Two accounts with same email address: TROUBLE!

In experimenting with accounts (to solve a problem involving connecting to different ISPs at different times), I wound up creating a second account with the same email address as my regular one. These were POP accounts. When I realized that wouldn't help me, I deleted the second account. To my surprise, Mail deleted all of my inbox, sent mail and trashed mail. It still showed many, many mails (in those places) with the indication "you must reconnect to the server", but in fact I rebuilt the mailboxes and the mails were truly gone. I think Mail shouldn't have permitted the second account to be created in that way. Loss of mail is pretty serious, and there was no indication to me that I was doing anything wrong. I hope this is fixed in the next version.

I don't know a workaround for that other than to use a different address for the calendar share.

Can I make two accounts with one email address?

I am a newbie so I hope this question makes sense to someone out there. When I purchased an ipod for my daughter several years ago, I opened her account with my email address because she was so young at the time. I now have an ipad for myself and we are arguing over whose account it is. As an example, when I was playing an ongoing game on my ipad with my name attached to the account she complained that she couldn't play the same game with her own accumulating score so we edited the apple id password to her name and now it is associated with her Facebook account so my identity in the game is in lala land and I cannot access it. Is it possible to have two separate identities with the same email address used for your apple id? How do we go about setting up them so we can switch between them? Any help with this issue is appreciated, thank you.

You need to be in a country to use its store, so you can't buy content from the French store unless you are in France with a France billing address on your account. You can try requesting that the music be added to the Canadian store, but unless the record company/rights-holder agrees to it then Appl won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
Is it available on other music purchase download sites that you have access to ?

Multiple accounts with same email address

Hello,
We are working on a system where we need a blackberry to access an email account, for example [email protected] - in this case its a POP account. However we are also using a google apps for business account for calendaring where the login is [email protected] We can't add two accounts, one email and one google with the same email address. Is there anyway around this?

Can not retrieve my password using my email address nor birthday as security question, can not access my purchases to update them even if I creat a new account with same email address, what can I do?

Has anyone had an issue with password and not been able to retrieve it using email nor answering security questions? This is my case, I tred to do both, I do not get any email from Itunes to let me know how to do. If I try to reset it using my security question, which was my birthday, does not work either. I believe someone changed everything for me and I do not know what to do because in oder to update all my purchases I need my original account. I just created one using same ID and e-mail address, all successful, but it does not mean that I'm able to retrieve all my prurchases because it's a new account...Please, any idea, I appreciate your comments and/or feedback, Thanks!!!

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

Two account with same UPN in Active Directory

Is it possible to have two accounts with same UPN in AD?
I'm using Windows Server 2012 R2

To expand on what Mr X said. Active Directory allows you to assign just about anything to the userPrincipalName attribute, as long as the value is unique. The value of this attribute is generally referred to as the UPN. But you could assign values with no
"@" symbol, for example, or more than one "@" symbol. Also, Active Directory does not require that any value be assigned. It is an optional attribute.
If no value is assigned to the userPrincipalName attribute, then the user can use a "default" UPN, which is <sAMAccountName>@<DNS domain name>, where <sAMAccountName> is the "pre-Windows 2000 logon" name of the user
(the value of the sAMAccountName attribute), and <DNS domain name> is the DNS name of the domain.
If a user has a value assigned to userPrincipalName that does not match this "default" form, then they can logon with either UPN, as long as no one else has either value assigned to their userPrincipalName attribute. You will note that Active
Directory enforces uniqueness in the domain on sAMAccountName values.
If in domain "domain.com" a user has a sAMAccountName of "jsmith" but userPrincipalName "[email protected]", then another user can have userPrincipalName of "[email protected]" (as long as no one else
has that value assigned to userPrincipalName). They can each logon with their assigned values for userPrincipalName. But the first user can no longer also logon with their "default" value, based on their sAMAccountName, because it is now
used by someone else. But if you attempt to assign a value to userPrincipalName that is also assigned to another user, you get an error.
Bottom line, only one person can logon with any given UPN.

Trying to update my account with new email address.

My original account details I put in the wrong (non existent) email address.
Problem is appears I have since already setup a new account with new email address from my iphone.
Now verification emails are being sent to non existnet email address and I can't change itunes account on laptop.

Did you update your old iTunes account or create a new one ? If you updated the old one then try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then you will need to continue to use the old account to download updates to its apps (or to redownload its content) - content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it and it can't be transferred to a different account.

Multiple accounts with same email

I have multiple accounts with same email
The one that has all my contacts is the one attached to FB but for some odd reason I can no longer access this specific account
When I try to reset my password, it only keeps asking me to change my FB password
Once I try logging in on Skype, it keeps asking my FB to connect to the other 2 Skype accounts, completely diffente usernames
I am only interested in the one that originally connected to my FB as it has all my contacts
As my other 2 accounts are my old Skype accounts and have my old contacts from years ago

Actually this morning I was able to log on the account from an iPad with no fuss but the pc refuses to sign in^^^!???! "Skype couldn't connect" - What is going on???
I also found out that I could sign in via a browser but not via skype program... So I uninstalled it and installed it again and it's working now...
I have now changed the email so I don't have 3 accounts with the same primary email as Skype seems to not being able to handle multiple accounts with same email!!!

How do I set up another Apple ID with same email address so that my daughter can use game center with her own account?

We have two Ipods and an Iphone. We usually just use my Apple ID for everything on each device. However, when downloading games to the game center, we have to use my Apple Id and then it automatically sets up my game center username on my daughter's Ipod. But she wants to play some of the same games that I do but she can't because my username keeps coming up.
How do I add another Apple ID to the same email address or create another user id for the game center?
Thanks!

I don't believe you can do that; here is some info:

My husband and I share an email address. He now wishes to have an itunes ie Apple account, but it won't let him as there is already an account with that email address- yes, of course, it's ME. How can we resolve this?

My husband and I share an email address. he now has a new phone which requires a link with itunes; he'd also like an itunes account. However, when he tries to set up an account, he repeatedly gets told the user name - ie our email address, is already taken. And then his attempt fails. SO surely two people with the same email address can have seperate apple accounts?

I have two Iphones with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID. Will that cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

I have two Iphones 5 with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID account.Both are using IOS 8.
I would like to set up a new Apple Id for one of the phones and remove it from the old account.
If I do that, can I move all of the purchased apps and songs to the new Apple account?
Also, will sharing one Apple ID account with two devices cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address). While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud. You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

Two accounts on one email address?

On September 14, I started getting emails from Skype in Hungarian. I translate the message, it says
Welcome (someones username),
You have a new voice message!
All the links in the the email look legit, they all go to the skype.com root domain or subdomain of skype.com. The message also says to log into skype to listen to the message.
The username in the email is not mine. If I search for the username, it looks like it is a real account.
How is it possible for someone to sign up to skype with an email address already being used for skype, or how is it possible for someone to change their email address without confirming it is their email address?
This is a security problem... I could probably reset this users password right now.
How do I fix this?

You don't need two accounts. Just use the same one.
If you need two accounts then get one of the free one available, hotmail, yahoo, gmail, and so forth.
