I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now that I have iMac I have changed the account type to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?
I do receive emails into my iMac for which I have 3 email accounts but am struggling on how synchronise between iMac and iPad so that both are up to date at all times.  I have also set up a iCloud email account thinking this was the way to go but have drawn a blank.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Linc Davis,
I have set up my email address both within my iMac and my ISP as IMAP accounts and I receive all emails without problem on my iMac. I have also set up an iCloud email address using my iMac.
I have enabled the email within "setting" on my iPad and have used the iCloud account.  I have sent emails from the iMac to iPad using the iCloud account address and vice versa.  I have also sent emails from the iPad to the iMac using my non-iCloud email address and they have gotten through.
The one thing I would like to have is for the iPad "mail" mailboxes to mimic the iMac "mail" mailboxes and both to be "in sync".  I am not really interested in using the iCloud email address for my email but would really like to use my "normal" addresses as these are what most people know me by.
Do I need to set additional accounts within the iPad which are the same as the email accounts I have within the iMac and my ISP?  I have reached the end of my knowledge as regards email synchronsing.
Thanks

  • I have a domain name with go-daddy can i use iweb to create my page?

    I'm trying to help a friend set-up a website.  he has a domain name with go-daddy but hasnt set-up the web page at all can i use iweb and upload it to the domain name he already has bought?  I'm a first time iweb user please help!!

    Your friend needs both a domain name and a web hosting account in order to get his website online.  If he has both with GoDaddy.com then yes, you can create and upload the site. 
    If he has purchased only a domain name he'll need to get a hosting service.

  • Why do I have to have a domain name with Lion Server?

    If I have just a small local network of macs and windows clients all under one roof do I have to have a domain name? Everything in the tutorials and looking through old posts seems to indicate that Lion Server works better if I use a domain name for my network. Pro and cons for a network newbie like myself please?
    Thanks,
    Tony

    Directory Services like Apple's Open Directory or Microsoft's Active Directory use a domain name server to support running such a service. Therefore if your going to run Open Directory (in your case) you need to run a DNS server and use a domain name. The domain name does not have to be a real one but using your own real one is often easier because -
    You can be confident it is not conflicting with anyone else
    It can make later setting up email and web servers easier
    You could however use a fake domain like fakedomain.private and then your server would have an entry like server.fakedomain.private
    I would advise using Open Directory (and hence a domain) as even if now you could get away without this on a small network, hopefully your organisation will continue to grow and might need this later. Doing it now saves changing it all later when it will be more hard work.

  • I have an Ipad 2 and an Iphone 4s. I can sync musics to the iPad, but not to the iPhone. Am I doing something wrong?

    Here's the thing:
    I first bought an iPad 2, it works fine with the iTunes. But since i bough my iPhone 4s, i've been able to sync, books, documents and even the apps, but not the musics. It's strange because with the iPad i sync musics all the time, but for some reason my iPhone doesn't sync musics.
    Does anyone knows what to do?
    Thanks!

    You repeated your statement in the description area which should be used to provide additional information about your problem. That's really not that helpful for us who are trying to help you.
    When you are directed back to the setup screen, are you able to enter any information at all? If you can, does it let you move on to the next screen? Can you do anything at all? Details, please.

  • Looking for a sound editing app I can sync between Mac and iPod Touch

    I have old interviews I conducted as part of an old job. I want to put them on to my new iPod Touch to listen to while traveling. Since I am only interested in specific topics and passages I need to bookmark where in these hours-long interviews these passages are.
    I can get these interviews from my Mac into my Touch easily with iTunes, but I cannot bookmark or make notations in iTunes. There is a plethora of apps that will playback and edit/bookmark sound files for the Touch, but all of the ones I have found will only do this for files recorded with that app and they will only upload or email to my Mac but not send files from Mac to the Touch.
    If anyone has any thoughts on an app I have missed or a work around I would be forever grateful.

    LAN Manager authentication level was already set to "Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated" according to a web tutorial. I changed it to the option you recommended above.
    Still, only the public folder is visible.
    By the way - this is a brand new install of Windows 7. Almost nothing has been altered from its stock just-installed state.
    It is connected to my Mac via a cat-6 ethernet cable which is plugged into my Mac Pro's second ethernet port. I did this because the PC is a Maya workstation, and I do not want to slow it down by installing all of our corporation's IT-required software that slows our systems down. It is not connected to the open internet in any way - just file sharing to my Mac.
    My Mac is 192.168.123.130, the Win7 box is 192.168.123.132. Both have a subnet of 255.255.255.0 and a gateway of 192.168.123.130. I am UNABLE to ping the PC from the Mac. I am ABLE to ping the Mac from the PC.

