I have 2 different mail accounts on my iPad how do I set up passwords for each of them

Can someone help me with my problem

You cannot password protect email accounts on the iPad. the iPad was designed as a single user device. You cannot have multiple accounts or password protect apps on the iPad.

I have a POP mail account on my Ipad. After I trash emails, they sometimes reappear latter that same day or the next day. Why is that and what can I do?

I have a POP mail account on my ipad. When I trash my emails, they reappear later that day or the next day. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what to do to stop it? Thanks

I have that every now and then, especially if I have an interruption when using emails, like network loss, etc.
I think the email app loses track somehow of what emails it has fetched from the server and redownloads them.
If this continues, you can try deleting the email account and recreating it, but I occasionally have had this issue since I got the iPad 1 a year ago.
Note: My settings are Delete from server = Never.
(I clear the server's email with my laptop, not my iPad.)

How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox

My younger sister executed my firefox just at this afternoon(she originally use IE), and she saw something that can't be seen. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox?

Also see this for an English version of Profile Password:
*Profile Password: http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html#PPF
It is an extension to protect the profile with a password, but being an extension that protection can easily be bypassed by starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]].<br />
So do not rely on it.<br />
If you want to protect content then you have to use methods supported by the OS like a separate user account with a password or an encrypted file system.

I have 2 e-mail accounts on my Ipad, one personal and one business, how do I navigate to send e-mails from the correct address?

I have 2 e-mail acccounts on my Ipad, one personal, one business, how do I send from the correct
address? At this point it does not give me an option.

You can set a default email address here:
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > underthe Mail section - Default Account.
Any email you start will use this account by default but you can change this manuall by tapping the email address in the From field. That whill bring up a dial to select the email address you want to send from.

I have 3 different mail accounts which i have consolidated under Apple 'Mail'. whenever I log in it proceeds to download hundreds of emails each time to the extent that my disk (the largest you can buy and the computer is only 4mths old) is now full

i took my computer to the genius bar at a store last time this happened and after about 30mins they found a 'hidden' file that held thousands and thousands of old emails, which they deleted. Unfortunately I didnt see where they found it so I could do the same again. i have gone directly into my email accounts and deleted everything over 12mths old so there are limited amounts (7,000) that 'Mail' should be able to download, but that doesnt sem to make a difference. any ideas?

You issue is probably with your email provider. You should check the settings for each account and somewhere you will be able to set it for something like: Delete mail after X days. If you are using POP mail you can find this setting in Mail Preferences - Accounts - Advanced and look for Remove copy from server after retrieving message and then set the toggle.
BTW if no one on this forums knows where the "hidden file" you are referring to is then please repost in the Lion forum, that is where most Mail related questions should go. The reason being is Mail is considered part of OS X.
Good luck.

If I have 2 mail accounts on my IPad how do I make the opposit main my default to get mail

on my IPad I have 2 accounts, 1 is Verizon the other is yahoo. It has Yahoo as my default one but I'd like to make Verizon my default one. Yahoo. Takes all the mail, notepad, calanders and a few other apps in it. i was going to delete the yahoo one to make Verizon account but it says if I delete my Yahoo mail account it deletes whatever is on my note pad. Etc.So does anyone know i can switch this. Please n Thank You.
EThel

Open Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calenders->under mail scroll down to Default Account which will say Yahoo. Tap on it & choose Verizon. Now whenever you start an email, the default 'from' will be your Verizon email.

Can I have two yahoo mail accounts on my iPad but only have one account push and the other fetch or manuel?

I have two yahoo email accounts but I want my main one to push email and the other one to be manuel or even fetch, is this doable?

You don't know what push means.
Push means new messages received at the incoming mail server are pushed out by the incoming mail server without the email client being used to access the account having to check the account automatically or manually which is called fetch. An account can be checked automatically without having to open the Mail app which is not push.
Manual with the Mail app on an iOS device is not the same as manual with an email client on your computer.
If you launch the Mail app, all email accounts will be checked for new messages even when manual is selected for an account. If manual is selected for an account, it should not be checked for new messages until to launch the Mail app.

HT5622 how do i set a password for a game account

being asked to set a game account password...how do i do that

Hi Dennis,
The password (to protected unauthorized access) to your wireless network is set on your wireless router. Typically most routers come with a setup wizard, either that involves running an installation sequence (via CD/DVD) or by connecting to the router via a web-based control panel and configuring the router that way. In addition to setting a password to access the network you'll also want to set a username/password for accessing the router to perform administrative tasks.
You'll want to consult the manufacturer of your router for additional setup assistance, or the manual/quick start guide that came with the product.

