Cannot set up emails

Good, Glad 101 looks useful.
Part of the fun with any new computer is the 'finding out process'. Take your iTunes question for example.   There are two paths apart from Apple formal notes (if you can find them).   One is Google.   In this case I Googled 'how to delete iTunes content' and as you would expect, up came a variety of answers. The point and the value is that as people have different needs, the variety of answers meet each.
Two is the search box to the top right of your page.   When you are in the communities forums you can ask there in a similar way to googling.   The advantage is that all answers are for Macs.   Odd though it seems, I prefer to go hunting with Google.
Now, I don't have an iPad or iPhone so unsyncing is a foreign exercise to me ...
but I just Googled 'How to Unsync iPad and iPhones from Windows and ... here are some of the answers.

Hope this helps you get to grips with your iMac.   It's a lovely machine; you did the right thing in buying it.   By the way, when you have a moment, do fill in your profile, particularly the items you have, their version numbers, RAM and so on.   When you ask questions that is the first place people look to get the basics .

Try just choosing yes when it says that. And yes if you get it a second time. Lots of mail providers don't use SSL.

Cannot set up email or gmail

I have been given the curve 8900 by my brother it was locked to vodaphone and is now unlocked, when it comes to setting up email I only have the blackberry enterprise server option. I want the device to download email when attached to a wireless netwrok and so I would like to set up a pop3 email app - can this be done?
I also understand that there should be a gmail app that I can use as I also have a gmail account - but I seem to be going around in circles and most posts are discussing setting up data packages with their carrier.
I just want email when connected to WiFi - any ideas would be gratefully received.

It is inaccurate to compare the way BB's do email with the way others do it...rather, contrasting the different methods is a better approach. Others use an on-device email client. BB's do not have that...rather, they use BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service -- hosted at the carriers/RIM) as the intermediary between the BB and the various email services that you configure. You store, into BIS, your email credentials. BIS then can check for new stuff without generating any traffic to the BB (unless there is new stuff that needs to be delivered to the BB). Other devices, since they are an on-device email client, must generate traffic over the carrier network even for the act of checking for new email (even if there is nothing new). This is how BB's achieve, from the perspective of the BB, true PUSH email. And, for that enhanced functionality, you must subscribe to a data plan. Even if you are using WiFi as the transport path, you are still needing to use the carrier hosted BIS infrastructure...hence, the need even then to subscribe to the proper plan level.
That said, you might be able to use the add-on gmail client via WiFi only...I've never attempted just that, but I know it works over WiFi. For other email services, you'd have to investigate alternate methods for accessing them that does not use BIS. But, the native email app on BB's requires BIS.
It is unfortunate that your early assumptions about how BB's handle email turned out to be inaccurate. Hopefully your carrier will work with you to get you something that functions in the manner you desire.
Good luck!

Cannot set up email account on blackberry curve 9360

Although I can surf the net, I am unable to set up an email account. I don't understand why it is an "enterprise account". What does this mean? I simply want to set up a hotmail account on this mobile. I already have a hotmail account on my laptop and all I want to do is to be able to send and receive emails on the Blackberry. I cannot get past the requirement to enter an Activation Password. When I enter my normal password here it goes off trying to acquire a service connection. Eventually a screen says "Activation request failed. A service connection is unavailable. OK.
Setting up my iPhone was easy compared to this. What am I doing wrong?

Cannot set up email. duplicate pin, says "edge" rather than "EDGE"

Hey guys,
I just bought a Blackberry 8320. When i tried to set up my email accounts it will not connect.
I called Rogers and they say the PIN on my phone is already under someone elses account (duplicate pin)
They also said that the network on the phone should show up as "EDGE" but right now its showing up as "edge" (some how the network is no recognizing the phone)
Can anyone help me set up my email?
THANKS!
MERRY XMAS!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!

You must contact whoever the prior owner is and have them contact the carrier on which they had the BB registered and get them to remove it from that carriers BIS system. Typically, the recipient (you) cannot give such authorization -- the carriers tend to look at such requests as stolen devices and such, so they won't typically do anything without the prior owners consent. If you can't find the prior owner and can't as well sweet talk your way into getting Rogers to help, then you will be SOL I suspect.

Indeed it should be showing up as caps EDGE. Lower case means that the BB sees their network, but is not properly registering to it. I suggest you try these steps:
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > BBKey (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
I would also have advised you to resend the Service Books, but until you get your BIS account straightened out, that would probably be a useless attempt...
Good luck and let us know!

New Device: cannot set up email.

