.mac server settings on iPhone

I am unable to see or change the outgoing mail server in my .mac account on the iPhone. The support page indicates that you should be able to access this on the iPhone but it is not there. Is any one else having this issue?
12" PowerBook Mac OS X (10.4.10)

If you are accessing your .Mac account as a .Mac type account or IMAP account with Mail on your Mac, delete your .Mac account on the iPhone and recreate it selecting Other instead of .Mac after selecting Add Account.
Choose IMAP as the account type filling in all required information.
This will provide for the SMTP server settings being available after re-creating the account.
For the SMTP server use: smtp.mac.com:587
In addition, deselect your .Mac account to be kept synchronized with your iPhone via the iPhone preferences with iTunes so the recreated account will not be changed back to as it was before.

Quicktime Streaming Server settings for iPhone ? Can it be done?

Can one stream live video to the iPhone?
I'm trying all the settings and it keeps saying movie will not play.

The iPhone doesn't support streamed media per se. It can load full media files, but EDGE and quick time limits your capabilities

Iphone not sending/receiving on 3G after Mac server upgrade

The Company I work has its own dedicated Mac Server which acts as an email server and a server for the Filemaker program and it was on version 10.6.8 and for a Filemaker upgrade it needed a system update, So I updated the system to 10.8.4, the update itself went through without any problems,
Once the update was finished, I applied the server app, it took a while but that worked as well, the Filemaker program was working, However the emails were not working, but after contactingthe person who originally configured emails who is also an apple engineer, it took him a few hours to sort it but it was fixed and the emails started to work great
The Emails are working on almost everything, however my colleagues who had IPhones could not send or receive over 3G but they would work over Wi-Fi but other phones such as HTC, Samsung would work fine over 3G for the emails, just the iPhones wouldnot. I checked the settings which were working perfectly before the update, but are not working now, I deleted a email account from the iPhone and tried to re add over a 3G connection and the verification process goes through ok when adding the account, but when the mail tries to sync, it just times out
the phone carrier for 3G is EE (orange and T-Mobile)
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

I have had the same problem, here is the fix. Go to settings/messages/ where is says send and receive/ click your apple ID/ a option box will pop up, click CHANGE LOCATION/ choose united states

Iphone 5s mail account server settings inadvertently changes

I have a 2009 Mac Book Pro (Mavericks 10.9.4) a 2014 iPad Air and iPhone 5s both on the latest iOS (7.1.2).
I have been having problems getting my iPhone mail server settings to remain as they are set up, and as recommended by my telco provider (Vodafone)
I want my iPad and MBP to be able to access my mail over wifi by being tethered to me cell phones 4G internet connection. I have gone through the set up with my telco on numerous occasions deleting and resetting server details but have never been able to get a stable set up.
For some unknown reason the mail server account settings on my iPhone get changed automatically with the addition of a duplicate pop.3 account, but with the same email and password yet a differently spelt user name. My telco say this is a fault with my recently purchased new iPhone or the most recent apple software rather than something that is a fault at their end.
Is there anything I can do to my phone to rectify this problem or is it as I assume a problem in some way with my account details with my telco?

Mac Mail setup pop, imap....etc Server Settings

Is there a list or spreadsheet showing all the mail service providers server settings?? I can setup .Mac, AOL. but in the case of Yahoo,, Earthlink, Gmail, Verizon etc. I can never get them to work. I've been through the setup assistant and doesn't help. I really dig the Mail app. but I have other email accounts that I'd like to bring em' to Mail app.
I work in legit theater and we're 95% mac and less then half use the mail app. for this problem.
I can never find server settings on their sites. If there was a list somewhere it would be helpful. Its easy enough to setup mail manually.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Andrew

For Gmail, you first need to enable POP access on the Gmail server.
For Earthlink, follow these instructions.
The server settings are usually on the ISP's site, if you search their support for "POP", "SERVER", "EMAIL" etc, you should be able to find it. There are a lot of servers, especially with the major ISPs that may run a different server for every geographic region they serve.- As an example, those Earthlink instructions are dependent on your email address.
If you still have trouble finding the server settings for a particular ISP, give them a call or send someone at their support an email.

Can not send email from .mac account from the iPhone

I'm having problems sending email from my iPhone from my .Mac Account and says the outgoing server timed out. Any Suggestions?

This error message indicates you are not using the correct server port for .Mac's SMTP server.
Did you transfer the account settings from your Mac to the iPhone automatically via the iTunes sync process or did you manually create your .Mac account on the iPhone?
If the former, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP Server selection, select the Server Settings button below for .Mac's SMTP server.
If 25 is available in the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting and then re-sync your iPhone making sure your .Mac account is selected for account settings to be transferred to the iPhone.

