ICloud Email stopped working on my MacBook running 10.7.5

My computer has worked fine since installing 10.7.5 but suddenly iCloud mail has stopped. I can neither send or receive from my MacBook, but my iPad and iPhone both have working iCloud email. I didn't change anything on the computer, but I see that the iCloud Mail Server box has "greyed out. Any suggestions please?

Make sure Mail is selected in System Preferences > iCloud
According to the iCloud status page > Apple - Support - System Status
The mail server is working.
You can click Contact Suport at the bottom of that window.

Icloud email stopped working with outlook 2010 after icloud 3.0 update.,

Hi all,
hope some one can help me out here...
I have had my icloud email set up successfully on my PC (Outlook) for many months, until the icloud 3.0 was released now it doesn't work. I have tried all the usual suspects, I have even gone to the trouble of uninstalling both MS office & icloud control panel then reinstalling them but to no avail. I have tried to manually configure the account in outlook but all I get is an error message "The server responded: 530 5.7.0 No AUTH command has been given"
please HELP?
my config is:
User Info     e-mail: @icloud.com - I have also tried @me.com
Server Info     IMAP
                    imap.mail.me.com     port 993 SSL
                    smtp.mail.me.com - also tried p06-smtp.mail.me.com port 587 TLS & SSL
Logon Info     User name - my primary @me.com - & i have also tried [email protected]
                    followed by my usual password, which i have not changed recently.
as you can see I have tried most of the usual combinations of problems & what others are experiencing but i still can not get it to work.
any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Check the port and SSL settings as mentioned in the thread. A little tweaking should get you up and running.
I only changed the smtp settings... left the incoming server settings the same as they were.
outgoing server = p06-smtp.mail.me.com
outgoing port = 587
SSL = yes
outgoing mail requires authentication = yes

ICloud email stopped working with Outlook

Unable to receive iCloud email in Outlook - was working perfectly for ages and suddenly just quit.
When iCloud email is on, Outlook disconnects so Comcast mail won't even work either. I get a continual pop-up asking for the password for the iCloud email address, even though the password is remembered. If I remove the me.com address and have iCloud Control Panel setup email again, outgoing server works but incoming server does not.
Calendar, Notes, and Contacts are all still working with Outlook and iCloud. All old mail stored in iCloud/iPhone/iPad is unable to be seen on computer now. Very frustrating and annoying since all my old email is in iCloud.
All iCloud is working fine with iPhone, iPad, and iCloud online. Just cannot get mail into my computer where I want to read it as I work all day and want to have a copy stored.
Have searched for an answer and been unable to find this addressed.

Mavericks multiple iCloud emails stopped working

The iCloud settings for my Apple Mail iCloud accounts have changed, not with any interaction from me.
Now only one of the four iCloud accounts I have attached to my Mail client is working.   I've had these accounts since the .Mac "Family Account" days and they're all active.
Also, an aside... my Contacts list was getting slow, and it didn't take long to find over 17,000 NULL contact entries in my Contact. Did something strange happen to iCloud last week?

Actually I have 5 iCloud accounts for this one user account.   All are configured under Mail, and have been working for years (if not decades ).   Most are migrants that've been moved through the .mac/.me/.icloud transitions since setting them up over time since the 1990's. Most of the 5 use the p02-imap server for incoming mail. One is on p25-imap.
What's changing at the moment is the "outgoing server (SMTP)" is being set to None for all the accounts. I can change them all back but two of the SMTP servers are showing Offline.
After resetting to the proper SMTP server account (there must be five, one for each iCloud account as the authorizations are different), two of the 5 email accounts under Mail are showing Offline SMTP servers.
Another change is I can no longer see all five in the "Edit SMTP Server List" dialog.   Only iCloud SMTP server appears in the pick list -- that would be the one that's correct for each account. This is how I can reset the SMTP server alignment.
It was truly a pain to add the last iCloud account to Mail after the Mavericks upgrade, so it is obvious something changed in iCloud Account Management with Mavericks. There's no way to rename the account from the front end, and I've not bothered to dig into the internals.
Data point: The two offline accounts both work on my iOS devices
Data point: The two offline accounts both work with Thunderbird email (and in Outlook email in one case).
Data point: I do have over a dozen other non-iCloud accounts working under Mail, so the SMTP list is similarly large.
The problem is most definitely within the Mavericks Mail client.

