IPhone and Outlook Email

I have my optonline account set up on my iPhone, Ipad, and Microsoft Outlook and it's a POP account. Is there any way to get the email I read and delete on my Apple devices to be deleted from my Outlook account, or at the very list on the two Apple devices?

Not with a POP account. The POP3 protocol dates from days when no one imagined that anyone would ever have more than one device that could access their email account. I'm pretty sure that Optimum does not offer IMAP accounts (which is what you need), but you can get a gmail account and have it proxy your optonline account. Gmail supports both IMAP and Exchange protocols. the advantage of Exchange is that you get your email in near real time. You can set up gmail to read your optonline account and forward the messages to you, and to make replies look like they came from optonline.

  • IPhone and outlook email conversations quickly grows to 2+MB emails

    Anyone notice that if you have a email conversation on an iPhone linked to exchange with someone on outlook, the emails grown very large after about the third email reply from the iPhone??
    So far it seems like it's just between outlook and the phone, doesn't seem to happen if Entourage is the email client.
    (hope that makes sense)

    Hi gdgmacguy, thats so much for your reply. Currently this is only happening with one email address, not all. I also asked our exchange admin and he didn't have any ideas... any clues as to what to have him look for?

  • Emails on iPhone and Outlook

    I have a virgin email account and have set up my iphone to receive these emails. However I'm having problems getting these emails to go to both my iPhone and Outlook on my computer. Sometimes it works fine and I'll find the same email on both devices, however sometimes it will only make it to my iPhone and sometimes only to Outlook. The email is never deleted off the server whichever (or both) device it ends up on.
    My settings are:
    Host Name: mail.virgin.net
    SMTP: smtp.virgin.net
    SSL: On
    Server Port: 25
    Advanced
    SSL: On
    Delete From Server: Never
    Server Port: 995
    Does anyone know how I can ensure that my emails make it to Outlook even when they also make it to my iPhone?
    Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

  • Problems with synching calendars between iPhone and Outlook 2007 on Windows

    I recently purchased a copy of windows 7 ultimate 64. It was an English version, but since it is ultimate I downloaded and changed it to Danish - so far so good...
    I have synch'ed between outlook and iPhone on a Vista platform without problems, but now on windows 7 when I sync - the result is, that on my iPhone the meetings, work schedules and birthdays I have in my calendar is shown a day too soon!!
    I have checked that both iPhone and Outlook start the week on Mondays, so that is not an issue - I have updated my iPhone to the newest software with out any luck - so now I try and write here instead - hopefully someone can help me...
    thanks in advance

    yes they were set to the same timezone - which puzzled me a lot...
    I lost a lot of sleep, but I can now say that I have solved the problem...
    What I did was, that I un-installed microsoft office (desperate I know!) - then ran a sync with the iPhone choosing to overwrite the Calendar in the phone - as there was no calendar present - it deleted what was on the phone. Then I re-installed Microsoft office, by doing that, I didn't loose anything because the user files was still present including mail setting etc. - resynced the iPhone - and now it works...
    Just can't figure out what went wrong in the first place...
    thank you for your answer

  • Calendar times do not match between iphone and outlook

    I have an iPhone 4S, at work I use a PC and Outlook.  I have both my PC and my iPhone on the same time zone.  If I set an appointment in either calendar the time gets switched in the other.  For example:  I set an appointment in my iphone calendar for 11am.  One my outlook calendar it shows the same appointment at 10am.  Both systems are set to the same time zone, what gives?  How do I fix this?
    Another thing I should add is I am in Saskatchewan Canada.  We do not switch time for daylight savings in March an November. So when the time switched in November everthing works great, it is only between March and November whe this problem arrises.  Saskatchewan is a setting in timezones for bothe the iphone and outlook so I don't think this should matter.  Unless one of the companies does not know Saskatchewan does not change times.
    Any suggestions?

    Apple puts Saskatchewan into Central Standard Time, which isn't correct.  Then when it syncs to Outlook, Outlook puts the appointment into the CST time zone, instead of the Saskatchewan -6 time zone.  The problem is Apple's iCloud sending the wrong information to Outlook.
    Need a fix for this please.

