Can't create new email account on mavericks

I've tried to create a new email account on Mavericks but it won't receive or send email. The account is properly set up and I was able to create the identical account on a Mac G5 using the same information.
Something wrong with mail in Mavericks?

Can't create new email account.

I can't create new emails account because when I go to Setting and click in Mail,Contacts ,calender, it goes back to home, intead of open the options. Any advice? Thanks
Julio

Double tab the home button and when the application button shows up hold the settings icon until you see a red dot in the corner and hit that.
If that dosent work then try restarting the device. Hold the lock button (top right of iPad) until slide to power off appears then hit the same button to get it back on.
To actually make an email account you have to go to the providers web page, you can't create one in settings

When I try to select 'Mail, contacts, calenders' on my Ipad it just returns to the home screen so I can't create new email accounts. Anyone know why? Bob

I have set up my Hotmail account on the Ipad but when I try to alter it or add and account I have the problem.
I push 'Settings' and then 'Mail, contacts and calenders' but it just returns to the home apps page. THEN

Help please

Your Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.
1. Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
2. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
3. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

Updated Mac Air to Mountain Lion and now I can not create new email in Hot Mail

Updated Mac Air to Mountain Lion and now I can not create new email in Hot Mail

Greetings,
What you posted is rather vague. By doesn't work do you mean the applications don't open at all or are you getting a message stating that your product needs activation? If it's product activation then that is something that Microsoft will have to assist you with. If your problem is that the applications simply won't open you may have to uninstall and reinstall Office again. This is common on the Windows platform too. Rarely when you upgrade to a new OS Office sometimes has an issue with the upgrade and won't open correctly. I would suggest merely uninstalling and reinstalling. Nine times out of ten that helps.

I can't create an email account in Outlook 2013 for my exchange server

Have tried many things on this issue.
I have a new tablet PC running Windows 8. I am able to connect to my Exchange Server account using Windows 8 Mail, no problem but when I have tried to set up an account for Outlook 2013 to connect to the same Exchange Server using exactly the same login
information I cannot get it to connect. I simply get the message that the Exchange Server is unavailable.
I've been able to connect a variety of other devices to the same Exchange Server account without any problem - iPhones, Windows Phone, iPads, etc, etc all without problem. It's just this device and Outlook 2013 seems to be the issue. From checking various
forums seems this is not an isolated issue but I've not been able to find a useful solution so far. Have deleted the user profiles and .ost files, switched off caching etc, all to no avail.
One key difference between the account information required by Windows Mail and Outlook is that in the Windows Mail system I am prompted to enter my domain information. I know this is critical from the information provided to me by our network administration
team but there is nowhere in the Outlook account setup process where I can enter my domain info.
Closest I've been able to get to success is to use the manual account creation process and select the Exchange ActiveSync option - this gets me to the point where I'm prompted for my username and password info but it fails at this step because I am connected
to a local domain (the domain account for the PC) and my user name and password are not accepted. There is nowhere in this login process that I can find where I can enter the correct domain info.
Any ideas on a solution would be very much appreciated - I use Outlook extensively in my work and whilst the Windows 8 Mail system is good, it doesn't have the level of functionality I need.
Many thanks
Wayne.

Have managed to solve this with your help Martina regarding using the domain\username combination.
Here's the solution in detail in case anyone else is having similar problems.
From control panels - select the User Accounts and Family Safety item, then the Mail (Microsoft Outlook 2013) item and then the Email Accounts option.
Select the Email tab and click 'New... button to create a new email account
Choose the standard Email account option in the following form. (Not the 'Manual' option'
Enter your Exchange account details - no alterations necessary here. just your standard details.
As the account verification proceeds you are prompted to again enter your username and password details. In this form, instead of using the top option with your username already populated, click the lower 'Other user' option and enter your domain\username
details. This changes the domain. Enter your password as usual.
I was prompted to do this twice - same each time. Enter domain\username in the username field and usual password
Account is then created.
Open Outlook to complete the process and synchronise data with Exchange.
Hope this is helpful to others - again, many thanks for your assistance Martina.

I can not create an email account for my client

I have created an email account ([email protected]) and it is sending snd recieving messages. However when I try to create an address ([email protected]) me client could not log in to the webmail. I deleted the account and re-created the address with my email as the recovery. My thinking was I would set up the email and confirm everything is working and then show the client how to reset the password. Now it I can not get the BC admin panle to send an invite email yo me. Please advise. Client is passed mad on this. I have to resolve this issue.

When I try to set up the [email protected] email account in the BC admin panle it repeatedly continues to change the password recovery email to [email protected] no matter how I set it up. This doesn't make any sense. We can get into that account to even set a user password.

Can I create another email account?

Hi
Can you let me know if it's possible to create another email account in me.com or now cloud.com email sevice?
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can create another account and hence another e-mail address, if that is what you are asking.

If you can't 'Create new user account' - try this!

Over the last few days I've wasted many hours trying unsuccessfully to create a new user account so I can post to Apple Discussions. Kept going round an endless loop, back to the 'Create New User Account' form. Tried every possible solution I found through internet searches, to no avail.
The answer, for me, turned out to be simply choosing a different alias - one that nobody else was using, presumably.
Why, oh why, isn't there an error message that tells you this? It would have saved me so much time and frustration - and many other people too, I'm sure.

