Cannot setup mail account in Outlook 2007

I cannot setup my @me.com mail account on outlook. I have tried the various settings, including imap.mail.me.com variations, changing the ports, etc. Once I have setup my account, I am continuously asked by Outlook for my username and password. When I try to click on the @me.com folder, outlook crashes. Strangely, iCloud seems to be able to sync my contacts without this mail account setup (!?), so I do have the iCloud folder.
Any help would be appreciated, as I am trying to sync my Vista laptop, iPad1, and IPhone3GS.

"gpcom.net" doesn't sound like the name of a mail server. Those often have names like "pop.gpcom.net" or "smtp.gpcom.net". What server names do the instructions of your mail service tell you to use? Are you trying to use a POP3 or IMAP service?
no login required
That's uncommon, at least for reading of e-mail.

  • Cannot setup Mail account

    I keep trying but it just never seems to work. Thunderbird will work fine. How can I be messing up something so simple as Mail?

  • HT4759 Cannot access iCloud Contacts in Outlook 2007

    I cannot access my iCloud contacts in my Windows 7 PC.  When I am in the Contacts tab and I click on "Contacts in iCloud" in the iCloud section, a window comes up with "The set of folders cannot be opened.  The information store could not be opened."

    Hi,
    According to your description, I think you are unable to search your contact in Outlook 2007.
    Method 1
    Corruption in the pst-file could terminate the search
    query prematurely and not all or none of the result will be shown. In that case you should run
    scanpst.exe against your pst-file to check it for errors.
    Method 2
    To show contacts, the
    Outlook Address Book Service should be added to your mail profile.
    Outlook 2007
    Tools > Account Settings > Tab Address Books
    If the Outlook Address Book
    service is added already, you should mark your Contacts
    folder as an Outlook Address Book.
    Regards
    Ashish@V

  • Multiple exchange e-mail accounts in outlook 2013

    Hello. I'm trying to set-up two exchange e-mail accounts in outlook 2013 (Exchange server is synchronized with Active Directory).
    Once I add second account and restart outlook I get password prompt from each of the accounts. And it keeps prompting all the time and one of the accounts do not work. Could you please assist me on how to set-up those multiple exchange e-mail accounts correctly

    Setup the second Exchange account in one profile would always keep prompting usernam/password. This is limitation of Outlook profile.
    To work around this, I recommand that you may use the tool as below:

  • Transfer mail accounts from Outlook 2003 to Outlook 2013

    Hello friends! 
    We changing computers in the office
    and I would appreciate some help.
    We are moving from Windows XP and
    Outlook 2003 to
    Windows 8.1 and
    Outlook 2013.
    That we can transfer mails with
    pst-files I know,
    but does anyone have a solution how to transfer
    our e-mail accounts.
    Each computer has 7 accounts linked
    to it and I'd rather not do it manually.
    Is there any solution?
    Many thanks for your help!
    Kind regards:

    I would say it's not a stable way since the profile may easily get corrupted, so some people think it's not possible to complete the migration.
    Use Auto account setup and let Outlook 2013 set the accounts up for you.
    older versions:

  • Cannot setup mail in ipod

    -cannot setup mail in ipod
    i have referenced & reviewed the online support pages, tutorials &
    forum support groups.
    still i am unable to setup mail on my ipod. the major problem is that i
    havent been able to find a glossary that explains the terminology used
    in the setup instructions. i need definitions & then how to supply what
    information required to that particular item.
    i have no idea what a server host, outgoing server, incoming host,
    smpt, imap, pop nor any of the other terms used within the setup pages.
    please explain the procedure, along with definitions of what it is that
    i'll be doing step by step.
    all i can tell you is that through either safari or internet explorer,
    i use mail.com as my email service.
    thanks for your help.

    I had the same problem... I just bought an iMac, it is my first Mac ever, but I have been using iPhones since 2008 and iPads since 2011. 
    OS X would not allow me to log into my yahoo acct thru system preferences/mail, contacts, calendars.
    I got everything resolved....but I did NOT have to change my Yahoo password...all I had to do was use Safari to log into my Yahoo webmail account and it asked me if I wanted to add this account to mail.app on my iMac.  I said "Yes" and it presented me with choices of what I wanted to be active (you can choose mail, notes, calendar, etc) I just chose mail only.
    However I do have two yahoo accounts, and I could not use the same procedure with my secondary yahoo account.
    With the secondary yahoo acct, I tried using Safari webmail to prompt me to add the acct, like it did with my first yahoo acct.  But no go.  So I went back to system preferences/mail, contacts, calendars.  Still no go. 
    I finally got my second yahoo acct set up using sys pref, but I had to set it up as "Other Acct" not as a "Yahoo" acct.
    Hope this helps!

