No Longer Possible to Access iCloud Mail on Third Party Mac

Something has changed recently. It is no longer possible to access iCloud mail on a third party mac via web browser
This afternoon, I tried to do so on my daughter's iMac - and the system wanted me to set up iCloud rather than letting me access Mail (or any other iCloud services for that matter) instead. Tried different browsers, change of login account on the computer. All to no avail. Have to set up iCloud on the computer. Which means either logging my daughter out, or creating a whole new identity for the purpose. This entirely defeats the notion of the simple webmail interface - and indeed makes Pages, Calendar, etc inaccessible unless on your own computer, or one that you have used to set up an iCloud account. Not something that you want to do in an internet cafe or an airport lounge.
Two sets of Chat Support sessions later, with the problem being hinted to be probably due to "my daughter's computer (!!???)", no satisfaction
I am now in the airport, trying to still access my iCloud mail through a web browser. Same nonsense about setting up iCloud before I can access my iCloud mail via the web through a browser.
Apple, this was one of the advantages of iCloud that I, as a regular traveller, have found useful in the past. Today I have wasted well over an hour on something that is clearly an error in the logic of how people will be using iCloud - possibly a "feature" of Mavericks?
Please bring back simple and straightforward access to iCloud mail via web browser, so that I can once again access my mail from any third party computer.
Thanks
Nic

Excellent, well done. I have to say that talktalk were useless, they repeatedly sent me instructions for setting up an emil account and did not seem able to understand that it was the login that would not work. Thank you.

Can't login to iCloud mail from third party client

it's a no go, either from Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird. Using the following settings:
imap.mail.me.com ssl/993
smtp.mail.me.com tls/587
I'm being told that the server rejected my credentials, Works fine from iOS and from iCloud browser interface though. Thanks.
ps: yeah I'm seeing in some places that some people are using different settings for IMAP, they add a server number with an hyphen before imap.mail etc...

off topic here: just on a side note, push for iCloud mail on iOS seems to work only when mail is running in the background.

Access data from a third party warehousing tools in BEx WAD

Hi,
I would like to know whether it's possible to access data from a third party warehousing tools ( For eg: Cognos) in BEx Web Application designer. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
BEx Web Application designer is only integrated to BIW server. So We can not access data of other tools unless the data is stored in the BIW server as the data in any data target.

After activatin iCloud, my dotMac account wouldn't retrieve mail anymore. It kept saying that my username or password were not good. No matter how many times I tried, I couldn't restore the service.
Here's how I got it working again.
Apparently my 6 letter password is no longer acceptable. You need to update it to an 8 letter password that includes numbers and capital letters.
So I went to https://iforgot.apple.com and asked to reset my password.
Because I could still get my emails logging into iCloud with Safari, I responded to Apple's email, and created a stronger password.
Than I updated the passwords on my computer's Mail program, iPhone, and iPad (and of course everything else, iTunes, etc.).
That was it!
Everything works as normal again, I even was finally able to synchronize calendars over different computers again.
Try it out, it could be your issue as well.

Cannot access iCloud mail

I cannot access Icloud mail on my Macbookpro or my IPad. It worked intil about a week ago. Nothing has changed.
The message is that the password is wrong. How do I correct this or chandge Icloud mail password?

I can login to Icloud and access allthe other features.
I cannot access mail from Icloud, Ipad or Macbook Pro

I dont't receive my iCloud mail anymore on my Mac.

Since last Friday I dont't receive my iCloud mail anymore on my Mac. The iPad still works fine. I can't think of any reason why my Mac doesn't receive the e-mail anymore. Other accounts are still working.
Sincerely,
Riks

Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when you try to open Mail.

Is it possible to sync my mail folders/boxes between Mac mail and iPhone?

Is it possible to sync my mail folders/boxes between Mac mail and iPhone? ie. I get an email on my iphone but I also read it and store it On My Mac folders. Is there a way this can be set up 'same' on my iphone...then I would only need to read my mail one place? Same as my iPad...I'm tired of doing the same step 3 times ONLY because my folders are only on my MAC

IMAP is a mail protocol. Your email provider must support it (most regular ISPs do not). If your mail provider supports IMAP then when you create an account on the iPhone choose "IMAP" when prompted. You cannot convert a POP3 account to IMAP; you must delete it and re-create it. But first check to see if your provider supports it. Microsoft Exchange works similarly to IMAP, but has the added feature of "pushing" mail to your phone within seconds of it being received.
With IMAP and Exchange the master copy of all mail remains on the server until deleted. Your computer(s) and iPhone sync with the server, so all of your devices will show the same messages. When you delete from one the message will be removed from all with the next sync (or immediately for Exchange).

Is it possible to launch native app through third party app.

