No Advance option for Mail account setup...

I'm trying to setup an "Other" mail account and don't have the Advanced section. What should I do???

If you have more than two accounts on your ipod touch, the account which you are syncing your mail, contacts, calendars with will be the account that will push the mail. All other accounts are fetch.

  • The default account option in iOS for contacts is missing; while I have multiple account options for mail and contacts are turned on for iCloud and other accounts.

    The default account option in iOS for contacts is missing; while I have multiple account options for mail and contacts are turned on for iCloud and other accounts.  I previously was able to select between my Microsoft Exchange Contacts (work account) and iCloud (personal), but both those options are now gone.  I tried turning contacts for both off and on and rebooting, but it didn't help.  Any ideas?

    Just a guess but if the exchange account is from your employer, your employer may have installed a security profile to your device preventing you from adding or editing contacts in the exchange account by removing the Default Account setting.  You would need to check with your employer's IT department to confirm this.  You could also test this by adding a Gmail account and turning on contacts syncing with Gmail to see if the setting reappears.

  • Disable/Bypass the "Mail Account Setup" wizard

    How can I disable or bypass the "Mail Account Setup" wizard and just create a new account in the "Account Settings" panel? The "Mail Account Setup" wizard won't let me get that far without jumping through all its unhelpful hoops, and I don't know to disable or bypass it.

    Then obviously there's a need for it to actually be addressed. Right?
    I (and apperently many other people as well) have a set of connection settings, all we want to do is enter them, but TBird keep trying to force us into handholding mode, autodetecting, etc. The thing won't even LET you enter the settings without forcing it's own autodetection routines first. And why force *everyone* (not just average Joes) to use a completely *separate* settings panel for new accounts when you ALREADY have an account settings panel? A panel which, I might add, is FAR more useful than the redundant "new account" one because it exposes all the account settings, not just a small subset.
    Is it really that hard to let us non-dummies actually *just enter their settings*??? Especially when you fully admit you get a lot of people asking to *do just that*?
    Why try to force "the Mozilla way" on all your users when Mozilla makes such enormous claims about supposedly beleiving so heavily in customization and personalization?
    Frankly, you really don't have to userstand it at all. Obviously there *is* a need for it, otherwise you wouldn't be "having people with almost the same question for years". Doesn't that tell you something?

    The new dialog added by that add-on is trivial to bypass *and* it doesn't force an auto-config attempt before allowing manual config, so I'm very happy with it as a solution, thanks.

  • New Mail Account Setup

    I just setup a new work e-mail account on Mail on my iMac. For some reason it is not appearing on my iPhone even after I check the box 'Replace information of this iPhone - Mail Account' under the 'Advanced' Option in the 'Info' tab in iTunes.
    Am I doing something wrong? I don't remember having to physically set up my MobileMe account on my iPhone. Everything seemed to just sync.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    MobileMe syncs over the air but you will need to sync your work account through iTunes.
    Connect your iPhone, make sure "Sync selected mail accounts from" is ticked in the Mail Accounts section of the Info tab and that "Mail" is selected in the drop down box and then sync. How the mail-box on your phone now operates alongside the mailbox on your Mac depends on which protocol you are using to connect to your work e-mail account (IMAP or POP) or if it is an exchange server account with push enabled. If it's not exchange, you might find IMAP more useful as it will ensure all mailboxes are kept in sync. POP is really an old protocol designed when people only used one mail client. If you need any further assistance, I am happy to help.

  • HT5622 I did not choose "use icloud" option for my initial setup.  so, it is creating for not enough space in my ipad.  How do I go back and set up icloud to store data?

    I did not choose "use icloud" option for storing during my initial setup.  How can I reset icloud account, so it can be used for storing.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you are planning on using iCloud to store files, forget about iCloud and use a cloud storage service like SkyDrive or Dropbox. iCloud is focused on information sync between the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac and PC instead of storing files like MobileMe. It's not worth using iCloud for this.
    If you still want to set up iCloud, open Settings > iCloud, log in with your Apple ID and follow its steps

  • Mail account setup

    Trying to setup my mother's new macbook.
    She has an existing bellsouth.net e-mail account.
    When I try to add the account I get the error "SMTP can't connect to the server..."
    (her .mac account works fine)
    I'm sure all the info is entered correctly--
    Ideas?
    Many thanks

    It looks like bellsouth.net support forwards to the AT&T site. For POP email accounts they are recommending:
    Incoming mail server: POP3
    Outgoing mail server: Outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication
    Incoming mail port #: 995, secure connection (SSL) checked
    Outgoing mail port #: 465, secure connection (SSL) checked
    Your Email Address:
    [email protected]
    Incoming (POP)
    pop.att.yahoo.com
    Outgoing (SMTP)
    smtp.att.yahoo.com
    Here's their page to set up using an older version of Mac Mail - but the settings should still work.
    http://support.att.net/bellsouth/asp/contentview.asp?sprt_cid=1fe5ff01-b129-4dd5 -bb48-61ce1d7e84f3
    I guess the main difference is that they a saying port 995 instead of port 993.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mail account setup loop

