ICloud :: Can't Use .mac Address?
Jun 13, 2012
My main email is a gmail address but I would like to start using my Apple mail more frequently. I have moved services to iCloud. I use OS X Lion for my Macbook and iOS 5 for my iPhone. My apple account is still myname@mac.com and this address is still listed as "verified" in account settings. When MobileMe came along I mainly used the "@me" affix but I still occasionally sent mails using @mac, selecting it in from the drop down menu in Mail.Recently I tried the same, selected to send from myname@mac.com but got the following error message:And when I tried to sent an email to myself from my gmail I received the following error message: "Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently..Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 5.1.1 unknown or illegal alias: myname@mac.com (state 13)."The myname@me.com works as it should, operating normally in iCloud. Is there any way I could use the ".mac" affix? I now think that this makes for a more handsome address than the more egocentric "@me".

Is this possible? I've created some contacts in Adress Book on my Mac (yes, under the "iCLoud" header), and they don't show on the iCloud website. If it's a one-way path from iCloud to Adress Book, then I guess that for anyone using iCloud for contacts, it renders Adress Book useless, doesn't it?Â
Btw, somehow the newly created contacts just vanished, so unless you good people provide me with a solution, I just won't use Adress Book again, because that was at least 30 minutes of my life straight to the trash bin.

Upon the strong suggestion by the Apple website that I change my primary e-mail address to match my AppleID, I did. I actually have two Apple IDs. The first one never had an e-mail associated with it that I know of, the second one was my MobleMe email (i.e., the second AppleID matched the primary email address for that account). I should also add that my iTunes account, plus all purchases are with the first AppleID.Â
Now, to my horror, I discover that there are no options to configure this e-mail account, The first AppleID was a @mac.com account, and that e-mail address does not work. I can't get it to work either. Everything I send to it bounces back, which now means that all my iTunes purchase receipts, etc., will be sent to a non-existent address that I can configure or create.

I'm tediously working through my address book and getting rid of duplicates and merging. One of the weird things is that there is now a # category at the end of the alphabet. Why are certain contacts listed there and not alphabetized? How do I get them up to the alphabetized part? I can't tell which device they came from.Â

I have a @me.com e-mail and when I got my mAC, a friend helped set up 3 others. When I send an e-mail, I use the drop down menu to select which e-mail to have it come from. I do not recall how he set it up. I need to create another one. and I am at a loss.Â

I was hoping to export an archive of Address Book which is running on my 10.6 server so that I could import it to iCloud's address book.Â
How can I do this? I can't see any functionality to import in iClouds's Address Book.Â
Do I have to have all of these server contacts "On My Mac" before iCloud will play ball?Â

My iCloud email works without any problems usually. But I keep getting this message at random times — usually after I quit mail, or my computer goes to sleep:What do I do? Is there a correct way to set up iCloud on my Mac's mail in order to avoid this? I'm running the latest Lion Mail on the latest MacBook Pro.Â

I'm getting up there in age, lol, and I'd like to change my e-mail address (that I made when I was 15) to something more professional. I've been up and down through mac.com and other blog websites, and I can't find anything on the subject of either opening a new account and closing my current one, or just simply changing my current one.

In iMac Prefs>Mail, Contacts & Cal, I have setup up and started an iCloud account. I make changes to my Address book and it is not syncing with my iPhone 4s, which also has iCloud syncing turned on. I know other pieces of iCloud work, as my emails do come across on both systems.

I use iCloud for my iphone 4, ipad 2, and MacBook Pro, all synced wirelessly via iTunes. However I can't get Address Book on the MacBook to update via iCloud. I've tried everything I can think of including deleting all entries and starting again, deleting the icloud account in preferences, ticking and unticking the enable box beside it, ticking and unticking the icloud box for contacts in system preferences (removing all entries at the same time).
I've selected the icloud account as the address book but it's still not seeing the contacts entries that I can see with my own eyes on the icloud website. It's never worked but I've turned a blind eye to it, since having got over the multiple entries and lost diaries fiasco when I first started to use it I've chosen to ignore the next problem.