I am making the app in which I want to launch the others app,I am able to launch the third party app but not the mobile native app. Is it possible to launch native app through third party app.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

For example I want to launch sudoku game which is preinstalled in the phone from my application,but I am not able to do that.

Does icloud work with third party apps?

Will icloud work with third party apps like minecraft pe, 360 panorama or real MYST?
Just wondering...

If the developers of those apps have incorporated support for iCloud into their apps, then yes.
Contact the developers of the third-party apps and ask.

GarageBand has detected a possible conflict between one or more third party

I have 200 computers that when you launch GarageBand 3.0.5 it comes up with the error:
GarageBand has detected a possible conflict between one or more third party MIDI or audio drivers
Our image is basically 10.5.6 with mainly Adobe CS 3 suite. No other sound programs or anything sound or video related was installed besides iLife 06 and I'm not sure what is causing the issue. I have tried reinstalling iLife 06 and run all updates available from Apple and repairing permissions. I have went through the plugins in /Library/Audio folder and haven't had any luck at all.
What gets me is under the admin account I have it working fine by removing the default emagic plugin in /Library/Audio/ etc.. but if I log in as a regular user without admin privileges i get the error.
I have tried deleting pref files in the users Preferences folder, but I just can't find a workaround.
It kinda seems to be like a permissions issue since the Admin account works, but I have tried pushing permissions 777 to /Library/Application Support/ and to /Library/Audio and to /Applications/Garageband.app and still no results.
I was blaming an Apple update because things worked fine before, I'm not sure what caused it. I reinstalled the combo update and that didn't help either.
I reformatted and installed 10.5 and upgraded using the combo updater to 10.5.6 and installed iLife 06 and installed all available updates from Apple like I have in the image and things work fine.
But I need to get this working on our image.........Anyone have any ideas as to what could possible be the issue and might know a fix????
Google searches the solutions I have found are repairing permissions and deleting plugins. I have tried repairing permissions and have no plugins besides the defaults, but I have already removed the emagic one and nothing else is in there.
Thanks!!

To get me through the year I deleted a bunch of Microsoft Office Receipts in /Library/Receipts and it fixed the issue.
I have no idea why, deleting a receipt from another app shouldn't affect anything, but it worked. I spent many hours trying to figure out a solution and this worked!
We are running iLife 09 now and no issues so far!

Can't access iCloud mail or contacts from PC

I can't access my iCloud emails or contacts from my home PC (Windows 7). iCloud.com either returns an error message or else fails to respond at all.
All other sites I try are behaving normally, so it would appear to be an iCloud problem rather than anything at my end.
Here is the error message I get from iCloud:
"Mail could not be loaded
"There was a problem loading the application due to a possible network error or missing resources. Please try again.
"Details
"By clicking 'send to Apple' you agree that Apple will collect and use this information..."
I have tried this many times. I either get this error message, or else nothing at all happens. All other web sites work fine. I have no other problems with my PC in any application, so this is almost certainly a problem with iCloud. Until it is solved, iCloud is nearly useless to me, as I can only use it from one device, my iPad. On my PC, I reach iCloud by clicking on the link within the iCloud application.
I would greatly appreciate some help in dealing with this problem in accessing iCloud from my PC. (No Mac-based solutions, please: I don't have one.)

Today this worked for the first time on my PC, at last. Had just updated iCloud software to version 2.1.2 - could this have affected the operation of the web site on my computer? Seems odd. Anyway, nice that it finally works. Suggest others who have the same problem try this.

No access iCloud mail

Hi,
Have not had access to my ICloud mail for 12 hours now !!! Have talked to nice people att Applecare several times but they cant find any solution. 12 hours is a really long time and I feel quite disapointed. Does anyone else have any idea of any solution?

It's down for me as well, however this is one of those server-side situations where Apple just has to figure out what is going wrong and fix it. There isn't a solution per say that any of us can do but wait it out. It's annoying, but these things happen. Remember, they have a huge event tomorrow which might be contributing to this outage.

Also, iCloud keeps forgetting my password on iphone and makes it unable to collect email...
Any thoughts?

Yes, fortunately it suddenly started working again. I'm not really sure what (if anything) I did. In any case I used the password reset function on http://iforgot.apple.com/ a few times, maybe that's what fixed the problem in my case.

Can't access iCloud mail

Hi. I setup iCloud on my new iPad (3). I'm the only one using it. I created an iCloud email @me.com. However, I don't know how I can check that me.com email. When I go to iCloud.com, it only says Set Up iCloud on this device. I have done that. How can I log in? It's not as if I'm using another's iPad.. Pls help. Thanks! : )

To check your emails use the "Mail" app on your iPad, new messages will be pushed automatically.
Note: You can only access your mail at iCloud.com using a computer.
