HT4898 I forward my other email accounts to my .mac email account, will all of that info be deleted?

Will I have to re-do the directives from my other email accounts? do you suggest saving all of the account info separately before
migrating to iCloud?

Your @me.com / @mac.com email address will not change, so any external email accounts you have setup to forward to that address will still arrive in your iCloud account.
If you had MobileMe collect email from external accounts via POP3 (not forwarding) that won't work as iCloud cannot collect email via POP3.

  • Why Apple is blocking email from reaching my mac email account that I would like to receive.  How do I correct this?

    Apple is blocking email from reaching my mac email account that I would like to receive.  How do I correct this?  There are some important emails that I am not receiving because they never make it to my inbox or even my spam account.

    Hey there MikeMach,
    It sounds like people are sending you emails but they never arrive to your inbox or your Junk folder. According to the following article you may need to reach out to iCloud support directly for assistance:
    iCloud: Identifying and filtering junk mail
    Due to the complexity of accurately detecting and filtering out junk mail, on rare occasions a legitimate email from a friendly source may be blocked from reaching your Inbox. This is called a false positive.
    If you feel that a legitimate email message was inadvertently filtered, you may want to ask your friend to send a follow-up email to verify that the issue exists. If you notice that multiple email messages are being delayed, bounced, or not delivered, contact iCloud Support. Also make sure to check your Junk folder for email messages that were incorrectly marked as junk mail. To check your Junk folder at iCloud.com, choose the Mail application and click the Junk folder in the sidebar. Email messages in the Junk folder are automatically deleted after 30 days.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Forwarding old email to a new mac email

    Is there a way to forward my comcast.net email address to my new .mac email
    address, I recently switched to FIOS and comcast is cancelling my email address
    FIOS will forward for 30 days only to a verizon.net account not a mac account

    Jason,
    Forwarding should normally include attachments, images and links. However, forwarding of messages with RTF or HTML will often trigger a spam filter somewhere in the path which could then alter the message. You need to be sure that is not happening. To check this send, or have someone send, a simple Plain Text message with attached JPEG to your old account, and see if this forwards correctly.
    What SMTP is being used by the old account, and who provides it?
    Keep in mind that if you receive messages in your old account, then you can Move them to the .Mac account Inbox with a simple Move To command in the Rule rather than a Forward, and then they would be in the .Mac Inbox with the original headers instead of those headers that result from a Forward.
    More info, please.

  • Add email alias to my .mac email account

    I've been searching and can't find the right answer on how to do this. In mail Help, it tells me to open Mail>Preferences, click on my existing account, go to "email address" field, add new address (ie - [email protected]) separated by comma. Close window, click save in window that pops up. Tried that twice! When I open new message, click on account drop-down menu - not there. Help??

    Hi Ollie,
    You're right, it doesn't make it available when you do that, but it does store that info in...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    I can't try it right now, but I wonder if a reboot is needed before it sees.uses it!?

  • Cant delete email on server via mac email imap client

    Hi,
    Firstly, if this is posted in the wrong location, apologies, I didnt know where to post an email client question.
    I have a macbook pro 10.6.7 and have an email account setup to my SKY email account. Its an imap account (i think its basically a google mail underneath!).
    I also have the account configured on my iphone and ipad.
    OK, the infuriating bit!
    If i delete an email from my ipad or iphone, no problem, it gets deleted from the sky/google server.
    But if i delete them from my macbook, they just stay on the server!! Mailbox settings are to move deleted messages to trash and perm delete on quitting mail.
    Help please

    Check your Mail configuration on the Mac, what you are describing looks very much like you were using the POP3 server instead of IMAP to get your mails. The two servers have the exact same IP Address and are hosted at google. If you selected the POP protocol with the IMAP Address it would still work as both have the same IP.
    POP3 - pop.tools.sky.com Port 995 (IP: 209.85.227.208)
    IMAP - imap.tools.sky.com Port 993 (IP: 209.85.227.208)

  • Help. Created new account with same .mac acct. Now all old questions gone.

    Can someone at apple help me get my questions back into my account - I had to recreate it and now all my old posts are gone. Can they merge it back in? I recreated the account during the outage with my same .mac email.

    I don't think that's possible... But who am I to say.
    Try this: Go to this page but don't fill out the form. Instead, click on the "Forget your Apple ID?" link and fill out the form on the next page with the relevant information. It should be able to give you any Apple IDs you have set up in the past.
    Hopefully you'll find that, under the .Mac address you're using, you actually had a separate +Apple ID+ that you can use to log into your previous Discussions account. (Note that your Apple ID is not the same thing as your forum alias and is not necessarily your email address.)

