Trying to add an aol account to preferences

I am trying to add an account to Mail, Contacts & Calendars in preferences and it won't verify. Help? When I go to answer send an e-mail on a web page it jumps into mail and I want it to go to aol. Will this fix that problem?

MikeK3,
Our sincere apologies, you are unable to setup your corporate email account. Let's get these emails back in business. Do you have the corporate email feature setup on your account? Was it removed when you activated the new phone? Also do you have the encryption that is required by your IT team?

Trying to add my broadband account to my ebilling ...

Hello,
I have two accounts: the line and broadband.
I registered the first, line, account on ebilling.
When I try to register the second, broadband, account I have an error about
"There was a problem adding this account to your profile. Please check your details & try again."
All of the details are correct. Help?

Hi Kiswa,
Sorry to hear of the problems you are having, I can help.
I think the problem that you are having relates to you trying to add your broadband account number with your landline telephone number. This will not work as you already use that telephone number with your landline account number.
Do you use broadband Talk? If so go back to your online billing account and input your broadband account number with your broadband Talk telephone number, this should do the trick and after 48 hours you will be able to view your broadband bills online as well as your landline account.
Unfortunately if you do not use broadband Talk then you will not be able to add your broadband account to your online billing profile. If you have any problems with this please get back to me as I can help.
Cheers
Sean

In trying to add a gmail account, I keep getting the "ussername or password is wrong."

The only email address setup in Thunderbird is a Roadrunner email. I'm having trouble receiving business emails forwarded to that email, so I'm trying to add my gmail account to Thunderbird... I followed the basic direction to add a Mail Account and I I made sure that everything entered was absolutely correct as far am my gmail and my password for it. No matter what I do, I get the same answer: "Configuration could not be verified - is the username or password wrong?"

You have to configure Gmail to allow access to less secure apps. Thunderbird uses the IMAP-protocol, but Google thinks it isn't safe enough.
Go to your browser and login to Gmail. Now click on your profile picture and click Account. Go to the Security tab and click on Settings for Access for less secure apps under Account Permissions. Enable it and Thunderbird should have access to your email...
BTW This is totally safe. There's no need to scratch behind your ear about changing this setting

I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account

I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account to facetime and iMessage. Is there something else I can do?

Hi,
I don't ever remember getting an email when Adding an account.
Apple seems to verify it some other way (a self test to see if it is valid ? an actual email ?)
I tried adding an older @mac.com account that is not a valid email (gained when MobileMe was the Apple service and the @Mac.com registration was used for iChat names).
I then tried to add a Yahoo one.
This got past the first part and said an email has been sent.
As you say this has never arrived.
( checked the web Site for Yahoo Mail as well as my Mail App.)
In each case I also checked the Spam and Junk folders in both places.
I then tried an iCloud ID.
(FaceTime seems to treat the Original Apple ID and the iCloud issued email as separate IDs)
I did not get and email (Although it said it was sent) I did get a Pop up for the FaceTime app asking if I wanted to add an email and a second for the actual email itself. (It turned out it added an @me.com email also issued by iCloud before the @icloud.com was issued.
This is much the way iMessages adds emails when you add the emails to an iPhone, the Mac version gets pop ups.
I recently had something similar in Messages that might be related.
In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) it seemed it could be any Apple ID that was used.
In Messages 8 it seems this has to be an iCloud linked one.
The @mac.com one I used above could not be added to iMessages either when I tried it about two months ago.
It might be one I have removed the creating/Recovery email so that i could create another Apple ID.
The name continues to work in Messages as an AIM valid screen name but I could not add it as the iMessages account and got sent to iCloud to "register" it but ran into problems that I have not sorted out yet.
EDIT.
Checked the Apple ID site and the @mac.com email I used has no linked Alternative/recovery email.

Hello there, shallotte07.
The following iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant should get you through all the steps to set up mail:

If iPhone can't find your service provider's settings, this article can help you obtain the necessary account settings from your provider.

Forced to Enterprise Activate when trying to add E-Mail account

Hello,
I recently got a BlackBerry Torch 9860 running OS 7.1 and I'm trying to add my personal GMail account. However, every time I try to add an email from the setup menu, it prompts me to "Enterprise Activate".
Is there a way to disable this? My phone is a personal one and it isn't tied to any company.
Thanks,
gajariam
Solved!

Nope. Once you get the blackberry data plan, you won't have to do anything with that prompt.

2 items: 1) importing cvs columns do not match t-bird columns 2) error msg when trying to add 2nd email account

Hi and thanks in advance for lending a hand.
Issue #1
Followed instructions at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Df8mRL3TBs to import cvs to t-bird – but
My cvs headings are not name, email m chat name, org, additional email etc etc
Why are my columns names not showing up?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Issues #2
Adding second email address in thunder bird
email address #1 works fine - but trying to add 2nd one – having error msgs poop up.
1st error msg is:
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIMsgIncomingServer.verifyLogon]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://messenger/content/accountcreation/verifyConfig.js :: verifyLogon :: line 98" data: no]
Pressing “done" again yields different error reply: Incoming server already exists.
[end of error msgs]
Have tried box1121.bluehost.com as well as mail.bikempowered.com for server hostnames - various ports and SSL’s
The Tech at blue host claimed there this was a bug known to thunderbird – and that a solution is known to be needed.
Seeking solutions - also I’m 90% Luddite - so please if at all possible, but things in “for Dummies” mode
With gratitude and hope,

About .csv check your .csv-file as a text file.
Is the first line your column-names separated with a "," ?
It should be. When you import, mark that 1st line has column-names
Then move Tbird's names around until they correspond with yours. Your names will not be imported.

