My .me mail account name is showing up incorrectly

I know how to fix with gmail. Not sure how to fix with a .me account.
thanks

More information would be helpful. You can try going to iCloud.com, open Mail, click on the gear in the bottom left corner and then select Preferences. You can enter a name there.

Anyone besides me get an annoying popup that cannot be deleted/closed reading: FaceTime Password Please enter your password for "my e-mail account name" Never used FaceTime.

Dear Community,
Anyone besides me get an annoying popup that cannot be deleted/closed reading:
FaceTime Password
Please enter your password for "my e-mail account name"
It happened to me today for the first time since upgrading to Mavericks 10.9.3, no "stop lights" in the title bar of the popup, in fact nothing at all.
I've never established a FaceTime account. So I tried to delete FaceTime from the Applications folder on the "system" disk thinking this may eliminate the popup. Mavericks informed me "Cannot delete FaceTime as it is used by the operating system.
Is this a MAC virus? Or is this an example user community alpha/beta testing that Apple just announced?
TIA,
GonzoBernelli

That being the case, why then did the FaceTime popup even appear in the first place?
It's not clear to me what it is. If it occurs again, please take a screenshot of the popup and post it in a reply.
To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
The screenshot attachment option for this support site appears only on computers - not on iPads.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

HT4796 "Mail Accounts" doesn't show up as option to choose to migrate from XP

I am attempting to migrate files from a WinXP computer to a Mac Mini running Mountain Lion. Almost all files transferred successfully, but it doesn't appear that the Outlook email transferred. In fact "Mail Accounts" doesn't show up as an option to choose in the migration screen. I have done the migration successfully to three other computers, but they were running Lion. Any ideas?

Try rebooting the device. It should be in Settings right under General. You may need to go to Settings<General<Reset<Reset All Settings (don't erase data) and setup as a new device. The iCloud login should appear during this step. Just keep setting it up, then go back to settings and see if the iCloud tab appears.

Mail account name error

I had some problems with an email account in Mail.app so i deleted the account. When i wan't to add a new account and give it the same name the account i deleted had it gives me the message;
Error
You already have an account named:
"xxx".
I tried deleting the .plist file, deleting the Enveloppe Index and reinstalling Mail.app using Pacifist.
It still gives me the error message when trying to use the name i want.
Mail still thinks i have the old account. When opening the GrowlMail preference tab it displays the old account as an option to choose from. Even if it isn't in my accounts list.
Does anyone know some other option to reset Mail in order to get rid of this problem.
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
So, do I understand you right: in Mail's Preferences > Accounts the specific account doesn't show up anymore, but Mail still won't let you create a new account with the same name?
Well, you could check in <your-home-folder>/Library/Mail whether there's a folder labeled after that account. If so, try moving it to the Desktop. Maybe that will convince Mail to let you create the account. If not, you still can move the folder back to where it came from.

Mail account no longer shows

I have 7 e-mail accounts thru ATT/Yahoo.
There all work fine with one minor exception for one mail account.
The new mail (number of e-mails) does not show up in the left hand side Mailboxes in box (bullet)
There are listed when I click into the mail box (listings) with the round blue dot for new mail.
As I stated all the other 6 will snow the round bullet with the number of e-mails
Any suggestions on how to fix it.
Greg

Anyone ?
Am I in the wrong section, is there another web site I can go to ?
Do I need to explain myself better ?
Thanks,
Greg

New personal mail account doesn't show up in 'Mail' iPhone 4 - 7.1.2

I've just bought an iPhone 4.
I've created a new mail account and the mail icon shows 3 messages.
Touching the 'mail' icon brings up the usual list of mail services but my new account doesn't appear.
In 'Settings' my new account is there.
Why doesn't it show up in the 'Mail' list?
I just can't find out how to access/use this account - the user manual is no help.
Help appreciated
David

Additional info.
The new account is a personal account in my own domain.
'Mail' obviously recognises it as it shows the 3 messages

No Mail Shown In Inbox. Mail Accounts Not Now Showing Up In 'Preferences'

Just opened mail to retrieve latest emails. Don't believe that I did anything unusual.Program came up with some message about tracking junk mail and something about a creating a file called "Delivered" and asked whether I wished to see new features!
Had three mail accounts with in and sent mail + .mac account.
Now:
No emails shown in my emails 'Inbox'
Only emails sent via my iphone (.mac account) shown in 'Sent'. No record of emails sent from this computer from three other email accounts.
Shows emails sent and received that are saved in a separate folder.
Preferences now only shows the '.mac' account - No trace of the three others.
What can I do now? Can anyone help please?

