well those screens match my wife's phone, so maybe if you have a friend that has an iphone, you can compare them side by side,and see if you are really missing those screens compared to your friends.  if you are then you know it's something up with your phone and you can take it to the apple store.

Just to confirm, your wife has an iPhone 5 with iOS 6? I'm wondering if something changed in iOS 6.  I will try this with my friend's phone, but she has the same phone/OS as me.

To follow up, I tried the process of adding a new mail account on my friend's phone and it was exactly the same as I described. My guess is that the OS changed in version 6, but I'd need more information from other people's recent experiences.

I find it interesting that no where is there an answer for this. I checked the Apple site also and nothing. In IOS 6, they changed the way mail is and took away the advanced tab. I guess phones Verizon sells cant show Verizon email. Something like this should be brought up in the sales pitch I think.

I found a set of instructions through the Apple Support Community forum that work: http://smallbusiness.chron.com/syncing-verizon-email-ipad-32074.html

I'm surprised other new iphone users with iOS 6 haven't had this issue, but maybe nobody uses Verizon email.

It worked for me, too.  I am also a new iPhone user with iOS6 who uses Verizon email. We're out there!

Thank you for posting it.  I was going in circles until I tried that link.

Thanks for solving this problem!

I was so confused. I'm surprised that Verizon has not updated its instructions for iOS6 yet.

Hi can someone help me access my verizon.net on my iphone email app,  I've been trying for a week.. I have changed my incoming settings to incoming.yahoo.verizon and changed outgoing settings as well.  Techs at the Verizon store are no help either.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  I have same problem on IPAD also.   Thx

One problem is that Verizon doesn't support IMAP.  This means that I have to POP my home Verizon email to my laptop unless I want to use Verizon's clunky webmail interface.  I don't want to also POP mail to my Samsung Note cell phone, as I would then have email in both places that isn't replicated. ,  What's a person to do???
