8830 Stops checking email until a battery pull

Hello:
  I'm pretty new to BB's, the 8830 being my first one. My problem is that I have it set up to check a pop account but it seems that I need to pull the battery almost daily because it stops checking for new messages.  I've tried turning it off/on every which way and checked all the email settings, but it seems like once it loses it's connection, it won't try to check mail again until I've pulled the battery.  But, I'm afraid pulling the battery out every morning is going to wear it out (and me).  Are there any other options or commands I can run to tell my 8830 to check my pop account?  Thanks!

  • BB Curve 8900 - randomly stops receiving emails and requires battery pull

    I'm a newb to BB and this forum has helped a lot but my BB Curve 8900 randomly stops receiving emails about every 2 days and requires a battery pull to correct.
    When it stops receiving emails and I go to the browser, it is also unable to connect. I basically lose all connection to data. I can receive calls and sms.
    Turning unit off and on does not help.
    I need to do a battery pull. Then starts working fine right away.
    I'm with Rogers in Canada
    Is there a fix for this? Could I possibly have a bad phone? Battery pull once is a while is fine but to need to do that every 2 days is not.

    Something similar happens to me.  I have to keep resending the service books and then it works fine, try this, at least it will stop you keep doing a hard reset.  I have read somewhere else that this can be influenced by having your phone to turn off at night etc.  So for now I have turned this feature off.  I can actually receive emails via wifi and the failure is only on GPRS.  It sounds a bit strange but I am also becoming convinced that it only occurs when I leave home, go somewhere else and then come back.
    Read this below.  I did do all this but it hasnt worked for me, may help you though

  • Stratosphere keeps checking email and killing battery!!

    Hello, I am getting VERY frustrated with my Stratosphere.  I recently had it replaced by Verizon because a fully charged battery was lasting 4-6 hours and it was responding very slowly to commands..and I have lots of things already turned off.  I set up my main email account and re-added my 2 additional yahoo mail accounts.  I was able to set it so my main email only checks when I ask, but the Yahoo one will not stop giving me updates !! I keep going in andf turning off notifications in the email setup but it isn't working.  It keeps vibrating and chiming as soon as I uncheck notifications and changes sound to "none".  How do I shut it up and make my battery last? 

        Hello Tapsmom,
    Thanks for reaching out to us. We certainly don't want you to have to worry about your battery legnth. When you are entering the settings for the yahoo mail, are you going through the general settings on the phone or going into the app and going into its settings. You should be able to access the app and press the menu button to get settings for those specific email accounts. Then you should be able to change the settings to turn off "notifications" as well as sync. Turning syncing off will allow you to get a manual push once you want to go check the mail. Also, since you have multiple yahoo accounts, are you using the stock Yahoo app or a 3rd party app to check those emails? 3rd party apps may have different push settings that will need to be changed. Please let us know if you need anymore help.

  • 8830 Verizon stopped receiving emails

    My Verizon 8830 stopped receiving emails about 5 days ago. I can send emails and access the internet. I was 20 days into a 30 day trial of Antair Spam Blocker. It seemd to be working well in its limited form. So, yesterday after not receiving any mail for 5 days, I removed Aintair from the unit. & still no new emails arrived. This moring I resnt the service books to my phone which indicated that my Blackberry has been activated to receive emails. I sent two test emails that got to my desktop computer but didn't get to my Blackberry and not a single email since 10:30 AM this morning. It must be a software issue right? Anyone please help.

    what kind off email address you have set up on BIS and how do you check mail on your computer?

  • Mail stops checking for new mail until closed and re-opened

    This problem began a month or so ago and is only getting worse by the day.  I have my Mail app set to check for new mail every minute, but recently it randomly stops checking at all and displays the triangle icon next to each Inbox.  I have 10 different email accounts that I use Mail to check and they are a variety of different types from Exchange servers, to IMAP accounts, to POP accounts, iCloud, Outlook.com, Gmail, etc.  Part of the time only 2 or 3 inboxes are affected, while other times (more recently) it’s ALL accounts.  Clicking on Get Mail doesn’t help; no new mail is downloaded.  The only way to get Mail to “wake up” is to close the app and then re-open it.  When I do that, there is a flood of new mail that pours in to each account that had been offline.  There are never any error messages telling me that anything has happened.  I just know that Mail is stuck because of the triangle icon. 
    Also, there are times when my busiest account mysteriously has no new messages over a few hours, which is very unusual. Closing and re-opening mail will resume downloading mail again to that account.  At least for awhile...
    I thought I’d solved the problem by thinking that my router was only working intermittently, so I replaced it with a new Time Capsule.  The problem did not go away.
    I’ve talked to Apple Support and they’ve not been any help.  I’d welcome any suggestions.

