Setting up a Comcast email account on the iPad

What is the best way to set up a comcast email account on the iPad?
Do I only have the option to use 'Other' or can I set up using MS Exchange?

Thanks. I had to try and set up for another user. I would never even consider using comcast. So outdated it's almost a joke. I find it easier to only use my iCloud email on any of my devices. I just have any other email accounts forwarded to my me.com address and just reply from there. And if you use Gmail it doesn't play nice with Mac Mail.

  • Have just bought an ipad but have forgotten my gmail password.  I have used this gmail account for my apple id, if I set up a new email account on the ipad , do I have to change this apple id.  Am a very confused novice!!!

    I have recently bought an Ipad but have forgotten my gmail password that I use on my Mac.  I have used this email as my apple ID.  If I now set up a new email account on my Ipad, do I have to change my apple ID as well as my apple password!  HELP A VERY CONFUSED NOVICE!!!

    On your Mac, try to access your gmail account. There should be a link you click for "Forgot My Password". Click it and try to retrieve your password.

  • HT201320 Setting up a Comcast Email account in iPhone5

    How does one successfully set up a comcast email account in your iPhone 5?

    You need to get the required settings from Comcast for creating the account with the iOS email client.

    You actually cannot do anything to your ipad when its locked but look at pictures the time and date, you need to restore it, and if it dosent let you restore, good luck chuck Heres how to restore it: Okay, i only know the itunes way soz, lol. Try to connect your ipad to itunes, if it does let you then you should be able to select the device you have in the corner somewhere, once you do that you should see a screen that looks sort of like your ipads setting, you should have a button that says "Restore" click that and your ipad should be restored. If that dosent work you should try going to your regular office depot or something. Good Luck!

  • How do i set up an outlook email account on my ipad?

    how do i set up an outlook email account on my ipad?

    Have you double checked all of the settings? .... The outgoing mail server setting? Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • I can't set up an imap email account on new ipad.

    I went to settings and did everything required to set up my imap email account.  The account won't send or receive emails.  The internet connection is great.  I can set up a Gmail account with no problems, but the imap account won't work.  I had my ISP reset my password, so that isn't a problem.  Any suggestions?

    hi problem is, when i start on the first screen - name,email add etc it then goes off and gets the info automatically and sets it up as a POP account - how do i change it to IMAP?
    Thanks

  • How do I recover notes lost due to switching my associated email account on the iPad?

    I'm using the original iPad (software version is 5.1.1) and was trying to email a note to a friend. Here is what happened:
    1. The email containing my note did not go thru so I went into the email app. I discovered that my email was not connected  properly so I went into settings and tried to re-enter the password for my gmail account. I still could not log in.
    2. Then I went to gmail on my computer and noticed that there was suspicious activity on my account so gmail forced me to reset my password. Done.
    3. Back to my iPad. Logged into my email with the correct password and it still would not work.
    4. Decided to change the gmail account associated. Logged in properly this time. Went into Notes and my notes disappeared in front of my eyes and switched to the Notes that I have on my iPhone (which are different). At this point I realized that Apple has some stupid setting that links notes to an email account.
    5. Next, I tried to recover my old notes from the original gmail account. Logged in again and this time it worked (I think it took some time for the iPad to retrieve my newly updated gmail password). Notes still did not appear.
    6. Back to settings. Selected the Gmail account, turned off notes, and turned them back on. Still no notes.
    7. Back to my computer. Noticed there is a Notes folder automatically created on the email account. The note I wanted was the only one not in that folder. Thanks Apple.
    Please help!!!

    BTW, I believe the reason why the note I needed was the only one not saved in my Gmail "Notes" folder is because it was the only note created after my Gmail account encountered suspicious activity therby causing my iPad to require a password update.
    Once I switch email accounts, the note was lost (hopefully not forever) since my iPad didn't have time to receive the updated password info from Gmail and push the latest note to the notes folder.
    I'm convinced this is what happened and caused the problem. I just need someone to crack my case for me!

  • HELP: Unable to set up a personal email account on the BlackBerry 8820

    Please advise

    Hello,
    Please avoid any personal information within these forums...they are public, and you have just posted your personal email address for all spammers to troll for and use. Not wise.
    Rather, you need to contact your carrier. To use the proprietary RIM Push email capability, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have Personal Email added to the email setup wizard.
    Good luck!

  • HT201320 how do I set-up a Breathe email account on my iPad?

    Breathe is a pop account, but the settins on the website are wrong. Does anyone else use Breathe for their email and know the correct settings?

    You need to ask your mail provider for the setup info.  Usually it can be found on ther website in their help pages or the like for most email providers.
    If its a known service like hotmail, or gmail, there are preset options for those that fill in the required server info.
    If its a corporate email, the IT department should have this information.

    Any suggestions much appreciated. 

    Rick you need to call them and let them know you have a new BlackBerry and have them register the PIN and IMEI number on your account, and re-establish the BIS account to your SIM.
