  • Iphone 6Plus will not allow POP email account and cannot print to my wifi printers, I did on my Iphone 5 until I upgraded, can anyone help

    Iphone 6Plus will not allow POP email account and cannot print to my wifi printers, I did on my Iphone 5 until I upgraded, can anyone help

    I had talked with three people at Apple tech support on the phone, one person in the Apple store in Indianapolis, plus the other places I mentioned. Only the one young man in the Apple store was even able to identify the problem which was the POP vs. IMAP issue. And then like you said he was only able to say he hoped it would be fixed in the next update release. I did call him back this morning and told him about your simple solution, that I had seen it at the Apple forum, and that he might suggest bringing this topic up at the next staff meeting. I also let my Verizon rep know and an agent at Comcast. Something so simple yet it took three days and a lot of frustration to get fixed. Thanks again. You're my hero! ~ Carol Thomas
    Also forgot to mention ... I got the iPhone 6 Plus about three weeks ago and did not have this problem. But I did a backup of my iPhone 5S on the computer and then used that backup to restore to my new iPhone. The iPad I did differently and just set it up as a new iPad with no restoring from the old one. That must have made a difference on the phone because it was set up just like the 5S ... as a POP3.

  • Nokia C3-00 - Cant set up my Yahoo email account? ...

    Hi
    I recently bought the Nokia C3-00 on Vodafone but asked them to unlock it so that I could use my exisitng O2 contract. 
    I want to set up my Yahoo email account, but Im having great difficulty!
    When I initially put my O2 sim card in, they sent me the settings for MMS and Web.  I can get on the internet and I can access Facebook, but I cant seem to access the Nokia Ovi Store or set up my Yahoo email account.
    I watched this http://www.youtube.com/user/nokiasupportvideos#p/u/15/lTlWUH5EqMw Nokia Support Video on Youtube but my menu looks different to the one in the video!   When I click on the Mail icon on the Menu screen I have a message appear saying 'No mailbox created. Set up mail now?'  If I click 'Yes' It says 'Use an existing mail address?' to which I also say 'Yes' and proceed to emter my email address, etc.  Should this be happening as I notice in the video that Yahoo Mail is one of the options in the video, however as I have said I do not have that screen!
    Can someone please help!?
    Thanking you in advance!
    Sarah

  • I seem to have two email accounts with my service provider and they are receiving the same email as far as I can see.  Can I delete one and feel safe that I am receiving all of my email.

    I have three separate email accounts showing up in my Mail program on my MacBook Pro.  Two of them are my local email provider one showing up as SaskTel Email and the other showing up as sasktel.net.  The third one is ICloud.  Can I delete one of the SaskTel ones, as they seem to get the same mail.

    What do you tell your friends to use to send you email?
    Are they going to the same "Incoming Mail Server", logging in with the same "User Name" ? If so, they are two instances of the same account, and one can certainly be deleted with impunity.
    This detailed information is in
    Mail > Preferences > Accounts > ...
    ... click on the accountname and inspect those fields.

  • I have a Plusnet email account but cannot add folders to the mailbox

    I have added an IMAP Plusnet email account to my mail but when I try to add a new folder to the mailbox I get a message saying it can't be added to the server. Plusnet say it is not a problem with their system.

    Assuming that you can send and receive emails with he account and that everything else is working OK, close the mail app completely and reboot the iPad. I also assume that you are seeing the Edit button at the top of the email account window that let's you add New Mailboxes.
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app thumbnail preview window to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Cant log in to my email account

    Have an existing email account with Cox communications. [email protected]
    I set it up on my Nokia 1020 but it won't connect! Called Cox but they won't help! aT&T can't figure it out either!

    Hi lvhyflyer,
    Welcome to the forum! 
    What exactly happens when you try setting up your Cox account on your Nokia 1020? Do you get any error message? Also, do you have other email accounts set up on the phone? If yes, are you getting the same issue with the other accounts?
    Setting up an email address requires a mobile data or WiFi connection. Try testing it by visiting websites using the mobile browser. You may also try deleting the internet cache of your phone by going to Settings > Applications > Internet Explorer > delete history before re-setting up your Cox email.  
    If you have the right settings from your email provider, check this link for the steps on how to properly set up an email account on your Lumia 1020: Set up or delete an email account.
    Hope to hear feedback from you soon. 

  • I can open my bell email account, but cannot click on anything.

    I can log into my Bell email account normally. Once in I cannot do anything. If I click on an email it will say " loading", or "reading", then "done", but nothing will happen. I cannot delete anything or access anything. In Explorer everything works normally.

    1. Press hard the trackpad to register the click. If you can, uncheck and recheck
       all Point  & Click settings.
       System Preferences > Trackpad > Pioint & Click
    2. If you canot do the above, reset PRAM  and SMC.
       1. Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222
       2. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    3. If this does not help, contact Apple.
    Best.

  • 2nd email account error - cannot get mail

    Cannot Get Mail
    The connection to the server
    "mail.ljtyres.com" failed.

    You can try deleting and recreating the offending email account on the ipad.
    But first, have you tried a restart? Hold down the sleep and home buttons until the apple logo appears on the ipad screen.

  • I cant seem to receive any email from my gmail account.  suggestions?

    All of a sudden this morning I have lost the ability to receive gmail emails in my apple mail box . sending is also a little slow.  any suggestions as to what could suddenly go amiss?  thank you!

    new account are created without a password, so asking for it is normal.
    see http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/pssswords.html
    Compare the passwords Thunderbird has for the other accounts and see if using the same one is what you need to do.

  • I cant seem to add my new apps from my computer to my ipod!!!

    Help!!
    I bought a few new apps on my computer and want to put them on my ipod touch. They didnt download when I synched...and although im on manual, it wont let me click on them to drop them into my ipod??
    any ideas? I dont want to erase all my apps and their data!
    thanks!

    Are the apps compatible with the iOS version on your iPod? Is the iPod signed into the same itunes account that purchased the apps? Have you tried downloading the apps direction on your iPod using the App Store app? If the iPod is signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps you will not be charged again. See:

  • I already have photoshop subscription but cant seem to add just illustrator to it?

    I am already subscribed to photoshop and pay the student price of £8.75 per month. I would like to add Illustrator to this package but the only option that comes up is £40 something per month for the full suite. I do not want it all. Please help.

    You cannot just arbitrarily add products to special plans like the photography ony. If you need those programs and wnat student pricing, then a full plan is realyl your only option.

    Is this because you have stuff on your iPod that is no longer in iTunes? If so, then you need to manually sync your ipod...
