ICloud not listed in Edit smpt in Mail preferences

Hi all-I have been having issues with Mail lately. I am running Mavericks (latest version) and Mail is 7.3.
First it keeps asking me for my password. I have lost count the number of times I have reentered it! But it keeps on asking. I enter the password in the popup window that says the iCloud password is incorrect. Sometimes it accepts it and the mail downloads but other times it doesn't.
The other issue is that in Mail Preferences if I go to Edit smpt settings iCloud is not listed. Comcast is but not iCloud. It's listed on the first screen of Mail Preferences.
The other question I have is the Incoming Mail Server-it says (in faint letters, not highlighted) p01-imap.mail.me.com. Is this what it should say? Out going is iCloud (iCloud). No TLS Certificate. Under the Advanced tab it says authentication if Password. Again, iCloud is not listed on this screen.
I wasn't aware that I changed anything. I did do the 2 step verification for iCloud today but the password issue has been going on for over a week. Looking forward to getting this mess straightened out! Judy

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access 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 Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Is there a way to have iCloud NOT sync rules in Mountain Lion Mail?

    My wife and I each have our own MacBook Pro on Mountain Lion and we share an iPad on iOS 6. We use OS X Mail as our mail client for our accounts on our ISP mail service.  We have iCloud enabled on all three devices but we have Mail disabled on all three.
    Every time either of us makes a change to a Mail rule on our MacBook, it is pushed to the other MacBook.  But we need different rules since we have multiple mail accounts and have different interests in each of them.  I finally noticed by clicking the little ? icon in the rules window that the rules are synced if you have Documents and Data selected in iCloud NOT Mail.  We also use iWork on all three devices so we want Documents and Data enabled for sharing documents between the devices.
    So is there a way to keep from screwing up each other's Mail rules without losing access to our iWork documents???  The only thing we have come up with is prefacing every rule name with our initials so for example my rule can file a message and hers can move it to Trash. But this is also a pain since you cannot sort the rules by name in the rules window.

  • I had a MobileMe account and when Apple switched to iCloud I now have two mail accounts: @mac and @me. Additionally my folders in iCloud not longer show up in my Mail program. How do I return to one account and see my folders on my mac?

    I had a MobileMe account and when Apple switched to iCloud I now have two mail accounts: @mac and @me. Additionally my folders in iCloud no longer show up in my Mail program on my iMac. How do I return to one account and see my iCloud folders on my mac?

    I went to Notes.  Showed all notes.  Three notes are duplicated, one on iCloud and one on Icloud.  I deleted one of the notes and checked to see if the other still existed.  It did.  I deleted the other two notes.  I check all notes and found that the three notes were deleted on both accounts.  The only notes on this device are under On My iPad.
    I went into system settings and tried to delete the Icloud account.  The warning comes up:  This will delete all IMAP notes on your device.  Will this also delete the notes in On My iPad?

  • Why is icloud not listed in my updated macbook pro's systems preferences, there is mobileme instead?

    I use a Samsung Android, two mac book pros, a large desktop mac, a Kindle Fire, and recently  bought a preowned iphone 5; want to synch it with my mac book pro. I have an icloud email but nothing from my macbook is connected with it except maybe itunes. icloud is not the way I sign on when pening my personal macbook. But the only id I could use to get into the iphone was my icloud id. I want to get "Everything" together but when attempting to set up icloud in my personal macbk at system pref.s there is no icloud listed only the ancient "Mobilme" . I have done all the updates, why is icloud not in there and what can I do to set it up?

    If you are seeing mobile me, then you are running 10.6.8 or earlier.  iCloud came out in 10.7.  So your device "may" be updated as far as it can, but it is not far enough to use iCloud.  You can try to upgrade to 10.10 (which is free), or if your system is not capable, you may have to pay for lion or mountain lion.
    HTH.

  • Thunderbird V3 Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | account name | Server Settings not listed in edit menu?

    Thunderbird v 3 help info is different than what actually is shown in the edit option list. Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | <account name> | Server Settings
    Looking for ISP setting that instructs ISP(rr) to keep emails on serer until erased by user. This setting was in earlier versions of Thunderbird. This settings is used to download email to other user computers. When user's computer breaks down user has to reload email onto new setup.
    Scenario is to go to Thunderbird V 3 Edit --> Account Settings and discover this option no longer exists. See earlier version where you can go to Account Settings and select email to be left on server for optional number of days or until erased by user.
    Thanks for help,
    Bob

    This is my problem too. I don't usually need to edit settings but yahoo or gmail have had temporary problems with their smtp servers, when they do I can simply go to account settings and change from one to the other. Now when I open the account settings window and left or right click on ANY account or setting for an account in the left tree I get the error window with this message:
    "The Local Directory path "C:\Users\Len\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dlcdrtl6.default\Mail\Local Folders" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory."
    Clicking OK in the window brings up another message window with the same message as above:
    "An account with this name already exists. Please enter a different account name."
    I cannot exit the account settings box by clicking OK. I need to click cancel. This effectively makes it impossible to change any account settings. This worked a few months ago as I switched smtp servers when gmail had problems, now I'm screwed if I need to.
    This is a problem with one of the new versions it should be marked critical as account settings need be configurable and I don't see any workaround like there is for pasting links.

