I set up my icloud mail account on pc but i can't add it on iphone

Music is not part of backup.
If you want music on iPhone you need to select them in iTunes then do a sync with your iPhone connected and selected

  • I tried several times to setup a mail account with Thunderbird, but next time I boot the computer and start Thunderbird, no account is shown.

    I bought a new desktop PC with Win 8.1 and installed Firefox and Thunderbird.
    Then, I tried to configure the e-mail account manually (as IMAP) following the instructions provided here: https://support-en.upc-cablecom.ch/app/answers/detail/a_id/22 , but failed to configure the smtp outgoing mail server correctly (I could receive mail, but not send them). Subsequently, I deleted that account. Then, I launched the automatic mail setting tool provided by UPC Cablecom under the link http://www.upc-cablecom.ch/content/dam/www-upc-cablecom-ch/Support/executables/upc-cablecom-email-assistent.exe and it did successfully setup the account, however as a POP3 account. As I was not happy with it, I deleted the POP3 incoming mail server (and lost the received e-mails, of course...) and retried a manual setup. Doing so, I obtained an incoming IMAP mail account plus two outgoing SMTP server (comparing them, I also understood the configuration mistake I had done the first time). I then deleted the manual SMTP server as the automatically setup server worked properly.
    In this context, both receiving and sending e-mail worked OK. However, the next time I started the computer, the e-mail account disappeared and Thunderbird asked me to setup a new account again. I successfully set it up manually one more time, but the same problem surfaced again at the next boot, the e-mail account was gone...!
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Tanks

    You have to follow the process outlined here to recover contacts from an iCloud backup: Recovering deleted iCloud contacts from an iCloud backup..  Otherwise, as you have noticed, the recovered contacts are overwritten when your device reconnects to iCloud.

    my iCloud says account not verified but doesn't send me an e-mail for verificationl, have tried this maney times but no e-mail reply ?

    Check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

I type in the correct password in the iCloud account and mail account under settings but it always reverts back and preventsme from getting mail. Can only retrieve mail from i cloud on my competer.

    Why would you delete your iCloud account for a password change with your Yahoo account?
    Regardless, if no problem re-creating your iCloud account on your iPad, contact Yahoo technical support.

  • HT204053 iCloud mail account on iphone, but password doesn't match corresponding Apple ID password

    I have an iCloud mail account on my iphone linked to my Apple ID. however, the password to iCloud account appears to be different to the Apple ID password and I don't know what the password is. Is this how it should be or is it a glitch? Is there any solution to recovering it, as I cannot use the mail account without the password?

    Hey Michael,
    The password for your Apple ID account should be the same as your iCloud account (unless you have two separate accounts). If you no longer remember this password, or would like to reset it for good faith, you can do so by following the information in this resource:
    Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID password

  • Remove additional icloud mail accounts

    My daughters each have an iPhone, and they've been using my apple ID in the app store and for their mail. Since I discovered the family sharing, I setup an icloud account for each of them, but when I go into settings, icloud, scroll to the bottom under advanced and click on mail, they have other icloud mail addresses, not the one I recently setup under family sharing. How can I delete these icloud mail accounts and set their phones up to use their new icloud account?

    Yes, I'm trying to setup Family Sharing because in the past, their devices all had my Apple ID, so they could buy apps and music, but as they're getting older, they're tired of sharing the same Apple ID, mine, because when someone texts them, they both get it.
    I've already setup Family Sharing using my Apple ID, and I assume I've set it up correctly, so when you first enter the iCloud settings, my Apple ID is at the top of the page and under it lists their names, which is where it used to read Family Sharing.  Now that they each have their own iCloud account, I'm trying to setup the device to use it,  but from what I can tell, it looks like they tried setting up their own Apple accounts because they were tired of receiving each other's texts. When I go to advanced iCloud mail settings (at the bottom of the iCloud settings page, they have multiple iCloud accounts. I'd like to delete all of these and only use the one I setup for them, but I can't figure out how to delete these accounts from the device. Or, is it possible for me to add one of these accounts, which are already listed, to my Family Sharing account and then delete the others? Only problem is, I can't figure out how to delete these iCloud mail accounts from the device.
    I know this must be confusing to understand, I use Android, so I've attached a couple of pictures from the settings screens that I'm referring to. Hopefully this will help me explain it better so you understand whatII'm trying to do.  Thanks.

    So I basically won't run into any trouble? I
    There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that.  You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

    Thanks for the response.
    Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
    Unlikely. But nothing is impossible.   Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

  • What is the advantage of an iCloud mail account?

    I recently updated to iOS 5 on my 64GB iPad 2 +3G. I signed up for iCloud using the same Apple ID I have been using all along.
    I was also able to create a new iCloud mail account using @me.com.  What is the advantage of having this new email account?
    I kind of understand the function of iCloud. It enables me to access the same content via all my iOS devices.  If I have a photo in my iPad 2, for example, iCloud could push that same photo to my iPhone if I had one.  (It is not much use to me now as I have no other devices besides my iPad 2. I guess I could use the computer at the library and access stuff at iCloud.com.)
    The two email accounts I already have are already accessible using other devices.
    I can access the same Yahoo account using my iPad 2, an iPhone, or a computer at the local library. So, why do I really need this iCloud account?
    I have seen postings from others who have had prior Apple IDs, @me.com accounts, and something called MobileMe. My head spins when reading those posts.
    I am new to the Apple world, so luckily I don't have those problems concerning the use of previously established stuff.
    I used the same Apple ID I already had to set up my iCloud, but I used a slightly different variation of that email address to set up the iCloud mail account.
    Was that a mistake? I am now wondering if I should have kept it all the same. It tells you you cannot change the @me.com address once it is established anyway.
    Also, the iPad is considered superior to other tablets because of the wealth of apps available (140,000). Isn't that a little hyped?
    There seem to be a lot of duplicative apps that are not too useful. For example, there are tons of calculator, alarm clock, and reminder apps in the app store.
    Thanks for any insights you can provide.

