HT2500 How does one set up an .mac mail account?

One of our MSN Hotmail accounts has been hacked, and a friend (who has an Apple .mac account) has suggested that we should be using .mac mail accounts but I cannot find out how to set one up. Do I have to go down to the Apple store to find out or . . . . I must be able to do this online?

Sign up for iCloud or use a service such as Gmail.

    M Parker, 
    Yes, since you are trying to keep things separate, that is exactly what you would do.

    You can't create an iCloud account on a PC. You must create the account on a Mac running Lion or newer, or an IOS device.

    How do I set up an e-mail account to go with iPhoto?

    Applications > Mail
    If you haven't set up a mail account, it will probably ask you if you want to set one up, but here's how I do it.
    Press command-, and that will take you to preferences.
    Up near the top click the "Accounts" tab
    Click the plus button that is located at the lower left corner.
    Enter your name, email address, and password.
    Click enter then click continue
    Set the account type to POP or IMAP. Whichever one you want is fine as long as it works with your email service.
    Don't change the next security settings. Click continue.
    Enter something for the description. Make sure that the "Use Athentication" checkbox is checked. Enter your password and click continue.
    Click continue you might have to go through one of the security settings again. Click continue.
    An account summary will come up. Click "Take account online". Then click create.
    You have added your account to Mail.

    In Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab>Account Information tab - from the 'Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP):' drop-down menu select 'Edit SMTP Server List...', choose the server you want to edit from those listed, click on the Advanced tab. Does that give you the option you're after?

  • How do I set up a new mail account on my iMac?

    Hello everyone,
    I think I used to have a Mail account however I could not remember the password when I tried to turn it on. I decided to delete the account completely and to start again. How do I set up a new mail account with a new email address and a new password??
    I can see how you create a new mail account but it then asks for an email and password so that doesn't help. I really didn't think it would be a hassle!
    Thanks,
    W

    You first need to set up a new User Name and Password with your Internet Service Provider (ISP); that is, whoever provides you with Internet access, such as Comcast, AT&T, etc in the US.  Alternately you can go on the Internet and set up a new email Account with a new User Name and Password with a public company such as Google's "Gmail" or Microsoft's "Hotmail".  Once you have set up your new Account with them, THEN you enter that information into Apple's "Mail" for it to send and receive emails for your new outside Account.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I start using my mac mail account on my ipad?

    How do I start using my mac mail account in my ipad?

    No error messages or anything? If your OE is still running and is using POP, there won't be any email for you to retrieve with your iPad because OE has downloaded the email to your computer. To sync email between your computer and your iPad you need to use IMAP settings on both your computer and iPad, not POP.

    Hello there and welcome to the community,
    1) on the old account : copy the Playlist Link (Right click on the title)
    2) Paste it on your web browser
    3) open your new account.
    4) Play the playlist in your browser
    5) Playlist will open also in your Spotify desktop
    6) Subscribe to the playlist. That will save the playlist on the folder PLAYLISTS (on left side)
    7) Always on your new account, create a new playlist with the same title if you want
    8) Copy all the tracks from the old playlist to the new one
    9) Delete the old playlist
    10) Now you have a playlist with your new user name as creator
     

  • I set up my mac mail account on the computer using all the same info as the phone but I still can't get mac mail on the computer.

    Ever since icloud came out my desktop has been a traffic jam of pop ups. Apple Passwords are recognized in one app but rejected in another. I'm never able to set up my .mac mail it just won't receive.
    The new iphoto is a complicated mess. Once you email photos to a friend you are stuck in the mail portion and have to close out to get out.

  • How does one set up a file sharing password?

    Hi,
    My wife and I use the same Airport Extreme station to access the Internet and each other’s machine. Every time one of us wants to connect to the other machine via AFP, a dialog box springs up that has radio buttons, giving the choice of ‘Registered User’ or ‘Guest.’
    Where, on the serving computer, can one set up a ‘registered user’ with a password? Would doing so allow the registered user a wider access than only the ‘Drop Box?’
    Thanks,
    Klaus

    "Registered user", in effect, means "OS X user on the machine being shared". So, you could, right now, click on "registered user" and log in to your wife's Mac using her login details (and vice versa). If you log in as a user, as opposed to a guest, you get access to that user's entire home folder. If that user is also an administrator, you get access to the whole system drive.
    Guests actually have access to the "Public" folders in the system (which includes the Drop Box).

  • How does one set the DPI when resizing images in Bridge?

    I am sure I am missing something here (so excuse me if its a simple answer) but I am used to using Photo Mechanic and there you are able to set lots of variables while resizing.  I don't understand this Bridge resizing window when using Batch Processing thru Photoshop. 
    -There are two boxes for sizing.  If you put the same dimension in both does it just set the longest dimension to that size?
    -What if I want say a 10x10 inch image at 72 DPI for web use as opposed to a 10 x10 inch image at 300 DPI for printing purposes, where does one enter that info?
    Thanks,
    Joshua

    You don't "resize" anything in Bridge, nor does it set PPI, pixels per inch—and most certainly NOT "DPI" (Dots [of ink] Per Inch) which is exclusively a feature of the printer.
    Bridge is just a File Browser.  It used to be called simply the Photoshop File Browser".  It doesn't open, edit, manipulate resize or even save anything.
    It merely hands the file(s) over to the appropriate application, whether that be Photoshop, adobe Camera Raw, Illustrator, InDesign or even MS Word.

    Again, you mean PPI in both instances there.
    You enter that in whatever application you're sending the image from Bridge.
    For instance in Photoshop:

    My mac book pro with retina display is operating on OS X Version 10.9.2 and it was built in 12/2012.  How do I set a password at start-up?  The answers I find on line are for older mac book pros and haven't helped me.  Thanks in advance.

    Have you tried going to System Preferences > Users and Groups and set a password for each user on the system?
    Did you setup this MacBook Pro out of the box without any user accounts or passwords?