Welcome, finally, to Discussions - you are not the first to complain about this, if you like, you can go to app.com/feedback and register your complain there as well.

How to create iMAP email account in Mavericks

There used to have a choice to create POP or IMAP type of email account in OS X Mail. No more in OS X Mavericks or did I miss something?

Actually, you can still do that by pressing the Alt/Option key when you first set up an email account and at the prompt where you enter your email address, username and password. I can't remember, but I think you press the Option key after you fill out that screen. I think the Create button changes to Next so you can manually select the type of email account (IMAP, POP).

Can't create new user account....

Hi- I am trying to create a new user account so that I can see if some of the issues I am having with my G4 Mac also are issues under a different account. I have (several times) created a new account and assigned a password and also tried having no password. Either logging out or using Fast User Switching, I click on the new user icon and either type in the password (I know I have it correct since it's my default password) or not type it in if I have no password set, and click on login. That's when I get the shaking window. No matter what I do, I can't login!! I am at a loss of what to do or what could be causing this. Any help will make me a happy Mac user again! Judy
PS- After I had this problem surface, I ran Monoligual and got rid of lots of language support and I also ran Font Nuke to clean out some font caches.... but these were run after I had problems setting up a new user account. I was having issues with the new upgrade for my genealogy program, Reunion (still having issues actually-they can't figure out what's causing the problem) and I removed some "things" from Login Items. Can't tell you what they were but I have some there still. I ran Disk Warrior and iDefrag also recently. Also have repaired permissions. The other issue I had (yesterday anyway-haven't used it much today yet) is that Safari was crashing when I was accessing my public library's online catalog............. I don't know if any of these are related to my inability to create a new user account or not but thought I'd throw that into the mix.

You say a dialog comes up for you to enter a password when you don't have a password while using Fast User Switching. That should not happen.
If you set up an account without setting the password, Fast User Switching won't bring up the password dialog for that account. Instead, it will instantly switch to that account when you choose it.
Make sure there is nothing in the password field when you set up the account, or change the password and don't type anything in for either the new or verify fields. It'll ask you to confirm that you don't want a password and "Cancel" will be the default button. Choose the "Ok" button instead.
That should do it. If not, then I have no idea.

Can't create BT email account

Hello
I switched to BT (unlimited Infinity1) two days ago, and although the broadband works fine, I've been unable to set up a BT email account.
In the My Extras section of My BT the BTMail panel is marked "Inclusive" with a "Get Started" link at the bottom. However, when I click on this link I get the message: "Regret for the inconvenience cause (sic), we are currently unable to find mailbox information corresponding to the account".
I use a hotmail address for my BT ID, and don't have a BT Yahoo! address. Do I need one of these to create a BT email account?
Help appreciated!
Solved!

Apparently, it was due to the fact that my order hasn't been cleared yet - despite the fact that my broadband has been up and running for two days.
That is what I guessed, as its been mentioned before. All related tasks have to be completed before an order can be closed.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Can't create second email account

I'm just use bb..and I use torch 9800..I have two email account that I create before..but I can't set up my two email account..I just can set up one only of my email account..so,how can I set up my second email account??...&amp;gt;Help wanted&amp;lt;

OK, let me see if I understand:
You have one email account successfully integrated.
You want now to integrate a Yahoo email account, but when you provide the credentials to the on-device email configuration wizard, it replies with "password and email is incorrect".
Is that accurate? If so, I suspect that the error message is not exactly that...but nevertheless it sounds like the credentials you are providing for this Yahoo account are not valid. Any chance there are special characters and/or numbers in the email address or the password? If so, then this may apply...for instance, if your password is
ab123
and you enter
a > b > ALT > 1 > 2 > 3
the actual result will be
ab1er
You must enter
a > b > ALT > 1 > ALT > 2 > ALT > 3
in order to wind up with ab123. So, in this example, while on the BB keyboard you think you are typing ab123, you are actually typing ab1er.
On your BB, when you type your password, you should get just a moment where each character is shown in the clear before it changes to an *. Watch closely the next time and you may see a surprising result.
Otherwise, do indeed try (via your BB Browser) the link provided above by Wolf359. Additionally, you can, from your PC/browser, try your carriers BIS website...you will need to ask them for that URL. Further, if you ring up your carrier, they may be able to integrate this to your BB for you.
Good luck!

Can't create new user accounts

I somehow lost the ability to create a new user account. I currently have two admin accounts and would like to create another account. I can go through the setup with name, password, etc but when i hit create i get the spinning loading sign and a beach ball for minutes. Finally, with me force quiting system prefs.
I've run permission and disk check and everything came back fine. Is there anything i can do?

If installing the COMBO didn't do the trick, then start over, reinstalling SL from the install disc, and see if that fixes the issue. If so, rerun Software Update, installing everything that pops up, repeating until your software's up to date, repair permissions, and restart. If not, then I'm out of ideas and you need to contact AppleCare or take the machine into an Apple repair station.
