How can I get my iPhone 4s and my computer to sync an msn email account?

I had a Blackberry before my IPhone. On the BB, when I read an email received using my Windows Live account (@msn.com), which I also use as my default email on my Mac, I was asked if I wanted to delete the message from my phone only, my computer only, or from both. The msn is a pop account. Now that I have my IPhone, I can not get my phone email and my computer email to sync the same way. I understand, from an hour on the phone with Apple support, that an imap account will work that way--ex., my yahoo acount. When I delete a message from my IPhone it also deletes from my yahoo account. However, I don't often check that account because we use the msn account for the majority of emails and the msn is set up in the computer's mail account. I was told that because it is a pop account there is possibly no way to make them sync that way. I wonder if anyone else has run across this issue and if there is any solution at all? Is it possible to set up an msn.com account using imap on my computer?

Perhaps you should try using "shared photo stream", if the other phone can view the stream?

So i just got an iphone 4 and im trying to sync a business email account. The account is unique in that the email service goes through a host....

So basically i actually have the account synced at times- however it keeps telling me that the outgoing and incoming server are incorrect and that it cannot connect. Its a business account so im guessing that the server that im using online through a host is what is not allowing it to sync accuratly. However, im planning on setting up the account with Microsoft Outlook; would this help the account connect and for the outgoing and incoming mail servers to connect? Also if anyone can answer why they think the server isnt connecting now when its trying to connect the online server for outgoing and incoming mail...
im sry if this question makes little to no sense- im just annoyed because i bought the iphone specifically because it was the cheapest option for getting e-mails on the go.

Why don't you just contact the email provider and ask them to verify you have the correct settings?
Since you haven't provided any clue as to who the provider is, nobody here can offer any suggestions.

Unfortunately there is no way for you to get it back. Just report it as lost/stolen to the police just in the rare case they catch someone with it. If you had "find my iphone" setup through mobile me, there would of been a chance. Sorry.

How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait?

How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait? Tilting the phone doesn't work.

Try following - 1 by 1:-
* make sure portrait lock is not on & try turning on/off several times
* turn off mobile and turned it back on
* hard reset by pressing lock and home at same time
If problem persist, you need to try following but be careful since the following impact your iphone.
* resetting all setting: this will reset all settings of your iphone back to factory setting
* resetting all setting by erasing all data: this will reset all setting and erase all data so do back-up and proper syncing and read relevant details
* restoring from itunes: this will also erase all data and take mobile back to day 1
last 3 options are last resort and only be done if you are sure you can restore your data.
Please don't hold me responsible for any data loss while doing last 3 options
Cheers!

You will need to upgrade to Snow Leopard first - if your Mac can run it:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:

If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

Make sure iTunes on the computer is logged into the account on the phone.
Plug the iPhone in.
In the popup window warning about wiping your phone, hit cancel.
In the left pane of iTunes, the phone icon should be there.
Right click on it, select transfer purchases.
Note: this will only transfer music bought from iTunes. Not mp3's from amazon or ripped from CD's.

If you don't have your iPhone anymore, you can't access the data on it remotely.
However, if you are syncing to iCloud, you can set up iCloud syncing on your computer and at least get your contact info.
iCloud: Set up iCloud on your devices
You might also think about putting your device in lost mode or erasing it:
What steps should I take if I misplace my device?
If you ever misplace your device—whether it’s just lost or you think it may have been stolen—you should put it into Lost Mode immediately using Find My iPhone.
Lost Mode locks your screen with a four-digit passcode and lets you display a custom message with your phone number to help you get it back. You can also remotely erase your device if needed, and your custom message will continue to display even after the device is erased.
While Activation Lock works in the background to make it more difficult for someone to use or sell your missing device, Lost Mode clearly indicates to anyone who finds your device that it still belongs to you and can’t be reactivated without your password.
To put a device into Lost Mode, sign in to icloud.com/find from a Mac or PC or use the Find My iPhone iOS app.
For more information, read what to do if your device is lost or stolen.

How can I get my iPhone to stop promting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I've checked settings for iTunes

How can I get my iPhone 6 to stop prompting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I have verified in settings that my acct is listed in itunes & App Store, as well as icloud. i can download new apps fine. Have shut down phone and re-powered, have tried plugging into my iMac while signed into my iTunes acct. Can't figure out what to do next?

Is the comp a synced device to your apple ID and approved as an active device for this synchronization?
Just cloud the sync once, activate the comp to your apple I'd in iTunes, ensure all software is up to date, turn on home sharing between the devices and you can reinstall the apps from the apple id purchase history via download.
You basically cleaned out the canonical data apple uses to validate all that, which was backup data. Like iOS devices have the purchased option on the App Store now, syncing the devices via the home sharing and properly activating them will give your comp the purchased cloud and free up 10gs of space on the precious solid states smaller drives.
Hope that helps...
If you need to know the menu to find this info, let me know. But the info is easily accessible in the help menu.

You will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your computer (that will copy PDFs and epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and you can then sync them to your iPhone. Or you might be able to open each PDF in iBooks on your iPad and use the share icon to email them to yourself and then use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPhone to copy them to its iBooks app (if the PDF is protected then you may not get the email option via the share icon).
The Settings > iBooks > Sync Collections setting doesn't copy items between devices, it just means that it a bookor PDF is on both devices and you move it into a collection on one device then it will be moved into the same collection on the other device

How can I get my iphone to stop losing the signal?

How can I get my iphone to stop losing the signal?

Thanks for the tip. If only I could find somewhere where I did not lose the signal.
I am based in the United Kingdom. The carrier is Orange.
I lose the signal inside buildings and outside of buildings. It happens at work and at home. It happens in Centarl London in the open air and inside. It happens in small towns.. It happens in the countryside. It happens in motor cars. It happens in airports. It happens when the battery is fully charged, when it is half charged and when it's low on charge. It happens using the phone, when reading messages and when using the internet.
Hope this helps.
