Any luck setting up iCloud on Android?

I now have it working on the Samsung Galaxy S2 in the native email app.

I noticed a couple of people have posted about success after changing passwords. A password change has worked for me.

The issue appears to be that the password requirements for Apple IDs have been tightened up since many of us originally set our passwords. They now need to be longer, with a capital letter and a number as well.

Once you have a compliant password you will be able to set up the account. NB I didn't need to use the 'p07-' etc, I just used imap.mail.me.com. SSL and TLS settings as per Peter 1983's email

Try:

• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: example@me.com (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password

The settings below worked for me in a variety of Android devices... Galaxy Tab, Galaxy S, Galaxy Tab, Galaxy S2, HTCs, Motorals, LGs and even on those chepos they sell here in Europe.... in Android 2.x - 3.x and 4.x -

One thing though... the iCloud accounts I created with my Macs took a little longer to verify the SMTP server that the ones I created with my iPhones. But hey it worked... iCloud mail on iPhone works great... messages dont PUSH though so you gotta set it up to pull the mail every 5 minutes or so...

This one worked for me Great!

I'm on the Galaxy Nexus running 4.0.1 and I just can't seem to get iCloud working on this device.

I get the message - "Can't safely connect to server (javax.net.ssl.sslprotocolexception: SSL handshake aborted" and a string of error codes...

Anyone have any ideas?

Hey there I'm the developer of Enhanced Email. Just wanted to say THANKS for being an EE user. I stumbled across this thread while trying to help an Amazon appstore EE user which wrote a review (http://www.amazon.com/review/RWL5BMCP6F8WT/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B0052 TS8OY&nodeID=&tag=&linkCode=) saying EE didn't work with apple iCloud accounts. I directed the user to this thread in hopes Peter1983's solution fixes it for them. While I likely won't see your response (if you give one) since I don't peruse the Apple forums ever I just wanted to drop a quick post saying thanks for using EE 🙂

SUCCESS!!!!!! FINALY ON MY SAMSUNG NOTE AND K-9 EMAIL

PORT 993

OUT GOING

SMTP.MAIL.ME.COM

SECURITY :NONE

PORT 587

TICK REQUIRE SIGN IN .

IT WORKS FOR ME .

Hey Helosk... I have the Nexus as well and the tip from MyMac8MyPC works perfectly.

Cheers.

I have tried all the combinations and tried changing passwords but cannot get to work on Sony Xperia Arc S. Have used K-9 and Maildroid. Any ideas anyone?

Hi ,I finally got it to work i have a SAMGUNG NOTE and i use K9 ,here is what i had to do .

1: go to the Apple system preferences .

2:go to mobile me....and here i ticked the box saying tick to upgrade to icloud...

3:go to mail,contacts&calandars .

4:go to icloud and tick all the boxes u want for icloud .

5: go to your android email app..i tried bothe the stock app and k9

6:username bob@mac.com (eg)

7:your password

8: imcoming server is : imap mail.me.com ssl if available port 993

9:outgoing server smtp.mail.me.com port 587

tick requires sign in and the worked for me ......the mistake i was making was not ticking the old mobile me upgrade tick box ...now it all works but i find the email does not push ..but i have to pull . hope this is a solution for you pls let me know how it goes .

I tried it but still no luck. Running out of ideas now as all my settings seem correct.

Just used this method on my Galaxy Nexus running 4.0.3 in the build in email client. Worked instantly. Thank you very much man.

so it was the mobile me tick boxright??? any way it worked for me .

however i have yet to get it to work like push mail ..which mobile me did ..at the moment i have to pull the mail by polling every 15 min .if you can figure out how to get push icloud mail would be great .

Also, for anyone who still does not have their mail working properly, this seems too simple, but mine was fixed when I updated my phones android software to the latest version. (Just Settings -->About Phone-->Software Update-->Check for Updates)
