How do I set up my Hotmail account to work on my Mac

how so i set up the mail client on my Mac so I don't have to log onto Hotmail to view my mail.
I have tried setting it up but it does not synk with online. so i see all my mail as unread.
How do i fix this?

First be sure that your external USB HDD is formatted in either HFS+ or FAT32 as these will be the only two disk formats that the Extreme can share out to network clients.
Once you verified the format, you just need to connect the HDD to the USB port on the Extreme. Finally you would use the AirPort Utility to enable the HDD for sharing.
For AirPort Utility v6.x: Start the utility > Select your AirPort Extreme > Select Edit > Select the Disks tab. Verify that the utility correctly identifies your HDD. Then select (check) the "Enable file sharing" option, and then, select Update. After the base station updates, you should be able to "see" the shared HDD in Finder on your MacBook Pro.

Hotmail on a Mac is POP3 only, you will only get the basic folders (inbox, sent, trash etc) and it will not sync with other devices.
And now I post this I see other replies, so this is redundant. !!

How do i set up an iCloud account to work with existing hotmail account

So i have iphone 4s and a macbook and i want the email address that i used to have sync via fetching the data manually to work with icloud, I made an icloud account so that i could do this but now that and the other email account are seperate so nothing ever syncs, how can i just add my hotmail account to icloud to make it sync to my iphone automatically?

There is no way to setup iCloud on a PC, it must be setup first on a compatible Mac, iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

How Can i Set up my Hotmail Account on Mail ?

i Want to use my hotmail accont on mail, but i dont know the server ?

The outgoing mail server uses SMTP.. See set up below
a. Change the Incoming mail (POP3) and Outgoing mail (SMTP) settings to:
i. Incoming mail FROM pop3.email.msn.com TO pop3.live.com
ii. Outgoing mail FROM smtp.email.msn.com TO smtp.live.com
b. Uncheck the "Log on using Secure Password Authentication" box
2.
a. Change the port number for Incoming Mail (POP3) from 110 to 995
b. Check both the boxes that indicates "This server requires a secure connection (SSL)"

How do I set up my hotmail account in Mail?

Is there a way of doing this? I can't seem to get past the "Incoming Mail Server" screen when trying to add the new account. It tells me the server isn't responding. What should the server name be? I've tried mail.live.com, pop3.live.com, and a bunch of others I hoped would work, but nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Aww that's lame Thank you!

How do set up your hotmail account on a mac book pro properly? I have it set up so I get mail but on my hotmail account I have lot of separate folders to save messages in(for example :- bank, skyp, work, Facebook, apple, ect...). They don't show up on my mac. I also have an iPhone and iPad, there is no issue here when I set those up. I automatically got my separate folders. Anybody have any idea or encountered the same problem?

How do I set up a hotmail e-mail account on my iphone?

How do I set up a hotmail e-mail account on my iphone?

Microsoft just changed this POP mail item this month - they now allow this with a HOTMAIL PLUS account -
I was finally able to set up my iphone to support my Hotmail Plus email account. I did make a mistake initially which caused it to fail at first so I delete the new account and tried again - here are my steps:
1. Go to Settings
2. Go to Mail
3. Go to Add a new Account
4. Click Other
5. Click the POP button - do not leave it on the default IMAP button (this is where I mady my mistake.
Then fill in these values as the prior poster noted:
NAME: Enter your name here, or some other value.
ADDRESS: Enter your full hotmail email address
DESCRIPTION: Create a description such as "hotmail account"
INCOMING MAIL SERVER
Host name: pop3.live.com
User name: (enter your full hotmail email address)
Password: (enter your password for this account)
OUTGOING MAIL SERVER
Host Name: smtp.live.com
User Name: (enter your full hotmail email address)
Password: (enter the password for this account)
Under the ADVANCED SETTINGS
Make sure incoming and outgoing SSL is 'ON' - Authentication is set to Password
Pleaes note also that my hotmail account has a couple thousand emails in it going back several years so my iphone started inporting the first 200 - then it stopped, so I had to delete many of them, check for mail again and it imported some more, then I deleted more, imported more, and on and on - and it seems to do it by date, so the oldest messages come in first - justs something to keep in mind.
If you don't have a hotmail plus account - it might be worth the $20 a year to get this access if you use your hotmail alot. It beats forwarding messasges to another email to come into your phone or useing some third party like izy that than has your password info.

