Just set up icloud and now mail won't...

I just set up icloud on my mac and now my mail won't recognize my password. Formerly, on mobileme i had the main computer which was pre-intel so now I'm switching to my intel mac. Everything is fine on cloud, all the data is there, but on my computers (intel computer and also pre-intel) when I try to check my mail it keeps saying that it doesn't recognize the password. I get mail fine on my iphone, and when I log into icloud but not on my computers (pre-intel or intel).

It's because you are using Leopard. You will need to either upgrade your Mac to Snow Leopard then Lion or manually set up mail on your Mac in Mac Mail. http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmail.html is a link to a tutorial online on how to set up your mail manually on your Mac. MobileMe is offering a free upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard. The link is me.com/snow-leopard. You can redeem a free disc to get your Mac to Snow Leopard, you will have to pay for the upgrade to Lion yourself though.

I just moved to iCloud and now my old emails are gone. How do I get them back?

I just moved to iCloud and now all my old e-mails (not from a me account) are gone. How can I get my e-mail back? Please Help!!

Hi Roger!
You are right. It was not exaclty the moving to iCloud that caused the e-mail to disappear. What happened after the change to iCloud was that I did see my old email but when I tried to open it just does not show any content.
Then I looked at some options and did Choose Mailbox > Rebuild.
That is when all my old mail disapeared.
Any suggestions?
Thank you so much for your help!!

I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

Have you tired opening it from the Applications folder?
What happens when you try to open Mail?

My computer won't let me run the setup.exe file. I am an admin I've run as admin and I've downloaded many times. I just reformatted my computer and now it won't work.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

You did a d/l of the iTunes .dmg - did you install by opening the .dmg and following the dialogs?

HT204150 I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help

I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help?

Also, what are the source of your contacts? are they created on the phone, or you synced from yahoo/hotmail etc.
If thats the case, the circular arrow wont be visible but instead show "groups"
Contacts from different accounts are not synced to iCloud.

So my i just dropped my iPad and now it won't start up. It just keeps turning on and off. Like the apple symbol shows up and then goes away? What happened and is there a way to fix it. I tried restoring and that didn't work

I pretty much stated it in my question. I dropped my iPad and now it won't boot itself up. The apple symbol shows up, then the screen turns all black and weird looking with a strange green color at the bottom, and just turns off. It keeps doing this over and over. What happened and is there a way to fix it? I also tried connecting it to itunes and that doesn't seem to be working. It detects an ipad but can't seem to read anything else. It tells me to try and restore it but I can't. HELP!!!

Try this. It worked for a few users after a drop.
Turn the iPad over and give it a very HARD slap on the back. May take several slaps.

I just reseted my ipod and now it won't let me download any apps. Why?

i just reseted my ipod & now it won't let me download any apps. Why?

Hi
I'm having the same problem on my iPads, iPods and iPhones. All use the same apple I'd for the App Store.
Has been like this for a few days. Happening with updates, new apps and if I delete and try to re-download.

I just updated my ipod and now it won't connect to itunes, and itunes says to restore it, but I dont want to lose all of my data.

I just updated my iPod to iOS 6 and now it won't connect to iTunes, and iTunes says to restore it, but if I restore it I will lose all of my data. What do I do?

Uhless this program will get the iPod out of recovery mode you will have to restore via iTunes.

HT201240 I re- set my password and now apple won't allow updates

I have re set my password and now can't get updates to load.
Keeps asking for my password

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
With only one attempt left, it is unlikely that we will be able to be of any help. The next time it is entered wrong, your BB will wipe itself clean of all of your data. There is no way to stop it. None. You must get the password correct on the next attempt. There's no way for us to know what password you used...so you must try to see if you can get it right. Don't do what you've already tried...you already know it does not work. Sorry, but it looks like you will be restoring from your most recent backup.
Best.

I just moved to iCloud and now my email is not working on my non compatible MacBook, but all other devices seem to be working.

I have several Apple products, some eligible for iCloud and some not. I was using MobileMe and elected to keep my email address after June 30. I moved to iCloud and everything seems to be working except for my MacBook that couldn't be upgraded to Lion so not eligible for iCloud. Now my email doesn't work on that machine. What's wrong?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

Just upgraded to Mavericks and now Safari won't load pages

Hi, I just upgraded to OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 yesterday. Prior to downloading the new operating system Safari was working perfectly.
After I finished downloading Mavericks I tried to open Safari but I have kept seeing a message, either the page was not responding or "Safari cannot connect to the server."
My computer says that my Wifi is working, but still I cannot access any webpages. I can only access them through my ethernet connection.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually 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.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

PowerBook crash and now Mail won't open

My PowerBook G4 crashed hard some time ago, and since then Mail hasn't worked (I defaulted back to Eudora because I was swamped, but now I finally have some time to try to deal with this). When I open it, I get as far as the menu headings (File, Edit, etc) but no windows and then get the spinning beach ball of doom and have to force quit. I'm guessing some file got corrupted when everything crashed.
I've browsed the forum a bit for advice, and here's what I've tried so far:
Repaired both permissions and disk from the 10.4 install disk (no disk errors found; some permissions repaired but nothing mail related so far as I could tell).
Tried opening mail with the shift key down (no luck), with Airport off (also no luck), with Airport off and the shift key down (still nothing), and in SafeBoot mode (and again nothing!). So I don't think the problem has to do with a particular message that's corrupted or anything (which seems to be a common problem).
Created a test account and opened Mail from there- it got me at least as far as the first "set up Mail" window, though I didn't bother to take it further. (Should I?) Suggests a bad prefs file rather than the program itself?
I've tried looking for the crash log, but when I look at the ~Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Mail.crash.log file the only crash listed is from about 2 years ago. Is there someplace else a crash log would be hiding?
I haven't played with deleting prefs or other files yet; I'd like to make sure I've covered all my bases before I have to start recreating account info and stuff.
Other info: I'm using Mail 2.1 and OS 10.4.8; it's an IMAP account. Let me know what other info would be helpful.
Any advice would be welcome!

Hi Kenichi,
I dragged that folder to the desktop; it didn't help. The Cache/Mail folder contains folders numbered 00 to 15, each of which also contained folders 00 to 15, each of which contained several cache files. Does that sounds normal? (Should I bother putting it back?)
What's next? The prefs, or something else?
Thanks!
Lisa

I've set up iCloud and now have got guest user - what is that and why

I have set up my iCloud account and now have got a guest user on my iMac - what is that and why have I got it?
What happens if I find a way of taking that off the 'introduction screen'?
Any help or advice most welcome.

Apps downloaded on one should also appear on the other as long as the app in question runs on both iPads and iPhones.
