Since upgrading to iOS 5 I can no longer add/edit email accounts

Hello All,
I am completly stumped here, Since Upgrading to iOS 5 on my ipad 2 I can no longer access the "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" tab in settings, meaning I can't add my other mail accounts or change settings, and I'm needing to sort this now.
Basically Going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars results in crash to home, I've rebooted, hard reset and returned to factory settings, non of it seems to remedy it, does anyone know of this bug? or does anyone know a work around etc?, I've had a look around altho there are many Mail issues non seem to directly relate to my issue.
Kind Regards
Fish.

I recommend taking it into the store. Sounds to me like you have downloaded an app that has allowed itself to become the "primary" when sending and recieving images.... Apple is seriously dropping the ball!! Just the other day, I downloaded an app called v-downloader... Its an app that allows you to download videos through a 3rd party browser. Well what it did, was automatically place restrictions on my phone... I couldnt send pics, and it removed access to safari, facetime, messages, etc... so maybe try removing any recent app purchases. Also, I would reccomend that you restore your phone. it will redo the update off your computer and come through with less glitches
But I agree, iOS6 has been nothing but problems... I plan on removing the update when I get home

Since upgrading to IOS8 i can no longer open any email attachements. The usual view only tells me witch kind of document is attached. If i say open in dropbox or an other programm, nothing happens

Guess the title should tell everything. It always worked, since update cant open attachements

Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

Since upgrading to IOS8 I can't send or receive emails. Can I uninstall?

Since upgrading to IOS8 I can't send or receive emails. Can I uninstall?

That's strange.
I bet you updated your iPad without using iTunes.
Anyway
No, you cannot uninstall iOS 8 and downgrade to iOS 7, but you can try reinstall iOS 8.
I would suggest you to do it from DFU mode.
Here are some things you need to know before proceeding:
You WILL NOT lose your photos, messages, notes, reminders or anything on your device.
If you choose to backup on iTunes, you will NOT lose your Apps. Anyway, if that happens someway, (it shouldn't happen, don't worry) you can download them later for FREE.
Here's how to proceed:
-First of all, as usual, do a complete backup of your device either on iCloud or your iTunes (i personally suggest iTunes. If iTunes asks to backup Apps, agree.)
-Put your device in DFU [While the iPad is connected to iTunes, press and hold both the home and the power button. When the Apple logo appears, release the power button and keep holding the home button until you see the iTunes logo on the iPad screen.]
-Once your device is in DFU mode, iTunes will automatically detect it as an iPad in recovery mode, so it will ask you to restore your iPad.
-Click on Restore and accept iOS 8 terms and conditions to continue the installation.
-Wait for iTunes to download and install the software.
-Once your iPad restarts, you will be guided to the configuration of your iPad. When it asks you if you want to configure it as a new iPad or restore from a backup, choose the iTunes or iCloud backup depending on where your backup is.
-Wait for iTunes to restore your device.
You're done!
Now test your device and let me know if everything works well!
Cheers, @tooFrozen

Since updating to ios7 i can no longer partially download emails and this is using up all my data plan. How can I make Mail only be partially downloaded again?

YEA! My jurryrig worked! To all with this problem:
You CAN have podcasts in a regular playlist IF you convert them to a standard MP3 first. So, yes, a lot of manual labor
The good news: if, like me, it is a track that you listen to frequently (in my case meditations for sleep and relaxation) then the time is worth it. I will mess with automator later to see if there is anyway to script this! Then, less work for me and more for my mac.
Here are the steps:
Select the file from your Podcast folder.
Change all data you need -- "artist," "album" etc...
Make a copy of the cover art for this file by dragging it to the desktop.
Select the Advanced -> Convert ID3 Tags menu item.
Check ID3 tag version, and select "v1.0" from the drop-down menu.
Drag the file to the desktop (this will make a copy of the MP3 on the desktop)
Delete the file from the iTunes list.
Drag the copy of the file you have on the Desktop back into iTunes.
Search for the file in the Library, and add the cover art again to the file.
Now the file is out of the Podcasts folder and works like a regular MP3 file inside iTunes. You can re-add it back to playlists!

I am having trouble, my icloud is using an old Apple ID, and i can no longer access that email account, or know the password to that, how do i switch it?

Having the email address is not necessary. It is just the username for the device. All you need is that Apple ID and password. Now, if you forgotten the password, then you have more work to do. Since that email is no longer active, you would need to send the reset to your rescue email, if you remember that. Or you will need to contact Apple Security for help.

When I began using Iphone 4, my email address was attached to our provider which was Everest (Surewest). My Iphone still has that email address but I can no longer access that email account and I now cannot unlock my Iphone. Does anyone know how ?

