How to set up an email account on iPad3 -

a question on how to set up an email account on iPad3 - In Settings - Mail - it allows me to choose a name and submit but then it says "can't open mail, try later". I use my apple iD to open iCloud.com on my computer, but can't access mail from there either.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

How to set up multiple email accounts?

I need to set up additional email accounts on my iphone and can't figure out how to do that. I set up an AOL account but want to add one from my personal website. All it show is my AOL account and doesn't give me an option to add another email address.

Go to settings, go to mail, then add account

How to set up an email account on one only one machine

I need to be able to set up an email account on only one machine. I know I can disable the account on other machines, but that's not what I want. I don't want the email account to appear in the account list on my other machines, even if it is disabled. I don't want my other machines to know about the account at all.
How do I set up my accounts so that the email account shows up on only one machine?

Perhaps some pictures would help explain.
If in Mail I right click the account I get this window.
I want to remove the account "B" from this computer. I select it and click "-" and am taken to "Internet Accounts" in "Settings"
There I see this.
If I now click "-", I get the following choices.
Now, I don't want "Remove From All", as I would like to keep the account on my other computer. So I click "Turn Off Account" which results in this
The account is inactive, but is still in the list of accounts. I want to remove it from the list of accounts (without removing it from the other computer.)
How do I do that?

How to set a new email account for iCloud?

How set a new email account for iCloud?

There are two separate things you can do.
You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account, and if it has @mac.com or @me.com versions these cannot be reinstated once deleted.
More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
Or if you want a completely separate account you will have to create a new iCloud account and sign into it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars. Note that any one device can create only three iCloud accounts.

How to set up an email account?

I would like to have an email account [email protected]
How's that possible?
Right now, my email is @gmail.com and also Apple ID is [email protected] Can I create an email account to iCloud and how? And also, can I change my Apple ID [email protected] or something?

Sign in with your Apple ID in System Preferences>iCloud and check Mail in the checklist there. You will be asked to create an @icloud.com address. You can't make this address your Apple ID.

E52 - How to set the edefault email account used w...

Had my E52 for a few days and it;s a great phone. I've had the same issues as others with email setup but have worked my way through it.
At the moment I have a GMail private account working all OK and a mail for exchange account configured for Gmail so my calendar items will sync, that works fine too.
The issue I have is when I hold down the messaging key on the keypad to start a new email I get the error "unable to complete command".
By testing I have found that this occurs because the phone is trying to open up a new email from within the exchange account, but I want it to default to my gmail account which works fine for sending.
How can I make the default account for sending my Gmail and not exchange, the options for the shortcut key only specificy "email" and does not allow you to specify which account.
Thanks

I've resolved this.
Settings > Email Key Settings > Google Mail
Email key works fine now.
This phone is so good for the money.

How to Set UP an Email Account with kpn as Service provider

I am struggling to creat an Email Account on iPad 2 Even After following all advice given. What else could I try?

Are those emails in the server? If you've already downloaded them to your computer they might be gone, you'd have to check the settings for mail. Your iPad can only download that which is there.

How can I set up 2 email accounts in Mail

It's me again.
I'm trying to set up Mail 2.1.3. in 10.4.11. I have 2 email accounts. I can enter one just fine but it won't take another. When I try, it says that I "already have a POP account". How do I set up 2 email accounts? I see where I can enter the 2 email addresses by separating them by a comma. But the 2 addresses have different passwords and the password box takes only one password at a time. Any ideas?

It's hard for me to tell by what has been written so far, but it may be referring to what you are entering for the account description. That is, in Mail Prefs > Accounts > Acct Info, for each account it has several entries: Acct Type (that you can't change), Description, email address, full name. If the first account's description is POP, then make the second account's description POP2. I use terms like, "home", "work", and "school" for my accounts' descriptions.
If this is not what is going on, please write down every step you do, and every entry you make, as you try to configure your second email account and post it back here. Naturally, do NOT disclose your actual email address(es) or mail account login name or its password to us here.

How do I set up my email account on my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.2 so that the emails are downloaded to my computer and removed from the ISP server?

how do I set up my email account on my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.2 so that the emails are downloaded to my computer and removed from the ISP server?

When setting up the email using Apple 'Mail' (version 8.2 (2070.6)) I do not get an option to set up my email as using POP. I can go to Outlook from Microsoft and I get a chance to set my mail up using POP, however I would prefer to use the Apple supplied 'Mail' email programme as I'm using Office 365 and may not want to continue the subscription sometime in the future.
Any advice on setting Mail to POP would be appreciated. A not so Happy Wombat.

You can go into settings, mail, contacts and calendars, and set your mail to only download the last 50.
When you actually set upthe account, you can go into any available advanced settings and see if that can be set to new mail only. Unfortunately, every mail provider had slightly different things they'll allow you to tweak, so you just have to play to see what you can do.
For example, when I set up my Yahoo, I have different things I can tweak than I do on my Hotmail account, so some accounts allow more ability to tweak than others.