Trust relation between mac server 2.2.1 (10.8 mountain lion) and windows server 2008 r2

i have the following settings:
windows 2008R2 domain server.
mac server 2.2.1
mac client machines
mac server machine is joined to Active Directory in windows 2008r2 without any problems.
mac client machine is joined to mac server without any problem.
the only problem is that i cannot log in to the mac client machine with a username from the active directory in windows 2008r2. i can log in with a created user on the mac server.
i did a trust relation in windows 2008r2:
Realm trust
Transitive
One-way incoming
still cannot log with ad users. can anyone help me in the configurations if i missed something? i am new to mac servers and their configurations.

does this mean that on every mac client i have to join 2 domains, the windows domain and mac domain?
Yes
then, why to use "workgourp manager" in mac to copy all the active directory users to mac server group? i do this to make all users available for authentication through mac serve ronly.
Am I right? The users on your macserver are a copy of your users of the AD? It was not necessary to do that. Because all Users will listed on the Server.app on the User-Manager if you setup was correct. And this means:
- first join your Mac (used as Server) to your Active Directory
- second Install the Server.app. The Setup Wizard will do the rest.
In my case, on the Usersection an the Server.app I will find "Benutzer von FAMILY-NET" that is my Active Domain.
and if i join the mac client to windows domain for authentication, why do i need the mac server for? i need only to authenticate users in active directory on mac os x and that is only it.
In this case - you need no Mac Server!
Only if you want to use the Services of the Mac-Server (DNS, Wiki, Mail,...) or Manage you IOS/Mac Devices. Than it is necessary.
sorry for my many questions, i am very new to mac os x and server.
No problem. I lived in Mac-Worlds since 2 years. I infected with it with the purchase of my first iphone.

IMAP fine in Mail; "Connection to the Server Failed" on iPhone?

So on my Mac, I have both GMail (works great on iPhone) and an IMAP account for my work's Exchange server set up.
Both accounts work just fine on my Mac; I don't even need to connect to the VPN on my Mac to read Exchange email via IMAP through Mail.
The problem is that the iPhone gives me the "connection to the server failed" whenever I try to connect on either EDGE or wi-fi to read the IMAP Exchange email. The settings in both Mail and the iPhone are identical.
If I turn on the VPN on the iPhone, I get the same message...but at this point, I'm thinking the VPN on the iPhone is worthless.
Can anyone think of a reason why the iPhone can't connect to IMAP even though the laptop can? I'm wracking my brain here trying to figure this out. The purchase of 2 iPhones for other staff to use depends on me getting this up & running! I can tell you that the others will NOT accept "setting up a Yahoo!/GMail account for forwarding. They want their email coming in & responses going out with the company's headers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

This morning, I was able to fully "unlock" and "open" the correct ports (I believe), and now I'm able to receive email from the IMAP Exchange server. According to the IT guy who's helping me, we opened ports 143 and 25 on the ISA server (firewall), and I'm able to receive. Does this sound right to you?
The only problem now is sending. I cannot send any mail through this work account on the iPhone. Mail just "hangs." I can still send/receive just fine on my iBook Mail account for Exchange (IMAP), but no dice on sending.
The Incoming Mail Server and SMTP/outgoing Server addresses are identical. Works fine on the Mac, but not the iPhone. I do believe the 143 port is now fully open...I think.
Am I still missing something? Thanks for your help!

You are making some progress with setup of wireless network. Apparently there is reliability problem with the wireless connection. Perhaps you want to refer to following Apple support documents and start tweaking parameters in the router to improve the reliability. I used to have third-party routers such as Belkin and Netgear but switched to Apple Airport routers (Time Capsule then Airport Extreme for now) because of incompatibility issues whenever Apple upgrade Mac OS X. But since Apple develops Airplay protocol as alternative to Bluetooth for wireless audio/video streaming (with much better bandwidth) and must be deployed in any wireless network, there is no reason third-party routers not working for Airplay protocol.

How do I create a DNS record on my Mac Server?

How do I create a DNS record on my Mac Server?

The following is info that I found in another post that I have been trying to follow.

Re: Configure DNS - OS X Server Next Steps
Feb 13, 2011 6:36 AM (in response to Jimbooooooo)
You're setting up internal DNS services, you referenced your ISP DNS servers and you should not have, and now those servers have no translations for your hosts. This is a common misconfiguration.
See [configuring DNS on Mac OS X Server|http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1436] for how to set up your internal DNS server.
And if there are any references to your ISP DNS servers here (within your client settings, within your server settings, your Airport settings, etc), then you're usually going to have DNS and connectivity problems. You're running a server now, so you'll be running your own services, and (particularly because of NAT here) referencing only your own DNS server(s).
You may be setting up external DNS (if and when you need that), but that should happen after you set up your internal DNS. The above article has a link to setting up external DNS, when you get around to that, if/when you need in-bound connections into your LAN.

Can't override DNS Server settings - can only append!