When I open mail I get a list of the messages received but when I click on a message it does not displaying the main window. I have 2 different mail accounts

Just bought a new MacMini(my first Apple PC) and when I open mail I get the brief details of mail received but whe I click on the message to read the details I get a "loading" sign but the message is not displayed.
Any help for a Dumbo would be appreciated.

Very strange, do you have any AV or Web filtering apps like Norton installed?
Do the working accounts use a different Port or Authentication than the non-working one?
The receiving email ports are:
IMAP is port 143
IMAP-SSL is port 993
POP is port 110
POP-SSL is port 995

In my iCloud e-mail account on my iPad, how can I replace the Trash button with an Archive button?

Apologies if this is a simple question, I can't seem to find anything that might have changed it.

Looks like you can archive icloud emails :
- go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars
- select the icloud account on the right-hand side of that screen
- tap Account (which should have your address next to it) at the top of the next screen
- tap Mail (under 'Advanced') on the popup
- tap Advanced at the bottom of the next popup
- and on the next screen there should be a 'Move Discarded Messages Into' setting
I didn't know that setting was there until you said that you had archive on your phone.

Can I have three different iCloud accounts in my iBook? one for each user of the family? Thanks

I have a computer at home which is used by 5 family members. Each of us have a separate user in the MacBook. Can each of us have a different iCloud account to sincronize with each of our iPhones or once you download the iCloud for one of us, no other iCloud will be added to the same laptop?
Many thanks.

Hi Valeriano009,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You are already on the right track with 5 individual user accounts on your computer. Please be sure to back up your main Apple ID account before making any changes below.
The article below will explain in more detail ... but it sounds like you will want to create a separate Apple ID for each member of your family to keep their contacts, calendars, Photo Stream etc. separate.
If your family has made a lot of iTunes Store purchases, you can stay signed in to your current Apple ID to have access to them. Or your family members can start fresh with their own iTunes Store purchases. Please review the Frequently Asked Questions section in this article:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
Each member of your family should log into their own user account on the computer, and then click on the link below to create their unique Apple ID.
Apple - My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Make sure that the email address you want to use for your Apple ID meets these conditions:
The email address is one that you use regularly, because it will be the primary email address for your Apple ID.
The email address is not associated with any other Apple ID.
The email address is not an iCloud email address, which is already an Apple ID. iCloud email addresses end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com.
If each family member is currently using the old Apple ID for their iCloud account on their devices, they will need to follow these steps:
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Before you delete the old iCloud account from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, turn off each of the features ( contacts, calendars, etc. ) and when prompted, choose to "Keep on My iPhone" if you wish to keep that information. If your family member doesn't need or want any of this information, then skip down to the selection below to delete the iCloud account completely.
Turn iCloud features off
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn off iCloud features.
When you turn off a feature, you’re asked whether you want your device to keep a copy of your information stored in iCloud for that feature.
Once you have saved the contacts, calendars, etc. that you want from the current iCloud account on your family member's iPhone, then you can delete the old iCloud account from their device.
Turn off iCloud completely
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
At this point, I would suggest turning off the device, and restarting it. Then, tap on Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap on Add Account. Tap iCloud. Now type in your family member's new Apple ID email address and password.

I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Can I have two private mail accounts under one Mac account?

Hi. My wife and I share one MacBook Pro. We have one user account set up on the MacBook Pro (i.e., when we turn the computer on, we both use the same sign-on ID and password). We do not want to set up separate accounts.
With this set-up, can we each have our own Mail account? We want to be able to use Mail to access our respective gmail accounts, each of which has its own separate password. We do not want to consolidate both gmail accounts into a single Mail account. Is this possible? Thank you

This is not possible if you wish to prevent each other from seeing the other's email? If you set both email account up in Mail, they will have separate Inboxes (seen by clicking on the small black triangle to expand to show each one), and if you enter the Gmail SMTP twice, taking care each time to give it a different name, and use each account respective email address to Authenticate it, then they will coexist nicely, but not with complete privacy.
Complete privacy is only available with separate User Accounts. In one User Account the underlying files could be read even if two Mail folders were allowed.

HT204053 Can I have 2 different iTunes accounts? One for UK and one for US?

Can I have 2 different iTunes accounts? One for UK and one for US?

Assuming you are physically present in each of those countries when you wish to use the iTunes Store for that country, and that you have a payment method issued in each country with a valid billing or mailing address in that country, then yes. You'll need two Apple IDs, which will require two email addresses.
Regards.
