Receiving mail on both iphone and outlook

Setting up my mail accounts on iphone3 and when mail is being received on my iphone it does not appear in my outlook aswell and vice versa, how do I receive same mail on both iphone and outlook?

Set it up as IMAP or configure it so that, while using POP, it retains a copy of the message on the server so that it can be downloaded again on multiple clients.

Some contacts missing on both iPhone and Outlook since installing iOS 7.1

I have an iPhone 5S which I successfully sync to Outlook 2007 using iCloud, until recently when I upgraded to iOS 7.1. Most contacts are still there on both my PC and iPhone, but as luck would have it, the ones missing are mostly the important ones for my business. I have tried turning OFF and then ON the settings in both iCloud on my PC and also on my iPhone - as I have often seen suggested for this type of problem - but without any success. I have frequently backed-up but they do not appear anywhere and, strangely, they are random from within the contacts list. Can anyone please advise a method of possibly restoring them? Thanks in advance.

Try installing Microsoft Word for iPad and using that instead. It is free to use as a reader and if you want to use with all its editing capabilities, you can pay the Office365 license.

Problems with synching calendars between iPhone and Outlook 2007 on Windows

I recently purchased a copy of windows 7 ultimate 64. It was an English version, but since it is ultimate I downloaded and changed it to Danish - so far so good...
I have synch'ed between outlook and iPhone on a Vista platform without problems, but now on windows 7 when I sync - the result is, that on my iPhone the meetings, work schedules and birthdays I have in my calendar is shown a day too soon!!
I have checked that both iPhone and Outlook start the week on Mondays, so that is not an issue - I have updated my iPhone to the newest software with out any luck - so now I try and write here instead - hopefully someone can help me...
thanks in advance

yes they were set to the same timezone - which puzzled me a lot...
I lost a lot of sleep, but I can now say that I have solved the problem...
What I did was, that I un-installed microsoft office (desperate I know!) - then ran a sync with the iPhone choosing to overwrite the Calendar in the phone - as there was no calendar present - it deleted what was on the phone. Then I re-installed Microsoft office, by doing that, I didn't loose anything because the user files was still present including mail setting etc. - resynced the iPhone - and now it works...
Just can't figure out what went wrong in the first place...
thank you for your answer

After syncing, lost almost all contacts (except 12) on iPhone and Outlook

I did a sync on Thursday and I lost almost all contacts (except 12 contacts) on both iPhone and Outlook. Only 6 of remaining 12 contacts were new entries since last syncing. So, some old contacts stays and most of got ereased. I tried to search for possible solutions with no luck. I got my iPhone in Asia to be able to have Chinese character input. I am traveling now and it looks like I dont' have a backup file of my outlook.
Is there a way to retrive the contact data from the iPhone Hard Drive?
Need help ASAP.

Not sure what happened here, but I'm not aware of an iTunes prompt to sync an iPhone that is connected. Each iPhone includes a preference setting to automatically sync with iTunes when connected - which I recommend turning off. This is selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences. iTunes includes a preference setting to not automatically sync and iPod or iPhone when connected. This is a personal choice, but I prefer manually syncing, or syncing when I want to in case I want to make any changes before my iPhone is synced.
I assume your Father does not maintain a backup of his Address Book data on his Mac, or any other important data? The Address Book application includes a simple and quick backup Address Book option which is important to use when syncing any device, but is important regardless in case a problem arises with the Address Book database.
On your Father's Mac, with the Address Book application quit, go to Home > Library > Application Support > AddressBook.
Within the Address Book folder, move the AddressBook.data file to the Desktop.
Change the name of the AddressBook.data.previous to AddressBook.data or remove the .previous extension from the file name so it is AddressBook.data only.
Cross your fingers and launch the Address Book application. If the Address Book data is not restored, and your Father does not have a backup of his Address Book data, the data is lost.

HT4759 I want to use icloud mail on both iPhone 4s AND my pc. icloud mail on PC is mega glitchy and frustrating because my PC is ancient, I run XP, & these DO NOT MEET req's for iCloud. Is there a email platform that will run well on both XP and iPhone?

