Using MobileMe Family Pack with iPad

I have a iPad and a MobileMe Family Pack subscription.
Why can't I have more MobileMe mail accounts, but not have my Calendars and Contacts of more then one MobileMe member account?
I also would like to see user management on the iPad!
Is there a work around available?
Thanks!

HI,
Setting up MobileMe aliases may work for you.

but not have my Calendars and Contacts of more then one MobileMe member account?
An alias does not have it's own calendar or contacts.

  • Backups over the Internet Using MobileMe Family Pack

    I know how to configure an AirPort (AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule) to be accessible for Back to My Mac using a MobileMe account. However, we have a Family Pack. I am the Pack master, so I used my ID to set up Back to My Mac on my Time Capsule (and Air Port Extreme at our other location). This seems to just make the master account work. Should the master account enable all of the MobileMe family accounts to leverage Back to My Mac (and hence things like remote backups)?

    Recent update to AirPort enables multiple MobileMe accounts to be used for BackToMyMac

  • MobileMe Family Pack- Setting up old sub-account in Mail

    This past spring we had a MobileMe Family Pack with one email account unassigned. Before MobileMe closed, i created an email address for my son, so that when he was ready to have one he would. Now i am trying to set that up for him, and am having quite a difficult time. I'm not sure if i'm setting it up wrong, or if it's even possible to do, since the account was never actually utilized before we migrated to iCloud.
    I logged into his name on our iMac and tried to use System Preferences>iCloud to set it up. After asking for his name and DOB, it told me he was too young to have an iCloud account (or maybe it was an AppleID; he's 8 BTW). So, i opened Mail (which for some reason is hanging mecilessly at evey click, beachballs nonstop) and went through the setup assistant. I thought i set up an iCloud email account successfully, using the me.com email i had created back in MobileMe. I don't remember setting a password up at that time, but i put in the one i most likely would have used and it seemed to take it. But when i tried to send him a message from my Mail, it would not send because it rejected his address.
    So, i went back into his Mail program and added an IMAP account using the same email address, using the incoming/outgoing server info from my account (p01-imap.mail.me.com & smtp.me.com:hisemailprefix). The incoming server for his iCloud IMAP account is not editable, BTW, and says mail.example.com in grey. Still no luck, both accounts cannot connect. When i try to check the iCloud account it says it can't connect to the iCloud server and asks for the password, and when i put in the one i used to set up the Mail account it doesn't accept it. this kind of makes sense since he doesn't seem to have a full-fledged iCloud account. When i try to check the IMAP account it says it's offline, and when i try to take it online it asks for password but won't connect. mail Connection Doctor says Mail is connecting to the internet.
    Should i try to do this from my login and Mail, see if that works? Is there a way to reset the password i may have used when i originally assigned the MobileMe account? Does his Mail program constantly freezing mean something (all his other programs work fine)? Any advice is appreciated; thanks!

    As you did not migrate his sub-account to iCloud when this was possible (it would have become a separate iCloud account) you cannot retrieve the contents of his account. However unmigrated MobileMe addresses (other than aliases) can be reactivated by signing into System Preferences>iCloud with them and enabling Mail in the checklist there. Until you do this the account is not an iCloud account.
    As you have found there is an age limit. If you had given them an age greater than 12 you would have been able to set this up. As it is, it's not set up and no amount of setting it up manually in Mail or sending messages to it is going to work.
    The iCloud Terms of Service say:
    'The Service is available to individuals aged 13 years or older. If you are 13 or older but under the age of majority in your country of residence, you must review this Agreement with your parent or guardian to make sure that you and your parent or guardian understand it. Parents or guardians should also remind any minors that conversing with strangers on the Internet can be dangerous and take appropriate precautions to protect children, including monitoring their use of the Service.'
    Given this, it would not be proper to advise you to apply again mis-stating his age, even if the fact that you've already told them he is 8 does not technically bar you from doing this.

    How to establish and use MobileMe family email acct created at my iMac on iPad 1 that already has free yahoo mail acct set up on it.

    I don't know what the limit is for the number of email accounts that can be accessed with the iPad's Mail app if there is a limit, but it is definitely more than one email account.
    Add the MobileMe account - at Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, select Add Account. Select MobileMe and follow the prompts.

