Push and btinternet email accounts

Hi all - i have updated to version 2 and mac is pushing but my other email accounts - btinternet included can only fetch
any ideas where i am going wrong?

I found that as Btinternet accounts are actually part of Yahoo you can just set up a push account for that email account by going into "settings" then "mail" then "add account" then "Yahoo Mail" then you enter all your btinternet email information as requested - where it asks for Address you would enter "[email protected]" password etc and "Bobs your uncle" it will all push through

Sync (push) and multiple email accounts

Does anyone know if it ispossible to have some email accounts automatically sync (push) while others are not?

Unfortunately at this time the only option is one or the other. if you choose to PUSH all will be pushed and the same is true for the non PUSH. However if you search in the market there may be an application that allows this. Keep in mind that all applications are from third party users and are download at your own risk.

I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on my phone. Can/should I delete the accounts on my phone and start over? It is somewhat of a nuisance to have two email accounts and double the amount of emails. The only thing different about the two iCloud accounts is the email addresses. Thanks.

Well, seems I managed to unscrew this...I deleted my iCloud mail account and reinstalled it on my phone. That got rid of the duplicate .me/.mac email accounts.

Can I have separate password for appstore and icloud email account?

Can I have other password for appstore and icloud email account? Me and my girlfriend have iphones and i would like to share my apps with her, but i dont want to give her possibility to acces my email account....

Well you can only have a different password if you are going to use a different Apple ID

How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account it's tied to no longer exists?

The password will not be sent to you, because Apple does not know it. They will send a link where you can reset the password. It will be sent to your Rescue email address, not the iCloud email address. If you don't have one contact Apple Account Security and they can reset it for you: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

Problems with .mac and .me email accounts after iCloud

For over a month I have been locked out of my .mac and .me email accounts on password issues involving iCloud.
I must have changed (duly confirmed as valid by Apple) a dozen times my iCloud account password and duly updated it to the preferences of mail.
Still, when I try opening the mail I am prompted to enter the password, which every time fails. Every time I follow the link to replace the pw, I do so, I get the OK from Apple and back to square one ....
I tried talking to support, but after 40 minutes of waiting I was given an ineffectual tip that did not work. No intention of calling again.
Can anyone please put an end to my suffering?
(Yes, I can type. Yes, I have been using Apple computers since 1984. Yes, I regularly enter countless password protected sites, no problem)
Thanks a lot,
Luigi

I understand that they're the same thing but they don't seem to be working like that at the moment... and this has been the case ever since transferring to iCloud.
The problem I'm having is that if anyone emails my .mac address it returns to sender undeliverable, while the .me address works fine. Similarly, if I try to send an email using .mac it won't send it, but it will using .me. Most of my contacts have the .mac address so I'm not getting any emails.
If anyone has any advice I'd be most grateful.

Help setting up Mail - to work with my MSN and Hotmail email accounts.

Can you walk me through the entry steps in setting up Mail to recognize my MSN and Hotmail email accounts. I don't know how to do this. Please keep it simple, what entries I need to make, screen by screen. I'm indebted to you.
Jim

Hi,
First of all you might want to double check the settings you are using for the POP3 account in Mail with Microsoft's instructions:

The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

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.

Primary and secondary Email accounts

Hello,
Is there a way to specify primary and secondary email account ? In case if the primary server is down, the secondary server would be used for sending the notification.
Thanks.

I am implementing something similar to what you have suggested. I was wondering if there is a way to achieve this by just changing configuration. Looks like it is not possible to configure it and coding it is the only way out.
Thanks for your inputs :)

HT201342 How can I easily merge my .me and .icloud email accounts?

How can I easily merge my .me and .icloud email accounts?

You don't need to merge them - they are already merged as they are exactly the same account. They are just different addresses pointing to the same account.
mende1 has it wrong saying "you receive the same mails on both mail accounts". There is only one mail account. Both email addresses point to the same single email account.

