Accessing mac mail on cell phone

I am able to access my gmail on my Verizon cell phone. I can navigate to the .mac website on my cell phone and can enter log in information but when I press log in I am given a malformed URL message and can get no further.
How can I check my mac mail on my cell phone? Is there a different url to type in for that?
Mary Beth

Thank you, the issue has been somewhat resolved in a different forum!

Looking for the best access to .mac mail from cell phone and PDA devices

Currently using Verizon, looking for best cell phone and/or PDA to easily access .mac mail (considering buying the LG VX 9800, does anyone use this phone w/success accessing their .mac email accounts?) Thanks.

Dear RBP,
Try posting your question in this forum area.
The one you're now in is for user feedback on the forums themselves and not for specific product issues. If you post in the ,Mac forum I linked, I'm sure you'll get a quick response.

I want to configure my samrtphone to access mac mail. I have two .mac accounts, one for me and one for mi wife and I would like to do the same as I do with exchange at work (realy works fine!). Is it possible?

Thanks

If your phone has a built in eMail client that supports POP or IMAP mail or can run a Java app client (J2ME/MIDP2) then that should be fine. Might depend on your contract with sprint if you can use internet services.
I use a SonyEricsson K750i to access .Mac and my company eMail. I can send email and even attach pictures from the camera if i need to. Typing longer messages with T9 support is not really funny, but works.

Suddenly can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail

Suddenly, I can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail (Version 2.1.1 (752.3)).
For quite a few years I have been using Apple Mail to access my .mac email. As of last Friday, Mail stopped working. Nothing has changed (accept for the installation of the latest OS X security upgrade - SecUpd2006-008Univ.pkg).
I can still access my .mac mail through the .mac web browser and I can still access it through SnapperMail on my Palm Treo 680. But, when I open Apple Mail on my MacBook, it does not do anything, just sits there. When I open the Activity Viewer window, 3 activities are going on:
1. Opening Mailbox
2. Synchronizing with Server (Connecting to...)
3. Synchronizing with Server (Synchronizing with...)
After a few minutes, the error triangle appears next to the Inbox and .Mac logos on the left hand panel.
I have tried Apple Mail from several locations (different ISP / WiFi / LAN) over several days but get the same problem.
Does anyone have ideas for a solution?
Regards
Peter

Let’s first make sure that the update is installed properly, and post back with your observations when done.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the update that appears to not have been installed properly. You may also need to reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with your computer:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

Can not access .mac mail thru shared internet connection

I own a powerbook G4.
I recently purchased a mac mini for home. It is connected to a cable modem via ethernet.
I am connecting the powerbook to the internet using internet sharing via airport thru the mini - no problems.
I am, however, unable to connect to my .mac mail from the powerbook.
The following message is displayed:
-There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account ".Mac Account" or try again.
The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "mail.mac.com" on port 993 timed out.
I am able to check mail from the mini.
What am I doing wrong?
It was working earlier, and it DOES work if I reverse the config and connect my powerbook to the cable modem ... weird.
Any help would be appreciated.

The server error encountered was: The connection to
the
server "mail.mac.com" on port 993 timed out.
Port 993 indicates Use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is
selected for the .Mac SMTP server which I didn't
believe is supported with a .Mac account and when
selected, I'm not sure why it is working when
connected direct to the Cable modem and not
otherwise.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the
Advanced tab for your .Mac account preferences,
deselect Use SSL and the incoming mail server port
will change from 993 to 143 which is the standard
incoming mail server port for a .Mac or IMAP type
account.
Still does not work.
Port 143 times out.
Both computers accessing the same .mac account - is this a problem?
All other aspects of the wireless network function. Just no email (in or out) on the powerbook connected via airport.
Reset both machines several times as well.
Thanks in advance ...

Trying for months: Issues accessing .Mac mail from desktop Mail app

I have a few Macs (eMac, iMac G5, 2-iMac G3s...). User since 85.
I signed up for .Mac family pack. Gave email accounts to my family members. .Mac mail can only be retrieved from ONE (iMac G3) of the Macs. The others register that there are X number of .Mac emails in the inbox, but when one clicks on the box, the pane that should display the list of emails is blank. Every few minutes, the chime shows the same X number of emails has arrived in the inbox, starting the cycle all over again.
I have check, double and triple checked the Mail configuration for each of these Macs and see no difference. In fact, when you login to .Mac it appears to configure the Mail account automatically.
The router settings for these Macs (like port forwarding, etc.) is identical, too.
Thanks for your help

