Android phone and iCloud

The instructions in the Apple link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864 do not work when I try to set up iCloud on my Android device. I know iCloud works on my Android device because it did for 3 years until I accidentally cleared the cache today. Now I cannot set it up again. Does anyone know how to set it up? Apple Help desk has been utterly useless.

My question was answered by NHLEVIN in an earlier reply to a similar post. I had to tweak the outgoing settings to get it to work with my HTC Sensation, but work it did.
[Protocol is IMAP]
Do not use @mac.com or @me.com after username
Incoming server is indeed: imap.mail.me.com
Port is indeed 993
Definitely select SSL/TLS and accept all certificates
Now here's the zinger: Authentication should be LOGIN
outgoing server settings are:
smtp.me.com
port 587 Port: 25
NONE for security type Security: TLS
Tic "Require Sign-in"
Authentication is PLAIN
Username again without @me.com or @mac.com

I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?

I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4, and my wife has an iphone. We found out that imessage wont come through from her. After we went to the AT&T helpdesk they said that she could turn off imessage on her phone and that I would get texts on my S4. But then so would everyone else who has an iphone. That won't work for everyone in my company that has an iphone. So what I am wondering is- since I recently got this phone, should I get a new number? Or should I contact ATT or contact Apple to try and get this number de-activated? I'm thinking I'll never get into the icloud account that this number is attached to, but maybe someone has some advice on that?
I just sincerely want imessage to work on this phone and I'm willing to take the steps to do that.
Please help

Either one of the two should work - getting new number from carrier or contacting Apple to revoke phone number from imessage system.
That is if your problem is described correctly.

Is there a way to sync gmail accounts, contacts and calendar to my android phone through iCloud?

I have an iMac, a MacBook Pro, an iPad, an iPod Touch, and an Android phone. I can get iCloud to sync all my mail, calendars, and contacts across all my Apple devices with no problem. Does anybody know if there is a way to get my Android to sync my calendars and contacts from iCloud?

I set up manual accounts with my iPhone 3G. You can try to enter the server accounts for iCloud manually on you Android device and try it out.

Those of you with android phones and network extenders

according to verizion tech support, there is a known issue with ALL android phones (it's an android os issue they say) that causes the phone to not display the signal strength properly when you're on a network extender.
I have had mine for several months, called in several times about issues and was never informed of this until recently.

I have the same problem, in fact I even have a 1mm gap between the rim and the top case, above the DVD slot. The rim is flexible and my right hand pushes it inevitably down when writing. The top case makes a slight noise when resting my hand on it, as it warps down and hits the DVD player. I've shown it to a genius but he said that's "normal" and if at all it is an cosmetic issue only and isn't covered. I told the technician to at least tighten things up when replacing my keyboard to fix my missing letter problem (didn't help the letters btw), which he confirmed, but there was no difference afterwards which indicates that the parts just don't fit properly, even with tightened screws. It annoys me a little but there are still other issues which are more irritating. I love the OS but I'm deeply disappointed by the hardware. Looks sexy but there are serious quality issues which puts my MBP behind many PC brands. Looks and coolness aren't everything.

I just purchased an Iphone 5. I'm trying to activate my new phone by using my Icloud account, however it's telling me there's nothing found. I'm looking at my old phone and it does show that Icloud is on. What can I do?

I recently had a 32gb iphone 4 I backed up the phone via cable to my pc and when I tried to sync the 16gb iphone 5 no apps synced and some other data as well there was an error message saying there is not enough room. there is plenty of room on the new phone for apps, is there any way i can access the photos and apps that are on my pc? I am mainly concerned about my photos. Do I have to buy a 32gb phone now?

Android Phone and Verizon-Yahoo Email account

I've had my Verizon-Yahoo email account as my default email on my Android phone for nearly
2 years. Suddenly, it does not sync with my actual email anymore and I cannot retrieve newly
sent email to me.
What happened?
I deleted my Verizon-Yahoo email account thinking I could readd it without issue and now it
won't add it. So, I am without my regular, most used email address on my mobile phone.
How do I fix this problem step by step and what happened in the first place.
If I canot retrieve my email there is no need for data. I need it for college classes and work,
as well as other business uses.
Can someone help me?
In addition, I have been receiving ALOT of SPAM on my regular Verizon-Yahoo email over the
past 6-12 months and I don't understand why. How do I fix that. I keep sending these adult ads
and other SPAM to the SPAM folders but it keeps coming back!! Is someone signing me up
for this stuff and how do i stop t from happening?
Thank you for your assistance in advance.
Blue.

