IPhone Mail + iCloud

I wasn't aware I was using iCloud; when I got an e-mail today that I was over my iCloud storage limit, I tried to see what I was storing. I don't think I consciously chose to use iCloud. On my iMac, it looks like I never set up iCloud. On my iPhone, I'm using 25 GB and the only things I have turned on in iCloud are Mail and Find My iPhone. I turned off iCloud mail and all my mail disappeared from my phone; is iCloud the only way to have me.com Mail on my iPhone? I was going to turn off Find My iPhone, but want to know first is iCloud the only way to use this feature?

I checked and only had Mail, Photo Stream, and Find my iPhone turned on and then turned off Photo Stream. I have the usual 49 messages in my Inbox and less than 50 e-mails in Sent, nothing else. A lot more e-mails on my iMac but not over 1500.
I checked my iPad and had more things on in iCloud. I turned them all off except Mail and Find my iPod.
Oh, gosh! I'm so sorry--I just realized I've used 30 *MB* of my 25 GB limit. At least I learned I have to keep iCloud on to use Mail and Find My iPhone.
And I'm not backing up my phone to iCloud.

Snow Leopard Mail not sync with iPhone Mail (iCloud)?

Hello all,
Just like to query and confirm:
This is my sister's Mac Mini running Snow Leopard, and her iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1 on iCloud, she has activated iCloud on her iPhone, using the same Apple ID
She has told me her desktop Mac mini's mail doesn't seem to sync with the mail on her iPhone, but it was, about 3 weeks ago
I know both are different, her Snow Leopard would be running MobileMe and her iPhone would be running iCloud, even though both are using the same Apple ID.
Is the Mail part regardless of whether on MobileMe or iCloud, they would sync, or will not?
I guess the only thing to do now is to update her Mac mini to Lion as soon as possible.
Thanks and cheers.

Yes, you need to upgrade to Lion in order to use iCloud. MobileMe and iCloud are separate email services.

I just bought an iPhone 5. My iPhone 4 has all my music on it, mail, mms, sms, notes, videos, photos and apps. How do I transfer the music etc to my new iPhone using icloud?

I just bought an iPhone5
To ensure my old iPhon4 was backed up i...
1. Deleted the iPhone4 backup from iTunes prefs(devices)
2. I then sycnched the iPhone4 to get a new backup of the old Phone.
I then installed my new iPhone5 from the fresh backup of the old iPhone4
This way i got my new iPhone5 exactly as my old iPhone4
Screens all looked the same, EVERYTHING the same.
Some minor adjustments were needed afterwards.
Hope this helps.

You are emailing her or texting her?
Can anyone help me
Would you explain what you need help with?
also my contacts dont support but calendar works
What does "Contacts don't support" mean?
What specifically are you having a problem with.
Which computer OS are you using?

TS4002 After the icloud update I have not been able to access any of the newly formatted icons including mail, is anyone else experiencing this. I report to apple through the tab but nothing changes. My iPhone mail is unaffected.

Happy to report that iTunes Match has returned to working like normal on iTunes 10.7 on my computer today. If any iTunes engineers read this thread, I really appreciate the fix.
Has it returned to normal for you?

IPhone Mail App cannot connect with gmail iMap server

So my gmail address list or contacts seems to have been hacked and all my contacts who are still talking to me have told me so.
So I changed my gmail password.
No more complaints, and probably no more friends as contacts.
But seriously, I have been able to get gmail (web) working with my new double authentication password(s). Also, my outlook for MAC is working using the special "generated App Password". (because Outlook cannot do the double authentication thingie)
Ditto for the gmail app from google on my iPhone. (it works too)
BUT
I cannot get the iPhone Mail App to connect to Gmail.
I have deleted (i thought) my existing gmail setup from my iPhone. When I try to re establish the gmail settings, using either the password generated by the MAC / iCloud keychain generator or the App password, I get the message "My Name" is already added.
It looks to me that there is something in the iPhone that matches my gmail address, even though I deleted the account.
Any suggestions before I call Apple for help?
Thanks
Barry

I think so.
Actually I think I need to get the App Password for Mail on my phone. It generates the app password and I enter it into the password in the gmail setup for mail.
The problem is that when I hit next on that page, I get the message:
"my name" is already added" and I cannot proceed.
Before doing this setup I deleted my gmail account by tapping the email address and hitting delete in the Mail, Contact and Calendars setup..
but, there is something hiding in my iPhone that remembers my old gmail password (I guess) and doesn't let me proceed.
If I enter my gmail iChain password I get the same thing.
If i do this in airplane mode (no connection to google) i also get the same.
I talked to an apple care person who had me reset all my settings... still the same thing.
I am trying to avoid a gull reset of the iPhone, but that may be in the cards.
Going to go to the apple store and ask there, but i am not hopeful.

Installing Maverick on my Mac lost almost all of the calendar entries. They are still on my iPhone and new entries move freely to both devices via iCloud. How do I get the entries from my iPhone to iCloud without losing them from iPhone?

Like many others after I installed Maverick I found that all the calendar history has been lost and most of the forward info has also been lost. Also in order to get calendar, contacts and notes to sync with the iPhone I have had to move to iCloud. Contacts and notes sync fine. new calendar entries sync ok. My iPhone has all the calendar entries that were on the Mac before I installed Maverick. So far iCloud has not overwritten them nor have they synced onto iCloud.
How can I get all the entries from my iPhone onto iCloud, without losing the only copy of my calendar from my iPhone?
Thanks Apple for deciding to take over my privacy. I do not want this data stored on a US based server. Fortunately Mail still syncs via my own email provider. I guess Apple will find a way to stop that soon too!