Error while trying to add a calendar account

Dear all,
I've already added a public calender (ics) to my iPhone but now I need your help.
I want to add the calender of my fellow (our both calenders are served by Exchange 2003). After filling out all the required fields (Server, description, user and password) my iPhone checks the account information and comes back and ask me again for user name and password.
The error messages from the console are:
Mon Aug 10 11:00:04 unknown Preferences[111] <Warning>: SubCal|Task <SubCalCheckValidityTask: 0x490f870> finished with error: Error Domain=SubCalRefreshCalendarTaskErrorDomain Code=6 "Operation could not be completed. (SubCalRefreshCalendarTaskErrorDomain error 6.)"

I didn't found any hint to solve this problem. I would be very happy if you could help me.
Thanks and best regards

Are you trying to create a new Model or trying to import a Model ?

Getting blocked trying to add an Exchange Account (Corporate email)

Hi, I am trying to set up my new Droid Maxx for my work email, but when it hits the expected stop to add encryption, it instead displays a message that encryption is required by my IT department. Um, I KNOW! Is there a setting, or something I am missing to complete the process? I've successfully done this on my older Droid 2 and Droid 4, so it's not like I don't know how ... just stumped on this one!

MikeK3,

I'm trying to add my gmail account to iCal

I follow the instructions an Apple store "genius" guy told me he said got to iCal-Preferences - Add Account - put in my gmail account name - password and after reading other peoples suggestions I put for "server" info: what is below and instead of adding I get this message.....
Calendar https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user//www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user could not be found.
I don't know what to do to get my gmail on my ical.....

Until Bob Timmons gets back to you, first decide what you would like the Express to do. I understand you want it for AirPlay remote speakers, which you can certainly do.
I am assuming that you are not using an Apple AirPort router; if that's not the case stop here and let me know.
If your existing router is not an Apple AirPort Base Station, the Express:
can "join" an existing wireless network as a client, for the sole purpose of streaming music. If that's what you want to do, do not connect it to your router with an Ethernet cable.
can "extend" an existing wired network to serve as an additional wireless access point, which can also stream music. If that's what you want to do, connect its WAN port to an available LAN port on your router using an Ethernet cable.
Then, "hard reset" the Express according to the instructions below, and configure it. The prompts should be self-explanatory. If you run into trouble, describe which of the above two configurations you decided upon, and the point at which you're getting the "unexpected problem".
To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then gently press and hold its tiny reset button. Don't apply any more force than required to feel a tactile click. Keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

I'm trying to add another mail account to T-bird but keep getting an "Incoming server already exists" error.

T-bird was hanging when trying to get email from my elitemail.org account (sub-domain of Fastmail.fm) so I tried deleting the account and starting over. I "thought" I cleaned out all instances of the incoming/outgoing servers and passwords, but apparently there's still a file that is hanging on to them somewhere. Before doing anything though, I 'did' .tar.bz2 the .thunderbird dir so I wouldn't lose any mail. Heck, I even went so far (after getting the above error the first time) of removing T-bird from the system, and deleting the .thunderbird dir! So I'm still getting the error, even on what is effectively a new install. What I want to know is, what file do I need to edit or delete (even AFTER backing up then deleting the .thunderbird dir) so Thunderbird really IS starting from scratch? Migrating my old email dirs is easy - but apparently getting rid of the mail servers takes an act of Congress.
Running Thunderbird 3.1.9 on Salix 13.37.

As far as Thunderbird is concerned, you can keep the profile (and any existing mail in that profile.
In any case, it should work with a new profile. Deleting the .thunderbird directory would cause Thunderbird to create a new profile when starting the next time. It would then come up empty, and you'll need to create an account again.
Is this what you did?

I can't get Thunderbird to recognize the password to the gmail account I am trying to add.

I am trying to add a gmail account to Thunderbird that is already hosting several gmail accounts. No matter what I do, I can't get Thunderbird to recognize the password. I admit, I got is wrong a few times, but I did get the right one, and it was typed in perfectly several times, as well as copy and pasted. The password worked fine to log into the account directly, but not into Thunderbird. I tried changing the password, and that did not work either. I have tried adding this account in Windows 8.1 as well as Ubuntu 14.04, and the results have been the same. In Ubuntu, I tried adding another account I needed added, and that went without a hitch. The only think I can think of is the address I am trying to add is linked to a email address for a website being transferred to me that is hosted by Yahoo and its business mail. I tried adding the yahoo account directly, but I add the same issues with passwords, but I suspect most of you know that is because Yahoo is simply sucking more and more in an attempt to become irrelevant.

I cannot believe the swiftness of your the help on this forum, within seconds you guys fixed the problem, and the account was added with no further issues. The people on this forum rock!!!!!
I am now beginning to suspect it indeed had to do with that first lot of wrong passwords.
