Does email sync over iCloud also support sync of non iCloud email accounts?

I use mac, ipad and iphone with sync over iCloud. While ipad and iphone sync emails of both iCloud and non iCloud email accounts, email sync between mac and ios devices works only for iCloud email account.
Please clarify whether iCloud should sync emails of both iCloud and non iCloud email account across all apple devices (mac, iphone, ipad) or it is not designed to do so.
Thank you.

Thank you for clarification.
However, after rechecking everything again, I can cofirm that full sync of all email accounts (icloud and non icloud) on all apple devices works perfectly as long emails originate from ios device. Unfortunately, this does work if email is sent from mac.
Thanks again.

HT1296 When I sync my iphone with Windows 7, the contact moves to my computer, but the contact is not complete. No phone numbers. What am I doing wrong? I have also tried sync-ing with Yahoo, and that doesn't work either.

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

IPad2 is dead...worked fine, then when I tried to use it an hour later, the screen was black. Home button did nothing; on/off button did nothing. Tried charging overnight...still does nothing at all. Also tried syncing with my desktop; still nothing.

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have a mac book my iPhone 4 doesn't show up in devicesin iTunes so cannot sync. it has also stopped syncing wirelessly.

I have a mac book pro and iPhone 4. suddenly when i connect my iPhone 4 to my mac my phone doesn't show up in devices. it recognises it via iPhoto and uploads my photos but i cannot see it in iTunes so cannot sync. it has also stopped syncing wirelessly.

Using the USB cable, connect your phone to the computer you want to sync with. Let the phone sync.
In the left-hand pane, click on your iPhone under Devices.
Select the Summary tab along the top of the screen.
Under Option, is the checkbox for Sync with this Phone over Wi-Fi checked? If not, check it and click Apply.
If it was already checked, do the following:
Uncheck it
Click Apply
Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
Plug the iPhone into the computer again
Check the Sync over Wi-Fi checkbox
Click Apply
Disconect the iPhone from the computer
Now go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can sync wirelessly.

I have taken off/turned off iCloud on my mac mini but when I write an email and use contacts it will convert a non iCloud email to and iCloud email automatically. I really don't want this. Any way to stop this automatic conversion?

I have taken off/turned off iCloud on my mac mini (OS 10.8) but when I send an email and use contacts , it will convert the non - iCloud email to an iCloud email automatically. Anyway to stop this automatic conversation?

Robert...
the iCloud webserver wont accept my password for a .mac login, nor will it allow me to change it
See if you can change your password > Apple - My Apple ID
If that doesn't help, launch iTunes on your computer.
From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Reset warnings and Reset cache
Click OK.
Restart your computer.
If that that doesn't help...
Moreover, when I try to go into my .mac account on the web,
Delete all apple cookies and empty your browser cache.
See if you can access your account at iCloud.com

Sync chaos and rollback to good old non-iCloud times

Hi. I've got a problem with iCloud sync. I posess a pair of macbooks, an iPad and an iPhone. All those gadgets are syncing to the icloud: docs, pictures and music. I'm really unhappy with how they do it, because I've got no control over the process and I don't understand when what is going to be placed / removed from what gadget. The playlists I have in iTunes appear and disappear in an unpredictable way from my gadgets. Music is being copied, sometimes as file, sometimes as an iCloud alias, sometimes as nothing. Pictures I take - (well, I almost stopped working with pictures on mac, because after 20 years of working on the mac I totally fail to understand the "intuitive, self-organizing, protective, bla-bla-bla interface") - my pictures appear on the photostream, multiply themselves, disappear on their own, e.t.c. Address Book contacts are doubled, 3x, 4x, 10x-ed. Worse then that, I have - due to the chaos Apple had with the transition from .mac to .me 2 accounts, which contain lots of valuable stuff. Or 4? .mac, .me, .icloud and one which is not an email adress. And it's impossible to merge them (though was promised for years). Computer lives its own life, I'm excluded from using it.
Currently, I'm rolling back from 10.8.2 to 10.6.8, because I can't tolerate the OS bugs anymore. After seeing what's in the iOS6 I'm looking for the possibility to roll back to iOS4 my mobile devices as well - I don't want to have anything with iCloud. Does anyone know if it is possible? If not, I will consider to replace my digital ecosystem with something less crazy.

