Email account setup problem with Messages app

Having recurring problems lately with a Rogers pop3 email account not syncing properly in the Playbook Messages app, unless I'm on a wifi connection. Continually tells me it's encountered an unexpected problem connecting to the Rogers server when only bridged through my phone. Is something screrwing up, or is the app designed for wifi only? I don't recall this problem originally.
Also having all kinds of fun setting up the account and having it complete the process properly. It tells me it can't connect with the server/it's not available at this time, blah blah blah. Tried just entering the email address and letting the tablet do its thing; have used multiple settings in the Advanced setup, as verified by using the EVAT tool (though it seems to only have PC, not Playbook options). Again, maybe this is just a wifi-only issue(?), but even on wifi setup seems iffy.
Duh

Rogers has different setting for home and mobile use and it can be painful to deal with
Basically they lock it down for one use or the other and not for both.
It was inteneded to be used only with your home PC and not a mobile device and some ISP have made changes to allow it
POP protocol isnt that robust and if possible use IMAP or better to use exchange active sync if possible (not all ISP use IMAP or EAS)
I gave up on it and switched to outlook.com

More than one problem with messages app

I'm trying to get this Messages app to work properly on my iphone and macbook pro. I have a few problems that are just very annoying and I can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong. I'm sure it is some stupid setting I am overlooking, but I have exhausted my brain for the day.
1st problem - I can send and recieve messages on my mac and iphone. That works fine, but there are no notifications on my mac when I send a message from my iphone. The message shows up in the app, but it doesn't give me a notification or a badge that there are new messages. I have it turned on in the settings, but it just won't work...
2nd problem - My phone is the only one that is working. My whife has been sending me imessages from the other room for the past hour testing out the app and I get the messages on my phone, but none are showing up on my mac. I thought they were supposed to go to both?
I really hope someone can help me here. I am very frustrated with the whole thing.

HI,
On the iPhone in Settings > Messages > Received At > Caller ID there should be two "IDs"
One is the iPhone's own number and the other should be the Apple ID.
If the Apple ID is ticked then iMessages sent from the Phone should sync to the Messages app.
However incoming iMessages to the iPhone via it's Number will not sync to the Messages app.
This is apparently coming with the iOS 6 release.
For the Messages App check System Preferences > Notification and the app name and check if it supposed to be using the Dock badge, make sound or display Notifications (Alerts or Banners)

Email account setup problem

For years I was able to get my work emails forwarded to my BB. On Tuesday evening of this week, I stopped getting the emails and when I checked my service provider email set up list, my work email was deactivated. When I clicked the icon to reactivate it, I entered my password as it requested and I received a message that my password was incorrect. So I tried it again with the same result. So I deleted it, thinking I would just re-add the account. WRONG. It would not let me do so. The process to add is different from how I last added an account, as an option for a work address is now via web access. My employer recently changed its web access to an OWA, so I decided to go that route. I am still unable to add the account, and my local IT group doesn't know what to do.....HELP! I am going to Europe in 2 weeks and was counting on being able to get my work emails while I am gone. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

if IT knows the issue based on the links i posted above , you cannot integrate your email as OWA.
you cna try this instead, again IT will od this for you.

basically you can create a Blackberry email address and then have your IT set forwarding to that account or use desktop rediretcor as mentioned by your IT

Struggling with POP email account setup

I'm struggling to get my POP email accounts setup on my new iPhone. Seems like a great device, but without email, it's useless to me.
I've setup these same 4 email accounts dozens of times on different computers. I've entered all the Host names, passwords, and advanced settings (for the first email account). I have two problems. I can't send from any of my email accounts. One is a POP3 account and my primary email on my iPhone. I seem to receive messages but cannot send. I have two SWBell/Yahoo accounts which can receive, but won't send.
Second problem is that I'm trying to setup a 4 account which is a POP account, but it won't let me set this one up. It keeps coming back with "Cannot Connect Using SSL". If I say "Yes" to the question about trying to setup without SSL, it just goes away for a couple of minutes working, then gives me the same error.
Surely I can't be the only one whose having these problems. Thanks in advance for any help!!!
Regards,
Ross

For the first 3 accounts the ISPs probably block SMTP connections from outside their network. The test of this is if it works connected to your home WiFi network (if you have one) but not on EDGE. Note also that the SMTP username/password on the iPhone says "optional", but it is actually required when off-network.
If you are not connected via WiFi you can use AT&T's SMTP server when connected via EDGE. It is cwmx.com, and does not require a username or password.
On the 4th account you haven't given any real information to help you. Assuming you have all of the server names correct you probably have the wrong encryption method. You mentioned SSL, but it could also be TLS or NTLM (or others that are not supported by the iPhone). Also, if it is a MS Exchange account the server may not be configured to support IMAP, which is required form the iPhone connecting to Exchange.