Issue having seperate data pushes for multiple email accounts

I've always had gmail set up through my phone. I love push and don't receive any issues using it.I recently added a 2nd, work email (exchange) to my phone. However, I'd prefer to manually check the exchange account while leaving my gmail on push. I can't seem to figure it out though. My best guess was to go:
settings>mail>fetch new data>advanced.
I have my gmail on push and my exchange on manual. I would assume the advance settings override the push and fetch settings on the primary "fetch new data" screen. However, nothing seems to be working the way I want it to. Sometimes my phone will auto-update my exchange, sometimes i'll get gmail belated, etc.
If anyone could please advise the proper settings for both the primary screen as well as the advance settings in order to have my exchange on manual and gmail on push.
Thanks

Note sure what G mail is, but if it involves another isp email provider not interested, I have multiple accounts as a garbage dump for spam possibilities too much spam on one account bye bye. Usually 2 main email accounts though. btw, not a memory issue either. still plenty left. Was looking at the contacts thread and there is receiving/sending issues with email since 2.0 update anyway.

Push and Fetch email not working on iPhone 4S

My iPhone 4S only receives email intermittently. I`ve tried deleting my email accounts, turing the phone off and on again, and adding additional email accounts, but the fixes are only temporary and sooner or later, usually sooner, my iPhone stops receiving email again. This happens when it`s set to Push and when it`s set to Fetch. This is so frustrating. I rely on my phone for email and and so disappointed with iPhone`s performance. I have to say that my Blackberry was much, much better. I`m seriously thinking about switching back to BB. Are there any fixes for this out there....

N8 and imaps email account

Hi all.
I have an N8, and I'm trying to configure an imaps email account.
My organization use the imap ssl with a self created certificate for sign the connection. The problem is that in N8 there is no way to say to nokia push servers to use that certificate, and thus during the account creation the configuration fail saying to check the servers name.
Is there any way to have the push mail working?

there is a messaging forum
/t5/Messaging-Email-and-Browsing/bd-p/messaging
so the messaging super geeks might be in there
i know what you mean. i have a self signed certificate on my server and can't use NM with this either. fortunately i just drop mine down to regular imap and it's all fine (save the huge problems with NM, and push over imap) i guess you can't do that.
the other option would be to decline the terms of service as you finish setting up the account., this causes the phone to switch back to a regular email client that connects directly with the mail servers rather than via NM.
there is no push option. but email can be set to retrieve on notify. notify being when it is indicated over an imap idle connection. or you can just set it to retrieve every 5 minutes.
you are still going to have certificate issues. but they may be manageable.
There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

.mac and multiple email accounts

I know this stuff has been posted before but I have not been able to get any of the solutions to work.
I have 1 .mac account that works fine. I have four email addresses registered under this one account. I have set up five accounts on my computer. One master/admin and then one each for myself, my wife and my two children.
First I would like them to be able to send emails from their own email addresses and not from the 'master'. It was suggested that I enter the email addresses when setting up the mail account in mail. However I am not able to do so, even with a new account. It works for POP and IMAP account types but not for .mac where that crucial field is blanked out.
If I use POP even though it is .mac then the incoming mail works fine but not the outgoing mail. I do get an option as to which address I would like to use on the outgoing mail... but since it does not go anywhere that is little use.
Actually I am not sure the outgoing will work anyway and I am not sure why. It appears to be identical to the one computer account that does work and that I have been using as a template....
I have been struggling with this for hours and I am going gently mad. Any/all help would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Clarke Pitts.

Clarke,
Welcome to the Discussions.
This is easily accomplished in Tiger and Mail 2.0, but harder in Mail 1.3.11. Do you have any plans to upgrade? See:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/2.0/en/ml1114.html
With Mail 1.3.11, you can set your main .mac address up as an IMAP account, and add each of the other addresses to the email address field in preferences, but you must then use the SMTP of your ISP, and not smtp.mac.com.
You also can set each one of the .mac aliases up as POP account, and both check to never check for new mail, AND take the account Offline to prevent constant failure message if Mail were try and receive mail for that address. As you set up these alias accounts, you must push ahead, even after Mail tells you that you cannot connect -- you are not trying to connect, since it will be offline. But even tho' Offline, you can still send from each address (but only by using the SMTP of the ISP), and in this mode can have separate Full Name entries for each, and rules can be used to move emails from the .mac Inbox to each Inbox of these alias accounts.
If your ISP would be one the rare ones to limit From addresses to its own Domain, then this would not work.
Ask any questions needed.
Ernie
