    Sounds like you don't meet the system requirement for either the iPhone or iPad and/or have not updated your iTunes.

  • How to I set up a verizon mail account in Apple mail?

    How to I get up my verizon mail account in Apple mail on my MacBook Air and iMac? 
    It's set up an works on my iPhone and iPad, but even though I duplicate the setting (as far a I can tell),
    it doesn't work.  It keeps akiing me for the password, thought I set the exact same password that works on
    my iPhone/iPad.
    Thanks,

    I have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account or delete messages etc. For some  reason, I CAN send mail on Apple mail using this account, although it takes several minutes. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari and internet explorer on my office PC. It's obviously a glitch in Apple's Mail. I've deleted this account and reopened it in Mail on my Mac Pro with no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, this E amil account is major to my business.

    sounds like a corrupt database or index
    the glitch is your home folder and mail folder, esp look at syncservices
    I'd post in the mail or Lion forum where you will find similar issues being discussed.

  • After installing Mavericks on my iMac, Apple Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account.  Now Mail crashes every time I open it.  What's up?

    After installing Mavericks on an imac, Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account.  After I clicked on All Mail the program crashed and now it crashes every time I open Mail.  Does anyone have an suggestions?

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Can I set my iCloud email as the outgoing mail server for my google apps email account in Mac Mail?

    I have a google apps email account from an old client, all my work emails have been going to it for years. As I'm no longer affiliated with this client I'd like to make a transition to using my iCloud account for work. I asked people to use my iCloud address but as they've been using my google apps address for years it's what automatically comes up when they type my name.
    I figure the easiest way to make a transition is if I reply to all the emails that arrive at my old address from my iCloud address and gradually they will start using my new address without realising it. But I can't find a simple way to do this.
    In Mac Mail preferences > accounts > Google IMAP (my old account name) > Account information > Outgoing Mail server (SMTP) I'd like to set my iCloud SMTP server. But although my iCloud account uses its own outgoing mail server for its own account , it is not in the server list when I select my google account. I've tried to add it to the server list as smtp.mail.me.com but it caused my whole iCloud account to give me error messages until I force quit Mail...
    Any ideas?

    In iCloud/Mail, have you tried going to Preferences (select with gear at lower left)/Composing and setting a Send from address there?

  • Lost e-mail accounts in Apple Mail

    My Mac Pro froze a few days ago and had to restart the computer. Upon restarting the computer, the Apple Mail lost two e-mail accounts. I mean they just disappeared. Another four will not connect to the mail server, keeps on asking for the password, even know it is correct (works fine on my MacBook Pro). Anyone know how I can get the two missing accounts (and e-mail messages) back, as well as having the other four accounts pull messages successfully from my mail server? The remaining e-mail accounts are working fine. Very strange, do not know why this happened. Any help, I would be greatful.

    Backup. SuperDuper would be #1 choice.
    Repair. Disk Warrior 4 is #1 choice for last 7 yrs.
    Setup some backup disks and an emergency boot drive.
    Boot from your DVD and instead of installing, click on Utility Menu -> Disk Utility -> Repair Drive under First Aid.
    PS: This is not the MacBook/MacBook Pro forum.

  • How do I sync Googles Apps in Mail 5.3 (re-post)

    There's a post here about setting up Google Apps email through MS Exchange on Mail.app 5.2, but this doesn't work for me in 5.3.
    The email I've been using for well over a decade is from a former dial-up ISP (Worldshare.net) and I am paying $10/year to keep the address.  They've since moved mail to Google Apps.
    I'm looking to close that account, but I'd like to save some of the messages, preferably in Mail.app format.  I'm looking at no more than 200 messages and, if I could only get those into Mail.app, I can preserve them in a folder "On my Mac."
    I opened a standard gmail account, hoping to Import these Google Apps messages, from which they could be accessed in Mail 5.3, but gmail won't accept the Worldshare IMAP credentials.  I've enabled POP on both accounts, but still no luck.
    Any thoughts on how I might get this done?
    Thanks.
    PS:  I am also unable to set up this Worldshare Google Apps mail account on iOS6.

  • How can I import my Google Contacts to use with Apple Mail?

    Google's GMail user interface has become impossible to use. Its most important and useful features are either hidden or have been removed. I want to change to use Apple Mail to retrieve email from my Google account, to answer that email, and to compose new messages.
    To compose new messages, I need to be able to use my Google Contacts (created one by one as I've used GMail in the past). I could either "set things up" so that Mail would access my Google Contacts or I could import my Google Contacts to a Mail address book. How do I accomplish one or the other?
    Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi David C. Murray!
    There are a couple of methods for accomplishing this goal. First, you could always export your Google contacts in vCard format and then import them into Contacts on your computer:
    Contacts (Mavericks): Export and import contacts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15080
    The other option is to set your Google contacts to automatically sync with your Contacts app on your computer:
    Contacts (Mavericks): About Contacts accounts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15070
    Contacts can manage your contact information from other accounts, such as Facebook and Google. Just add those accounts (choose Contacts > Add Account), and you’ll have access to all your current contact information from anywhere.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,
    Braden

  • How to fully sync my Earthlink email account with my Mac's Mail?

    I do get the new Earthlink emails in the Mac Mail Inbox, but I would also like every action on the Earthlink, respectively Mac Mail account, to be reflected on the other. I.e. every deletion, send, etc.
    As is the case between my Outlook server and client.
    Is this posible, and if so how?
    Also, the default setting being, unfortunately, to delete emails from the server after they have been downloaded, I'd like to put those emails back on the server.
    Is this posible, and if so again how?

    Not possible with an Earthlink account since an Earthlink account can be accessed as a POP account only.
    This is possible with an IMAP or Exchange account.
    Also, the default setting being, unfortunately, to delete emails from the server after they have been downloaded, I'd like to put those emails back on the server.
    This is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences with the Mail app. The only way to put messages removed from the server after being downloaded by an email client is to send/forward the messages to yourself. Welcome to the limitations with a POP account, which orignated from the early dark ages of email account access with an email client on a computer.

  • Checking multiple e-mail accounts with new Mail app?

    Is it possible to check multiple e-mail accounts using the new Mail application?
    I am wondering if I could use it for both a business e-mail account and a personal e-mail account or if I would have to pick only one to use.

    Haha!
    Well, I plan on waiting until the SDK is released before buying any software.
    Since it appears that the system updates included in the App Pack will be required to use any software released thereafter I am fairly confident that at least that part of the App Pack will eventually be free.

  • Problem setting up ATT email account with Apple Mail

    I have a main ([email protected]) and sub email account ([email protected]) with ATT/Yahoo (formerly SBC).
    I set these accounts up on Apple Mail for the first time, and selected the option "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message "RIGHT AWAY". But Apple Mail would not allow me to select that option for both the primary and sub account. It allowed me to select that option for the first account I set up (the sub account), but when I tried to select that option for the second account (the main account), it would not permit me to save the option and gave me the following error message:
    The account path /Users/edelbert/Library/Mail/[email protected]@pop.att.yahoo.com is already being used by the account "GIFilm"
    It will allow me to select the option to remove the copy AFTER ONE WEEK, but then I receive the same message over and over each time Apple Mail checks the ATT server.
    ATT claims that it is the result of an SSL conflict between its software and Apple's, and claims that Apple has created a bug fix, but I can find no evidence of such a patch.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks

    As far as I can tell, the problem might be with my password. It's working on my iPhone, but not my computer.
    If it's just a matter of changing the password, it's cool. But I can't figure out how to change the password.
    Any ideas on changing the password in mail preferences?
    Thanks,
