Adding Microsoft Exchange account to Iphone

I ahve been trying to setup a Microsoft Exchange account on mu Iphone so i can receive work emails, when i put the server details in i get the " failed" error message. I have taken the server details from my desktop outlook. Any ideas?

Has your IT department done what they HAVE to do to allow it to work. They have to have things setup on the mail server to allow such access.

Cannot remove or deactivate a Microsoft Exchange account on iPhone.

I recently joined a Company and activate my email on my iPhone via Microsoft Exchange. After the email account has been set, some of the features on my iphone were deactivated. And I cannot remove the passcode and the email account as well. Any help?

Speak to your Exchange Admins about this issue, as they are the ones that placed the limits.

Microsoft Exchange Contacts to iPhone contacts

I had my iPhone set up to sync with a Microsoft Exchange server, at work, as my default account for dates and contacts. I have left that company and want to know if the contacts that show up under the Microsoft Exchange account can be transferred to the basic iPhone contacts directory? I am afraid if I turn off Microsoft Exchange contacts off as my default account I will lose all of my contacts.

Yes, if you turn off Exchange the contacts will disappear. Apparently, an app called iDrive Lite will allow you to export those contacts from the phone:

Google added as Exchange Account (mail, contacts, cal), issues with contact #'s resolving to Names.

Google added as exchange account (mail, contacts, calendar), all works except contact correlation. Meaning somebody calls me, it's in the contact list but does not show name just the #. Same for outbound calls..search contacts, tap #, phone shows I'm dialing # versus contact name. This is completely goofy. I had a previous emplorers Exchange account working perfectly before I had to delete it. I removed all email accounts from iPhone and started fresh with adding Google as Exchange 'type' account.

Ok I fixed this problem. Within Google under contacts I had imported 1,200+ contacts and they all showed up there, on my iPad and iPhone. But on the phone name and # would not correlate. I discovered that by editing a contact (within Google contacts page) it would mark it as 'My Contacts' in addition to being Imported on xx/xx/xx. Once I did this, magically my iphone call log would display the name of the contact I edited/reclassified as 'My Contacts'. So I reclassified all the contacts as 'My Contacts' and now have full functionality. End of **** story and hope this helps somebody else.

Hi,
The problem could be the currency of the valuation area. It has to be the local currency. Maybe the company code has the local currency but the valuation currency is another.
Without having access to your system it is difficult to say. Maybe double check your customizing for assignment of update types for derived business transactions in spro:
Transaction Manager
-> General Settings
     -> Accounting
         -> Settings for Position Management
              -> Derived Business Transactions
                  -> Update Types
                      -> Assign Update Types for Derived Business Transactions
I hope this is helpful.

Eversince installed Mountain Lion, i can't receive emails from my Microsoft Exchange account!! Why is this so?

Eversince installed Mountain Lion, i can't receive emails from my Microsoft Exchange account!!
Why is this so? I don't have this problem prior to installing the Mountain Lion OS X

Have you tried 10.8.1? It includes fixes in this area. Usually the problem is if Active Directory is returning incorrect Exchange information in response to an Autodiscover request. In 10.8.1 you can manually edit this information.

Auto Signature - Microsoft Exchange Account

Dear Experts,
I use a Microsoft Exchange Account on Q10 - The issue is that I have to separately set auto signatures in my device. I would like to use the same auto signatures as configured in the Exchange Account, so that I don't have to separately set up in the device. Is this possible?
Regards, Ajay.

Copy and paste them from one of your emails into the Signature settings for the account. There's no way to automatically link them, to the Exchange account signature.

Cannot use Microsoft Exchange account to connect to Google Apps hosted accounts.

I am the Desktop and Device support Coordinator for my Department. We use Google Apps to host our email, calendar, docs, etc. On iOS and Android devices to connect we use an exchange account.
Email: [email protected]
Server: m.google.com
Domain: domain.com
Username: username
And it works just fine. However when we give the touchpad the same info, we get an error, bad username or password. This is using passwords greater than 12 characters, with spaces and special characters.
Username: username
Email: [email protected]
Server: https://m.google.com
Domain: domain.com
Any though on what we are doing wrong, or does webos exchange accounts not suppor this?
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

First, changing the password and trying it again with the "Google" account type doesn't work. And it shouldn't, on every other device (Android, iOS) if we try it with the standard "Google" account it does not work.
Now on every other device we use the "Microsoft Exchange" account type and it does work. Because Google provides a Microsoft Exchange account to act as a connector to their services.
Remember, this is not a standard google account, this is an App account, and as such cannot use the standard google login. If I tried to login to any of our app service (mail.google.com, calendar.google.com, docs.google.com) from it's google site it fails. The only way we can access the account is through a special login page that ties into our single sign on (mail.example.com, cal.example.com, docs.example.com), or use the Exchange Connector.
Now if the Microsoft Exchange account connection does not work in webOs to connect to Google, great. We return our tablets, and discourage pre's. But I really like webOS and would really like to use the touch pad and keep my pre.

HT201320 Added a gmail account on iPhone IOS 7 software.

Added a gmail account on iPhone IOS 7 software. Success but it downloaded over 163,000 emails. How can I restrict it to downloading only the most recent 50?

Thanks. It did not happen in IOS 6.1. I am going to check around.

HT2480 My e-mail, exchange account, on iphone, displays an out of date signature. My Outlook displays the correct signature but this does not appear to have replicated to my iphone.

