Email not working with Apple ID

Have iPod touch 5th Gen. In setting up Apple ID to iMessages, it states my email is already linked to Apple ID. However, the Apple ID wouldn't accept my acct. So I tried putting in my password with the Apple ID, changing password and finding Apple ID. It states there is no apple ID with this email but when creating my acct it won't let me use email to apple ID as it says its in use. Any ideas?

It is a different ID. My daughter's email worked with her Apple ID to do iMessage and she has same Apple ID as I do for iTunes because she was not old enough at time to have her own email. So this should not be the case.

My gmail suddenly is not working with Apple Mail.
It said my username or password is wrong, but it was okay this morning.
Nevertheless, I deleted my gmail account, and re-setup it using Internet Accounts from System Preference.
However, I got the beow message:
There was a problem setting up the Mail account. An unknown error occurred.
I am sure my username and password are correct because I just login it using Safari.
Does anyone know what the cause is?
Please help~~~

Gmail not syncing in mac mail is a problem that is also in snow leopard since the new year.
OSX 10.6.8 is the highest OS that will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo. Do not try to install Mavericks on this machine! I will install, but turns it into a dinosaur and many programs will no longer run.
I had an issue with Mac Mail not syncing with imap.gmail.com. and Safari not being able to find apple.com.
This was resolved by working with an upper level tech support member for several hours deleating particular system library files, uninstalling most addons, reseting system network settings and a whole lot more! (too much to name here)
Thank you Apple Tech Support.

Why is Adobe Flashplayer not working with Apple? Do you have an other flash program you recommend?

Why is Adobe Flashplayer not working with Apple? Do you have an other flash program you recommend?

Thank you for your interest in Adobe Flash Player. Unfortunately Apple does not allow Flash Player to be installed on iPhone or iPad.
May I add, this is the answer I get When I try to Download Adobe Flash Player
You get the message because that is exactly the situation. Apple has not allowed any Flash on iOS devices.
What site are you trying to see? Many sites now provide Flash alternatives. For example, if you want to listen to Pandora, instead of using the Flash on the Pandora website, instead you download the Pandora app for the iPad.
In the future, even if Apple wants to add Flash to the iPad, it won't be able to because Adobe will no longer be making it at all, for any mobile device:

If you often go to sites that use a lot of Flash and they don't have an alternative, you should write to them and tell them to stop using Flash.

Home sharing does not work with apple tv

Can anyone help me. I used to be able to stream all content from my home master computer to my Apply TV. Now it suddenly does not work.
Apple TV itself works just fine. I can also airplay using it with out IPADs.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes. Reset the modem/router. Reset Appletv. Tried with Norton disabled. etc.
Nothing seems to work.
I keep getting the 'Turn on your home sharing in Itunes' message. But it is on.
Help is appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Sometimes just disabling Norton isn't enough, you may need to hunt down every last file it has written to your computer then re-install iTunes. I understand Norton can be quite a nasty little intrusion.
I know very little about PC's or security software as I have neither, but the following article might help you.

IPhone (3,3G,4) does not work with Apple Universal Dock.

I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch that has been upgraded to iOS 4. My iPod Touch will no longer sync via the Apple Universal Dock. Also, my new iPhone 4 also will not sync via the Apple Universal Dock.

Trust a geek not to give up. I decided to get to the bottom of the "iOS device does not work with the Apple Universal Dock" problem. I noticed that the iPhone 4 and iPad came with slightly different USB-Dock adapter cables. I wondered if that might be the issue. My Apple Universal Dock was connected to my Mac via the original dock adapter cables which are slightly larger. I connected the newer cables between the Mac and the Apple Universal Dock and .... voila! Both the iPod Touch with iOS 4 and the iPhone can now connect via the Apple Universal Dock. Apple changed something in the way the adapter cables function.
Of course I still have the problem with the car head unit dock adapter ... Sigh. I'll have to call Best Buy ( uughh! ) and find out if they'll do the update for me. The were the vendor authorized installer.

Email not working, with 3gs, 4, and 4s

Please help me out, I've searched this issue numerous times in the past couple months. When I had my 3gs, my email started to not load on my phone a couple months ago. I got the "imap.xxx server is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in mail settings" whenever I would go to check my mail manually because there was nothing being pushed. I would get 2 errors, 1 for each account. 1 is a gmail, 1 is an other. It's an intermittent problem that I used to be able to solve by going into settings, turning "off" that mail account, go to the inbox, then back to settings to turn it back "on". This would work every time. Then after a couple weeks, that stopped working every time. I also tried just turning it off and back on and doing soft resets. That worked most of the time as well. After a while, all of those options stopped working 90% of the time. Then I switched to the 4s a couple weeks ago and the problem is worse. It goes days without working and I can't figure out a way to get it to work. I've searched and have seen the workarounds for gmail, but it's doing it for BOTH accounts, so the problem isn't with gmail. I deleted the accounts and added them back in as well. That worked initially, but the same problem came back up within 5 minutes, or about 3-4 manual fetches.
What I HAVE noticed is that most of the time while I'm at work, it will fetch fine if I turn off wifi...but it doesn't work every time. It's not just work wifi (we have 2, tried both), it's the wifi at home as well. Even tried an open wifi wherever I was yesterday and nothing. This seems to be my ONLY lead at this point. I've had the same settings for years, never changed them, and this problem just started about a month or two ago.
My co-worker with an iphone 4 also says she has been having the same problem...we're both AT&T.
It's very intermittent. Sometimes it will be days without being able to load, sometimes it will be minutes. I finally decided to ask for myself because it's been days of no email and as I'm finishing typing this, I get a push email notification...I swear Apple and AT&T are messing with me I've had this issue on ios4.x, 5, and now still 5.0.1.

