We have a family account on mobile me.

We have a family account on mobile me. I've moved the main email to iCloud but now it seems I can't move my other email adresses.
what to do?

If you have a Family Pack, each sub-account and the master account can be regarded as individual and separate for the purposes of the exercise. In each case all you have to do is go to http://me.com/move and follow the instructions, and it doesn't matter what order you do it in. Because of confusingly worded instructions from Apple some people have got the impression they have to cancel the sub-accounts first: do not do this. If you migrate the master account first the others will continue to run: obviously what was the master account will not have any control over them nor be able to administer or delete them in the event it wanted to. If you migrate a sub-account while the master account is still running you can't create a new sub-account to fill the gap. Aliases will be maintained but unlike in the MobileMe Family Pack you cannot convert an alias to a full iCloud account.

  • My wife and I have a family account at Verizon and are thinking of getting the IPhone 4S.  My question is can we both use the functions of Icloud on the same account at Verizon or do we have to have separate accounts to be able to use all the features

    My wife and I have a family account at Verizon and are thinking of both getting the IPhone 4S.  My question is can we both use all of the features of Icloud with one account at Verizon or do we need to have separate accounts?

    If Mail in Mavericks is the same as earlier versions you can select accounts in the sidebar, so that you can either display the inboxes for individual accounts, or the contents of all the account inboxes. (If the accounts don't show click the disclosure triangle next to 'INBOX'). The layout may have changed since the version I have - Snow Leopard - but you should be able to do the same thing.

  • How do I see all of my family accounts

    I used to have 5 family accounts on mobile me-I can't find them after moving to icloud.  I want to start using one of the accounts i set up.  Where do I find it?

    I'm so confused.  OK.  Thank you first of all for answering.  But basically-I had created an email account when I had the mobile me family plan-and I can't remember the exact name of the account-but when I tried to access it--it told me I didn't have it. 
    Basically I want to open an icloud account for my new business--do you know how I do it?

  • How do I add family accounts to the my icloud  account?

    I have three family accounts that have different emails and passwords.  Can I use I cloud to share data and purchases?

    No. This is probably THE biggest pain at the moment.
    Apple is working on a "Apple ID merge accounts" function (if I have read the correct press here), because of a mass of users having the issue of multiple Apple ID's and content spread amongst them all.
    One aside here: best practice is to change your Apple ID when you want to use a different email address. (here: https://appleid.apple.com ) rather then EVER using multiple Apple ID's in the first place.
    One caveat... of course some Apple ID's people need separate for business/developer use, but for personal usage more than one is never recommended.

  • Multiple copies of e-mails in the wrong family account.

    I have a family account for MobileMe set up with only two accounts, one for my wife and one for me.
    MobileMe syncs 3 computers (iBook, new MacBook and a 24" iMac all running OS X 10.5.6) and an iPhone 2.5G and an iPod touch.
    When an e-mail is sent to my wife, it appears 3 times in my InBox and not at all in her InBox. Messgaes sent to me only appear once, correctly, in my InBox.
    Has anyone any ideas about what could be causing this? For instance, does having 3 computers have some bearing on it?
    John

    A further thought is that multiple e-mails in the wrong InBox only occurs when the sender has a mac.com or me.com account. I have noticed that "outside" e-mails addressed to my wife go into her InBox correctly.
    But this may not be true of all e-mails.
    Also, after making some changes to my Mail prefs, I am now only getting 2 e-mails in the wrong box!
    Note: I was reducing the choices for incoming mail servers. No smpt.mac.com. Only smpt.me.com.

  • How to post calendars to Family account

    Hope this isn't too stupid a question, but we have 3 or 4 people at work who did have individual iCal accounts they'd published successfully. The company recently insituted a family account for them, as it was less costly and, it was assumed, more useful.
    However, nobody now knows how to post /publish their individual iCal calendars to the new family account and I'm having trouble finding answers on Apple's web site.
    Can anybody help me out here? How can the individuals post their calendars now that we have this Family Account?
    MJM

    Sorry that I'm not very helpful... Are your employee computers setup with the family account? It should be as simple as publishing the calendar and having everyone subscribe to each calendar.
    You may want to write Apple to see if you can have this clarified because it is not in their FAQ section.. there is a form that you can fill out at http://www.apple.com/support/dotmac/ical/
    It would certainly be strange if you were unable to publish calendars from the family account....
    Perhaps your family account has not yet taken affect...
    "Note: When you renew a traditional .Mac membership with a .Mac Family Pack activation key, the new features and sub-accounts won't be available until after the renewal date of your current subscription."

