Mail no notification and no iCloud sync

Mac Lion 10.7.2 and Ipad IOS 5.01. Both in Icloud with mail. Not all the mails do come in the Mail on the Ipad. And new mails on the Ipad don't give a notification. Can anybody tell me what I do wrong ?

You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

I have a new Iphone 4 and tried iCloud syncing. I now have a white screen and cannot turn the phone off. i did not download iTunes so I cannot perform a restore facility through iTunes. What can I do please?

I have upgraded from a 3gs and first backed up by 3gs through iCloud. I then logged on to iCloud on my new device and it synced my contacts. I entered my email addresses and then tried to download some of my App purchases. The screen then went white and I cannot now shut down the phone although I am hearing new emails coming through. I think I should have downloaded iTunes first but didn't which means iTunes does not recognise the phone and I cannot therefore restored to factory settings to start again. Help please.

Has the phone been unlocked officially? Has the phone been jailbroken in the past? If yes, these could be reasons for the behavior of the phone.

HT1688 Changing tone of mail in notification and sounds settings?

I changed my 2 mail accounts to have different tones in the notifications in settings and now I can't change one tone to a different one or even turn it off completely. Sounds in settings doesn't work either.
Does anyone know or have the same problem? I'd hate to have to delete one account, just to add it back on again and risk losing info.

I want to turn off Documents and Data iCloud syncing (in Sys Prefs on iMac) but it insists on deleting all docs from my iMac! HELP!

I don't want to sync my 'Documents and Data' with iCloud any more (iMac, iPhone and iPad). When I go into iCloud in System Prefs and try to uncheck the Documents and Data box it tells me 'all docments stored in iCloud will be deleted from this Mac'. Really need to keep all my docs and quite shocked that iCloud would even consider deleting them from my iMac. Does anyone know any way round this other than backing everything up and restoring it after it's been deleted? Thanks!

Hi doodlebuglondon. I understood you throughout the thread as I have the same situation. I turned it on, then decided immediately to turn it back off. It then gives you the scary warning, assuming you understand under what circumstances documents got stored in the iCloud. Like you, I had no idea. But I did see 5 GB of 5GB available on iCloud Storage, which was a hint. So I opened a folder with some Pages documents, turned off Documents & Data, clicked the big scary "Delete from Mac" button. If it had really deleted my iWorks documents, like you, I would have had to restore perhaps 40 or 50 disparate folders. Whew!
Did it work out OK for you? I note you were very clear in pointing out you hadn't actively put anything in iCloud, but who knows whether Apple magically puts stuff in iCloud for you. I couldn't find that explained anywhere in Apple's "instructions", but I'm sure it's buried in there somewhere.

TS3899 Isses sending mail through yahoo and also iCloud. Apple says its a conflict w/ yahoo, but I have the issues w iCloud a well. Why?

Difficulties sending mail. Especially when graphics are attached.... Extremely slow or not at all. I can receive just fine
Apple says its a conflict w/ yahoo, but I have the same issues with iCloud. Why?

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")

E-mail on Phone and Desktop not synced?

I have a 4S IPhone. I noticed that whenever I check an e-mail on my phone, that e-mail isn't being marked as read/deleted, etc. when I check my e-mail on my desktop. So, everytime I go into my e-mail on my desktop, I think I have tons of e-mail I need to address when in reality I have already replied/deleted/checked via my phone. Why is this? What do I do to correct his so that my desktop account and Iphone account are connected?
Thanks!

What type of email account is it? POP, IMAP, Exchange?
Without details, nobody can help.

What's going on with mail, adress book and the iCloud in Mt.Lion?

I am having troubles here since updating to Mt.Lion that are quiet annoying. Mail is not able to read adresses anymore from adress book. Usually if I type in a letter in the adress line, if would show me the adresses starting with this letter. Not anymore... just an annoying spinning wheel.
I remember that I said "YES" when iCloud asked me, if I want to put my adresses in the iCloud right after the update to Mountain Lion. Maybe that was a mistake. But even after putting back all adresses in "local" it doesn't work.
Any ideas? Anyone with same experinces?
Thanks for your help.

Here is the latest update from Apple for anyone who is interested:
FWIW, the percentage shown has increased since yesterday.
My totally wild guess is that they are doing some sort of server overhaul ahead of the announcements everyone is waiting for today. All I will say is that I am glad I don't rely on it.

Strange new Mail behavior in Lion after iCloud implementation

I never use Apple Mail, I only use Gmail through my browser.
However, after getting an iPhone and installing iOS 5 on that, and enabling iCloud, the Apple Mail icon now bounces in the dock a few times a day, as if something is making it want to launch (even though I have never launched it on purpose).
Since the timing of this seemed iCloud-related, I searched through the settings I thought most likely to cause this, and none of them are enabled, but maybe I missed one. If so, can someone please tell me where that setting might be?
I looked in System Preferences->Mail, Contacts & Calendars and the 'iCloud' account syncs the following, which all have checkmarks: Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Photostream, Documents & Dtaa, and Find My Mac. However, the one that might affect this, "Mail & Notes", is not checked.
Similarly, in System Preferences->iCloud, the same boxes are checked as listed above, and "Mail & Notes" is NOT checked.
What am I missing here?

