Not sure what you mean by "within iCloud mail" but if you can't view your iCloud mail inside the Mail app on your phone, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Mail off, then after a few seconds turn Mail back on again.

Did it work in Firefox 4, or did you skip that version?

HT1277 I can not configure my major mail account at Mac Mфail - other accounts such as Hotmail and Gmail are working great. Also, I am using that major account at iPhone and iPad with no problem

hello. I can not configure my major mail account at Mac Mфail - other accounts such as Hotmail and Gmail are working great. Also, I am using that major account at iPhone and iPad with no problem. I had contacted mail provider - we had followed step by step all the settings,, they are correct, and I was suggested to use another mail program. Why, for God's sake I should use different programs for different mail accounts? Anyone, had the same problem?

it says - IMAP - Trying to log into this IMAP account is failed - Verify that username and password are correct
same for SMTP

Hiya... I can't get my iCloud mail account to activate on MacMini running OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Be sure the mini is connected to icloud (system preference>icloud) and that you also have mail turned on. Then be sure the mail program has the icloud account defined in it's preferences.

HT201320 Can you have two icloud mail accounts?

Can you have multiple icloud email accounts?

I gather you have created a second account. You can sign in with this in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars and check Mail there. This account will appear alongside the 'primary account' (the one signed in in System Preferences>iCloud) - however you won't get 'push' email, it will be checked periodically.

Can I change my icloud mail account name?

Hi, when activated mail on icloud.com I typed wrong username that I wanted to use. Now I have to use alias to people can recognise my when I want to use it. Is there some way to delete my mail account on icloud and create a new one? I tried looking for some solution but a I didnt find any. Please help and sorry for my english I am still learning it.

To change the iCloud ID go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account your data will reappear when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

I can not login to any mail accounts using my browser...

I can not login in any of my mail accounts (e.g. yahoo, hotmail, gmail) using safari, google chrome even messengers. However, I can browse easily. Moreover, apple mail is not working either. I have tried to reset all my three accounts but my MacBook Air can not contact with Incoming or Outgoing server. Please, help me in solving the problem.

Hi
It is because you are putting the www. in front of each of them
Try:
http://mail.unnayan.org
http://mail.yahoo.com
http://mail.google.com
http://mail.live.com
That should work

TS4002 I had 2 iCould Accounts - one on MacBook Pro and one on iPad - long story. I changed the one on my iPad to sync with laptop. Now I can not get my iCloud mail on my iPad since it only want to set up a new one, not my existing one. How do I fix it

Hi:
I had two iCloud account - one on my iPad set up with Me.com. Its a long story as to why I had two account which I will not the issue. I changed my iPad account to link up with my MacBook Pro account - which is my primary account. After doing this all seemed OK except I could not get y primary iClould email account set. When I tried to add my primary iClound email account it only allows you to add a NEW iClould account which is not what I want.
How do I correct this issue? Thanks.

Thanks Winston but your solution did not work. In my iCould account everything works except Mail - that being contacts, calendar, reminders, etc. When it comes to mail it is currently OFF. When I turn it ON, it states that I need to create a NEW free iClound account, and allowing me to establish my existing account.
When I tried your solution, it stated that the account already exists but in reality it is not on my iPad.
Any more thoughts?

How can I manage my icloud mail account on my iPad since my apple id user is my gmail account?

Hello,
I'm unable to send and receive mails from my icloud account since when when trying to add this mailbox to my account IOS pops a message that says the my gmail account is already added.
My apple user ID is my gmail account, could this be the problem?
How can I be able to manage my icloud account in my iPad?
Regards,
DM

Let's try deleting the iCloud account from your iPad, then adding it back.
If you have any photo stream photos on your iPad, save them to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream alburm, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. The force close the Mail app by double-tapping the home button, locating Mail in the list at the bottom, tap and hold Mail until it wiggles, tap to close it, then tap the home button agian.
Then to delete the iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted. This only deletes the account and your iPad data from your iPad, not from iCloud. Then go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in and turn on your sync settings, confirming that Mail is set to On. Your iCloud data will reappear on your iPad after a brief delay as it redownloads. Open Mail and see if your iCloud account is there now.

ICloud mail account will not retain new password.

...solved ~ by deleting old iCloud mail account, and adding new one.

My hotmail accont on Macbook air was working fine with Mbox. Was able to download folder and all the info from hotmail server into Mail. Now only able to send email out and can't receive email unless change the port 995 instead of 9143 on Mail setup. any solutions. wish never had hotmail account.

Remove additional icloud mail accounts

My daughters each have an iPhone, and they've been using my apple ID in the app store and for their mail. Since I discovered the family sharing, I setup an icloud account for each of them, but when I go into settings, icloud, scroll to the bottom under advanced and click on mail, they have other icloud mail addresses, not the one I recently setup under family sharing. How can I delete these icloud mail accounts and set their phones up to use their new icloud account?

Yes, I'm trying to setup Family Sharing because in the past, their devices all had my Apple ID, so they could buy apps and music, but as they're getting older, they're tired of sharing the same Apple ID, mine, because when someone texts them, they both get it.
I've already setup Family Sharing using my Apple ID, and I assume I've set it up correctly, so when you first enter the iCloud settings, my Apple ID is at the top of the page and under it lists their names, which is where it used to read Family Sharing. Now that they each have their own iCloud account, I'm trying to setup the device to use it, but from what I can tell, it looks like they tried setting up their own Apple accounts because they were tired of receiving each other's texts. When I go to advanced iCloud mail settings (at the bottom of the iCloud settings page, they have multiple iCloud accounts. I'd like to delete all of these and only use the one I setup for them, but I can't figure out how to delete these accounts from the device. Or, is it possible for me to add one of these accounts, which are already listed, to my Family Sharing account and then delete the others? Only problem is, I can't figure out how to delete these iCloud mail accounts from the device.
I know this must be confusing to understand, I use Android, so I've attached a couple of pictures from the settings screens that I'm referring to. Hopefully this will help me explain it better so you understand whatII'm trying to do. Thanks.
