How do I configure my iphone so my mail works?

My hotmail account via my iphone worked well for many months but stopped working well today. We went to an AT@T store and the representative seemed to fix the mail system but when we came home here, it wouldn't work. It wouldn't send or receive messages.
What settings on a router are necessary for the iphone to work with hotmail?
I did add a portforward setting to my firewall so another program would work. That is fine. My desk top computer and my wireless laptop all work fine but now the iphone wont send or receive mail. All other internet related functions seem to work fine e.g. I can get onto Facebook.
What do I do to resolve this problem?

It does so by default... what's the issue?

    I'm not sure what you mean... Do you want your phone to speak your texts so that you can hear them instead of reading them?

    Sorry there is no settings to configure that, it is set up by your cell phone provider, you can contact them and see if they can or can't change it for you.

    Hi gsk1122,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I believe you are asking about iCloud, which is the best way to synchronize your email, calendar, contacts and notes between your computer and your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.
    The link below will explain what iCloud is and how to set it up on your devices.
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.

    If this is not what you are asking about, please reply with more specifics.

  • How can we configure in MSS to view Employee work schedule?

    Hi,
    How can we configure in MSS to view Employee work schedule?
    Regards,
    Poornima

    Hi,
    Can you please tell me what is your exact requirement?....
    I think in the standard MSS package there is an iview for viewing the workschedule related information like Hours/day, Hrs/week, hrs/month and hrs/year for a position.
    However, if you want to view the workschedule for employee, it can easily be configured through the OADP.
    You can create a custom Function module for fetching the workschedule for each employee and after creating a custom column, add it to any data view.
    Thanks,
    Pinki

  • How do I configure where my drafts in mail are saved?

    We use google app and IMAP for email.  google recomends setting your mail client to save drafts in the IMAP draft folder not the defauld folder.  How do I configure this?

    Check that you configured the SMTP server for each address correctly, it should match the user ID and password of the Imap server in use, and it should be marked as the server to use for the account.

  • How can i configure my iphone to only pass traffic from certain apps over vpn

    I have got a telephony app that connects to a phone system through vpn. when I turn on "send all traffic through vpn" internet and other apps are really slow. is their a way to configure the phone to send only traffic from the app through VPN.

    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Look on other screens. The 4.1 update ands Game Center to the home screen. If that screen was full it create a blank screen and moves one app from the home screen to the new screen to make room for Game Center. All the other screens are pushed back one place.
    How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
    If they are really gone, you can download them again. You will not be charged again if you use the same iTunes account.

  • How to best configure iMac + iPhones + Macbook Air?

    Somewhat new to the mac world, particularly the networking/sharing aspects of iTunes.
    My wife and I have an iMac with separate accounts but that share the same iTunes library. We both have iPhones and those phones are sync'd to the iMac - all is working fine.
    But now we have a Macbook Air that we take on the road with us (also separate accounts). When home, that Macbook Air is networked in to our home network with full access to our iMac, etc. While on the road we would like to use the Macbook Air and iTunes to manage our library, purchase new tunes, videos etc while on the road. When we open iTunes on the laptop it asks for a library or to create a new one and we've been hesitant to choose since we don't want to have two separate libraries that could get out of sync, etc.
    So how can we maintain a single library across these devices that doesn't get out of whack while we're on the road ? How should I be setting up iTunes on the Macbook Air to do this ?
    thanks

    Depends what data you want to sync, and to what extent.
    iSync is for syncing Contacts & Calendars to mobile phones and PDAs - it has nothing to do with Mac-to-Mac syncing.
    .Mac Sync will sync bookmarks, contacts, and calendars between Macs.
    Chronosync will sync files and folders between Macs.

  • I thought that I was updating my phone...but it went into Recovery mode with the USB cord pointing to itunes and music notes in a circle. How can I get my Iphone 4 back to working without losing my data? I tried turning the phone off and it is uplugged.

    My iphone 4 is stuck on the lock screen with the USB cord pointing to itunes and music notes. I thought I was updating the phone for itunes but it is now teetering on the Recovery Mode. I do not want to lose my data, etc. Can someone explain how I can get my phone back? Apple support is not helpful.