See this thread for a similar question:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3555096
I have also filed this with Apple (Problem ID 5159216). Here is the text of the report (with a few bits removed - not crucial to understanding the report).
If anyone has suggestions/clues to resolve, please advise. Thanks!
Summary:
This problem concerns AirPort Extreme (802.11n) at revision 7.1. I will summarize with a comparison between AirPort and MacOS X.
MacOS X and Airport Extreme (referred herein as "AE") both permit editing of DNS server settings whether in DHCP or Manual mode.
When MacOS X DNS server settings are set manually by the end-user, the new server IPs are used (good). When AE's DNS server settings are overridden by the end-user, the new server IPs are NOT used (not good)! Rather, the DHCP-supplied DNS server always pre-empts whatever is given in the AE Configuration UI.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using AirPort Extreme (802.11n) at revision 7.1 and MacOS 10.4.9 on a MacBook Pro (Core 2 Duo). The AE has been previously configured for IPv4 using DHCP and the MacBook is successfully connected and resolving domain names through the AE.
2. Visit "Apple Menu > Location > Network Settings" and check the AirPort TCP/IP settings. For purposes of this test, make sure the "DNS Servers" field is EMPTY so MacOS X defaults to the AE's DNS settings, then close System Preferences.
3. Run "AirPort Utility" (the newer version, not "Airport Admin Utility") and configure the AE under test. Pick the "Internet" icon in the toolbar and note the Internet Connection settings.
4. In this test, Configure IPv4 is set to "DHCP" and the DNS Server(s) field contains two DNS IPs assigned by the Internet Service Provider. In my case that's Cablevision's Optimum Online service. You may or may not see IP addresses here, but in my case they are visible.
5. As the DNS Server(s) are editable, and they both show ISP-supplied addresses, they can be changed to whatever alternate IPs you wish. For instance, change them to these alternate DNS IPs from OpenDNS.com: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. (You could use any alternate set of IPs but for the purpose of this test use the OpenDNS IPs.) Update the AE and restart.
(For additional reference, http://www.opendns.com/start/airport.php shows instructions for the older AirPort Admin Utility, but the concept is exactly the same.)
6. Normally you shouldn't have to restart the MacBook Pro since we're just using the AE settings, but go ahead and do that just to be consistent with this test.
Expected Results:
Now for the moment of truth! We want to verify that we're using the OpenDNS IPs for our DNS Servers. One nice feature OpenDNS has is automagic redirection for certain domain name typos.
Here's an example. Drop to shell (Applications > Utilities > Terminal) and try this command (excluding the $ prompt, natch):
$ dig craigslist.og
The "og" typo is deliberate. We really want to go to craigslist.org. If you're using the new OpenDNS IPs, you will STILL get an Address (A) record with an IP like so:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
craigslist.og. 0 IN A 208.69.32.130
If you had entered "craigslist.og" in Safari, you would end up at 208.69.32.130 (an OpenDNS server) and then redirected to craigslist.org.
Actual Results:
Alas, that's not what happens! Instead, you get NO IP address, like so:
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;craigslist.og. IN A
This means we're not actually using the OpenDNS IPs. What's happening?
To find out, I spoke with the AirPort support group (Case # xxx-xxx-xx). I learned that, despite being allowed to edit and override the IP addresses provided via DHCP, the AE still uses the DHCP-provided DNS server if available.
Again, the user interface suggests that I'm allowed to override the DHCP-provided DNS IPs as shown in the UI. Even though I can do this, the AirPort will still keep note of any DHCP-provided DNS Server IPs and use those first.
True, I can switch to Manual network settings (and then my own DNS Server IPs take effect). Of course this is problematic when the ISP renews my IP address (which it does from time to time).
Another workaround is to use the "DNS Servers" settings noted in step 2 (above). However this is also problematic if I want to keep my network settings simple. It requires a "Home Network" location and an "Office" location. Still not preferable, but it's a workaround.
Regression:
n/a
Notes:
I would like AirPort's DNS settings to be overridden in the same way OS X allows DNS settings to be overridden. The user interfaces suggest this is possible but it is not. It's only possible in the OS X case. Having the same flexibility on the AirPort would be most welcome.

Afraid of the answer...sheesh...you must be a child. This has nothing to do with masquerading anything. The issue being discussed here is that people want to manually assign a dns server address via the new AEBS, while maintaining DHCP for IP address assignments through their ISP. For example, I would like to have opendns.com take care of all dns addressing at the router level, even though I have "Configure IPv4" set to "Using DHCP". If you do not understand why one would want to use something like opendns.com, please visit their website and enlighten yourself. The fact that the dns server address fields are editable when set to "Using DHCP" leads one to believe that you can manually assign a dns server in this configuration; however, under firmware 7.1.1, you still cannot. The previous iteration of the airport hardware can do it, as can nearly any router you pull off the shelf. In addition, this is something that can easily be done at the individual-computer level in OS X; however, many people would prefer to administer their network at the router level. That is the issue being discussed here. Either you can't read or you are purposely derailing the thread.

You will need to get the required info to create/access the account with an email client from your school.
Are you currently accessing the account with an email client on your computer - if you have a Mac with the Mail.app, or if you have a PC with Outlook Express, etc.? If so, you can get the required account settings there.
