My company requires periodic password changes. I'm hoping there's a way to change my MS Exchange password in the email app without having to remove and add a new account.
same question...did you find a solution?

My company does this too which is slightly annoying, but only on the day it happens. Our Exchange server resync's fine with re-adding the account and I don't lose anything...
Settings > Accounts and Sync > select your Exchange account under the Manage accounts section > Account settings > Incoming Settings
Yes, that is buried a bit deeply..

is there a way to have multiple email accounts on the tp? i have one of my hotmail accounts logged in. but when i try to go to add a new account for another hotmail account i have i go trhough the process. instead of adding it like my first email it goes online and i cant view pictures and it sucks compared to my original. i have to switch live ids if i wanna setup a different account in order to add gthe other email.
Is there a a program i can dl in order to do this? can i have a gmail account and hotmail account together or are we limited to 1 email that is tied directly to our tp?
Are trying to check your email through the web browser??
You can have as many pop/imap accounts as you want... you need to be using the built in copy of outlook... add each account separately
Makes sure you have pop or imap enabled in gmail or hotmail by checking the settings when you login over the web to each of those respective sites...
(ie: for gmail go to settings -> 'forwarding and pop/imap' -> enable IMAP)
From the Touch Flo 3D email tab tap Menu -> Accounts -> Accounts... -> Setup E-Mail. Add the incoming and outgoing mail server addresses, your username and password for the account, how much email you want to sync and you should be all set
I ran into the same problem. Have not figured it out yet. Evidently the built in email software does not allow two accounts under the same domain name. Ex" george @ verizon.net, and louie at verizon .net.
I have been able to set up multiple accounts, just not multiple accounts under the same domain name.
Is this what you are trying to do?
Yeah, it seems they don't let you have 2 hotmail accounts. But I do have more than one gmail account on there.
Here's one possible work-around:
Log on to your hotmail account on the pc. Then enable sending & receiving emails from other accounts as well. I have added my other hotmail account to it, and now get emails for both.

I have 1 hotmail & 2 gmail accounts, directly accessible and showing up on TF3D.
No problem putting 2 gmail accounts on, just a problem with 2 hotmail accounts, since you have to set those up through Windows Live App.
Has anyone figured out how to have two accounts with the same Domain Name Yet?
I didnt have a problem setting up 3 email accounts from the same domain. It's a personal domain. I unchecked find server settings automatically, set each as internet email, then followed the prompts. No problem with all three.
I can add hotmail but not other microsoft exchange account. is there help on this?
bump. another question. Why can't social hub email display other windows live mail folders except the generic Inbox, Outbox, Sent, Trash. I don't even see junk.
exchange email account
sure, you can add one, I have two setup on my phone. Go into settings/accounts and sync/add account. There you can choose to setup any account you want, just scroll down to more accounts and choose microsoft exchange activesync and set it up. Manual setup works best, as auto detect likely will not find your necessary settings unless you IT guys really wanted to make it easy, (unlikely).
Just follow the onscreen directions and you will have it done in a few minutes.

I really can't. Even though I followed all the instructions written about POP and SMTP address. I suspect it's a port issue.
You shouldn't be asked about POP3 settings with an Exchange ActiveSync account. It sounds like you're doing something wrong.
Add the account by going to Settings > Accounts and sync > Add account (button at bottom of screen) > Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (you'll need to scroll down). You should not be inside Email or Social Hub when you do this. The Settings screen you need to go into is your phone's general settings screen.
On the first screen you'll be asked to enter your email address, password, domain and user name, and the address of your Exchange server. The only thing that's a bit unclear here is that you domain and user name should be in DOMAIN\user.name format.
I'd tell you what should be on later screens, but I only have 1 Exchange server to test against, and I'm not going to remove that account. Hopefully you'll be able to work things out from here.
POP3 != Exchange
Exchange Active Sync will be something like your work email if configured properly and given the appropriate permissions
POP3 is Hotmail and other random email hosting, you will most likely only need POP3
I have trouble getting new contacts that I add to my phone to sync with my Google account. I've lost quite a few new numbers that I've put into my phone, not knowing that it hasn't synced to my Google account, I flash a new ROM and restore contacts from my account only to find out that I'm missing that person's number . I have "Sync Contacts" checked in my Google account settings and I make sure the contact is assigned to a group. Even with a force sync within the contacts app and my google account settings doesn't bring the newly entered contact over. Anybody else experience this or have a work around?

Do you have your phone set to save new contacts to google?
Contacts > Menu > Settings > Save new contacts to
edit:
post above mine is the way to go....
It worked! Thank you so much. Now do you have to do this every single time? Seems counter productive to having auto sync features with your google account if you have to do this every time you add somebody.
edit: settings was set to "Save to phone" Why did I not even think of this! Thanks again
Nope, that is the default setting for all contacts. Set it once and you should be good. However, I would double check it after re-flashing ROMs and such, just in case.
I would set that setting to 'Always ask'. This setting will be applied whenever you add a new contact. The default is 'Phone' which does not sync with Google. If you have Exchange server account, you will see exchange contact as well.
So, each contacts belongs to a specific contact provider: Phone, SIM card, Google, Exchange account or any other account types you installed. Only the contacts that belongs to a that contact provider will be synced with that provider. Phone and SIM card contacts stays on the phone or SIM card, never synced with any cloud services.
Hello,
I ONCE set up the hotmail account in the rezound using the built in mail app and choose hotmail. Needless to say i regret that. Verizonwireless sent me an email telling me that my account was set up successfully... WTF
That email account cannot be deleted without doing a factory reset.
Since i updated my ROM and when I go to set up new email accounts, it still finds this account again WTF
it says:
" we found existing email accounts Restore them by tapping on any account or tap add new "
I have looked high and lo to find out how this account is being memorized, but cannot.
Anyone know hot to delete this from re-appearing
thank you in advance
Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 that is configured with a certain gmail account. I would like to now configure it with a new gmail account. I already removed the existing gmail account from "Settings -> Accounts". But this does not ask me to enter a new gmail account next time I power it on. I would like to use my new gmail account to even configure the device. Is factory reset only option? any other way to do this? Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks !!

What does it say when you go to settings, accounts, "Add account"?

I can add a new account that way. But my question was more about the gmail account that was used to configure Android itself and how to change it.