  • SAP CRM E-Mailing with MS Outlook 2007

    Hi everyone,
    I just came to know that some people have trouble with E-Mail and MS Outlook 2007. Things have changed a little in the MS Office World and so the One-to-One E-Mail integration will not continue to work without a little change to your MS Outlook 2007 Installation.
    Please have a look at this post to make you aware of the changes needed.

    Please post to the group here if you still have trouble
    All the best

    HI Arno,
    I asked our CRM guys but because we are doing workforce management and that required server based integration..
    Do you have any idea for that ?

    unable to sync mail accounts to Outlook because email accounts are in use by iPhone.  How to close mail account settings on iPhone.

    I've rec'd a few errors related to syncing Mail, but none have had this specific wording. If you haven't already, try quitting Mail before syncing. Also, make sure that you're not in your Settings areas on the iPhone before syncing. Hope this helps!

  • CANNOT SETUP MAIL WITH YAHOO ACCOUNT

    I've tried over and over to try and setup my mail account on Mail and it always ends up saying that it it failed to login into the mail server "plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com." I retyped all the account information and double-checked to make sure the user name and password was correct but the same thing happened. I don't have a Yahoo Plus account, just a regular one so I tried putting in "pop.mail.yahoo.com and once again, no juice. May I please get some help with this??

    no one knew why i couldn't get my messages from the pop server at att/yahoo into my mail on my mac. there were no answered questions to the support topic why can i see mail activity....messages on the server, but not coming into the mail box? sending is fine, but for some reason, it suddenly stopped 3 days ago and for 3 days i searched for a fix. the only way i found this was a mail access error on the web mail thru att.yahoo where my messages showed up (they were also showing up on the i phone, not the mac)...had to verify the email....and while waiting, i found the att yahoo help page that cleared the whole problem
    not removing files and putting them back in while opening and shutting mac....all the ports and ssls were checked and correct
    apparently you have to clean your cache
    totally all att's fault
    Web Mail - How do I clear my browser's cache?
    It's true, a clogged cache can slow down and even stop your browser. Who wants that? Not us. Let's get to work clearing your cache. Which browser are you using? Instructions are included below for each of these:
    Firefox 2.x for Windows or Mac
    1. For Windows or Mac, click Tools and select Clear Private Data.
    2. In the window that opens, select whichever items you'd like to clear. When you're done, click Clear Private Data Now.
    Safari 3 for Mac
    1. In the Safari menu, click Empty Cache. That's it!
    2. To also clear the History, click the History menu and click Clear History (at the bottom).

  • Mail synch with Outlook 2007 vs. Server

    Hey there, I'd like to sort out an issue I'm having with the eMail sync process between Outlook and my iPhone. I hope I'll be able to get this across ...
    I like to use my PC as my primary eMail machine, at the same time being able to synch my emails to the iPhone. What I don't like to see is my iPhone synching eMail directly with my eMail Server.
    I have connected the iPhone to the PC, using iTunes and I am synching contacts, calender and email through iTunes to the iPhone. However, it seems my iPhone is synching directly with my eMail Server (which sits at my ISP) rather than with my PC. Is there any way to stop this and to make sure the iPhone will synch eMail only with the PC not with the sever?
    Configuration is:
    PC with Vista, Outlook 2007
    iPhone 1.1.4
    Thx !

    There is no syncing of actual mail files through iTunes. The settings in iTunes for mail are to configure the Mail accounts on the phone.
    The Mail application is a mail client just as you would find on a computer. When you configure the mail account settings, the iPhone accesses your mail servers and retrieves/sends mail.

  • Snychronize only selected Mail-Accounts from Outlook?

    Hi there,
    I have about 15 POP3/IMAP-Accounts on by PC (Windows Vista, Outlook 2007). I only want to use two of them on my iPhone, however, when synchronising iTunes always synchronises all accounts from Outlook onto my iPhone. It is a bit annoying to always delete them manually from the iPhone (even when I only deactivate them on the iPhone, with the next synchronization they are all active again).
    Is there a way to choose which mail accounts to synchronize?
    Many thanks
    Christian

    Just turn of syncing of email accounts via iTunes. Note that the emails themselves are not synced via iTunes, only the email +account settings+. So, if you have the accounts you want on the phone, just uncheck the box in iTunes.
