  • How do I change/add a new Default account to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars/Contacts ?

    I've set up my home PC and using MS-Outlook to harmonize email from several accounts.  I want any Contacts added through the iPhone-4 to synchronize with a specific email account (e.g. it is Yahoo now and I want to change it to another.) However, in Settings-Mail,Contacts,Calendars-Contacts there is no button or other Edit feature that allows or enables change of Default Account.  Any experience or ideas for me?

    Wish i could call that a good try,... No my other email accounts don't appear in that Default Accounts list. So, I'm forced to delete those email accounts and reconnect them, EXCEPT when i do that any contacts in the iPhone will also be deleted and only available in a backup, which will probably cancel the new account set up,.. Want to try again?

  • Cannot add a new email account, and hence icloud account. When i go into Settings - Mail, accounts, calendars,  the option to add a new account cannot be clicked (ghosted). I also have iCloud Settings ghosted (unclickable). Cannot change in itunes also.

    Cannot add a new email account, and hence i have no way of creating an iCloud account (very frustrating). I had the same problem with iOS 4.3 but i had no email account to create as i set both up when i bought the iPhone 4. After adding a company email and a gmail account (both wok perfectly) i noticed that the option to create more email accounts had been ghosted (unclickable). This didn't worry me at the time. However, iCloud needs me to create one in here so i can access the cloud which i desperately want the ability to do. When i go into Settings -> Mail, accounts, calendars,  the option to add a new account cannot be clicked (ghosted). I also have iCloud in the iPhone Settings ghosted (unclickable). I have same problem in itunes on Mac OSX. Surely restoring isn't the solution as i restored my iphone when changing from iOS 4.3 -> 5. Please help?

    Go to
    Settings,
    General,
    Restrictions, type in your Restriction Password,
    Accounts, tick Allow Changes.
    Press the back key a few times till you're back in Settings, you should see iCloud is now highlight able, now go to Mail Contacts and Calenders and add your email account as per norm.
    Hope this helps.

  • Settings Mail, contacts  Not showing Email Accounts

    My email accounts continue to "check for mail".  I'm on my network at home.  All other devices are working fine on the network.  When I go to Settings>Mail, Contacts to check the servers, when I select Mail, Contacts, my IPAD locks up.  Any ideas how to fix this?

    Hi James and welcome...
    Sync your Contacts with iTunes.
    Connect your iPad to your computer. Make sure you see the iPad under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Select the Info tab. You should see *Mobile Me* under the Info tab.
    Select: Sync Address Book Contacts. Scroll down to select Mail accounts, Calendars, etc.
    Click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.

  • Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen closes immediately? I have tried Restore and all software up to date... help!, Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen closes immediately? I have tried Restore and all software up to date... help!

    When I go to Settings > 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars'  the screen closes immediately returning to the home screen? I have tried resetting the iphone - no change, I then restored the iphone completely - no change (all software up to date.) please help!

    I have the same problem with iPhone4, iOS5. The only workaround i have found was to disable the contacts and calender for the iCloud account. So much for being able to sync all my Mac products. At least with Mobileme everything but my windows products synced and worked OK.

    Hi,
    the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support  (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

  • I want to delete my gmail on my iPad, yet my iPad won't allow me to access the option. I went on my iPad settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars, although i cannot tap on iCloud, Gmail, or Add Account... How do i fix this?

    I want to delete/sign out my gmail on my Ipad, but my ipad won't allow me to delete it.
    Example:
    I tapped on Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, although I cannot tap on iCloud, Gmail, and Add Account...
    how do I fix this?

    Sorry, you said Gmail. If that's the case, you can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • System Settings - Mail Contacts Calendars - iCloud

    After switching to Mountain Lion, I have created a new Apple ID with @icloud.com domain. I try to set it in System Settings -> Mail Contacts Calendars -> iCloud and it works for Contacts , Calendars, Safari, Documents but not for Email. When clicking on the Email Icon the progress indicator is rotating and after few seconds an AlertView shows with message "Imposible to Activate Mail".
    Anyone has the same problem ?

  • Check SMTP SETTINGS:tap settings:mail, contacts, calendars: no respons, dead

    Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
    However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
    Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.

  • Exchange Mail -  Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars

    Hello. I am in Canada and have several email accounts set up here......Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars......
    I have my Telus set up as POP (I had to do a trick to avoid IMAP), 4 Gmail accounts and my iCloud account. They all work fine at home at other local Hot Spots.
    BUT for some reason when I am in the USA I can only receive mail most of the times but never am I able to send.
    Any one know why....and what is the fix for it?
    Thank You

    Having the same problem with mail on 4th gen iPod touch.
    There's a discussion going on over at the iPod forum on the same thing:
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1392
    Seems this is most likely a gmail SMTP problem with 3rd party mail clients, including Apple Mail and iPod, iPhone mail.
    Just browsed gmail forums and found this:

  • Settings - Mail,Contacts,Calendars - I just return to the home screen

    When I attempt to go to Settings - Mail,Contacts, Calendars, I just return immediately to the home screen
    I need to set a password on my email account - how do I go about this if I cannot get through Settings - Mail,Contacts,Calendars

    Problem alleviated by doing a factory restore.  This does seem like a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
    I really expected Apple software to be more robust than that.
    Thanks for all your suggestions
