Email problems with icloud on iphone

my icloud email does not work on the iphone when sending

I have the same problem and found a work around that lets you send email thru iCloud via another mail service (ie. Gmail, Yahoo, etc.).
If you go into Settngs select: iCloud Settings > Account. Now scroll down to the bottom under the heading Advanced. Select: Mail > SMTP (iCloud SMTP Server) which should give you a list of Other SMTP servers where you can turn them on. Once you have turned these other servers on your iCloud mail will be sent out via this server.
The problem I'm working on is why the iCloud SMTP Server is not working from my phone but the computer. Haven't had anyone solve that yet.

  • Problem with icloud on iphone

    hello everyone:
    i updated my iphone5 in this days, changed the itunes account email and password and when i try to update the info in the icloud setting area the terms and conditions says unable to connect to server, tried removing the itunes account and it let me accept them but it doesnt let me update the email of the account neither delete the account.

    You have to delete the icloud account from the phone :settings> icloud> delete account
    Once you hit delete it will ask are you sure, hit delete. It will ask if you want to keep data, tap keep on iphone. Then just sign back into icloud with correct information.

  • Problem with icloud & bookmarks (Iphone 4, IOS 5.0.1)

    If I switch on settings>icloud>bookmarks then my bookmarks are duplicated and moved/disordered.  What's wrong? (Iphone 4, IOS 5.0.1)

      [First of all, thank you for reply.  And I'm sorry for my broken english; I'm not an english speaker]
      That don't change anything.
      If I have the tree  Bookmarks>FolderA>FolderB>FolderC>FolderD  then  Bookmarks>FolderD appears too (and not with all the bookmarks that must contain).  It seems that the bookmarks in iCloud are stored incorrectly from the past (perhaps the tree was too deep) and all I can do is copy them to the iphone.  How can I replace the incorrect bookmarks stored in iCloud (not copying from iCloud to the phone)?
      And the bookmarks in  Bookmarks>FolderA>FolderB>FolderC>FolderD  appear disordered (and some of them, into another forlders!).  Why the bookmarks are disordered when I switch bookmarks on?
      Thank you very much

  • Sync problems with iCloud + Exchange

    Since 3-4 weeks the email/calendar synchronization with my iPhone's (3GS and 4S) and iPad 2 is nor working properly any more,
    I have in parallel installed an iCloud account for private and an Exchange account for business use.
    Only if I turn the iPhones/iPad off and on it syncs for one time. After that the email app always shows the turning wheel and "Receiving emails" and does nothing more at all.
    As soon as I delete my iCloud account on the iPhone's/iPad the Exchange account works perfect again without any problems. As soon as I reinstall iCloud all email/calendar sync for Exchange and iCloud is dead again.
    So there must be a problem with the iCloud sync which also affects the Exchange sync.
    As long as I used my Exchange account together with Gmail I had no problems at all.
    Hopefully Apple fixes this problem with iCloud within the next days otherwise I have to go to Google back again.
    Any people out there with the same problem?

    I have boiled the problem down to just the icloud contacts.  If I leave them off everything is fine when I turn them on my exchange accounts will not update.

  • Outlook not syncing with icloud on iphone

    outlook not syncing with icloud on iphone?

    Also make sure you are using the same iCloud account on your PC and your iPhone.  Go to Settings/iCloud on your iPhone and check the account email address.  Then check the iCloud account on your PC.  If you have a Windows PC, click on the iCloud icon in your system tray to see what icloud email account you are logged into.
    I changed the email on my iPhone and. iPad, but forgot to change the email on my PC and my calendars wouldn't sync.  It finally dawned on me that I forgot to change the account on my PC.

  • On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server".  I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC.  It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?

    Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
    Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

  • TS3999 My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone?

    My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone? despite doing everything as per the support page. I keep on clicking the Add in but it wont "take"?
    It use to,  but no matter what I try nothing works. Using Windows 7. HELP!

    This step is not clear:
    "Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Outlook requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers."
    The link takes me to an Apple page but which has nothing to do with ports.  And there is nothing to explain what it is I am looking for, how to look for it, and how to change it if needed.
    Also, this step:
    "Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices."
    iCloud automatically set up a "[email protected]...." account for me so I see that one plus my original email used to open my Apple account.  And the apple products show my settings under both identities.
    Make sure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook
    This add-in is disabled because it doesn't allow Outlook to function properly.
    Thanks!