Interesting thing happend when I got home . . .
Found that my home network was up and running, but the power cord to the cable modem fell out. So, no internet connection. Once I reset the nework, I was able to get all my e-mail accounts set up and working again on the iphone.
When I got to work this morning, I had the same problem as yesterday. Turned off wifi on the iphone and now everything works.
Checked the office wifi and it is working fine. Although the signal is weak in my area of the office.
Seems like IOS is not smart enough to know when wifi is available, but the external connection to the internet does not work.

Imessage not working with Apple ID after Mountain Lion (neither on iPhone anymore)

Hi,
Ive been searching on the net for 2 days in a row hours and hours and decided to place the question here.
Since updating to Mountain Lion iMessage doesn't recognize my Apple ID anymore, it was working good on the beta.
When i try to login it says Apple ID and/or Password incorrect. It works fine on the store and iCloud.
I've tried changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8, did the keychain tricks with deleting the acounts and resetting, tried booting in Safe mode, tried killing the agent in activity monitor and tried deleting the all the iMessage/Agent/iChat files in the preferences directory. I also re installed the Mountain lion update, no go.
I tried everything on every topic i could find.
Also iMessage isnt working on my iPhone either anymore, it does send to my phone number but not to my Apple ID email anymore, when i try to login with apple id it says it cannot connect as well.
Since it isnt working on my iphone and my macbook, i reckon it has something to do with my Apple ID, but i find it weird that it just happened after the update. Ive been using this ID for 3.5 years withouth problems, it's also verifeid.
Anyone help?
Thanks in advance
Etienne.

Mail Message URLs like message: ... not working with Apple Mail any more

Links to certain messages are not working for me any more. For example if I drag a Mail to TextEdit Mac OS X creates a correct Link with the scheme: message:<... etc. Those links should open the linked message in Apple Mail. This seems broken for me.
Is there a way to reenable this functionality, via Terminal or so?
I have to admit that I used Sparrow for a short time. It looks like this stole the message-linking. Now I completely removed Sparrow, but it is still not working again with Apple Mail. Any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Markus

nope, same result with the flags, and now my eyes are burning from having used outlook mode instead of classic mode.

GMail is not working with Apple Mail App: Login correct, says "no e-mails"?

HI everyone,
I just switched from my iPhone 5 to a new iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 8.1.2. After I put the latest backup to the new device everything was set up fine. Unfortunately Google Mail doesn't work with the Apple Mail App any more.
I have two factor identification switched on and use the 16 digit long password which I set up with my Google account. The configuration details work (login, password, server details), the account is accepted, no notifications tell me that anything is wrong. The thing is, that the Apple Mail App doesn't show any mails. Also it's impossible to send any emails. The strange thing is, that the GMail App works fine.
I really tried everything: deleted the account setup, changed mail server from m.google.com to smtp.google.com, set up a new app specific password through two factor identification... no emails appear!
With my iPhone 5 I was a lucky user of push email, thanks to Microsoft ActiveSync. So I keep trying to configure the GMail account as an Exchange account (I know that Google switched off ActiveSync some time ago, until now everything worked fine with my iPhone 5, even push mail worked!).
Does anyone of you know how to solve the problem? I don't like the GMail App and really prefer using the iOS Mail App..
Thanks in advance!

ISight not working with Apple apps but only with Skype and flash....

Hi guys, don't know why but suddenly my isight stopped working with every apple application, like ichat, imovie and photoboot, but it still works with skype and safari (flash).
The camera simply doesn't work, the green led stays off.... I tried resetting PRAM, SMC, deleted .plist files, tried new account and everything...
Maybe the problem is facetime, I uninstalled it by simply dragging it to the trashcan, so I followed a thread here and manually deleted its last files but no luck....
Please guys help me, I really hope I don't have to FORMAT my mac... sounds so windows to me XD...

...Well the camera is seen in system profiler and it works perfectly with skype, I'll try a couple of things then... well reset is inevitable....
Thanks for the "helpful" star, V4N0!
(1) Your initial post shows you using Mac OS X (10.6.6),
but your latest post shows Mac OS X (10.6.5).
Have you "downdated" to 10.6.5?
(2) iSight works with iMovie, Photo Booth, QuickTime, and other apps like Address Book,
etc. You need not try every possible app, but please tell us which you have tested,
and which, if any, work with your iSight.
(3) Have you tested iSight operation in more than one user account?
Are the symptoms EXACTLY the same in any user account you test?
(4) If your only problem is with ALL apps in ALL user accounts, try applying the
Combo Update using the method suggested in this recent post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12859723&#12859723
If you want the latest Mac OS instead of 10.6.5, download the 10.6.6 Combo Update:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
instead of the 10.6.5 Combo (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1324) link in the post.

F7 & F8 shortcut keys not working with Apple's new keyboard

Using a Mac with Macs newish low profile keyboard.
Nothing happens when I use these keys.
The F5 & F6 keys work just fine.
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Or is the new Apple keyboard not compatible with these shortcuts?
What to do?
plmk,
thanks.

You can go to the System Preferences --> Keyboard and Mouse and check "Use F1, F2 etc keys..." and F7 and F8 will work.
But I don't know where the function key is on those new keyboards.

Auto-capitalization not working with apple wireless keyboard?

My ipad settings have auto-cap on. When using the on-screen keyboard the auto-cap works. When I switch to the wireless apple keyboard auto capitalization fails to work.
Any suggestions?
Does anyone have the wireless apple keyboard working with auto cap on iPad?

Did you ever find a solution to your problem? I have the same issue but mine also includes the period shortcut.
If I am hooked up to my keyboard the auto stuff doesn't work even if I manually tap the screen to type.
The fact that this does not work is the issue - not laziness in relying on shortcuts. This needs to be fixed.
