My mail account from icloud will work if I only disconnect my wifi in my iphone and only use internet plan from my carrier. Anybody else with this problem??

I've been having the same problem since iCloud appeared and complicated an otherwise trouble-free system. Doubling frustrating is that iCloud duplicates my .Mac account so I get two of everything in my Inbox. I turned off iCloud and now mail at least goes out but I can't delete the duplicate account.

  • I installed the new version of iTunes today. It's 12.1.1. After completing the installation, including restarting my computer, I was no longer able to use Windows Internet Explorer. Has anybody else experienced this? If so, how did you fix Explorer?

    Never heard of that being caused by installing iTunes. Try asking on a Windows forum. This isn't a problem with iTunes or any other Apple product. If you believe it is, uninstall iTunes. If the problem persists, you'll have to seek advice on a Windows forum or contact Microsoft for support.

  • After installing Mountain Lion doesn't external hard drives mount or stay mounted. Anybody else with this major problem?

    After installing Mountain Lion doesn't external hard drives mount or stay mounted.
    I have tried resetting my Mac's PRAM but the problem still remains.
    Even USB memory sticks are unmounted efter a few seconds.
    Anybody else with this major problem?

    I have the same problem, although mine has not been solved by ESET update, finder settings, PRAM & SMC resets or anything else.
    Don't get it, my external hard drive still works on both my housemates computers - one macbook pro (with snow leopard) and one dell, just not on mine with mountain lion.
    Any ideas for me guys?

    A brief search. Or even glancing at the "more like this" list to the right will show that this is a known problem and there is no current solution. Workaround includ saving to the desktop and importing from there or opening in Quick Look and adding to iPhoto from there

    halien,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Have you added any software recently? Say, anything that shows up in System Preferences> Others, which might suggest a problem trying to load some system-level extension with permissions issues? Or a third-party softwar einstaller that asked for an administrative password?
    Depending on the OS version and the third party software you have installed, you may be able to fix things by running Disk Utility> Repair Permissions on the hard drive (ignore the "we are using special permissions" reports).
    (Your can use the My Settings link under your user name in the box on the left of the Discussions pages to add such useful info as your OS version, RAM, CPU speed, and the like.)

  • I am unable to uninstall itunes (to install new version as well). It says I don't have sufficient access rights yet I am the Adminstrator. Anybody else with this problem? Is there a fix?

    I have had a problem updating iTunes on my PC using Windows 7. It will not allow me to uninstall the current version of iTunes (10.2.2). The first Windows Installer box says: "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation."
    Then a Programs and Features box comes up and says: "You do not have sufficent access to uninstal iTues. Please contact your system administrator."
    Well, I am the Administrator yet it won't let me do this uninstall. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Dave

    Hmmmm. Nothing instantly springing out at me as looking wrong there.
    Let's try reregistering the Windows Installer service.
    First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Any better luck this time?

  • HT1277 why i cannot set up my exchange account into my iphone 4s.  everything that needs to input has been provided right, but error says cannot get email not connected to the srver.where seems to be the problem?pls help.btw,i have an outlook for macbook

    please help me find out the solution to the problem.
    My iphone 4S was not able to fetch mails from the server ( outgoing and incoming)
    I was trying to configure my exchange account and follow all the procedures correctly but am having trouble in sending and receiving mails as the error says " cant get mails cannot connect to the server?  where seems to be the problem?
    Have read from the support services that if you using a Pop3 account into another device which I did ( my email was configured via outlook for mac in my macbook) there might be a lock out problem and cannot get emails on the second device which is my iphone?  ( I want to set up my exchange account to my iphone so wherever and whenever i go i cant still access to my email easily. Please help.

    No one seems to be hearing what Big Q is saying.
    He can pair his iPhone to his Macbook, but cannot CONNECT. He's NOT asking for alternative solutions, like Wi Fi.
    I am able to both pair and connect my one one Macbook to my other one, but I can only pair but not connect my iPhone or iPad to either Macbook. So I have the same problem. But I can pair and connect my Macbooks to other Bluetooth devices, like my ancient Nokia cellfone, or my Bluetooth HP printer.
    It's irrelavent that I can instead use a direct USB cable or Wi Fi between my Macbooks and my iPhone/iPad - why can't I use Bluetooth? If Apple does not allow Bluetooth between it's Macbooks and other Mac devices, then why have Bluetooth at all? Does my iPhone have Bluetooth only so that I can pair and connect to my my non Apple mobile handsfree car kit, or communicate easily with the dreaded Apple enemy Samsung, or what?
    Make no mistake , I am a diehard Apple fan, but this Bluetooth non compatibility issue appears shortsighted and seemingly pointless. Why does Apple not just say why they created the non compatibility, or have a message on the Bluetooth setup programme which simply and clearly says "don't bother wasting hours of your time trying to pair and connect your iPhone to your Macbook, because we don't allow that anymore, reason being that............"?
    As a first time user of this Forum I am surprised at the intolerant and highhanded tone of some of the replies  to what is a legitimate question, that is obviously plagueing many, many other Apple users.

  • HT204380 I have 8 mb of broadband and am unable to use facetime as it loses the connection. The same happens with Viber. This seems to have happened since the last software update. Has anybody else had this problem.Regards, Kevin

    I have 8 mbs of broadband but it does not seem to be adequate for using Facetime or Viber. I lose the connection via Facetime every few minutes and Viber doesn't work at all. It always says that the network connection is poor yet it's showing a full signal on the phone. It was a lot better before the last software update. has anybody else had this problem.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

    Hi StuNYC,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices?