I NEED to use icloud mail on both iPhone 4s AND my PC. I need to use both.
Trying to use icloud mail on PC is mega glitchy (STOP SCRIPT WARNINGS EVERY FEW MINUTES) and frustrating because:
1. my PC is ancient (but nicely refurbished/fast)
2. I run XP (with both Firefox and Chrome- newest versions)
3. thusly, I DO NOT MEET SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for iCloud.
In my passed attempts I found that
1. Yahoo doesn't work well on iPhone
2. Gmail doesnt work well on iPhone.
I must be missing something... an app or... maybe a donated/ NEW FREE MAC! (That would be sweet! Ha.)
Is there an email platform that will run well on both XP and iPhone?
or... Please say it isn't true: I would love a Mac tablet or desktop. We have no money for a mac. SOL? Is this iCloud apple tech only for wealthy middle class and above who can afford to have the newest and best of everything?

@Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

I have a bigpond email account and can receive emails on both ipad and iPhone. I can receive on th iPhone when on 3G. When I connect either to a wi if network I cannot send emails. Get a message that says my email address is rejected by the server.

I have both iPhone and iPad that will not send emails when I am connected via wi if. Have tried three wi if networks. I get a messag that says the sender address (my address) was rejected by the server. Any ideas on what I need to do?

Hi and thanks again for trying to help.
Definitely works ok from pc.
Have deleted and re-established account a few times now but still the same.
I have actually given up and added gmail account which is working fine.
Sends and receives no problem.
Bloody bigpond....
We are not remote at all. Sitting in the fantastic Pavilion Hotel in Phnom Penh. Another couple here having trouble but not bigpond. Hotel staff have tried to help but to no avail.
Giving up and stick with gmail until we get home then start trying to get resolution.
Problem actually existed on a personal wi fi network in Melbourne before we left so I should have tried to resolve it then.
Thanks again for suggestions.

I want to be able to face time also using my ipad2 to my laptop especially if one of the members of the family is traveling. Thanks.

thanks. your answer was correct, clearer. I have another question, maybe you can answer. I just purchase my ipad2 2 days ago. yesterday, there was a sound. today there is no sound. there is a sound only in movies and you tube and music. but no sound on all apps and keyboards. I look it up and seems like ther are few that have this problem. I called walmart coz I bought it there and they told me that they have not heard that before but if I can't fix it, just return it and exchange it with anew one since I have 14 days to do that. I tried rebooting it and still won't work. Should I just restore it?

How do I get mail on my iPhone and computer to sync automatically, so e.g. messages read on one appear read on both? I am working in VN and the microsoft access server is in the USA.

If you created as an Exchange account on the iPhone (not IMAP or POP) and you have Push on it should all work smoothly; Reading a message on either client should mark the other read (it does on mine). Try deleting the account from the phone, rebooting the phone (to clear out old settings), then go to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendar, add an account and tap Microsoft Exchange and add the account back.
There is a fundamental difference between BB and iPhone that you should be aware of; on the BB you do not sync directly with Exchange; you sync with the RIM server which then syncs with your Exchange server. The iPhone syncs directly with Exchange using Microsoft's ActiveSync protocol. So in some ways they will behave differently. But ActiveSync should manage marking messages as read correctly.

HELP!!!! iMessages on iOS6 is sending messages from my iPhone to both my iPad, my other iPhone and other friends iPhones! and receiving messages from friends on both iPhones and iPad.

Why is the new iOS6 using iMessage and FaceTime and sharing messages across all iPad, both iPhones, and friends messages coming in are sent to all units? SHARING??? How do you fix this?

HI,
On the iPhone and iPad you can "turn off" the Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Received At (and possibly) > Caller ID.
iOS 6 will delete the email/Apple ID across all devices (you get a warning) but presumably Messages is either left alone on the Mac or you add the ID back in again.
AS has been said you can then set up each device with it's own Apple ID

i canot send or receive mail on my iPhone on gmail and roadrunner accounts what should i do??

