TS4002 Can I have associated email accounts in iCloud?

Under Mobile Me, I had a primary email address that  I used, and an associated account that my son used.  I never saw his email, and he never saw mine.  When I converted to iCloud, my son's email address seems to have gone away.  Is there a way to have an associated account in iCloud?  The support pages are not clear about that.
Thanks. 

Your son's account was presumably either an 'email-only' account (these have not been available to create for several years) or a sub-account on a Family Pack.
In either case, it should have been separately migrated to iCloud in the same way that you migrated your own account. As you have not done this, it's no longer possible and the contents of his account will have been deleted.
He may be able to re-activate the address by creating a new iCloud account using it; however he can only do this on Lion 10.7.2 or above (or an iOS5 device). He should go to System Preferences>iCloud and log in with his @me.com address; this may enable him to open an account with that as the email address. However if he had stored emails on his account previously there is no way he can retrieve these.

    Can I have two email accounts for game center

    Yes, you can have/use different Apple IDs for game center but youhave to sign out and sign in with the other (Settings>Game Center)

  • Can i have multiple email address for icloud

    can i have multiple email acounts on my new imac  if so how do i do that

    You can have more than one mail account. To add more, you can do it in two places:
    1. Open System Preferences > Internet Accounts, and press the + button.
    2. Open Mail and go to Mail menu (on the menu bar) > Add Account.
    Respecting to iCloud, you can have more than one mail address if you upgraded from MobileMe or if you used iCloud before the iOS 6 launch. In both cases, you will have a @me.com and a @icloud.com address

  • Can I have multiple email accounts or at least notification of emails in one location

    I have a hotmail, gmail, yahoo email accounts and want to either have them all running at the same time or at least setup email notification funneled to one of the accounts.

    Hi,
    You can open and use all the different accounts at the same time in different tabs. Please note that Firefox and other browsers are only for displaying the web pages, email pages etc. The actual emails, settings etc. are all stored at the web site/email site and are received and displayed from there. To make changes you may have to look in the settings inside the relevant email account.

  • I can not access my email accounts or icloud or messanger on my ipad

    I can access the internet but i cant use email, icloud and messanger. The email accounts under setting and email is gray and i cant click on the accounts.

    That looked helpful so I followed the Restore directions you sent me to. Now the trouble is that I've wiped all my data (having backed up first) and when I come to restore from my backup it again asks me for a password - which I haven't set.
    I have definitely not lost any password - I keep all of them in an mSecure file vault. I have a record of a passcode for the phone itself but that does not work.
    Is there any way i get get inside my iPhone Backup and find the mysterious password? None of the ones i use work!

  • How can a family member have an email account on iCloud, separate from mine?

    We're changing ISPs, and so my wife needs a new e-mail address. How can I switch her to @me.com, or @mac.com?

    She just needs to sign up for iCloud in her own user account on your Mac.
    See: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html
    She won't get an @mac.com email address though. New ones of those haven't been available for years.

  • Can you have an email account from a personal domain on mobile me?

    I want to be able to answer emails that come in from my personal domain website (www.writenow-communications.ca) with an email address [email protected] (I want mobile me email to reply from that name.)
    Is this possible, and if it is, how do I do it?
    I'm using iWeb '08.
    Thanks!

    iWeb is an application to create and publish webpages.
    It does not deal with e-mail either with MobileMe or 3rd party accounts.
    Better ask in the [MobileMe Mail forum.|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=960]

  • It is possible to have 2 email accounts in cloud

    Can I add another email account to iCloud? if so how do I do it.

    You cannot add another account to an iCloud account. You can add up to three 'email aliases' to an account- 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.)
    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
    Otherwise you can create a new iCloud account and add it to the mail app on your Mac or iOS device, or sign into it separately at icloud.com.

  • I have three email accounts on my iPhone.  one account is now constantly downloading old emails as unread.  I am know into the thousands.  How can I stop that

    I have three email accounts on my iphone.  one of the accounts is now constantly downloading old emails and marking them as unread. I can I stop this from happening?

    iPhone mirrors the content of your accounts. You can turn off that account by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > account > turn off mail. Then access your email account via webmail/website and delete them there. Once you turn on the account again in your iPhone it wont download them all. Otherwise to leave it downloading then mark them all read once downloaded.

  • How can another user on my system share their document if they cannot access a public drop box, do not have an email account setup on the system and we don't want to use iwork?

    Please help. My DS created a document under his login on my PowerBook and now, I cannot seem to access it. He doesn't have an email account of his own, I can't seem to save it as a public document in a drop box like I can from my own login and we do not want to use iwork. Is there a way to save it so that I can access it from my login to email to his teacher. I don't want to have to retype it into Pages under my login.

    Save the document from his account to an external drive or thumb drive.
    Set the permissions (using Finder > Get Info) for "Everyone" to Read and Write.
    Your DS will likely be the owner of the file, so you may need his login password to change the permissions.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • TS3276 I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

    I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

    Sometimes deleting the account and then re-creating it can solve this issue
    Write down all the information in accounts before doing this
    Highlight the account on the left and click the minus button
    Then click the plus button to add the new account and follow the prompts

  • HT1420 I have two email accounts associated with one iTunes account

    I have two email accounts associated with one iTunes account with two passwords,  I guess it happened when i changed my internet service provider. 

    Could be, but i do have an old email account, whis is not used, changed carrriers.  I have noticed that some songs have a cloud with a line through it.  I try to play it and a dialog box from Itunes pops up: "THIS COMPUTER IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PLAY "THE THINGS WE DO FOR LOVE(SOUND TRACK VERSION, would you like to authorize it?  THe apple ID haxe my old  email address " and an empty block asking for my password.  Well all i know is when you start trying to authorze with an old ID or something of that nature, the account is block and you need to do a new setup again.  And who knows what other problems that will cause,
    I just want the songs (i think there are several songs) assosiated with this old account to move to my new account.
    Any ideas?

  • If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account, how can I setup individual notifications for each account. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work to be different than perso

    If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account on my iPhone 4s, How can I setup individual notifications for each account? Fore example, if I get a work email, I want to hear a DING, DING....If I get a personal email, I want to hear a BEEP, BEEP. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work incoming email notification to be different than personal incoming notification. The only semi-workaround I've seen is just disable any notification for the Hotmail account, so only work emails would notify. But then I don't know when I get a personal email. Even the lowely Blackberry Torch 9800 has this feature..not iPhone 4s??
    Thanks

    Sorry you get only one notification sound for all email accounts.  you can send a suggestion to apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

    I have two email accounts on my MacBook Pro and iPhone that I have been using for a few years.  My phone works perfectly for both accounts.  Now one of my email accounts on the MacBook says the outgoing server is Offline?  How can I fix that so that both accounts send and receive email.  I have tried various things in settings but nothing seems to work.
