Mail does no work on iCloud account on MacBook or MacBook Air

Mail asks for password and then continuously repeats the request for the password.

Same issue and cant find anywhere where Apple addresses this. Please respond with how to fix this or that this is a known problem and we are working to fix this.

  • Mail does not work with gmail accounts anymore

    Since yesterday or so, my google mail accounts don't connect anymore. All of them. All other accounts are still working.
    - Connection doctor tells me the standard "couldn't connect, check if its really port 993 blah" thing.
    - I'm on 10.9.5
    - I tried remove one of the accounts under Internet Accounts and "re install" it, which worked partially: Internet Accounts accepted the google password, and added the account. I ticket Emails. It reappeared in Mail, but still with connection issues (and now no emails what-so-ever associated with that account).
    What can I do next?

    Have you checked your incoming and outgoing mail server settings?
    If you are using IMAP, it should look something like the following:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    imap.gmail.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL:Yes
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires TLS
    smtp.gmail.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Use same settings as incoming mail server
    If you are using POP3, it should look something like the following:
    Incoming mail server type: POP3
    Incoming mail (POP3 or IMAP) server: pop.gmail.com. Google Apps users, enter the server name provided, don't add your domain name in these steps.
              Port: 995
    Outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) name: smtp.gmail.com
         Port: 465
    Outgoing server requires authentication: enabled

  • Have iCloud account, have changed e-mail address, can't edit iCloud account, how is this done?

    How do I edit my iCloud account?

    OK, After an hour or so, I found a resolution to this if anyone runs into the problem as described above.
    I had to go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar
    Select my iCloud account and turn off all the components
    Mail > Off
    Contacts > Off
    Calendars > Off
    Reminders > Off
    Safari > Off
    Notes > Off
    Passbook > Off
    Photo Stream > Off
    Documents and Data > Off
    Find My iPhone > Off
    The only component that stalled for awhile was Calendars. I am not sure why as I dont have any data there. Once everything was turned off, I was able to Delete the iCloud account. I cannot explain this behaviour, but it worked.

  • Mail does not work

    I have had this problem for few days now, the mail does not work.
    It starts to run, but the colorful circle starts to spin and nothing else happens... I can not go to the preferences or anywhere else and it does not open my account. Only thing that I can do is force quit. I have tried everything I know; repaired permissions, run the cd to check the disk...
    Does anyone know what I should do? This is the first time I have this kind of problem...

    How many email accounts do you have setup, or are you still trying to get it to open so you can setup accounts? And you are still using 10.4.11 as it says in your profile, right?
    If you've already repaired permissions and the disk, quit Mail and go to Users/username/Library/Mail and delete the Envelope Index file, but +*don't delete the Trash*+. Then launch Mail and if it gets that far, let it import your mail messages, which shouldn't take too long. If that solves your problem, then you can empty the Trash.

  • The search function on my "sent" mail does not work - can anyone help?

    The search function on my "sent" mail does not work. When I type in more than two letters into the saerch box - the sent mail screen goes blank. Any ideas how to fix this? Apple technical support has not been much help for the past five days...

    As this is the forum for the MacBook Pro hardware, your question will be better answered in the OS X Snow Leopard forum where the Mail app is discussed.

  • The "always match my default message font" option in the Signature preferences from Mac Mail does not work if e-mail is received in other Mail Software. How can I make it work?

    The "always match my default message font" option in the Signature preferences from Mac Mail does not work if e-mail is received in other Mail Software. How can I make it work?

    I found this plugin which solved pretty much all of my mail font rendering problems.  It is designed for Lion, so don't know whether it will work but thought I would offer it up.

  • Filter in mail does not work

    All of a sudden, filtering in Mail does not work.
    If I type a word that I KNOW appears in several emals, in the Search Mailbox field in the top right corner, it comes up empty.
    That happens even if I type the word "and".
    I have the All button selecterd.
    Is anyone else having this trouble?
    Thanks.

    OS X Server Lion

    Also, many of these emails use your friend's email address as the source email, so it will circumvent your attempts to filter by in address book.
    Take a look at the Raw source of the email and see if any of your conditions are being triggered as valid.

  • HT204053 How does one open an ICloud account? I do have a valid an Apple ID. Please Help

    How does one open an Icloud Account?

    You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  You do this by going to Settings>iCloud (on an iOS device) or System Preferences>iCloud (on a Mac) and signing in with your Apple ID.
    Once you create your account you will then be able to sign into the account using the ID on your PC.

  • Do I need to use mail if I have an iCloud account?

    Do I need to use "mail" if I have an iCloud account?

    Mac Mail should be called Mac Mail Reader. It is intended to make picking up, sorting, organizing, and sending mail through one or several mail accounts (one of which could be iCloud) easier.
    You can use WebMail (not an Application, you just navigate to the iCloud mail repository with your Browser).
    You can use a different mail reader. I think Mozilla was providing one if you like their stuff.

  • Maverick's Mail does not work with Gmail ! it works better with iOS 7

    For info.
    I do know how it's complex to program and more for an OS System.
    Maverick's Mail DOES NOT work proprely with Gmail boxes ? Gmail incoming or outcoming messages are correctly notified on my iPhone 5s with iOS 7. But not on my Macbook Pro retina (end 2012) with Mavericks. One update was suppose to solve the trouble.
    Hope you'll solve the problem as soon as possible. Bur not during the nights. But during your daytimes' work !
    Wish you nice end of year's days.
    And please get my best wishes for 2014. Hope you'll get a lot of these nice little moments of happiness.
    Best regards.

  • Need urgent help! - I accidentally sycn my friend's iphone account to my company's phone. I could not swich back to my own icloud account because of the icloud password i enter was incorrect. My friend does not use this icloud account since age.

    Need urgent help! - I accidentally sync my friend's iphone account to my company's iphone. I could not switch back to my own icloud account because of the icloud password i enter was incorrect. My friend does not use this icloud account since age only remember 1 password which i already try but iphone shown that " incorrect password" I checked on icloud ID and try to log in but it shown as " You Apple ID was disable for security reason. To enable your account must reset password" but so bad again, the email address that he used to create icloud ID also lock for security reason. May Apple Supporter please help reset it ASAP? I can verify that I am the iphone's owner, as it belong to company's phone.

    Have your company IT department get proof that the company was the
    original purchaser of the iPhone and visit a physical Apple store with
    proof of original purchase, proof that person is company representative,
    and the iPhone - Apple may be able to help. If no physical Apple store,
    contact Apple - you will still need the same items of proof.
