Why can't I get my Mail program set up on new itouch 4?

I've been using Mail on my Mac for e-mail for years. Just got an ipod touch 4 and am trying to set up it up to read my mail on it. No luck. Ideas?

What happens when you try?
In the Info pane for the iPod in iTunes do yo have the box checked to sync the mail accounts? That should automatically add the accounts checked to the iPod.
You can also add them manually by going to Settings>Mail>add account.
You can Google for:
setup XX mail on iPhone
for the settings to use with xx being your mail provider.

  • Why can't I get my mail, I get a message "connection to server failed" but I can get on all other web sites.  It worked fine until about a month ago.

    WHY CAN'T I GET MY MAIL, I GET A MESSAGE 'CONNECTION TO SERVER FAILED" BUT I CAN GET ON ALL OTHER WEB SITES.  IT WORKED FINE UNTIL ABOUT A MONTH AGO.  I CANCELLED MY ACCOUNT, PUT MY INFO IN AGAIN AND STILL GET THE MESSAGE "CONNECTION TO SERVER FAILED"  HELP PLEASE!

    have you tried removing and readding the e-mail account? sometimes settings get corrupted or changed on the server end...something computers can sometimes handle better than the mail interface.

  • Why can't I get secure mailing lists to work in IMS 5.1

    I am having problems getting secure mailing lists to work at all. I
    have been battling with iPlanet support and have gotten no where. Evan
    though a local user or a remote email user is listed as allowed senders
    in the IDA, it still will not let either send a message to the list. I
    checked to make sure that the allowed senders showed up in the LDAP
    entry as mgrpallowedbroadcasters and they are. I evan set up a test
    server from scratch and ran into the same issue. Each time an allowed
    user tries to send they get the following error:
    SMTP Error: 5.7.1 you are not allowed to use this list:
    [email protected]
    Anyone else seeing these issues?? Does anyone what could be going
    wrong??

    I'm not sure what is happening, but here are some tips to help debug the problem.
    Put MM_DEBUG=5 in your option.dat file and recompile/restart dispatcher. Put master_debug slave_debug in the defaults section or only appropiate channels and then recompile/restart dispatcher.
    The resulting logs should give you information about just why it is failing.

  • Why can I not get my mail from iCloud when I could yesterday?

    My iCloud cannot connect and get my mail from mobile me. I have already reset my password but still it can't connect. What is the problem. It was fine yesterday. What's up?

    Same here. Some of iCloud is down.
    Check http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

  • Why can't I quit my mail program?

    I'm trying to turn on firevault, which needs a restart. The Mac won't shut down while mail is running. When I hit "quit mail" it doesn't quit. Should I just reboot?

    Force quit Mail.
    Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time.
    Wait.
    When Force Quit window appears, select Mail if not already.
    Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window.
    Wait.

  • Why can't I get MobileMe mail to show on iPad mail app, google mail only?

    Within mail app on my ipad only google mail will show as an active account, no in box etc for my MobileMe mail? I've set the account for MobileMe up the same on my iPhone and both google & MobileMe mail accounts sit happily next to each other on that device. Any ideas, clever people. Incidentally all other aspects of MobileMe work great on iPad.

    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Select your MobileMe account.
    Is Mail turned on in addition to Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, etc.?

  • Why can't I get my icloud account to register my new email on my iPad. I have managed to change it with iTunes and Apple.

    I bought an iPad and opened up an iCloud account now iCloud won't register my new email address on my iPad! Why?

    Okay, got it working!
    My process was pretty straightforward (of course, everything is, in hindsight):
    (1) Go to my user library folder
    (2) Do a spotlight search for the word "mail"
    (3) Delete something that looks like it might be related to/possibly interfering with Mail's operation
    (4) Try Mail
    I repeated the above process a couple of times and poof, Mail started to add my accounts!  First, my Gmail account, and then, after disabling and re-enabling my iCloud account inside System Preferences > iCloud, my iCloud account too!
    The file I believe was the lynchpin was located here:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Mail
    Give that a shot if you can't get your iCloud/Gmail email to show up in Apple Mail 7.1 (1827) under OS X 10.9.1, despite the accounts seemingly adding succesfully in System Preferences.
    IMPORTANT NOTE: This may delete mail you have stored locally, so please do not attempt if you store your email locally (i.e. POP email setups).  I think for IMAP setups (e.g. iCloud & Gmail) this is just deleting the cached versions of the emails, so they'll just get rebuilt once the email is downloaded from the server again.

