Mail on iPhone and MBP tells me my password is incorrect ...

... but I know it's the correct one.
The Mail server has been changed (to something with a "99" in it).
This is totally strange -- I've used iCloud and MobileMe for a long time, and I've never experienced this problem on every machine.
Is Apple working on some sort of server migration?
The system outage page is pretty useless, because it says everything is fine -- but that info is outdated, and obviously, everything is NOT fine.

i also am unable to get mail from my iCloud account on my iPhone, iPad, Mac Mail.app, or even on the iCloud.com site (mail fails to load). No indication of anything wrong @ http://www.icloud.com/status

HT1430 Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

Is this on wifi or cellular data?
Have you tried a reset? Hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
Have you gone into the email settings and making sure the password are still there?

I purchased the phone in a retail store a few days ago. Am trying to avoid making an appointment and going back. The purchase took 3 hours.

Have you got Settings > General > Restrictions > In-App Purchases set 'off' - that should stop all in-app purchases. And what have you got 'Require Password' set to on the Restrictions screen (I can't remember what version of iOS that setting came in with, so you may not have it) ?

Open the App Store app, go to the Featured pane, swipe to the bottom, tap the Apple ID and sign out. Tap again and sign in with the Apple ID of your choosing.

HT201342 How do you change passwords in email accounts??? Just got new iPhone and no record of previous passwords.....

How do you change passwords in email accounts?? Have new iPhone and no record of previous passwords. Dumb I know but I'm in a real bind.....

See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787. (Your iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.) If you don't have access to your old email account and can't use security question authentication to reset your password, you'll have to do one of the following to turn off Find My iPhone so you can chang the iCloud account on your phone:
If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was. You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so. You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

ITunes and App Store saying my password is incorrect when it isn't?

I have never before had an issues with iTunes or the App Store. However, starting yesterday evening, I went to sign into the iTunes Store on my laptop and it told me my password was incorrect. The same problem occured on my iPhone when I went to download a twitter update.
However, I've managed to sign onto the Apple website in order to post this question with no difficulties? Iv'e waited 24 hours now since my password hasn't been working on both my laptop and iPhone and nothing has changed despite changing my password twice?
If anyone could give me a solution or any ideas on how to fix this it would be very much appriciated!
Tthank you!

Seeing a lot of threads re: imessage being down in the last hour, could be a problem with the Apple server. I would try again later.

Yahoo mail on Iphone and Macbook Pro

Can any one tell me why yahoo! Mail would work on my Iphone and not my new mac book?
The new mail app for OS 10.5.6 should be ready for Yahoo! .
I spent $3000+ why cant it work Every where on the web is saying (Maybe pay for yahoo?, Or get MobileMe.)
All i want is an answer I don't want another E-mail My yahoo Does ALL I want!. Every one i know has mine so don't want the hassle to change it just want to know how to fix it?
Its the same problem everyone's is having!
What do I Do????

Hey there Aspen318
Same issue... but I managed to fix it. I'll try to explain it, if in doubt do ask questions.
Add the yahoo account on to your "Mail" and continue ignoring all the messages that say 'unable to connect'. On the last popping window you will be asked if you want to put the account online/ offline (does'n matter) despite all the 'unable' messages... You do that! Hopefully your yahoo account should be on on the Mail platform, even though is not yet running.
Go to Mail preferences (top bar, top left ). A new window popped out. From the top bar of the new window select ' Accounts' and if you have more accounts there make sure you select the yahoo one. Once selected you should have 7 text boxes , and one check box:
Box 1 Description: [email protected] (e.g. [email protected])
Box 2 Email adress: [email protected] (e.g. [email protected])
Box 3 Full name: Your Name (e.g. John Smith)
Box 4 Incoming mail server: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Box 5 User name: [email protected] (e.g. [email protected])
Box 6 Password : Type in your yahoo password
Box 7 Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): Click it, and then click on Edit server list... Again if you have more accounts make sure you select the yahoo one in the new window. Yo will then see 2 text windows:
Box A) Description Keep that one blank, if there is something in there, just delete it
Box B) Server name : smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk
After all this is done, press ok and close all opened windows, including the 'Mail'.
Last bit is to open 'Mail' and click the Get Mail button on top left corner...
Good luck, let me know how you got on.

Cannot get or send mail using Apple Mail on iPhone and iPad

Everyone in my household cannot get or send mail on their Apple Mail for iPad and iPhone. We all get the same message: "The user name or password for [account] is incorrect." This just started happening yesterday afternoon. No problems before that. I called my hosting company and Apple, and both blamed the other. My Apple system is always updated, so I have the latest version of Maverick. Had no problems with it up until now.
However, I awoke this morning to find downloaded emails in the same program, but when I go to "get mail," it says the same thing, and still won't allow me to send or receive.
Here's the kicker. I also use Gmail with the exact same accounts (yes, I need both since Apple Mail does things that Gmail doesn't, and vice versa). No problem! I get all my emails and can send with no problem. So, my hosting company claims it can't be them (makes sense). It only happens using Apple Mail, and I have several email addresses. None of them work (other than the strange phenomena of suddenly getting some of them downloaded for no apparent reason).
What do I do from here? I've changed passwords, deleted and tried to set up my emails, only to get the message that they probably will not work. And they don't. I have shut down and restarted my iPad and iPhone, to no avail.
Thank god for my Gmail account, or my business would be closed.
Again, this is happening on four devices in my home: 2 iPads and 2 iPhones.

