TS3992 why does my e mail not back up on icloud its set to do so on my phone but doesnt back up to icloud

why does my email not back up to i cloud from my iphone 4 it's set to do so in my icloud settings on my phone and backs up contacts but not emails

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Your mail isn't backed up in iCloud. If you are using your @me.com or @icloud.com, all your mails are stored in iCloud, and when you delete them from here, you can't recover them. Mails aren't backed up onto iCloud. When you have Mail turned on in Settings > iCloud, it just means that you are using your @me.com or @icloud.com address on your iPhone

    Why does my aol mail not sync properly with the Droid Razr? Never had the problem with blackberry but now I deal with a great deal of spam & duplicating tasks

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

  • Why does my new ipad2 not have ios5 or cloud?

    why does my new ipad2 not have ios5 or icloud ?

    There are still some stock being sold with iOS 4 installed, but they should be getting rarer - if you don't have iOS 5 (and therefore the iCloud) then you can update to it for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972

    If you are not on your home LAN you are limited by the bandwidth of the site you are using. While the WiFi speed is 54 mbps, that is shared among all users on that access point, so you don't get all of it. In addition, you are limited by the speed of the link connecting you to the Internet backbone. For most commercial WiFi sites this is rather slow; a T1, for example, is 1.55 Mbps, and it is also shared. So doing the same calculation, and assuming you are the only one using that connection, it would take about 13 hours to sync 7 MB. In addition, to do that, your computer with your bookmarks, music, etc. would have to be configured as a server accessible from the Internet, so any of the world's millions of hackers would potentially have access to your computer.
    The reason email can sync is that it is stored on your ISP's server, and the iPhone can retrieve it from there. Your bookmarks, notes, music and videos are NOT on your ISP's server, so you would have to make your own computer a server, get (and pay for) a fixed IP address (typically ~$100/month), and know enough about what you are doing to configure it.
    If you are on your home LAN your WiFi speed is 54 Mbps (for 801.11G routers), but you require 2 way transfers; one from your computer to the LAN and one from the LAN to your iPhone. Ethernet protocol also adds overheard, so the effective speed of a wireless LAN is around 25% of the theoretical maximum bandwidth. Thus, your actual throughput is 25% of 54 Mbps, or 13.5 Mbps, and that is split in two by the need for your computer to upload while the iPhone is downloading, giving a total throughput of about 6 Mbps. Doing the same calculation again you get 20 minutes. But you are next to your computer anyway, so why not just plug it in and do it in 3 minutes?

  • Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

    I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

    Katrina UK
    It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

    Does it even really matter...?
    Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
    Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

  • Why does my airport extreme not recognize my cable modem anymore?

    Why does my airport extreme not recognize my cable modem anymore?

    Have you tried resetting the modem? Power it down and let it rest a moment, then power it back up again.
    Also, some ISPs require physically detaching their cable from the modem for it to be fully reset. Literally unscrew it from the modem. Try that, in conjunction with powering it down.
    Don't do anything with your Extreme, other than powering it down too, in the event the modem reset does not help. Reconfiguring it may be necessary but this is not justified quite yet.

  • Why does my iPad 1 not open documents in pages from my mac after downloading update on pages on mac?

    Why does my iPad 1 not open documents from my updated mac-pro laptop pages since i updated the mac. Have updated latest pages for iPad 1 it could and still not able to open docs as i could before update on mac-pro

    The most recent version of Pages that you can run on the iPad 1, running iOS 5.1.1, is not compaible with the newest version of pages on the Mac.
    If you had the old version of Pages on your Mac, and off hand I can't remember what version it was, you should still be able to use that version and then it will be compatible with the Pages app on the iPad. I updated to the newest version of Pages some time back but was able to keep the older version as well.

  • Why does my mini iPad not receive emails?

    Why does my mini iPad not receive email ?

    We need a bit more to go on than that please.
    Have you tried to reboot the app? Double tap the home button, when you see the previews for the apps on the screen, scroll sideways if needed to bring the mail app up on the screen. Flick it up and off the screen to close it. Then single tap the home button or tap on the home page preview to exit the mode.
    If that doesn't work, try to go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars, delete and then re-add your mail info
    Beyond that we need more details to go on to offer help.

  • Why does 4.5 mail keep removing emails that are 10 days old

    Why does 4.5 mail keep removing  emails that are 10 days old.

    Ten days isn't an option I'm familiar with; perhaps it's a new option in Lion? Prior OS's had choices like one day, week, month, etc.
    If not being apparently set in your email client, it's possibly been set or is set by default at the server level. To check and change that you'll have to access it directly, usually by logging into that domain directly.

  • Why does it say sim not valid?

    why does it say sim not valid?

    Because you're trying to use a sim card from a carrier other than the carrier your phone is locked to. That's why. To use different sims, from different carriers, you need to get your phone officially unlocked.
    If you got this message & are using the correct sim, that's a different problem. If so, post back.

  • Why does my card reader not work on my iPad since upgrade?

    I use my iPad mini to download photos from my camera when I'm on the road. In the summer I bought the "3 in 1 Card Reader Adapter Cable Camera Connection Kit, 3 Port Card Reader for iPad 4 and iPad Mini by Eurekka" and it worked wonderfully. I was able to download photos (jpg and RAW) directly to the iPad and off the camera, and once home it was a flawless upload to my iMac.
    However, once I upgraded to iOS 7 last week I get a message saying the device is not supported. What gives? Will this be fixed or will Apple products only accept Apple accessories from now on?

    No but I was just trying to find a way in to your help desk. I didn't find 
    your web page very helpful in this regard.
