How does one successfully set up a comcast email account in your iPhone 5?

You need to get the required settings from Comcast for creating the account with the iOS email client.

  • Setting up a Comcast email account on the iPad

    What is the best way to set up a comcast email account on the iPad?
    Do I only have the option to use 'Other' or can I set up using MS Exchange?

    Thanks. I had to try and set up for another user. I would never even consider using comcast. So outdated it's almost a joke. I find it easier to only use my iCloud email on any of my devices. I just have any other email accounts forwarded to my me.com address and just reply from there. And if you use Gmail it doesn't play nice with Mac Mail.

  • How to set up passwords for two Comcast email accounts on Mail?

    Have Leopard. Cannot set up passwords on Mail for two Comcast email accounts. Does anyone know how to do?

    Hi Paul, & a warm welcome!
    Lineone
    Login
    [email protected]
    Incoming email (IMAP)
    imap.lineone.net
    Incoming email (POP3)
    pop3.lineone.net
    Outgoing email (SMTP)
    smtp.lineone.net
    What port & Authentication are you using?
    Can you login with your credentials in a Browser using the same info?
    In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the exact message?
    Then click the Show Details button & Check again.
    The Password rejection can confuse people since it's a catch all meaning...
    This Password, Username, Authentication method... is not recognized on this Port to this Server, or a server end problem.
    If using a browser to login via WebMail works it's not Name or Password, but one of the other ones.
    The receiving email ports are:
    IMAP is port 143
    IMAP-SSL is port 993
    POP is port 110
    POP-SSL is port 995
    Outgoing ports are...
    SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

    If you have two-step verification turned on, turn it off by logging into your Yahoo mail account on a browser.

  • HT201320 Help trying to set up my wanadoo email account on my iPhone

    Help! Not a clue how to set up my wanado email account on my iphone5

    You have an email provider. This is not Thunderbird. You access the email account that you have with your provider on devices like phones and computers using an email client software. You setup the client software with the details for your provider like server names and ports. Your phone should have come with an email client software installed. Use that to check your email.
    Thunderbird has nothing to do with checking your email on your phone.
    You can always use your providers web mail account and log into that using a browser like Firefox or Chrome. Then there is no need for email client software.

    Outlook is an e-mail client that runs on PCs and Macs. It is NOT an account type.
    Who is your email provider?

    if i set up a new email account on my iphone 4 can i get security code or extra pin to stop others accessing the new email account?

    No, and if I noticed anyone that I allowed to use my iPhone checking my email which is the same as opening any of my snail mail without my permission, that would be the last time they used my iPhone.

  • How do i set up a new email account

    I'm trying to set up a new email account. When I open preferences/new account, and put in my name, a new email address and password, my mail program just turns on the beachball and says it's not responding. Not sure what to do.

    It's an iMac (Intel), and yes it is a G5. I'm not a techie, but pretty sure Intel makes it a G5.
    Anyway, I guess you know what the add account box looks like in Mail. The top window automatically has my full name in it. In the email address window (the new account I want to set up), I put in the new email name I want - for example,  [email protected] Then I put in the password for my .me account that I know works because I can sign in and access my stuff. When I hit the create button, I get the spinning beachball, and eventually, when I do the three-finger salute to force quit, I see that mail is not responding.

  • My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new itunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted when i sync it to my new account?

    My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new i tunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted whin i sync it to itunes after purchasing new music?

    I have the same problem (deleted email account). I think I mistakenly set up an account when I was buying an Apple product online, not realizing that it would be the same ID as my iTunes.
    What is the way to actually contact Apple?
    I have been clicking around in circles for hours! Will I have to pay them to resolve this? I don't have any products still have applecare . . .
