HT1277 Mail mobile me vs iCloud account

when setting up a new account in mail it persists in being a mobile me account rather than the required iCloud account??????

What do you refer with Pro? If it's a Mac, check if it uses Lion and configure the servers: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864?viewlocale=en_US

I sent e-mail photos from iPhoto using my @me account but I do not find the history of sent e-mails in my new iCloud account. Where can I find the history of sent e-mails?

Using iPhoto as the email client in iPhoto does not creatge a sent copy. iPhoto indicates in the Info drawer if a photo was emailed by iPhoto (under the Sharing section):
There's no easy way to search for photos that have been emailed. Each photo has to be inspected via the Info tray.
One could add a keyword to emailed photos which would let a smart album keep track of those photos.
A better solution, IMO, is to set Mail as the email client (in iPhoto's General preference pane) and use it. That will give you an sent copy, better access to your contacts and, if you want a theme, numerous photo themes under the Stationary section of Mail.
OT

Following = Impossible; no such option in mail preferences - iCloud Mail couldn't be enabled from the iCloud Preference Pane. Open Mail and add your iCloud account from Mail preferences.

What is your question?

After 1st Gen iPod touch reset, cannot configure mail for Mobile Me or iCloud account

I recently reset my iPod touch 1st Gen, v. 3.1.3 (7E18) and have not been able to configure Mail to check the Mobile Me or iCloud mail server. I get an error msg that the user name or password must be incorrect, but they're not. I assume this is due to the old IOS not being up to date with iCloud technologies, but I was able to get mail on this device before resetting. I don't use it much for email, but do carry it on trips as a backup access device to get to mail and calendars. I dont really want to use Safari to check mail when there is a mail app for doing so.
Any suggestions?

What do I do when my iCloud account is not the same as my Apple ID? And I do not have access to the e-mail address that the iCloud account is set-up under.

How do I get access to the iCloud account to remove/change it on my phone to match my Apple ID?
iPhone 4, trying to access iCloud
cannot remember password
do not have access to the e-mail that the iCloud account is created under
have an Apple ID, it is a different e-mail than the iCloud account.
Went to store and the person there tried a number of things. I tried all manners of possible passwords as well.
End game: Just want to have an iCloud account I can use on my iPhone.

Do the following:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

How can i change the e-mail address on my icloud account?

I'm trying to change the e-mail on my icloud account as my current e-mail has been hacked... How do i go about doing this?

you dont change the email, you just use another one, what makes you think you've been hacked?

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

Sorry ?
An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

2 app accounts, mobile me and icloud account

I had a .me account (paid) and downloaded apps via the app store. now with iCloud i had to create a new account and i do have 2 accounts, how can i switch my app downloaded from 1 account to the other ? because now i do have to fill in my 2 password to update my apps.
The one downloaded with my icloud account will update automaticly when i put my iphone to the power, but my other apps (downloaded with my mobile me account) don't get the update and i do have to retype my password.
tnx,

You are going to get more battery drain with the 2 push accounts. Try removing the Exchange account for one day and see what happens to the battery life.

What you have experienced, though annoying, doesn't necessarily mean someone has hacked your account, though if you were finding that you were blocked because the sending limit had been reached that might indicate that you had been hacked.
What can happen is that when people receive emails which appear to come from their own address but they haven't sent they naturally tend to be concerned: however it's most unlikely that anyone has hacked their account, they've just been targeted by one of two common spammers' techniques: both arise because it's all too easy to forge the 'from' address on messages to be something other than the real one.
There are two methods. One is that the sender has forged the 'from' address to be the same as the 'to' address (so other people will see it coming from themselves, not you), presumably in the hope of confusing spam filters. It's harmless, if extremely annoying. Delete it (never ever answer spam or try to unsubscribe from it), and you don't need to be worried about it.
The other problem is that a spammer is forging your address as the 'from' address on a whole batch of messages. The first thing you hear about this is when you start getting bounce messages because the spam has been sent to non-existent addresses and is being bounced to you. There's no point at all in responding to it. It's infuriating but normally stops after a bit as they move on to another forged address.
There isn't really anything you can do about it: closing the account isn't really worth the hassle unless you are totally swamped, because you will have to tell everyone your new address. Apple can't really do any more than they already are about spam. However changing your password on general principles is a good idea.