My e-mail, exchange account, on iphone, displays an out of date signature. My Outlook displays the correct signature but this does not appear to have replicated to my iphone. The standard signature still says "sent from my iphone" which is fine but I need desperately to change the exchange signature as the office address is incorrect.

I have already tried that and this doesn't work. The signature is pulling incorrectly from exchange but I don't know how.

"The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable" when adding second Exchange account to Outlook 2013

I have a problem that I've found to be typical, just haven't found anything that describes my exact problem.
I'm having trouble adding a second Exchange 2010 server account to Outlook 2013 in one of the computers of the domain. Outlook 2013 will complain with "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete
this action".
I've Googled and found many threads with the same error... however most of those seem to be either a problem with the server, or the Global Catalog in Active Directory, or the "connection method" (I've tried all found solutions to no avail).
This is not the case, since the first account is added with absolutely no problem. It can send and receive and I can delete the outlook profile and recreate it and it'll give no problems. I have this problem only when adding a second account.
This is a fresh Windows 8.1 install with an up-to-date Outlook 2013. I have other computers in the same domain and network, with the same setup (Win 8.1 + Outlook 2013) configured with two exchange accounts with no problem.
There are no connectivity problems, I can access that same account through OWA and in other computers on the network... the Global Catalog seems to be fine (shows two active DCs, which is correct).
I've tried deleting and recreating the outlook profiles, repairing the outlook installation, even deleting all outlook files in AppData and letting it recreate them, with no success.
Any hints of what could be going on?
Before I speak, I have something important to say.

Hi Javier,
Thank you for the update.
I have tested on my lab and get following result.
Lab: Exchange 2010, CAS Array (CAS01+CAS02), MBX01, DC
Type Server Field
Check name result
Changed Server Field
CAS01.domain.com
Yes
CASArray.domain.com
CASArray.domain.com
Yes
CASArray.domain.com
DC.domain.com
Yes
CASArray.domain.com
MBX01.domain.com
No
"The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable"
Based on my knowledge, the reason why inputing DC FQDN in the Server Field fixes this issue is that Outlook performs AD Lookup and finds the account configuration from AD, then back the CAS Array FQDN in the Server Field instead of DC FQDN.
Exchange 2010 is different from Exchange 2013, if you are using Exchange 2013, we need to input MailboxServerGUID.domain.com into Server Field.
If there is anything I’ve misunderstood, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Thanks,
Steve Fan

Microsoft Exchange Account On an iPhone 5

I feel pretty stupid about this. I have an Iphone 5 with the newest software. I have a school email account that is Microsoft Exchange. I use my MacBookPro at school to check the Exchange account just fine using wireless that is provided here at school; not a physical ethernet connection.
I cannot get my Iphone to connect to the Exchange email. I have looked at the settings in my laptop Mail account and it all seems like pretty conventional settings, but it just won't connect. It says it cannot find the server, which is "mail.polo222.org".
I don't have much recourse to any IT help, as our IT man is rabidly anti-mac and is a physics teacher turned IT guy and I don't think is always up to speed on the latest networking (even though he is far more along than I am).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Brian
For what it is worth, I have a comcast account and an AOL account that work just fine on the Iphone. I don't really undestand the differences in IMAP and POP terms, but I believe Exchange is something different from either one of them. I didn't make those choices when trying to set up the account; I just chose "Exchange" when first given the choice.

I don't know if ActiveSync is enabled or not. I'm not great with this stuff and our IT guy is unhelpful. I think I am the only one in the building who even check school email from home, so I don't know if anyone else has a phone or tablet that will check email. Does the fact that my laptop will check it fine on any wireless connection help?
Just a thought for Apple. This seems like something that when I connected my Iphone to my laptop, it would have made all of those settings by copying from my Mail. Of course, that may seem easy and in fact be staggeringly difficult.
My apologies for not having an informed answer to your question.

Can't verify my microsoft exchange account

Hi there,
I have used microsoft exchange email for university which worked with my iphone 4 no problem.
My work have created a microsoft exchange email for me and I have followed the steps on instructions however it repeatedly tells me "cannot verify account".
I don't know what this means or what to do about it. I am following the instructions verbatim.
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Rich

I am setting up a new mail exchange on my Iphone5s and it will can't validate. I have verified with all in my office that I have entered the correct informaiton. Yet it still does not verify the account. I have done everything you listed and verified my creditals are correct. Is there anything else that can be done?

Repeated password prompts with a Microsoft Exchange account

I use an 32GB iPod touch running the latest iPhone software as a PDA and music player. To help me keep organised, I use my company Wi-Fi network to connect to our Microsoft Exchange server. I think we are running the 2003 version.
From time to time, the iPod prompts me for my Exchange password. If I enter it, it reports a login failure. When our sysadmin - who is very good - looks at the Exchange Server log files, it shows a successful login attempt. He mentioned that he is also seeing occasional funny behaviour with iPhones, but that Windows Mobile devices seem to have no trouble.
Is this an iPhone software glitch, please? If so, is it likely that it will be fixed in the near future?

Right...thanks for that...but, from all that I understand, OWA offers only email OTA...not calendar nor contacts nor anything else. As I said earlier, invites that arrive in email will go onto the BB calendar since they come in as an email. But, if an appointment is, for instance, added directly to the Outlook calendar, then it will not appear on the BB calendar.
All of the behavior you describe does not match with the behavior as I understand it for a BIS/OWA connection. All of the behavior you describe does match a BES connected device (with some problems in erroneously auto-deleting calendar items).
Hence, all of the confusion...sorry I can't be more help.