Bold 9900 Internet email account setup

I've look at a lot of post on this subject but no luck.
I have just taken delivery of a Bold 9900 and put in my EE sim (UK). Out of the box phone upgraded to 7.1 Bundle 2061 and everything seemed to go OK.
Phone, texts, wifi, browser all work fine.
Trying to get it to link to my hotmail account and no luck.
Setup - Email Accounts - just asks me for enterprise account details which I don't have.
Go into email icon and select options, email account management, get the message "unable to open email set-up application. Contact service provider" which I did an dthey said its a BBerry problem. (helpful)
Tried to go to www.blackberry.com/integrate and mobile.blackberry/com/integrate as I've seen in a few logs and I see nothing pointing me towards Communications which I think is what I'm meant to be looking for.
Bit lost now. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry to tell you, but they fobbed you off. Refer:

Regardless of if the problem is with EE (which I suspect) or with BB, EE remains your sole channel for formal support on the matter. If they cannot resolve it, then they must escalate formally to BB via channels to which only they have access. Consider -- you pay EE for all of your services, you pay BB directly nothing at all. EE is responsible for all of your service delivery, and all of your formal support, even if that means they need to escalate to BB to resolve your issue.
Cheers, and Good Luck!

How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?

Hello all,
How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?
When I go here: Mail > Preferences Mail > Accounts
I got the message that I needed to delete it from my Internet Accounts.
When I go here: System Preferences > Internet Accounts > select the account >
I cannot select or click the minus sign on the bottom left to delete the account because it does not appear in the list.
Yet the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
The email account no longer appears in the left column where all my email accounts are in Apple Mail as I have deleted that domain and no longer use it, so the email was deleted at the server level. However, again, the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
This is driving me bananas!
Thank you for any help you can provide!
~ Angela

If you haven't already done so, please quit and relaunch Mail. See whether the account goes away.

Problem with message count

hello ,
I have problem with message count, in my inbox there are more than 0 messages but i got result of
Folder inbox = store.getFolder("Inbox")
int c =inbox.getMessageCount()
of c is 0
i.e i got c as zero rather than 5.

I am seeing the same thing and I agree with MathiasF's observation. My count seems to increase when I do a search for mail on the server. This has happened previously (iOS 5.x) but ending the Mail app always fixed it. The only way I can correct the count now is if I turn off sync for Mail on the Exchange account and re-enable. This clears my mail and causes my phone to go out and redownload. Rebooting and resetting the iPhone has not helped.
I'm on Sprint - 32GB White iPhone 4S running iOS 6.0 (10A403)

Problem with iBooks app on iPhone

Having a major problem with iBooks app. Can only get free classic books but nothign contemporary. Cannot update the app either. Works perfectly on my ipad! Should I delete the app and reload? Will I losse all the books I already have??

It is true that all purchases should share a single Apple ID. It is also true that both iOS and OS X allow only one iCloud account per user. And it is true than every Apple ID has an iCloud account, and every iCloud account an Apple ID [1]. Most unfortunately, it is also true that many (most?) Apple customers have multiple Apple IDs (even if they don't know it - I have 4 [2]).
So far, so simple. Here is the catch. On both iOS and OS X the Apple ID for purchases need not match the Apple ID for account-specific iCloud services. Life is much nicer if they do match, but they don't have to. Part of the bug I ran into was related to a configuration error, probably arising during Mavericks install over Mountain Lion, that gave iBooks my user account's iCloud services Apple ID rather than the iOS/iTunes store Apple ID.
Apple's identity management is a mess of almost unfathomable proportion -- the sort of mess that every smart exec runs from. I'm certain it's gummed up by contracts with rights holders, disparate internal systems, unfortunate choices and a nest of secondary assumptions. It would take a will of iron and a lot of cleverness to solve. I'm curious whether Tim Cook will force the fix.
[1] Curiously, however, an iCloud account does not need to have an email address, and the iCloud account email address need not match the associated Apple ID. This is yet another unfortunate edge case of the Apple ID mess.

