Problem with deleting email account on N96

I have got 3 email accounts on my N96. I wanted to delete the oldest one, that is a POP3, but it will not get delete. I go through menu/messaging/options/emails and mark the one I want to delete and than I wait a little and nothing happens - the email account stays. I've tried with the other 2 accounts and it works fine - they get delete.
Can anybody help me on this problem. How can I delete this email account, that won't get delete by the standard way.

Try again without using WLAN. I had same problem, but solved it using GPRS.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Problem with an Email account

Hi, missjlouw.
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions.
What is the model of your phone and when did this start to happen? Also, for what email account is this? How are you accessing it? If you're getting an error message, can you provide it to us?
We look forward to your reply.

I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone. But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network. Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I re

I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone. But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network. Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I receive the emails through the cellualr network (again with the wifi off)

In your email settings on the phone check to make sure it is set to receive emails on cellular network. It's a feature you can turn off so your phone isn't constantly updating emails on the cell network, but if you are usually in a place with wifi and aren't concerned about going over your data allowance, you can turn it back on.

Problem with my email account after attempting to email photos with iphoto

Hi there,
I'm not sure if I'm posting this question in the correct place...please forgive me if not and if you know where I should post it please tell me.
I'm new to using a mac computer. I just bought my first one last week. I loaded some pics yesterday and attempted to email some to a friend...thought I knew how to do this without reading directions. ...well, after a few tries I locked up my computer momentarily and closed out my many attempts to send the few attempts of open emails I was trying to send through iphoto with a pic. iphoto is now fine and I now know how to send the photos through it using email...my problem now is that when I merely click on mail ... it shows the computer is receiving several messages but fails to put them in my inbox. I tried deleting the mailbox and adding it again. Didn't help. I tried rebooting and also shutting down the computer al the way. Didn't work. I am very computer illiterate (as if that wasn't obvious)...if you can help me, please be overly descriptive of what I need to do.
It appears that the email is "hung up" somehow...like stuck in iphoto mode for lack of a better way to describe this.
Please help me if you can.
Thanks so much!
Dawn

forgot to mention my email account is through Cox communications (pop server) if this is important to know.
Thanks again!

Problem with deleting iCloud account

How can I change my iCloud email address when the account that is attached to my iCloud right now does not exist. I tried to delete the account attached to my iCloud on my iPhone but it requires a password. The password I type in does not work because I have changed my Apple ID email address which was not changed on my iCloud. I am having troubles deleting my account and would appreciate your help!!

If you still have access to your old email address, do the following:
Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the pimary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was. You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so. You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

Problem with 1and1 email account

Hello,
I just got an iphone and am trying to set up my 1and1 email account.
It seems like it works, but only 4 out of hundreds of messages actually show up on my phone. And they are from different people, at different times - nothing special about the 4 messages.
I have the incoming host as:
imap.1and1.com
outgoing as smtp.1and1.com
I have tried the port as 143, which was the default, and as 587, which I saw on some help thing online. Whenever I use 587, however, it switches back to 143.
I know I can set up a gmail account and send it through this account, but I'd really rather just have it sync with my outlook.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

I realized what these 4 messages have in common: They were all received when my computer (and Outlook) was turned off! Those messages are on the iPhone but not my Outlook. I cannot find a solution to this - my email is IMAP, which I think shouldn't have this problem? I can only find solutions on Apple Support for POP issues in which the emails go only to one or the other device.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!

