My new ME icloud email Cannot read email on outloook or thunderbird
Hey guys, sorry for the horrible title.
I installed iOS 5 on my ipad 2 and my 2 iphones today.
Everything is great, except for 1 single issue.
I created my new .me cloud ID and email address.
And I tested my email through all my devices as well as the icloud.com domain and it works flawlessly.
But, as soon as I try and install IMAP settings in my Outlook 2007 or Mozilla Thunderbird client it fails during the connection process and says "username or password incorrect.
Here are my IMAP settings:
imap.mail.me.com port 993
smtp.mail.me.com port 587
SSL is enabled as per Apple.com recommendations.
Username = [email protected]
Password = same password as apple id
Those were the recommended settings from apple. But I just CAN NOT seem to login through any email clients on my PC. It is almost like no password exists in the icloud database for external IMAP connections.
I really need this ability for work so I am hoping someone can help me fast. I plan on forwarding all my email to my new .me email address and using the cloud for everything from now on.
Regards,
Dom
Hey everyone. I did poking around on the IMAP server sides of things and have more information on why things aren't working right. It's a bug on apple's IMAP servers with the AUTHENTICATE command.
More info is on this thread --> https://discussions.apple.com/message/16360598#16360598
It's a bug and its so stupid. AUTHENTICATE PLAIN is required to work in ALL IMAP servers as per RFC 3501 and, of course, it doesn't work here. Arrrghhhhhhhhh

Since I switched to iCloud, I cannot sent emails from my iPhone. Any quick help? I don't have time to go through the Apple web of "Solutions" thanks in advance! Anyone! Thanks.
You can't send emails? Do you receive an error message when you try to send them? Have you done ANY troubleshooting on the device at all? If you don't have time to try things yourself, it will almost certainly take longer to try it in here.

After ios 7.0.3 cannot read email
Have the 4S - downloaded ios 7.0.3 and now cannot read email or attachements. What is 'mime'? I can SEE the email but when i open it there is no content. HELP I use my phone for work and this is killing me.
My problem resolved itself overnight. I'm guessing it was just overloaded servers from everyone downloading the ios update and Mavericks.
Good lick on your issue but I don't have a solution to that one other than perhaps time for it to sort itself out. Good luck.. -
When I open iPhoto 9.2.1 it says that my library needs to be upgraded but when I upgrade the library I am trying to open (33 GB worth of pictures from 2006) the new application says it cannot read the files and how to find them on the system to reimport?! and then I'd like to erase the original files since the space requirement is huge!!!! Why is upgrading software iPhoto such a pain. I've gotta get a presentation done and all I get for my money is roadblock!!!
hello, it sounds like the library is damaged.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. -

Hello,
I have an Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bits on an AIX 5.3 mainframe without the enterprise web interface.
I would like to do that process :
a daily email is sent to the oracle instance with a CSV in attachment.
I would like that attachment in a directory configured onto the instance.
I have a PL/SQL procedure triggered by a job that will insert the content of the CSV in a table.
Is that process possible with what I have ?
Thanks in advance,

Just updated to the new 4.0 on my 3.0 system on Saturday.
On Monday I noticed I can't read my email. The email will download and I can read the first 2 lines (or 3, 4, 5 lines if I change it in my settings), but when I click on the actual email to view it, there is nothing there.
I have tried deleting my email account from my phone and setting it up again, but that hasn't worked either.
Is there something I am missing?found an answer through searching through some other questions!

Mail:Cannot read emails in server
No error messages. Doctor connects. I can send emails. I cannot get emails off server to apple mail. I can see (subject titles from Pop3 server) and delete emails from "account information". All this after account name change. 25 hours and no progress made. Please help. grayfish
What’s the problem exactly? Is it that Mail doesn’t check for mail on this account, or that it checks but downloads nothing, or what?
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
Could it be that the account is in an “offline” state? Is the Mailbox > Go Online command enabled or disabled?
Open Window > Activity Viewer and tell Mail to check for mail on this account. What do you see Mail doing there?
Do the messages that Mail doesn’t download but show up in the Account Info window appear as already downloaded or as not downloaded yet (dot column)?
All this after account name change.
Not sure what you mean here. Could you please elaborate? -
Cannot read emails signing in via Verizon Webmail, using Outlook Express or Windows Live Mail works.
I've been experiencing a problem viewing emails online on my Laptop Sony Windows 7 and on a desktop XP Professional we own. I can login to my account(s) individually online, but the email area is blank and trying to look at the Email & More fails to display anything.
I have reloaded Java, Adobe Flash & Reader. w/o results. I am not experiencing problems with anything else.
I have tried on SEVERAL occasions to call in for Verizon Tech Support , but have given up each time after spending from 1 to 3 hours holding for someone to pick up. It doesn't seem to matter time of day on the calls.
Ideas or help would really be appreciated.

