Problem Syncing Mail with iCloud

I have been unable to receive email from iCloud on my iMac since September 17,2012. On that date I set up my new Mac Book Pro with the same email address and Apple ID in iCloud. The form of my email address is [email protected] I used to have a MobileMe account which I moved to iCloud several months ago and it had been operating perfectly well. When I opened that account I used an existing email as my Apple ID in the form of [email protected] However, up to April 17, everything was working perfectly well. In addition, two days ago I bought a new iPad and set it up with the [email protected] Apple ID. I tried deleting the iCloud account from the iMac and doing everything from the ground up, but it does not work. The mail continues to search for something (you see the small wheel turning constantly as if searching for something) but it does not do anything. Mail in the Mac Book Pro is working perfectly well as is on the iPad and iPhone. What can I do?

Let me get this right, you got a mail problem 5 months from now and succeeded in fixing it 5 months before you got it. ?

  • Syncing mail with iCloud

    have different email accounts all synced through mail but onlu the icloud mail account syncs with mail can the google and the yahoo be uploaded to icloud as well?

    No.  Only the iCloud mail account (and no other mail account) syncs through iCloud.

    I have not been able to sync my mail with iCloud on my MacBookPro (Lion OS).  Everything else has been syncing fine for the past two months, but when I go to System Pref/iCloud/and try to check Mail, it asks me to choose an iCloud email address. When I put in my regular @me.com email, it says that address already exists (of course it does - it's mine!) and wants me to choose another one.  But I want it to sync with my stuff.  What can I do?  I haven't been able to find help anywhere online...  Thanks!

    You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

  • How do I sync Mail with Outlook and Gmail in browser?

    I really like the Mail app in OS X, but I've noticed that it's not synced with the browser version of my email accounts, so anything I do in Mail (e.g. read an email, delete/trash it, etc) is only reflected within the app and not in my browser.
    Just in case I didn't explain that properly: For example, if I read an email in Mail, and then switch to my Outlook account in Safari to check if that email has been marked as read, it would still appear as unread. If I delete and trash and email in Mac, that same email appears exactly where it used to be in Outlook, completely untouched.
    This bothers me for two reasons. One, even if I were to stick with Mail and not touch my Outlook/Gmail accounts in Safari again, I still wouldn't like the idea of my inbox being all messy if I were ever to log back in. Two, Mail doesn't seem to have any options to create folders and subfolders as far as I'm aware, so my emails which are very neatly organized in Outlook are all lumped together in Mail's inbox. So even though Mail is a neat little app, I still have Outlook and Gmail bookmarked.
    I'd like to know if there's a way to sync Mail with my email accounts in-browser, so that any changes I make in the app also show up when I log into my actual accounts? Maybe I'm just missing something or if this is not possible at all, please let me know. Thank you!

    You have to set those accounts up as IMAP. Right now you probably have them set up as POP3 accounts.
    Pop3 account are one way. You download your mail to your computer and send mail from your computer and it all stays on that particular computer. Imap stores everything on the mail providers server. Incoming and outgoing mail is always on the imap server and can be gotten on multiple devices. All sent mail is store on the server also and can be viewed from multiple devices.
    With outlook that might not be possible. Not sure if individual outlook accounts can use imap. I do know that the office365 side can as that is what my company uses and some people are using macs and other email program other then ms outlook.

    how to configure bt mail with icloud?

    iCloud does not handle any mail systems except for its own. BT is not an iCloud mail system, so you can't.

  • Syncing Mail with Word attachments without the internet?

    Is there a way to sync email with Word doc. attachments with a desktop, via a usb cable, without the desktop having an internet connection?
    The setup is an iphone that syncs mail with a work computer that is internet connected. At home there is no internet accept Edge; i.e. iPhone gets internet but the desktop does not. I would like to use the iphone to move Word docs from emails back and forth to the desktop. I.e. someone emails me with a word doc attachment, (ii) Can I then sync (download) the attachment onto my home computer via a USB cable, edit the document? and then (iii) sync (upload) the edited word document back to the iPhone (which will then sync with my work computer via the Edge connection.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hey Tooschaye,
    iTunes will sync the email account settings to the iPhone, it does not sync the actual emails or attachments.
    You should be able to find a few applications on the App Store which will let you store files on your iPhone. Then you can transfer the files to your desktop. I believe most of these apps require the devices be on the same Wi-Fi network.

