User can't seem to add a second email account

I have a client whose device has until now activated on a BESX.  He now has a Z10.  He managed to get his email account added using Exchange & Active-Sync as email, contacts and appointments is really about the only things they need.
The user with the Z10 cannot seem to add his personal account to the phone.  He has spoken with a Blackberry technician, (don't know how that was done without paying for it.) and he was told that although his Z10 is not activated on their BESX it is still using it and Blackberry Balance needs to be enabled for him to be able to add a personal account.
I can't understand how that will work if it's not activated on the BESX let alone the version of BESX doesn't seem to have Blackberry Balance available as it's 5.0.2, and the Z10's aren't supposed to activate unless it's a BES10 server.
Wondering if the data plan is set for a BES which might be preventing addition of personal accounts without first being activated on a BES.  However if that was the case then the account he got setup probably shouldn't have worked.
I haven't even seen one of the Z10's so I have no idea how to walk him through instructions on adding a personal account.  I believe he is trying to add a GMail account which also is giving peopel a hard time.

May or may not be  helpful...but I had the same problem on my Z10.  Make sure on the second account the 'SMPT Username' and 'Update SMTP Password' fields are blank. 
When setting  up my second account these fields were auto-populated and I had to wipe them out in order for it to work.

  • How do I add a second email account in ICloud mail

    How do I add a second email account to my iCloud mail, like a POP account?

    I talked with Apple and they have taken away the ability to check other email addresses on iCloud like you could in MobileMe via POP or whatever.
    Not sure why I would use iCloud if I can't check all of my email there, and I'm certainly not going to configure four POP accounts on my phone, my laptop, ipad, and work computer...
    Bummer...I'm going back to Gmail.

  • I can't add a second email account. I get a message next to the password field 'Username or password invalid'. I can login to gmail web ok, imap is enabled.

    I have setup TB using a gmail account and is working fine. When I try to add another gmail account I get an error 'Username or password invalid'. I can login to this second gmail account through the web at gmail and the account has imap enabled.
    ps - i've been using these accounts for years through the web
    Thanks

    I also tried deleting TB altogether and reinstalled trying the problem gmail account and it still didn't work.
    While checking on the 2-factor authentication, which I don't use, i noticed something. The working gmail account allowed 'access for less secure apps' and my problem account didn't. I enabled that and was able to add it to TB. All works now!
    Not sure if the less secure apps is a good thing, but its working.
    Thanks Christ1

  • HT1277 How can I add a second email account to my "Mail" tab on iMac?

    All I have managed to do is add a Smartmail box, but that just specifies folders in my yahoo. I want to check my google email using the same icon. Setting both up on my iPhone was super simple, but for the life of me I can't figure it out on my mac.

    Hello,
    On the Mac, in Mail's menu>Preferences>Accounts tab, click the tiny  plus icon & add your account.

  • How do I add a second email account to my Mac?

    I have tried looking at videos and posts about how to do it, and followed all the directions that require me to click file, add account and so on.  I have added the account I need, but it will not connect to the internet and I'm not sure why.  It is my school account, and we are required to change the password every 90 days, I dont know if that has anything to do with the activation, but it shouldn't because my friends receive their emails from the same account on their iphones.  If you can help I'd greatly appreciate it!

  • Trouble adding a second email account to my iPhone 4

    I am trying to add a second email account to my iPhone 4.  I have gone into settings, mail/contacts/calendars, add account, etc.  I have chosen "other" and then chosen "add mail account".  I have entered my name, the second email address and a password.  Is this password a new pass word for my new email account or is it the password needed to access the email server?  Then I choose the POP over the the IMAP, because this new email is a POP account, I think.  Now, am I required to add information for both the incoming mail server and the outgoing mail server?  This is where I am lost. 
    I am trying to set this up with out going into the Apple store.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks.  I have not gone to his web site.  But, I do have the information the provided.  He provided a POP Server address and a SMTP Server address.  He also provided the public email address, username and password.
    I think my issue is me not understanding IMAP vs POP and where to use the POP server vs the SMTP server information.  Looks like I need to plan a trip to the Apple store.

  • Second email account, but not in Inbox?

    I'd like to add a second email account to Mail (an IMAP Exchange account) but I don't want the second accounts Inbox to be part of my regular Inbox. i.e. I don't want to the Mail icon in the dock to show the combined number of new emails from both accounts - just one.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks!

    How do you do that? Short of disabling the account in Mail Prefs | Accounts | Advanced ????

  • Can't seem to add artwork to pdf files

    In the "Books" tab, I can add artwork to epub books, but I can't seem to add artwork to pdf files. Is this a normal thing? Or is there something I'm doing wrong?
    Also, do you know what I should be setting my page widths to if I want the pdf files I create to display nicely in Portrait mode on an iPhone? The ones I made seem to only look nice in Landscape mode.

    Devin,  If they end in .ogg, they are OGG Vorbis files.  This is a well-known open-source music format, but iTunes is unable to play it.
    Also, as you have just learned, when iTunes encounters a file that is not copmatible, it "errors silently," i.e. gives no indication of what they problem is.
    To resolve it, use a 3rd party conversion program such as Switch to convert the OGG files into MP3, and then they will add to iTunes.

  • I can't seem to set up a second email account with Mail. Help...and thanks!

    I'm having an impossible time setting up a second email account on Mail. Seemed as though it would be simple but after I've done all the basics, it sets up the account on MobileMe instead of iCloud and there it stops. Can't send or receive messages. I'm lost!  Advice?

    I do have an iCloud account and have since October. I am trying to set up a second email address. Perhaps I'm asking Mail to do more than it's equipped to do.
    I have set up an alias with the new email address through my existing iCloud account. However, when I test sending and receiving, the emails to and from the new address are in the same list as my regular Mail. Not sure this helps with my desire to separate the two! Perhaps I'm still doing something wrong.
    I do appreciate your help.

  • My sons have shared an iPad but had just one iTunes account. How can we add a second iTunes account?

    My sons have shared an iPad but had just one iTunes account. How can we add a second iTunes account?

    There is no reason to add a second iTunes account to the iPad unless your sons want to use their own credit cards for purchases and somehow I don't think is the case here.
    Anyway.... Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap that ID and sign out. Then tap sign in and tap Create new Apple ID.
    If your sons sync with one iTunes library on a computer, it can get a little confusing with two IDs. If either of them has their own iPod and they have been sharing purchased content with the one Apple ID, it gets a little more complicated as well with two IDs.