    "What is the advantage of having this new email account?"
    It is simply an extra email if you wish to use it. You don't have to.
    "Also, the iPad is considered superior to other tablets because of the wealth of apps available (140,000). Isn't that a little hyped?"
    No. It is actually +600,000 apps.
    The 140,000 is iPad specific apps. You can also run iPhone apps and universal apps just fine.
    Sure there are lots of duplicates and a bunch of apps are lame but there are definitely plenty of very good quality apps.

  • How to set up an icloud mail account?

    My iCLoud email is not working.
    What is the Incoming Mail Server for iCLoud?
    The Outgoing Server says: (iCloud, Offline)

    Open System Preferences>iCloud.
    Switch Mail off, reboot, then switch Mail on again, Mail will (or should) be setup automatically if it is an iCloud mail account.

  • ICloud mail account could not be enabled

    Since I have updated to Mavericks I have been having difficulty with "Mail".  I had 4 accounts; two of which were gmail accounts.
    After reading about the gmail issues, I was hoping that the recent "Mail Update for Mavericks" would solve my issue. Unfortuantely my issues remain.
    The problem first began with the program taking minutes (up to 10 min) to load; forcing me to force quit the program many times.
    I slowly deleted the various accounts from my icloud account. Interestingly in the System Preferences under "internet accounts" it would initially not display all of the accounts that I had listed in the mail program. It would also take 10 min to load the accounts into the Accounts Pane on the "internet Account" dialog.
    Even after deleting each of the accounts; including my icloud account and then only re-enabling my icloud account things didn't get better.
    Now "mail" doesn't load at all. And I can't enable "mail" in the Icloud system preferences.
    It times out after 3-5 minutes saying "Your iCloud mail account could not be enabled. Try enabling it again". Of course; trying again gets the same message.
    So I'm stuck not using "Mail" at all; and I don't know what the issue is.
    I've moved on to "AirMail" and it is working fine. But would like to use "Mail".
    Any one else getting this???

    I had this problem & found these instructions, it worked everything as it was before the upgrade now, except I've lost the old email accounts I deleted.
    The problem was caused by dodgy entries in the accounts.plist file in my User Library folder. It appears that either when I upgraded to Mavericks this file gained many thousands of duplicate entries, or maybe these entries were in there before but previously the OSX/Mail combination was more tolerant. When I removed these the problem with Mail disappeared. Here’s what I did….
    1> Make the user Library folder visible - in Mavericks this is a lot easier than Lion/Mountain Lion. Simply open up your user directory in Finder, select menu View>Show View Options, and select “Show Library Folder”
    2> Navigate through username>Library>Mail>V2>MailData and select the Accounts.plist file. If this file is multiple megabytes (mine was 40+mb) then this is likely the cause of your problem (once sorted mine ended up at 19k in size!)
    3> To be safe, make a copy of this file (I placed the copy on my desktop).
    4> Using your chosen text editor (I used Text Wrangler but I’m sure TextEdit would work just fine) open the Accounts.plist in the MailData folder (not your backup copy) and take a look. If it’s the same as me you will find hundreds and hundreds of entries for the same mailbox repeated in there. Mine was an old MSN mailbox that I never use any more (I’ve seen in other forums that other Hotmail type accounts also seem to be the culprits in this context). There will likely be two lots of repeated data, one in the XML “DeliveryAccounts” <array> section, and one lot in the “MailAccounts” <array> section.
    5> Delete (keeping in mind the need to select the XML sections correctly from <dict> to </dict> completely) all those extra entries that you found, keeping the mail accounts you do need, in the XML and save the file.
    6> Mail should open up nice and fast again and not eat your system
    7> If this did not work, and causes problems because of over eager deleting in <5> you can replace your broken Accounts.plist file with your backup and try again.

  • Can't setup iCloud mail with my MobileMe id

    Just installed Lion on my Early 2008 MacBook Pro. I am trying to setup iCloud Mail & Notes for the first time in the System Preferences. iCloud asks me to "Choose an email address." I already have a MobileMe address so I enter that. iCloud responds by saying that address is already taken. Of course it is, by ME! Whe won't it accept my email address? It appears that iCloud wants me to create a totally new address, but I already have one?
    Thanks!
    OS X Lion 10.7.3
    MacBook Pro (early 2008)
    iPhone 3G (System 3.3.2)

    I do have two separate Apple ID's. One is my original ID (before there ever was iTools, mac.com, MobileMe, etc.) linked to my local Internet service email address. The other Apple ID is an old @mac.com. I thought @mac.com and @me.com were one and the same (aliass or each other)?
    I have successfully started setting up iCloud from my System Preference using both ID's. I have tried both. I can setup Contacts, Calendars, etc., but when I try to setup Mail & Notes, iCloud says that someone already has my @me.com address, and that I should create a new one.
