Search in body of mails doesn't work with iCloud

Apple says "If you’re looking for a specific email, you can now search in the body of messages." on its iOS 5 page. This is true for my Gmail and Fastmail account (both IMAP) but NOT for iCloud/MobileMe.
Can anybody confirm this?

I would also like to know what's going on with this. Very irritating that search (in email) is so hit n miss when Apple get is so right on the desktop software.

  • ICloud Mail doesn't work with Maverick

    Hi
    I bought a new iMac last week and migrate my profiles from my old MacBook Pro.
    After I configured iCloud i noticed that Mail doesn't work. All other stuff like calender, contacts etc works fine...
    Mail seems to not load the icloud account. But with other mail accounts like hotmail it works.
    Than i made a new user profile and tried if icloud work there. And it works. So my problem must be on my user profile.
    I tried to restore permissions, without success.
    I installed Maverick again, without success.
    Please help me, I'm getting crazy.

    Hello antoniode,
    Congratulations on your new iMac!  Also, thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iCloud email account. 
    You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already.  I recommend continuing with the steps in the sections titled "If you can't send mail in OS X Mail" and "If you can't receive mail in OS X Mail" in the following article:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Delete email in mavericks mac mail doesn't work with google app

    Hello,
    I've got a macbook pro retina. I've received it with mavericks pre-installed, I've done the update to 10.9.1.
    I got a google app account it was use previously with mac mail on mac os X 10.8.
    I've resetup it with the all mail settings imap shown. The "Auto-Expunge on" is set to  "- Immediately update the server. (default)"
    The problems are:
    - each time I delete a message in inbox it re-appear if I click on another folder (like sent) and go back to inbox.
    - if I move a message from inbox to a local folder it doesn't move it, It copy it. Before mavericks that feature was working.
    Could you tell me what are the right settings in google app mail to set to work well with mavericks?
    Thanks a lot, this new mac mail app is hard to work with...

  • Att.mail doesn't work with firefox yet is great with IE or google chrome. Won't delete,move or reply

    yahoo comes up, then in switching to mail, the mail appears and I can look at each piece. However, the delete, move, and reply buttons are not responding. Also, I can't generate a new message. The system works fine with IE or Google Chrome.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

  • I updated to firefox 9.0.1 and my yahoo mail doesn't work with firefox. This is a serious issue for me.

    A few days ago I updated to firefox 9.0.1, and when I am using firefox in the My Yahoo account, I can see my emails, but when I click on one to open it, I am asked to put in my password for yahoo. This shouldn't occur because it already know who I am because I can see my name there and my emails etc. When I put in my password it doesn't accept it.

    The location bar is also known as the address bar, it is where you enter web addresses.
    When it crashes does it submit any crash reports? If it does can you post some of the crash report IDs as that may help somebody identify the cause of the crashes. For details of how to get the crash report IDs see the [[Firefox crashes]] article.

  • Mac email doesn't work with iCloud

    Since the move from mobileme email to iCloud I can only get email accounts working for a short period, and sometimes not at all on agiven day.
    What we had on mobileme was a family acount with 4 active email accounts.
    These all worked fine and all came in as seperate mailboxes to the mail client on the Mac. Nice and exactly what we wanted.
    Since iCliud these accounts all work fine on IOS devices where the account matches the appleID logged in on the account.
    Email on the Mac is different. I am often asked for the password for the individual accounts registered within email. Sometimes these passwords are accepted and I can send and receive email, sometimes they are not. Neither of these things sound right to me a) why only ask sometimes? b) if it works once why doesn't it always work.
    I have tried (over 20 times now - waiting for varying lengths of time up to several days) the following to find a solution:
    1. Finding a post on these support forums or elswhere that says it has the definitive way of getting the whole account thing sorted out. It does seem many people have had issues moving email to iCloud.
    2. Creating new accounts for the email addresses required following the instructions exactly and having someone else check that I am.
    3. Trying the account immediately (actually email just does this). Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't
    4. Waiting  and trying it later. Sometimes the account will work for a couple of days but eventually everything reverts to the asking for and rejecting/accepting the password.
    5. Going back to step 1
    Other iCloud services work fine e.g. Calendar synch.
    Any help gratefully received. This has been going on for months.