  • IPad can't sync contacts with iCloud

    I need some help....  I have an iMac running Mtn Lion (10.8.2) and an iPad3 (6.0.1) and I'm trying to sync the two in iCloud.  Contacts are giving me a headache.  I've got the contacts into iCloud so I went to iTunes, clicked on the iPad and went to "info".  Thought everything was OK but no contacts (actually there are a couple) on the IPad.  Went back to iTunes and clicked on the iPad. went to "info" and now there is no box to check next to "Sync Contacts" and the message in the box says  "Your contacts are being synced with you iPad over the air from iCloud" and "Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPad."  My contacts are syncing (iPad) with iCloud and I can't figure out to get the check box back so I can choose to sync my contacts.  I know there are other threads out there with similar questions but I couldn't find anything that helped me.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Correction....my iPad contacts are NOT syncing with iCloud

  • Outlook 2011 problem syncing contacts with address book

    I am aware that Lion has broken the sync ability of Outlook 2011 with Address Book. Hopefullly this will be fixed at some point.
    So my problem is that I have decided to use a workaround to get my Address Book contents into Outlook 2011. I am not concerned with further syncing at this point. I just want to get my addresses into Outlook and hope a better fix is offered at some point.
    About the only way I could figure out how to do this was to export my Address Book as vCard. I then imported the vCard file into Gmail and then exported that as a CSV file. It contained 550 addresses. I opened it in Excel and it contained 550 rows. Great so far.
    I then Imported into Outlook 2011 and chose import a text file. When the mapping window opened, it showed over 890 files instead of 550 and the fields were not mapped correctly. I could not complete the import because it was so screwed up.
    So I'm back to square one and very frustrated. There must be others who have the same issue and maybe have figured out a way to do this. Please help.

  • IPhone 4S IOS5 problems sync Calendar with Exchange 2003

    One of my users is having problems sync Calendar with a brand new iPhone 4S running IOS5 and our Exchange 2003 Server. If an item is updated in Outlook it will not reflect it in the iPhone or viceversa. New items show up in both, only the updates in notes or changing some text in the subject or other elements in one side is not updated in the other side. Any help will be greatly appreciate.

    Hi man, I got the same problem with my iPhone, but it has been solved..
    First, You need the Outlook 2003 or 2007 only, if you have a earlier version of this it isn't work.
    Second, You sould need to create a new PST file whit the Outlook Version 2003 or 2007, the file format must be on Unicode Format, no Outlook (97-2000) format, with this file format the import of calendar doesn't gonna be work.
    Third, You now have a PST whit Outlook 2003 or 2007 Version, you need to manually put your events on the calendar, Why? Cause if you just move it on the new calendar it gonna create and old instance of the event not a new instance, That's why iTunes doesn´t sync the calendar.
    I done all these and actually I can sync the calendar with my iphone.

  • I have been having syncing issues with icloud notes, contacts, and now icloud email. Does anyone have suggestions?

    Just recently, I have been unable to receive icloud email on my iphone and new ipad3. Although, I am a loyal apple consumer, I feel a bit let down. I am a PhD student and used my ipad/icloud email for downloading  and reading PDF journal  articles. My goal is to eventally buy a MacBook Pro and eliminate some of the syncing issues with icloud by storing my documents on the hard drive. I hope this will give me some relief from all the trouble I have had with icloud. Please share your suggestions.

    Right now, there is an iCloud blackout.  Most people are having issues syncing Notes, Calenders, and Contacts between devices, emails aren't being sent, and Find My iPhone isn't working.

  • Help! Syncing iPad with iCloud after setting it to sync with iTunes

    I bought my iPad yesterday and synced it with iTunes. Now I want to sync it with iCloud (I have my iPhone 4 backed up in iCloud). Do I need to restore my iPad?.

    I don't actually play games on my iPad or phone but I believe that games need to work through the game centre for data to sync like that. Although its also technically possible for games to do it through document and data syncing in the iCloud system preferences, but I don't know if any games have taken advantage of the possibility yet.

  • Problem syncing photos with Apple TV and iPod

    Ever since I connected my Apple TV I have had problems syncing photos with both my iPod and my Apple TV.
    The Apple TV gives me an error (no desciption) when I try to sync photos. The iPod gives me an error 39.
    iPhotos is working fine. I rebuilt the library using the rebuild library feature and this has not fixed the problem.
    I also rebuilt my iTunes library without success in fixing the problem.
    How does it sync? Is there some kind of syncing file I need to delete that may be corrupt?
    Does anyone have any ideas about what I could try?

    Just a suggestion,
    for a speedier and better informed reply, post your question in the AppleTV forums.
