How do I set up my iPhone 4s with iCloud, so I can see and receive emails from my standard email box from my iMac?

I have set up iCloud on my iMac and on my iPhone 4s.
I can send an email from my iPhone to see on my iMac but not the other way around. If I am to recieve an email from a friend I want it to appear on my iPhone, and all my mac devices, thats the whole point of iCloud.
Please help.
Regards
MH

If your friend sends an email to your @me.com iCloud email address, and your iCloud email account is setup on your phone, the email WILL appear on your iPhone.
Have you setup your @me.com iCloud email address on your phone correctly?

  • Set up new iPhone 5 with iCloud restore, then iTunes created new library with only content already on phone. How do I find and sync everything in original library?

    My daughter got a new iPhone 5 and we set it up using the option to restore her iPhone 4 backup from iCloud. This worked great and everything on the old phone showed up on the new phone. Because we were traveling, we weren't able to sync the iPhone 5 with iTunes at that time.
    She purchased new apps and music on the iPhone 5. When we returned home she synced with iTunes, and it seems to have created a new library, with only the content currently on the phone. I don't know if it prompted her to do this on the first sync or not - she doesn't remember.
    So in iTunes, the library now only shows the music on the phone. A sync isn't doing much now because when choosing the phone in iTunes and selecting each content type across the top (Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows) the box is unchecked to sync that content. When I check the box to "Sync Music", iTunes gives a warning:
    Are you sure you want to sync music? all existing songs and playlists on the iPhone Becca's iPhone will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library.
    Same goes for apps, except that warning also mentions that the apps and their data will be erased and replaced.
    At some point she was also getting a message that this iPhone was associated with another library, but I'm not sure how she had triggered that. She says she canceled out of that. I can see all of the music
    How do we get iTunes to see the "old" library of songs, videos and apps without losing the ones she's purchased already on the iPhone? The music files themselves are still on the computer, and include music both purchased from iTunes as well as music ripped from CDs. Thanks for any advice!

  • HT4759 how do I set up my i pad with icloud?

    How do I set up icloud on my i pad?

    If it's running iOS 5 or higher, go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, then turn on the data you wish to sync.  You can also enable photo stream and iCloud backup if you want to use these.

  • How to get deleted songs on iPhone back with iCloud?

    I was playing around on my iTunes trying to figure out how to sync playlists onto my iTunes library because they weren't there and by accident I clicked on something and it took a lot of my songs off my iPhone.  I backed up my iPhone about an hour ago, so how do I use that to put the songs back on my iPhone? Please help I'm so confused.  I only have about 40 songs on it now which were downloaded from recent purchases I think, but how do I get the other few hundred songs back? Some of the songs weren't downloaded from iTunes, they were from CDs. Please help

  • My husband and I both have user profiles on our MacBook Pro.  When he is signed on with his profile, he can see my gmail contents from his email account mixed with his email.  How do we separate our profiles?

    Why can he see my email but I cannot see his?  And how do I remove my email account from his profile?

    Does this mean you have to seperate accounts set up, and use fast user switching to get into your own user account?

  • How do i set up three phones on one icloud account?

    How do I set up three iphones on one icloud account? I do not want the contacts, data mixed

    It's a bad idea if these phones belong to different people.... all of your information will be merged and everyone will have everyone's contacts and whatever else you are pushing to icloud.
    However, all you need to do is go to settings>icloud and sign into the same account on all 3 phones.

    Do you mean iTunes library?
    iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.

    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • How do I set up my iphone 5 so I can access my family account? I purchased music from itunes using my apple id, and those songs do not appear in our family cloud.

    How do I set up my iphone 5 so that I can access my family account? Recently I purchased music from itunes using my apple id, and now I cannot find those songs in our cloud. I wanted to add those songs to my ipod. Do I have to buy them again using my husband's apple id?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can use different ID's for iTunes and iCloud.
    Just delete the account in settings > iCloud and create them their own account.
    if the children are minors, you wiil need to create and be responsible for each account yourself.

  • Hi, I set up my new iPhone S4 with iclouds. So the data of my old S3 should move to the S4. However, some applications could not be loaded on the S04. Now some apps are loaded and others not . How can I progress?

    Thanks. I can change the forwarding settings in Gmail to be either POP or IMAP. That is quite simple. I just looked at those settings on the Gmail server and, to my surprise, both are enabled. In order for outlook client on my computer to receive IMAP emails I have to change the email account settings in my current outlook from POP to IMAP. I don't need to be using the Exchange version of Outlook to receive IMAP. I guess I'll do a little research tomorrow on Exchange so i can figure out what, if anything, it might do for me.
    I glanced at the link you sent me and it looks like it might be very helpful - another project for tomorrow.
    BTW: I hit "This Solved my Question" by accident. I meant only to "like' your response so you would get some benefit from the help you've given me so far. I hope I haven't discouraged others from taking a shot at helping me. I suspect there is more than one way to approach this and, as you know, my problem isn't really solved until I have what I need all set up and running smoothly.

  • How do I set up my iPhone 4s to sync automatically to iTunes when connected to my iMac via USB?

        How do I set up my iPhone 4s to sync automatically to iTunes when connected to my iMac via USB?  Currently it only syncs when I manually click on sync.
        Somehow I do have my 5th gen. iPod set up to sync automatically with the same iTunes / computer.  But I do not actually see a checkbox for either device.
        (yes, the 'prevent devices from automatically syncing' is unchecked)
