Anyone know the SMTP (outgoing mail) address for Verizon / Yahoo ?

Every time I upgrade the Operating system, Windows "Easy transfer" only saves and transfers mail & settings if you use IE.
I use Firefox / Thunderbird.
The last time I laboriously found it on this site it was not the correct one for the customers who selected Yahoo as their email server and I have yet to find it on the Yahoo site.
Isn't "self service" great !!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I figured it out on the Verizon automated answering irritant whose actual answer is of course wrong.
They say it's, "outgoing.verizon.net." It's actually, "outgoing.yahoo. verizon.net" if you chose to use Yahoo for your email.
It's the "outgoing" part that I was getting wrong. I was using "smtp."

Mac mail - SSL option for the SMTP outgoing mail server - Help!

Mac mail (Version 6.3 (1503)) will not let me "uncheck" the SSL option for the SMTP outgoing mail server - Help!
Thanks!

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
find ~ $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

What is the smtp incoming mail server for iCloud?

What is the smtp incoming mail server for iCloud?

There is no such thing as an "SMTP incoming mail server." You set up iCloud mail by checking the box marked Mail in the iCloud preference pane. You don't need to know the addresses of the servers.

Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified. Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!

Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified.
Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!
So my options are:
Create a new Apple ID, use that and lose all the apps I've purhcased with it (a fairly substantial amount)
Somehow Migrate these purchases over to a new Apple ID
Apple let me change the primary ID for the account
Anyone else ran into this before?
I've tried accessing the mail through a mail application using the correct server information, and trying both the old 6 character password and the one I had to change it too after they updated the security guidelines - neither work.
Help would be greatly appreciated as I can see more services down the line not working without the address being verified!

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should not need to verify the old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I wana change the receiver E-mail address for security answers . How can i ?

I wana change the receiver E-mail address for security answers . How can i ?

Hi Mohammed,
You can change the Rescue email address by logging onto your Apple ID at:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Of course, if you do not know your password, and it is asking you to answer your security questions right now, then you can't do that....
Cheers,

IMAC: What is the SMTP outgoing mail server?

IMAC: What is the SMTP outgoing mail server?

You need to get that information from your internet service provider if you are using an email address provided by them or, if you are only using iCloud, then the info can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
FWIW, in order to set up email, you need both an incoming and outgoing server address (in addition to your email address/user name and password). Those are the servers your email program uses when sending or receiving emails.

How to own the same e-mail-address for different Apple-IDs

Hello
I’m under the impression, that I can’t use the same e-mail-address for iCloud I used already in my Apple-ID for iTunes, because I get no verification mail for the iCloud account. Is this correct or did I something wrong?
Thanks for supporting me
I already raised this question in the iCloud forum, but till now nobody answered - may be the wrong sub-forum

Many thanks for the answer - that's what I suspected. Anyway...
The problem I have now is, that my Apple-ID I used already for some years in order to buy apps is in the "old" format (e.g. duggy832), that means not in the form of an eMail-address. iCloud accept only Apple-IDs in the “new” format meaning in the form like an eMail-address (e.g. [email protected]).
So it needs to modify the old Apple-ID from duggy832 to [email protected] or to “transfer” – if possible – my shopping from Apple-ID duggy832 to [email protected]
Which way is possible, which is safe/secure, which is recommended?
Thanks in advance

How can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

I have two iPads.. an iPad and an ipad 2. I registared my new ipad 2 and now my old ipad is will not let me log on and is telling me that my e-mail address is already in use. how can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases. If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

I have entererd the wrong E-mail address for my £15iTunes gift card, how can i get my code back so i can put it on the right account?

i entered the wrong E-mail address when it asked me for my Apple ID, now my card is useless and i dont have the £15 credit i paid for, i was wondering, if i gave you the code, would you be able to trace what address i typed in (Which will be similar to the one i have now) and would you be able to transfter the £15 credit onto my account?
I can send you the code if you like?
Many thanks, James Cummings.

First, you're not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will respond are fellow users and there's nothing we can do directly with this problem.
But I can tell you that if you redeemed the card through the wrong iTunes Store ID, then sorry, but there's no way to transfer credit from one account to another. You'll have to use the iTunes Store ID under which you redeemed the card to make your purchases. You would not have been able to redeem the card through another account unless you had the password to that account, though, so you may not have actually successfully redeemed the card. Have you tried to redeem it through your "real" iTunes Store account?
Regards.

Why doesn't the smtp (outgoing mail server) change on switch locations

It would seem to me that when you choose Apple, locations and then select a new location, the Mail program should know that it should use the new smtp server.
I have dsl from at&t or the old southwestern bell. They have blocked sending to any other smtp server on port 25 while I am at my home.
I know how to switch them and recieve the prompt when it fails to select a different server. I know how to do this. However, other people who I have converted to the Apple platform, are displeased that it doesn't know to switch. This person is not technical and doesn't want to be technical.
In their terms, they just want it to work.
For right now, I told her to go into preferences, accounts within mail and to switch back and forth. I told her I would find a better solution.
discussions.apple.com shows a lot of people complaining about outgoing mail but not a lot of solutions on switching back and forth.
Anybody have any suggestions? I still think that when you switch the location, it should change your outbound smtp server.

I want to be able to totally block the FaceTime functionality in my home network. I would like to do this at the router level. Does anyone know the hostname or IP address that the FaceTime application uses? Or which port it connects to?

I want to be able to totally block the FaceTime functionality in my home network so my 4 kids aren't using the Facetime feature- It was easy for Skype just had to enter the work Skype on my Router Security list- and it denies access. I would like to do this at the router level for FaceTime? Only site I find in init.ess.apple.com - is this the startup site for Facetime? Does anyone know a site I can block, hostname or IP address that the FaceTime application uses? Or which port it connects to?

I would presume so, but it might be worth your while to experiment and play around with different combinations to see if you can block FaceTime while keeping Game Center open. Good luck!

Can't switch the primary outgoing mail server for Gmail?

I recently got an iPad and went to set up my two Gmail accounts exactly how I have them set up on my iPhone: Gmail Account #1 is my original one, and Gmail Account #2 was linked to it later to utilize its outgoing server (so messages sent from #1 look like they're coming from #2).
On the iPhone, I switched off #1's primary outgoing server and selected #2's. Very simple, very easy.
But on the iPad, when I go to switch off #1's outgoing server, the only option I have available afterwards is to click 'Cancel' - it won't let me turn it off and select another one!
The problem seems exclusive to Gmail, as my Yahoo account doesn't have this issue.
I have a feeling it's an iOS7 glich... I have iOS7 on the iPad, but not on my iPhone. Everything else is set up exactly the same between the two devices. I've tried deleting both accounts and re-activiating, I've tried manually setting them up instead of using Apple's pre-selected system... nothings seems to work.
Anyone?

The issue isn't getting the accounts online - both accounts are added and working. The issue is that Gmail forces me to use the primary outgoing server for their respective accounts - I can't switch it off and select another from that drop-down list like I can with my iPhone.
I am able to switch ON the outgoing server for #2, but the problem is that when I slide the primary server to "off" - the "DONE" button in the top right remains gray and unclickable. Strangely this is not the case for Yahoo - I can select an outgoing server on that account at will.