New Macbook Air setup problem with deleting user account

I recently changed from a MBP to a MBA and upon completing my migration data from old mac to new one I had an extra user account. So I have my admin account and a guest account and a third account that I don't want. Upon trying to delete this account it show "deleting user account and home folder" but it has been doing this for more than an hour therefore it will not let me exit system preferences. Any help on this?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "need configuration data ... " However, if both computers are on your network then you should be able to synchronize various files or folders using backup software. However, to start you will need to enable File Sharing on one of the computers.
For help with this select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu. Search for "file sharing." You should find several links on how to configure it on your computer. Also see Mac 101- File sharing and Tutorial- File sharing in OS X - MacFixIt.
Once file sharing is set up you can then try a backup utility to do the synching. Most backup utilities not only do backups but can also be configured to synchronize files and/or folders. Here are some possibilities:
Backup Software Recommendations
1. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
2. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
3. Deja Vu (Shareware)
4. Carbon Copy Cloner (Donationware)
5. Data Backup (Commercial)
6. SilverKeeper 2.0 (Freeware)
7. Tri-Backup (Commercial)
8. SyncTwoFolders (Freeware)
9, Data Lore (Commercial - exclusively for network file transfers over Bonjour.)
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
Hope this helps get you started.

Problem with two email accounts

I have two email accounts on my iPad. When I send an email at home using my business account, the sender defaults to my home gmail account and people respond to this email address. How can I make sure responses go to the business email address?

SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH DELETED EMAILS!!

Today when I logged onto my Mail, I noticed that ALL of my message over one week old had been deleted. I have my preferences set to delete mail in the TRASH 1 week old, but these I had not sent to the trash/delete folder.
IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET THESE E-MAILS BACK? Where should I check? There are some very important e-mails in this application!

5GB of free hard drive space should be the absolute minimum with OS X and this may have contributed to this problem.
What is the overall size of your Mail folder at Home > Library > Mail?
The Mail.app alone requires the same amount of free hard drive space as the overall size of the Mail folder for general housekeeping during operation and for most people, the Mail folder is constantly growing in size.
This along with paging or virtual memory utilized automatically and dynamically by OS X which uses available free hard drive space.
These factors alone can use all of your available free hard drive space during operation depending on the number of applications running at one time and the amount of RAM installed, etc. Having 5GB of free hard drive space shouldn't cause data loss but it is possible which is why maintaining a regular backup is so important.
See this link for more information about paging or virtual memory with OS X.

Problems with deleting email

I'm having problems deleting my emails- I check the boxes to the left of the emails I wish to get rid of - click the delete button and nothing happens- it just hangs....what's going on? Please help....

I've begun expriencing exactly the same problem. I "solve" it by logging out, shutting down the browser, then coming back in. Then deletes work for a while (maybe 3 to 5 times) then stop working again. Rinse and repeat.
Also, move seems to be spontaneously putting posts into the wrong folders.
Both problems started occurring since the evening of 15-Nov. Did some changes to webmail get implemented between then and now? The user interface "looks" a little different, but I've never paid much attention to it before.

I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that (settings/usage) it was using 900 mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.

I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that it (settings/usage) was using 900+ mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, turned the phone off and back on, downloaded any remaining mail on the server to Outlook on my computer, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.
Background: I recently (December) bought an ipad and set up icloud for contacts and calendar, but NOT mail. My email provider is Verizon. I use computer, iphone, and ipad to check my email; eventually I download it from the server using Outlook on the computer and then delete any remaining emails from the phone and ipad. I can't find info on this problem anywhere.

Howdy there COUGAR444,
It sounds like your iPad all of a sudden seems to be restarting out of no where. If you haven't called AppleCare yet, I would start with quitting either the app that seems to be causing the issue, or all the apps if a single doesn't seem to be the culprit.
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes, then restore it as new and verify that it works.
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

Hi Maastricht2014,
Until and unless you remember the password to your old email address, you will not be able to access the eBooks as those eBooks are only authorized with your old email address only.
The only workaround or alternative to access your eBooks will be to contact the eBook vendor and ask them to migrate the eBook from your old email to the new one.
Hope that Helps!

See Below. I have a problem with receiving email. Sending is ok. This is for my Thunderbird email account.

"An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table. Please check the message recipient [email protected] and try again."

''I have a problem with receiving email.''
''An error occurred while sending mail.''
Who is right here?
''This is for my Thunderbird email account.''
There is no such thing as a 'Thunderbird email account'. Thunderbird is an email client, and you use it to retrieve mail from an account you created with your email provider.
