Apple ID email and primary
Hello
The email address that I use for my Apple ID ID is a gmail account. However, I never use gmail like email and use my email to icloud for my email address instead. I use gmail as my Apple ID, that I was unable to change my apple to icloud email address ID.
If historically I've always had my email icloud as the main e-mail on my Apple ID, so any email Apple (e.g. tax receipts for the purchase of the App Store, storage plan iCloud etc.) would go to my icloud email address.
However, since the end of December 2015 all emails from Apple are now in my gmail email address. I had a glance on the support pages and it seems that Apple is now forcing you to have your main email identical to your Apple ID.
I do not see this change announced anywhere is possible to make my icloud email to my main e-mail again? And no one knows why Apple made this change?
See you soon
Ahh... you are like many of us, in the same boat wishing for some date to occur; However, I hate to tell you it's impossible.

Can I put an old iPad up with a new Apple account (email and password) to send overseas to a friend. How do I do that? It is what I have and have not understood until now. Already synchronized and set a new iPad with my account on my MacBook Air. . Fact
Can I restore the oldiPad and when he asks me an Apple ID I log out of mine and create a new one by putting into his email and password put the address and and I don't want to put in a credit card, the value as 'None', then continue to synchronize the former iPat to the new account, but on my computer.
Or do I first log out of my own apple account before you restore the iPad and create the new account. Then restore the iPad and give the new account details?
I would then download a few free applications, like Skype, team Viewer, kindle, etc., using his account.
When I disable allow the iPad to my account/compluter/iTunes/iCloud/etc? I know that it's going to be synced to my computer, and she'll have to re - synchronize with its own computer (windows7) using the account I created for her. She will always be the apps that I have loaded on through my computer?
More important still, when log out of his account and back in my own, on my iPad new and already synchronized, will I even when my own music?
I would be very grateful if someone could take me through the steps one by one, as I am confused by all the different directions I think

I think I have 2 Apple ID. They each have their own email and they are both mine. How can I fix it?
Here's how it works: you can change your Apple ID email address and your content will move you to your new email address using the same Apple ID. An identifier Apple can not be combined with the ID or another address, it will survive as its own Apple ID yes I know I content purchased under more than one Apple ID and am stuck with it also.

An iCloud on two apple ID email address
Hello
I created an alias to iCloud email on my Apple ID account and I would like my wife to have access to this e-mail address, because we both share mail to this address.
My wife has its own Apple ID, which is part of our family account, however, because it is recorded on his iPhone with his own Apple ID, it is not allowed to access the e-mail address alias I created with my Apple ID.
So, my question is the following:
Can I have that alias e-mail access address time identifying Apple of my wife and my Apple ID?
See you soon,.
-Mark
No, your wife need to access your account to view your mail.

Can Thunderbird import emails and folders from AOL?
I still use AOL Desktop 9.6 on windows XP. I would use Thunderbird instead, but it will be my "registered PC" in several cases, 'Old' and 'emails sent? I experienced on a Mac with Apple Mail.app and found that it imported automatically all the old emails and sent to a Comcast account that had never been used with the webmail. My AOL emails could be imported from my PC or AOL servers. I really want to get rid of the AOL desktop software, as often, he runs several instances Aolsoftware.exe process and slows down the computer. Thank you.
In your account email aol Web, accessible via a browser, you will need to select "Reference of IMAP" to activate it.
With IMAP, you can choose to sign up to see the folders already on the server.
In Thunderbird
Right-click on the Inbox folder, and then select 'Subscribe' to see the list.Also, you can synchronize folders subscribed.

Why is Apple not emailing me?
I've forgotten the answer to my security questions, so I decided to reset them would be the logical thing to do. When I typed the option "Reset security issues", a message pops up saying 'an email with instructions was sent to m•••@gmail.com. Follow these instructions to reset your security questions. But when I checked, no email from Apple has been received. I tried a few times more, but still no new mail came. I have contacted Apple about this and waiting for a response email in return (they said it would come within 48 hours), but I have nothing. What is going on?
We are fellow users on these forums, we do not know why you do not get the e-mail to reset (you checked the spam and Inbox folder on your alternate email account?), nor why they do not have to contact you.
This is how you have contacted Support in your country: Contact Apple for the Apple ID - Apple Support account security support ?
When they have been reset check that you spelled your email correctly address rescue: on your Apple ID - Apple Support email addresses
