Mail erases account info and now requires a new port number to send mail
well like the topic said, my mail tends to erase all my account info, and when I re-enter it it says I cannot send or receive mail.
I somehow now got it so I can GET mail but it still won't let me send mail citing that the port number is wrong and now asks for an IMAP path prefix... sheesh...
any suggestions?
thanks!
OK...OK I think I fixed it... sorry for the crazed post
i was trying to change the port in the wrong window... i did the old 'change to port 587 trick' ...whew
but this does happen a lot... any reason why?
or is mail just buggy??

Mail quit-erased account info and emails
When I was trying to send an email, Mail quit. Didn't think much of it...just a gliche. When re-opened, I noticed ALL my emails were gone and upon further investigation, noticed that my account info had been replaced with a .mac account that I have never opened. Also, there was some weird "delivered" folder that showed up in the mailboxes, but had nothing in it.
Since then I've restored the accounts and working on trying to import my emails...
I really have no idea what happened, but if anyone has figured this one out, please let me know....I can't have this happen again.
Mac OS 10.4.4, Mail 2.0.5What is your hard drive capacity and available free space?
If you don't have adequate free hard drive space required for OS X to function properly, corruption or loss of application preference files can occur and all account information and general Mail.app preferences is stored in the Mail.app preference file. -
Inadvertently deleted SMTP Outgoing Mail Server address. Re-entered correct mail service provider's address and now have '(Offline)' tagged on server name. Can't SEND any emails. When I try, message will not send but goes into Outbox and sits. How can I get this SMTP address 'Online'? Help!
For whatever reason Yahoo blocked access to their mail servers from Apple Mail in the past couple of days. I deleted my Yahoo account in Apple Mail and tried to add it back. NO JOY.
Today, Yahoo has reopened their servers so that I could add my Yahoo account to Apple Mail again successfully. Even w the second app password.
The problem was at Yahoo. Apple Mail people were either blocked or knocked off from their Yahoo servers for a time. This may happen again as it has in the past. I hope it doesn't become a frequent happening. -

Help! I upgraded my iphone 4 to ios 6 and now one of my two emai accounts - my work account - no longer receives/sends emails. I checked my e-mail settings and they were correct. I then deleted the account and tried to re-add it, per discussions in other forums, and it won't verify the account. In addi tion, there was previously an Advanced section in the e-mail account setting, and now there isn't - don't know if that is part of the probem and the phone needs additional information that it's not asking for anymore . . . I'm beyond frustated. Many hours of lost productivity. Any suggestions? Can I got back to the previous version? I was thinking of buying new phone in next few months, but if this is resolved I'm leaving Apple.

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever. -

I have an iCloud email and Yahoo email on my iPhone that is now old as hacked and unused. I can't access anything as it asks for that account info and I don't remember the password etc. How do I delete and replace it with my new iPad email? ! Help..
Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan. -

After setting up a new account to my SMTP server and saving info how do I open it? When I touch on my new account bigpond.com it goes to the account info and not to my mail
To read your emails you need to come out of Settings and go into the separate Mail app from on your homescreen :
The Settings 'app' is for defining settings for various apps and for the iPad as a whole. -

I keep trying to purchase something in the iTunes Store but it comes up with "Your account is temporarily unavailable" "Store unable to access my account info" But I have checked my account info and everything is up to date.
I have some money from a card still on my account that I would like to use.This has been an issue with some users for close to 24 hours now. I've been getting the error for the last 5 or so hours myself.
Having problems is understandable, it happens. and if this is related to the iCloud hack reported yesterday it is good to know Apple is trying to fix the issue.
But it sure would be nice if there was an official statement from Apple concerning this. -
I changed my email account pw, and now my iphone will not let me to send email stating that name or pw is incorrect - no problem receiving.
You most likely did not change the password in the outgoing mail server section of your email account.
Go to Settings > Mail, Contact, Calendars > your email account > Advanced > Outgoing Mail Server
Re enter the correct user name and password in the outgoing Mail server section even though it may say that these are optional. -
I got a new computer and haven't used iTunes in years. I have an iPod and want to put my music from it onto iTunes on the new computer. I don't remember my old iTunes account info but i have a new apple ID for my iphone and ipad. Is there a way to transfer songs from my iPod (old iPod video) onto the new iTunes on my new computer and use my new apple ID to sign into iTunes?

I purchased a song on itunes and when I play it, it says my computer is not authorized. A window pops to authorize my computer so I type in my account info and hit authorize. After that a window pops up saying it is already authorized but still won't play. None of this happens with any other songs on my itunes. I would just purchase the song again but I can't because every time I try to purchase it, the song says "play" next to it instead of "buy." When I hit play no music plays it just goes back to saying my computer is not authorized so I authorize it and it says it is already authorized then I click it again and it says my computer is not authorized. It's a never ending annoying circle. How can I get the song to play?
If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...