Look at other threads. Verizon knows it has a Webmail problem and is working on it. As you said there is no email problem as email clients work.
This doesn't belong in this thread or forum. -
TS3276 Cannot read email content in Mail using MacBook Pro
I am not able to read my email messages most of the time. I can only see the header section. I have tried getting out of Mail and then getting back in and sometimes this allows me to read my emails. My email service provider is Gmail. I can read my emails through my Gmail account on the web but not in Mail.
Rebuilding didn't help, then you say: The problem seems to have been resolved...
Is it ok or not? Sorry, but it's a little confusing.
Easy way to check your internet connection ...
Open System Preferences > Network
Click Assist Me > Diagnostics
Select the configuration on the right.
If any buttons are red, click Continue.
I just noticed that your profile indicates your Mac has v10.7.2 installed.
If that is the case, updating your system software may help the connection issue.
Click Software Update from the Apple menu.
The most recent version for Lion is v10.7.5

Re: red X when sending email, cannot receive email
Dear Frankie S:
I too have a Toch 9800 and cannot receive emails on my device (no problem getting them on my laptop). (in addition to not being able to send some text messages). However, I can't even get into the Setup - Email Account application to try to resend a service book (whatever that is). I get the following message: "Your device had a problem connecting to the server." I'm thinking this is due to the fact that the "Service Status" screen shows that I'm not even connected to the Blackberry Internet Service, but I don't recall that I manually disconnected it. (I don't use the BB Enterprise Service.) How can I reconnect to the BB Internet Service? is this a phone issue or a service provider issue?
Coincidentally, for some reason, my device stopped automatically connecting to my home wi-fi network when the device reactivates in the morning. I have to connect by choosing it from the list of Saved Wi-fi Networks. Any idea why this is happening?
My mobile network connection to AT&T is fine.
Please help!

My new MacAir with Lion cannot read some accented letters in "Times".
My new MacAir with MacOSX 10.6.8 cannot read some accented letters in "Times".
No problem with "Times New Roman" and other fonts, but all my old files in Times are difficult to read. Also, many internet pages display texts in Times and I read them all with this trouble.
It happens above all with agrave à and acircumflex â. What happens? How can I read the letters correctly?
I try to join a sample:
Thanks to anybody who can help me!Most preferences automatically unlock for the admin user. Were you logged in on a standard or managed account with no rights to change preferences, then the panels would be locked for those users. Security and Accounts remain locked to prevent access when the admin user has left the computer unattended. This prevents any serious security breach.

Do I have to buy a new duo processor lap top to continue getting my email using my mac.com address? Do i have to give up my mac.com email address and go to another provider?
It's the System which counts rather than the hardware. Your signature says you have 10.6.8. You can migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud at http://me.com/move even with Snow Leopard - when asked to confirm that you have Lion on your Mac, just lie and say 'yes'.
If you have MobileMe mail set up to collect mail from external POP accounts you should cancel this before migrating, or you may find it still working in iCloud (where it isn't supposed to) and with no way of stopping it. You may find the MobileMe email settings will continue to work for a time after migrating but it will stop eventually so you should not rely on this. You should delete your MobileMe email account from Mail.
You can then set up Mail manually in Snow Leopard to access iCloud email; it's a slight fudge because the 'wizard' will attempt to connect you to MobileMe as soon as you enter an @me.com address. The process, which includes a workaround for this, is described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmail.html
You may be able to sync your calendars to iCloud by means of an unsupported hack, and there is a convoluted hack which has been reported as working for Address Book (and as not working by others - I've not tried it), but iCloud's other facilities will not work. This page outlines the situation when you migrate to iCloud, including a link to the calendar hack:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL.html
There are a couple of third-party solutions which may be of interest.
BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. A single user licence (two machines allowed) is $49.99.
Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.
(I have no connection with either firm.) -
Grandson and friend just reset system several times and now neither can remember which email account or password was used to set up the ICloud account. I try to set up the account for him again and receive the message that no more accounts are available. I cannot reset because just like them, I don't know what they used. Surely, there must be some way to wipe out their settings and start fresh again?
