All Email seems slow since 4S (not just iCloud mail)

Ever since I upgraded from my 4 to a 4s all my email seems slow.
This includes my former mobileme email as well as an exchange server from work.
For example right now I am looking at an email on my phone that shows as "new" even through I deleted the email from my computer 2 hours ago via mail.app and exchange. I also have sent myself email at this address from my phone and it shows no problem going through but never show up in the other account.
mobileMe has a smiliar problem but it sometimes doesn't even want to send. I have no confidence I am getting all my emails into my mobile me account. I know at least one person said they got an invalid address when using my @mac.com address, but others seem to have worked fine.
Anyone else having this issue?

Solved my problem by loging out from iTunes store and loging back in...

Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. Any help?

Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. The reports of the app unexpectedly closing each time, automatically went to Apple, but I am not sure what happens with them then. Does anyone know how to help me with this? We live in a very isolated region so rely on internet help. Thanks

I also managed to read a few other discussions about Pages and files not being able to open. I actually went to the last back-up and restored the computer from that and everything seemed to work ok again, which is great!...advice from another discussion I think you may have been involved in PeterB. Thanks for the advice...also this advice, as I will make a note of trying to open using the Shift key if it happens again and see what happens...might be an easier first option than restoring from a back-up. Thans heaps for the help!
I was interested to read some of the other discussions where it was stated that Pages '09 seems to be a better option to use. I have both installed, so I will lkeep this in mind. Thanks heaps!

How do I add actual email accounts to home screen-not just HUB?

How do I add actual email accounts to home screen-not just HUB? Can anyone give me the steps?

Essentially the Hub area is a home screen dedicated to your communication. Tap on the lower left icon and each of your messaging sections has its own dedicated 'icon.' As JC mentioned, it is new and it may take a while to get used to it.. but once you do it really is a great way to deal with the unified messaging idea and it also allows you to break down what you are looking at very quickly. Just need to learn a few new tricks. I've been on the Z for just over 3 months now and I could never go back...

How can I retrieve all the lost data?? Please help!!

My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes. I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need. It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

Hi ccharat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

HT4859 My Apple ID is my AOL email address. Since I set up iCloud & another email address, I only have an Inbox. I kept getting a IMAP error. How do I restore to a previous iCloud backup before this happened?

My Apple ID is my AOL email address. Since I set up iCloud & another email address, I only have an Inbox. I kept getting a IMAP error. How do I restore to a previous iCloud backup before this happened?

It may be that the process you used to change the iCloud ID created these issues. What I would suggest you do is the following:
If you have any photo stream photos on your device that you want to keep, save them to your camera roll by opening your photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.
Go to icloud.com on your computer, sign into your iCloud account and check to confirm that your data is all there.
Assuming your data is on icloud.com, go to Settings>iCloud on your device, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted. This will only delete the account and your synced data from your device but not from iCloud. Your data will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.
Go to Settings>iCloud, sign back in with the correct iCloud ID and password and turn your iCloud data syncing preferences back on. This will sync your iCoud data back to your device and recreate your iCloud email account.
Try your Mail again and see if it works properly now.

Some (not all) emails disappearing / deleting themselves from folders in the Mail app on iPhone 4S

