Auto check mail settings

Can some one help. my iPhone does not have auto check settings. Where can i get them.

If you have an yahoo email account set up on your phone you will not have the auto check option because yahoo it's suppose to push your emails as soon as they are received at the server level
If you go to Settings>Mail>Select the Yahoo account> Advanced and turn Use push mail to OFF the auto check option will show up under Settings>Mail

  • Where did "Auto-Check Mail" go?

    I was trying to check if my auto-check was enabled and I can't find it. I did some searching and found this article.
    It says to go to Settings > Mail > Auto-Check. But when I go to Settings > Mail there is no Auto-Check. I only see:
    Accounts
    Yahoo!
    Add Account...
    Messages
    Show
    Preview
    Minimum Font Size
    Show To/Cc Label
    Ask Before Deleting
    Sending
    Always Bcc Myself
    Signature
    Default Account
    I see nothing about Auto-Check. If I go into my default account (Yahoo!) I see:
    Account (ON/OFF)
    *Yahoo! Account Information*
    Name
    Address
    Password
    Description
    Advanced
    Within ^ Advanced I see:
    *Mailbox Behaviors*
    Drafts Mailbox
    Sent Mailbox
    Deleted Mailbox
    Deleted Messages
    Remove
    *Yahoo! Settings*
    Use push mail (ON/OFF)
    I don't remember having this much trouble finding it before. Is there something wrong with my iPhone, or did Apple change it in an update and I haven't heard about it?
    Thanks for any help.
    Maybe I'm just tired and it's staring me right in the face. I dunno...

    Hello Garner, this is what to do, from iphones main screen go to settings, then mail, tap on your Yahoo account, tap advanced, you will then see an option to turn Push email on/off (provided you have 1.1.1 software on your iphone) toggle Push off, return to the main screen, go back into settings, select mail, you will now see the option for auto check- manual, 15min, 30min, 1hour. Hope this helps, Steve...

  • Auto check in Mail App on iPhone 4

    Hi,
    Sometimes the Mail App automatically checks for new e-mails and alerts me... but not always.
    A few times in the last couple of weeks I've missed staying in "live" contact with friends because the Mail App did not check for new messages at all until I began to compose a new message and the app would then download the e-mail hours after it was sent.
    I've googled the issue but the only thing I can find is to use "auto checking" in Settings, but that does not exsist anymore it seems.
    Can anyone help?
    Cheers

    New emails should automatically get pushed onto your device; however if you have read your emails on a different computer or device it will still show as unread on your iphone.
    follow the following steps make sure that they are right:
    Settings
    Mail Contacts Calendar
    Fetch new Data
    Ensure that “Push” is on
    Ensure that “Every 15 Minutes” is selected
    Go down to advanced
    Select the accounts outstanding and change them to “Push”

  • Where is the auto check for Mail?

    Before the 2.0 update, I could set the Mail app for auto check every 30 minutes or so, not in 2.0, I cannot find this option any more. Can I still make this setting somewhere?
    André

    The setting is in Settings > Fetch New Data. Set Fetch to 30 min (other options are 15 min and hourly).
    You'll want Push set to OFF, unless you have a need for it and your email account supports it (MobileMe, Yahoo, or an MS Exchange server do); push uses a lot of battery power, so if you don't have a need for it, leave it off.
    Hope this helps...

  • Mavericks Mail won't auto check

    I have Mail preferences set to check Mail every five minutes which it has done correctly forever. Just yesterday, I noticed it is no longer checking mail automatically. I have to check manually in order to retrieve new emails. (I have set and reset the mail-check preference choice to no avail.)
    I assume maybe a preferences file has gotten corrupted (?). Is there a pref file I can delete that might allow me to restor auto-check in Mail without it deleting all my other Mail settings?
    Thanks for any help,
    WK

    Hi William,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you are encountering this symptom:
    For some email providers, new email messages in Mail may only appear to arrive when Mail is first opened. No new email arrives until Mail is quit and reopened.
    You may want to verify this by testing the workaround in this article:

  • I'm unable to send and receive email through Apple Mail 4.  I've checked my settings on Preferences, and my password to Gmail is up to date for syncing with IMAP, but it still won't connect.  Suggestions?

    I'm unable to send and receive email through Apple Mail 4.  I've checked my settings on Preferences, and my password to Gmail is up to date for syncing with IMAP, but it still won't connect.  Suggestions?

    I think it's trying to open it in a gMail eMail & is losing your gMail password that it needs log into gMail, but not 100% positive.
    Have you tried Right clicking or Control+click on the eMail link & choose Copy? Works on some, not others.

  • I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have check all mail settings for ID and password.

    In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it - sometimes that resolves this
    Or IMHO the best long term solution is to set Apple Mail as the iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it - it has a number of advatages and has fewer problems

  • Check SMTP SETTINGS:tap settings:mail, contacts, calendars: no respons, dead

    check SMTP SETTINGS (iPad1): tap settings: mail, contacts, calendars:  NO RESPONS! THE SCREEN FREEZES AND BLOCKS!!! I've aready done a hard reset but no actions when I tap settings: mail-contacts-calendars.  HELP !!

    Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
    However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
    Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.

  • Since my last software update the auto rotation on both my ipad air and my iphone 5c won't work. I have tried everything, including; checking the auto-lock - it isn't on lock. I've checked the settings in the Control Centre and they're as they should be.

    Since my last update the auto rotation on both my ipad & my iphone has stopped working. I've done all the usual stuff to correct it but no joy. I've reset, rebooted, turned off then back on, checked all settings including those for the side switch and everything is as it should be except the rotation still doesn't work. There are no open apps, movies or videos that could be locking the screen so I am now totally stumped.
    Any suggestions please?

    The fact that gs.apple.com was in your host file to begin with is an indicator that your computer was used to jailbreak or hack an iOS device at some point in the past. You can not get help here for a hacked or jailbroken device. If your phone was hacked or jailbroken, Apple won't touch it.
    RecBoot and Tinyumbrella are hacking tools.
    Google "iPhone DFU mode".
    Try restoring in DFU mode. If that doesn't fix it, make an appointment at the genius bar and see what Apple has to say about it.

  • I am not receiving new emails on my phone.  I am receiving a pop-up that reads "cannot get mail" saying my server is not responding and to check my settings.  My settings are correct. Help!

    Looking for help.... I keep getting a pop-up message on my phone stating that my server is not responding and to check my settings.  My settings are fine.  Any advice on what I can do to receive new emails on my phone?  Help!

    For a few weeks I have been using the GMail app on my iPhone 4S to get mail without problem.  When I wanted to check something in Apple's Mail app, which has worked well for years, I now get a message for my principal email address that the server is "not responding," even though the same server is responding to my GMail app.  For some reason, when I dismissed the message in Mail, it popped up again, but then could be dismissed.  Did something change in Mail that requires some imap addresses be deleted and readded?  Any idea?
    I would not want to think that Mail is programmed to befuddle if it is ignored too long.

  • TS3276 Sound works fine on all programs, but has suddenly stopped on Apple Mail.  No "submarine" sound when I send or receive email.  I checked the settings in "Preferences" in Apple Mail and it is set to "submarine" as the sound.  Any help?

    deleted previously imported key chain originated from the previous system (why doesn't apple provide a migration for my key chain?). after the deletion mail can receive and send again and dreamweaver starts without hanging.