Getting "Error in sieve filter" message with each incoming mail and cannot recieve or send mail to or from iCloud account apart from Apple emails!! Please help!

Since approx 7am GMT I've been getting "Error in sieve filter" message with each incoming mail, worse though, since about 12 noon I cannot recieve or send mail to or from my iCloud account apart from I've been getting emails from Apple (ie I've just received a welcome one from Apple Support Communities...)!! I've had this account for years, never had a problem - it can't be the OSX Mail server because the problem is the same when I log directly into iCloud. I've tried sending emails from my Hotmail account to my iCloud account (a .mac) and just get undeliverable messages back. I'm really in the s**t now at work. : ( I just set up a Smart TV yesterday with a wireless dongle - that's the only thing I've done out of the ordinary. I've spoken to Sky who are my ISP and they say all's fine with them (although the router kept kicking my off the internet this morning which was strange...). Router seems fine now though. I'm really hoping someone here can help!!
Many thanks!!

Do you think once Apple sort this out I'll get my missing emails back?

Mail cannot connect to iCloud account

Hi,
My Mail client stopped connecting to iCloud all of a sudden this morning.
It has been set up a while ago and always worked fine.
Now it shows the broken connection icon, and when I click on it it asks for my iCloud password.
I enter the correct password and click OK, and nothing happens. The broken connection icon remain and I do not receive new e-mail and cannot send emails.
I am certain this is the right password as I can log into iCloud webmail, and my iphone and ipad remained connected.
How can I solve this frustrating issue?
Is there something wrong with the iCloud server, or is there something I can do?

In System Preferences > iCloud > uncheck sync to Mail.
If you have other email account go to System Preferences Internet Accounts and uncheck sync to Mail
Go to your User's Library. How to view the User’s Library folder
1) Go to Containers in the User's Library folder. Delete the com.apple.mail folder.
2) Go to the Mail folder. Rename the Mail folder to MailXX
3) Go to Preferences in the User's Library folder.
If you find any com.apple.mail.plist files, delete these.
Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar
Log in
Open Mail. It will open in an empty Mail with no accounts. Add one account at a time and verify before adding a second email account.
Let me know if this helps. If you have messages saved under "On My Mac" we can import those into the new Identity. We'll go over those detail after we get your iCloud account working.
We can rename MailXX to revert if needed.

Can't activate the "archive" Mail option in my iCloud account

When I go to:
Settings>iCloud>Account>Mail
There's a switch for "Archive Messages". I can turn it On, but the "Done" button stays grayed out so I can't save this change. I can't change other settings there, like my name, neither.
Is this normal? What can i do to turn on the "Archive" option in my iCloud account?

Sorry, I mean I can't see the folders in my hotmail account. It works fine with my iPad3, but my MacBook Pro has an issue with it...

When i send an e-mail out with my iCloud account it does go out but it never arrives at the e-mail address.

I am sending out e-mails from my IMC desktop from my Icloud account. It makes the swooshing sound so it sounds like it is been delievered. But sometimes it never arrives at the e-mail address. I double checked the "sent addresses" and they are correct. What is going on here? Thank you

I have same problem, but on iCloud.com site.
When i send email, then person whom i send it dont get it, befor i thought it is problem with my iphone but eaven from iCloud.com dont recive. i have tried to send email with iPad, iPhone macmini and all of them have same problem 5 to 10 times in day. some times helpes bbc to my self but not all the time.
i see these emails on sent folder, even if i send from macmini then i see them on icloud.com but not on address where i sent them.

Can I add a second e-mail address to my iCloud account?

I already have an iCloud account with one email account. Can I add a new email account?

No. Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account. (You can add additional alias addresses within this account but they will all deliver email to the existing inbox.)
