You have all the details for your smtp settings under the email tab - so you should be able to import the account.

I have updated training here that works with Windows 10 and Outlook 2016/365 How To Add WA Email Account To Microsoft Outlook You need to ensure that you split the incoming and outgoing credentials, along with specifying the Inbox Folder, for it to run smoothly. As well as configuring Outlook “before” you open Outlook.

This has nothing to do with WA other than it disrupts my productivity. I have tried the Apple Community and searched the world over, and nothing seems to work. With so many won
Finally resolved. After about 4 hours and three Apple trouble tickets, the issue is finally resolved. Because I no longer own any of the devices trying to connect to my iCloud, I was able to use the "Find My" app on my Mac to erase and remove the three devices. The last person to assist me, Heather, even remarked that I was the best customer she had all day. Lol
Lol. I am stuck with this issue, it appears. Nothing from the apple Community and nothing from any forum where I have posed the question. How can I be the only person in the world with this issue? Lol
That's totally up to you what to approve or not. And what notifications I want to see in my Mac. I'd say it is more like settings within. However can't work exactly where. May be I need more info. You may look at settings from within the notifications bar.
Right. If I approve the devices, the message still appears minutes later. The same happens if I disapprove the devices. I don't even have these devices, so I'm not sure why they're popping up like this. It's annoying as the notifications fill the right side of the screen.
I checked my notifications and did not see anything related to iCloud in there.

This device wants to use your icloud account?

Has anyone used LBF to migrate your WordPress site? If so, maybe you can help me with this issue. I completed the migration; however, every time it is completed, I am asked to
Yeah, I think that I may be getting close to a solution. However, I have to wait to get home before I know for sure if @MarionBlack has helped solve this mystery 🤓.
I've had All in one Word Press Migration recommended to me.
Barry. I've not heard of LBF. Hope that helps.

I used the plugin, just can't login to WordPress after the migration as it asks me to update my database, then it screws up my admin login.
Hmm! I need to watch for that, not doing mine until next week.
Thanks for advance warning.

Hi, I don't use but I found below links
Docs:
https://getflywheel.com/ ?s=wordpress+migration&id=36104&post_type=help
Support can be contacted here
https://getflywheel.com/wordpress-support/#contactus
By the way, I used that plugin and another one as well. However, the migration part is not the issue. It's what happens after it's migrated. I can see the site and interact with it as a visitor, but I cannot log in to the WordPress application because it doesn't recognize my admin credentials.
I spoke with Flywheel support, and they cannot troubleshoot my issue because I am not a customer under their hosting service. So, I am back at square one...
It looks like you've managed to install Local by Flywheel on your computer. But which method are you using to do the actual migration of your existing website? Try All In One WP Migration.
Yes, I used that plugin and another one as well. However, the migration part is not the issue. It's what happens after it's migrated. I can see the site and interact with it as a visitor, but I cannot log in to the WordPress application because it doesn't recognize my admin credentials.
Your admin login will be what it was for the original website prior to the migration, not necessarily the same as when you installed WordPress. Have you tried the "Forgot Password" link? I'm not sure that would work on a local install.
Just so it's clear, it's only the local site that I am having this problem, and the problem doesn't exist until after the site is migrated and I am forced to update my database.
In all of the tutorial videos I have watched on YouTube, none show this update database requirement. So, I don't know why I am forced to do that. Puzzled.
@MarionBlack the previous reply was deleted, somehow. The "forgot password" feature doesn't recognize my email. When the database updates, it is doing something to either my wp-config or wp-login php files.
Can you access the database using phpMyAdmin or download it and view it in Notepad++?
I've only used WAMP and XAMPP not Local by Flywheel so I don't have any experience that would help. Sorry 😒
I have not tried as I thought phpMyAdmin was only accessible through your control panel, which would mean it would only work on my active website. I don't have a problem with the active site, just the local one. If I am wrong, please enlighten me as to how to do this. Thanks!
Maybe I should try another tool to see if I get the same issue. Are WAMP and XAMPp free tools?
Yes, they're both free. XAMPP works cross-platform and WAMP is for a Windows based computer.
Did you set up the change of domain name when you created the All In One WP Migration backup?
Sorry, I'm a bit rusty on local installs. You may get better advice by doing a Google or YouTube search.
Okay. I have a Mac, so will give XAMPP a go when I get home. Thanks again for all your help ~ wish me luck 😁🤓
Think I missed this in your earlier message and just heard it again in this video: https://youtu.be/K-KEPQEcaKo
You both are telling me to use my login/password from my live site to access my local site. That makes no sense to me, but it is something I have not tried to this point. When I get home from work, I will try that out before going with the other options you mentioned.
Thank you so much for your assistance. I was able to log in to my local site, change the theme, and then export those changes back to my live website. Thank you, thank you!!!