    Your phone is in recovery mode.  All data on it are already lost.  You must connect your phone to your computer and restore through iTunes.

  • How do I stop my iphone received e-mails from cutting short in Outlook?

    I have set up my my Iphone Mail Account using gmail/googlemail.
    I often look at my e-mails for the first time using my Iphone but save them in Outlook 2003.
    I have found, however, that Outlook is now not downloading the WHOLE of the e-mail, only the part that my Iphone automatically downloaded at first instance. I also now get within my "Outlook version" the "Begin forwarded message" which comes from Iphone.
    How do I ensure that Outlook downloads the whole of my message and not just part of it?

    You can first export your contacts in your Android phone to your desktop or to a storage device. After this, please open your Gmail account followed by settings and then click on import button there. Then choose the saved contact file that you saved in the previous step.
    The next step is to iPhone. In this device, tap on Settings option and then click Add account and then click on Microsoft Exchange in there. Just feed in the required information in the respective fields such as your email ID, password, server name. Now just go through the rest of the process which is very easy to transfer contacts from Android device to iPhone.
    Best of Luck!!

  • How can I get an iPhone 4 to reliably work with Airport?

    I've been searching through many forums, and most discussions are several years old, and the fixes they describe don't work.  I have an Airport Extreme network, a new one built this year (2012) with 2 airport expresses and 2 macs and a PC, and iPad in the house, an iPad that comes by occasionally, and they all work flawlessly.  But there are 2 iPhones in the house, a 3Gs and a 4 that will not work.  Occasionally they will log into the network, but that never lasts.  Normally both phones say that they cannot join the airport network, if I  use the wrong passwork, they say so.  The network is using PPoe in order to use a Verizon DSL, and uses a wpa2 password if that has anything to do with it.  Has anyone figured this out?  Or is this something of Apple's that intentionally does not work in order to use up people's telephone bandwidth as fast as possible?

  • How do I configure the custom external editor to work with Premiere Elements 13

    Situation
    I own Lightroom 5.6 and I'm experienced. I've just bought Premiere Elements 13 and I'm a video-editing virgin (be gentle with me). I've spent a day experimenting, reading, watching videos, I've tried asking my question in Premiere Elements forum, and I'm still stuck (i.e. I've tried reasonably hard to solve my own problem).
    Problem
    I've tried to set up the custom external editor in Lightroom 5 to send photos to Premiere Elements, so that I can incorporate images into movies. Having set it up, when I use it by selecting Photo/Edit In/Premiere Elements 13/, there is an exciting lull as a copy of the image is created and appears in LR, then Premiere Elements launches, then what??? There is no clue as to what has happened to the image regarding its import into Premiere Elements 13. It doesn't appear on the screen, it doesn't appear in the Organizer, it's no-where to be seen, other than in LR!
    Resolution sought
    Can anyone tell me:
    1. Is it possible to use Premiere Elements as an external editor in LR5 ?
    2. What are the precise settings for each field (I've played with the various field options but obviously haven't yet found the right combination)?
    3. If I configure it correctly, what does good look like: what should I expect to see happen in Premiere Elements when I squirt photos over from LR5 via the 'Edit In' option in LR5?
    I don't know if this is relevant: MacBook Pro 16GB 2.8Ghz i7, 750GB SSD (i.e. plenty of space, plenty of horsepower), OS X 10.9.5
    I'm hoping the answer isn't 'sorry, it can't be done' because if it is possible, it would be a real contribution to my video editing workflow.
    Thanks
    Phil

    You don't have to buy an Apple keyboard, but you probably need at least to buy a keyboard that connects via proper USB instead of through some Windoze-world adapter, which probably requires a driver that's not available for the Mac OS.
    The Apple Bluetooth KB and Magic Trackpad make a fabulous combination for use with any MacBook Pro that spends a lot of time in clamshell mode, because the trackpad works exactly like the built-in trackpad. So there's no transition adjustment to make when you pack up your MBP and go portable with it.
