Can't save iCloud mail settings (to hide notes in inbox)

Want to hide notes in inbox - when unchecking in preferences and proceeding to save, I get the info "don't leave incoming server empty". But its pre filled an can't be changed...

You might want to try signing completely out of iCloud by going to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts (you data will still be in iCloud), then restart your Mac and sign back in.

ICloud mail settings not saved in System Preferences on Mountain Lion

Does anyone know how to fix this?
Cheers

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

IPhoto 11 (9.2.1) can't use iCloud Mail smtp server for email.

iPhoto 11 (9.2.1) can't use iCloud Mail smtp server for email. "The email server didn't recognise username/password combination". Both appear correct in preferences/accounts. Mail sends and receives messages perfectly.
(This problem also occurs when trying to send from Thunderbird, however both iPhoto and Thunderbird can send perfectly well using the Gmail server).

Hi there
I should explain that I have 5 days experience of the iMac but have had a working iCloud account with my iPad for several months. I don't think this is an iCloud issue as such. My thought is that this is something to do with the Mail application itself and its relationship to my Apple ID etc. (Perhaps when the iMac first configured itself?)
I have deleted and manually reset both Mail and iPhone account settings for iCloud using the Apple recommended settings and I have tentatively checked that the username/password combination is as expected in Keychain but I'm too much of an Apple novice to go any further with that.
On a PC I think I would try reinstalling the Mail programme but I don't see that as an option.

Try this out... this worked like a charm:
*On a desktop PC, log into your gmail account.
*Click the gear up in the top right corner > Settings
*Click Accounts
*Under "Change Account Settings", click "Other Goole Account Settings"
*Along the left, click "Security"
*Under 2-step verification, click "Manage your application specific passwords"
*It will ask for your usual gmail account password and take you to a page that says "
Authorized Access to your Google Account
*You will see a box to type in something (I just typed in iPad) then click "Generate Password"
*It will generate a random password for you... you will need this password Once in your iPad....
Now...
*Go to your iPhone Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Add Account>Google
*Type in your name, your usual gmail email address and for the password, type in that random one generated on your PC
It should work from there, if not follow what is below!

My iphone icloud mail settings

I cannot access iphone icloud mail account as error message tells me my password is incorrect however iphone icloud mail settings are correct and I can access icloud mail on my desktop by logging in to icloud.com using my Apple ID. Any way out of this?

Ok I think I sorted this by rebooting the iPhone holding down home key and power off button.

When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" with the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message. How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed

When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" "behind" the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message in the inbox. How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed individually in the inbox instead of having them "stacked" behind the original message. I'm afraid I might accidentially overlook messages the way they are handled now.

Somebody here will correct me if I'm wrong, but what you have to do is go into Settings, Mail/Contacts/Calendars and under Mail, turn off "Organize by Thread". I think that will make each message show individually.

HT4539 Why I can download from iCloud on 1 iPod but not the other. It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

I can download from iCloud to one iPod but not the other. It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

I'm not sure what you mean by the "music library" - are you looking in the Music app? Or the iTunes app (which is not the one to be looking in)?

I can't receive iCloud mail on the web or any of my devices

I have had an iCloud account since the early .mac days. Two days ago, all of the unread mail in my inbox disappeared from my iPhone 5S, iMac, MacBook Air, and even the iCloud website, and I have not received any mail on this account since. None of the troubleshooting has worked. I do still have unread mail that I have placed in files other than my inbox, and can SEND from the account, but something is seriously wrong here. Where are my lost unread messages, and why am I not receiving mail? Any ideas?

Hi ..
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If nothing above has helped, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
No data is lost due to a reset.

Can't send iCloud mail from Outlook 2011

I have recently installed Office 2011 for Mac on my Macbook Pro and I want to set up my iCloud mail on it. I can receive mail just fine but I can't send mail at all. I keep getting error code 17092 saying that the SMTP server doesn't recognize any of the authentication methods supported by Outlook. How can I fix this problem or do I have to just use the native Mail app? Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I was having the same issue. I was able to fix by login into appleid.apple.com and setting my @me as the primary email adress.( Make sure you verify it) The deleted your i cloud account on you Iphone, Ipad or Touch then added it again. You should be able to send email using icloud

Can't access iCloud mail or contacts from PC

I can't access my iCloud emails or contacts from my home PC (Windows 7). iCloud.com either returns an error message or else fails to respond at all.
All other sites I try are behaving normally, so it would appear to be an iCloud problem rather than anything at my end.
Here is the error message I get from iCloud:
"Mail could not be loaded
"There was a problem loading the application due to a possible network error or missing resources. Please try again.
"Details
"By clicking 'send to Apple' you agree that Apple will collect and use this information..."
I have tried this many times. I either get this error message, or else nothing at all happens. All other web sites work fine. I have no other problems with my PC in any application, so this is almost certainly a problem with iCloud. Until it is solved, iCloud is nearly useless to me, as I can only use it from one device, my iPad. On my PC, I reach iCloud by clicking on the link within the iCloud application.
I would greatly appreciate some help in dealing with this problem in accessing iCloud from my PC. (No Mac-based solutions, please: I don't have one.)

Today this worked for the first time on my PC, at last. Had just updated iCloud software to version 2.1.2 - could this have affected the operation of the web site on my computer? Seems odd. Anyway, nice that it finally works. Suggest others who have the same problem try this.

How NOT to save iCloud Mail messages sent from iPhone?

Using iCloud Mail on a MacBook / Safari, e-mail messages are NOT saved - the relevant box in Preferences is unchecked. However they are saved in the Sent folder when sent from an iPhone. Is there any way they are NOT saved either way?

Again, ON MY IPHONE only has Sent option. There's no way you can set the Sent mailbox to any Trash anywhere.
