I have set up 4 email accounts. Two are gmail and they show only old messages in sent folder - even when messages have been sent from this ipad.
I tried deleting and re-entering the accounts, but problem with sent folder still occurs
I found this in another discussion in the box on the right >>>>> More like this.
Substitute whatever your email account's name is where it states Comcast and see if this helps. The settings would be the same on an IPad as on an iPhone.
Go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>and select the Comcast account. From there look at the Outgoing Mail Server. It shoudl list the Comcast SMTP server. Touch that button and it will take you to another settings page for SMTP. It will show you the Primary SMTP server along with other SMTP servers. If the gmail server is listed there, then you can touch on it and turn it off. That should take care of it. The iPhone will try and use the SMTP server you have listed for a particular mail account, however, if that server is unavailable, it will take the next one on the SMTP list until it gets to one it can use.

How can I get my phone to get and send emails on my msn accounts? They appear on the list of emails when I click on the icon but they do not work. They useed towork fine. If I try to add an account it says Domain. Then acct name and password. I have tried lots of domain names but all it say is "Can not connect". Any ideas?
Hello riopeltravel, let's solve this mystery! What make & model phone do you have? Also, have you tried deleting the email account off of the phone and re-adding with the username and password? How long have the email accounts stopped working? Keep us posted!

Mail on iPad (and iPhone) shows only old emails
Hello.
I have migrated all my gmail emails into @me.com iCloud account. After this, on my mobile devices I can only see a few recent emails and a bunch of old emails (like the once I received in 2008 & 2009). Inbox is like this:
2012: 5/6 emails
2011: 20/25 emails
2010: 150 emails
2009: 500 emails
2008: 300 emails
Sent folder is correctly shown from the most recent sent to the oldest.
Mail on MacBook shows everything as it should be.
I hope someone of you could help me to understand what's wrong.
Many thanks in advance.Set up your email as an IMAP account.Your email provider must support IMAP for this to work.

I successfully imported messages from Opera Mail. Initially the Sent mailbox was not showing in Thunderbird. A quick removal and fresh installation solved that, but Thunderbird does not save the sent messages to the Sent box, where the imported Opera Mail messages are stored. Even though messages are not saved, they are sent correctly. The image attached shows the error message.
Probably a name-confuse If you store sent on mailserver it has to have the right name. (subscribe)
You could set up under Account settings / copies and folders (maps) Sent pointing to the right local folder. -
On my Macbook Pro running Lion - trying to create a new ITunes account and the Agree button on the Terms and condition page will not come active even after checking the box any ideas
There isn't a way - at least not that I have found. I'm having an issue with this as well - seems like a shoddy sort of business practice. I refuse to enter my credit card number to download a FREE app. I'm encouraging the user community that has a problem with this to please post your opinion as well. I know this is a use community, but I have to think that Apple will take notice when an issue gets a lot of attention. Apple needs to hear your voice.

Setting up multiple email accounts on multiple .mac accounts
There are three of us in the household, all with our own .mac accounts (created off of one master account) and our own usernames on this computer. I have set up multiple email accounts and am having trouble getting those accounts organized into Mail. Can I set it up such that each user can access his/her email when logged into his/her respective area on this mac? For example, I want to be able to log in as myself and read my email, then let my wife log into her area and read her email. I have tried and really messed it up. We can read mail but not send it. When i try to send a message pops up informing me that "cannot send message using the server (server name here). Try again later."
Can I set it up such that each user can access his/her email when

into her area and read her email.
Yes and this is how it should be done with each user's email account only created in Mail under their computer login account so each user's email along with all other data is kept separate and protected in their own home folder/directory. Of course this only works when disabling automatic login.
Who is your ISP used for connecting to the internet and is each user/family member also accessing an email account that is provided by your ISP?
Something to try first and this must be done with the .Mac SMTP server in Mail for each user's login account.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for the .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below.
Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting. -

I have two ipods in my house that were set up under the same email. I have since assigned two different emails. How can I change the game center account so that is not shared by both ipods because it is for two different users and they are not happy?
By "game center account", do you mean Apple ID?
If so, you can change it.
1. Tap settings and navigate to iTunes and App Stores
2. Tap "Apple ID" and then tap "Sign Out"
3. Log in with a different ID. -
I have the computer that holds my itunes library. However, I no longer have access to the email account (and therefore apple account) it was set up with so can't sync/update etc. How can I transfer the library to my new apple id? Any help gratefully received as searched the internet but can't find the answer!
Have ipod touch 4th gen, ipod touch 5th gen and ipod nano 7th gen all to sync to library.Hi Stillme,
You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another. You need to go into the old Apple ID and change it to the new email address instead of using a new Apple ID altogether.
Apple - My Apple ID
If you can't remember the password to the old ID, then click on Reset your Password, and answer the Security Questions. If you can't remember the Security Questions, contact iTunes Support and have them reset:
APPLE ID SECURITY CONTACT NUMBERS
Once you get into your old account, Edit the Apple ID to your new email address. Before you will be able to do that you are going to have to change the email address on the new Apple ID to something else.
Cheers,

I am new to iPad and have set up my mail account but it will not let me open the in box. Any suggestions
How did you set it up - manually in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , or by syncing via your computer's iTunes ? And what happens when you then try to open the Mail app ?
There is some help on setting up email accounts in the iPad manual which can be downloaded from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad -
I have the iPhone 4s. I set up my email account and emails come in but I cant retrieve them.
Hi,
In Messages or iChat go to the App Menu > Preferences > Accounts
On the left is the list of Accounts that are set up.
Everyone gets Bonjour (Although by default it is not Active).
Highlight the Bonjour Account
On the right there is a Box that says "Enable this Account" which probably has a tick in it.
Select it to remove the tick.
This will turn Off the Bonjour Account.
The List may also contain any @me.com name you have set up.
This can be used in Messages as the ID for iMessages
It is also a Valid AIM screen Name.
It would helps if we knew which version of iChat and the OS you are using as there are some changes that occur
An iCloud @me.com name will not work in iChat 5 or earlier due to the checks Apple has in iChat 6 (and Messages) which iChat 5 does not do.
To also work as a Valid Screen Name the password for your @Me.com name has to be 16 characters or less (AIM server limit)

My iphone does not connect to my email provider and fetch my email. I have been getting emall ok previously, this occurred when I changed my password on my email account. I have "set up a new account" but get the message "server is unavailable". I have tried several things but to no avail. Does anyone have the solution?
ThanksDid you ever fix this problem? The same thing happened when I just changed my kids passwords and now can't access their mail on their iPods or my iPad but I use the same email provider and mine is fine however I did not change my password. If you fixed it how did you?