Greetings Nefertiti72,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
iCloud: Import a vCard
You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
Select a vCard to import.
The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Best,

ICal synch between MacBook and iPhone using iCloud

when I create an event in iCal it synchs to my iPhone via iCloud but, when I create an event in iCal using integration with Mail, the event does not show up on iPhone.

At present you have to upload iWork documents manually to iCloud. It's possible that this may be addressed in a future upgrade either (or both) to iWork and the operating system, though there has been no announcement on this.
Once uploaded from a Mac, you cannot download again until the document has been edited on an iOS device. If you want to keep documents or two Macs in sync you would be better off with Dropbox or SugarSync.

I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

TS4003 everything else works on my iPhone in iCloud but when I try to connect to iCloud on safari I get the page ICloud set up iCloud on this device etc. What's up?

You cannot connect to iCloud.com from an iOS device, you can only connect from a computer. You can access any of the data in your iCloud account from the appropriate apps on your device (mail, contacts, calendars etc)

Iphone mail (ios6) replies from default account instead of alias recipient

Hi.
Since upgrading to ios6, iphone mail replies from my default account instead of the alias address that the email was originally sent to.
Prior to this upgrade, iphone mail would reply to the address that the email was sent to.
All alias addresses are present, and i can change teh sent from address to the alias manually.
If i reply to the same email from icloud.com, the email is sent from the alias address it was sent to, not the default account.
I tried turning mail off and back on, but the problem remains.
Please let me know if there is a new setting i have to look for, or if anyone else has solved this problem.
Thanks.

I have a similar problem, and was about to start a discussion on it when I saw your post. I'm assuming that you're using iCloud, like me.
Things changed in iOS 6 regarding Mail settings, but I still think the behaviour you and I are seeing should be considered a bug. Under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud > Account > Mail, you should see that there's a new setting that allows you to:
Choose a default address to use when sending from your iCloud account.
To confirm that you and I are experiencing the same problem, can I ask you to confirm that the default address chosen here is the default address that is being erroneously used as the "From:" address when replying to emails sent to aliases? If it is, you should probably make doubly sure that this setting is the cause of the behaviour you're seeing by changing it to one of the aliases you've created, and seeing whether this becomes the "From:" address for new replies.
Please post back with the results of this, and we can go from there. If you're seeing this behaviour too I think I'll report it as a bug to Apple.

Utilisation frauduleuse de mon adresse mail iCloud

Bonjour,
Par vagues (la première il y a quelques mois, la deuxième actullement depuis plusieurs jours), je reçois sur mon adresse mail iCloud des notifications de non-distribution de mails, mails que je n'ai jamais envoyé moi-même car je ne connais pas les destinataires.
Quelqu'un sait-il comment résoudre ce problème ?
Y a-t-il un risque ?

Translation of the above message:
En In waves (first was a few months ago, second since a few days ago), I receive on my iCloud mail address some non-delivery notices, from mails I didn't send myself, since I don't even know the recipients.
Does somebody know how to solve the problem?
Is there any risk linked to that problem?
En Tentative answer: if somebody is using your iCloud account on your behalf, you better change ASAP your password! (your iCloud personal data may be accessed, also the "person" (?) using your account may know where you are at anytime ... ("Find my iPhone/Pad/Mac...").
By the way I'd like to know if (at last, like Gmail) there is now a way to detect any "unusual connection", like from a distant IP - or, simply, to be able to list the last accesses (IP...)
Fr Tentative de réponse: si quelqu'un utilise votre compte à votre insu, changez le mot de passe rapidement! (Accès aux données perso, "Find my iphome... permet de savoir où vous ètes...)

My contacts aren't backing up from my iPhone to iCloud.

I have had an account since it was .mac and you paid for storage. I recently updated to an iPhone and then my husband just got an iPhone and iCloud account as well. We use Google to host the Exchange mail from our office, and our calendars and contacts back up to there just fine. I've been through all (I think) the steps to make sure all choices are correct to get my phone to back up to Cloud, but to no avail. It's the same on my husband's phone. Our calendars aren't backing up either.
I

If you mean your contacts and calendars aren't syncing with iCloud, and do not appear on icloud.com when you check from your computer, it's probably because they are being synced with an exchange account. iCloud only syncs iCloud contacts and calendars, not contacts and calendsrs from exchange accounts.

IPhone Mail inbox not syncing with Mac inbox

Greetings
Since upgrading my MBP recently, mail in my iPhone Mail inbox/sent items has not been syncing fully with my Mac Mail inbox/sent items.
Messages which are moved to folders stored On My Mac remain in my iPhone inbox.
Messages which are moved to folders stored in iCloud are removed from my iPhone in inbox and are visible as they should be in the iCloud folders on my iPhone.
I use both an iCloud email account as well as an account through my domain host. I do not use Gmail or an Exchange account, and tis problem dud not occur with my old MBP.
Any advice most gratefully received.
Sashina.

Hi KiltedTIm
Hmmm. I've changed my Mac, iPhone and iPad all from POP to IMAP. On my Mac there are only two items in the inbox in question, but on both mobile devices are every bit of mail from that account (not in filed iCloud folders) going back to 17 April. I've restarted both devices but everything is still in the inbox.
Any further ideas?
Thanks!