My iCloud Email stopped sending

About 2 weeks ago, my iCloud email stopped sending......
I use a PC and WWW.iCloud.Com.....   All my contacts are on the "cloud" not conneted to any other email account (AOL or GMAIL, etc).   Not connected to EXCHANGE or anything else, web ONLY........
The problem is on any computer including a MACBOOK at an Apple store, I can send mail without any problems from an I phone.   I've changed no settings at all.,
If I reply or create a message and hit SEND.... I get a box that pops up that says "Mail cannot be sent at this time"......
At the Apple Store one of the kids running around with an iPad (and enough TATS to be a full time biker) said without even thinkng "The servers go down, they are working on them now, they will be fixed shortly".   Enough knowledge of the company to make Mr. Jobs smile. Can't consider his answer seriously since he never looked or asked a question......
The Genious at the back of the store told me they only work on hardware and the web problems are beyond them....
I called Apple Support.... The first guy I talked to was pretty nice and really asked questions, etc. Couldn't solve it nor could he find a reference to the problem in the literature. He passed me off to his boss, another good one,   He did what he could and in the end he took a lot of info down to pass it onto the engineers who are supposed to get with me this week..... Tues Noon and still haven't heard from them........
So, do we have any suggestions? Someone else must have hadou this problem.   I'd trash the email account and start another but there are thousands of mails on it, its on my business cards, hooked up to everything on the web and it isn't that simple........
Thoughts? (Because you all may be next)

I have the same problem and it started about 2-3 weeks ago. I use a windows OS pc at work and it stopped working. I have a Windows OS laptop that I use at home. Both of these quit allowing me to send any type of new email or reply to any email sent to my me.com mail account. My iPhone still works great.....
Would Apple have made their iCloud proprietary to Mac OS systems?? Any help would be appreciated.

HT4864 Thank you! This may sound lame but are these instructions for the blackberry? I'm receiving iCloud emails without problems on my MacBook Pro and I'd rather not mess w/ settings there.

Thank you! This may sound lame but are these instructions for my blackberry? I'm receiving iCloud emails without problems on my MacBook Pro and I'd rather not mess w/ settings there. Thanks again!

You don't need to start a new thread to continue a conversation, you can just tack onto the original one. The settings I referred you to are for the Blackberry, since that's the device which is not receiving mail: anything which is working can be left alone.

Hi Rachel,
Have you tried reinstalling Microsoft Word? Have you tried reinstalling Office? Have you run any updates recently for Microsoft Office? There was one that came out this week. You may wish to ask this question over at the Microsoft Word forums, there's a good chance you'll get a better answer as well. This forum is primarily designed for the MacBook Air hardware and interoperability with OS X on a MacBook Air.

My external hard drive (Seagate backup plus) has stopped working on my macbook 10.8.5

I've been using Seagate Backup Plus for a year now and suddenly it has stopped working on my Macbook Pro (mountain lion 10.8.5). When I plug it in, it lights up and I can hear it running, but it won't show on my macbook. I've checked on Disk Utility but it won't recognise the hard drive. I also tried going on Terminal to see if my hard drive is listed by putting "diskutil list", and it's not. I also make sure that external hard drives are visible on Finder. Since my hard drive is on NTFS format, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the NTFS drive, and still it won't work.
My hard drive is working perfectly on other devices and PCs so I'm sure the problem is on my macbook. Usb ports of my macbook are also working perfectly.
Please help. Thanks.

Open Disk Utility (Applications>Utilities folder) and format the disk as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition. Your Mac should see the drive and you should be able to use if for backups, storage, etc.