Hi:
I experience the same problem when I downloaded systems updates on my Android Bionic phone, I was not able to sync my Verizon Yahoo email account. I went through the same steps and nothing worked, until one savvy Verizon Wireless IT support agent told me to download the Yahoo Mail App on to my phone and that solved my problem instantly. I logged in using my Verizon.net username and password and have been able to access my email with no problems ever since and have also updated my Yahoo Mail App and all works beautifully.

Hi,
If you search the forum you'll find numerous threads where the comparison between BDB SQL and SQLite has been discussed, and also where suggestions for tuning BDB SQL have been made.
From the Oracle Berkeley DB SQL API overview page under the Technical Resources subheading you can access several resources related to performance comparison between BDB SQL and SQLite.
Please review and follow the suggestions in those guides and from previous discussions on the forum and let me know if you see BDB SQL's performance improving.

Android phone and apple computer?

I just ordered a MBP 13". It should be coming in the mail within the next few days. I am also in the market for a new phone. All along I had been planning to go with the Samsung Galaxy 3. Now that I got an apple computer, though, I'm wondering if I should wait for the next iphone to come out and get it instead. I guess my question is, would i have a lot of issues with my android phone cooperating with my mbp? Is it a bad idea? Thanks in advance for the advice!!

I had an android (Droid X) and had no issues while connecting it with my mac to upload pics/videos. I now have an iPhone, and it is more convenient as they are meant to work with each other much better on terms of syncing calendars, itunes, photos etc. That stated, I see no issues going with an android, just less convenience and lack of intergration with the mac.

My ipad 3 keeps dropping the wifi connection when my android tablet, android phone, and laptop have never had any issues.

I just got a verizon ipad and am having wifi connection problems. It will connect to my wifi but every 5 or 10 minutes it will drop the connection. The only way to get it back is to go and manually connect to it again in the wifi settings.
Is anyone else having this problem? My android tablet and phone and laptop do not have this problem.

It appears hundreds are having this problem. You must not have done a search for this subject before posting. Try a search for "wifi connection problem on iPad 3" and you'll get lots of information regarding this problem and a few suggestions you can try.

HT6355 Can you send an audio message to a Android phone and will they be able to lisen to it?

Just wondering if I will be able to send audio messages to friends with Android phones.

Not with the Messages app. The option will only appear if you are messaging another iOS user. There may be other apps that will let you do that cross platform. Check the App Store.

I have and android phone and I want to use my mac email account. I cannot get the account to load

I am using an Droid Razr M phone and want to put my mac email account back on it. When doing the set up I constantly get a message that the there is not a connection to the Server. I have followed all the instructions on how to do it but it consistanly will not let me set the account back up. I am using the correct email address and password.

Thank you so much for the help. I had to enter my complete email address using me.com added to my sign in name and then after I got to the next page to enter the settings, I changed the address to not include the me.com information. From there everything went through just fine. This ended about a week of frustration trying with many folks at the Verizon Store to help me. I'm so grateful for your help.

Can FaceTime video be deleted from i phone and iCloud

I would like to delete the face time video chat done from my phone and from i cloud if it recorded any

FaceTime chats are not recoreded. What is recorded is your list of recent calls, but these can be removed by using the "Edit" button.

How can I get my e-mail to update between phone and iCloud

Thanks to help of randers4 I was able to get iCloud installed on my computer with Vista operating system. Now my dilema is that everything there is updating, except for my e-mail. I created an iCloud e-mail account, but don't plan on using it. I want to use my established e-mail address, not the iCloud e-mail. Also I noticed when I was setting up iCloud on the computer , when the iCloud screen showimg Mail, Contacts, etc. it showed Internet Explorer. We have Firefox, does that make a difference.
Also, I had downloaded ringtones from ITunes on my iPhone 4 which my husband now has. Is there a way for me to get those same ringtones on my iPhone 5c without repurchasing them?
Appreciate all help; has been great so far. Sorry to be so dense!

You can use a different email account, but it will not appear on icloud.com as iCoud only hosts iCloud email. Just add your account to the email client on your PC as you would any other email account. To add the account on your iOS devices (iPhone), go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account, choose your provider and provide your account details.
You can't redownload purchased ringtones from iCloud for free but you can sync them to your 5c using iTunes. To do so, connect your iPhone 4 to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Then go to the Tones folder of your iTunes library and confirm that the ringtones appear there. (If you don't see the Tones folder, go to Edit>Preferences>General and make sure Tones is checked in the Show options.)
Then connect your 5c to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Tones folder of your iTunes sync settings, then check Sync Tones and click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.