I am having an issue with some of my emails disappearing on my iPhone 4S and I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar issues and might offer a solution? I have three email accounts on my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 (of which include my iCloud @mac.com and Yahoo!) and all are set up as IMAP so that I can be sure both devices remain in sync at all times. The issue occurs when I go into any of my archive email folders, in any one of my three email accounts and let the iPhone sync with the server so that it is up-to-date. Sometimes - not everytime - I will watch as one of my most recent emails that is cached on the phone suddenly vanishes as it pulls down the rest of the emails archived in that folder. As soon as that email vanishes, it will then automatically remove it from the server (being that it is IMAP) and that email is then gone for good. It has not been moved to trash or any other folder because I can subsequently log into Yahoo! mail for instance and do a complete search for it and it won't find it at all. At first I thought it was my fat thumb (!!!) that had acidentally hit delete on the email but it is happening around twice a week and it has only happened since getting my iPhone 4S. I have contacted Apple support by phone and they suggested completely wiping the phone and restoring from backup, of which I have done. I have changed various settings such as showing 50 recent messages rather than 1000, turing on "organize messages by thread" and "ask before deleting" and trying that for a week but none of that has helped. I have a feeling this is an iOS5 issue rather than a hardware issue because my iPad 2 has started to do the same thing and it never did it before I upgraded to iOS5. Nor did my old iPhone 3GS that I had for two years. I am losing important emails and I'm getting to the stage of thinking about never opening the Mail app on either device for fear of losing any more important emails. I'm considering resorting to logging into Yahoo! and iCloud webmail via Safari instead which is a bit of a pain. Very sorry for the long message but thought i'd best be as thorough as possible. If any of you guys have had similar issues, or if you have any suggestions please feel free to chime in. Many thanks.

Thanks to everyone for their replies - I thought that it was just me with this issue but clearly not. Also thank you to Mil_Prep and S2Linda's suggestions, unfortunately all three of my email accounts do not have a "Mail Days To Sync" option - I believe that this option only appears in Mail settings if the account is an exchange email account. Even if I was able to adjust the time period of emails to sync, I don't think that it would help because the email(s) that are going missing can be as recent as one day old, leaving all my earlier emails in the same folder intact - some of which can go back to the year 2002 for instance. I am still convinced that it is a bug with headers in iOS5. Last week I even had a related problem where I had a new email merge with an old email. The senders email address, subject title and date remained the same but the body of the text was replaced with an old email from 2006! Very odd....

All emails pushes to Iphone5 and the online iCloud, but certain e-mails won't push to iPad.

Recently I did some switching around of my e-mails. I have three Gmail accounts, forwarded to a fourth Gmail account. This fourth Gmail account forwards all emails to Apple ID#1, and I have another Apple ID (ID#2), which I forward back to Apple ID#1. So in essence, all 5 e-mail accounts gets forwarded to apple ID#1.
A situation occurred to me this morning that concerns me. I have an iPhone5, and the iCloud webpage up and running. At this particular point in time I was using my iPad2, and noticed that my iPhone5 and the iCloud webpage on my Windows 7 Laptop received an e-mail, where it immeidatley made all sorts of chimes and bells annoucing the new e-mail. I expected it to occur on my iPad where several minutes passed and still nothing. So I opened the e-mal client on the iPad2 and and it immediately refreshed my email, and still nothing, but it did update an existing email that I had starred as VIP while in the online iCloud earlier. I didn't delete the e-mail from any of the e-mail clients just to make sure it had time to push to each device. I checked all settings on my iPad and this all worked like a charm before I went to bed last night.
These are my personal and home business related emails, so I must get these to pay my bills.
Q:   Is there a history of iCloud not pushing to some or all devices?
Q:   Should I revert back to Gmail for more stability until Apple can get it together?
Q:   Is there anything I can do to guarantee I get e-mails pushed to ALL my devices (iPhone5, iPad2, Online Based iCloud, and a 27" iMac (buying next week))?

Having received an e-mail after this posting, it correctly pushed to all devices.
Unfortunately, I got an expected e-mail from Craigslist to my primary Gmail account, which correctly forwarded to Apple ID#1, which correctly pushed to my iPad2, and to my iPhone5, but not to my online iCloud service on my Windows 7 Based Laptop. As I write this, I'm still trying to refresh the page, and still, no e-mail. There never is or becomes a record of it on the random device it won't push to, as I still don't have that e-mail on my iPad from this morning.
Let me rephrase the questions into one question:
Q: Why am I not getting ALL e-mails to ALL devices ALL the time? Instead I'm getting ALL e-mails to SOME devices (random to which one) ALL of the time?
(I'm not yelling in CAPS, I'm just trying to point out the key words in my question.)
If this keeps up, I'm going to have no choice but to revert back to Google, even when I buy my new iMac next week. I print business cards for myself next week, and if I can't commit my e-mail address to apple 100%, I will have no other choice but to avoid Apple e-mail clients now, and in the future unless I want to change my address, which clients are reluctant to update as it is. So as far as I see it, my address can never change once established.