  • How I can use my family pack Microsoft Office Home

    How I can use my family pack Microsoft Office Home & Student 2010  PC software on my  current Mac Notebook?  Since my new operating system is "OS X" technically I wouldn't have such a issue, but it does & I couldn't run the office 2010.  By using iZip Unarciver only I was able to open the disk, but not to run 2010. 

    You have two choices if you want to use Office:
    1) purchase Mac: Office 2011
    2) install Windows on your Mac and use the Office 2010 you own

  • Can i use LTE in Italy with iPad 3 and iOS 6.1?

    Can i use LTE in Italy with iPad 3 and iOS 6.1?

    Unfortunately no. iPad 3rd gen LTE hardware is different than iPad 4th gen LTE hardware. Compatibility list  http://www.apple.com/ipad/LTE/  gives us no hope. Only in US and Canada you can use LTE with iPad 3rd gen. We are so unlucky. I paid for iPad 3rd gen 32Gb, Wifi + Cellular 729 Euros and only 5 months later Apple released iPad 4th gen. I am testing LTE on my iPhone 5 today and it really ROCKS.

    Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.

    Unless you install Windows on another partition using Bootcamp, or else install it in a virtual program like VMware Fusion or Parallels,  you will need to purchase Office For Mac 2011.

  • Using iWeb with MobileMe family pack

    I just upgraded to the family pack for mobile me. I had been using it for my homepage, but now I'd like to make a homepage for my son, and my wife wants to make a homepage as well.
    How is this handled in iWeb? I don't see a way to tell it where to publish which site when I add a new site.
    What is the easiest way to handle multiple mobile me websites on one mac?
    Thanks.

    Not having used the sharing option since there's only one user on my Mac, I don't know the ins and outs of what you want to do. Terence Develin might. If you want to share the library with all users and have them be able to access the library, import new file and perform edits then the best solution is to put the library on an external HD whose ownership has been set to off. This Apple document explains the process: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users.
    The drive can also be used to backup other files as well.

  • MobileMe Family Pack to iCloud email

    Greetings,
    My question regards my former "family pack" on mobile me.
    First, I have migrated all of my accounts and devices (well, until today) over to iCloud (3 macs, 3 iPhones, 1 iPad).
    Under mobile me, I was the master account holder, and I had sub accounts (emails) setup for my wife and daighter - all good.
    So, I used 2 of the 3 subaccounts available under my plan.
    Christmas brought my Son a new iPad.
    I figured I could just go in and use my 4th sub account to get him setup - however, under iCloud I see no provision to get to the account setup area.
    Is this now obsolete? I know I've paid for my family pack through (I think June 2012) all I really want to do is setup my Son with an @me email account (which he really won't even use for awhile) and make it so he can access the app store, etc.
    Do I have to setup a completely separate account for him (and pay yet another fee for iCloud service for him?
    What happens when my current family pack expires - separate accounts (and fees) for each user?
    I'm confused.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'd like to get this new iPad setup today :-)
    THANK YOU!

    Her email address is her Apple ID. She should go to http://me.com/move and enter her MobileMe email address and password to upgrade: she will need to be running 10.7.2.

  • How do I use my beats headphones with iPad?

    I am not literate with iPad, thus need help to use these Beats.
    It Appears the headphone jack doesn't fit the iPad. I mean it goes in but doesn't seat.
    Help!

    All Beats headphones use the standard 3.5 mm jack.  Unless they are wireless.  You may just need to press slightly harder on the plug to get it to sit in all the way.

  • Lion family pack with multiple Apple IDs?

    My wife and I each have a Mac, and we each have our own Apple ID. In the past for OS upgrades I could pay one price for a family pack and upgrade both. How do I upgrade both of us to Lion without having to buy the upgrade twice, once from each Apple ID?

  • Is my Leopard DVD single use or family pack?

    I bought Leopard for my laptop many months ago. I want to upgrade 3 home machines from Panther but cannot remember for a facrt whether I purchased family or not. I have the DVD and a manual but it does not say (or show a license key, did I have one of those, perhaps on the DVD case?).
    Is there a way to determine if this is family pack from the part number?

    What I sent are Apple's order numbers. I have no other information as I do not my Leopard disc with me.
    If you remember paying $129 for it then it's not the Family Pak.