Hi,
I had a Blackberry Curve 8530 before and lost the device and bought a new one (same carrier, same phone number same type of phone). The old device had email set up on it no problem.
I immediately tried to set up new email (have not downloaded any apps yet) both by the wizard and email settings and it takes me to a screen I don't recognize. On the Top it says "Blackberry Internet Service" and is asking for a user name and password. I don't rmember setting this up on the old phone, but if I did, it seems as though it is recognizing this phone number as already having an account because there is no option to create an account. I have no idea what username or password it wants, nor do I know how to get that information. I cannot find a Blackberry Internet Service URL for cricket. and cricket is telling me they don't use user names. I don't know if this is a blackberry thing or cricket thing. Whatever the username is, it isn't an email, because when I type my email in it says "username is blank" The Picture is not a screenshot, but a pic I found on the internet that is exactly the screen that I'm talking about.
Black Berry Curve 9350 on Cricket
v.7.1.0

UPDATE: Found the Cricket BIS server for Cricket by randomly typing things into my browser that made sense. it's https://mycricket.blackberry.com/ Unfortunately it won't let me create a new account because it says I already have one (after entering PIN and ESN/MEID) and to contact 1-800-cricket for help!!! HA!!! they have no clue what I'm talking about.
I tried to at least get the password so maybe I can figure out my username by trying different things, but though it says it is sent, it never reaches my device. Anyone happen to work for Cricket so I can tell these people where to look for my username?? ARRRGGGHHH!!!!!

Tbird will not recognize password for new TWC account, which is active. So, cannot set up email

Trying to set up an existing email account on Tbird. It will not recognize my password. Well, TWC does. Why doesn't Tbird? How do I add this account?

Thunderbird does not "recognize" and email password. It provides the one you stored in it to the email server when asked for one. It would be the email server rejecting it.
If you are sure you have the correct password then it might be the format of your username or some other server setting that is incorrect.
Get a list of server settings from your provider and make sure they are correct in Thunderbird.
Pay attention to your username format. Some providers want just the username and others want the entire thing including the @provider.com.

Nokia X6 - Cannot Set Up Email Accounts

Hi folks,
I'm trying to set up my email accounts on my Nokia X6 but it's just not happening.
I use the email set-up wizard and when I put in my email address and click "ok" it just keeps coming back with "unable to connect to server. Try again later"
I've also tried by going into my Nokia Ovi Account settings and "verifying" my email account but no luck.
This is the same for my yahoo mail and google mail.
Any ideas as this is just plain crazy!
Thanks
Ian

Was just thinking your connection may not be very good, if you connect to wifi, it may register to the server that's all ! You could try Emoze as well, shouldn't need to, but it's free and it works !

HT1393 Cannot set up email account on iphone.

No matter what I do in setting up my primary account on my iphone it keeps telling me my username and/or password is incorrect. I'm 100% sure it's correct. The account was working perfectly and nothing changed. I still use the email on my desk top so I know it is valid. It may even fetch the mail occasionally.Does anyone have any ideas?

If this is a gmail account you may need to go here to unlock it for you phone: https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha

Cannot set the email from address (reply-to) in SharePoint Designer workflow

I have created several workflows for custom lists. Among other actions, they send out emails. It appears however, that they all use the same from-address. I would like to supply each of these workflows with different reply-to addresses.
Can I do that? After a lot of searching it appears that the only way is to create separate Web Applications, since the reply-to address is set on Web Application level. But that would require several extra web applications in my case, which again need their own site collections and sites.
I really, really miss a "From" field in the SharePoint Designer workflow "Send e-mail" action.
Best regards, Jan.

Hi,
I think it is not possible out of the box. Have a look at the "Send email extended" custom SPD workflow activity (http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities ). As per the website "Send email extended - Enhanced version of the OOTB activity. Allow you to specify the sender. Also does not break links in body."
Hope it helps.

E72 - Cannot set up email

When I'm in the email setup wizard and at the screen where a list of email providers is displayed (Ovi, Yahoo, Gmail...), I pick Yahoo and enter my user ID and password, but the wizard just takes me back to that same screen as if nothing happened. Not even a message is displayed, so I don't know what the problem is. The same thing happens when I choose one of the other providers. Can someone help me?

good. unbrranded.
then just *#7370# your unit and then use the NSU. if it is not working on your win 7....wierd....i would go to the nokia website and download a new version to be sure you have the latest version in case you are incompatibile.
here is the link for the NSU.
http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update#
use the direct NSU. works fine on my win7 home prem.
if that is a no go....then send it in.
because if completely reinstalling the software is not going to do it, then there must be something else that is hardware related (not sure what that could be)
but the OVI suite i do not think will "reinstall" the software like the NSU.
it usually just checks for an update and does not give the option to reinstall.

Att email...new iphone 5....HELP...cannot set up email on phone

I have absolutely NO IDEA how to get my att email working on my iPhone 5
Help...I don't know what settings I need

Yahoo mail is famous for its down time. There have been a lot of problems with them in the last couple of weeks, and I would imagine that is what the problem is, not the phone.