  • Hotmail not syncing between MacBook and iPhone/iPad

    I'm 3 days into my new MacBook Pro, which replaced a PC laptop running Outlook.  With my old system, I coud check my Hotmail account in Outlook, and the messages would no longer be marked as new on my iPhone/iPad, and vice versa.  With the MacBook, my iCloud email syncs well between all three devices.  My Hotmail remains in sync between my iPhone & iPad, but not on my MacBook.  Is there any way to fix this?

    No, Hotmail can only be accessed via POP3 on your Mac. Pop accounts do not synchronize. Microsoft provide Active Sync services on a mobile device but chose not to for Macs.

  • I want to learn Exchange 2010 but dont have a domain name

    Hello All
    I would like to get more hands on experience using Exchange 2010 beyond the basics of creating mailboxes. I would like to do this at home in my lab environment that consist of one AD domain server with a forest functional level of Server 2012 R2. I found
    some pretty good install guides. So to get to my question:
    I don't have a domain name ex [email protected] is there a way around this? if the email is going to be internal to my lab can I just make something up and use my domain ex
    [email protected] or .com
    Thanks!!
    Phil Balderos

    No Problem you can deploy Exchange in your lab, test/try all the features with @mydomain.com or .local, however you won't be able to receive any mails from Internet unless you register your domain and have the proper public DNS records.

    Thank you Mohammed,
    I think I may get a Domain since its pretty cheap and I would like to broaden my skills as much as possible. With respect to getting a proper public DNS record I would image that I would get from the a domain registration company like godaddy.com

    iCloud only "syncs" data in the iCloud account, not data in other external accounts such as Gmail, Yahoo, etc.  If your email, contacts and calendars are hosted by another external account, such as Gmail/Google, you may want to not sync this data using iCloud as you would have import it all to the iCloud account in order to do so.  Instead, add your external account to your iOS devices and in Settings>Mail,Conacts,Calendars>Add Account and turn on contacts and calendar syncing with your external account.

  • How is it best to keep files synced between iMac and Macbook?  I work from home on my iMac and then out in meetings on my Macbook and need to have access to the same files on both.

    How is it best to keep files synced between iMac and Macbook?  I work from home on my iMac and then out in meetings on my Macbook and need to have access to the same files on both.  The folders are using Microsoft programmes as this is compatiable with 90% of my colleagues, therefore I can't use the Icloud service.

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

    Yes, but that has nothing to do with the cloud.
    It is simply wifi syncing between your computer and iPad over your local wifi network

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.

  • I bought an iphone 4. I have a MacBook Core Duo running 10.4. My husband has a Core Duo 2 running 10.5.8. Is there a way to move my ical and address book info. to his computer so I can sync with my new iphone?

    I bought an iphone 4. I have a MacBook Core Duo running 10.4. My husband has a Core Duo 2 running 10.5.8. Is there a way to move my ical and address book info. to his computer so I can sync with my new iphone without upgrading software.

    Hello hbell,
    is there any reason that you do not want
    to upgrade to v10.5.? Suggest you call
    1-800-275-2273 Apple Support. Automated call
    yet if you call back you can get in touch with an
    Apple Software Specialist. They may be able to ship
    you Leopard so that you can synch your new iPhone
    to you own computer. Have the serial numbers of your
    Mac and iPhone written down and ready for them.
    As far as transferring data to your husbands MacBook
    so that you can sync your iPhone on it I am really not
    sure. Seems like a lot of trouble to get your data onto
    your iPhone.
    Good Luck,
    A

  • HT1296 I'm having difficulty syncing my iCal between my home computer and iPhone.  New entries from my home are not syncing with the phone and vice-versa.  I didn't have any problems with this before until the latest phone update.  Any suggestions?

    It could be that the existing wire in your appartment is not clean enough to provision DSL only. When combined with the phone possibly it has a higher line voltage and worked before. Now that the line is to be provisioned without phone service it may be giving them trouble that did not show before they came out and ran the new line test. So a new jack dedecated for your DSL line may require a new wire be run to your appartment. Also the account for internet only used to require direct billing to a credit card or something else. This was a number of years ago. Most accounts are linked to a phone number, and without a voice number it adds to the confusion.
    If you are getting the voice and everything turned on as before, then I am at a loss for words.
