Cannot receive or access iCloud Mail

Ever since getting all the newest iOS and iOS 6 software, not to mention all need devices, I have not been able to utilize my Apple ID that links all of them together through iCloud+ so when I put it in my Apple ID somewhere it has it saved I’m unable to get the emails.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

G'day APulverizer,


Hi there. If we understand correctly, you're having some issues using iCloud Mail. While we're not clear on all of the details, we'd like to help by sharing this resource. This covers some great steps that you can try If iCloud Mail isn't working


To start, make sure you've reviewed and tried these steps:


"If you need help sending or receiving mail on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

1) Check your Internet connection. Open apple.com in Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

2) To see if you can receive mail for your iCloud email on another device, go to iCloud.com on a Mac or PC. 

3) Make sure that you turned on Mail in Settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud and turn on Mail.

4) Make sure that new data is pushed to your device automatically. In iOS 14 or later, tap Settings > Mail > Accounts > Fetch New Data, then turn on Push. In iOS 13 or earlier, tap Settings > Passwords & Accounts > Fetch New Data, then turn on Push. 

    • Send an email to your account to see if Push is working.
    • In Fetch New Data, tap your iCloud account and turn on Push. You can only use Push with one account at a time. 

5) Turn your device off and back on. 

6) 'If you still can't send or receive mail, turn off the settings in steps 3 and 4, restart your device, then turn them back on."


If the issue persists, please reply back here with more specifics on what's happening.


Take care.
