Can't setup BT Mail on iPhone or iPad after workin...

Having been asked to change to the new look BT Mail (had to change password, for some reason) on laptop on 19th Sept, noticed on Friday 26th that I couldn't send emails from iPhone (receiving OK). Ran throught the steps suggested on several threads on this forum but kept getting error message "password or usename is incorrect...". Tried deleting account, etc - no good. Saturday morning, tried again - worked perfectly - able to set up BT Mail as described and send emails. Saturday afternoon, tried to retrieve mail - got the error message again - could not receive mails now! Ran through the steps again and again. Cannot complete setup. Checked on iPad - same issue. Checked settings against my wife's phone and ipad - she has no issue and settings are the same. She hasn't changed to the new BT Mail. Suspect that something hasn't synchronised on server side with the new password.
Have checked login to My BT, BT Sport, etc and all OK. Checked my BT profile and looks OK. As I said, it was working fine for a few hours yesterday but then failed again. Any ideas?

SORRY, Please read this one I sent it too early...........
Hi, I have had the same issue for the last few days. However today I set up a mail account on my ipad & iphone with my previous password and it works! make sure you put your previous email password under the outgoing server details too. It worked for me so I have now contacted BT again to ask why it is allowing me to use old passwords on the iphone/ipad but can only use the new password on the laptop webmail. Good Luck

Can I delete photos on my iPhone or iPad after they are on my iCloud? How do I retrieve pics from iCloud?

Can I delete pictures off my device once I have pics on my photo stream? How do I pull them from iCloud once they are deleted?
Thanks!!!

Yes. To back up your photos, save them to your computer while they were in the camera roll, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. You will get an option to delete them from your device after they are imported.
If you have photo stream photos that you need to back up, save them from your my photo stream album to your camera roll. Then they can be imported too.

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?
Have an Exchange mail account setup and accessible in my mail on iPad... however my kids use it and i would like to restrict them from accessing this specific portion of the device. I tried viewing restriction options and do not see that i can apply a restriction specifically to Mail. Thanks for your help.

Not a feature of iOS. Check the AppStore to see if there are other
mail apps that allow passcode protection.
Or use Safari to log onto your email via a web-based interface and
enter your credentials each time. A bit slower, but the kids will
not know the details to login.

Is this on wifi or cellular data?
Have you tried a reset? Hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
Have you gone into the email settings and making sure the password are still there?

How can I transfer contacts from my Iphone to ipad without using a computer?

The easiest method is to setup an iCloud account, turn on Contacts syncing in Settings > iCloud on both devices, and the Contacts from the iPhone will sync to the iPad.

Secondary accounts can't use photostream or document syncing.

How can I print from iCal on iPhone and iPad?

HHow can I print from iCal on iPhone and iPad?

Hi EScott,
This is an easy fix. You indicate that you get these emails just fine on your desktop, so they are not getting lost. They are just not making it to your iPhone or iPad. This tells me that you need to change the preferences of the accounts on your desktop machine. Each account will have a setting for what to do with mail on the server after you have checked it. The choices are to leave on the server, or to delete it.
If you have it set to delete, it won't be there when you later go check your mail from your mobile device. Most of the people I see post here with email issues have the opposite problem from you. They check their email from the phone during the day, then can't get it on the desktop later. It sounds like your iPhone and iPad are already set to leave on server.
All you have to do is go into your mail client on the desktop and in the individual preferences for each account change this setting. You may also want to check how you have deleted mail set up. It also can be set to be removed immediately, at a later time (like a week, month), or never. If you have it set to delete it won't be in your trash folder.
Good luck.

TS2776 How can I transfer e-mail contacts from one IPad to another?

How can I transfer e-mail contacts from one IPad to another?

Depends on how big the file is. If itis only a couple of pages, or mostly text, the easiest way would be to e mail it. If it is a very large file you are going to need wifi. Take both pads to starbucks, and e mail it from there. Or if you have wifi, use drop box, for example.
Your other choice, avoiding wifi would be a bluetooth type transfer. There is an app call bluetooth file lite that reads like it will do what you need. The good news is it is free. The bad news is that it has terrible ratings. For grins, i am installing it now on a pad and a phone, and will see if it works.
With a bluetooth method, you need both devices in the same place. If you are trying to send your file across country, bluetooth will not work for you. you need e mail or drop box type solution, and if the file is big, you will almost certainly need wifi.

can the apple tv be used if I do not own another apple prouct?

The Apple Tv is a stand alone device. It does not require an iPhone, iPad or other Apple Product.
An Apple Tv is simply plugged into an HD Tv via an HDMi cable, and has a control remote to select the options form its onscreen menu.

Can't sync my contact from iPhone to iPad Air

Can't sync my contact from iPhone to iPad Air.
If I add a new contact in iPad Air it appears on iPhone. If I delete this new contact on iPhone it is also deleted on iPad. But the whole contacts of iPhone cannot be imported in iPad.
Please help me! Who has any idea?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Please try the following…
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

Your iPhone's iOS must be same or newer than the one in backups. In your case it is older so you need to update your iPhone and then recover it with backup.