I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

I Changed my ISP and therefore changed my email address, which caused me to change my appleID. I had no problems making the changes to my appleID but now I am having problems with iCloud. My old ID is still showing as my iCloud ID and I can not see where or how to change this. I keep getting an annoying pop up box to enter the password for my OLD appleID as well as error messages that I can't back up to iCloud.
CAn someone please tell me how I can fix this so my iCloud works.
THank you!!!!!

Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

Emails with animated pictures are not animated in Mail 4.2 in Snow Leopold.

Animated pictures in Mail 2.1.3 in Tiger, are not animated in Mail 4.2 in Snow Leopold. Any solution?

You could try opening the message in a different email client, such as Balzac, GNUMail, Thunderbird, GyazMail, or Opera Mail.

SINCE SIGNING UP FOR ICLOUD MAIL I HAVE LOST ACCESS TO MY AOL ACCOUNTS. HOW DO I GET OFF ICLOUD MAIL? IT DOES NOT WORK.

I SIGNED UP FOR ICLOUD MAIL LAST NIGHT. TODAY I CANNOT OPEN AOL MAIL ON EITHER MY IMAC 20" OR MY MACBOOK PRO. CLEARLY ICLOUD IS A LOSER. HOW DO I DELETE ICLOUD MAIL?

iCloud should have no affect on any other mail accounts on your computer, especially 2 different computers. Are you sure AOL isn't down?
But if you believe it is affecting your AOL accounts, open Accounts tab in System Preferences and select the iCloud account uncheck mail and any other features you are using with iCloud. If you are using no iCloud features, sign out of iCloud completely. It will remove any iCloud email account from Mail.

Since I updated to iCloud, Mail on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 has been unable to connect to MobileMe more than once or twice per day. Mail on my iPhone 4 has no problems. What's wrong?

Since I updated to iCloud, (which may or may not be related) Mail on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 has been unable to connect to MobileMe more than once or twice per day. Mail on my iPhone 4 and my old iMac has no problems. When there is no service a yellow warning triangle appears adjacent to the Inbox and Connection Doctor reports,"Trying to log into this MobileMe IMAP account failed. Verify that username and password are correct." Since it does fetch Mail from time to time they cannot be wrong.... can they? Should I update to 10.7 and if so what does that entail?

You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Snow Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

The situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard is described in detail here:

Lion Needed To Access Just iCloud Mail?

Hello-
I am starting the transition from MobileMe to iCloud. This is mainly for Mail to start. To use iCloud mail, do I have to have Lion? Or can I just use standard Apple Mail client (or any mail client for that matter)?
I know Lion is needed for Contact and Calendar syncing, but is it needed for just mail? The transition overview page says that Lion is required.
BTW, I know others have said this, this transition is very poorly executed. I don't want to go to Lion and my current data syncing works well. Shame on you Apple >:| for forcing me to 'downgrade' to Lion.
Thanks!
PS- Sorry for dup posts... didn't mean to post other in mobileme.

You can use any mail client that supports Imap, Mac Mail on Snow Leopard is one example.

If I print an email after it's sent, it prints out Subj, from,date,to and text info. I want to print all this info before I send, not just the text. How?

If I address and compose an email and try to print it before I send it, it only prints the text, not the "Subject," "From, Date," and "To" lines in the email. After I send it, if I go into the sent register and print the same e-mail it prints out all these lines along with the text.
I want to print the email before I send it and have the print-out contain all these lines along with the text. How do I set Thunderbird to do this all the time?

You will get the details you want if you print from the draft folder.