From Mail Help:
"Setting up your email accounts
The first time you open Mail, it automatically sets up email accounts for you using the information from the .Mac pane of System Preferences and the Mail Setup Assistant. If no information is found, Mail guides you through the process of setting up a new account. You can create additional accounts at any time.
If you switch to Mail from another email application, you need to enter the account information from the other application in Mail. Before you begin, view the information in the other application, and write down the names of the incoming and outgoing mail servers, your account name and password, and whether it is a POP or IMAP account. If you have multiple accounts, get the information for each account.
To add an account:
Choose File > Add Account.
Choose your account type, such as POP or IMAP, from the Account Type pop-up menu and enter the information, based on your account type. If you aren't sure about some of the fields, check with your Internet service provider (ISP) or mail account provider.
General information: Enter a description of the account. The description is shown in the mailbox list. If you have multiple accounts, enter something that will help you distinguish this account from others, such as "Tom's work email." You must also specify the full name to be displayed in outgoing mail, such as Tom Clark, and the email address to use in the From field when you send messages. For a .Mac account, you must enter your .Mac user name and password.
Incoming Mail Server: Enter the server (typically a POP or IMAP server) where your email waits for you to retrieve it. For example, mail.example.com. Enter your user name and password for this mail server. If you specified an Exchange account, you must specify the Outlook Web Access Server.
Outgoing Mail Server: Enter the server (also known as an SMTP server) that sends your email to its destination. For example, smtp.example.com or relay.example.com. To see the server in use by each mail account, choose Edit Server List from the Outgoing Mail Server pop-up menu.
Further define the new account you have just created. Choose Mail > Preferences, click Accounts, and select the new account in the list.
In the Mailbox Behaviors pane, select options for storing and deleting drafts, sent mail, junk mail, and trash. The options are different for the different kinds of accounts.
In the Advanced pane, select options to enable the account, include the account when checking for new mail, to manage offline viewing, and other options.
A .Mac account is an IMAP account provided as part of Apple's .Mac services. To sign up for a .Mac account, open the .Mac pane of System Preferences and click Sign Up. You can also use a web browser to send and receive email with a .Mac account.
An Exchange account allows you to connect to your Exchange server via IMAP, and if you enter text in the Outlook Web Access Server field, Mail filters non-email related content from the server. (You can get the text you need to enter from your mail account provider.) For Exchange to work with Mail, Exchange administrators need to configure the Exchange server for IMAP access. Some system administrators may refer to an Outlook Web Access Server as an Internet Information Services (IIS) server.
For IMAP accounts, when you first connect to your mail server, all your mailboxes are automatically synchronized, so that the email messages on your computer are the same as those on the server.
To remove an account, select it in the account list and click the Delete button.

setting up email"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OR:
"About synchronizing email accounts and settings
There are two ways you can synchronize your email accounts and settings:
If you are using an IMAP account, all your messages remain on the server, so you can access them from multiple computers. Mail periodically synchronizes your IMAP mailboxes with those on the server, ensuring that mailboxes on your computer reflect actions taken while viewing mail on the server, such as marking messages as read, deleting messages, or moving messages between mailboxes. If "Keep copies of messages for offline viewing" (in the Advanced pane of the Accounts pane in Mail Preferences) is set to one of the options that stores copies of messages, Mail also downloads messages (and attachments, if that option is selected) from the server to your computer. Before using an IMAP account offline, synchronize the account so you know you're working offline with up-to-date messages.
If you have a .Mac account, you can use .Mac Sync to synchronize your account settings and your rules, signatures, and Smart Mailboxes across all of your Mac OS X x10.4 computers. To become a .Mac member, open System Preferences, click .Mac, and click the Learn More button. For more information about .Mac, visit the .Mac website at www.apple.com/dotmac/.

Archived Mac mail to android phone gmail

I need to copy some archived Mac Mail to my Android phone.
Is there a method for this?

nevermind, figured it out. d&d within Mac Mail from Archive to gMail.
though I wish I could figure a way to support the archive sync as I go.
when a message comes in and I move to a sub-box in Archive, I wish it would sync to the same sub-box in Android.

From .Mac Support...
About setting up other email programs
You can use any standard email program to read your .Mac Mail messages.
To set up other email programs:
Open your email program and set up an account that uses:
Your .Mac member name for the account name
Your .Mac password for the mail password
quot;mail.mac.com" for the POP or IMAP server
Your ISP's SMTP server for the outgoing mail server
If your email application supports authenticated SMTP, you can use "smtp.mac.com" as your SMTP server. This allows you to send mail from locations where you cannot use your ISP's SMTP server.
Mac OS X Mail supports authenticated SMTP and is set up to use smtp.mac.com for .Mac Mail accounts by default.
Note: Some ISPs restrict access to the TCP port (25) used by SMTP. If your ISP is blocking port 25, you can use your email application to change the port to 587 and try again. If you continue to have trouble sending mail using smtp.mac.com, switch back to your ISP's SMTP server.
For information on using a web browser instead of a desktop email program to access your .Mac Mail messages, search .Mac Help for "reading email."
Hope that helps.

