I bought my wife the iPad 2 Air last Christmas because she claims her old one was erratic - (I think it was her). I'm in the process of resetting everything on the old one to match my iPhone and MacBook Pro, but I cannot get the email icon to bring up my email.

I have signed her out and signed in with mine, deleted her iCloud, Yahoo, and Hotmail addresses and added mine, but can't figure out how to get my email thru the icon at the bottom. Hers is still showing up.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Have you gone into settings, mail and checked to make sure your address is set to fetch, too? If all looks OK, try deleting your email and then putting it in again.
 
Got it! Thanks Newton. I switched from push to fetch and then deleted and added the accounts again. This time I noticed a "Save" at the top rh side of the screen that I probably missed before but it's fine now. Thanks again.
