Need help setting up an email address in Mail

Hi everyone, thanks in advance for any help.
So here's the deal: my dad has an email account that he uses for his company setup in his outlook. A family friend of ours help him set it up. Now he wants to put that same account onto his iPhone. I have the incoming, outgoing server host names etc, and the iPhone shows the account as working, but it doesn't work. Is there any way to just directly copy/clone the setup he has in Outlook to his iPhone?

No, you will not be able to copy the settings.  Check the ports on numbers that you are connecting to.  Also make sure the server meets the requires for iPhone active sync.  http://www.apple.com/iphone/business/integration/

  • HT201320 need help setting up second email address on iphone 4

    I have an Iphone 4 and need to set up a second email address for my business. I have to choose "other" as my emaill address is not through Yahoo, Aol, Gmail, etc. This is where I start having trouble. I have tried several ways to set things up with no luck. Just need someone who knows what they are doing.

    Contact the email provider and obtain the correct settings.
    Then setup the account using those settings.

  • Help setting up BTinternet email with Apple Mail

    Hello everyone,
    I need help setting up a btinternet email account with Apple's Mail sofware. I am setting it up on behalf of my aunt and uncles new macbook pro so I hope i get some solutions quick because Im leaving their place by the end of the weekend and I would love to have their email setup and teach them how to use it. 
    They have 2 btinternet email accounts, the first one they use alot as its their main email account which is currently setup on MS Outlook on their old computer. The secound one they use rarely and its not setup on MS Outlook. 
    Heres the problem, when I setup their main email account with apple mail, I have no problem creating the account however once created the inbox is empty - it does not load previous emails. It can send emails fine, if i send an email to the account using my personal email it will receive it but when I switch off the computer and switch it back on the mail box is empty. So I checked the email account by going to yahoo.co.uk and signing in - again even on the web page the mail box is empty.
    I then setup the second btinternet  email account on Apple Mail shockingly this works perfectly all the old emails got loaded up in mail. So how do I do this for the main account, I know the difference is Outlook mail but I rather not delete that because if it doesnt work then they would lose all their old emails.
    Please help
    Thanks in advance
    PS: ive setup my hotmail and yahoo accounts and they all work fine by the way

    Please guys give me something or any random ideas u may have. im running out of time.

  • I need help resetting my iCloud email address. i have erased all y data to solve a bug problem. I re-entered my email incorrectly; putting hitmail instead hotmail.

    Please help. I had clitch on my iphone. i was advised to reset my phone to factory settings. I successfully erased all the data. when i came to restore the software and back up data on to my phone I accidentally put the wrong email address whilst setting up my iCloud account.

I've tried to erase the data again but I'm prompted to turn of the 'find my iphone' app. i can't do this because it ask for apple I'd; which I can't access because I've entered the wrong email.

  • HT1920 I need help removing my old email address

    I have a new email address and need to remove the old one can you help me with that?

    Assuming that this is for your iTunes account, then on your iPad you can tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and log into the account and you should be able to update your account's primary email address - or you can do it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

    somebody please know something. for some reason apple doesnt want problems to be settled over email and everything has to be fixed over the phone, but i hate calling people and would rather email. so is there a way or do i have to call them?

    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset - which will be by phone as they need to confirm your id and that it's your account
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    You can try contacting them via email via this link, but you might have to wait 24 to 48 hours for a reply, and they then might just tell to you to use the HT5699 link above : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • Need help setting up the Spam Filter in Mail

    Hi,
    I tried so many times to set up my Spam filter in Mac OS Mail, without any success so far. Basically, I have 2 email accounts in Mail, one of them should only let mails through which have "Webmessage from" in their title. So I added the following rule in the Options (translated from German): 'Subject doesn't contain Webmessage from'. Additionally I also added 'Email is Advertisement' and I used 'fulfilling one of the following rules'. What this does, it it filters EVERYTHING and throws it into the junk. I also tried with other rules, as for example 'Sender is in previous receiver' and 'Email is not adressed to my full name', ... Mail just filter everything, everytime or nothing at all.
    Can somebody please help me?

    When you set up a mail filter, you can have multiple conditions before an action is taken. So, for example, if you want a rule to apply to one email address, set up the first condition where the 'to' is equal to the email address you want filtered. Click the plus sign next to it, and add the 'subject doesn't contain Webmessge from' condition. Above the 2 conditions, check 'all' of the following conditions. Then under perform the following actions, add two rules, one mark as read, and two move to junk or trash or wherever. That way, since it's marked as read, you never see it in any unread mail counts. 

  • Need help setting up Comcast email through Exchange

    I'm having trouble setting up my comcast email on my iPhone through the Exchange.  It looks like everything is setup fine.  I've even received some emails on my phone, but then they suddenly disappear and it says I have no mail.  Another person in my office is having the exact same problem.  Comcast Business sent our office an email that they had upgraded from Microsoft Exchange 2007 to Microsoft Exchange 2010.  Any suggestions?

    I have Comcast email through an Exchange account on all of my iDevices. I received the email that the service is going to be upgraded to MS Exchange 2010, but I have not received notice that it has officially changed yet.
    Have you seen this? I don't think that the steps are any different than what they were for MS Exchange 2007, but take a look.

    For mobile device configuration information, please see the mobile device setup articles for iPhone, iPad, Android,BlackBerry or Windows Phone. If after the migration to Exchange 2010 you cannot access your email through your mobile device only, you may need to re-configure your mobile-device access.

  • Need help setting up roundcube webmail in Apple Mail app

    My wife's work uses an email service known as Roundcube for their email which from what I can tell is an IMAP service. She wants to be able to access the email from her Apple Mail app but I am not sure what the setting I should put in are for incoming and outgoing mail server. Does anyone know what these settings would be?
    Thanks
    DJ

    Thanks for the help. It turns out, like you said, that it is a web mail client and that the mail server is justhost.com
    I actually got the incoming mail to work but cannot get it to send. Do you have any experience with this?

  • HOW TO?: Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

    Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

    Any devices connected to the same icloud account can sync all the data on that account.  For this reason an icloud account is really for a single user.
    On a mac, if each user has their own account, then the itunes for that mac account should be set up to connect to that user's icloud account (System preferences>icloud).
