipe up on all of the thumbnails for all open apps
2. Reset the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your issues are resolved

Error is: Cannot connect using SSL. Do you want to try setting up the account without SSL?
Answer: Yes
Then "Verifying" appears at top of screen but nothing happens.

TS2621 I keep getting the error message "yahoo! server unavaible" when trying to set up my email
I just got my Iphone 5 and I'm trying to set up my email. I keep getting the error message "Yahoo! server unavailable". Help! Thank you.
There are different ways, but delete that email account and this time when you go to set up your email, dont start in the yahoo setup tab, do it in the " Other " tab and set it up that way.

I am trying to set up icloud emails on outlook 2010. It only lets me add 1 email rather than two. One is for me and one for my husband.
Maybe you should ask on a Microsoft forum rather than one dedicated to the using the iPhone in an enterprise environment.

TS3899 trying to set up my email with my phone and it won't accept my email password
Hi,
I'm trying to set up my email info on my phone and it won't accept my password form my hotmail account?? helpHi Guys
Thanks for all the input. I guess I need to clarify my situation a little better.
I've always had a Blackberry and made the sitch last week.
My work email is merely a forward that our ISP handles.
So if you send me an email to [email protected] my ISP forwards it to my Gmail account. Within Gmail I was able to set it up that any email I send or reply to comes from my [email protected]
Now that I have an iphone the game has changed. Using Microsoft Exchange I set up my email and no problem sending or recieving but when I send an email or reply to an email its coming from [email protected] and I want it to be coming from my work address.
Thanks again

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!
I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

Just got new air and trying to set up. When I put in my Apple ID and password it comes up with error message 'can't sign in because of server error. Try again signing on.' Trying again does not fix. I know my ID and PW are right as work on other apple devices I have.
