ICloud mail settings for my mac

How come my iCloud account is not working in Mail on my MacBookPro? I gather MobileMe mail accounts are no longer valid (a bit of warning would have been nice as I now can't email everyone from that address to warn them my address would be changing.) When I go into preferences in Mail there is no incoming mail server entered and I don't know what to put in that space. My Mail account is now only accepting mail to my primary mail account set up on Mail and none from my iCloud or MobileMe account. Very frustrating. Not sure I'm liking all the iCloud changes.
Do I now just delete the old MobileMe account from my list of accounts and only have the primary one and iCloud one? And if I do delete it, will all the emails to that address disappear too? I'm assuming they won't but just in case, thought I'd better check.
Help anyone?
Cheers,
Cathie

Then if your signature had reflected that I wouldn't have wasted my time posting information on what to do in Snow Leopard. Please keep your signature up to date.
If you have migrated at http://me.com/move your MobileMe email has been migrated to iCloud and should worrk perfectly well. Check at http://icloud.com and navigate to the Mail page to see whether your email is there.
Then signing in in System Preferences>iCloud and checking Mail and any other data types you want to access should get it working. If it hasn't, start by signing out and starting over. Make sure you are signing in with your ex-MobileMe @me.com address, not your login for iTunes if this is different.

I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto. My iCloud email works ok otherwise. I have check all mail settings for ID and password.

In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it - sometimes that resolves this
Or IMHO the best long term solution is to set Apple Mail as the iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it - it has a number of advatages and has fewer problems

My ICloud isn't talking to both my MacBookPro and IPhone. What are the settings for the Mac

My ICloud isn't talking to both my MacBookPro and IPhone. What are the settings for the Mac and any suggestions?

In the AirPort Utility, I selected the Advanced tab, and then selected Port Mapping.
Q: What service do I choose from the drop-down menu? Also, where do I enter the two ports you mentioned? Public UDP Port(s)? Public TCP Port(s)? Private IP Address: Private UDPPort Private TCP Port?
still confused, I guess. Thanks!

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

How can I migrate my junk-mail settings from one Mac to another?

I would like to move my junk mail settings from one Mac to another. I found this article (https://kb.siteground.com/how_to_synchronize_the_junk_email_settings_in_mac_mail /), but can't locate the file indicated in the article, so I suspect that the article is out of date (though it's not dated).
Both machines - MacOS 10.9.5; Mail 7.3.
Any insights much appreciated!
Best,
Doug

Make your user library visible and see if you can find it.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library.

The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly

I have a 2 server SharePoint farm.
All outgoing emails were working fine.
I just restarted both servers and now after that none of the emails are being sent. I am using OOB publishing workflow and it shows message:
The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
Even if I setup Alert on some list, it doesn't send email.
I have checked that outgoing email setting in CA is defined and like I said it was working fine without problems but after restart it is showing error.
What could be the cause of this and how to fix it?
EDIT
I removed outgoing mail server in CA, added again and restart IIS but still emails from OOB workflow is not being sent. But email from Alerts are being sent. Don't know what to do now.

This is really weird, It works when an alert is set but workflows doesn't send emails... Can you create a simple 1 Step workflow in SPD to send an email when a specific field is set. See if this sends an email..
AJ MCTS: SP 2010 Configuration MCSA: Windows 7 If you find this post useful kindly please mark it as an answer :) TY
I created a test workflow which sends email to user and it is also not sending email. But I am getting email from SharePoint regarding "variation" page changes as well as alerts which I told above.

The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.

Hi,
I have SP 2013, and it was working properly. and workflows send emails perfectly. yesterday, i decided to build a fresh site collection so i deleted the old one and created a new one. now, workflows are unable to send emails. i'm sure it has nothing to do
with my mail server cuz no changes happened to it. i'm sure about the settings for outgoing mail on central admin. all i did, was to enter mail server IP in outgoing mail field and email below it.
in the workflow status the status says "error" followed by this message: "The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly."
Any help please?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to send email after building a fresh site collection.
I recommend to verify that you have entered your SMTP server name correctly.
You can add it as FQDN e.g. ServerName.DomainName.

My iphone icloud mail settings

I cannot access iphone icloud mail account as error message tells me my password is incorrect however iphone icloud mail settings are correct and I can access icloud mail on my desktop by logging in to icloud.com using my Apple ID. Any way out of this?

Ok I think I sorted this by rebooting the iPhone holding down home key and power off button.

I dont't receive my iCloud mail anymore on my Mac.

Since last Friday I dont't receive my iCloud mail anymore on my Mac. The iPad still works fine. I can't think of any reason why my Mac doesn't receive the e-mail anymore. Other accounts are still working.
Sincerely,
Riks

Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when you try to open Mail.

Be sure you have the proper servers: iCloud- Mail server information

Mail settings for iCloud, etc

I'm using 10.6.8.
I see two kbases for setting up Apple Mail to work with iCloud email.
But, one says it's specifically for 10.6. The other is for other email apps, using IMAP setup.
But, wouldn't the IMAP settings in the second work for 10.6 as well?
10.6
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5330
other apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
I gues I'm trying to figure out why they are different since iCloud is an IMAP account, but both articles have different settings for that

it would seem one of those kbases made sure to mention option-click in the process to allow edits in the IMAP setup.
So, in the 10.6 info:
mail.me.com
user name (excluding @me.com)
smtp.me.com
But, in the iCloud server setting for email clients:
imap.mail.me.com
user name=[email protected]
smtp.mail.me.com
It seems user name under each is different in that one wants @iCloud.com and the other doesn't.
Also, "imap" is added to the icoming and outgoing info.
I set my SL up using the "icloud: mail server settings" instead of the one for 10.6.
But, I was trying to figure WHY there are two different ways and why specifically 10.6 differs.

Correct mail settings for iCloud with Mail

I find this: to talke about setting up iCloud Manualy.
iCloud: Mail server settings for email clients
And then this for 10.6.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5330
But shouldn't either work for 10.6?

Yes, they should work. For the outgoing SMTP, you might try using Apple Token instead of your password.
You can share Mail, Calendars, and Contacts running Snow Leopard. Based on my experience, I don't recommend syncing Contacts - created a lot of problems with duplicates.