  • Problems with iCloud Calendar OS 10.8

    Problems with iCloud Calendar OS 10.8
    I would like to warn users of a couple of problems I have encountered recently with Calendar. I have been in touch with Apple phone support about this and after 3-4 hours on the phone they have arranged to call back tomorrow. A colleague informed me yesterday he has experienced exactly the same problem as described in point 1. below. Looks like a software glitch – I hope it can be fixed quickly.
    1. Deletion of single entry in a repeated event results in loss of display of all related events in iCloud Calendar but not on devices
    Deletion of a single entry from a repeating event (after correctly selecting to delete only the single event and not to delete all future events) results in failure to display all of the related events in iCloud but with retention of the related events on devices such as iPhone and iCal on a computer.
    There have been occasions, very briefly, that the events so affected display correctly on iCloud, only to disappear from the screen within about a second of opening the page in Calendar.
    Deletion of the relevant account in iCal (on the computer) and its subsequent reinstallation results in correct display of the calendar in iCal, but persisting failure to display the calendar entries correctly in iCloud. This appears to ONLY effect repeated entries in which one of the repeated entries has been subsequently deleted after the creation of the repeating event. Single entries, or repeated entries that have not been modified, do not appear to be affected.
    This problem is consistently occurring regardless of whether the repeated entry is set to end “never”, “after number of times” or “on date”.
    My conclusion is, there is a problem with the display of the repeated events in iCloud (?an HTML coding issue) but that the events are being correctly saved in the calendar database.
    2. Random dropout in “repeat” function for new events and/or “repeat” function in edit of existing event
    In the course of investigating problem 1, I have discovered that the pop-up menu in iCloud Calendar that allows new events to be created or old events to be edited apparently randomly has the repeat event function missing in the pop up menu – making it impossible to create a repeating event from a new entry or to edit an existing event for the repeat function. All other functions appear to be preserved in the affected pop-up.
    This problem is also apparent in iCal – i.e., it is not restricted to the web version of Calendar. I have not had the time or the energy to investigate this in detail. At first glance, it is a random error.
    Solution: Apple needs to debug this software

    Thank you paulfromstpeters !
    I have the same problem!
    I don't remember what I exactly did, but after some changes on a repeted event (I think I deleted some recurrens), it doesn't appear anymore on the iCloud and on the iPod (but correctly on the MacBook).

  • Has anyone had problems with iCloud being blocked by corporate web security?

    Has anyone else encountered problems with iCloud being blocked by the web-security on company computers?   I never had any problems with me.com, but now it appears I will be unable to check my mail via any computer at work. 
    Since iCloud is a portal for high-volume image and file sharing, I can understand why the site would be blocked, but it's very frustrating that this possibility would not have been anticipated, and an alternate web-mail site been set up.  Otherwise many me.com subscribers may be left unable to use the iCloud web-mail portal via computers at work or at internet cafes that may block access to potentially risky websites.
    Has anyone figured out a back door to this problem? 

    I dont beleive its an iOS 5 Issue - i think its hardware...
    Simply because i have been running iOS 5 beta's since june and there were no issues with my iPhone 4.
    When i installed the GM on my iphone 4 (which is the same build as the public release) there were no issues with charging in my vehicle.
    Now, charging my iPhone 4S in my car is practically impossible.
    when i plug mine in, it will display the "Plugged" symbol on the battery display but not actually charge. the battery will still decrease.
    then it will randomly "disconnect" and not register that it is plugged in. then appear to be plugged in, then not, then plugged in, then not.
    This will repeat over and over again without actually charging and the charger being in the socket throughout.
    however yesterday i left it plugged in and my battery was 9% and after the strange plugged-in behaviour i noticed it was charging normally after about 20 mins in the car.
    But when i did the same journey time today, the battery wouldnt register at all.... charging has only been successful ONCE since 14th October on the iPhone 4s
    No idea whats up with it...
    anybody else?

    I need to shut off Find My iPhone to restore it.  The email associated with find my iphone is no longer in use and I cancelled that apple is.  How do I change the Apple ID to my new one?  My new one is already working everywhere else on my phone and iTune

    Are you trying to change the Apple ID associated with your iCloud account?  If so, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • Problem with network on Iphone 4

    Please tell me if someone has a problem with network on Iphone 4?

    Of course other people have had problems. However, just knowing that other people have had some vague, undefined "network problems" most likely isn't going to be very useful. You'll get more and better help if you can give some details about your specific problem. Include who your carrier is, what country you're in. Then describe the exact nature of the problem. Then, maybe someone will be able to give good suggestions.
    And, by the way, the free bumper program ended some time ago. It also was only a "solution" for one of many possible problems.
    Best of luck.

    Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.