If you want to download random stuff from anywhere, or if you need or want to let your patches fall behind, or if you're going load whatever a pop-up or advert or drive-by package or toolbar that somebody wants to load, clicking on stuff in random mail messages (including fake invites, fake shipping reciepts, lottery announcements, etc), yes, you might consider loading an add-on tool.
OS X ships with Xprotect support enabled, and this can and has been used to lock down components (such as the Java JVM plug-in) when something nasty is loose.
The OS X Server variant ships with anti-malware tools — ClamAV — that can scan mail and related storage, and which can mitigate malware for OS X as well as for other platforms.
But anti-malware and anti-virus add-ons? In general, not needed IMO.
Recent attacks have targeted Flash and Java, and these are easily mitigated.
To avoid any need for anti-malware tools, keep your patches current, keep the Java JVM plug-in disabled in your web browsers (or don't install Java) and use a Flash blocker (or deinstall Flash) in your browser, don't download any stuff you didn't go looking for, pick gonzo passwords, have good backups and preferably a copy that can be offsite and disconnected, use a gateway-firewall, use sftp and not ftp, and all the rest of the usual advice applies...
There's no panacea: an anti-malware tool probably won't protect you from a wholly new attack or from what's called an advanced persistent attack, nor from spearphishing, either. So you still have to watch what you're doing.
The cure can be a problem, too: anti-malware tools work by doing the same sorts of things as the malware wants to do, insinuating itself into low-level corners of the OS, but attempting to detect and block the malware. The act of connecting into the OS can potentially cause problems for the "host" OS, just as malware can corrupt and crash a system.

Mail 4.6 and Exchange 2010

I have a users using 10.6.8 and Mail 4.6 and when he syncs to our Exchange 2010 Server he gets his mail to June 16th but thats it. I have made use EWS is enabled and have trashed the mail.plist and all mail folders from ~/Libarary/Mail. I have also rebuilt his mailbox to no avail. I am now out of ideas.. He is now getting his mail via OWA. Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks,

I've this problem too. Please help.

I just rebuilt my mail inbox, 1 iCloud account and 2 other imap accounts, and everything is gone. Nothing on the remote servers either and on all my iCloud sync mobiles. How can i recover all my emails? Thanks

we do what your doing... we use the same ID for "Icloud".
We do NOT use the same ID for: Face time and Imessage

I upgraded to Mt. Lion and now I have duplicates in notes and contacts on my iPhone 3gs. Is this a sync issue? I have 4 e-mail accounts and the iCloud is one of them.

Maybe my title says to much. I have multple contacts, notes, sometimes just two, sometimes 14. I upgraded to Mt. Lion and that may be an issue or maybe syncing is the issue. It is making me crazy/er! I have 4 e-mail contact lists and that may be part of the issue with e-mail but why duplicate notes? I am stumped. Please give your thoughts for a solution. I have deleted the duplicates from iPhone (3gs, iMac, and iPad2).
Thanks,
Jim

I forgot to say that the duplicate entries return after I have deleted them. Strange to me is why do some contacts show up as many as 14 times. I am suspecting that there could be an issue with iCloud or iTunes. Truly a mystery to me for now.

I have imported contacts from Outlook to Mail and they have synced via iCloud to my iPhone 3GS. I can't get my iPhone to make a call using these contacts but if I dial the number of any of the contacts on the keypad, the call DOES work! Help me please!?

Help me please - is there something I need to do to the contacts because tehy came from Outlook? Thanks

Thank you for replying. Yes I deleted the old email address..

Mail and iCloud Sync stopped working

Hi Everybody,
This is a really strange problem. My mail just stopped receiving emails including my icloud emails and other web accounts (on my macbook pro and my iphone). Furthermore notes and contacts are not syncronized betwen devices anymore.
I can access my icloud mails through the webportal. If I add an IMAP account to mail for my other mail accounts it also works. But the pop3 accounts and the icloud account in mail just stopped receiving mail. I can send out mails.
I have tried the regular troubleshoot advices but nothing worked.
Can anybody help me? Thanks.

I tried it all. Didn't work.
I also do have the same problem as described here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21993223#21993223.
The iCloud mail configuration from within System Preferences > iCloud does not work. I can tick Contacts and Notes but the sync does not work either.
Really not sure what to try next.

My outlook mail is not turned on for sync on the iCloud control panel. Everything else is and syncs fine. What am I doing wrong?

There is no Mobile Me in my control panel. JIK I checked in my program uninstaller and there is no Mobile me installed. Like I said, I don't recll using it...

Can someone tell me if there is a way to sync address book, calendar and mail ONLY, no music from Itunes to Iphone 4s from my Imac G5, OS 10.5.8? I bought a 16 GB and have too much music and no icloud on my machine (or my ipod 5th gen)

I was told I CANNOT only sync part of my music from my Imac Itunes, and since I have an ipod and itunes with the music, I don't really need it on my iphone, but if I sync all the rest, is it going to sync the music too! It is too much data if it does!! And did Icloud take the place of "mobile me". If so can that be used to get some music if I want to from my hard drive mac or ipod?

You were told wrong. You can sync only what you want to sync.
Yes, iCloud is taking place of Mobile Me over time. MM will be turned off in June of next year.
With iCloud, you can store the music in the cloud and download the tracks that you want to listen to without having to sync to your iTunes.