What sytem is used for determining where the mac book or cell phone located? WEB? Cellphone towers?

I am fumbling thru for the first time using this system. I am interested in determining what system is used to determine the location of the iphone, macbook pro. Is it based on WEB comnecttivity or Cell phone tower connectivity?
I do not believe it is based on satillites. Is this true?
Thank you for your time and effort.

I believe that it also uses GPS (if it is a devices with GPS such as an iPhone or iPad with Cellular) which does involve satellites.

Can't access Yahoo mail on I-Phone 4S (IOS 7.0.4)

When I attempt to access my Yahoo e-mail, I continue to get the message: The user name or password for "apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com" is incorrect. How do I correct this error?

It just happen right after yahoo server down and I also just upgrade to 7.0.4.
I also try to follow previous discussion like delete yahoo account, clear safari cache and cookie but it's still not work.
Apple, PLEASE HELP!!!

Can no longer access .mac, mail, msn messenger etc on wireless network

have a wireless network in our house through an airport. but .mac login page does not load, mail will not access my email and things like msn messenger just do not login. does not work on either my macbook, imac g5 or the g5 tower. no idea what is wrong, could it be proxies or firewall stuff. just no idea.
please help.
will

This appears to be a network issue rather than a Mail issue. You should probably ask either in the Networking forum or in one of the AirPort forums.
As a first step, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.

Trying to access e-mail from my phone

I don't know what's been done recently with Verizon's remote websites, but it needs to be undone. Until very recently, I was able to check my e-mail by pulling up webmail.verizon.com on my phone's browser and signing in just as I would from a computer. Now, if I try that, it automatically redirects to m.verizon.com/PAMMobile/presignin.aspx, which tells me to "Please wait while we load your offers" AND NEVER MOVES AGAIN.
I've tried calling Verizon about this and gotten nowhere. The first time it happened, I spent literally an hour searching around the site (from my desktop computer) trying without success to find some way to report this.
When it happened again today, I decided to leave the browser open on the phone while I signed onto my computer and tried to find a way to report this (Oh, good, I have to pick a User ID for the forums now, what fun--and it can't be the one I already HAVE to access the site. Delightful.). The page has now been asking me to wait while it loads my offers for 25 minutes.
I don't WANT to wait while it loads whatever those offers are, I WANT TO ACCESS MY E-MAIL. When I'm trying to access it on my phone, it's because I'm either away from a computer or don't want the distractions that come with being online. I JUST WANT TO READ MY E-MAIL!
FIX THIS. FIX IT NOW.

The problem isn't with accessing my e-mail from a computer--webmail.verizon.net works just fine from my desktop at work, and I imagine it would work fine from my desktop at home as well. The problem is that when I try to access webmail.verizon.net from my (non-Verizon, 3G) phone, I get sent to this pre-signin page that instantly freezes. After I made my initial post (from my desktop computer), I left the phone on that page while I did other things on the computer and when I checked it again it was still "loading my offers" after TWO HOURS.
That is why in #2 I made the suggestion to use the email client built into your phone, assuming it has one, and I think pretty much every smart phone has an email client. You may have some perfectly valid reason for wanting to use a browser, but I don't understand it at this point.

I agree with Justin.
In regards to using the Email client in your phone. Mine is ATT 3G Iphone 4. When the iPhone client pulls up the Email, it acts almost like IMAP, where if the message is large, it only partially downloads so you can see what it is, and then it provides the option to download the rest. Which helps with your usage if you are concerned with your monthly usage. Not sure of your phone type. The webmail on the phone will more than likely consume much more of your monthly allotment. Just be sure to set the client to leave messages on the server. This way they will still be available for your mail client at home, or webmail at a later date.
If your phone does not have a mail app, depending on the OS, I would try to download one if possible. Anything web related on the phone will use more bandwidth to pull in the graphics. Save your bandwidth and use a mail application, where the mail system graphics reside on your phone.

Our company recently has changed our DNS settings to our network which has resulted in many of our iPhone users not being able to access Outlook mail on their phones. Any ideas out there?

Our company has recently changed our DNS settings for our network mail server, and upgraded our SBS to 2010 Microsoft Exchange. Since that change, most of our iPhone users have not been able to acquire e-mail from our mail server. We have three exceptions are 3GS and 4 phones. Any ideas???

Speak to your exchange & DNS administrators at your company.
It is likely a configuration issue on the server/network side. Event/IIS logs are key on your SBS.

When I had a similar problem with Thunderbird a couple of years ago, it was cured by changing the outgoing server port to 587. Ditto when I got a smartphone - the default port 25 didn't work, 587 does.
