New email account

I am trying to set up a new email account with ATT. It is not working. I've done this before for someone else but I cannot get it working on mine.
I no longer have mobileme (.mac)
I am following the instructions but I am getting a warning right out of the gate. It is telling me that I need to check my user name and password because pop is not finding my account. Can anyone please help me. ASAP.
Thanks,

Well I found out how to do it. If you already have an ATT account and this is for a second computer then you must register with the primary account as a sub. Follow the instructions and then you should be able to do a new ATT email account.
I actually did this with a rep on their chat line. It worked.
Good luck.

HT4436 How can I transfer my odl family pack email to new iCloud id? Or add a new email account (not an alias) to my main icloud id?

I had a family pack but now I am not able to reach my son's email account. How can I find and transfer it? Or how can I open a new email account for my son through my icloud id. Actually it seems as if there is an oprating email account under his name but e-we cannot receive any emails or cannot reach the account settings...

Each sub-account of a MobileMe Family Pack should have been individually migrated to iCloud before August 1st last. Assuming that you didn't do this, you should be able to reactivate the address (though not retrieve its previous contents) by signing in with it in System Preferences>iCloud and enabling Mail - your son should do this on his own Mac or his own user account if he is using your Mac. It's not clear whether he will be able to reactivate the @me.com version or only get an @icloud.com version. (It would be useful to know, when he tries it.)
If he did migrate the account to iCloud then signing in in the same way should retrieve the contents and the @me.com address should work.
Alternatively he can just create a new Apple ID (for which he will need a new non-Apple email address) if he doesn't already have one, and sign in with that, enabling Mail and choosing a new @icloud.com address.
You should note that in none of these cases does his account have anything to do with yours (there is no need for a Family Pack equivalent in iCloud as it's free at basic level).
You could add an email alias to your account, but it's not a good idea as it will mix his emails up with yours and he won't be able to detach it later.

How do i set up a new email account

I'm trying to set up a new email account. When I open preferences/new account, and put in my name, a new email address and password, my mail program just turns on the beachball and says it's not responding. Not sure what to do.

It's an iMac (Intel), and yes it is a G5. I'm not a techie, but pretty sure Intel makes it a G5.
Anyway, I guess you know what the add account box looks like in Mail. The top window automatically has my full name in it. In the email address window (the new account I want to set up), I put in the new email name I want - for example, [email protected] Then I put in the password for my .me account that I know works because I can sign in and access my stuff. When I hit the create button, I get the spinning beachball, and eventually, when I do the three-finger salute to force quit, I see that mail is not responding.

How do I get a new email account to show in accounts and mailbox list

I have added a new email account to my iPod OS5 but I can't access it. It doesn't show up in my mailbox or account list. How do I ge this new account to show up in these lists so that I can access the account?

I tried a reset and it didn't help. I have already added one gmail account and it shows up in both my "inboxes" and "Accounts" list. Still can't access my second gmail account. When I try to add the new gmail account again, I get the message that this account has already been created. I have deleted the account and added it again with the same problem resulting. Any other suggestions?

On your Mac, try to access your gmail account. There should be a link you click for "Forgot My Password". Click it and try to retrieve your password.

Calendars can be synced with either vCal or EAS accounts such as Google or Microsoft accounts. You can't link or sync a calendar with a 'regular' POP or IMAP mail account.

Cannot add a new email account, and hence icloud account. When i go into Settings - Mail, accounts, calendars, the option to add a new account cannot be clicked (ghosted). I also have iCloud Settings ghosted (unclickable). Cannot change in itunes also.

Cannot add a new email account, and hence i have no way of creating an iCloud account (very frustrating). I had the same problem with iOS 4.3 but i had no email account to create as i set both up when i bought the iPhone 4. After adding a company email and a gmail account (both wok perfectly) i noticed that the option to create more email accounts had been ghosted (unclickable). This didn't worry me at the time. However, iCloud needs me to create one in here so i can access the cloud which i desperately want the ability to do. When i go into Settings -> Mail, accounts, calendars, the option to add a new account cannot be clicked (ghosted). I also have iCloud in the iPhone Settings ghosted (unclickable). I have same problem in itunes on Mac OSX. Surely restoring isn't the solution as i restored my iphone when changing from iOS 4.3 -> 5. Please help?

