User's icon in iPad Mail

I got a new iMac and took a horrible picture for my icon. Then got my iPad and it automatically copied this icon over to Mail. Now I've changed my user icon in Mail on the iMac but after re-syncing, the iPad is still showing the old image/icon. Any idea how to change this?

Just figured out that going into Mail on the iPad, selecting my own email address would allow me to open my email profile and choose the icon.

I want to sync my I phone user name (my current e-mail address) with my iPad, PC user name (old e-mail address.) If I delete that current address in the iPhone, won't I also be deleting it in my other devices? They are synced. I don't want to lose it. I just want to get it out of the way on my iphone so it doesn't confuse the transfer of ID names and then I want it back again.. I tried deleting the cloud account, being told the current e-mails would be spared. But all it did was pop up a prompt asking me for the password to my still current email ID. So I assume now that I have to go to mail and get rid of the e-mail account. But I'm scared I'll lose everything in my other devices too.

You can change the email address you use as your apple ID. this doesn't mean you have to delete the old email address as email.
When you delete an email from your device, it is only removed from the device, it does not delete your emails or the email account.

When I hit the e-mail icon on iPad air I always get "cannot connect to server".

However, in a couple of seconds the e-mails load up just fine. It seems as though the iPad is not waiting long enough for the server before giving the "cannot connect" message. Is there a fix for this?

The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Creating file folders in iPad mail

Is it possible to create mail folders in iPad mail, or is there an app that let's you organize mail into folders

It depends on what email provider your using to make a new folder. For example I use gmail and coustum folders in gmail are called labels. Don't ask me why they are called labels... You can add a folder from the iPad and here is how to do it with gmail.
Open a new browser window in Safari...
Type in google.com in the URL address bar...
Click on Gmail in the menu...
Type in your user name and password...
When Gmail loads, look at the bottom of the page and click on basic HTML...
You can add folder (labels) in two places. From the settings (top right), label tab. Or from the left hand column, labels, edit labels...
Add the a new label with a name...
You can add as many folders (labels) to you liking.
Click on the email icon app. If the new folder doesn't show up hit the home button and click on the email app again, the new folder should show up.
Once you have done this a few times you'll get a good workflow.
I'm sure you can do this with other email providers that let's you access your email by way of a bowser page.

Annotated PDF from Preview will not display annotations in iPad mail

I have an Annotated PDF from Preview will not display annotations in iPad mail, yet, it will display them on my Macbook Air. I confirmed this with another iPad user. Same results. Any ideas.

I had the same issue. iAnnotate PDF will display your annotations made in preview and allow you to annotate on the iPad. It is a great app, I and quite happy with it.

How to Retrieve YouTube default icon from iPad?

Hello iPad users.. would you like to lend some help on how you can retrieve the YouTube default icon from iPad? I no longer see it in my homescreen which I was wondering why... I would like to retrieve it. I did go to the App store to find it but the YouTube app from Google is very small and when you push 2x its pixelated.
The YouTube app coming from iPad which was installed right before you buy it was the one I am looking for and I can't seem to find it.. Please I need your help and thanks so much for any assistance you can give..
Blessings..
PS I have the iPad 3 version

iOS 6 no longer has the native YouTube app. All there is (for now) is the iPhone version that you found. Supposedly Google is working on an iPad version of this app.

Yahoo! email does not load through ipad Mail app.

I'm using an iPad mini and for about 1 week now the built-in Mail app does not retrieve my Yahoo! email. When I click on the Mail icon a blank screen comes up -- no error message, no nothing, just a blank screen. I have to use the browser to access my Yahoo! email. I have tried deleting and re-establishing my Yahoo! email account. I have tried re-establishing my network connection. I have tried restoring my iPad to factory settings. I have switched my default email account to G-mail and I receive my email just fine through the built-in app. But Yahoo! is my primary account and I cannot get my email. This just started in the last week. Prior to this I have been receiving Yahoo! email just fine through the built-in app for 3 years. But now nothing. Also, the mail app recognizes I have new mail because the little red number pops up when new mail arrives. But in order to retrieve the mail I have to go to the browser, and once the mail is read, the little red number disappears.
I contacted Yahoo! support and they suggested I set up an app password if I use two-step verification. But I don't use two-step verification. Then they suggested checking my IMAP settings, but IMAP settings aren't accessible (that I know of) through the iPad mini settings. So I just re-established the network settings to no avail.
I can't help but think this is a Yahoo! email server issue, but Yahoo! doesn't mention that.
Someone please help!

