HT1694 Cannot delete email accounts

In settings under mail, the accounts are grayed out not allowing me to select them for deletion. What's wrong?

Have you currently got Settings > General > Restrictions > Accounts (in the Allow Changes section) set to 'Don't Allow Changes' ? If you have then change it to 'Allow Changes'

E72 - Cannot delete email account

Had problems setting up two email accounts on my E72. Now set up ok, however I have been left with one of the failed accounts that I cannot remove. This account is in emails and is listed under settings but when I try to remove it it sitill remains. I can not open this account in settings either. Any help on how to romove this account would be appreciated.

1. Login to email.nokia.com
2. After login is COMPLETE, check the server name in the browser window
3. Enter the name EXACTLY to the "settings" ==> SELECT ACCOUNT ==> "account settings" ==> "account information" ==> "server name"
4. Select "Back" (It is the right key)
5. You will see some messages and after that the account is either functional or at least you can delete.
(THROUGHT THE FORUM, account deletion problems are most likely happening due to server changes where your account information is stored. It happened to me that when I first created the account, the server was different then what I found today (it was a different server), when I solved my problems). When email.nokia.com ACCOUNTS are not in sync with your PHONE ACCOUNTS, this is most likely the problem. I hope it will help many.
Just one more thing: You will need to enter your email.nokia.com password in "settings" ==> SELECT ACCOUNT ==> "account settings" ==> "account information" ==> "Password"

HT1694 cannot delete email to trash on ipad

Suddenly i cannot delete my email to trash. How to solve the problem?

Reboot your iPad and try again. Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.

E71, cannot delete email account.

This problem has been dealt with but sollutions suggested does not work for me.
My E71 unlocked 3, works fairly well on orange. I deleted the 3 mail account and added a imap google apps account and does not work well due to folders on my google apps. It freezes. Now i m unable to delete the email account as there is no delete options.
Messaging > options > settings > E-mail > options has no delete option. available options are "change, New mail Box, Help, Exit"
This is same if I go to Menu > communications > messaging > Settings > E-mail> options
Thanks in advance

Are you removing your private email account or Mail for Exchange account or Lotus Notes?
Are you using Nokia Messaging service or direct connection to Email service?
What is the error message, when you try to remove mail account?
If you are using the Nokia Messaging service, go to the Email application, select Settings > Highlight the mailbox that needs to be removed > Select Options. > Remove mailbox. > Yes.

Apparently I couldnt do it as it kept requesting password when I entered passsword ( both old and new one, it wouldnt accept it as it had my old email address in ) It didnt do that on ios6 . Anyway I deleted account, but now I tried to login in with my new id/password and it says unable as already in use!!! More help needed please! Its a nightmare!!

Since last update I do not have a "delete" button showing on a toolbar. Therefore, I cannot delete emails without opening them. Please help.

Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

I have reached my 5 computer max and reset less than 12 months ago - I am getting an error to say I cannot delete the accounts until 9 September - is there anyway around this?

Delete contacts from a deleted email account??? (sounds confusing I know)

This will require an explanation before I can get to my question so here I go. I have several email accounts that sync to my phone. I have now deleted one of my email accounts. The problem is that when I compose an email from any of the remaining email accounts still on my phone and start to type the name of the contact that I want to send the email to contacts from the deleted email account are still being displayed. I need to be able to remove the contacts from the deleted email account from my phone. These are contacts that are not part of my phone contacts. They are contacts that I have replied to from the deleted email account. If I have not clearly described my issue please let me know. Thanks for any suggestions anyone may have.

There is a system-wide email address cache. The only way to clear that cache is to perform a Restore via iTunes, and set your phone up as new (the list is backed up), meaning you'd need to reload all your content, redo your settings, etc.

Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

Maybe ask someone in the Apple iPad forum. This is the Snow Leopard forum.

I cannot delete emails on iphone 5

I cannot delete emails on my iphone5. I do not have the delete button visable either while trying to delete on email on batch.

Not clear what you are asking, There is no "batch" delete option for the Inbox - all emails have to be deleted individually. Only the Trash folder has a "Delete All" button shown after touching "Edit"
To delete individual emails, swipe finger across the preview and "Delete" will show, or select "Edit" on top right and select each one you want to delete.

" Cannot Delete iCloud Account - There was a problem deregistering this iPhone with iCloud. Try deleting your account again"! i can't sign out my icloud account

I want to sign out my icloud account but I can't. When I try sign out, I received notification " Cannot Delete iCloud Account - There was a problem deregistering this iPhone with iCloud. Try deleting your account again"

Backup to computer first and sync Apps to iTunes first!
Restore in recovery mode will work, be persistent and retry
Recovery restore challenges
- computer didn't detect recovery iphone, attempted and failed 3 times
rebooted computer then recovery restore worked
- recovery restore was successful, unlocked, and iMessage/Facetime, Find My Iphone, ALL WORKS!
Restore from backup challenges
* Make sure you have plenty of harddrive space!
- have to restore first then restore from backup, i did this incorrectly by restoring from backup and the find my iphone feature got stuck forcing me to recovery restore
- each restore from backup attempt will copy the original backup and create another backup folder. My original was about 10gb, so it copied another 10gb onto my computer's harddrive
- when i restore from backup, my computer ran out of space and errored out/failed.
- I tried again to restore from backup then figured out where the backup data folder was and tried to transfer to external harddrive but not quick enough and failed again.
- finally cleared the extra backup data files and restore from backup was successfull
Missing apps from restore from backup
- Downloaded all my missing Apps from APP store
- I have 300+ apps and there are only 15 screen scrolls, have to organize before apps will populate and load, very difficult to organize now. Wished I had sync Apps first.
Conclusion
This process took me literally 20+ hours to correct and will probably take me few more hours to organize the apps into their respective folders...
At least I got everything to work. Hope this helps!

I cannot delete emails I have a iphone 3GS running IOS 6.0.1

I cannot delete emails, I have an iphone 3GS runningIOS 6.0.1. I tap edit and the red circle appears, but no delete rectangle or dustbin appears

AT&T does not issue unlock codes for iPhones. I had to think a minute, because I never had a 3GS myself, and thought it might have been different for them, but my daughter had one, and the unlock process is the same as for the 4. After AT&T approves the unlock (which means the contract has been fulfilled), they notify Apple. AT&T then sends the phone's owner an email detailing the process to unlock the phone, which consists of backing up the data, then restoring the phone as new in iTunes (which is where the unlock comes in), then restoring the data backup and then syncing. I went through this to unlock my AT&T iPhone 4. SO, I'm not sure what the unlock code business is about, except that it doesn't sound legit.
