Since installing Yosemite can't access my IMAP email accounts - any advice please?

Run a number of email accounts on my MacBook Pro but now my IMAP accounts won't go online since Yosemite instal keeps telling me my passwords don't work - all the IMAP accounts are working perfectly on iPad & iPhone even after recent IOS upgrade - any suggestions or do I need to re-setup the accounts on the MBP?

I think this is a problem is a bug introduced by the upgrade. Not only can I not connect to any email accounts. There's no internet access at all under 10.10.1.
I've tried switching to Wi-Fi on my iMac, but Wi-Fi cannot even see a DHCP server. Tried rebooting and switching back to Ethernet. Ethernet gets an IP, but it still cannot connect to internet.
There's nothing wrong with my router; all other devices on the home LAN conect properly to email servers and urls in browsers.
10.10.1 destroyed internet access on My iMac. No choice but to try a Time Machine restore to 10.10

  • How can I verify my iCloud account if I can not access the primary email account associated with my Apple ID?

    The email address I had set for my Apple ID when I had originally signed up was through my college.  I have been out of college now for a few years and the email account has been deleted. I was trying to set up iCloud on my iPad and iPhone but it says I need to access the account to verify through email.  I have tried to change my Apple ID email to my current email address but it tells me I can not do this either because that email is set up as my rescue email.  How can I change my primary email address for my Apple ID or get my iCloud verified in this situation I'm in?

    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your account'. You will be able to change the non-Apple email address you use as a login. You will then need to log out and in again on all your devices.

  • Can't set up IMAP email account

    I want to set up a new IMAP account in Mail on my iMac. I had no problem doing this on the Mac Mini, Mac Air or iPhone. When attempting the setup on the iMac, there seems not to be an option to select the email account type (i.e. POP3, IMAP or Exchange), as there was on the other devices. Instead, after entering the Full Name, Email Address and Password into the Add Account box, Mail searches for the account, connects to the mail server and adds it as an Exchange account, bypassing the setup steps for each of the incoming and outgoing servers. How can I overcome this and set the account up as IMAP?

    This is perplexing, if only because I have Gmail added as IMAP on all devices, and as mentioned, the new IMAP account added nicely on the other devices.
    At the first screen in your post hold the option key down, Continue will change to Create, you can choose the correct type of account then.
    And I just noticed that you are using Outlook.com email, Imap is not supported by that provider, currently only pop works (on Your Mac)

  • Can't access BT Yahoo email account info

    Hi,
    I am still on BT Yahoo (so the help page tells me). I have a couple of sub accounts and have just received a notification from Yahoo that someone has logged into a subaccount from Belarus. I tried to access my account info both for the main email address and that sub account. In both instances it tells me that that the account page is unavailable.
    Is this part of the transition? Any suggestions as to what I should do?
    Thanks

    I have actually changed the password now on my laptop Apple MacBookPro using Safari. I still can't access the account info on my PC.
    When I click on account info it asks me to put my password in to verify access then IE11 comes up with its

  • Can't access my work email and any sms and mms

    I have a blackberry storm 2 9550. I have 2 email accounts set up on it, my work email and my home email. I also have an icon for sms and mms messages. They are separate accounts and up until yesterday they were working fine. Now both email account icons show my home emails when depressed. Also the sms and mms icon show my home emails as well. Now if I lightly touch my work email icon, it displays the correct work email address but when I depress it it displays my home email address and home emails. What a glitchy device. I would like to view my work emails which is why I got the blackberry. Can anyone help with this?
    Thanks

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Can I access my iCloud email account online on my ipad?

    Hey,
    I know i can access icloud on my 2nd generation ipad, but I want to access it through the browser only--not via mail. (The ipad belongs to my office, not me and so I do not want to download my personal email.)
    Everytime I go to the browser and type in icloud.com/#mail it brings up a screen  leading me to directions for using Mail. I don't want to use mail. Anyway around this?
    Thanks.
    MaryAnne

    Generally no, Safari mobile does not access icloud.com.  However, in the app  store, there are other browsers and some of these may be able to access icloud.com (according to some old posts).

  • How can I access my iCloud email account when I don't remember the password and Apple won't accept the answer to my security question?

    I set up an email account with " @me.com". I get a wrong password message when I try to log in. When I try to change my password I get an INcorrect answer message to the security question I'm asked my birth date so I know I have it right, unless I did a typo when I set up the account. When I choose email me the reset password lnk I cannot retrieve the email because it won't accept the password. I wanted to justemail Apple for instructions but cannot find an email address for that. Any help would be appreciated.

    I tried that without any luck. I was hoping I could get Apple to reset it for me or delete the account so I could recreate it or at least tell me what is listed as my birth date, the security question answer.

  • Deleting IMAP email accounts from iPhone

    I can't delete an IMAP email account form my iPhone.  I got to settings > Mail, Conatct, Calendars > select the email account but I don't get the option to delete.  I can only switch off the mail.  Other mail accounts such as Hotmail and iCloud give me the option to delete.
    It's a secure server email account.
    Any ideas?

    settings < general < profiles
    might be able to delete from there.

    @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!

    What happens if you use the Share button and select Mail?
    What happens when you try? I had to hold there photo there for a short period before it would load.

  • Since installing Yosemite on my Air, I can no longer select a message in my inbox and manually highlight it in color by clicking on a color. Is this a known and fixable problem?

    Since installing Yosemite on my Air, I can no longer select a message in my inbox and manually highlight it in color. Is this a known and fixable problem?

    I no longer recall how it was accomplished in Lion, but the only way I know of to assign a color to a Mail message is to apply a Rule to it.
