# Add account to iPhone/iPad

Set up an account to manage email, contacts, and calendar on an iPhone/iPad.

If you need or want to create an IMAP account, see below.

### Add account

1. Go to *Settings* > *Apps* > *Mail*.
2. Go to *Email Accounts*.
3. Click *Add Account*, enter your email address, and click *Next*.
4. Select *Microsoft Exchange*, *Next*, and *Configure manually*.
5. Enter your password, then click *Next*.
   If you encounter problems with verification, it is probably due to an incorrect password.
6. Select what you want to sync and click *Save*.

Exchange ActiveSync is a technology developed by Microsoft that is used to send information between email clients and your mobile phone.

#### Note

Before adding your account, your old one must be deleted first, see below.
