[QUOTE="girlgotsamac, post: 1440109, member: 269197"] So I have an Apple ID. For the sake of this email, we'll call it "FredAstaire@mac.com." One of my aliases is "GingerRogers@mac.com" and my partner "Ginger" has been using that email for many years. Since moving to iCloud, our identities have gotten too intertwined. For example, all emails she sends from [email]GingerRogers@mac.com[/email] are labeled with my name, Fred Astaire. Even Ginger's iPhone calls her "Fred" now that she is connected to iCloud. The only solution I have found is for her to create her own Apple ID, which she can do, BUT, and here's the big question: Is there any way that her new Apple ID can use her current email [email]GingerRogers@mac.com[/email]? She would like to continue using that email, but as herself, and not as me. (Or, alternately, is there a way we can share iCloud and not have everything label so mushed together?) [/QUOTE]
