Email set up doesn't work

Can anyone please help me?!
I had my email account set up on my iPhone and IPad (iPad only a few days old) was working fine on both til last night.
I read a few forums that suggested deleting from both devices, reset devices then load back on one device as sometime email accounts can only be accessed from one device at a time.
Done all that, now I can't get my emails to set up at all!
Anyone perhaps know how to rectify this?
Many thanks in advance!
Louise

Sure.
I set up my account as normal in settings.
Everything looks ok.
I then go into my mail account and there is literally nothing there and it's a work account so I have got loads of emails in there....
I had it all set up on both devices but it just seemed to stop receiving emails and when I refreshed it, it said the date and time was last night sometime on my iPad, but was still receiving them on my iPhone ok??
Does that make sense?
Thanks

When I click on the rescue email stuff it doesn't work. Why?

I have the same problem. Basically when I try to manage my Apple ID I'm asked to answer my security questions. Only problem is I don't know the answers. I don't want to lock my account. I click "Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to......". I never recieve anything from apple though. I know the email is valid it's my work email I literally use it everyday. I've heard of people having to answer their security questions to purchase apps or music. I'd like to get this resolved before that happens to me.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
If you used the automated wizard, then it's possible that the server didn't respond with the correct settings, and they are now not quite correct. You can try the EAVT to see if you can find the correct settings:
Article ID: KB33444 How to use the Email Account Validation Tool (EAVT)
Or you can ask the email system admin for the correct settings. Once you have them, you can double check if what is configured to your BB is correct...and make the necessary corrections if they are not. If that doesn't work, then I'd advise removing and reintegrating the account, but use the Advanced/Manual configuration method using the settings you have received as valid.
Good luck and let us know!

How do I log out of icloud on my iphone when my password or email recovery address doesn't work?

I switched my email address to a more current gmail one (which works as my apple id) from an old hotmail one. It switched my apple id over, but it didn't switch my icloud email over. Now the hotmail account is gone, the old password doesn't work, and I can't log in to icloud with my current gmail one. I can't delete it becuase the password doesn't work. I can't even wipe my phone out and start with whole new accounts because I can't turn off 'find my iphone'!

What it says is that Photostream photos will be deleted on your phone & any documents stored on the phone will be deleted...that's the way it works. If you want these photos, you need to save them first. For contacts, calendars, etc., you'll be asked if you want to keep on the phone or not.

I changed my main email on my apple ID and now it doesn't work and still uses my old one and with my new and old email my password doesn't work

I changed my main email on my apple ID now when I try sign in with the new email it doesn't work and neither does my old one so I don't know what happened, any help?... I made a new apple ID and on my iPod it tries to use my old one and I can't change it to my new apple ID I've gone on to settings and iTunes and App Store and changed it to my new apple Id yet when I buy apps or try update them it uses my old apple ID I don't know what to do any help??

- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
If you can't log into Settings>iTunes and App stores with your new ID them mean there is a problem. Try restting the password and try to sign in again.
iTunes Store: Retrieving and changing passwords (Apple ID)
Can you sign in with the new ID on your computer?
Last, contact iTunes.

Lightroom 5.2 eMail address book doesn't work

Lightroom 5.2 eMail address book doesn't work

Being sorry really doesn't help. I'm running Windows 64bit and the address book function for eMail doesn't work. I installed 5.3 beta - no help!
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Well, SVHudson, what did you expect to get from your first post? There was no information at all, not even a question. We are not mind readers here.
Why didn't you start with the information you are providing now, which, even though it is still not complete, at least gives a hint of what your problem is?

Email SPAM filter doesn't work

Is the webmail SPAM filter supposed to ... like ... prevent SPAM? I get the same SPAM every day. The SPAM button does nothing,

I have been marking about 30 per day as spam and forwarding all of them to the address that Verizon says is for undetected spam. The spam I get is all from the same outfit, I believe, based on the uniformity of how they package their notes and the fact that all of the links are spoofed. One would think that after 30 a day for several months, somebody in Verizon would wake up to the fact that Verizon users are getting killed with spam. One would think that if they truly cared about our email experience they would have an army of folks jumping on the spam we forward to them, aggressively pursuing it and working to reduce it. The fact is that they show no evidence of putting forth ANY effort at making our experience better.
The fact seems to be that they have little concern for their email users. The more of us that stick with Verizon for our home internet service, paying them their monthly fee, but jump to other, better email providers merely means less work for them. Not a bad model for making maximum profit, but a sucky way to treat customers.
My Verizon Wireless service has been fantastic. But my Verizon phone/internet service sucks. I'm just waiting until another provider is available in my area so I can leave Verizon forever. Lousy support, uncaring employees. I send in notes to them and get zero response. Look at the complaints in these forums that continue to rack up. Almost no response from the company. We're all left to try to deal with our problems ourselves with only minimal support. Probably some intern that spends his/her shift playing Angry Birds.

Can't send email - SEND button doesn't work

I recently upgraded this machine to 10.4 Today, I the SEND button in MAIL doesn't work. I also cannot select SEND from the menu. Nothing happens. Help!

I finally broke down and called Apple (I forgot I still had AppleCare on the machine). Basically, they had me trash my Preferences file and start over. (I had already tried trashing my com.apple.mail... file.) Trashing Prefs didn't fix anything, so I renamed my Library file and OSX created a new one. That fixed the problem, but now I have to dig out and slowly transfer my old Lib files back until I figure out which files are causing the problem. Yikes.
However, I was just reading in the latest MacWorld that after every upgrade you should immediately run Apple's Disk Utility and Repair Permissions. I wonder if that would have solved the problem?