I have vaguely similar issues. Different but along the same lines and totally to do with iCloud. The day I "upgraded" to the cloud is the day I started wanting to smash my Mac. I have had calendar dates triple every single event on my calendar from the day I got my imac 3 years ago. I have had contacts and groups triple and quadruple. I have had notes which do not sync in VERY SPECIFIC ways (detailed in another post) which MAKES NO SENSE. Right now, If I type a new note on my Mac, it multiplies itself as I am typing the note, so by the time I have typed 4 lines I have 4 copies of the note, in varying stages of "doneness" based on how much was in the note at the instant it created itself. Then I have to delete 5+ notes every time I create a note? PLUS, a new note created on my MAC DOES NOT sync to the cloud or my iphone. But changes to existing notes do?????????
The Geniuses are no good. They are all parroting useless phrases which I am sure they have been told to say about the Cloud. No one will acknowledge that it is THEIR fault and that they could do something to at least let US, THEIR LOYAL USERS know that they know that something is not right.

My boyfriend borrowed my Iphone and changed my account by changed email and password. Also he created mail of icloud that is not my email. Now I've turned my Iphone. So I try to change mail account of icloud but it's still his account's icloud. Help me!

my boyfriend borrowed my Iphone and changed my account Apple ID by changed email and password to be his informations. Also he created mail account of icloud that is not my email. Now I've turned my Iphone. So I try to change mail account of icloud to be my mail but it's still his account's icloud. What should I do on this occer???
Sometimes I think that I want to create the new Apple ID by the same email but I cannot do that.
Help Me!!

Please answer me .
Now I created iCloud Mail Alias on iCloud which name [email protected] Then I want to switch iCloud Mail Alias to be iCloud IMAP.
My problem is I don't want that old mail which my boyfriend used to created - [email protected] and [email protected] - .
How can I do?
Please.

Does CS6 raw image converter also support PowerShot G1X MKII raw images?

I recently bought an PowerShot G1X MKII and always work with raw images. I have CS5 which does not support those raw images. Before upgrading to CS6 I wonder if anybody has experience with opening PowerShot G1X MKII raw images using ACR in CS6.

I just checked the supported camera list published by Adobe. It indicates that there is preliminary support for that camera in the latest version of Camera Raw. That version will not be compatible with Photoshop CS5. But you could download the DNG converter version 8.4 and convert those raw files to the DNG format and use them with what you already have. You could purchase Photoshop CS6 and install Camera Raw 8.4 and have support for your camera, albeit preliminary support. But new features that have been added to Camera Raw since the introduction of Photoshop CC will not be available to you. But since you don't have those features now that probably wouldn't matter. You could also add Lightroom to your workflow, turning to Photoshop CS5 when needed. Here is a link to the Adobe webpage that lists camera support:

Is there a way to get iCloud tabs to sync between my iPod touch and Safari for Windows?

I would like to know if there is a setting or something that I'm missing over...
I already have iTunes and the iCloud Control Panel on my Windows 8 computer. Is the iCloud Tab feature Mac-only or can I get it to sync with Safari for Windows? Thanks for the help.

OS X Lion and Windows 7 users can still sync Bookmarks and the Reading List with iOS devices via iCloud when using Safari 5.1. The iCloud Control Panel 2.1 for Windows also supports syncing Bookmarks with Internet Explorer 9, but not the Reading List as IE simply doesn’t have an equivalent feature.
While not as seamless as the iCloud Tabs feature, Bookmarks and Reading List can still be an effective way to share pages between your Windows 7 PC and your iOS devices; if you’re using Safari on Windows, the Reading List is best for storing and sharing one-time content while Bookmarks obviously are better suited for keeping track of pages that you may want to refer back to more than once.

According to this, I think you can.

ICloud won't sync with Office Documents on Windows Desktop - A huge limitation

I'm not able to sync my Macbook and iPhone to the Office documents on my Windows desktop. I want to use Pages on both my iPhone and Macbook to edit the Word documents I store on my Windows desktop.
This is very limiting and would force me to find another solution (I know many in this same situation). What will Apple do to address this?

Thanks Csound1. That's what I figured out. It is unfortunate, since I really wanted to use iCloud.
There are several other cloud services that support syncing documents between a Windows, OSX, and iOS platform without any restrictions. I could use them to cloud sync documents from my Windows desktop to either my iPhone or Macbook, and then use Pages, Numbers, or Keynote to update . The only tricky part is syncing it back to the cloud from my iPhone, which requires me to email the updates back and then manually update the sync file using sync management software (either Mac or Windows). Somewhat clugy and error prone, but it works until a better solution emerges. Perhaps a solution is around the corner -Microsoft is now developing new Office Suite products for iOS, OSX, and Windows, so perhaps this will be able to provide true cross platform compatability that many businesses need along with seamless cloud syncing.
I really hope Apple soon supports iCloud syncing of Office files to Windows. iCloud already supports syncing with Outlook on the Windows platform, so I can't see why Apple won't support syncing Office documents to a Windows platform. Every other cloud service supports this.