Email stopped working--can't send or receive

My email stopped working yesterday. I had tried to send a large file --ppt.-- and it sat in the outbox and wouldn't transmit, so I deleted it. Since then I can't send or receive email. My wireless system is OK; I'm on Firefox now. How can I fix email? My O.S. is Leopard 10.6.7, laptop is MacBook Pro.

My email stopped working. When I upgraded to IOS6 on a 4s. Well, nothing changed but the os, and I finally figured out that when you put in your user name, you have to put in the @yourprovider.com
When they wrote the code they forgot to add the little piece of code that would translate and transmit your user name with the @provider.com.
Once I changed it to [email protected] it immediatley started working

HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3

HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3. When I purchased the monitor a few weeks ago it worked perfectly when computer was in clamshell mode or with lid open. Now external display has stopped working. When I turn on display it scans for signal but does not find it and then immediately goes into sleep mode. I am using a DVI connection with the adapter for the mini display plug. REALLY FRUSTRATING. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Hi lancekatigbak,
If you're having issues with the display out on your MacBook Pro, you may want to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the following article:

Icloud is not working on my macbook pro

icloud is not working on my macbook pro and works on both my ipad and my iphone. Not sure why this is, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Yes it has been turned on in system preferences. I've even signed out & signed back in to trouble shoot & the problem still exists. The problem is — while browsing in Safari, I'll hit the iCloud tab on my MacBook Pro & it will be blank, showing nothing opened on the other devices. Then I'll check the other device sitting next to me & they have web pages opened & their iCloud works. Not sure what is wrong, prob need to call Apple...

Constant Error; Adobe Flash Player 11.4 r402 has stopped working. But NOT running Trusteer Rapport.

I am experiancing this unbelieveably annoying and constant Flash error; Adobe Flash Player 11.4 r402 has stopped working.
But NOT running Trusteer Rapport, I never have, and it's not even installed on my computer. So what's causing this?

There were a couple AntiVirus/AntiMalware products that keep coming up, but I haven't validated that in the lab and don't want to call anyone out publicly without reporting the issue to them first.  If you could tell me what antivirus/antimalware products and versions you have installed, that would be helpful.
So, third party stuff aside, I'd like to know more about the crashes your seeing:
1.) Please provide links to the Firefox crash reports. If you have multiples, the first few would be great.
     In Firefox, type about:crashes in the address bar
     If the link starts with "bp...", it's already been submitted -- just right-click on it and copy the link, and paste it into the reply here.
     If not, click it to submit it, and copy the subsequent link.
2.) In firefox, type about:support
     Just copy and paste the output into the reply.
3.) In Firefox, type about:plugins
     Please copy and paste the output into the reply
4.) Please provide the output of the DirectX Diagnostic Utility
     Click Start > type "dxdiag" [enter]
     Click Save All Information
     Copy the output of the file into the reply, or use Adobe SendNow/DropBox/PasteBin to share the file.
5.) If you can provide an exact URL and step-by-step instructions on repeating the crash (if it's consistent), that would be really helpful. My goal is to build out a configuration that matches yours as closely as possible, reproduce the problem and then debug it.
If you're not comfortable sharing that diagnostic information publicly, send me a private message. Just click my name and use the options on the right.
Thanks!

Sorry to hear of the issues you are experiencing, StephenjCrane. We definitely want to make sure your work email is working. When you try to access your email, are you receiving an error message? Are you using the default email client, or a third party application? Do you know if other coworkers are also experiencing the same issue?
Just in case, please try a wipe cache partition as this can help stop a number of issues.

TS3276 Icloud mail stops working 3 minutes after I sign in

Icloud mail stops working every time I sign in, for some reason it just freezes wherever I am working. No idea

When I try to log onto a new site the blue line in the text box freezes and the connection does not take place. This happens about 5 minutes after logging on.
There are many possible reasons for that.
Most likely a corrupted cookie or cache file for that site may be responsible.
On the Safari menu bar got to Safari -> Empty Cache
Then go to Safari -> Preferences and click on the 3rd symbol from right.
Click on Details -> type the name of the particular site (e.g. facebook) in the search field and delete all upcoming entry's.
Restart Safari and try again to log in on the site.
