Is my Gmail app on my iphone preventing my mail app from connecting to my gmail account?
Whenever I try to type in my information to my Mail app it will not verify my gmail account- it says my username/password is incorrect when it isn't.
Please help!

it may be a two part security verification. contact the email provider and see if you need a special password.
some users find simply changing the password resloves the issue.
heres a helpfull article

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

I have a macbook, an ipad, and an iphone with the Mail app on all three synced through icloud, but when I read and delete emails on my phone, the inbox on my ipad is not update, so I have to go through and mark as read or delete messages again. How can I sync my iphone and ipad? (it seems like each is synced only to my laptop, so don't synchronize until I go home and use my laptop.

POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

If I delete an app on my iPhone will it be deleted from my iTunes or my wife's phone? (Both phones use the same iTunes account)

It is easier for me to clean up my phone on the phone itself and not on the computer.
Thanks

No. It will only be Deleted on the Device you are Deleting it from.

Gmail spam folders not visible in Mavericks mail.app

I have upgraded the operating system to Mavericks on one of the Macs I use. In mail.app, I find that the Spam folder in my gmail accounts is not visible; the same is true of a number of other gmail folders that formerly appeared as subfolders of the main [Gmail] folder. I have found no mail.app preferences that might explain this disappearance. By accessing my gmail accounts via a web browser, I have confirmed that the Spam folders are still present in each.
Thanks in advance to anyone else who reports this issue and all the more so to anyone who can suggest a fix.

You have sub-folders of the Inbox???
I did see a post on Mountain Lion forum where the person had the same setup and got it back. I know I was part of the thread, but I can't find it.
You may need to remove the account and re-add it to Mail.

itunes cannot sync app to the iphone' my_iphone_name_here'because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined

I also got this message when trying to sync my 3G iPhone. I followed several suggestions found here: tried restarting everything, then changing automatic updates in iTunes. I also tried the "scan for hardware changes" suggestion, but nothing worked. Then as per the above posters, I also went into iTunes, selected Apps, and went to the bottom right to get App updates. A list of needed updates appeared with the icons, and as they updated, the icon would disppear, until I was left with "SoundCloud". It appeared to update fine, but the icon remained. I clicked "get update" a couple of times on the icon....it would update but the icon stayed on the list. I tried to sync after this and still got the error. . Then I then deleted SoundCloud from the phone, and the sync worked fine. SoundCloud was reinstalled on my phone during Step 4 of the sync. Hope this helps!!

I have a serious contacts redundancy problem. First I have multiple email account formats, e.g., 2011 MacOutlook, 2008 Entourage, 2007 Window Outlook, iPhone Exchange and these are all connected to the same account. The problem is I had up to 15 contact

I have a serious contacts redundancy problem.
First I have multiple email account formats,e.g., 2011 MacOutlook, 2008 Entourage, 2007 Window Outlook, iPhone Exchange and these are all connected to the same account. The problem is I had up to 15 contacts for the same person.
I deleted the Entourage contacts as that seemed to be the program that was causing the problems. When I synced this morning, now all my contacts are gone from every where.
How can I restore to my last back? If I restore, it will ask to restore to the back that was just made… which has no contacts?
Help would be greatly appreciated !!

GMail issues on iPhone built in mail app

Hi all,
Not sure if this is a Gmail / iPhone Mail-wide issue, but hoping it is.
I have an iPhone 4 (original) with iOS 7.1. Today, my built-in mail app had issues receiving mail, got some kind of 'cannot connect to Gmail IMAP' error most of the day. It now seems to be able to connect, but my inbox has become frazzled. I can basically only see the two most recently received messages. Every other message I can see in my inbox is an e-mail I have sent (in the list below the two most recent messages I've received). I can't see any of the other messages I've received, scrolling down the list only shows the ones I've sent. It's driving me nuts! I have removed my Gmail account and re-added it, same problem. I've logged into Gmail on the web and everything looks fine, I've even checked on my computer via the Apple Mail app and it all looks alright. Just the iPhone mail...not sure what is up.
Any ideas? Hoping some other people have experienced a similar issue!
Thanks.

Any ideas, guys? I had a similar issue on iOS 6 but the move to iOS 7 fixed it.
Yesterday, I moved a whole bunch of e-mails from my Gmail archive (on the web interface) to my inbox. Now my Mail app on iPhone is missing a whole chunk of my e-mails....not sure how to fix this!
Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks.
EDIT: I should add, when I cycle to the All Mail folder, I can see everything as normal...but the inbox in the Mail app is missing all e-mails from before yesterday evening, choosing to show only those that are from months ago (and even then, they're just ones I've sent, all the received ones are missing).

