TS3276 How to receive iCloud mail in Mac OS v10.6.8?

I was able to receive MobileMe email on my MacBook Pro running OS X v10.6.8 even after I converted my MobileMe account to iCloud (through another laptop running v10.7 and an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1).
However, a couple of days ago, I am no longer able to send or receive email through Mail on this laptop and constantly get a pop-up window to re-enter my password.
Does anyone know if this is a persistant problem that will affect Snow Leopard given iCloud's integration into Lion?
Sincerely,
Mike

I use a web based email account, so it's accesible from any device that can browse the web, I find this the best solution than being chained into a locked format or device. And there are plenty of web based email accounts to choose from. Gmail, Yahoo, HushMail etc. etc.,

  • Two problems:  iPhone Calendar is not sync w/ MacBookPro.  Not receiving iCloud mail on Mac but am receiving it on iPhone.

    How can I get the iPhone calendar to sync with MacBook Pro both when it is plugged into Mac and through the cloud?
    What would cause the MacBook Pro to not be able to retrieve mobileme mail when it still retrieves the comcast mail?  Can you help me get my mobileme email back on the MacBook Pro? 

    Thanks. There is another thread that shares a solution that involves deleting ical Library cache files and Preference files.  I"ll see if that works.  ICloud shouldn't be a factor in my case since I don't use it and it's "off" in Preferences. I am encouraged that I don't need to use it to fix this issue based on other's experiences, but we'll see!

    please help
    thanks

    If Apple has disabled or deactivated your e-mail account, then you will not be able to use it. Did Apple tell you why it was disabled?
    If you don't know why Apple disabled it, you'll need to contact Apple Support to find out why.

    You can read your mail online by logging into iCloud.com using your laptop and using the mail feature that you find there.

    I'm not positive about this, but I'd guess that the voicemail service is with your cellular provider i.e. will work w/o the phone instrument.
    Doing the "remote lock" should not AFAIK prevent Find My... from working. But it might discourage a thief and cause him to turn it off before iCloud can snare its location? I'd have guessed NOT i.e. that it would register instantly, but I dunno how fast that works.
    In any case that's your only hope at this point, to monitor your email and see if a "Found!" is received. If it were me, I'd use my netbook to check email all night long and wake me if one comes in. Good luck, and report back!

  • Not able to active iCloud mail on mac

    I am not able to enable iCloud mail on Mac running Mac OS X lion 10.7.2.
    When I ticks Emails and Notes in the iCloud setting on my Mac. It says starting for a very long time and then it seem to end okay. But next time I enter the settings again the check mark has dissappeared.
    Yesterday I managed to create a me.com email address - when I the first time tried to enable iCloud email.
    The new me.com address works fines on the web part of iCloud but not on my Mac and not on my iPhone. Yes iCloud mail is turned on the iPhone.
    I can see in the system log that Mac os i trying to enable mail and then disables it again.

    I got the coversion email from my me.com account but I cant set up mail on my mac.. it says Valid Apple Id but not valid Icloud account...
    I can go to my mobil me /move and get to icloud that way...and do mail ect.... so what gives..  It right on my phone and some what right on the desktop... but still no sync..

    Hi,
    The steps are correct so as Dai said you may need to check your SMTP server. Any error or event received related to SMTP server?

  • TS4002 Is anyone having problems receiving icloud mail on safari?

    Is anyone having problems receiving icloud mail on safari?

    Hey Rick!
    If what you mean by "iCloud mail" your [email protected] account, you should be able to get that in icloud.com via any web browser on any *computer.*
    Your mail is accessed on your iPhone/iPod Touch via the Mail app. You CAN access your mail via Safari on the iPad, but I wouldn't do it that way; I'd just load your account into Mail like you do on the iPhone.
    Good luck!

  • TS3276 Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari.  How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail?

    Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari.  How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail? 