  • TS4006 Contacts entered on iPad /iPhone will not appear on Mac but do on each other. Contacts entered on Mac do appear on all three

    Contacts entered on iPad and iphone5 will not appear on Mac but do appear on each other. Contacts entered on Mac do appear on iPad and iPhone ?

    Hi denctanner,
    I did read the post. I was simply explaining that Contacts does not sync with the OTA Sync function, it syncs via iCloud if you want to sync wirelessly....
    The OTA Sync option on the Info page has nothing to do with the iCloud syncing of your Contacts....
    Try deleting your iCloud account on your iPhone and signing on again. Once you have signed iCloud back on, make sure all the options you want checked are checked, and then try it again. (When you delete it, you will get a message that it will delete your Photo Stream and Document but don't worry, when you sign back on, they will come back).
    Cheers,

  • Hacked iTunes account - unpaid for stolen goods - how will Apple clear that

    Hi,
    my iTunes was hacked a month ago. Apple has done nothing, not even responded to my "Report a problem" on all the apps that were stolen through my account.
    there is about $30 owing on my iTunes account. I am not going to pay for someone else's apps. Now I can't download ANYTHING from iTunes till it's paid.
    Anyone else had this problem, or received this level of NO SERVICE from Apple?
    Does anyone know of anyother provider for apps that work on iPhones seeing as I can't use iTunes?

    my iTunes was hacked a month ago.
    I assume you've changed your Apple ID password. If not, you should do that ASAP, or else as soon as you fix the account problems, you'll be back in the same situation.
    Apple has done nothing, not even responded to my "Report a problem" on all the apps that were stolen through my account.
    You should go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ and click on one of the relevant billing questions and you'll eventually see some options on the right hand side of the screen for contacting Apple directly. Depending upon when you do it, you may see chat or phone or email options. Keep on trying that until you get chat or phone options. Those guys should be able to help you. The "report a problem" link probably won't get you the sort of resolution you are looking for.
    there is about $30 owing on my iTunes account. I am not going to pay for someone else's apps.
    You shouldn't need to. After talking with Apple, you might also want to talk to your credit card company about the best way to proceed.
    Anyone else had this problem, or received this level of NO SERVICE from Apple?
    It took me a while to figure out how to contact Apple customer service (as outlined above), but since then, I've always found them to be pretty helpful and responsive.
    Does anyone know of anyother provider for apps that work on iPhones seeing as I can't use iTunes?
    Not really (or at least not easily). But you may be getting ahead of yourself. Apple customer service should be able to help you.

  • How do I transfer a Movie from my windows itune account to my Mac itunes account?

    How would I transfer a movie, which was downloaded to my itunes account on my Windows computer, to my Mac I tunes account that has all my other movies on it?

    Right-click them in iTunes, locate the files, move them as you would any other, and drag them into the open iTunes window on the MacBook Pro. iTunes Store rentals can only be moved through an iPod or similar device.

  • Question about mac email attachments

    Hi,
    Troubleshooting for my boss who is having trouble opening email attachments in her mac email from just one friends email account.
    The attachments are xls and pdf files from a pc user who is using yahoo mail. This happened suddenly in the last week. The mac user can open other peoples attachments of the same file extensions. The mac user can also open the same blocked attachments if the files are forwarded from a different user to them. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a configuration I can change in the yahoo mail of the pc user that could have triggered the mac user to now seemingly be blocking attachments from the pc user? Several other mac and pc users can open the same email attachments from the pc user who is being blockied from my bosses mac email account. Hope this made some sense and thanks in advance for your help!

    Its a Mac Pro running 10.9.4.
    If it matters the pc user is running windows 7 home addition.
    The problem began after the pc user accidently sent the mac user a tiff file. The mac user was unable to open that tiff file and then suddenly all other files sent by the pc user regardless of file type could not be opened by the mac user. They work together so it's imperative that they be able to send xls and pdf files back and forth. Thanks for your help.

  • MacBook not receiving .mac emails

    I have set up the mail programme to receive my .mac account emails as I have done with other laptop and desktop devices in the past - but for some reason emails are not coming through to it.
    I have the right incoming and outgoing servers set.
    Can anyone throw any light on this problem?
    Thanks
    Peter

    Hello Peter.
    Did you create your .Mac account as a .Mac type
    account on your MacBook?
    Any error message provided when the account checks
    the incoming mail server for new messages?
    Hi Alan,
