Two email addresses on iCloud

I have two email addresses on iCloud...*****@icloud.com and *****@me.com.  How do I migrate the ones from me.com over to iCloud.com?

It sounds like you have set up iCloud on both of your Apple IDs. So, you do have two iCloud accounts. And since Apple IDs cannot be merged, they will remain separate and independent of one another. I would suggest that you decide which one you want to use and copy or save your documents to that iCloud account.
Purchases you have made via iTunes will remain with the Apple ID that they were purchased under. However, you can change the password on the ID you are going to mothball to be the same as the one you are going to actively use, and that way, when you are asked for a password to update an app, you won't have to be concerned with which Apple ID is displaying the password request.
Also, make sure that your computer is authorized for both Apple IDs so that iTunes purchases will be accessible regardless of which ID you have signed onto iTunes.
Cheers,

  • I have downloaded icloud for pc and sync-ed outlook with the account, however on my iphone i cannot get the mail for my two email addresses i have registered, any ideas please?

    Hello all,

  • Changing email addresses in iCloud

    I recently upgraded to Lion and switched my mobileme email addresses to iCloud. I want to replace one of my aliases with another. Can anyone tell me how to do this please?

    How many aliases did you have in MobileMe? You were allowed five, but iCloud allows only three. If you had five, all will have been migrated but you will have to delete three before you can add one. If you currently have three you can delete one but you will have to wait a week before you can add another. If you have only two you can add another one immediately.
    Go to the Mail page at http://icloud.com , click the cogwheel icon at top right and choose 'Preferences', and click 'Accounts' in the toolbar of the pane which opens.
    If you have more than two aliases, select one or more and click the '-' sign below the list. If you hava a space available, click 'Add an alias'.

  • I have changed my apple email address and icloud is asking me to sign in under my old email then saying my password is incorrect how can i change it pls

    I have changed my apple id but when i try to log into icloud etc it lists my old id therefore my password is wrong as there is no such account now, how do i change this to show my new id and get into my account

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. 
    If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    How can I change my email address on iCloud?

    Hey Sblan2,
    According to the following document, you are unable to change the iCloud email address.

    However, one option you have would be to create an email alias:

  • How do I set up two email address on the same account?

    Using Mail in Mac OS X 10.6.2 and moving to Mac for the first time, I have been unable to set up two email addresses on the same account. Entering them, separated by commas, as advised in the Help does not seem to work. I have tried making them both the same password and have tried separating the passwords with a comma but no luck. Unable to set up another account for the second address because it correctly tells me that the account already exists.
    Is there a way?
    Thanks for any help.
    AllanGlen

    After a comprehensive trial and error session, using a new Guest Account each time to be sure of no contamination from the previous trial, I have finally cracked it!
    The problem was logging on to the outgoing server.
    Setting up the first account was fairly straightforward but if I allow Mail to do it automatically I am unable to send because Mail has defaulted to 'Authentication Required' when my server does not require it. Setting the account manually without authentication enables send and receive to work OK.
    If i try to set up the second account automatically, Mail crashes.
    If I set it up manually and choose 'No Authentication', Mail crashes.
    If I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the full email address as the User Name together with password, Mail crashes.
    If I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the first part of the email address together with password, Mail crashes.
    However, if I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the first part of the email address as User Name and no password, Mail accepts it and sets up the account.
    At this point the account receives mail but cannot send it.
    If I go into the Mail preferences and try to edit the outgoing server details, Mail will not accept no Authentication.
    I eventually found that if I uncheck the 'Always Use This Server' box, all account then use the server on the first account, which is correctly set up.
    Now I have my four email accounts all able send and receive.
    One little concern remains. In Outlook Express I could look at the properties of a received email and see what address it had come from, together with many other details. I haven't found out yet whether this can be done in Mail. I just wonder whether if I reply to some email, it will appear to have come from a different address from the one it was sent to.
    Thanks again for all the inputs.

  • I need to change my iCloud email address.  I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there.  Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account.  I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore.

    I need to change my iCloud email address.  I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there.  Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account.  I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore so I can't have the password sent there.  To sum it up, iCloud has an old email for the account log-in.  I don't remember the password for the old email.  I have Find My iPad activated so the iCloud account cannot be deleted.  And I am already logged out of iTunes & App Store. 

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • HT204053 can I use more than one email address on icloud (using iphone and mac)?

    I have an email account which seems to be using icloud, and I want to add another email account so that I can access it via icloud.  Is it possible to have more than one email address on icloud?  I have an iphone 5 and a macbook.

    You can only have one email account for each iCloud account.  You can create up to three alias addresses, but these will still receive email in the current account inbox.  This explains how to create an alias if you want to do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.
    You can create a second ("secondary") iCloud account on your device by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and entering a different iCloud ID.  This will give you second iCloud email account but it will only be fetch email (not push).  Also, you can only create a maximum of three iCloud accounts on each device so this would use one of your allotted accounts.

    Hello RousePryor
    If the iCloud account ends with an @icloud.com, then that is something that you cannot change it. If that is not the case, then you will need to sign out and may need to change it back to the old Apple ID to do so.

  • HT4864 Can i use my old email address on ICloud?

    Can i use my old email address on ICloud?

    iCloud mail handles only its own emails - you can't collect mail from other accounts as you could with MobileMe - so all you can do is set up forwarding from other accounts to iCloud. However you can only use the iCloud address as the 'From' address when using its outgoing server, so when you are using your Mac or iPhone you are better off setting up other accounts separately in the Mail app. Only when using iCloud webmail will this then be an issue.

  • How to change an inactive email address in icloud?

    I just bought a new iphone 6 plus however during start up, I entered an old/inactive email address in icloud and during creation of apple id. I manage to restore to factory settings and get started again using new email address and apple id. However, I cannot change the original email address in icloud and moreover, I cannot find Facetime icon (maybe restricted by service provider since I am currently in Saudi Arabia). Please help. Thanks in advance.  

    That's simply not possible. If you used an inactive address you wouldn't be able to continue and verify the address, which means that iCloud cannot yet be set up using that address.

  • The email address for iCloud for me is no longer in use. I need to change my email and password on my iPad.

    On my iPad it will not let me change my email address. The old one is no longer in use and I cannot get emails on it any longer. How do I change iCloud email address on the iPad?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email address") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.

  • Two Email Addresses, One Account

    Hi Folks, I have two email addresses with Outlook.com, one is my personal address and the other is a send and receive custom domain work address both set up in the one outlook account on my iphone.
    I can send and receive from both addresses, the problem I have is when replying to a mail sent to my custom address the recipient sees it as coming from my  personal address, there isn't a way to choose which address I'm sending from.
    I'm aware that two separate accounts would fix this but unfortunately Outlook.com doesn't support custom domain names as primary accounts.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.