Ps - I have pretty much resigned to the fact that I have lost all my mail now but I am curious as to how Mail was running these mailboxes when there doesn't seem to have been any cache or anything for them. I don't understand how this was possible.
And, of course, if I could find this missing folder, maybe I could get all my mail back and that would be great!!!

I am using my e-mail adress with "recent:" in front of my e-mail account name.I have one more than computerand have same mail adress.it is not working now?

The same e-mail address installed on many computers. account name in front of the "recent:" I've added the text. The same could receive mail from different computers at the same time but today it does not work

I can not help you. Gmail offer the service. Thunderbird is an IMAP and POP mail client. it is not a Recent mail client. Gmail offers that service. You have already pointed out it works fine is you use it as a pop client.
I don't care if it works in Outlook, eudora and mac mail. Apparently it does not work in Thunderbird so ask google why not. I read their instructions for this, and I simply can not comprehend the instructions. they are gibberish.

When I click on the mail icon on my iPad 2 the mail accounts do not show up.

iPad 2 32GB Version 8.1.1
When I click on the Mail icon, the mail accounts do not appear. The screen is blank except in the he upper right corner of the screen I can see mini icons: flag, folder, file box, arrow, and pad/pencil mini icon.
I've been having a number of issues with Facebook ever since I upgraded to Version 8, so I don't know if this is a version issue or something else.
I've tried rebooting/restarting, etc. Nada.
I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks.

Close all apps and then reset the iPad. If that does work, reset all settings.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Reset all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again.
FWIW, I don't use Facebook at all, the app or in a browser, but I have read more that a few posts here where people that use the app all the time claim that is very buggy and causes all sorts of problems for them. Maybe closing the app along with the reset will help.

Can I change my icloud mail account name?

Hi, when activated mail on icloud.com I typed wrong username that I wanted to use. Now I have to use alias to people can recognise my when I want to use it. Is there some way to delete my mail account on icloud and create a new one? I tried looking for some solution but a I didnt find any. Please help and sorry for my english I am still learning it.

To change the iCloud ID go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account your data will reappear when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

Mail accounts are not showing up in Mail

I recently migrated my 2011 MBP to a 2013 MBP. I had Mavericks installed on both computers. Everything works fine except that I can't add other mail accounts. I put in my primary email (a GoDaddy account) and my local cable account (Time Warner). When I added my Exchange, iCloud, and Gmail accounts, I do not get any inboxes for them in Apple Mail. I deleted all the accounts, added them back through either mail prefs or accounts, I deleted plist, I restarted in safe mode and ran diagnostics, yada yada. I only get my GoDaddy and Time Warner inboxes eventhough the accounts pane in system prefs says they're all there. Interestingly, I do get calendar information from my exchange account. Also, these mailboxes are still working perfectly fine on my older laptop. Any ideas?

Hi troxelweb,
This is occurring because the 'Administrators' role does not have permission to 'Manage Email Accounts'. If you're able to, log into the admin console > Site Settings > User Roles > Administrators > Permissions, and assign 'Manage Email Accounts' to this role.
If you can't update the permissions, let me know and I will do this on your behalf.

How to configure a mail account "name@apple.fr"

Hi everyone
My girlfriend just created an Apple ID "[email protected]" with password for her iPhone. The iPhone is activated but...
... When she tries to configure "*Mail, Contacts, Calendars*" and creates a new mail account, she doesn't know what to fill in the POP/SMTP fields and neither do I.
Thank You
iBolinex

Thx for the answer
The Apple ID she created is "[email protected]" with a password (sorry, again
After touching Connect in Settings/Store she wrote Apple ID ("[email protected]") and the password. Then it said she had to "verify the ID" by pressing the link given in the mail they sent.
Hope you get all I write!

6.8 gb in my iPhone 5 mail account? Nothing showing. Why?

1/4 of my available gb are tied up in my mail account. Nothing there. How do I reduce this?
Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.

All the space may be tied up with, for example, trash in your email account.
The way to retrieve the space is to restore your iPhone. Plug it in to iTunes, let it sync, then choose "Restore" from the iPhone's summary page in iTunes.
