To synchronize your iOS devices, including iPads and iPhones, with your Kerio Connect account:
- Install a profile with a SSL certificate, and IMAP, CardDAV and CalDAV accounts
- Create an Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) account
NOTE
Administrators should verify the correct ports are open on the firewall. See Server configuration below.
Creating accounts automatically
Creating an IMAP account
To synchronize your account via IMAP, CalDAV and CardDAV, use the auto-configuration tool:

- Tap Integration with device.
- Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
- Tap Continue.
- Type your username and password and tap Log In.
- On the Install profile page, tap Install.
- If your server uses, for example, a self-signed certificate, a warning may appear during the installation. Tap Install anyway.
- Tap Done.
Your iPhone is ready. To see additional settings, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on your iPhone, and select the account.
To select which folders to sync to your iPhone, see Synchronizing folders with mobile devices.

- In your iPhone browser, type the URL address of Kerio Connect Client.
- Tap Integration with device.
- Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
- Tap Use Exchange ActiveSync instead.

Due to the limitations of the Exchange ActiveSync protocol:
- Only the first three email addresses synchronize for each contact.
- The email address types don't synchronize (for example, work email, or home email).
Removing accounts
To remove profiles that has been installed via the auto-configuration tool, go to Settings > General > Profiles. Select the profile and tap Delete Profile.
You can remove also your Exchange ActiveSync account via your Kerio Connect Client. For more information refer to Resetting your mobile device in Kerio Connect Client.