Go to
Settings,
General,
Restrictions, type in your Restriction Password,
Accounts, tick Allow Changes.
Press the back key a few times till you're back in Settings, you should see iCloud is now highlight able, now go to Mail Contacts and Calenders and add your email account as per norm.
Hope this helps.

After the iOS 8.0 update, our iPads with profile to restrict the modification of account settings, allows the creation of new email accounts!

We have hundreds of iPads 4 rollout to external sales forces. We used Apple Configurator to supervised them and on the top we deployed thru a MDM system the restriction profile to Disallow modifying account settings.
After updating some iPads to iOS 8.0 we found out that the restriction "Disallow/Allow modifying account setting" works different compared to iOS 7. Now in iOS 8 it is posible to create new email accounts.
Behavior in iOS7 (with supervised mode) :
- This restrictions profile disabled the possibility to add, modify or delete email accounts from the Setting menu.
- The EMAIL app is blocked popping up a warning message that a creation of an email account is restricted.
Behavior in iOS8.0 (with supervised mode) :
- This restrictions profile disabled the possibility to add, modify or delete email accounts from the Setting menu.
- Using the EMAIL app shows the standard options to create a email account: iCloud, Exchange, Google, etc. and let the user store the account.
- In Settings the new Email account ist available, but without the permissions to modify or delete them
Does somebody experienced the same issue? Did you find a workaround?
Do anybody knows, if their is a fix on this issue in iOS 8.0.1?

Today we updated to the device to iOS 8.0.2, but we have see the same behavior: EMAIL app is not protected to create new email accounts.

I have 2 new email accounts added to my Imac. How do I get them to appear on the macbook and my iPhone. The computers are with maverick and the iPhone has the latest iOS 7.0.3. Thanks

How to set a new email account for iCloud?

How set a new email account for iCloud?

There are two separate things you can do.
You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account, and if it has @mac.com or @me.com versions these cannot be reinstated once deleted.
More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
Or if you want a completely separate account you will have to create a new iCloud account and sign into it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars. Note that any one device can create only three iCloud accounts.

Can't add any new email account - Bug with Ios 6.1.3?

For unknown reason, I can't add any new email account, I get stuck with when I have entrered my email address and password. In fact, the system says " checking" but nothing is happening. Do you have any idea?
Somebody proposed me to reset Safari which I did with same result.
I have two Iphone and 1 Ipad and I have exactly the same problem on all of them.

I finally found the reason, it was linked with my email suffix which was a shorten version. When I put the long one, my email address has been recognized. The strange things is the fact, I have set up earlier the same account in pop instead of imap without any issue. I need to fight with the server name too as my standard incoming server was not recogized on imap (no reason as it works with other system). However, I found my way and it works.
Thank you for your help. Maybe my demand will help somebody else.

Can't create new email account.

I can't create new emails account because when I go to Setting and click in Mail,Contacts ,calender, it goes back to home, intead of open the options. Any advice? Thanks
Julio

Double tab the home button and when the application button shows up hold the settings icon until you see a red dot in the corner and hit that.
If that dosent work then try restarting the device. Hold the lock button (top right of iPad) until slide to power off appears then hit the same button to get it back on.
To actually make an email account you have to go to the providers web page, you can't create one in settings

Issue when creating a new email account on Adobe BC

Hi,
I got a big issue when I tried to create a new email account for my site, which is a very email account to me, and I had been using that email address for over 10 years.
Here is the issue, When I created this email account, Adobe BC keep telling me that account has been created (please see the screen shots below), but I did not see this email account on the BC's backend email account list at all. I tried to create that email for over dozen times, it just won't work!
Please anyone who can help me on this, or anyone from Adobe BC tech support team, please contact with me. Becasue I having hard time finding your tech support telephone numeber.
Thank You.

Hello designonly.
You are saying that you have been using that email address for over 10 years. So you are trying to make an address which already somewhere exists?
That brings me to another thing - is the DNS setup made well? In order to make email address work, you should edit the A-Name & NS. Sometime even more settings (depend on domain registrar).
designonly, is this your first email setup?
