Will facetime work with my iCloud aliases?

Hi,
I've created a few aliases under my main iCloud email adress. I have been trying to add them to my Facetime list of emails so that I can be contacted. However, after attempting to activate my aliases from Facetime, I get an error message.
Could someone please kindly advice me on this matter?
Cheers,
Daryl

This is my current setup:
Created new iCloud account through iPhone by selecting Setting> iCloud
Chose to create a new account with an @me.com address, let's call it [email protected]
Then I went to iCloud.com>Mail, and created a new alias. It is my only alias, let's call it [email protected]
On the iPhone:
Settings>Facetime, I type in [email protected], and it's respective password.
The next screen is a screen that displays the above email address, and displays a Next button which I press.
A checkmark is displayed and a new screen appears.
This new screen displays the FaceTime slider showing that it is on. My AppleID is displayed.
Under "You can be reached for video calls at">"Add An Email", I enter [email protected]
As soon as I press the return key, an error pops up:
FaceTime Activation
An error occurred while verifying your email.
The verification process doesn't go through. Not even when I try to 'Resend Validation Email' when I tap the Error'd [email protected] email area.

My work computer runs Outlook 2003, which I know will not work with the iCloud, so I hard sync. But then the new info on my iPhone does not backup to iCloud. Is there a solution?

I have a Macbook and iPhone and like to back up to iCloud. However, my work computer runs Outlook 2003, which I know will not work with the iCloud. The company has no plans to update anytime soon. Since the calendar and contact list on my office computer are my primay ones, I hard sync through iTunes. The problem is that any data synced from Outlook 2003 to the iPhone from iTunes does NOT later backup to iCloud. Is there a solution?

I have the same problem with Outlook 2003 and Win XP which the multinational organisation I work for standardises on and will probably stay with forever!

(1) FaceTime cannot work with iChat.
*FaceTime ONLY works with other FaceTimes*:
• iPhone 4 http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/facetime/
• iPod touch Gen4 http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/facetime/
• FaceTime (beta) on iNtel Mac w/OS X 10.6.4 or later http://www.apple.com/mac/facetime/
*FaceTime works with _NO OTHER_ app from Apple, Skype, or anyone else*.
(2) You do not tell us which imac you use, so we cannot give a yes or no answer to your question about whether it is possible to use ichat *_on your mac_* to communicate with someones iPod or iPhone with facetime.
The answer to your question is yes, FaceTime is possible, but *ONLY IF* your Mac is an iNtel Mac that is using Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.4 or later) with the FaceTime beta application software.

My wife and I have separate Ids but all our music is in one library. How will this work with iCloud?

My wife and I have separate Ids but all our music is in one library. How will this work with iCloud? i'm trying to download past purchases from her id, but itunes is saying that I can't because the computer is associated with my apple id. Can I associate the computer with both ids for the purpose of identifying all of our music with both or just one of our ids? Is there a good way to do this? I'm sure we're not the only people with this problem...

You cannot merge two separate libraries across user accounts. Photos does not have the function of merging different Photos.library files. If you have Aperture then you can merge the two before migrating over to Photos.

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my email. I can't seem to purchase this on-line

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.

Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from download, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.

Will Facetime work on a late model iMac?

A neighbor has a late model iMac with Mountain Lion, will Facetime work if the Mac is hard wired to the internet? She tells me it used to work when she had WIFi and I'm trying to troubleshoot without spending too much time over there. So, I'm wondering if the lack of WIFI is the reason she is having trouble with Facetime/ Or should I look at other issues?

John,
Actually, using a wired ethernet connection with the iMac is a superior way to utilize Facetime. Faster, more reliable, more secure, and you need not worry about rf interference.
I'm not too familiar with Mountain Lion, so unfortunately, I can't help with the trouble shooting any further.
I'm using Facetime on an imac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 here, and i'm using a wired connection to the internet. It seems to me that Mountain Lion users do have more problems with FT than SL users -- don't know why. Just a guess, but to me it seems that the problem may be related to some sort of "setting" involved with the Mountain Lion network choices. Sorry I can't offer anything substantial to you, but wanted to let you know that your on a good track with the wired connection.

You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
         you will be running a fresh install of OS X. You can now begin the update process
         by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
         installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

1
Close all iWork applications
2
Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
3
empty the trash
4
shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
5
Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

Get a Virtual Macine software program, Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox, and install XP in a virtual machine.
You can't install XP in a Boot Camp Partition with Lion or Mt Lion, only Win 7.
