Does using the reset setting function delete the email accounts
I want to use the reset settings function but I am worried that it will delete my email accounts.
If you are talking about a Reset where you hold the home and sleep buttons till you see the Apple logo, no that will not delete your email accounts. If you are referring to a RESTORE of your iPhone as a new phone, yep that will clear the email accounts.

Can anyone help[ me to reset the mail setting on my mac book. Ever since my move the icloud I can't send or receive mail from my account, only from icloud?
Many thanks.
IanGreetings Ian,
Lion is required for iCloud which is a bit of information they tell you when you do the migration from MobileMe to iCloud: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
Because you are using an older version of OS X, Mail is attempting to talk to the old MobileMe mail servers when iCloud is on a different set of servers.
You will have to reconfigure Mail to use the new servers.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts
Click on the MobileMe account listed on the left.
Go to Advanced and remove the check mark for "enable"
Click the plus sign at the bottom left and add a new account
Enter in your full @me.com e-mail address and then the password
Hold down the "option" key on your keyboard and click the "continue" button (this allows you to manually enter e-mail server information)
For "account type" choose "IMAP"
Fill in the rest of the fields following http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
Assuming all your information is present and you can send and receive you can return to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and remove the old MobileMe account.
Hope that helps. -

Setting Comcast as Default Email account Wind 8.1
How do I set up comcast as default email in new computer w/ windows 8.1?
OK I have a Dell laptop with 8.1 on it. As near as I can tell, the Mail app will use the email account address you use to sign in to the computer with. It's intended to use your Microsoft account, if you have one. Now this is just a guess on my part------set up your computer to use the Comcast email address as the sign in credentials, and that should be the default email address you send from when you click on a "mail-to" link. I can't find any setting in the Windows Mail 8.1 app that lets you set any account as the default sending address.
When you send it will use whatever account you are looking at that you have set up in it. -
Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer. Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server. The new password is working on my home computer. I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.
I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.
Thank you,

How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas
I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option? -
How do I set up a POP3 email account on my iPhone5s, using iOS 7.1.1. All the help I have found tells me to select IMAP or POP but I am not given the choice. I need to be able to set 'Don't delete from mail server' which can't be done in IMAP.

Okay.
Then set it up. -

I am trying to change my email address for an Apple ID and it is saying that it is already in use. I then sign in with that Apple ID and it says that the account is not set up yet, I don't want to set up the account, but I do want to use the email address in my original Apple ID! HELP!
Welcome to the Apple community.
Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc. -
Does facetime use the email address or the phone number to make a call
Does facetime use the email address or the phone number to place a call
Depends on what the receiver has set up on his or her device.
Also depends on the device. iPhone uses the number, iPad, iPod touch uses Email. But can be set up for phone number too if the person has an iPhone.
Hope this helps.

HT2731 Does using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPod touch use my phones data plan?
Does using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPod touch use my phones data plan?
If you are using the internet then it's eating away at your data plan, irrespective of your Apple ID.

My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new i tunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted whin i sync it to itunes after purchasing new music?
I have the same problem (deleted email account). I think I mistakenly set up an account when I was buying an Apple product online, not realizing that it would be the same ID as my iTunes.
What is the way to actually contact Apple?
I have been clicking around in circles for hours! Will I have to pay them to resolve this? I don't have any products still have applecare . . . -
I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?
If you abandon one of the Apple IDs you will also basically be abandoning any content that you have acquired with that Apple ID. Content can only be updated and re-downloaded with the Apple ID that was used to buy it. Apple will not combine the content of Apple IDs and Apple will not transfer the content from one Apple ID to another Apple ID.

Numbers does not open with the main user after installing mountain lion. It works flawlessly when I use the second account on my mac. What got corrupted in the admin-account, something in the user-library? How can I fix it? I´m kinda desperate... (the same happens with the other iWork-Apps!)
Looking forward to hearing from somebody with a littlemore expertise than me, Chrisyou can remove preferences files by navigating to the Preferences folder for your user as follows:
0) Quit ALL iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers)
1) from the Finder select the menu item "Go > Go To Folder…". This will bring up a dialog:
2) enter the path "~/Library/Preferences" (no double quotes)
3) find the files:
com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist
com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist
com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
and move these to the trash. I would NOT empty until later.
4) restart Numbers