  • Why can't I get my paid online version on my new computer?

    I had to get a new computer but I can't access what I use to like I could on my old computer. I paid somewhere around 23.00 dollars for just a simple verison of Adobe reader so I can edit PDFs with Word. What do I need to do?

    Why did you pay $23.00 for the FREE Reader? Someone ripped you off. Reader has nothing to do with editing PDFs, but is simply a Reader (or in MS terms a Viewer). If you have OFFICE 2013, you can open PDFs in WORD, but I don't know how well it works (everytime I have seen MS implement some such conversion, they screw it up).

  • Why can't I get my contacts to move to my new iphone

    I am having trouble with moving all of my contacts to my new iPhone. I am hardwiring the IP5 to my MBA using iTunes and checked the correct box. I moved all of my checked music and bookmarks but no contacts. Is there something I'm overlooking?

    The answer to the iCloud question is no. I do not sync to iCloud because I use my phone for business and my iPad for pleasure. I only sync my phone through my MBA so I can control my sync'd files so that I don't have a lot of personal junk on my phone. My music transfered and my essential bookmarks but nothing else.
    The second question is that I do not use Exchange.

    This article is vague and unhelpful. My iTunes needs help from a pro.
    I have over 120,000 songs -- NO movies, TV, radio, or books...
    I have other programs which efficiently run things which are not audio-based.
    So why can I not get iTunes working well?? It now takes at least 10 secs for any operation to be completed!
    That is just plain evil. But I am sure I could do something to help.
    All the music is on an 2T external drive.

    TS1717 as noted in the thread title...
    Brigancook, is the library database on the external or just the media? iTunes reevaluates smart playlists and rewrites its database after every action on the library. I've found this can make a library half that size, with a lot of smart playlists, quite sluggish. That said I'm aware part of my problem is aging hardware. Having the database on the internal drive may improve performance if it is currently on the external.
    I'd expect to see an exponential relationship between size and response time which may explain what you see. Cutting down on the number of smart playlists might help. If we're really lucky the long awaited iTunes 11 might have streamlined some of the background processes as well as cleaning up the front end.

  • Why can't we get Adobe Photoshop help on the weekends. If I buy it I should be able to use it.

    Why can't we get Adobe Photoshop help on the weekends. If I buy it I should be able to use it.

    To all frustrated Photoshop users:
    As has been pointed out, the Adobe Photoshop Forum is NOT staffed by Adobe employees (though a few engineers DO stop by, when they have the time), and we are but users, such as yourself. The difference is that many users here have decades of experience with Ps, and can often solve all sorts of issues, of a technical nature.
    Ranting, and listing bad experiences with Adobe Technical Support (or Customer Support), will NOT reach Adobe - just other users, who might have also had negative experiences with Adobe T/S, but who are powerless to change anything, at a corporate level - also noted by others in this thread.
    We, as users, have no access to any communications that you might have had with T/S - no phone logs, no case numbers, nothing. All that we have is what YOU provide us, regarding YOUR problem. In that vein, if you read this FAQ Entry, plus the one linked in Station_Two's Reply above, and clearly state YOUR problem with the program, someone will attempt to help you with it: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4587299#4587299
    Please be patient, as we are all volunteers (even the Adobe engineers come here on their own time - it's most likely not part of their job descriptions), and drop by the forum, when we have a moment. Many users DO have "day jobs," and face client deadlines. They might not get by that often, and then with breaks in timing, that can extend for days. This is not a "live chat room," where "operators are standing by." However, with the number of contributing users here, it should not take too long, before someone DOES reply to your post. If they have questions, please answer them, to the best of your abilities, and do not hesitate to ask for clarifications, if you are not sure what they are asking, or where to obtain that information. Also, please be courteous, when replying to the users, who are donating their time - they get zero, beyond the satisfaction of helping other users get answers and solutions. If they DO help, which is likely, a simple "thank you," is the best that they can receive. If they DO help, please take a moment to let them know, and also use the "Correct," and "Helpful" buttons in the forum, to let Adobe Corporate know that you got help in the Adobe Forums - they DO count those numbers, though they do not monitor these forums.
    Good luck, and many feel that the help FROM the Adobe products forums, is much better, than from Adobe Technical Support.
