Basic question: will email sync with icloud?

will my email sync?
I don't understand what it means when it tell me that when you switch to icloud your mail accounts won't sync.  Please explain?

Yes it will Linda,
     When .mac/mobile Me gets moved (when you make the choice to do so) to the new iCloud servers, your mail will be as you expect.
     Mobile Me & .Mac used to synch mail 'account info' and/or mail 'rules' but it never synched the actual e-Mail itself. These two settings now are not explicitly backed up to iCloud like they used to be.
     You lose no mail or accounts, but you do not have the ability to re-synch a new Mac or a re-built Mac on the same account on the way that you used to be able to do. However, you probably will never need to because iCloud is now the master computer for mail operations—so to speak. And when you register a new computer or iDevice on iCloud mail will come along with it if you so choose.

  • ICal will not sync with iCloud

  • ICloud Calendar will not sync with iCloud

    I am at a complete loss here.  I have my work MBA running Yosemite and connected to my iCloud account.  I also have a personal MBP, iPhone and iPad, all running the latest OS and Patch, all connected to my iCloud account.
    For 98% of it, it works and syncs perfectly.  Except for the calendar on my MBA.  Calendar works and syncs perfectly everywhere else, MBA works perfectly with iMessage, FaceTime, Contacts, Keychain, etc, etc, etc.
    Basic troubleshooting I have performed:
    Rebooted MBA (obviously)
    Attempted to remove calendars from syncing with my iCloud account (unsuccessful) - will not remove calendars.
    Attempted to remove entire iCloud account from MBA (unsuccessful)
    i have signed out everywhere on my MBA, when I go to System Preferences > iCloud and attempt to sign out, it fails.
    When I go to Internet Accounts, iCloud keeps coming back as "INACTIVE" with nothing checked.
    When I go through all the apps, Calendar is the only one that shows the iCloud data (iMessage shows me as signed out, same with App Store, iTunes, FaceTime, Contacts, etc)
    Rebooted MBA multiple times throughout the process, to no avail or difference
    Performed a repair install of Yosemite through the recovery console
    After repair install, iCloud calendars still show up, even though my iCloud account under System Preferences shows me as signed out
    After repair install, signed back into iCloud to see if I could re-sync calendarsiCloud shows me as signed in and Calendars as successfully setup
    Upon launching Calendars, i get the spinning wheel in the top left of my calendar app and new calendar items created on the MBA do not sync with iCloud (website or other connected devices)
    Created new calendar item on other devices as well as iCloud website, calendar item never shows up on MBA
    So, aside from a complete format of the hard drive, can anyone think of any options I haven't tried?  Or some way to completely reset one app (such as Calendar)

    Needed to add some clarification here:
    iCloud shows me as signed in, but Calendars are NOT checked
    Internet Accounts shows Calendars as syncing

  • MacBook Air will not sync with icloud

    my macbook air will not sync with my icloud account.
    I have tried reseting the i cloud preferences and have trashed the calender caches
    still does not sync.

    If you haven't already done so, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac and go back and sign back in.  This deletes the iCloud account and iCloud data (if any) from your Mac but not from iCloud.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.

  • Notes will not sync with iCloud?

    OK, so I've been using the developer releases of ML for some time. During that time, even after the GM release, Notes would not sync with iCloud. I thought that the problem would be resolved once ML was released, but I still keep receiving an error when I try to turn on Notes for iCloud.
    Is anyone else having this problem? Can you help me with a solution?
    Thanks,
    Clinton

    I've tried to - for months - but on my Mac, I keep getting this message:

  • Calender will not sync with icloud

    In system prefs / iCloud I can see that something is wrong. I have marked the calender&reminders choice but its grey (not black as it should be) and it says "setting up". And there we are. Nothing happens. icloud works fine between iphone and Icloud. But something is wrong between mac book (mountain lion) - icloud. I have tried the tips i can find on the support page. Uirn things on and of etc. But nothing changes.
    I would be glad if someone out there could help me?!

