    Why are my emails not deleting from all devices when deleted from one?  I have iCloud mail set up and turned on. I have ipad2, iPhone 5 and a Mac desktop. What am I doing wrong?  Thank you.

    It depends on the type of email account you are using, not on iCloud.  If you are using an IMAP or exchange account, when you delete from one device, it is deleted from all devices.  If you are using a POP (POP3) account, it won't.  (iCloud email, Gmail and Yahoo are all IMAP accounts.)

    Have you tried updating via iTunes? I find that way's more reliable - I've never had any problems with updating that way.

  • Why does my iPhone say can not sign in when trying to download an app

    Why does my iPhone 4 say can not sign in when trying to download an app

    Perhaps the account information is incorrect. Make sure that you are using the proper App store credentials.
    If you forgot your password, you can easily recover or reset it using iForgot. For security reasons, Apple cannot reset your password for you. To protect yourself against unauthorized purchases to your credit card, do not give out your password to anyone.
    NOTE: If you attempt to sign in to the Apple Online Store numerous times with the wrong password, you will see the following error message: “This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons." To reset your account, use iForgot. 

  • TS3274 Why does my Email say it cannot send an email ? Then is does not send it.

    my email just started saying that it cannot send my email. It doesn't do it all the time but when it does say that it does not send my email . what can I do to stop my IPad from doing that?

    Probably based on the limited information you've given - issue with your wifi or cellular data connection.
    Or with your email provider servers.

  • Why does my email say cannot get mail the connection to the server failed

    Unable to use email from my phone

    What did your email provider say when you contacted them about their server issue?

  • Why does my email say I'm offline?

    I had a reinstall and used the same settings but can't send or receive mail. Please Obi 1 help me.

    Why did you need to reinstall, and what specific version of 10.5 are you using? What sort of email account is this, POP or IMAP; who is your email provider; what are the specific settings for your Incoming and Outgoing mail servers (server names, port numbers for each, authentication method, SSL status)? If you're getting an error message, we need the exact text of it.

  • HT202157 Why does Apple TV say Netflix is not available when I can watch it on my computer?

    I have reset my Apple tv to factory defaults, but it did not ask me to activate it again.
    For the last two days everytime i try watch a Netflix movie is says Netflix is not availble please try again latter.
    I have also power cycled my apple tiv by leaving it unplugged five minutes and upgraded the software.
    I was using it with no problem and am not aware of anything I did to hurt the configuraton.
    Again I have reset and restarted and power cycled several times.
    Not sure why it did not ask me to activate it again.
    I can also watch trailers and get to the sign in page on other channels.
    This is the first Apple product I have ever bought because I don't like the fact everything they have is propriatary.
    I work in IT and there is a good reason why you don't see Apple servers in datacenters.
    Maybe at an art department in a marketing company at the most.

    I understand that point. They are mostly bought from iTunes. But, I can watch on my laptop, iPad, iPhone on an airplane or wherever without an Internet connection. So why the hang up on my apple tv, should it not just be an extension of my laptop?

  • Why does my ipad say I have no photos when itunes says I have 2200 photos on my ipad?

    When I sync my iPad2 with iTunes, iTunes shows that I have 2000+ photos synced to my iPad, but when I go to look at photos on my iPad, it says that there are no photos.  Anyone know how I can find the photos on my iPad?

    I had this problem, too. It was on my phone, though, but it seems to be a problem that many people have.
    I have fixed it. It cost me 99 cents.
    My phone said I had 247 photos/videos. Itunes said I had 1700+. Both said that Photos & Video were taking up 10.8 GB of storage.
    On my phone, I went to Settings --> iCloud --> Storage --> Change Storage Plan
    I selected the 20GB plan for $0.99 a month
    Then, I went to Settings --> iCloud --> Photos
    I enabled My Photo Stream (slider to the right/green)
    Then, I got on WiFi. I don't know how long it took, certainly not long enough to upload gigabytes of data, but I saw that my Photos & Camera app was using a far more reasonable amount of storage (1.3 GB, rather than 10.8 GB). I checked this by going to
    Settings --> General --> Usage --> Manage Storage
    Because I don't want the 20GB iCloud plan, I went back to
    Settings --> iCloud --> Storage --> Change Storage Plan --> Downgrade Options (at the bottom)
    ... and I selected the 5 GB Free plan again.
    Now for a little rant.
    I am very unhappy that I had to give Apple one thin dime to have this fixed. After spending a couple of hours trying to figure out why I can barely use any storage on my phone, I had to pay to fix it. Ridiculous.
    I still enjoy using Apple products, but I enjoy using them less and less over time. Not only is every release of iTunes less usable than the previous one, the last one wouldn't even install on my machine. That was about another six hours lost trying to figure out the problem.

  • Why does my account say I only have $5 when I should have approx. $86?

    I recently bought a Mac for college and I was given the $100 iTunes/App Store gift card.  I've only used it for two small purchases, after which I should have approximately $86 remaining; yet, when I view my account, it says I only have $5 and if I try to make a purchase of more than that, I'm told that I don't have sufficient funds.  Is there any way I can correct this?

    That would be an issue that you need to discuss with the iTunes/MAS support folks. When you sign into your account on the iTunes app on your computer check your purchase history. There is an invoice there for verything that you have purchased. If there is a question about a purchase listed, there is a link to iTunes Support from the invoice.

  • Why does my email adress to change my security questions is not one of my valid email adresses ?

    I Want to receive a mail in order to change my answers to my security questions but the adress the system writes in the link is not my ID Apple/email adress or my secondary adress either.
    I don't understand and I have to do it to buy an abonnement for an apps.
    Thanks a lot

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • Why does my email auto pull-down list keep fading out after one second (I can put my mouse on it and it comes back, so it is there, just again fades away after 1 second)?

    When I go to send an email, many of may emails are saved so when I type in the first letter, a list appears in the auto pull down. However, when I go to click on the address I want, it immediately fades out. I will put my cursor on it and I will see the list again, but only for one second, then it fades away again.
    So I have to guess which order they are in and click and hope it's the right one, ha!
    I like the option, it just isn't working right for some reason.

    That would indicate an issue with the local network, not internet. This can impact devices differently and will likely be more obvious on a streaming only device.
    If you are on wifi try ethernet
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
    Go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.