I have a comcast account I use on my phone and use it for receiving and sending mail. When you look at the account in settings, you need to check each of these
incoming mail server: mail.comcast.net
username: the part of your email address before the @
password: your password
outgoing mail server: smtp.comcast.net
Under Advanced
Use SSL: On
Authentication: Password
Server Port: 995
If you cannot make it work from changing settings in the account, delete the account and start over. Use the "Other" setting when starting the account. It is a POP3 account and make the entries I gave you. Once you do that, it should check the entries and validate the account. You shouldn't have any trouble from there. Those settings will work from either the iPhone on cell, or wireless. Mine will even work when I'm at home on my wireless there, which is on the Comcast network.
Hope that helps you.

Different Apple ID's stuck in iPhone and MBP. Also, want to change iTunes account email.

Hi,
I just got my first Macbook Pro (YAY!!), and after fiddling around with it for a couple of days I would like to take advantages of the features of syncing with iCloud in my new hardware and my iPhone 4 (basicly clean up account stuff and enable stuff like Photostream).
I have two Apple ID's.
My [email protected] is used on my new Macbook Pro for iCloud: contacts, calendars, bookmarks, photostream, doc's and data and Find My Mac. It is also used on my iPhone 4 for contacts, calendars, reminders and Find My iPhone.
My [email protected] is used on my Macbook Pro for Mail & Notes, Calendars and Chat. It is also used on my iPhone 4 for iCloud: contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks, photostream, doc's and data and Find My iPhone.
To me it seems like my two Apple ID's are contributing with the same things from multiple sides etc. My hotmail used to be my primary email, but I've changed and started using google's services more (especially mail, notes, contacts and calendar). I would like to remove hotmail as primary mail from my devices and use my gmail account as primary instead, and at the same time of course redirect my visa from my hotmail iTunes account to my gmail Apple ID. I will still add my hotmail to get the mail in my iOS and OSX mail native mail programs, but only as a "secondary" account attachment.
I've been reading about these topics of merging multiple ID's as well as the answer to this question https://discussions.apple.com/message/16400957#16400957 , but I can't figure out where to start and what to do. Can anyone please help me, let me know what to do, in which order or point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Esben
Ps. I've attached a screenshot of my iPhone 4's settings under @Mail, Contacts, Calendar@, hoping it makes it clearer what is on my iPhone, than I were in the text.

How to setup Mail on iPhone and iPad so that thd inbox is identically as on my MacBook

Hi Guys
I have an own business plus private email accounts + my email account for my other job all installed on both my MacBook and my iPhone, and also on the iPad. In the beginning, everything was fine, but now each time I get an email, which I read and delete or put in the right folder, I have to delete it again on iPhone and on iPad.
How can i setup mail mail accounts so that if I read the email on for example the MacBook Mail, and put it in a folder, the email won't show up in the iPhone and iPad inbox? This really would save me a lot of time!
Thanks!
Bob

Can't synchronise mails of iphone and macbook pro

I receive my mails on my iphone and Macbook pro. If I download the mails on my iphone first and I open them, they will not be downloaded on my macbook pro. If I download them on my iphone but I don’t open them they will downloaded on my ibook pro. What do I have to change on my settings in order to have the syncronized?
Thanks

That's normal behavior for a POP3 email account. If your email provider supports IMAP, set the account up as an IMAP account on both the Mac and the iPhone. IMAP supports synchronization between clients and the server. POP3 does not.

I cannot read S/MIME encrypted Mails on iPhone and iPad

I have a Certificate for my email address by Comodo. It is installed in Thunderbird on PC and iPhone and iPad with iOS 7.1.2.
Thunderbird on PC behaves like expected, i can send and read encrypted emails.
On iPad and iPhone i cannot read encrypted emails.
I imported my S/MIME Certificate via email attachment (p.12-File) and activated it in the mail section for my account. I also enabled signature and encryption function.
1. When i receive an email that is signed but not encrypted, the certificate of the sender is trusted & installed.
2. When i receive an email that is encrypted, the same sender is now shown in red color. I cannot read the email, because my profile allegedly does not contain my identitiy.
3. When i try to reply to the signed but not encrypted email (1.) then the message i send is signed but not encrypted, even though the address is shown in blue with a lock (which text info: encryption is possible).
4. When I send an encrypted email to my own account via ipad or iphone, i can read it on both ipad and iphone. This makes me think that the iOS Mail App uses S/MIME encryption a little bit different then Thunderbird.
All of this does not fit together. It think I correctly installed my certificate but there are problems in the Mail Program on iOS.

Solved: the problem was that the emails were encrypted with an old public key.
