I can't set up a hotmail email!

Hi,
I can't set up my hotmail email. I go to setup in the menu, choose setup wizard, than Email setup, and there is the problem. There is no option: "I want to create or add an email address". Only:"I want to use a work email account with a Blackberry Enterprise Server"
Please help!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
To use the proprietary RIM Push email capability, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have Personal Email added to the email setup wizard.

I created an Apple ID for my daughter with her own gmail address, but I want her Apple ID and primary email address to be an iCloud email address. How can I do this? I can't set up an icould email address for her without first creating an Apple ID?

I have created an Apple ID for my daughter with her own gmail address as the primary email address, but I want her Apple ID and primary email address to be an iCloud email address. How can I do this? I can't set up an icould email address for her without first creating an Apple ID right?
I'm not good with computers so please explain in simple way...:)
I also wonder what the best way is to set up accounts for children in a family. I dont want them to be able to purchase apps etc through the parents accounts, also some things we like to share as a family and others we don't want to share. Is there any good. clear, simple explanation from Apple Support about these issues? Or best to go to Apple store and go to genius bar or one to one advise?
thanks

You can set up an iCloud account which makes the iCloud email address you choose the Apple ID and thus the login for it:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22283348#22283348
though I have to say I think it's more sensible if the ID is another address, both for security reasons (so people don't know what the login is) and as a contact address from Apple if the account were to stop working and they needed to contact you. So personally I would to to System Preferences, enter the GMail address which is an ID, and then choose a nerw @icloud.com address.
If she has her own iCloud account she will need either her own computer or her own user account on your Mac to be able to make use of it. You should note that under Apple's terms of use Apple IDs are only available to children of 13 and over.
As to purchasing apps, this is nothing to do with iCloud: it's iTunes, and the login can be different. So you can all sign into the same iTunes account but have different iCloud accounts. Or she can have her own iTunes account if she is of suitable age (credit card needed for purchasing apps).
If you have other children you should be aware that any one Mac or device can create only three iCloud accounts - this is tied to the serial number, not the user account, and once reached cannot be bypassed. You can of course sign into an iCloud account created on another device.

How do you set-up a hotmail email address in mail

how do you set-up a hotmail email address in mail?
I cant seem to add it. any ideas why it cant connect to the server? what server address should i be using?
regards
Brendon

Hi bmuur,
I also had the same problem.
I clicked Microsoft Exchange and kept trying to add my hotmail account that way but it kept asking for a server address for it to work.
If you go into Internet Accounts and instead of clicking Microsoft Exchange scroll down to the bottom of the list and click Add Other Account...
It will ask what sort of account you want to be created and I selected Add Mail Account and clicked create.
Enter your full name, hotmail email address and password.
I then clicked create and it worked for me.
Hopefully this solves your problem.

I can open hotmail, but it's not formatting right, i can't open emails, nor send them.
Thank you so much for trying to help. I really appreciate it.
I understand that you can't get a virus by opening an email, but it seems way too circumstancial! This is my third mac -- because unlike PC -- I never had a problem. I understand this problem is not with my macbook, because every other website works fine -- it's hotmail!

You got a new laptop? try asking there or in Lion forum.
If it has Lion, use the Recovery Mode boot Command-R
Use that to erase and reinstall - it has network install ability.
Want MacBook Pro forum or Lion Community?

HT2731 can I set up a second email address on iCloud using the same apple id

can I set up a 2nd email address on iCloud using the same apple I'd for a 4s iPhone?

You can create up to 3 alias @icloud.com email addresses for that purpose. They will all receive email in your existing iCloud inbox and they can be deactivated or deleted if they attract too much spam. This article explains how to create an alias address: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

Thunderbird is not an email provider. Only providers issue email addresses. Thunderbird is email client software.

I can't set up an imap email account on new ipad.

I went to settings and did everything required to set up my imap email account. The account won't send or receive emails. The internet connection is great. I can set up a Gmail account with no problems, but the imap account won't work. I had my ISP reset my password, so that isn't a problem. Any suggestions?

Thanks

HT201320 Can I set up a second email account that I want to keep separate from the one set up for my iPad. Can I choose to send from the second account but not to receive onto my iPad, only on my computer?

can I set up 2 email accounts on my iPad - one from which to send and receive and one to send from only ?

YEs, you can have multiple E-Mail addresses. Just add the additional accounts through the Settings -> Mail, Contacts & Calendars.
If you also change the mail settings "Show To/CC Label" to ON you can change the sending E-Mail server. You can also set the default account in there also, one more section down in the same E-Mail Settings section.

Can I set up a Mac email account on my old Macbook and iPhone?

I have a Macbook 2.1 (2007 I think) running 10.6.8 Snow Leopard with 2BG Ram, and an iPhone 4S. I would like to set up a Mac email account which will run and sync on both devices. Is this possible? I’d be grateful for any guidance.

Just to clarify, my understanding is that to use iCloud, I would need a Mac which can run Mountain Lion or higher. But my Macbook (as described above) is not capable of running Mountain Lion. Certainly the official Apple site says it's not. I believe some people with similar spec Macbooks are successfully using Mountain Lion but I'd prefer not to try this if it slows my computer down. Unless someone persuades me it'll work fine, I'd prefer an email solution which I could use with Snow Leopard and the iPhone.
I have looked on the official Apple support site and elsewhere but I can't figure out whether it's possible to create some kind of Mac email account (@iCloud or @me?) which would work on my old Mac as well as on my iPhone 4S. I'd welcome any advice..
