Using .Mac with iphone

I did search but i could not find the answer. I am currently using the .mac email trial to see if it is somethig i might be interested in buying. I noticed none of my emails have been pushed to my iphone. Is this because i am using the trial and not all features are available? Or is it because .mac does not support push mail? Thanks

Apple does not provide/support the Push-IMAP protocol - at the present time anyway but a .Mac account provides the flexibility to access the account as IMAP or POP depending on preferences.
I access my .Mac account on my iPhone (as an IMAP account along accessing the account as an IMAP account with the Mail.app on my Mac) which is my primary account and although Push is not supported with the iPhone, all you need to do is select the account's Inbox mailbox in between automatic checks.
The free Yahoo Push-IMAP account for iPhone customers cannot be accessed with an email client on another computer or device.

  • Using wifi with iphone 4

    When using wifi with iphone 4 does it use up your data allowance? Also when using wifi with iphone 4 does your phone automatically detect the wifi present and uses the wifi or o you have to physically turn on the wifi inorder not to use up data allowance?

    Wifi does NOT use plan minutes or amounts - it is wholly independent of your data plan.
    Wifi cannot connect if turned off, so yes, it must be on to connect. And, you may have to log on to a network if you have never done so before (it can remember networks once connected the first time, and then will automatically reconnect when next in range).

  • How to use icloud with iphone

    I am very confused on how to sync or use my cloud on my Mac with my new IPhone 5S.  I have all the settings on the phone correct.  On the Mac, under Preferences, there is no "cloud" item for me to choose to set up, only mobile me and I get error if clicking it.  I do have a cloud "folder" listed on the sidebar menu under Finder along with Desktop, Our Name, Applications, Cloud Drive, Documents.  However, there is nothing in the cloud and I have my phone set to upload everything.
    I've even looked in IPhoto and there is only a mobile me icon, which does nothing if I click it.  I don't see a way to upload pictures.
    I also have a symbol that looks like a cloud across the top menu where the volume button is, but it doesn't do anything if you try to click it.
    I just purchased my IPhone and would like to share my pictures on my Mac.  How can I do this?  Thank you so much for any help you can share.
    I also believe it is the same Apple ID account for both.  I input the information in my phone to set it up.

    Here lies your issue... OS X 10.6.8 = Snow leopard is too Old for iCloud.
    However... you can access iCloud.com using Safari in Snow Leopard.

  • Unable to Sync Outlook Contacts of Office 2011 for Mac with iPhone 5

    I have been struggling to sync my Outlook 2011 for Mac with my iPhone 5 via iTunes. Apple support says it is not possible. All thier stores say you can use Office on Mac Machines but no one says that you cannot sync contacts with iPhone. Why in the world Apple does not allow to sync contact from Outlook to iPhone? The apple support say that in the earlier version of iTune it was possible but in the current version it is not possible. Has some genius found a way to sync the Outlook 2011 contacts with iPhone using iTune or any other external software? I will be grateful for any help in the matter.

    The comment from Apple support was partially true.  If you search the web you will find that Office 2011 (latest Mac version of Office) has never been able to sync with an iPhone.  Older versions (maybe), and Windows versions possibly, but not the latest Mac version.  MS changed the format of just about everything in Outlook 2011.  It was MS that broke the iTunes ability to sync, not Apple.
    So, even though Office 2011 works just fine on a Mac, you loose the ability to sync with your iPhone.  Thank the folks in Redmond for this.

  • Can you use Appletv with iPhone only?

    A friend has an iPhone, no Mac, still running a pc. Wants to get an ATV2. Can she use it with just an iPhone?

    She can use it with iTunes on the PC.
    Renting movies/internet based functions do not require a computer at all.
    An iPhone 4 (and 3GS I think) can send compatible media to AppleTV2 via the Airplay function - computer not essential for this.

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • Sync Contacts in Mac with iPhone

    I've erased some contacts on my Mac, but when syncing with iPhone, those contacts appear on iPhone. How can I sync only the contacts I really have on my Mac?

    Did you check to sync your contacts with Address Book on the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings?  Also, make sure you meet the minimum system requirements for syncing your 4S, which include:
    Mac: OS X v10.5.8 or later
    iTunes 10.5 or later

  • If I buy a used Mac with Final Cut Pro and other software pre-installed, will they be updateable?

    I want to buy a used Mac for video editing and there are alot of them with FCPX and other software already installed. If I buy one of these will I be able to do future updates to the software?

    If they were downloaded from the Mac App store, no. In fact, the licenses are not transferable. Technically, it's not legal to sell you the machine with apps from the Mac App store still installed.

  • PC at Work - Mac at Home - use both with iPhone?

    I have a PC at work and a couple of Macs at home. I plan on using my iPhone for both personal and work use. From a work perspective, I would like to get to email, contacts, calendar etc (they are all on outlook.
    From a personal perspective, I am interested in bringing in my photos, music etc. from my mac. I guess it would be nice to pull ical and pers mail as well. I think that Mobile me is the solution. However, I wanted to get thoughts from other people.
    Thanks.

    Hey CoffeyL,
    The iPhone can sync from multiple computers.
    This article goes over syncing in detail.

  • Using .mac with mail.app and iphone...problems with mailbox folders i think

    Is it normal in mail.app for my folders to be as follows: Under the heading Mailboxes, I have Inbox folder and Sent folder and trash folder. Then, instead of a junk folder under that, it is below all of that under the heading Chris's Email (obviously my account). Why is this?

    Who is your ISP used for connecting to the internet?
    Are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server that is provided by your ISP with the Mail.app and if so, are you able to send messages with your ISP's email account?
    Most if not all ISPs used for connecting to the internet now block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network (or not provided by the ISP) on Port 25 which is the default port for SMTP servers.
    Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only (such as the .Mac SMTP server) on Port 25 but some block its use regardless.
    These restructions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
    First thing to try.
    Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below the the .Mac SMTP server.
    Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
    If this doesn't work, you need to contact your ISP. If you are accessing an email account and SMTP server that is provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet with the Mail.app, in the interim select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send messages with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.
