Would using a Homekit Hub mean devices are less likely to give a "no response" message? Asking for a friend...

I had a wall switch that used to do that a few years back. I don't know if it was switch firmware updates or updates to HK, but I don't see them anymore. HK ecosystem has stabilized for me, hoping that's across the board as vendors & Apple work w/ the APIs.

original Apple ID is a .mac or .me address, you can't change your Apple ID or email. I clicked the edit button as suggested but I can't change my email. I would love to get rid of the .mac and .me addresses and just use the .icloud address but it won't allow me too. Any suggestions?

You shouldn't need to. If you want @icloud.com instead then just use it. @icloud, @mac and @me are interchangeable. My email address is @me.com which I prefer because its shorter, but using @icloud.com or someone emailing me with that will still work the same. This only applies to those who used to be with iTools and MobileMe.
