How do I check my iCloud mail using Safari on an iPhone or iPad?

I'm a satisfied user of iCloud email. Everything is setup and working great on my iPhone. Recently my iPhone died and I needed to check email using my girlfriend's phone. There was no other computer handy (just an iPhone). I assumed I could launch Safari and navigate to something like iCloud.com or m.icloud.com. Unfortunately launching iCloud.com in Safari on iPhone or iPad will just give you instructions to set it up. What if I don't want to set it up in the native app (for privacy reasons) and just quickly check my email in the browser? Shouldn't there be a way to do this? I find it a bit ironic that there is no way to check your iCloud email using a web browser on any of Apple's "post PC" devices.

My belief would be that you log into your iCloud account on the laptop by going to www.icloud.com and sign in with your iCloud ID. Then go to the Mail link.

  • How can I log into my ICloud Mail in Safari on my daughter's iPad?

    I can't seem to be able to use Safari to check my iCloud email on my daughter's iPad.  When I type in www.icloud.com, I don't get an option to log in, I only get a message of how to set up iCloud on the iPad. Why can't I just get to the login screen?

    iCloud.com cannot be accessed in a mobile browser. You have to identify the browser as a desktop version. You can do this in Safari by tapping in the url field and then pull down from the top of the favorites window to access Request Desktop Site.
    Tap that to select the desktop version and then try again. It can be a little tricky to do this in Safari because of the way that you have to select the option for a desktop version, but it can be done. It is much easier in a browser like iCab Mobile, Mercury or Atomic.

  • How can I check my icloud emails using windows xp?

    My MacBook Pro crashed and I am currently using an old laptop on windows xp. When I go to enter online in Icloud.com my emails it does not allow me to see my emails unless I install icloud on my laptop. The problem is that when I follw the directions and the relevant link it sais that icloud is compatible only with windows 7 or 8. Does that practically means that I will not check my emails until my mac is back in life?

    Thank you for the answer
    I am trying to access my emails using my browser but when I enter my ID and password a message appears saying that I need to set up icloud first in my current device before I can make use (enter) icloud.com
    Then I pressed more info to find out how I can do that in a windows pc and I found out the following:
    ''To enable iCloud on your Windows PC (Windows 7 or 8 required), first step set up your iCloud account on your other devices or Mac, then install iCloud for Windows''
    Any suggestion?

  • ICloud mail not auto synching on iPhone or iPad

    If I read and delete mail on my Mac in iCloud and look at my iPhone 4 or iPad2 (iOS 5), they will both show on lock screen, notifications banner and the mail icon badge all of the emails I already read and deleted.  I have to open the mail app and then within a matter of seconds they are either marked read or deleted, but I shouldn't have to open the app on all devices.  This should happen in the background.
    Anyone else have this problem and maybe find a solution?

    Hi,
    I had previously tried that, but only deleting the SQLlit databases.
    This time I tried to delete the whole iTunes_Control folder as suggested, hard reset.
    It resynched with iCloud and now I had neither artists names or album names.
    As an added bonus iTunes no longer recognised the device and wanted to set it up as a new phone - good job I had backed up the folder so I could re-insert the iTunes information to sort that little issue out.
    I've cancelled my auto renew on Match subscription. If I don't fix it by early December then I'll save my money and forget the idea of using it until next year.

  • How do I recreate my iCloud mail account on my iPad Air.

    Took my iPad Air to Genius Bar at Apple store bekse of frequent system crashes/freezes.  Tech removed all apps and system, then reloaded iOS.  Result was like having a new device with no Settings/ apps.  Tried to recreate settings, including mail accounts. All OK until tried to recreate iCloud mail account.  Won't allow me to recreate bkse keep getting notices email user name is already in use (it is, it is mine!), and SMTP ICloud server is not responding/ accepting email name.  How do I recreate my iCloud mail account so that it works on my IPad?  Suggestions?

    Let's try deleting the iCloud account from your iPad, then adding it back.
    If you have any photo stream photos on your iPad, save them to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream alburm, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  The force close the Mail app by double-tapping the home button, locating Mail in the list at the bottom, tap and hold Mail until it wiggles, tap to close it, then tap the home button agian.
    Then to delete the iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted.  This only deletes the account and your iPad data from your iPad, not from iCloud.  Then go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in and turn on your sync settings, confirming that Mail is set to On.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your iPad after a brief delay as it redownloads.  Open Mail and see if your iCloud account is there now.

  • How do i retrieve my icloud mail ID password. It is not matching my current Apple ID password

    How do i retrieve my icloud mail ID password. It is not matching my current Apple ID password

    See the quote below from http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    An Apple ID is the login you use for just about everything you do with Apple, including using iCloud to store your content, downloading apps from the App Store, and buying songs, movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store.
    If you are using a second Apple ID for iCloud you would recover the password in the same way: If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

  • How do I get my icloud mail on my desktop?

    how do I get my icloud mail on my desktop?

    It's a bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    Your signature says you are using 10.3.9 - is this correct? (If it isn't please amend it to prevent confusion).
    Lion 10.7.2 is required for full iCloud functions. If you migrated using the 'email only' method you may be able to get your email on older systems with the old MobileMe settings. Failing that, you can set Mail up manually:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Tiger
    If you really are using Leopard try the Tiger instructions, but I don't know if they will work.

  • I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

    You can't change the name of your @me.com or @icloud.com address, but you can set up an alias with a different name that will still deliver email to your iCloud inbox.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

  • How to use standard yahoo mail in Safari on my iPhone?

    I try to get my mail through safari on my iphone using regular web-based yahoo mail. After I sign in, there is a toolbar at the bottom that has buttons like delete, compose mail etc. It was not there in the first place but I don't know what I pressed and it showed up. Is there any way to hide that toolbar?
    Message was edited by: sturtle

    Why would you want to use web based Yahoo mail when the iPhone supports Yahoo mail in the native mail client, even if it's not a premium account?
    Just set up your yahoo account in Mail.