  • Cannot access emails or facebook, screen freezes despite multiple battery pulls

    Hello, today my Storm 2 started acting funny. I tried to access my email but when I click my yahoo email icon nothing happens. I tried to enter the Messages icon and was able to open that screen but the messages from the last 24 hours or so are all compressed in to one line at the top of the list and none areopenable and I can't scroll through the list of messages. Next I tried to open facebook application which opened to the newsfeed and then froze.
    I have tried numerous battery pull resets and nothing has resolved the problem.
    What else can I do?

  • Mozilla shows NOT RESPONDING until it loads the pages completely, for FACEBOOK and checking EMAILS on yahoo and google

    Mozilla shows NOT RESPONDING until it loads the pages completely, for FACEBOOK and checking EMAILS on yahoo and google.
    You can't do anything, you should just wait.

    I'm getting a similar error over here. Sporadically some sites won't load specifically in Safari; they open just fine in Opera, Firefox and Camino though. This is really annoying.
    It's pretty clear it's nothing network related…

  • ITunes radio starts playing after I check email.  What can I do to stop that from happening.  It is a nuisance to open iTunes and pause the song playing.

    On my iPhone 5c, after I check email or other apps not related to phone use, frequently iTunes radio starts playing.  I have learned to open app and pause the song being played.  Is there a way to not have that happen?

    HI,
    Most likely this is the server end and may improve on changing ports

  • Z10 Phone Ring Going Silent Until Battery Pull, and Sometimes Loosing Its Knowing Its ID Information

    I had a number of instances where the phone would no longer ring. No ring, or notifications have been modified.
    The temporay fix is to do a battery pull and allow a full reset.
    I found this happens sometimes after installing and then uninstalling a downloaded program from Blackberry World formerly known as App World.  I also noticed this issue sometimes happening after updates have been installed.
    The unfortunate part of this is if the Bluetooth earphone is not being used calls will be missed because the phone will be silent. I found there was no ring because I had messages and callers displayed during periods where I should have heard the phone ringing.
    I also had issues where the phone lost the capability for it to know its ID. In this case the backup, or restore, and downloads will not respond. The fix is a battery pull.
    I had one time where the battery pull did not fix it. I had to re-install the OS for the phone to become normal again.
    Jerry G.

    Personally, I think this is a super deluxe great phone. I like everything about the Z10 from a user point of view. We have a number of these Z10 phones and love them. When the Q10 comes out, we may get a few to use as keyboard phones.
    I am thinking the OS was not exactly ready for release. There are some important missing issues and bugs that I have been running in to. I cannot see during testing that these bugs did not come out because there are many users who are having them.

  • Stopped receiving email messages

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8300 and my ISP is earthlink.net. Everything has been working fine until today, when I stopped receiving email messages on my Blackberry. I just checked, and I can send messages fine, evidently, but not receiving them.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hmmm...I'd suggest a couple of things. First, a reboot:
    With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation.
    If that fails, then try resending your service books:

    Give those a try and let us know.

  • Shared Reminders: How do I stop getting emails when changes are made?

    My wife and I both have iPhone 5's that we bought 2 weeks ago. We are sharing a calendar and a "Grocery" list in reminders. I have everything set up where it is working properly but I keep getting emails when a change is made to the grocery list. I don't get emails when there are changes to the calendar.
    I want to stop getting emails when there are changes made to our grocery list but I am not sure how to do it. We both have icloud accounts and we both have checked the box under preferences in my calendar for "in app notifications" for icloud invitations. When I open Reminders in icloud I don't see a preferences for reminders.
    If it helps , or makes any difference, my wife has a yahoo mail account and I have a hotmail account. She does not get emails about changes being made.
    thanks

    Did you try to switch Push "off" and fetch to "manually"? This way no mail is delivered until you choose to open the mail app. The moment you open Mail on your device, your mail account will be checked and if any, mail will be delivered.
    Fetch New Data
    This setting lets you turn Push on or off for MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, Yahoo!, and any other push accounts on iPhone. Push accounts deliver new information to iPhone whenever new information appears on the server (some delays may occur). You might want to turn Push off to suspend delivery of email and other information, or to conserve battery life.
    When Push is off, and with accounts that don’t support push, data can still be fetched—that is, iPhone can check with the server and see if new information is available. Use the Fetch New Data setting to determine how often data is requested. For optimal battery life, don’t fetch too often.
    Turn Push on: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” > Fetch New Data, then tap to turn Push on.
    Set the interval to fetch data: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” > Fetch New Data, then choose how often you want to fetch data for all accounts.
    To conserve battery life, fetch less frequently.
    Setting Push to OFF (or setting Fetch to Manually on the Fetch New Data screen) overrides individual account settings.

