Can I have 2 accounts on my iPhone. I have 2 on my computer and have a signal that 1 email is in my inbox. It is an iCloud message but I can't access it. Hope someone can help. Thanks, Lorna

You can only have one active iCloud account and one iTunes account. Are you by chance refering to email accounts defined in the mail app? If so, if one of the accounts (a non-iCloud account) is a POP account, then an email is usually sent to one device. Once sent, the email is deleted from the server, thus other devices never get copies. That's how POP works.