  • Synchronizing my contacts between iPhone and Outlook

    I currently synchronize my calendars between my iPhone and Outlook via the USB connection between my computer and the phone. I tried to do the calendar synchronization through the iCloud, as that looked really slick, but I didn't like some of the side effects, so I went back to synchronizing directly between my computer and my phone. It seems like to synchronize the contacts, the only option is to use iCloud, but I don't know if I can do that only for the contacts and not have my calendar involved? Any suggestions on how I do this?

    Setting up my mail accounts on iphone3 and when mail is being received on my iphone it does not appear in my outlook aswell and vice versa, how do I receive same mail on both iphone and outlook?

    Set it up as IMAP or configure it so that, while using POP, it retains a copy of the message on the server so that it can be downloaded again on multiple clients.

  • After syncing, lost almost all contacts (except 12) on iPhone and Outlook

    I did a sync on Thursday and I lost almost all contacts (except 12 contacts) on both iPhone and Outlook. Only 6 of remaining 12 contacts were new entries since last syncing. So, some old contacts stays and most of got ereased. I tried to search for possible solutions with no luck. I got my iPhone in Asia to be able to have Chinese character input. I am traveling now and it looks like I dont' have a backup file of my outlook.
    Is there a way to retrive the contact data from the iPhone Hard Drive?
    Need help ASAP.

    Not sure what happened here, but I'm not aware of an iTunes prompt to sync an iPhone that is connected. Each iPhone includes a preference setting to automatically sync with iTunes when connected - which I recommend turning off. This is selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences. iTunes includes a preference setting to not automatically sync and iPod or iPhone when connected. This is a personal choice, but I prefer manually syncing, or syncing when I want to in case I want to make any changes before my iPhone is synced.
    I assume your Father does not maintain a backup of his Address Book data on his Mac, or any other important data? The Address Book application includes a simple and quick backup Address Book option which is important to use when syncing any device, but is important regardless in case a problem arises with the Address Book database.
    On your Father's Mac, with the Address Book application quit, go to Home > Library > Application Support > AddressBook.
    Within the Address Book folder, move the AddressBook.data file to the Desktop.
    Change the name of the AddressBook.data.previous to AddressBook.data or remove the .previous extension from the file name so it is AddressBook.data only.
    Cross your fingers and launch the Address Book application. If the Address Book data is not restored, and your Father does not have a backup of his Address Book data, the data is lost.

  • HT1692 Help--I need my iphone and Outlook Calendars to talk to each other.

    After the last iOS update, my iphone and Outlook calendars are not communicating:
    My iphone calendar sends to the gmail account associated with MS Outlook, but not to icloud--it does receive from iCloud.
    Outlook does not to go to iCloud, or for that matter, to the gmail account that Outlook is associated with--nor does Outlook receive events from iCloud.
    So, iCloud doesn't get stuff from iphone calendar, and after an aborted try at self-fixing, is no longer connected with Outlook at all.
    I've tried to work through iSolutions, etc., but can't seem to follow, or match my circumstances, to what is provided. Can someone give me simple, step by step instructions on where my settings should be at all 3 points? I would be very grateful!

  • Sync my iCal in between iPhone and Outlook 2010 on Win7

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone4 running iOS5.1.1 (as of today) and an iCloud account.
    My iPhone calendar (iCal) is synched with iCloud calendar.
    My business PC is running Win7 and Outlook 2010.
    My compagny has selected Google Enterprise to provide all the mail services.
    As such, I have a Google deamon running on my PC to sync my emails in between Google GMail Enterprise and Outlook 2010.
    Please notice, that, due to security rules, I can not symply enter my Gmail Google Enterprise IDs on my iPhone to get it synched with GMail...
    As such, to get at least my professional calendar on my iPhone iCal, I was using a cable connexion in between the PC USB port and the iPhone, and running iTunes sync.
    I though it was paintfull, and I though iCloud was able to do so.
    As such, I installed iCloud Dashboard and my PC and started to configure it to sync my Outlook 2010 calendar (at least) with iCloud.
    I successfully entered my iCloud AppleID, and arrived on the configuration of the sync.
    Despite all the tests I run (connected from the office or from home), I not able to get it working as I am always getting an error message from iCloud dashboard:
    "Your configuration can not start as an unexpected event"
    Any clue on what's going on?
    Any idea on what I can test more?
    Best Regards
    Arno
