How do I set up my mail account if the the listed providers does not apply to me?

I am trying to set up my email account through the email I have for school. The popular email providers do not include my universities provider and I am not sure of what kind of information they are asking for when you are given the option to do it manually.

The last entry in that list is "Other."
Click that option and set it up manually. If there entries that you are not sure how to fill, ask your school IT.

How can I set an outlook mail account to the mail app in mac

My outlook mail account doesn't work in the mail app, it keeps asking for my password everyday, and the outgoing mail server says "outlook.com (dissconected)".

I don't have Hotmail, but generally, web based email accounts need to be set up within that account (in this case Hotmail) - you need to go to your Hotmail account and check if it can be set up as an IMAP or POP account with emails automatically being forwarded to Mail. Hopefully someone with a Hotmail account will chime in with more specific info; in the meantime, check out the options in your account there.

How do i set up multiple iCloud accounts on the same mac?

how do i set up multiple iCloud accounts on the same mac?

Interesting - I was sure I'd seen a note somewhere that it was only Mail, but this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4020
does say
Your secondary iCloud accounts can be set up and viewed in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on your iOS device, or Apple () menu > System Preferences > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on OS X Lion. You may choose to do this if you have a second iCloud account and need to access its Mail, Contacts, or Calendar data.
Note: While you can configure multiple iCloud Mail accounts in iOS, Push mail will only work for the primary iCloud account in iOS. Secondary account(s) will check for mail based on the settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data.
It's not something I can test - I suppose the second account's data gets added to the lists in iCal and Address Book?

SharePoint 2010 list view - How to filter on a multiline text box field - the view filter does not allow me to select it.

Hi there,
Does someone know in SharePoint 2010 list view - How to filter on a multiline text box field - the view filter does not allow me to select it.
Thanks,

Hi，
Per my knowledge,
it is by design that the data type multiple lines of text can only use “contains” and “begins with” operators.
You can also filter the list view using SharePoint Designer,
Open your list AllItem.aspx page in SPD ->click “Filter” > in “Field Name” select your multipe line of text field, in “Comparison” will displayed four choices.
Best Regards，

How do I set up a mail account for an older macbook?

I'm trying to set up a mail account for my dad on a used (but refurbished) macbook. It's running 0SX10.6.8. I'm not sure how to configure the incoming and outgoing mail servers. I didn't have to do this for my macbook air and my brother did not have to do it for his pro. I don't know if im supposed to use POP or IMAP. A window will pop up asking for the account type, incoming mail server, user name, and password. I don't know what to do from here.

Hello,
Your Internet/email service provider should be able to tell you exactly what to enter. You may also want to take a look at the following web page:

How do I set up my Mail account on a Verizon Ipad?

I have been trying for a week to set up my mail account. I have talked two hours to Verizon and two hours to Apple Care. Noone can help me. I can log in to Safari and then verizon.net and then my name and password but why can't this automatically be set up for my mail account from the Home Page/ Noone can help me and I am so frustrated!

This site was of no help to you at all? I sent you this link the other night.

Have you tried the Verizon forum for help? Have you seen this?

How do I set up my Mail account on my network?

This problem has been driving me nuts for weeks now!
Let me fill you in on what is going on.
I had set up the free 60 day Mac Mail account with the following address:
This account expired and I did nothing for several months because I had a hotmail address. Then I decided to create a website and found that a .Mac account subscription was the best course of action.
Upon creating this account I ran into trouble because I tried to use the address I had created before and kept getting an error message saying that account already existed (Although I had no access to it to make any changes, I don't know why). So finally I said the heck with it and just created a new account with the new address:
Now every time I click on a "contact us" link on a web page, which opens my Mail Application, I get the error message again saying:
Enter Password for Account
The SMTP server "smtp.mac.com" rejected the password for the
user
Please re-enter your password, or cancel.
I know that my password is correct, so why won't it recognize it? I know that it has something to do with the settings but I am so unfamiliar with the lingo related to email (POP,SMTP,SSL, Server Port,.......All Greek to me!).
I did notice that there were several accounts within the Mail>Preferences. So what I did was delete all of them so that I could start fresh when I get a response. Thanks in advance. I hope that I was able to give enough info. I just figured that since I paid a hundred bucks for this .Mac account I should at least use all of the features!

Who is your internet service provider used for connecting to the internet?
Will you also be accessing an email account and SMTP server that is provided by your internet service provider with the Mail.app?
Upon creating this account I ran into trouble because I tried to
use the address I had created before and kept getting an error
message saying that account already existed (Although I had no
access to it to make any changes, I don't know why). So finally I
said the heck with it and just created a new account with the
new address:
You no longer had access to your .Mac trial account because you let the account expire several months ago without purchasing the .Mac account before the expiration date. This is common practice with many ISPs and email account providers. Once an email account/address is set up, if you let the account expire or cancel it, you usually can't use the same address if you decide sometime later to renew.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below for the .Mac SMTP server.
Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
If this doesn't resolve it, there is another option.
FYI - you shouldn't provide your email address out in the open in a public forum such as this since spammers can easily "harvest" your email address this way causing being bombarded by spam.
Would you like your email address removed from your post? If so, I can request this with a moderator.