HT202667 I am ditching my non-Apple email address and want to stop using it. My husband's ID is his icloud email, why can't mine be?

I don't want to run two email addresses and want to use my icloud email address for all correspondence. Itunes keeps sending me emails to my old address and it won't let me change my Apple ID to my icloud address. My husband's is using his without any issues. Is there a way round this?

I'm afraid not. While people who started with iTools or MobileMe had their @mac.com/@me.com (and now @icloud.com) address as the ID from the start, and people who open a new Apple ID and iCloud account at the same time from the iCloud preference pane can choose to make the @icloud.com address the ID, if it's the case that your ID is a non-Apple email address you can change it to another non-Apple email address but you cannot change it to your @icloud.com address.
You can of course set up forwarding from the ID address to the @icloud.com address so that you only have to look in one place. However you should be aware that if the setup means that you can only be contacted by Apple at the @icloud.com address, then if you have a problem such as a forgotten password or a corrupted account, Apple can only contact you at an address you cannot access so it's essential to have a 'rescue address'.

Can not open iCloud on MBP? Want to PhotoShare. Set up in iPhone. Go to System Preferences, click on iCloud, get the message "move to iCloud", sign in, click on open iCloud", sign in again, and get only FindmyPhone?

Set up in iPhone. Go to System Preferences, click on iCloud, get the message "move to iCloud", sign in, click on open iCloud", sign in again, and get only FindmyPhone? Thus, when I go to Iphoto to set up photo sharing, it says I have to have icloud account-go to sys preferences--then i go through the loop again? Suggestions?

You're not going to be able to: you can't merge accounts or transfer iTunes purchases from one Apple ID to another: but there is no problem about using two IDs.
Use your ex-MobileMe email address (which is also an Apple ID) for iCloud for syncing email, contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and PhotoStream.
Use your other Apple ID as before for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match.
There's no conflict about doing this, and you won't even notice as Keychain will log you in with the correct ID in each case. It's also better security not to have your iTunes login also your email address, given the number of complaints about hacked iTunes accounts.

When I delete an email from my hotmail account in the 'mail' application on my MacBook Pro, it is not deleted from the same 'mail' application on my iPhone 4s which my hotmail account has also been added. I thought my emails were synced over iCloud?

It is so frustrating because I cannot understand what is wrong. When I add an event to my calender on my iPhone it appears in my calender on my MacBook which is perfect and very convenient. The same thing occurs with reminders; everything syncs perfectly here. However when I delete an email from my MacBook from the 'mail' appliaction it doesn't delete from the same built-in application on my iPhone. This is extremely frustrating as I have to delete the same email twice on two different devices. I'd appreciate any feedback that would help resolve this problem!

Calendars (and contacts) can "sync" between your MBP and your iPhone through iCloud because they really live on the iCloud servers and the two devices are clients. iCloud can accomplish much the same trick for email messages because the email really resides on iCloud email servers.
If the email resides on some other server, that server is responsible for whatever syncing will be done. IMAP servers like the iCloud servers are built for such syncing; other mail servers may or may not be. iCloud would not be involved with email other than iCloud email.
I understand Hotmail has been changing how their email servers are accessed. Check with Hotmail support for any changes you may need to make to keep up.

ICloud will not sync my contacts or calendar in Mac Office 2011. ICloud does however sync to my PC at work running Microsoft office 2010 and also to my IPad and IPhone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately Office for Mac does not support the correct protocols to work with iCloud.

A few months ago when I switched over to icloud from mobile me I set up my icloud with a new email address and now I can't get my calendars to sync with my iphone. I can't cancel either account-the icloud or mobile me.

Please help! I have two separate email addresses -my old mobile me and the new icloud and now nothing is syncing with my iphone. I'm not sure how to get everything back to syncing the way it was before I changed everything over to icloud.

If you really did migrate from MobileMe to iCloud, you would have the same address as before.
It sounds as though you didn't actually migrate from MobileMe to iCloud, you just started up a brand new iCloud account.
You won't be able to access MobileMe now. If you failed to move everything over to iCloud properly, then all the data and the account has been deleted as Apple said it would at the end of July.
To get everything to sync, you need to make sure all your devices and computers are logged into the same iCloud account. Possibly what has happened is some are still using the old (now deleted) MobileMe account and some are using the new iCloud account.

Does email sync over iCloud also support sync of non iCloud email accounts?
