How to sync mail accounts between ios7 and Mavericks?

Dear All,


I set up a few mail accounts on my Mavericks, but do not want to do the same process again on my iPhone5.

Is there any solution to make the iphone to pick up the mail accounts defined on Mavericks? The "accounts" list in system settings should be put in sync only...


Thanks in advance!

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Obviously you can't comprehend this, so I will spell it out for you...


There are other people in this thread with the same issue, who also deserve to have their desire to find a resolution respected. There input into the discussion is also valid.


Now kindly grow up and stop spamming this thread. Your incompetence is wasting all of our time. It isn't our problem that you are socially inept and don't know how to take part in a mutual conversation.


--- EDIT ---


To help you understand what is happening in this conversation, I have added the relevant part of the original poster's question. It should help you to understand why people in the conversation are still hoping to find an actual solution.


"I set up a few mail accounts on my Mavericks, but do not want to do the same process again on my iPhone5"


Now, if you read that carefully you will see that the OP doesn't want to manually set up the accounts on their iPhone (previously this was done automatically).


Now read the post marked as the answer, and hopefully you will comprehend what is happeing here.

Do you not know what the word Synch means, in terms of synching an account on your computer with your device?

It does not man manually entering it into both............

At the very least, just admit you have nothing useful to add and no solution, and butt out then.

Shouting over everyone else to pretend something is solved that isn't, is a very strange use of your time, unless you're getting paid to shout over problems and brush them over.

Please quit pretending you are solving anything and let people have a real discussion over a thing that we used, that was recently broken/disabled by apple. Pretending you have a clue what we are talking about or trying to help is not constructive because you shout over people and confuse the problem giving fake solutions that have nothing to do with what we're talking about.

Thank you so much for at least attempting to clarify this issue and have a rational conversation that might lead to people understanding what was broken and an eventual solution, despite Csound1's constant attempts to throw ignorance around and confuse what people are saying, calling it solved just to brush it over.

Yes I do, and it is not available for this task. (Syncing Mail account settings)


Why is that so difficult for you to understand? it is a very simple answer, and it is the correct answer.

May 2, 2014 7:21 AM in response to Csound1

Because

1, you keep calling it "solved" when it is something that worked and was broken in the latest OS.

2, you're terminology is all over confusing the issue on various levels, or you're seriously confused.

I have no idea what the motivation behind doing that is, pretending manually entering your accounts into everything is the same thing as synching accounts. At this point I think you do know better and are just frothing to avoid having a new issue identified in the latest OS, whatever your motivation is.

It's something that's now broken.

Don't call it solved. You're not adding one thing to this but distraction and confusion.

Then why don't you tell us your answer to the question: How to sync mail accounts between ios7 and Mavericks?


Do you understand the question?

May 2, 2014 7:22 AM in response to Csound1

There is no answer yet, because Apple broke it with the latest major OS updates.

Quit calling it solved if you have nothing constructive to add, and it's not actually solved.

If you don't have a problem because you never used a feature maybe you never knew about or understood, please get out of the way of us people who know what we're talking about and have an issue with it being removed.

Rich, you tell everyone else to shut up because of a problem they have that you don't understand, to know what's broken even aparantly, and you don't want to be told anything.

Unlike you, I have better things to do than dance with nonsense. I just hope everyone ignores you if they want to understand the issue and current lack of a solution. Do what you will, by all means.

Cam.Gould - I admire you. I can't believe you put up with this frothing ignorance and managed to clear the confusion Csound1 kept trying to cause, as much as you did.

May 2, 2014 7:47 AM in response to Csound1

You are wrong, but you do have a point. Using the feedback form in addition to discussing things here could help.

People like you make apple worse. If you really don't know what the words "synch accounts with device" or "problem solved" mean, I apologize for getting so upset with your apparant attempt to brush over and confuse an issue with a feature broken in the latest OS updates.
If you're a blind knee-jerk fanboy who just can't stand any criticism of any of apple's decisions, i have no patience or regret asking you but please but out and let people discuss what they want without your deliberate confusion and distraction.

I've personally been contacted by apple about these forums and they do pay attention when enough people mention something. Believe it or not. I don't want to guess or wonder and don't care if you are being ignorant, or just deceitful.