Email in gmail doesn't show up in mac mail app

I was looking for a specific email and searched the mail app by date and keywords and couldn't find it. Then I went to gmail on chrome and searched for it using the same keywords and found it. Why doesn't it show up in the mail app?

Hello. I got a similar issue. My iTunes 9 and my iPhone 3GS 3.1 works fine, they sync and so on. I got tethering service from my carrier and it worked fine using USB and Bluetooth with my MacBook. I don't know what happened but now it works only with Bluetooth. The ethernet adapter ˜Ethernet Adapter (enX)" - as shown in http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756 - is missing.
I can't find a way to recreate that iPhone adapter. When I try to tether thru USB nothing happens (no blue bar in iPhone), no adapter is recognized/created. When I tether thru Bluetooth everything works fine.
Does anyone know how to reset iPhone ethernet config in Mac OS? Thank you.

Reading messages on iphone causing Mac Mail App to have blank from, to, etc

So this is a weird one and I haven't found it covered so I'm at my wits end.
Not sure exactly when - but somewhere after installing Leopard I get the following behavior:
If I retrieve mail with mail.app first normally I get proper headers displayed in the message list window.
If I READ the email on my iPhone let alone respond to it, etc. and then go back to my mail.app all emails I chose to read, reply to, etc. have blank from, to, and subject lines in the message list window. They appear ok in the message window but not the message list window.
If I choose to reply to (or forward) any message that has these blanks the resulting email message to edit is missing subject line, to line, etc.
I'm running an IMAP account.

Yahoo prevents accessing a free Yahoo account with any email client such as the Mail.app on your Mac for U.S. residents.
Yahoo provides a free Push-IMAP account for iPhone customers which can be accessed with the iPhone's email client but with no others on another computer or device.
You can get a free AOL account which can be accessed as an IMAP account with the Mail.app on your Mac and with the iPhone's email client.
There arent too many free IMAP accounts available and you usually get what you pay for.

Gmail causing issues with other email using mail app

I use the standard mail app for 3 hotmail accounts (with my own domain name) & a work exchange account (which I turn on and off as required). These work well on iPhone 4 & iPad3 using IOS5.1.
However, on adding a gmail account to the mail program I stop receiving all email on the hotmail accounts. As soon as I delete gmail on a device, that device I starts receiving hotmail emails.
The solution for me was to delete the gmail account as I only set it up for analytics & don't need the mail. Although this issue would stop me switching to gmail full time.
Has anyone else encountered this error & found a solution?

No, you can’t. Gmail doesn’t let mail to be downloaded twice by either the same or different POP mail clients.
I believe .Mac actually handles something like this but I do not have it.
Any IMAP account would allow you to do this. Actually, almost any POP account other than Gmail would also at least let you download the same mail on both computers. It’s just Gmail that doesn’t.

IPhone, calender, iCal, mail.app: probem inviting people to meeting

Hi everyone,
last night I downloaded the 3.0 Version. Everything runs fine but...
I tried the new feature to invite people to appointments in calender. On the first sight everything works fine. But then there where Problems.
My colleague received my invitation on his iPhone but the iPhone could not open the "winmail.dat".
We then tried it using mail.app, where the "winmail.dat" was visible. The content of the "winmail.dat" could not be opened. Therefore iCal.app could also not handle the invitation.
This feature is very important to me and surely to many others.
Could anybody tell me what went wrong?
kind regards, Uwe

Ah! after talking to different people we found out that this might be the support for Exchange 2007 from Microsoft.
What I have to tell is that we are using Zarafa as a replacement for Exchange.
Probably this will be tha cause for the missing functionality.
As far as we know the colleagues from Zarafa are working hard to update their Software.
Still waiting for a solution,
regards, Uwe

Using folders in Mail app on iPhone - Synching iPhone and Mac Mail app

I have a hotmail account and my iMac is set up to recieve that mail to the Mail app. In the Mail app I have organized all the emails I have recieved into different folders but I would like those same folders to show up on my iPhone so that when an email comes in I can drag it to the appropriate folder and it will be in that folder on my iPhone as well as on my iMac. Also if I delete a email on my iPhone I would like it to delete in my Mail app on my iMac.
Is this possible? if so, how do I do it?
Thanks in advance for any help!!!

New emails should automatically get pushed onto your device; however if you have read your emails on a different computer or device it will still show as unread on your iphone.
follow the following steps make sure that they are right:
Settings
Mail Contacts Calendar
Fetch new Data
Ensure that “Push” is on
Ensure that “Every 15 Minutes” is selected
Go down to advanced
Select the accounts outstanding and change them to “Push”
