Do we get a .mac account with the iphone?

Do we get a .mac account with the iphone so we can get the folders in mail?

I don't believe so. If you have a .Mac account you'd have to set it up manually through the iPhone. I believe it's IMAP?

It depends on what iMac you have. If it is an old PPC (G4 orG5) iMac then no further upgrades are possible. If it an Intel iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:

You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard):

Can not send email from .mac account from the iPhone

I'm having problems sending email from my iPhone from my .Mac Account and says the outgoing server timed out. Any Suggestions?

This error message indicates you are not using the correct server port for .Mac's SMTP server.
Did you transfer the account settings from your Mac to the iPhone automatically via the iTunes sync process or did you manually create your .Mac account on the iPhone?
If the former, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP Server selection, select the Server Settings button below for .Mac's SMTP server.
If 25 is available in the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting and then re-sync your iPhone making sure your .Mac account is selected for account settings to be transferred to the iPhone.

HT5312 I cannot use my apple id because every time I get into my account with the correct password, it prompts me for security questions which I've forgotten my answers. It does not let me reset my security questions even using a rescue email. Help!!!

I feel like I'm in an infinite loop. I have all of the information correct except my security questions -- I set them up quickly and forgot what I answered. Per the FAQs on Apple's website, I should be able to get a rescue email that allows me to reset the answers to the questions, however all I get is a rescue email to reset my password. This is my first time trying to use this account and I can't get around the security questions. Can anyone help me? I just want to download some music to my mini iPad.

Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

I cannot get anything to work with the iPhone Configuration Utility

I have to set up 30 ipad 2's with restrictions set on them for the students...i created the configuration profile and click install and nothing happens...i have been to the extensive (two article) help tutorial...i have done everything it says to do...i cannot email the config to them because we don't want them using email...so not wanting to set up 30 ipads with an email addy...was wondering if there was another program with better tech support articles and is easy to set up and use...this is kinda useless...

Jaheedi, it sounds like you've tried a lot to make this work....my experience has been that in mlost cases if a profile fails to install it is usually due to a required payload not having been configured. It can happen if a payload category gets opened(General for example) inadvertently and then payloads within that category are not completed.(Identifier for example), then the profile will fail to install. Also, I've only got it to reliably work over a USB connection ( we use encrypted profiles with a "with authentication" removal option).....you might try installing a very basic profile with just the General Payload category expanded ( and required payloads completed) and see if that works..if that works, it probably is one of the other categories is incomplete. If you haven't tried the above, I hope this helps a bit.

We need to get you moved. This forum is for mini-tower Macs built between 1998 and 2005 and doesn;t get as much traffic ("eyeballs on the problem") as the forums for newer Macs.
Please do "About this Mac" from you Apple menu and tell us what that says for "processor" and Mac OS version. Looks like this:
or this for later Mac OS versions:
With that we can figure out which of the two iMac forums you need and get the Hosts to move your post.

I recently changed my internet service provider and my e mail address. I updated my iTunes account with the new e mail. Now I cannot get updates on my devices, because the login box on each still contains my old e mail. How can I change this please?

Try tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your devices (Settings > Store if they aren't on iOS 6+) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on them.

How do you get FaceTime to work between two Mac's with the same email address? Thanks, Mike

How do you get FaceTime to work between two Mac's with the same email address?

I would like to know the same thing. How does facetime work between a MacBook Pro and an I Pad that run off the same email address/mac id

I tried to make another account on my school Macbook Pro, made the Admin, account with the same name as the one I was using, deleted it and then all my desktop data is gone.

So, the problem is,
I used these school Macs right? They're school handed and stuff. Then one day I decided I want admin so I do this thing where I "reset" everything on the Macbook using this Video (at the bottom) http://www.wikihow.com/Reset-a-Lost-Admin-Password-on-Mac-OS-X
Then I do it, it takes me to the new User. That's not what I want so I shut down, then made an account with the same name as my current account (let's call it Y). Then I delete Y on purpose. I deleted it because I didn't want my school to know I had this account. Realise I wanted it again so I made an account, let's call it X then when I have X I deleted Y. Then I realised my AirDrop name said X so then I made a new account, this time let's call it Z, with Z I delete X and then I deleted Z because I don't want my school to know I have Z but then Z is also the same name as my main/current account. Somehow or something I delete my current account leaving me with Z. Now I can see my account and stuff but don't know how to restore it.
Picture will be provides later.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE SCHOOL TOMORROW AND I DON'T WANT MY PARENTS TO FIND OUT.

It is a bad idea to hack computer passwords when you don't own the computer
Good luck with the school and the parents.

How do I install a new Exchange account with the same address as my old Exchange account and have my bcc mail not go to the old account?

I have an iPhone 5s running iOS8 and an iPad, up to date. I have recently changed my mail server but not my email address. My "old" mail account is an Exchange account and I have also set up a "new" Exchange account with the same address but with the new mail server details. When I receive outside, third party emails they are routed correctly to the "new" Exchange account but when I bcc myself or receive other emails from any account with my domain name the emails are routed to my "old" Exchange account. I have changed the default account settings to the "new" Exchange account. Also, if I send myself an email from my laptop, through the new mail service provider, it is routed correctly on my laptop but incorrectly on my iPhone and iPad. It appears as though the Apple products have cached my email address and routing and won't look to pick up the new mail server details. I don't see anything in the mail account settings or contacts that allows me to refresh or clear the cache. The result is I now have mail in 2 accounts. If I can get the misdirected mail from the odl account to the new one I will then make the old account inactive. Anyone have any ideas on this one?
Thanks in advance for your time and ideas,
DAA

Can you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?