Had problem with my hotmail account and had to change my password. Ever since then, my default e-mail account set up to hotmail doesn't work...it sends from gmail. How can I correct that?

On your iPhone you need to change your password in 2 places:
- Incoming Mail Server and
- Outgoing Mail Server
To get to the password entry for the Outgoing Mail Server you have to tap on cell smtp.live.com and again on the second view.

I know you figured it out but I've been using " Nokia Messaging email " and it works great, can set up tons of accounts easily... Just an Option
NME is a good alternative. In the beginning it was bugy and I stopped taking it onwards in my future considerations. Nowadays it is grown to a serious service. Def. something to count in your options!

How do you set-up a hotmail email address in mail

how do you set-up a hotmail email address in mail?
I cant seem to add it. any ideas why it cant connect to the server? what server address should i be using?
regards
Brendon

Hi bmuur,
I also had the same problem.
I clicked Microsoft Exchange and kept trying to add my hotmail account that way but it kept asking for a server address for it to work.
If you go into Internet Accounts and instead of clicking Microsoft Exchange scroll down to the bottom of the list and click Add Other Account...
It will ask what sort of account you want to be created and I selected Add Mail Account and clicked create.
Enter your full name, hotmail email address and password.
I then clicked create and it worked for me.
Hopefully this solves your problem.

HT204053 how do I set up a sub account in iCloud?

How do I set up a sub account in icloud? We need three separate email addresses in this house but only have one Apple ID. Since the apple ID is an email address, I'm sort of in a catch 22. I can't set up individual icloud accounts because I don't have other apple ID's. I can't get other apple ID's because you have to use one to get an icloud account... Very confusing. Our main email address transfered seamlessly to icloud and we love it but we want to ditch our Advertisement ridden verizon email and have a separate email for my husbands business contacts and my business contacts. Everyone says we can just sign up for other icloud accounts but... well... the whole catch 22 thing. Someone please help, I feel like I'm chasing my tail here.

Welcome to the Apple community.
You cannot set up subaccounts, as you couldwith the family pack for MobileMe. I'm not sure why you can't create separate Apple IDs and hence iCloud accounts, it isn't good practice to share and iCloud account between different people. All you need to do, is each create your own iCloud account, choosing your old email address when you do so.

How do I set up a seperate account for my wife?

We finally purchased a nice new iPhone for my wife. But she would like her own iTunes account. How do I set up a seperate account for her? She has her own laptop, with an iTunes account on it that I was using. Should I just un-install that iTunes package and have her download a new version? I'd rather have two versions so I don't lose the music on that old iTunes account. It's not huge, but would be a PITA.

Apple ID
Go to iTunes > Store > Sign Out (your apple id) and sign your wife apple id in.

How can I set up 2 email accounts in Mail

It's me again.
I'm trying to set up Mail 2.1.3. in 10.4.11. I have 2 email accounts. I can enter one just fine but it won't take another. When I try, it says that I "already have a POP account". How do I set up 2 email accounts? I see where I can enter the 2 email addresses by separating them by a comma. But the 2 addresses have different passwords and the password box takes only one password at a time. Any ideas?

It's hard for me to tell by what has been written so far, but it may be referring to what you are entering for the account description. That is, in Mail Prefs > Accounts > Acct Info, for each account it has several entries: Acct Type (that you can't change), Description, email address, full name. If the first account's description is POP, then make the second account's description POP2. I use terms like, "home", "work", and "school" for my accounts' descriptions.
If this is not what is going on, please write down every step you do, and every entry you make, as you try to configure your second email account and post it back here. Naturally, do NOT disclose your actual email address(es) or mail account login name or its password to us here.