Yahoo mail works on my Mac desktop & laptop, plus my iPad 2.

Problem with iPad mail past messages

Since I upgraded to ios 5, my iPad mail refuses to download my 50 past messages. I receive new mail no problem. Any thoughts?

Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

You cannot set up more than one user account on the iPad if that is what you mean.
Obviously families will share an iPad, but they are really meant to be single user devices with one Apple ID only on the iPad. Multiple ID's on one iPad can become a bit of a hassle to deal with.
There is no way to lock apps or email accounts so that can become an issue as well. If you use the built in mail app for email, whoever is using the iPad can read your email.

Can you have more than one user account on an Ipad

can you have more than one account on the ipad.

But...
You CAN connect an iPad to multiple Apple ID's, one-at-a-time, if you're willing to share a combined pool of apps, music, movies, photos, podcasts, and perhaps, email accounts, and sync things manually.
First, uncheck the option to 'automatically sync' mobile devices in the preferences for each iTunes account, so that you're not accidentally installing or removing content when you connect the iPad to a computer.
Here's how we do it:
I have a MacBook with two user accounts and two Apple ID's: "Hers"-used only for iTunes/iPad manual sync-ing and backup; and "Mine", used for all my Mac programs, plus iPad Apps that I'm interested in.
The iPad2 is her only computing device, used primarily for email and web-browsing.
On her iPad2, we have a combined 'pool' of apps, photos, and music.
We use her Apple ID for her email, and to sync and back up.
I use my Apple ID to download a lot of free apps to my MacBook.
In the App Store, I sign out of her Apple ID and use my Apple ID to transfer and update the apps I want to try out. Then I can delete them from her iPad when I'm done 'playing', yet leave them on my MacBook for future re-installation, if desired.
To simplify email privacy, we've configured the iPad Mail app exclusively for her MobileMe and Hotmail accounts. I connect to my email accounts with the Safari browser, or from my MacBook.
Hope that helps!
I'm not certain how iOS 5 and iCloud might enhance or restrict my ability to manage this in the future.

I couldn't send any email from iPad mail !!!!!

Problem with iPad Mail Client

Most people have a normal mail server, meaning that when you login with your mail client, it starts up IMAP processes on your mail server to give you the email.
So ... I use my desktop, to login to read mail mostly. I use Thunderbird because it lets you control somethings that the Mail app on the Mac does not ... like the number of cached connections. In an enterprise context, both Apple's and Microsoft's mail clients are total pigs. They start up these IMAP connections and they never drop them, putting a huge load and creating tons of connections so that email users can check their email ever few minutes. This is a very poor design.
Thunderbird allows you to take the client offline so that those connections are cleared and the resources on the server are not monopolized, but Outlook Express and Mail do not ... at least as far as I can tell.
So ... when you check your mail you create these connections, and then when you check your mail from the your iPad, your double what you just probably have running from your desktop, or laptop, or whatever computer you normally use and are not at because you are using your iPad.
When you switch from the iPad Mail app to another app, it does not clear those connections, and it maintains the connection even if you are not using it.
Is there some way to configure this OFF, so that your mail is not maintaining these connections?
And ... don't tell me to go into
Settings
-> Mail/Contacts/Calendars
-> Fetch New Data (turn push off) (switch schedule to manual)
-> Advanced
-> <individual account>
->(switch to manual)
Which is by the way a very complex thing to do, remember, and configure ... but it does not work as far as I can tell.
Companies, at least many of them in an enterprise context need these things to not waste cycles and resources on their servers ... not to mention ISP's and websites don't like it either.
Why is it that a free mail client like Thunderbird can do better than both Apple and Microsoft at solving this problem ... though it is not completely solved by either?
