Apple Mail internet connection problem

i  am able to download pages, check on icloud my email, etc. but I am unable to download or send mail via apple mail.
is there a specific reason for that?
I am quite often using public libraries and it's mainly there the problem exists - in some it's impossible, in others (after a lot of trying) it is possible.
Is there any solution?
Mark

I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

  • Gmail Google Apple Mail Set Up Problem

    I have had my Gmail POP account working successfully for about a year. I recently switched my internet provider and since then I can not get Apple Mail of my Jabber iChat account to work.
    The problem I get with Apple mail is: Connection Failed The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "pop.gmail.com" on port 995 timed out.
    The iChat message is: Could not connect to Jabber. Could not connect to host talk.google.com
    I sent many emails to Google showing them my set up and they could not help. They said I should contact my internet provider.
    Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix this?
    Thanks, Nick

    My new ISP provider which is ERSnet.net could provide now help. I am forced to use them because of my stupid apartment complex. I miss comcast Anyway, ERSnet.net say everything Apple Mail should work but they admitted that no one at the company understands or uses Apple Computers. Their website www.ersnet.net has a section for FAQ which is pretty bad as well.

  • Some Gmail features have failed to load due to an Internet connectivity problem.

    This error message comes up both using Firefox and Chrome when using G mail. Also if it works at all,
    switching from compose to draft just takes very long or keeps working.
    No problem with G mail using Internet Explorer or Safari.
    I have used Firefox for many years & want to go back when I can solve this Vexing problem.

    Thank you for your help.
    I reset Firefox, re started and wanted to answer using G mail with Firefox,
    and the same error message comes up.. When it does the screan gets
    very lite with the error message on top.
    '''''Some Gmail features have failed to load due to an Internet connectivity problem. If this problem persists, try reloading the page, or using the basic HTML version. Learn More.'''''
    I am now using Explorer to send this!

  • OSX Mavericks having internet connection problems.

    Just updated to OSX Mavericks on my early 2011 MacBook Pro, and it's having internet connection problems. I'm using wi-fi, and so far only Firefox and Mail will connect. All other programs (such as iTunes and App Store) won't establish a connection. This is a problem that only started after I installed Mavericks. What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

    App Store / iTunes Store relies on Safari settings if you can't access secure sites from Safari then they won't work...  Reset Safari  and make sure Block Cookies Setting is not set to Always.  You can also try to create a new user and see if it works there to help isolate the issue.

  • Internet connection problems with OSX 10.10.3

    Does anyone else have very bad Internet connection problems after downloading OSX 10.101.3?  Does anyone have a solution? P.S. What do you think of PHOTOS, after Aperture?

    1, No problems here with internet on 10.10.3
    2, No solution
    3, I think that Photos is a toy. Apple has basically neutered both Aperture and iPhotos with their efforts to make their desktop solution match the iOS solution.
    I am currently looking for a non-Apple solution for my photographic needs since Photos in no way shape or form is able to fill my needs.

  • Omni 10 mostly internet connection problem, also difficulties responding generally

    Dear all,
    For two weeks now i am proud owner of an omni 10 tablet. However, i already encountered some problems like the loss of the audio System, which was luckily restored with the help of the hp support via telephone.
    Unfortunately, my tablet is not properly connecting to the internet since yesterday. It also has problems opening PDF files with 'adobe read', deleting or newly creating appointments in the challenger app and foremost it sometimes does not open the settings section depite repeatedly tapping on its button..
    Most important currently is the internet connection problem. Is connects but says at the same time that the connection is limited. Additionally, it does not offer any solutions to this. That happend with three differend routers so far..
    I hope you can help me

  • Is Apple Mail having a problem ?

    Is Apple Mail having a problem ?    I can't send or receive Mail on my iMac.

    Apple "Mail" is an App on your computer.  We would not know if your "Mail" app is having a problem.  Your Profile above says you are using OS X 10.4.10 :Is that accurate?  If not, could you please update it so we can help you correctly.  If you are really running 10.8, and are referring to iCloud's mail service, the problem is most likely in your settings in "Mail">Preferences>Accounts.  That has to be correctly configured to send and recieve thru iCloud.

  • Internet connectivity problems. Conflicting IP address?

    For the last few months I have been experiencing significant internet connection problems on my mac mini. Although at times my connection is ok, the majority of the time I'm suffering from what would best be described as an "intermittent" internet connection. It seems that my internet connection is constantly cutting out for short periods of time before re-establishing itself.
    I'm connected to the internet via a wireless network (netgear router). There are also two windows machines (one laptop and one desktop) and a PS3 connected on the same network (also occasionally there is a macbook connected to the network too).
    I've been with the same ISP for over a year now and previously had always experienced a good connection, also all the other devices connected on this network seem to have fine connectivity so I doubt there is any problem with my service provider.
    It could be a coincidence but the emergence of the problem seems to have conincided with my flatmates purchase of a laptop. When my flatmate first connected his laptop to the internet I received a message on my mac mini stating there was an IP address conflict, although I have not had that message again and I seem to suffer from bad connectivity at all times, not just when my flatmates laptop is turned on! Could these to issues be related?
    I'd be very grateful for any advice on how to resolve this issue as it's getting to be a very significant problem, thanks in advance for any replies...

    Also try using the open dns servers instead or your ISP's. System Preferences>Network. Advanced>DNS. Click on + and add the following: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Hit Ok,then Apply.

  • Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas

    Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas, nothing is workable- such as- restaring the iphone, reseting the networks etc... Please help me out from this problem..

    to be clear, my phone works fine when not in motion in a vehicle.  If I pull over and come to a complete stop, remaining in the car, my phone works.
    And while the phone is not working when I'm in motion, an internet search or a text message will go through, but I can not use Siri or any voice assistance when doing the text message or internet search.  The microphone is greyed out.
    So this is a unique issue, which appears to be the iPhone and not Verizon.

  • Persistent internet connection problems.

    Every 8 months I get a spate of internet connection problems that last for a few months. (Meaning I get relief for two months at a time, and bad service for two months). When the previous bout of internet connection issues happened I was fortunate enough to get a good technician who showed me how to reset the connection at the fios box at the entrance to my home, by unplugging the backup battery, unplugging the connection box and then reconnecting the battery and plugging back in the connection box. The technician had remarked that there were problems with the main fios connection system to the townhouses, and somehow that got fixed.
    This time I have not had as much luck. The technicians on duty have had me reset the cable router (which isn't the problem) and even replace the cable router (also not the problem). Fortunately I have remembered the previous technician's solution and am doing that every three days, without contacting technical support since they have proven useless at this time, only continuing to have me get new routers that do not even connect without the previous steps.
    How do I get Verizion to bother to listen to me? At this time I am really wishing Cox was in my neighborhood, since I was able to go at least eight months straight without problems from them. 
    I am hoping that this causes someone to check on this problem. You had a good technician on technical support once, but  not now.
    By the way - this has been going on for over two years.
