IPhone MobileMe account push mail

Hi,
I'm having some trouble getting my push mail (.mac address) to work on the IPhone. I know that there have been certain issues with MobileMe and the whole push stuff... are these issues still going on?
Also deleted mails on the IPhone don't get deleted on the cloud, but I've learnt from the forum that this is a known bug.
Any help, please?

You might get a better response if you ask in the dedicated *MobileMe on iPhone and iPod Touch > MobileMe Mail* forum, as that is where people who are using MobileMe are most likely to see posts relating to it.

Offline MobileMe account on Mail application

Hi
I have been a MobileMe customer and mac user for several years. I use my Mail app for multiple email accounts. Yesterday my MobileMe account within Mail app went offline, and seems adamant that it will not return online.
I have tried deleting the MobileMe account in Mail app, restarting and re-creating ... but did not work ... error message appeared at first screen (with name, email, password).
I have a substantial number of folders/emails on the MobileMe server, and have lost access to these too.
My MobileMe account continues to be successfully accessed through me.com and also via my wife's laptop and my ipod touch. Therefore problem seems local to mail app on my imac rather than mobileme account or isp.
Any guidance most welcomed.

Error message
"There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “[email protected]” or try again. The server returned the error: The server “mail.me.com” refused to allow a connection on port 993."

I don't think you can access Netscape via an email client, only through their web-based pages. Possible someone knows a plugin to bypass this, similar to the way Hotmail is accessed from Mail.

HT2500 Adding me mobileme account to mail will not work because it does not accept the password but works on iphone and ipad?

I am attempting to add my mobile me account to mail on my iMac. The first step is to give the email address and the password. For some reason it does not recognize the password. It is the some password used on iphone and ipad and logging on to me.com

Hello,
The problem isn't really the Password, but the default Servers if you choose MobileMe for account type.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to http://appleid.apple.com then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
Thanks to dpepper...

MobileMe account in Mail stopped working, iPhone fine.

Can anyone help shed any light on this? My MobileMe mailbox within the Mail app appears to have stopped working, but on my iPhone, MobileMe is working just fine. I've restarted my Mac, rebuilt the mailbox, reinstalled the password. Nothing. I just get a spinning wheel, and my messages are not being picked up. Any suggestions?
BTW, I never had this in Leopard- which worked effortlessly (I just recently upgraded to SL, and both Mail and Safari just don't work as well/ fast as they used to- or as it seems anyway).

Iphone, Me and push mail

I have iPhone, 1 MS exchange mail account, 1 me.com account and 1 gmail account.
how do I make all of those "Push-Mail" ?
does my "me.com" account allow to pull mails from those accounts then push them down to my iPhone?

As I understand it, only your .me account will push email. The rest, pull. If you forward the others to your .me account, they will get pushed to you from .me, but I'm not sure whether they will get pushed to your .me account. I think it will depend on your other email accounts. Of course, you will also lose your separate mailboxes on your iPhone, as they will all now be in your .me mailbox.

MobileMe not Pushing Mail to Folders on iPhone/iPad

The server side rules for Mobile Me mail is welcome. So all mail from work can be sent directly to a folder called "Work"
However, mail is not pushed to any folders other than InBox so there is no notification that new mail has arrived in "Work". In fact mail is not downloaded to that folder until you access it on your iPhone/iPad.
If you have many folders then the only way to know if mail has arrived is to laboriously click on each one.
Anyone have any ideas? Is Apple going to fix this basic problem that should have been considered when introducing server side rules?

I also would like to know the answer to this question.

IPhone / MobileME calendar push

I'm using MobileME on a trial basis - so far i like it alright. i have a Yahoo! and Gmail email accounts both forwarding to my new "me.com" account. in mobileME, i can make a calendar entry on my laptop and my iMac at home and everything pushes up to the 'cloud'. but when i make a calendar entry on my iPhone, it does not automatically push the info out. my iPhone settings for mail/calendar/contacts are as follows:
fetch new data > PUSH (ON)
wondering what the problem is.
only complaint about mobileME is that there is no SPAM control.

You know, it sort of resolved itself.
I changed it from 1 Month to All Events, let it sit for a while, and then switched it back. That seemed to refresh iPhone's memory of what it had and had not synced, because now the push changes are working perfectly between iPhone and MobileMe for all calendars.
(Alternately, it could have been fixed by Invisible iPhone Gnomes. Whichever one sounds better.)

Hi, if 10.5.x, in System Preferences>MobileMe, remove name & password if there, then in Mail>Preferences>Accounts, highlight that account & click the tiny minus icon below.

