My iCloud information gone from Mail...

Hi all! This all started when I had an error message from Carbon Copy Cloner that my backup hadn't worked so I went into the application and set it all up (again) and set up the schedule I wanted. I also indicated that I wanted to get an email if errors occurred... This is where my issue began.
In the past, over the course of a couple of years, when I selected this option in CCC the only email address I was able to choose was my Comcast email address which wasn't a huge deal so I just used that one. Today when I set up the schedule in CCC I saw that my iCloud email address was listed. Great, I thought. Well, when I selected that option I noticed that the smtp was comcast.net and my user name was for my Comcast account and not for my iCloud account-it should have been the Mac smtp not Comcast and the user name should have been different. So I went into Mail and looked at my Preferences. Sure enough I have 2 accounts in Mail-one iCloud and one Comcast. The iCloud one has Comcast as my Outgoing Mail Server and the TLS Certificate is None. If I go to the Advanced tab my Authentication is set as Apple Token. So it's set up all wrong! I can change it but why did it change???? I certainly didn't change it. AND I am getting mail in my iCloud account just fine. At least I think so.
The only thing that I changed lately is that in my Contact app I had a duplication of all my contacts and went into Preferences and noticed I had 2 iCloud accounts. I disabled one. Now I only have each contact listed once. Is that what messed up the setup in Mail?
I am running Mavericks, latest update. I am puzzled and perplexed. I appreciate any help I can get with this. Thank you so much, Judy

Hi, if you change the sound in Mail>Preferences, does the new sound work for awhile?

  • Icloud folders gone from mail after upgrade to Mavericks

    Before upgrading to Mavericks, I had an Icloud folders displayes in the mailboxes setion of mail.   After upgrading, they are no longer there.
    Any ideas?

    Same thing for me too.  Late 2012 13" MBP Retina.  I have to unplug the Thunderbolt cable and plug it back in.
    This has only started for me in the last two days.  The first two weeks of Mavericks was ok.
    Update:  I just got back from a trip.  I was using the laptop separate from the Thunderbolt display.  I hadn't restarted since I returned and connected the monitor.  I've just rebooted, and put the computer to sleep.  After resuming from sleep, the display is ok.  Maybe try rebooting?  I'll update if it continues.

  • ICloud account disappears from Mail preferences

    In Mail preferences my iCloud account didn't seem to be working so I deleted it, logged into iCloud, selected 'Mail and Notes' and the Mail account was recreated.  After signing out of iCloud the account disappeared from Mail preferences.  Why?

    So, then, do you recommend that I remain "signed in" to iCloud all the time on both my desktop and my laptop so that the iCloud account always appears in the Mail application?  Or should I "sign in" to iCloud periodically to see if I have mail in my iCloud account or, alternatively, access mail in the iCloud account through iCloud.com?
    The old MobileMe mail account was always present in the Mail application unlike the iCloud mail account.

  • HT4859 backed up iphone to icloud, notes gone from iphone

    I backed up my iphone 4s to icloud yesterday and now all the notes I had on my iphone are not there anymore.  They show up in my mail but not on my phone. Why did this happen, how can I keep it from happenining, and how can I restore my notes to my iphone?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you stop your back up, it will leave an incomplete back up in your iCloud storage allocation which you would need to remove from settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage. It will not however affect anything on your phone.
    The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
    What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • All iCloud data gone from phone?

    My phone is connected to my iCloud account (I double checked in settings) yet all my iCloud data is gone.  My notes are all deleted, all my calendar events are gone, and I am unable to add new calendar events.  I have important events stored on there that I need access to.
    Also, i'm assuming this is connected to the issue, the calendar app on my macbook won't even open.  I click on it and nothing happens.  Notes seems to be working fine thoguh on my computer.
    Any ideas how to fix this?

    On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud. Make sure all your settings are switched ON.
    On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud. Deselect the box next to Calendars then reselect it.
    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.

  • Folder in Library but Gone from Mail Interface

    Dear Folks:
    I use .Mac.
    I had a folder called "John" in my Inbox in Tiger Mail.
    Not sure how, but it no longer appears alongside my other folders in the Mail application.
    Stangely, when I go to User/Library/Mail/Mac-My.Mac_Account I see it:
    John (this has "x".imapmbox folders for all the John subfolders)
    John.imapmbox (this has the info.plist and "messages folder" with lots of .emix files)
    It seems like everything is in place, but I don't know how to make those messages part of my Mail app again.
    Please help!

    Hello Raoul.
    I had a folder called "John" in my Inbox in Tiger Mail.
    This doesn’t make sense. A .Mac account’s Inbox shouldn’t have any subfolders.
    Report the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/ folder.
    In order to post the exact file names and avoid typing mistakes, proceed as follows. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. With that folder open, if you’re looking at it in View > as List mode, first collapse any expanded folders so that the Finder only shows the files and folders at the first level of ~/Library/Mail/. Now, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post.
    Before actually posting that information, you may edit it so that the file/folder names do not reveal any details you wish to keep private, e.g. you may replace any real username with “username” to hide your real email address if you wish. Try to be consistent in how you disguise those details, though, as we may need to refer to them in subsequent posts.
    Report also the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/Mac-username/ account folder. Again, you may disguise any mailbox names you wish to keep private.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • Updated to mavericks and now my RSS feeds are gone from Mail. How do I get them back?