The only thing I can think of is that Verizon asked you to change your settings to the new servers without actually having set up your account there first.
I would go back to them for resolution. It's def not a phone issue. Like I said, those settings work for me, but I've only been a VZ customer for about 6 months. If you are a legacy client of theirs you might have been on an older email system that they are trying to retire.

Emails on iPhone and Outlook

I have a virgin email account and have set up my iphone to receive these emails. However I'm having problems getting these emails to go to both my iPhone and Outlook on my computer. Sometimes it works fine and I'll find the same email on both devices, however sometimes it will only make it to my iPhone and sometimes only to Outlook. The email is never deleted off the server whichever (or both) device it ends up on.
My settings are:
Host Name: mail.virgin.net
SMTP: smtp.virgin.net
SSL: On
Server Port: 25
Advanced
SSL: On
Delete From Server: Never
Server Port: 995
Does anyone know how I can ensure that my emails make it to Outlook even when they also make it to my iPhone?
Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

Downloading from Gmail to both iPhone and Outllok 2003

Just got my wife an iPhone and have a problem getting emails from her Gmail account to go to both the iPhone and Outlook 2003 running on her Dell.
Here is the hierarchy of "grabs" off the Gmail server:
iPhone ON, Outlook OFF - email goes to iPhone, then to Outlook when Outlook is turned on.
iPhone ON, Outlook ON - email goes to Outlook only, never makes it to iPhone.
Settings - on Outlook, POP, leave copy on server; on Gmail, POP and IMAP both activated, leave copy on server. iPhone tried using both POP and IMAP to retrieve Gmail mesages.
Striking out after looking at all the info I have found on iPhone and on Gmail forums. The current low tech solution is to turn off Outlook when we want messages to be received on the iPhone.
Would appreciate any suggestions.

With a POP account, only one email client can access the incoming mail server at a time.
If Outlook is checking the incoming mail server for new messages and/or downloading new messages received at the incoming mail server while the iPhone's Mail client does the same, the incoming mail server will be temporarily locked preventing the iPhone's Mail client from doing so and vice versa.
This is not a problem with an IMAP account, and a Gmail account can be accessed as an IMAP account or a POP account.
I suggest creating/accessing the account as an IMAP account with Outlook and the same with the iPhone's Mail client, which provides for keeping all server stored mailboxes with the account synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
Gmail provides the recommended account settings for accessing the account as an IMAP account with Outlook and with the iPhone's Mail client.

I have set up two email accounts on my iphone4, one with tiscali, my ISP, and the other on gmail. I am able to receive emails on both accounts, and can send emails from my gmail account, but am "Unable to Send Email" from my tiscali (talktalk) account. I get the error message "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The sender address "name"@tiscali.co.uk was rejected by the server".

I receive emails on my Iphone while Outlook is open on my computer but they quickly disappear. Can this be solved?

No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

Calendar times do not match between iphone and outlook

I have an iPhone 4S, at work I use a PC and Outlook. I have both my PC and my iPhone on the same time zone. If I set an appointment in either calendar the time gets switched in the other. For example: I set an appointment in my iphone calendar for 11am. One my outlook calendar it shows the same appointment at 10am. Both systems are set to the same time zone, what gives? How do I fix this?
Another thing I should add is I am in Saskatchewan Canada. We do not switch time for daylight savings in March an November. So when the time switched in November everthing works great, it is only between March and November whe this problem arrises. Saskatchewan is a setting in timezones for bothe the iphone and outlook so I don't think this should matter. Unless one of the companies does not know Saskatchewan does not change times.
Any suggestions?

Apple puts Saskatchewan into Central Standard Time, which isn't correct. Then when it syncs to Outlook, Outlook puts the appointment into the CST time zone, instead of the Saskatchewan -6 time zone. The problem is Apple's iCloud sending the wrong information to Outlook.
Need a fix for this please.