    I recently reinstalled Mac OS X on my MacBook Pro (to get rid of some of the software I had downloaded/installed during my first run with a Mac), and I had backed up my Keychain, Mail and preferences, and iCalendar database to a CD--or so I thought. It seems that none of the files were correct during the burn, but that's okay; I'm not out much. I was still able to import my mail after I finished setting up my accounts.
    Now everytime I run Mail, it asks me to setup my accounts again. It's like the settings just doesn't stick.

    For your information, you don't need to reinstall OS X to remove downloaded software; not only is it time consuming, it's completely unnecessary. By and large, to remove a piece of software you've downloaded and installed, you locate the program, click on it once to select it, then press Command-Shift-Delete to move it to the Trash, then empty the Trash. Some installer packages also have uninstall features built in to find all the files they may have scattered on your hard drive during installation.
    You may have a corrupted Preferences file. Go to Username/Library/Preferences and find the file com.apple.mail.plist, and drag it to your Desktop. Then try launching Mail and setup your Mail account(s) again; quit Mail and relaunch to see if it asks you to setup accounts again. If not, then your problem would be solved and you can delete the old preferences file on your Desktop.

  • Need help mapping Exchange info to Apple Mail account setup

    I need a little help mapping the Exchange settings I have from my IT department to the fields used by Apple Mail for an Exchange mailbox. It's not clear whether Apple Mail is really using the Exchange protocols or POP. The names have been changed to protect the innocent.
    From my IT department:
    Outlook web access (OWA): server.mycompany.com
    Exchange server: exchg.server.mycompany.com
    Exchange domain: EXCHG
    Incoming mail (POP/IMAP): inserver.mycompany.com
    Outgoing mail (SMTP): outserver.mycompany.com
    Exchange proxy setting: exproxy.mycompany.com
    Apple Mail 3.3:
    Incoming mail server: Should this be exchg.server.mycompany.com or inserver.mycompany.com ?
    User name: Should this be the userid that I use for https Outlook Web Access (OWA) login?
    Outgoing mail server: outserver.mycompany.com
    Outlook web access server: Should this be exproxy.mycompany.com ?
    The Apple Mail fields for "incoming mail server" and "outgoing mail server" suggest that it's not really using the Exchange protocols so what does it do with the "Outlook Web Access Server" information??
    Thanks in advance. I hope this thread is useful to others!

    Create the mail account as "IMAP" and use these server settings:
    Incoming mail (POP/IMAP): inserver.mycompany.com
    Outgoing mail (SMTP): outserver.mycompany.com
    User name: Should this be the userid that I use for https Outlook Web Access (OWA) login?
    It should be the username in Active Directory, typically in the form "domain\usershortname" or "usershortname@fqdn_domain". Don't mix up the Active Directory domain with the mail domain! If not set up different, this should be the same credentials you use to authenticate for Outlook Web Access.

  • Mail Account NO LONGER stores Passwords for Mail Accounts

    Since my last restart my mac mail accounts (.mac, company, etc) no longer STORE passwords for either the send or smtp receive... Anyone experience this before? I'm going to try and toss the mail pref files and even delete my accounts, but since it's happening to ALL of my accounts (5) at the same time I'm concerned that I'll be wasting my time until I fix what's gotten broken...

    Since these password are stored in your Keychain, try running Keychain First Aid on your Keychain via Keychain Access.

  • Need help with Rules for mail accounts

    Today I deleted a rule for a mail account and now I cant receive mail in 4 of 8 accounts. I'm not experienced with Mac's Mail program. Id there something you have to do for multiple accounts to recieve all mail? I can send but not receive.
    Help!
    ~ Tammy

    It's hard to believe that deleting a rule could have a bearing on the ability to receive messages from any account... unless that rule did something that prevented subsequent rules to process the messages that you apparently can't receive now.
    That is, either having deleted the rule has absolutely no bearing on your problem, or the problem is that those messages are now being processed in an unexpected way by some of your other rules.
    What type of accounts are these (POP, IMAP, .Mac)? What does "I cant receive mail in 4 of 8 accounts" mean?

  • Password for Mail accounts.

    Hello everyone. Does anyone know how or in which location e.g. Library, Prefrences, I can find the password or keychain for my Mail accounts?
    Thank you.

    You add them in Mail->Preferences->Accounts->Account Information->select the account and they're stored in /Users/username/Library/login.keychain