    Where are my RSS feeds?

    You can't get back your RSS feeds. OS X Mountain Lion removed RSS compatibility from Safari and Mail, so you can't use RSS with these applications.
    Now, if you want to use RSS feeds, you need to use an app like NetNewsWire. There are also other applications

  • Where has the song information gone from the mini player?

    I also hate the new iTunes 11. I could probably get along with its user unfriednlyness if they'd left the mini player alone. I like to keep this on top of my other windows so I know what's playing and how long a song has left to go. The new version removes this useful information in favour of a uselss mini LP cover that's too small for anyone to see. Does anyone know if there's way of getting back to the previous version without reverting back to iTunes 10. I tried this but it wouldn't let me because its linked iTuines with OS X.
    I\'ve never complained about an upgrade before but this looks like it was put together by a bunch of idiots.

    The new miniplayer also shows songinfo, but shows the playback controls on mouse-over (and hides song info) However! If you have one of the controls 'selected' (blue highlight) then the songinfo won't come up anytime. Try selecting the miniplayer and pushing TAB a few times.
    Probably because you have this selected: (old screen, but same option)

  • ICloud gone from Internet Accounts... stuck!

    iCloud has got me by the neck. I have been ignoring warning signs for months, pretending that my three Macs, plus an iPad, were properly syncing — but I was disregarding the appearance of unwarranted duplicate entries in my Mac Contacts app (for example). And I knew that mail deleted from my iPad Mail app was not being deleted (synced) with my Mac Mail inbox.
    But the real cockup came when I changed my iCloud password (from my iPad), and suddenly my Mac lost access to its iCloud mailbox. From my Mac’s System Preferences > iCloud, I tried to sign in with my new password, but that failed, with the advice: “[email protected] is already signed in to iCloud. To use this Apple ID as your primary iCloud account, delete it from Internet Accounts and sign in again.”
    So, from my Mac’s System Preferences > Internet Accounts pane, I selected iCloud  (on the right side, not the left), and clicked the minus ( - ) button, to delete it. This removed iCloud from the list of accounts on the left.
    Then, selecting iCloud on the right, a “Sign in” window appeared, asking for my Apple ID and password “to set up iCloud on this computer.” Entering this data, a new window appeared, advising me, “Already signed in as [email protected] This iCloud account already exists.”
    And that is as far as I can get.
    • iCloud is gone from the Internet Accounts pane;
    • I am being told that I am already signed in;
    • Mac Mail no longer retrieves Incoming email;
    • My Apple ID and password do not give me access to iCloud.
    I’m stuck. Any ideas?

    After Restarting my Mac, I entered my Apple ID and (new) password in the iCloud section of System Preferences. This brought up the Internet Accounts section, where I was able to select the iCloud option, and enter my Apple ID and PW a second time.
    My first (and current) Apple ID was (and remains) [email protected] — although it appears in Mail > Preferences > Account Information with the Alias [email protected] (and indicates, in greyed type, that the Email Address for this account is [email protected]
    I do have 2 or 3 other (older) Macs, plus an iPad, which are registered with my original Apple ID: [email protected]
    I do not have any other iCloud account. Just the one, with two versions of the same default email address.

  • HT5527 Hello, I had 25Go transfered from MobileMe, skimmed down to 5Go now. I cleaned my emails. From mail, on my mac, 'get account information' shows less than 1 Go... From System preferences/iCloud, up to yesterday it showed 12Go... I don't understand!

    I don't understand!
    These information are contradctory. Now my account is locked.
    What Am I supposed to do???
    thanks for your help!

    Well as far as I can tell the only developed alternative to Apple is Microsoft, sure you want to go there?
    iCloud (and Mobile Me before it) are consumer level systems, working correctly they are a poor choice for business use, if you want to stay all Mac try Zimbra if you can let a little Microsoft in the mix use Microsoft Exchange (Mail, iCal & Address Book are compatible as clients), hosted Exchange systems cost about $10 per month.
    Or try to fix what is wrong with your installation (which is clearly not running as it should)

  • Calendar information other than iCloud is not showing in Notification center from Mails such as Gmail, Exchange, Yahoo

    Hi,
    After iOS 6 update on iPhone 4S I'm unable to see any information on Notification Center regarding any calendar information from mail boxes such as Gmail, Yahoo, Exchange server etc. But, calendar information is available only from iCloud mail box.
    Please help me to get the calendar information in Notification center from mail boxes other than iCloud too.
    Regards,
    Srini

    Read thier own support document on the subject then
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1795
    This document was written as an answer to all those who complained about it as paying MobileMe users
    They ignored us then and when MobileMe became iCloud they ignored us again, and just carried on with a system that will not update the e-mail read status across all devices
    That's how it works,   and like you 1000's of loyal Apple users cant believe it either but there you go

    Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
    Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

    Welcome to the Apple Community shorter woman.
    If you were using iCloud on your phone and have deleted them they have gone from everywhere. Did you have a back up and if so where.

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
