Syncing mail on iPad, iphone, & mac Pro using Cloud

I use mail app on my Mac Pro to view my gmail account, now with iCloud how do I sync my mail on my mac pro, iPhone, & iPad so they are all updated as one account.  Currently I my mail on my iPhone and iPad update with each, but my mail on my Mac Pro does not.  I thought when I updated to Lion I would be able to use iCloud to solve this problem, but it has not.

That depends on the email service you are using. If the gmail account is an IMAP account, it should work the same as iCloud mail and stay in sync. The only difference being that you would need to set your gmail account up on each device manually.

  • ICloud not syncing calendar properly (iPad, iPhone, Mac)

    Recently my iCloud calendar hasn't been syncing properly to my iPad. I just realized this and turned off/on the calendar option in iCloud (for all of them) but this didn't do anything besides wipe all my appointments from my iPhone. I don't know how to get them to come back. The appointments still show up on iCloud.com as well as on Calendar on my Mac. Just not on my iPad and apparently now my iPhone too. When I add a new appt on my Mac or iCloud, they show up on the other one, but not on iPhone or iPad.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

  • How do I sync mail from my iphone to my ipad

    How do I sync mail between my iphone and ipad?

    Changing from POP3 to IMAP is a function of your email provider. You need to check with them to see if they even offer IMAP. Some do and some do not. If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC/iPad to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples).
    This may help if you do not want to or can not switch to IMAP...

  • Can i use my iPad, iPhone, Mac with 2 independant iCloud accounts (private, business) simultanuously ? How ?

    can i use my iPad, iPhone, Mac with 2  iCloud accounts (private, business) simultanuously ? How ?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Yes you can do that, however you can only have one primary account. You will need to set one account up as a secondary account and choose which account you wish to do this with, since you can only use mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders with a secondary account.
    On your Mac, you would enter the account at system preferences> mail, contacts & calendars, on your mobile device you would enter your account at settings> mail, contacts, calendars.

  • I have a Mac Pro using OSX 10.7.4.  When using apple mail I click on the address icon to obtain email address and nothing happens.  I've restarted both the application and the Mac but still won't open address book.  Any ideas please.

    Assuming you have these accounts set up in Mail, open preferences and under Accounts tab, edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Do you have a .mac address in the list? If so, delete it.
    Are you using iCloud?
    For the troubled account, select the correct SMTP server for that account in the box and check the box to use only that server with that account.

    Hello Halfback71,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5622
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
    Best of luck,

  • IPad sees Mac Pro as WAP

    My network here is one wireless access point (a Billion adsl router/modem), a Mac Pro on the desk connected via ethernet, and a couple of powerbooks, and an iPhone and an iPad connected wirelessly.
    Everything wireless *except* the iPad is seeing my router/modem's real SSIP (wp-lan), and connects just fine. My iPad however doesn't see the router/modem, rather it displays my Mac Pro's network name as the only available network. Connecting to this falsely-named network gives the iPad normal network access.
    If I change the network name of my Mac Pro, the iPad still sees the old name until I do a network reset and reboot of the iPad. After that, the Mac Pro's new name appears as the only wireless network available - and again the iPad connects fine to it.
    The Mac Pro has no wireless hardware - somehow the iPad is detecting its name and using it as its WAP, going through the routermodem (which is what it appears to be really connecting to).
    I have big problems with my iPad and Mac Pro seeing one another with wireless sync, and this might be related - otherwise it's just a curio. Any thoughts?

    Can i use my mac pro as an itunes server just by having itunes open and leaving the machine running?
    Yes. You have to set it up, of course.
    Understanding Home Sharing
    To do this do i need to be running Lion server?
    No.
    Will the machine sleep when nothing is being accessed?
    Not sure. You don't really want a server to sleep.

  • HT201301 How do I copy FOLDERS to or from my iPad/iPhone/iPod touch using iTunes File Sharing?

    How do I copy FOLDERS to or from my iPad/iPhone/iPod touch using iTunes File Sharing?
    I know how to copy files to or from using iTunes file sharing but it doesnt seem to allow copying of folders

    From your PC or Mac, you can copy a folder (and it's contents) into the DropBox folder. It will then sync ans will be available in your DropBox app on the iPad.
    GoodReader includes built in connectivity to DropBox, will pick up the contents and then allow you to easily copy files to other folders within it, as well as open files in other apps on your iPad.

  • TS3999 My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone?

    My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone? despite doing everything as per the support page. I keep on clicking the Add in but it wont "take"?
    It use to,  but no matter what I try nothing works. Using Windows 7. HELP!

