TS3276 My gmail or icloud mailbox has no incoming mail, showing that the mailboxes are connected but nothing coming in, mailbox rebuild option is greyed out. any ideas?

My mail has suddenly stopped receiving any incoming mail, I have gmail and of course icloud but nothing coming in or going out. I've ran the connection doctor and it's showing that the connection to the internet is fine, so where is the mail?
Cannot rebuild mailbox as the option is greyed out...any ideas?
I can access my gmail via the internet so posts will be seen.
thanks, any advice will be welcome as i'm at a loss.

I've ran the connection doctor and it's showing that the connection to the internet is fine
What about the connections to the mail servers?

  • Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?

    Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?
    "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable"
    Offered solution doesn't work:
    Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.
    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    I can't download photographs from my iphone or my digital camera.
    Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?
    There is a possibility that when I went to update applications that I started to install Mavericks which I then interrupted and cancelled. I am not definite that this caused this problem but it was at about the same time as when this problem started.
    Many thanks,
    Ed

    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • HT4436 I m unable to create an apple id for iCloud as its showing that the limit for creating a free id has been exceeded

    I m unable to create an apple id for iCloud as its showing that the limit for creating a free id is no longer available on your device

    Yes.  On the other iPhone go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  This will delete the account from the phone but not from iCloud.  Any data being synced with iCloud on this phone will be deleted from it when you delete the account, but will sync back with you sign back in later.
    After deleting the account, set up a new one with a different Apple ID.  Then delete this account from the phone and sign back into the original account to sync the iCloud data back to this phone.  You can then go to the other phone (the one that doesn't have any remaining accounts on it) and sign into the new account you just created on your other phone using the ID you used to create it.

    got an anti virus that thinks it should scan email. Turn that function off.
    Have a firewall, check that Thunderbird has full internet access, not some Auto rubbish that somehow fails.

  • I have the ICloud icon.  When I try to sign in using my Apple ID, the message says that the ID is valid but I don't have an account.  How do I get an an Icloud account?

    I have the ICloud icon on my PC - Windows 7 - and the program.  When I try to sign in using my Apple ID, the message says that the ID is valid but I don't have an account.  How do I get an an Icloud account?

    You can't create an iCloud account on your PC.  You have to first create an iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher).  After creating the account on one of these devices you can use the ID to sign into the account on your PC.

  • HT204053 How do i make icloud work if my husband and I share the same itunes account but we dont want to get each others contacts, messages, apps etc?

    How do i make icloud work if my husband and I share the same itunes account but we dont want to get each others contacts, messages, apps etc?

    Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
    Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account.

  • I have broken my screen and cannot access my iphone. I have an icloud account which I have used to back up my phone previously but nothing is showing on the website. How can I backup my data?

    I have broken my screen and cannot access my iphone. I have an icloud account which I have used to back up my phone previously but nothing is showing on the website in contacts etc. As I can enter my pin I cannot connect it to a laptop. Is there anyway of backinh up my data, pictures etc?

    No there isn't. If you check iCloud, you are not showing any backups at all? Did you have the phone set to sync contacts in iCloud, or were you just backing up to iCloud? If you were just backing up, then you should be able to access the backup, but if you were not syncing, then you probably cannot see the contacts in iCloud. You would have to wait until you restore from the backup to see them. You will probably have to go onto the iCloud website to erase and remove the device from Find My iPhone if you want to clear it off.

  • Why can't i sign in on icloud acct/ it keeps on telling me that the maximum free accounts have been activated on my iPhon

    whenever i try to log in to my icloud on my iphone is always says that the maximum free acct had been reached to this phone, i already have my apple id and it was validated eer since had my phone. even using it to download some apps but everytime i try to log in to icloud i keep on getting that error, already updated the phone as well but nothing seems to change with that error. pls help thanks!

    Signing in with a new ID creates a new iCloud account.  However, each device is limited in the number of iCloud accounts that it is allowed to create.  Once you reach that limit, you cannot create another account.  All you can do is re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • Ipod touch has stopped working. the screen showes that it need to connect to power.

    ipod touch has stopped working. the screen showes that it need to connect to power.

    Hey there our3goldens,
    It sounds like you are unable to successfully boot your iPod Touch. I would recommend these steps specifically from the following article, named:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • After upgrading to the latest itunes, the text associated with syncing a device is gone.  The buttons are there but no text.  Also the toolbar for iTunes has disappeared.

    That's consistent with trouble with the Segoe UI fonts on your system.
    If you're using Windows XP or Windows Vista, try Vortical's technique from the following post:

  • Hello my battery power has a x on it and the lights are not working and its making a noise - Please assist

    Hello my battery power has a x on it and the lights are not working and its making a noise - Please assist

    The Battery icon with the "X" indicates that your computer does not detect a battery and is operating on electrical power from AC since your computer is plugged in. If your battery is installed but not detected that indicates a problem: 1. the battery is dead; 2. the battery connector is not functioning properly. You mention that there is no response from the indicator lights so it could be either of the two possibilities. The noise is not a good sign. Best to shut it down safely while you can to prevent any possibility of damage and get it to an Apple Genius Bar or Authorized Apple Service Provider to discover the nature of the problem

  • Excel cannot open the file beacuse the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file [help]

    Hi,
    I have a excel file that I have been using since beginning of year.
    Yesterday, I tried to open it but a message comes out "
    Excel cannot open the file beacuse the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file"
    After I click yes, the page is blank. The file is about 400kb in size.
    I have try open and repair and third party repair program and not working also.
    I would appreciate a lot if you can help me.
    Thank you very much.

    Per your post, this problem might be caused by malware on the affected machine.

    In order to clean your machine, run Microsoft Safety Scanner (http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx) to kill the malware, and then repair Excel file itself.
    If this is not the case, feel free to post back and let me know. Thanks.