When I purchased my I-phone 4 several years ago, our email service provider was Everest. We no longer use Everest and I can no longer access that email address, but my I-phone is still attached to that email address, so I can not unlock this I-phone. I have purchased a new I-phone and the same email address transferred to it when the information was transferred from my old phone to my new one. In order to trade my old phone in for the new one, I must be able to unlock the old phone, which I have been unable to do since the old email address is not available to me. Please help.

Since upgrading to Yosemite, I can no longer print to my Kodak AiO. The fix on Kodak site does not work.

Since upgrading my Macbook to Yosemite 10, I can no longer print to my Kodak AiO 5250. The fix on Kodak site with Terminal does not prompt to password like it says it will. Macbook has all available upgrades completed. Printer works with a PC.

This is where I found the Kodak fix: http://support.en.kodak.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/49247/selected/true
I'm not really comfortable in 'Terminal' but tried it. Nothing happened after pasting in the first command. The fix says it will ask for password.
I see now this seems to be a pretty common problem, I would have thought Apple would fix it with an update for the number of complaints I've found. Since Kodak is in receivership or bankruptcy, I would think it's unlikely they will have any more solutions. I feel like Yosemite stole my printer.

Since upgrading to Lion i can no longer see other computers in my network and vice versa. What has gone on?

As the title suggests! I can no longer see any of the computers in my network, Mac or otherwise.
I have checked sharing permissions on all required computers and all seems to be good and have disabled firewalls.
I notice a few people have had similar problems with screen sharing but I am not even seeing another station to pottentialy share a screen with!

Since upgrading to Yosemite I can no longer receive e-mail on my Mac or Macbook air but can on my I-pad. Is there a fix in the works?

My I-mac and Macbook air will not receive e-mail since installing Yosemite but I can still get e-mail on my I-pad. I have verified with my ISP that everything is working correctly on their end. Message by Inbox says Mail cannot send password securely to the server. Any fixes?

Hi olejim51,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're not able to connect to your ISPs mail server on your iMac or MacBook Air.
There could be several causes of the error message you're seeing. I would start with the steps in the "Mail Connection Doctor shows one or more red dots in the account Status column" section of this article to troubleshoot the message:
OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages
This article contains a variety of steps that can help resolve an issue like the one you're seeing.
All the best,
Jeremy

Since upgrading toFirefox 4, I can no longer return to my e-mail message from an on-line attachment without shutting down the browser since there is no "close tab" option

Formerly, an e-mail with a website, photo, etc. attachment that I opened required only that I click close tab return to my e-mail message. Since upgrading a few days ago, the only option present is to exit, which now requires re-opening firefox then my e-mail browser. Any website I am examining that I want to close automatically exits me from Firefox.

there should be an X on the right side of each tab. clicking on it should close that tab

I have an old iCloud ID I can no longer access. I do not know the password to delte it. I can no longer access the email account. Help please.

Please help. My new Iphone has synced an old Icloud ID and I cannot delete it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

If Settings>iCloud shows and older iCloud ID (email address) as a result of updating to iOS 7, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

HT1420 How do I authorize music I purchased a few years ago from an account that no longer exists? The music shows up in my library, but it won't play. I can no longer access that email account because it was disabled...anyone can help?

I purchased a bunch of music years ago with an old email account and password and then switched (before I understood about the apple account thing) and now the music will show up on my new computer but I can't authorize it to play because the old account is disabled and I can't remember my password!!!!!!
HELP!!!
Anyone else find a solution to this?
Am I the only idiot who has done this?
Thanks in advance

Hey there~ I had a similar experience, when the email I used to set up the account was hacked and subsequently shut down by Hotmail. If you contacted Support to change the name, but not the email address, you will need to do so again.
Also worth noting~ if, at any time, you synced your device to your work computer, you'll need to contact Support to deauthorize it and enable your current one.
Good luck!

Can no longer add, edit, or delete contacts

I just downloaded the iOS 5 for my 3GS phone. I cannot add or edit contacts now. If I turn the phone off then back on, I get the plus sign to add a contact for a split second, then when the contacts load, it disappears. When I select a contact, the details are displayed, but the 'edit' button does not appear.

What idiot answers their own post? So, after I posted I saw others with a similar problem. I got my add, edit, and delete functions back by going to settings, then selecting iCloud. I turned 'Contacts' to on, selected OK to merge. When complete, I checked my contacts and could then add, edit, and delete. I went back to settings and iCloud and turned the merge off, and went back to Contacts, and could still add, edit, and delete. Hope this helps someone else.