Hi, ddddda
I've got the same problem, same rate.
I called to Apple Support and she recommended me to report by this link.

Within 6 hrs, Apple replied me with this.

Dear Charin,
Josh here from the iTunes Store.
I understand your son made a purchase accidentally that you would like refunded. When it comes to your money, I can certainly appreciate how important it is to feel that you are treated fairly, and I would be more than happy to help you out with this today.
Please read my entire email as I have included information about your refund, what was purchased and how to avoid these type of purchases in the future.
Charin, the charges in question are for in-app purchases. An in-app purchase is a purchase that can be made within an Application on an iPhone or an iPod Touch.
In-App purchases are items you can buy that will assist you in advancing in the game you're playing. Some examples of In App Purchases are: bonus game levels or maps, additional experience points, subscriptions, and recurring services.
The Application "Diamond Dash" was free, and this is the Application that was used to purchase the in-app items. The in-app purchases were for "1000 Gold" to be used when playing "Diamond Dash."
Please note that there is a 15 minute window after initially entering in your password, where the password is not requested again. Once this time has passed, you will be requested for your password, and also to confirm the purchase by tapping the Buy button.
To prevent any further in-app purchases from being made unintentionally, please set the in-app restriction on your device(s) as soon as possible. You can set the in-app restriction on an iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad by following these steps;
1) Click on the "Settings" Application
2) Now from the list of options click on "General"
3) Scroll down and click on "Restrictions"
4) Under the heading "Allowed Content" be sure that "In-App Purchases" is "OFF."
After reviewing the circumstances of your case, we determined that issuing you a refund for your unintentional purchase of "1000 Gold" is an appropriate exception to the App Store Terms and Conditions, which state that all sales are final. In five to seven business days, a credit of $99.99 should be posted to the credit card that appears on the receipt for that purchase.
The iTunes Store provides a warning message that asks if you are sure that you want to buy an item. This warning can be turned off. If you would like to make sure that this warning is on, you can reset the warnings in the iTunes Store by following the instructions in this article:
Resetting iTunes Store warnings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1734
Additionally, you can make modifications on certain devices that will prevent them from making purchases:
iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch: Understanding Restrictions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
Please let me know if you require any further assistance with this issue, as if you do, I would be glad to help. Thank you very much for being part of the iTunes Store family, Charin. I hope you have a great day.
Sincerely,
Josh
iTunes Store / Mac App Store Customer Support
Please Note: I work Sunday 7 AM - 3:15 PM, Monday 4:00 PM - 11:30 PM, Tuesday 3:30 PM - 11:30 PM, and Friday 7:00 AM - 3:15 PM

Problems with Remote App on iOS 4?

I have a new iPhone 4 and tried to use the Remote App in Connection with Apple TV. While I'am able to pair the remote app with Apple TV, I cannot use it properly. It works for a while, then it get's disconnected with a message that maybe a Firewall might be activated in the Router.
I have no problems with Remote App connected to my iTunes Library. I also tried it with a iPod Touch which is still on iOS 3.1.3, no problems to connect to the Apple TV from there as well.
Are there any known problems with iOS 4 and Apple TV?

i don't experience any dropping of connection etc.
May I ask what wifi hardware you use? It might be an wifi issue, but one which is only related with the "Bonjour" protocol which seems to be used for the Remote App. I found this thread which is older (iOS 3) but describing exactly the same problems:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2048555&start=0&tstart=0
bear in mind that the iphone4 is now "n" wifi compatible (2.4Ghz), so could it be that the "n" part of your network is poor and thus why you only see the problem on the iphone4 ?
At least it is not poor when using it from other devices or moving a lot of data in other Apps. It is all Apple Hardware (nothing older than 2 years), and maybe that's the problem. I never had network hardware which made so much trouble, as Apples Airport series. I wouldn't wonder if it is an incompatibility between a new wifi chip in the iPhone 4 and a older Revision of an Airport device. But I don't know how to check - is there a system.log on the iPhone which I can access somehow?

I'm having problems with my app, plants vs. zombies 2. It'll open and stay open for a few seconds then shut down. Help please.
