Two email addresses, same account

We have a MobileMe me.com account, let's call it [email protected] My wife also has a iCloud account [email protected] When I log into iCloud with [email protected], it also includes the iCloud.com email address, with no option for removal. I want the two accounts to be totally separate. I am not sure how they got linked together.  This iCloud.com  is the iCloud account that is configured in the iCloud Settings on her mac.   It comes down to Apple thinking both accounts are the same. Help! I have searched the internet but cannot find this issue answered anywhere.

Are you sure that it's [email protected] which is appearing in your account? Your 'MobileMe' account is now an iCloud account so as well as [email protected] you also have [email protected] - they are essentially the same address.
If [email protected] is really turning up on your account this shouldn't be possible, and you will have to take it up with Support. To avoid being charged tell them it's a security issue. This Apple Help page provides contact information for various countries for security problems with an Apple ID:

  • I changed my Apple ID (new email address, same account), but when I try and use my iPad, it is asking me to sign out and delete the account, losing all data.  If I do this, will it all still be there on my new ID? Thanks.

    I changed my Apple ID (new email address, same account), via the Apple website on my laptop, but when I try log into ITunes on my iPad, it still has the old ID.  It is greyed out, so I can't change it.  On researching further,  it seems I have to sign out of iTunes and sign back in using new address.  Ok so far, but when I do this, it asks if I want to delete the account and any data on the cloud.  If I do this, and sign in with changed ID, will all the data be there Or will it be lost?  Thanks for any advice.

    Sounds like apps purchased from those accounts got synced to the iPod and it is asking to log into that account to update them.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    What do yo see if yo go to the Updates Section of the App Store app?

  • 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.

  • 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.

    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.

    Hi, I use two email addresses within one account with gmx.
    I created one account with the first email address now. How do I add the second one to this account?
    Now it looks like this.
    One account was opened with address A.
    I receive in this account emails for address A and B.
    But I can only write and answer with address A.

    Hi Rudegar,
    Sorry for my late reply.
    It s not the amount of accounts I'm struggling with.
    When I create now for both email addresses one account, then I receive the same emails two times.
    That is not what I want.
    Because on gmx the two email addresses have the same inbox and outbox.
    E.g. I can login to my gmx account either with email A or B. It doesn't matter.
    Now I want to have the same on my ipad.
    One account with both email addresses.

    Hello all,
    I have just bought an iphone and am trying to set up the two accounts to receive emails on my phone.
    I have downloaded icloud for the pc and have successfully uploaded all information to my icloud, and this is now reflected on the phone showing all my contacts etc, but when i click on 'mail' on my iphone its empty... I have two email addresses in which i need to receive on my phone at all times, any ideas as to why this isnt working?

    Just to add, i have also set up the two email addresses and verified them within my icloud account, but still no sync to my iphone or showing on the icloud account...

  • 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.

  • Two Email Addresses, only check one?

    Hey, everyone.
    Let's see if I can explain my crazy situation:
    I just bought the 32 gb 3GS, upgraded from the 16gb 3G. Sweet phone, much faster! The following problem didn't exist on my 3G phone, but it does with this one.
    The Setup:
    1. I have two email addresses, one Gmail and one with my work domain.
    2. I forward my work email address to my Gmail account so I only have to log into gmail to reply to both personal and work emails.
    3. I had it set up on my old iPhone so that it only checked my Gmail account, but let me send with my work email if I chose to do so....which is most of the time.
    4. Now, for whatever reason, I can add the work email account, but I can't seem to figure out how to get it NOT to check my work inbox, but still let me send from that email address....
    See what I'm saying? Anyone know how to make this happen? I'd hate to have to check and delete two sets of identical emails on my phone.
    Thanks!

    I am using the first method, so I know it works.
    Click Settings / Mail / Add Account / Other / Add Mail Account.
    Put your name (like John Doe).
    Put your email address (your work address, not GMail)
    Put your GMail password in the password field.
    Put a description (like Work Email)
    Click Save.
    The next screen lets you choose POP or IMAP. Leave the Name, Address, and Description fields be. Scroll down to Incoming Mail Server. Type
    imap.gmail.com
    In the user name field, type in your GMAIL user ID.
    Password should already be populated with what you entered before.
    Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server. Type
    smtp.gmail.com
    Type your GMAIL user ID in the User Name field. Type in your GMAIL password.
    Voila. Also, make sure you have validated your work email ID with Google. You do this under your GMail settings, Accounts. Otherwise it won't let you send emails through Google using your work address as a reply to.
    I just tried it again to make sure of the steps and it worked. Give it another try.

  • I purchased music on my computer with old email address, same computer new email address, but I get play music becasue it tells me computer not authorized...how do you authorize???

    I purchased music on my computer with old email address, same computer new email address, but I get play music becasue it tells me computer not authorized...how do you authorize???

    I have almost the exact same problem. I have a bunch of music, ringtones, TV shows, movies... stuff that I purchased that I can't authorize. All of these items were purchased with the same account I'm still using now. The difference is that I've changed my email address. I don't have the original email address from when I made those purchases and I'm unable to authorize them. I can see that when I view info on one of these purchases the "Account Name: " has my old email address... not my iTunes or Apple account. So, if I'm authorizing my iTunes using my new email none of these older purchases will work.
    I'm really curious how to fix this. I've got quite a few purchases from years back that I'd like access to, but I can't authorize using my new email/iTunes or my old email (the one used for the original purchases).
    Take a look at the info and tell me if you see "Account Name:" on one of your purchases. And is that associated to your old email address? There has to be a way to fix this or 'transfer' older purchases, especially if it's all under the same real 'account'.

  • I have had two email addresses

    I have had two email addresses(currant gmail.com) & me.com now deleted, I have an update for MyJournal app through me.com and when I attempt to update a message comes up saying this account has been frozen because of security. With other apps I have deleted them then reinstated the app with gmail.com but I don't won't to do that as it states that all data will be lost and I have 3 years of diary data on it. Advice please

    It sounds like you have multiple apple ID's, one of which has been disabled for security purposes. If that is the case in-order to fix that you will need to go to expresslane.apple.com and submit an inqury to be contacted by someone from iTunes, normally they will respond VIA email within 24 hours.
    As far as the apple ID is concerned, as long as you have the password, or can answer the security questions that you initially set up the account with, you can manage it at appleid.apple.com 
    You can rename it and associate it with an email account that you are currently using and have access to.
    Good luck..