    You might try the following:
    1. Sign out of your account
    (If you are unable to do this because System Preferences has frozen, Force Quit System Preferences and try again)
    2. When prompted, opt to delete, contacts, calendars etc from your Mac.
    (You are only deleting this data from your Mac, not from iCloud, the data will be reinstated when you log back in. If you need to check that the data is in iCloud before deleting it go to iCloud.com and check each section for data)
    3. Having logged out, check that the iCloud accounts along with their data have disappeared from the Mail, Address Book and iCal Applications.
    (If necessary, delete the iCloud accounts from each of these application separately from each Applications Preferences)
    4. At this point it may be worth trying to log into iCloud from the System Preferences iCloud settings again, if this works, all well and good, if it doesn't continue to step 5.
    5. Open your User Library folder in the Finder. (When in the Finder, go to the Go menu, hold down the option key (alt) and choose Library when it appears in the Go menu)
    6. Navigate to Library > Application Support > iCloud and drag the iCloud folder to your desktop. (This action only copies the folder and will provide you with a back up)
    7. Select the iCloud folder again in Library > Application Support and drag it to the trash, enter your administrators password when prompted.
    8. Restart your computer.
    9. You should now be able to enter your ID and Password in system Preferences > iCloud and log into your account. Check the services you wish to use and once you are satisfied it's working as it should, trash the iCloud folder you copied to your desktop earlier.

    I am experiencing the same problem.  The error message appears when iCal is open.  The iPod (ios 6.1.3) and iPad (ios 7.0.2) seem to play well with each other and when I enter an event on either one it pushes to my iMac (10.8.5).   But when I enter an event on the iMac it does not push it to the devices.  This message pops up repeatedly on the imac:
    The server responded with an error.

  • Mail will not sync with ICloud

    Someone sent me an address book export (.abbu). When I opened the file it says "Do you want to replace "Contacts" by this file. Said YES !
    Big mistake !!!
    Every thing has been erased and my address book is now...empty !
    Luckily I have everything on ICloud, so piece of cake
    but no it's not
    Even though I re-created the ICould identiy on my Address book, it never shows
    no matter how many times I tried
    the IClould account doesn't apprear, only my local account which, of course, is EMPTY
    Any ideas ?
    thx
    btw: all my contacts are on ICloud and appear fine on my MacBook

    Did you try going to System Preferences>iCloud, uncheck Contacts, choose Delete from Mac (they will still be in iCloud), then restart your Mac and go back and check Contacts again in System Preferences>iCloud?

  • Outlook 2010 will not sync with iCloud after initial sync

    Hi guys, the basic summary is that after upgrading from a mobile me account to icloud (using a me.com account), I was able to sync everything from Outlook to the customer's iPhone but anything created after that would not sync. I tried creating a contact, calendar item, and other calendar items, none of which showed up either way (outlook to phone and vice versa).
    Here are all the details that may be needed to assist with this question (and thank you!)
    The account was upgraded from mobileme to iCloud, then outlook was upgraded from 2003 to 2010.
    OS is Windows 7 64 bit
    Outlook has 2 data files which hold all the contacts/calendars/tasks.
    I had to add the me.com email to outlook so that it would perform the initial sync.
    After the initial sync, all calendars, contacts, etc were moved to deleted items (which I think may be normal). I just moved them back to one of the pst files.
    At this point, creating an item in any calendar, or creating a contact does not result in that contact/calendar entry showing up on the iphone (or vice versa).
    Outlook does not show "icloud" calendar, only the calendars I previously created, but the iPhone says "All iCloud Calendars" and they list the calendars that we created in outlook.
    Customer says it synced fine when he used mobile me back in the day, and then it stopped so we had to upgrade to iCloud. Any ideas? =/ I spent over an hour trying to figure this one out, even had some brief apple tech help.
    Thank you SO much for your help. I'd LOVE to be able to get this fixed, otherwise I need to start looking into alternatives for syncing iphone with outlook 2010

  • IPad 2 iOS 5 Pages will not sync with iCloud

    I have my iPad 2 fully updated [iOS 5, latest pages update] and I turned on the options for using iCloud; however, when I go into pages, all I see are a bunch of up arrows in the upper right corner of each document and nothing is syncing.  I have the iCloud setting for doc sync turned "on" and the Pages option to use iCloud turned "on." 
    It has been over 10 hours since I turned all this on, I connected my iPad to a power source [its connected to a good WiFi] and went to bed - its still not synced. 
    I have migrated my Mobile Me account over to iCloud, and I click on the 'iWorks" and it only gives me the Giraffe and the "Use Pages with iOS" but nothing will change. 
    Thoughts? Is it just too soon executus? [sorry bad reference].  It looks so very exciting! I cannot wait for my iPad to live sync through pages!  I've been using dropbox and other word processing apps for so long >< I cant wait to be able to rely solely on pages!!!
    <3

    Did you set up iCloud on the iPad in the settings?
    I set up my iCloud account on my iPad and on iCloud.com and updated Pages this morning and my documents uploaded right away. The up arrow indicates that the documents are uploading or ready to upload - at least that's what I assumed.
    Try quitting pages and restarting your iPad your iPad - you might as well restart the Mac while you are at it - and then try it again.
    You did update Pages so if you did this should work.
    To quit Pages - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close Pages by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the Pages app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