MobileMe and iCloud accounts in Mail on my iPhone

In Oct 2011 a user wrote:
"I updated to iCloud and now I have both MobileMe and iCloud accounts in Mail on my iPhone 4s. I don't have the option to delete the MobileMe account so now I have two of the same account under different names. How do I delete the MobileMe and keep the iCloud?"
The following response solved that users issue:
"Open the MobileMe preferences in System Preferences, sign out. Open the Mail, Contacts, Calendars preferences and either turn off the MM account or delete it. The MM account will disappear at the end of June 2012. You can delete any MM account you have currently turned on in your iPhone's settings."
I have the same issue, and that helpful response does not apply in my situation. On my Mac, I am signed out of my MobileMe account; the Mail, Contacts, Calendars preference does not show a MobileMe account, just iCloud.
On my iPhone, Mailboxes in Mail shows my MobileMe address and iCloud entries - both mailboxes/accounts show the same folders and messages. Also, in Settings' Mail, Contacts, Calendars the Accounts does not have a MobileMe entry, just iCloud.
Mailboxes in Mail on my iPad 2, on the other hand, does not show the MobileMe address; it only shows the iCloud entry.
Any recommendations on how to remove the MobileMe entry on my iPhone?

Don't count on it! Both my iPad and iPhone4S are on 5.1 and both are having problems right now!

Iphone 3g 2.2 mail (mobileme) not updating unread count

hello. i have an iphone and recently updated to 2.2 (not sure if this has anything to do with it) and have a mobileme account.
push works fine, and if i mark a message as read on the iphone (i.e. read it), it updates the mobileme web interface OK. but if i change the unread status on the web interface it doesn't update the iphone mail count.
the only way to update it is to keep opening and running the mail app - which seems pointless. I have set up to fetch every 15 mins and yet even after waiting an hour it still doesn't update the count to match the web interface!
I am obviously doing something wrong, can anyone help me please?

I've found deleting and reinstalling the account in Mail.app and on the iPhone helps. Now when I read on the iPhone it updates very quickly on the desktop. But when I read on the desktop it doesn't update quickly on the iPhone. But it will if I launch the mobilemail.app.
Previously no amount of launching would help update the unread count on either application. So, I've gotten over half-way there.

Multiple MobileMe accounts – Set the one used for publishing Photos & Video

I'm running OS 3.0 on an iPhone 3G S. I've configured two MobileMe accounts, both Mail only (no Calendar, no Contacts). MobileMe account 1 is also the default email account as of Settings.
However: When I use one of the sharing features in the Photos app, it wants to publish to Galleries of MobileMe account 2 (though, as stated above, account 1 is set to be the default email account).
Any idea how to change this?
In the list of configured email accounts MobileMe account 2 is listed below MobileMe account 1. However, alphatically MobileMe account 2 ranges before MobileMe account 1. Is Photos simply picking the first MobileMe account it finds in alphabetical order?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Macworld has a workaround for this that seems to work ok:

On getting the deleted mail accounts to sync back from iTunes, I had to de-select them first, and then re-select to get them to show up afterwards, but at least I can upload to the correct account now.

How to work seperately with 2 MobileMe addresses in Mail?

Hello!
I have several MobileMe addresses I'd like to add to Mail. I'm already working with one (private), but would like to add a second one (business). I don't want the mails to show up together, but keep both adresses seperate in Mail.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks!

Just create another MobileMe account in Mail. Go to Mail -> Preferences, click the Accounts icon and click the + button at the bottom left corner of the window. Enter the requested info.

Why can't I push emails to 2 different MobileMe accounts on the iPhone?

Makes no sense since I can set up a Yahoo! Mail account as push alongside a single MobileMe account with push mail as well.
Every time I set it up, the second account only gives me an option for Fetch or Manual.

I have the same problem. Here's my setup:
1) I have my own MobileMe account that I use for Mail, Contacts and Calendar syncing on my iPhone and Mac
2) My wife uses my MobileMe account for Contacts and Calendars so we use the same calendars and contacts. We just signed her up for her own MobileMe (trial) account to use just for her own PUSH email.
On her iPhone calendars and contacts sync perfectly via push. When I added her own MobileMe account to use for mail it only gives her the option for either FETCH or MANUAL! This makes no sense whatsoever. I figured it might have something to do with having my MobileMe account associated with her iPhone as well, so I deleted that association but still no options but FETCH or MANUAL for her mail. Prior to getting her own MobileMe account, I her her set up with YahooMail for push email and she was given the option for PUSH.
All of this makes no sense and is highly frustrating! I wonder if there is a reason and a fix? Anyone?

We bought 2 iPhone. 4s cant get mail on my husbands phone it says not a MobileMe account this account already been migrated to iCloud we have desk top and can't get mail also we have all the apple products

Can't get the email on my husbands iPhone we bought 2 phones I am able to get mail on my I phone and IPad can't get it on it ouch desk top and husbands iPhone

If you migrated your MobileMe account to iCloud, on your phone you should be able go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and enter the Apple ID associated with your iCloud account. On your desktop computer, you can configure your email client to get your @me.com email by following this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.