    You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.  This person receiving my email,  while on a Mac with Safari is reading their mail through Safari using Horde--our recent discovery.  Why they chose to do that in unclear. The last email we sent, however, was miraculously read and received and  the attachment was viewed with no problem after we told them our mail was coming from a Mac thriugh Apple Mail.  It seems that telling them that our emails were coming from a Mac and using Apple Mail was enough to make them think that perhaps THEY were doing something not quite right. Thank you both, Level 7 and Level 5. 
    But thank you especially for the meteorologists in the UK for putting forth the correct routes for Sandy these last days, you probably saved a lot of lives.

  • TS3276 How do I reconfigure Mail to the new settings required by Verizon? If I don't comply by Sept. 2013, my mail service will be interrupted.  The following is the message that I received from Verizon:

    How do I reconfigure Mail to the new settings required by Verizon. If I don't comply by Sept. 2013, my mail service will be interrupted.
    The following is the message that I received from Verizon:
    Please update your POP email application’s inbound and outbound server settings as soon as possible to match the new settings below:
    Server                    Current Setting                  New Setting                  SSL Enabled               Port
    POP3 Server       incoming.verizon.net           pop.verizon.net                       YES                   995
    SMTP Server        outgoing.verizon.net         smtp.verizon.net                      YES                   465
    TIPS: Depending on your email application, you may need to turn off Secure Password Authentication and, if applicable, make sure your Authentication method is set to “Password” or “Normal password.” In addition, you may need to restart your device for these new settings to take effect and for your email to continue working properly.

    On 10.7 (most any other versions should be similar) Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select account > Account Information, and confirm that the Account Type at the top is POP. 
    If it's currently working and is shown as an IMAP account, then please stop now, and reply back here with that detail.
    If the account is shown as a POP account, then update the incoming (receive-path) mail server to match Verizon's message if your current settings show a different mail server, then select the Advanced tab to set the port and to enable SSL, and also ensure that the Authentication setting has "Password" selected... 
    Now for the outbound (SMTP) path...  Back over to the Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select account > Account Information tab, and switch the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) selector to "Edit SMTP Server List" item to get to the "outbound" mail settings and select the Verizon SMTP server account from the list shown at the top and select the Account Information tab and ensure that the server name matches what Verizon has now specified, and then select the Advanced tab, select Use Default Ports and check the Use Secure Sockets Layer box.  

  • Issues sending iCloud mail via Mac Mail client

    I'm running OS X Yosemite and use the Mac Mail client to handle mail for my iCloud (mac.com), wish.edu, Gmail, and Outlook accounts.  All work fine and always have... until a few weeks ago.  I came to figure out that while sending email through my iCloud account will show up as a sent email in the sent folder (on my MacBook Pro as well as the web interface and IOS devices) the messages do not get received on the other end.  No error messages.  No returns.  Everything looks normal on my end but the emails never get delivered.
    I logged out of iCloud and logged back in.  I checks the outgoing server info and passwords. I restarted (a lot).  When I run tests, emails sent from the Mac Mail client on my laptop don't get there.  They do get received when sent via the iCloud web interface as well as from my iPhone and iPad.  I even downloaded PostBox and set it up with the exact same settings as Mac Mail, and it sends the iCloud mail just fine.
    This is driving me nuts.  I love Mac Mail, and have used it for years.  I don;t want to have to abandon it for this.  Help?

  • TS3276 can't see imap mail in mac mail

    I have moved my mail to Mac Highway.  After forwarding my mobile me addresses to a new address, I then switched to iCloud for e-mails only, just so the forwarding would continue.  But now even after configuring the new IMAP address, mail says I have 141 e-mails but I can't see them.  How do I get them to download?  (I did go into the "mailbox" menu and clicked on synchronize, but that didn't help and it seemed to have scrambled the sent, drafts, trash and junk mailboxes even though I have disabled my mac mailbox) I'm using 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on a MacBookPro with a 4.5 Mail and I set up an IMAP account with SSL.  I'd appreciate any help.