  • I have two iCloud accounts, my original one that I used for iTunes years ago which has all my content, apps etc and a mobile me one which I got when I set mobile me up which has all my settings etc, this is causing problems, can I merge them?

    As I said I have two iCloud accounts, both do different things, i.e. my original iTunes account has all my app's and music etc, and then also the account which was set up for me when I set up a 'mobile me' account has all my calendars, contacts, settings etc, how can I merge these or even easily set my settings etc to go to my older iTunes account, I have tried to set up family sharing and all I can share is my calendars not my apps because they are with another iTunes account.
    I am also a little concerned that my fire vault has just set its self up using the mobile me account, if I was to get rid of an account I imagine this would be the easiest one to ditch then what would happen to all my encrypted data?
    Many thanks for your help.
    NIK

    I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

  • HT204053 I have multiple family members using one apple id account and all of each others information is going onto each others phones/how do i stop this?

    I have multiple family members using one apple id and all of our data is going onto each others phones/how do i stop this?

    Each person needs to have their own separate Apple ID along with their own separate computer user account and iTunes Library.

  • I have a family with multiple device (9) can I use same account to sync them without sharing contacts I dont want children to have?

    I have a family with 9 devices (4 iPhones, 2 iPads, and 3 iPods) can I put these on one account, so I can easily manage their devices.  But I do not want to share all information, such as contacts with children or calendars.  Is this possible??? 

    Yes.
    They all need an ID of their own to log into settings > iCloud but they can use the same ID to log into settings > iTunes & App Stores.

  • I have just moved from MobileMe, where I had a 'Family account' (with unique email addresses for my wife and myself) to iCloud. We share the Cal and Contacts on our iMac. How do we sync to multiple devices - we each have iPads and iPhones? Mine sync OK...

    We have just moved from MobileMe, where we had a 'Family account' (and we each have our own @me.com email addresses) to iCloud. We share the Cal and Contacts on our iMac. How do we sync to multiple devices - we each have an iPad and an iPhone, but with different accounts set up for mail. Mine syncs OK to Cal and Contacts, but hers doesn't. There must be a way! Please help.

    According the this: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html, "After moving to iCloud, family member accounts are no longer linked to the master account."  You can share an iCloud calendar (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690), but I don't think you will be able to share iCloud contacts unless you are signed into the same iCloud account on both phones.

  • If i already have an itunes account with my family can i open a new account to sync my old and new phone

    if I already have an iTunes account with my family can I open a new iTunes account to sync my old iphone 4 and new iphone 5?

    Hi Rileycarline,
    You can easily have an iCloud account that is separate from the Apple ID that is used for iTunes purchases. Take a look at the article below to walk you through that specific setup process of have an account for iCloud and one for Store purchases. 
    Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Could you tell us a little more about what you want to do. Bear in mind that iTunes has nothing to do with your iCloud account.

  • Can I have a family Itunes account

    I have my own iTunes account and iCloud and all that.
    I have an iPhone and an iPad, using iTunes on Windows on my personal Laptop.
    My wife has an iPhone and iTunes with her own account. With her iTunes on her personal Laptop.
    We both have work laptops.
    Is there any way to consolidate our iTunes libaries and databases into one place.
    Can this be done with iMatch and iCloud?
    What I really want is to have is that we have one iTunes account that we can access from anywhere and that synch's to all our devices.
    that way we can share/create/edit playlists and all that from any device.
    Is there a way to merge both of our accounts into one family account or something?
    Or will I just have to trasnfer a libary from one to the other and we both use that Apple Id.
    Then enable home sharing and iMatch ?
    Will that do the trick?
    How many authrised computers and devices can you have on one iTunes account?
    Thanks

    Hi
    that helps alot
    so there is no Merge,
    What I need to do is transfer the contents of my wife’s library to my home PC.
    then get rid of her iTunes account.
    Set up her laptop with my account, setup her work laptop with my account, set up her iPhone with my account.
    Set up my work laptop with my account.
    that way, any purchased material will be available on all our devices?
    So, how do I now get rid of the huge database on my personal Laptop, I want to move it to a more reliable platform, An external Raid Network Hard disk, or use the iCloud.
    My understanding is that if I leave my Laptop on at home, and use home sharing and iMatch, then I will have effectively have moved my database to the cloud and home sharing allows all computers to access my local database.
    Is this the best solution - it seems very convoluted?

  • Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating.

    Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.

    I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.