Email submit button doesn't work with Thunderbird

I created a LiveCycle (v8.2.1) form with the email submit button. Works fine if the sender is using Outlook. If their using Thunderbird, it does not. I installed Thunderbird on my system (normally I use Outlook) and set Control Panel/Internet Options/Programs email to use Mozilla Thunderbird as the email program. When I click the Email button on my LiveCycle PDF form, I get a message telling me: Select an Email Client. The "Desktop Email Application" radio button is checked and that should be fine; the explanation for this button indicates that it should be checked "if you currently use an email application such as Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook, Eudora, or Mail.". I leave that checked, since I am using an email application and click OK. After 20-30 seconds, I get a message with the title bar: Microsoft Office Outlook "A program is trying to access e-mail address information stored in Outlook..." Allow|Deny|Help. I click Deny. After a minute or so, an Outlook "New" email window appears with the appropriate information from my LiveCycle PDF form. Right content, wrong email client. Since Thunderbird is my "default" email application, where is LiveCycle coming up with Outlook? What do my customers do who don't use Outlook?
I hope someone has a good solution.
Thanks.

When you click the submit button, do you get a window that has the title "Select Email Client"and has the options of "Desktop Email Application" and "Internet Email"? If not, does anything at all happen?
Note that Mac users must have Acrobat or Reader installed and be viewing the PDF in Acrobat or Reader for it to work. Many (most?) Mac users have the Preview Application as their default PDF viewer, and it does not support many interactive features such as form submissions. Although some third-party PDF viewers for Windows support form submissions, many do not.
For those that do not use PDF viewers that support form submissions, they will have to manually attach the document to an email message.

Email submit button doesn't work after digitally signing document

I have a PDF fillable form that works great except for the digital signature fields. Every employee needs to fill it out, sign it, hit the email submit button to faward it to the boss, who then signs it and saves it. There are two digital signature fields that need to be signed by different people. If the employee fills out all of the fields and then hits the email submit button, everything works as it should. However, if they sign it digitally like we need them to and then press the email submit button, nothing happens. It's like the button is no longer interactive at all. The mouse doesn't even change anymore when hovering over it. How can I fix this?

Mail Services New email with selection doesn't work, leads to Force Quit

I've posted this before, but got no replies so I'm trying again since it's driving me crazy. It was a problem under Mavericks and still exists under Yosemite's Mail.
When I select text and then go to the Services menu and pick "New email with selection," much of the time a totally empty new email message window opens , won't let me type in it at all, nor will it close or send. It just sits there until I Force Quit Mail.
HELP PLEASE!!!

Standard Apple Mail. I'm running Yosemite 10.10.1, and I'm amazed to see that About Mail says it's Mail Version 8.1 (1993), copyright 1995-2014 Apple Inc.
Interesting thought, do you think that it doesn't like to work with itself? Actually, I'm fairly sure I've had the problem inside of other apps but I should document that. I'll keep notes to see where this happens.

Zfs set userquota doesn't work on upgraded datasets?

Greetings all,
I put all the latest patches on a Solaris 10 system with zfs to and upgraded the zpool to version 15 and zfs to version 4 so I could use user-based quotas. When I try to set a userquota on an existing dataset, it takes the command but doesn't set up the quota. If I create a new dataset, then I can assign quotas to it. Does the userquota not work on existing datasets that have been upgraded? Here are the commands that illustrate the problem:
# zfs list
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
data 50.7G 145G 50.7G /data
# zpool upgrade
This system is currently running ZFS pool version 15.
All pools are formatted using this version.
# zfs upgrade
This system is currently running ZFS filesystem version 4.
All filesystems are formatted with the current version.
# zfs set userquota@finleyc=50G data
# zfs get userquota@finleyc data
NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE
data userquota@finleyc - -
# zfs create data/test
# zfs set userquota@finleyc=50G data/test
# zfs get userquota@finleyc data/test
NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE
data/test userquota@finleyc 50G local
# zfs destroy data/test
Any ideas? Thanks!
Tim

Can you repeat the test and, before erasing the dataset, send the output for
# zfs userspace data/testCheers
Andy

Ok, I have made something similar to which your you want to do.
Before to send a e-mail you have to upload the file, and later you can attach it into the e-mail.
To upload the file:
I made it with a jsp file (has a form) where I call to a java servlet how upload the file:
package ServletUpload;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;

I have an AT&T Email Account that doesn't work with Mail for Lion

I've had this email account with AT&T for a few years and it has worked with Mac Mail with no difficulty for a few years. Recently the account has been able to receive messages. Every time I hit Get Mail it asks for a password. I have installed all the latest updates through Software Update. I have a Mac Mini with OS Lion. After struggling for awhile, my inbox eventually comes in. I have reset all the incoming and outgoing POP Server accounts, as well as used the Webmail version through Yahoo.com and it all works fine. What is going on and how can I continue to use this program.

Go to the AT&T support site and verify that you have setup Mail with the correct confuguration, i.e., ports, server names, etc. Otherwise, you haven't provided enough details to be of much assistance.
Rcommend that you get a .me account and start using IMAP email in lieu of POP3. You can then configure your existing AT&T account to forward all email to your .me account.