You have to upgrade to Lion for the iCloud preferences to be available.

How do I set an e-mail account as default for new messages?

I have two different e-mail accounts set up on my iphone. I want to be able to use the e-mail view that includes messages from all accounts/inboxes. When I am in that view and create a new message, my iphone will automatically select one of my accounts. It is unfortunately not the one I most often want to use. I don't find a way to change that setting - but I am sure it is possible! How do I do it... Thanks!

No I don't have that option. I can see the corresponding option for calendars so I understand where it should be - but it isn't there. It's as if the account set up by mobileiron is disregarded and the system only thinks I have one account. But still - the mobileiron account is listed right there....
If there isn't a simple solution that I had missed I guess this looks to be a bug, right? How would I report such....?
Thanks

GAH! How Can I Set Up My Mail Accounts?

I have 15 email accounts in total, each with it's own unique 64 character password. Manually setting up email accounts on my devices is clearly not an option. No worries, because up until today, I simply synced my mail account data from iTunes. You only have to do it once, you don't need any sort of on-going email account data syncing. The accounts keep their own mail in sync, so the 'setup sync' was a one time deal. And I didn't sync the accounts with mobile me, or later icloud, because I wanted different accounts on differnet devices.
Well I just got my new iPhone 5S and I'm trying to set up my mail. But I can't! There's no way to sync Mail data! I tried turning on iCloud Keychain (which was a complete disaster the first time I tried to use it, but I need my email!) I tried deleteing my iCloud account and re-adding it on my phone (and my old phone that I erased, and re-setting up as an iPod). But no matter what I do, I can't get any mail accounts to show up.
I NEED my email on my phone. There is no way around it, I cannot function without that. I don't even put my phone number on my business cards any more, only email. Email HAS TO WORK. But thanks to Apple, I can't get it on there.
It would seem that my only option is to get it to sync via iCloud Keychain? That's going to cause me an unlimited amount of headaches, but if that's the only way to get mail accounts to sync, then I guess that's what I have to do. But how do I do it? I have turned on iCloud Keychain on all of my devices and computers, but no mail accounts are syncing.
All my Macs are currnetly on Mavericks, and all my devices (iPad mini, iPhone 4S deactivated, iPhone 5s) are on iOS 7.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
This type of service is offered by IMAP email accounts such as the me address that is associated with your iCloud account.
Are you saying it isn't working or are you trying to add a third party address (ie gmail, yahoo etc etc) to your mail account and expecting it to work like an IMAP account.

How can I set up my mail accounts to sync sent and read messages automatically?

I'm not sure how to set it up so my flagged emails, sent messages, and read messages will show the same in my MacBook Pro and my MacBook Air. This seems like it would be a simple problem to fix, but I can't figure it out.
Thanks!!

How do I set up a guest account using the AirPort Express 2nd Generation?

I Just purchased a new 2nd Generation AirPort Express. The features list and the set-up guide says that I should be able to set up a guest account, but nowhere have I found how to do this. I am running AirPort Utility 5.6 on my MacBook Air under Lion and I even get a message that I should not make updates using version 5.6 because it is not the appropriate version for the 2nd generation AirPort Express. Software Update says there's nothing new for me. When I search the Apple support site there is not even a version of AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Lion though there is one for Snow Leopard. Even when I installed that version on my Mac Mini running Snow Leopard, I could see no way to create a guest account.
I came across a YouTube video describing a demonstrating how to set up the guest account on Time Capsule and the AirPort Exteme. There it's quite obvious because in the General section there is a tab for setting up the guest account. There is no such tab in either version 5.6 of the AirPort Utility I'm running under Lion or version 5.6.1 running under Snow Leopard.
What am I missing?
-Bill

Apple assumes that you are connecting the AirPort Express to a simple modem....not a modem/router or gateway type of device......that provides both modem and router functions in one enclosure.
If you have the AirPort Express connected to a gateway device, the Express is detecting that another router is present on the network, so the Express operates in Bridge Mode to prevent the conflicts that would normally occur when two routers are on the same network.
Open AirPort Utility 5.6, select the AirPort Express and click Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon, then click the Internet Connection tab
If the Connection Sharing setting is currently configured to "Off (Bridge Mode)", the Guest Network cannot be enabled with the type of "modem" that you have without breaking some basic networking rules.