    I'm sure you migrated the primary MobileMe account to iCloud, but did you migrate each of the other email accounts as well.  Just migrating the primary account does not migrate the others.

  • Mac mail no longer works with iCloud

    Since installing icloud, my mac mail is no longer working.

    You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
    Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

  • Alias created on MobileMe doesn't work with iCloud

    I had a mobileme account with which I have created an alias.
    To try to use iCloud I created another account with an apple id. In this account I created a new mail  with "@me.com", that is the same alias of mobileme account.
    When I transfert my mobleme account to icloud my alias works fine, but I do not succeed to verify any Apple service with my alias.
    I try Facetime, iMessage, etc...

    Dear Sjazbec,
    All settings are correct and it worked before. That's why there are some documents om the cloud.
    A couple of days ago, numbers and pages started to switch off their own iCloud-button! Since then, it is not possible to create new documents or spreadsheets because they won't be sent to the cloud.
    I can't reach the documents in the cloud with my iDevices, but only with my iMac.
    This way, the cloud is useless to me and even causing troubles, because the documents on the cloud are important to my work.
    Can someone please help?

  • Mail app not working with iCloud, new emails and recently sent not showing at all in the app.

    I've been using the iCloud mail for quite some time now

    A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
    https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
    On the iPhone, tap Settings.
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.
    Enter the following incoming mail server information:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail.
    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

  • HT204053 my apple ID doesn't work with ICloud. I can't register for Icloud

    My apple ID and password work for everything else but when I use it to start up Icloud it  says This Apple ID's email address cannot be verified. Change your apple ID's email address at appleid.apple.com to sign into iCloud. I've tried resetting my password but hate to change my Apple ID.

    I tried everything you said but after I downloaded ICloud on my computer and tried to log in with the Apple ID that is my email which works on everything else, it says "the Apple ID email address cannot be verified. change your apple ID email address at appleid.apple.com to sign into Icloud"        But I don't want to change my apple ID to a different email because that is my email.

  • HT201250 Does time machine work with iCloud?

    I'm new to Apple - not sure if Time Machine can work with iCloud instead of an external HDD. It would seem that iCloud would be the best place to backup to since it is available - just get on the internet and its there.

    TIme Machine doesn't work with iCloud.
    OS X Mountain Lion: Disks you can use with Time Machine
    The backup volume has to be large enough to hold at least one copy of all the data you want to back up. The more space it has, the longer your backup history will be. It does not have to be any particluar multiple of the size of the volume(s) you back up.

  • HI, I just got a Macbook Pro.  It's great but my mail doesn't work at all.  It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages,  then won't delete them,  then won't save them to folders.  Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck.

    If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them.  800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly.  Hope this helps.

  • Sending in Mail doesn't work, Entourage does, Why?

    Sending emails in Apple's Mail doesn't work, yet Microsoft Entourage does, Why?
    This is the conversation I've been having with my server tech, and they can't find the reason why I can send mail in Microsoft Entourage no problem, yet Apple Mail receives but not able to send any email what so ever..
    Very frustrating.

    I'm having a heck of a time trying to SEND emails on the SilverSpiritHomeServices.com system.
    I'm using a Mac.
    I can do it in Microsoft Entourage, yet I can't do it in Mac Mail (this is the program I need to be able to use).
    Receiving email it works fine, just sending it only works in Entourage.

    Hello,
    That definitely seems odd. Since it works fine with Entourage, that would indicate the server is working properly. Additionally, I've tested the SMTP server from here (on a Mac) and am able to connect. I do not have a valid user to send email with, but I can try it if you want to provide me with the one you are trying, temporarily.
    As always, if you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Have a great day, and thanks for choosing Rackspace Managed Hosting!

    If you use your ISP’s own email service (instead of a third-party such as Gmail), sometimes it may not work if you roam to another Internet access point, such as a cafe with wireless Internet. Check with your email provider that the settings they give you will work if you plan to roam."

    Hello Carl,
    Your server only supports CRAM-MD5 and PLAIN authentication. You will need to use plain text authentication. I have never configured mac mail so I do not know how to configure this, you may want to speak with someone a apple support if you have trouble.