    This step is not clear:
    "Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Outlook requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers."
    The link takes me to an Apple page but which has nothing to do with ports.  And there is nothing to explain what it is I am looking for, how to look for it, and how to change it if needed.
    Also, this step:
    "Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices."
    iCloud automatically set up a "[email protected]...." account for me so I see that one plus my original email used to open my Apple account.  And the apple products show my settings under both identities.
    Make sure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook
    This add-in is disabled because it doesn't allow Outlook to function properly.
    Thanks!

  • Everything I own (iPad, iPhone, mac) is set up on wi-fi.  when i bring my work computer home (dell laptop), I cannot get it to keep the connection in a different room. All my other devices work.... does anybody know what i am doing wrong? please help!

    Windows drivers for Intel wireless cards are known problematic.. If you have plenty of signal and it still cannot keep or hold the connection the issue can simply be the type of wireless.
    Another problem is using names that windows does not easily handle.
    eg If you set the TC using apple names, like
    Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule wireless24ad12
    Then to windows this is too long.. it has spaces and it has illegal character.
    Change all names on the TC to suit windows. Short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Also security must be suitable.. I have no idea how old or what OS your dell is, but if you still have issues.. pull off the security on the TC for a test.. if the computer suddenly works, it is not compatible with WPA2 AES. Make sure you also use a password that is mix upper and lower case plus numbers.. avoid special characters and make it 10-20 characters long say.. it is not required to be more than that unless you are paranoid.

  • I have a Mac Pro using Lion, with a SSD for system.  Restored drive from backup.  Now logon password doesn't work.  Account password still works.  Changing password in user group preferences no longer works to change logon password.

    I have a Mac Pro using Lion, with SSD for system drive.  Drive stopped booting, but otherwise appeared healthy.  Restored from system backup.  Now drive seems to work properly, BUT my logon password no longer works.  Password OK for account; can access system preferences, and change user password there BUT logon still refuses to accept password.  No luck changing password for that account after adding new administrator account and logging on from that account.  Suggestions?  Thanks.

    If you redirect Accounts to another location (not on the Boot Drive) you need to direct them back there again after a restore.
    SystemPreferences > Accounts/User&Groups > ...
    ... Unlock the lock, then hold down Control as you click on an Account to get access to the Advanced Options pane.

  • Mac Pro using Mac Mini as Print Server

    Hi all,
    Mac Pro is wired to my network, Mac Mini is Airport connected.
    I'd like to use Mac Mini as a Print Server without keyboard and mouse. I've installed OSXvnc-server on Mac Mini and Chicken of the VNC (CVNC) Client on Mac Pro.
    Mac Pro's keyboard is azerty as was Mac Mini, it's impossible to loggin with Chicken of the VNC, password is not accepted, I connect an azerty keyboard to Mac Mini and I can loggin.
    Typing on Mac Pro in Mac Mini TextEdit through CVNC give weird keyboard layout, not only azerty qwerty different layout.
    In between my two Mac Mini there wasn't any problem using CVNC and the same server but Azerty Qwerty layout.
    Is there any other solution to use Mac Mini as a print server ? What about using Desktop remote connection ?
    Thanks,

    Ah… right! That explains it.
    So what model printers are they?
    Ned,
    Printers are HP Color LaserJet 2550L, HP Photosmart 8250 and Epson EPL-5900L.
    I've changed the VNC Client from "Chicken of the VNC" to "VNCThing".
    Now I can log in from Mac Pro using its Azerty Keyboard as Qwerty Keyboard.
    Once logged in I've set Mac Mini Keyboard to "Extended (or Expanded ?) American" keyboard within System Preferences, with this option Mac Mini see the Mac Pro Keyboard as an Azerty layout...
    I've connected two printers through USB2 Hub connected to Mac Mini and the third one direct onto Mac Mini USB port.
    Back to Mac Pro "System Preferences Fax & Printers", "+", immediatly the 3 printers have been proposed, I've selected them and tested all: it works perfectly.
    Mac Mini is set to "restart after power cut" and is connected for power onto a remoted control power distribution sockets, that means Mac Mini is starting and stopped when printers are powered on and off.
    The sole small issue is that I can't find how to display Mac Mini GUI on Mac Pro at a better resolution than 1024 x 768.
    Thanks for your time,

  • Is there a way to be able to select all mail on iPad/iPhone?

    Is there a way to be able to select all mail on iPad/iPhone all together as opposed to one at a time?

    If you have iOS7 yes. In the mail list you tap 'edit' and then choose hte mails you want, then at the lower right you'll see the option to trash the mails.
    If you do not have iOS7 then you cannot mass delete.