  • Emails imported from Entourage2004 with attachments are not listed as having attachments in Mail.app

    The attachment is still there.  But the attachment column is blank when viewing the list of e-mails.  Is there anything I can do to get Mail to display the attachment icon in the listing?
    I originally imported the Entourage 2004 emails by grabbing each Entourage folder, dragging it to a folder on my old PowerBook G4, dragging that folder to my external drive, and having Mail import the mailboxes from the external drive to Mail 6.3 ( OSX 10.8.3) on my new Mac Mini.  any ideas?  Thank you.

    Hello Ramki
    DECISION_NOTE is a new element created in the standard decision task as of new releases (Note 1643764)
    Once the user fills in the comments, they are saved as SOFM Objectsin DECISION_NOTE (this too is multiline element). All we have to do is bind it back to the workflow container in _ATTACH_OBJECTS.
    Hi Ronen
    Thanks for the suggestion.....I was thinking on the same lines too....if at all we have to change the approach, I need to keep it least disruptive .
    Hi Rick
    Will test the FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 ...let me check if I can redefine SENDTASKDESCRIPTION in a delegated subtype of SELFITEM and use this API ....(if at all I can)....
    For the wait step part.... the attachment is added to the mail step via the binding from the workflow...._ATTACH_OBJECTS from Workflow to _ATTACH_OBJECTS of the email task...not sure where you want me to set a wait step. Request you to please elaborate a bit more.
    Thank you all for your kind inputs!
    Will be back with my today's trials...

  • How to ip sent by mail preference from ipconfig

    Hello,
    I've tried to send me my ip by mail if it changes. But realised it send me local ip address.
    I used this command: ifconfig|grep inet|grep -v 127.0.0.1|grep -v inet6|cut -f2 -d" "|mail 'myemailaddresshere'
    How could i remove this one? I don't have skills in terminal commands so deep.
    Thank you all in advance!

    There are two issues when I do so. First of all I have "ghost" accounts who do not show up in my e-mail preferences but keep on showing up randomly. Secondly I cannot remove "other accounts" in Mail>Preferences I will get the following error message: The account "XXXX.XXXX.Com"  is shared using iCloud. You can remove this account from iCloud in Internet Accounts.
    And in iCloud internet accounts the particular account will not be visible.

  • Mail preferences cause lockup

    I have a new Mac Pro (2 x 2.4 GHz Quad Xeon) with 24GB RAM and a 512 SSD, and have been having problems ever since getting it.
    Current Problem:
    If I try to view Preferences in Mail.app, I get the beachball of death. Force quit is the only solution at that point. The mail functions work fine, but I cannot change any settings, add or update any accounts, modify rules or any of it.
    I've done the permissions repair, disk repair, PRAM reset, and LIbrary stuff of removing preferences and mail folders. This has not solved the inability to access mail preferences, though.
    Background:
    This is the second SSD after having hte first one replaced. Why? Because of cascading app crashes, and Lion would not reinstall. The Genius Bar restored my account on the new disk using a Time Machine backup from another disk on the machine. All seemed good for a while.
    A second visit to the Genius Bar was to try to fix more crashes. Now there were secret permissions problems (that seem to override the normal chmod permissions on files and folders) preventing apps from starting up properly. It stumped him, and he was looking up arcane system-level commands to try to clean these issues up. The Genius spend 2 hours creating new users, migrating apps over, etc. I left with things seemingly fixed.
    Also I have the same problem with Safari preferences when trying to set default browser. That gives me the beachball of death, too and the only solutio is to force-quit Safari.
    Perhaps related: iCal randomly crashes. No spinner, just suddenly it's gone and a crash report is in its place.
    Question:
    Is there any way I can totally reset Mail.app to at least test if there's a permissions problem causing this? Or must I resort to wiping the SSD and reinstalling Lion from a DVD?

    First, restore your Mail data. That's apparently not where the problem lies.
    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    Boot in safe mode and log in as yourself. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all, possibly including wireless networking.
    Launch Mail, and test again. Same problem now?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

  • What do I do when Mail preferences will not open for me to edit server list

    When my wife tries to send mail a message says server listed doesn't work and asks if I want to edit the server list. When we attempt to do this from the message or from the tool bar, Preferences does not open. BTW It is not grayed out. WHen I log in on the same computer, I can open preferences.

    You don't say who your mail server is and what preferences are you trying to access? Just a thought, though, try going to Mail preferences, Accounts and Account Information. Is the "use only this server" box checked? Different mail servers require different settings. Gmail, for instance, requires that box to be unchecked. Good Luck

  • What do I do when my iCloud account is not the same as my Apple ID? And I do not have access to the e-mail address that the iCloud account is set-up under.

    How do I get access to the iCloud account to remove/change it on my phone to match my Apple ID?

    End game: Just want to have an iCloud account I can use on my iPhone.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).