  • Blackberry stopped receiving emails

    Hi,
    this morning my Blackberry suddenly stopped receiving emails. I removed the battery, checked all my settings, no joy. Seems like this issue came up earlier in the week in another part of the world...  I am in the U.S..   Anyone have a solution or know what might be causing this?
    thanks

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    There is an ongoing major outage...formal information is available here:
    http://www.rim.com/newsroom/service-update.shtml
    From my experience, this is affecting BIS, BES, and all services that depend on those (BBM, email, AppWorld, web browsing, application access to internet data, etc.). Troubleshooting specific problems during this outage may be pointless.
    Once the outage clears, if things are not yet flowing for you, please try these steps:
    1) Register HRT
    Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
    2) Resend Service Books
    KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    3) Batt Pull Reboot
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you!
    Cheers!

  • TB stopped receiving emails after one with huge attachment. Updated TB. Can send but not receive. Using Yahoo POP server. Browser access works fine.

    Several days ago, after receiving a 7MB attachment, I stopped receiving email on my Yahoo POP account. Browser access to the Yahoo server works fine. I obviously deleted that message and attachment but curiously, it and only it continued to be downloaded to my inbox!!! I tried downloading a new TB and installing it. Nothing changed except that specific email no longer appeared (another did though, see later). Settings are to leave msgs on server until I delete them. I transferred all my inbox to a local folder and then compacted mail and tried testing reception from another source and nothing appeared on TB, just on browser access. Oddly, one very old message repeatedly appears, I assume as a result of the auto check for new mail but not sure. Though I try to delete this old message, I can't. I haven't removed and recreated account yet because I don't want to lose all the filter history. Scanned for solution and can't find any. Any ideas, please?

    Starting your mac in safe mode will disable the Symantec stuff long enough to download mail. Should the issue arise again

  • Iphone randomly stops pushing email

    My iphone 5s has recently decided to stop pushing email...sometimes.  Today for example all was good until about the afternoon when I didn't get any more email messages, or so I thought, when I checked my computer tonight I had 5 new email messages but my phone showed nothing, it always fixes itself when I open up mail on my phone it gets the new messages then starts to push messages again...until randomly a few days later it stops.
    This happens both with the mail app and my gmail app.  I can't seem to figure out it's problem.  I sometimes turn my wifi off and on when I don't want it to connect at work, but other than that there seems to be no logical reason for this.
    All apps and software are up to date.  This only seems to have started happening about a month or two ago.
    Other things like imessage and texts messages push just fine.

    Rachel,
    This reminds of me an issue we used to have with iPods -- often times it turns out to be a problem with one or more songs in your library. Were these all songs you purchased from the iTunes store, or did you get them elsewhere?
    If elsewhere, you may need to try a rebuild of your iTunes library. Here's the easiest way to start (and to see if this is the problem). First of all, do not do anything without a backup of your music (you need a backup of your music anyway). If you don't already have one use DVD writable media and any backup software and make sure you've written all your songs out. This is particularly important on any songs you've purchased (if they came from CDs you own that can be considered your backup, although you will have to rip them again).
    Now go to iTunes and in the library select all your songs (Ctrl-A) and press delete. Now -- be careful here, do not answer "Yes" when it asks you if you want to remove them from your hard drive. They will then disappear from iTunes but still be on your hard drive. Locate them on your hard drive (in Windows use Explorer). They will most likely be in your "My Music" folder but you can also search for them (if they came from outside the iTunes Music store they most likely have the extension MP3). Once you find them do not drag them all over into the library -- here's where we want to test something. Just drag over a few, not more than 10 or 20 (you can drag over a folder or two if each folder contains an album, which is normal).
    Try syncing again and if that works then you know a couple of things. After that you can drag all your music back into your library and try a sync and if that doesn't work you know there is something wrong with one or more of your songs. But often this may clear up any problems.
