Auto check on iphone

Hey everyone.. My question is.. for some reason my auto check option on my iphone is m.i.a.. does anyone had this problem or knows how to get that back for my iphone?

I wish they would just add the autocheck feature to the Yahoo mail, and we can forget about the unreliable "push".
I had to point out this missing feature to an Apple store employee. She didn't beleive me. I had to explain that the Yahoo! Mail doesn't have this option 'cause it's supposed to push...which it's not doing reliably.

  • 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”

  • Iphone missing auto-check messages

    I just got my wife an iphone and when I went to set her auto-check for her email in her settings she doesnt have that option.....anybody have any ideas? Thanks!

    Push-IMAP is an IMAP protocol that doesn't require the incoming mail server for the account to be checked for new messages. As soon as a new message arrives at the incoming mail server for the account, the server "pushes" the message to the email client being used to access the account - in this case the iPhone's email client because a free Yahoo Push-IMAP account can be accessed with the iPhone's email client only - not with another email client on your computer.
    You have the option on the iPhone to access the account as Push or standard IMAP with the option to check the incoming mail server for new messages as with any standard email account.
    The Push protocol is designed to save battery life but you may find this isn't so.

  • Anyone know why the Auto Check feature is not on my iPhone?

    When watching the Finger Tips it shows under settings then mail there is an auto check feature. I am missing it

    No problem. The rationale for it is that, since Yahoo emails are supposed to get "pushed" to the iPhone, you don't need AutoCheck.
    The problem of course is that yahoo push email has not been very reliable for some people.
    The way around this is to set up another (non-Yahoo) email account on the iPhone, even if you don't plan to use it. This will make the AutoCheck feature show up, and you can turn it on to catch the emails that don't get pushed.

  • IPhone 3G: Automatic send/receive notification (wha happened to auto-check)

    Anybody know where the auto-check feature for emails is for the 3G? I don't get email alerts every XX minutes with the new 3G. I have to login to the mail app every time to check, which *****!

    I would also set the Push to Off, so that your phone won't be waiting for new messages all the time. Also set the fetch time to an hour or manual. Here is an except from tiphub:
    This is another battery saving tip, if don't need to get your emails immediately using Yahoo, Mobile Me or have setup your corporate Microsoft Exchange, then disable push by going to Settings > Fetch New Data > Set Push to Off. Emails will then be based on the Fetch time below on the same screen.
    Set the fetch time for the email to an hour or manually to optimize your battery life the most.
    There are other tips on there as well:

  • Auto-Check Not Checking

    I have my iPhone's setting to check for new e-mail every 15 minutes. However, it does not automatically check every 15 minutes. It winds up not checking until I go into the mail account to see if I have any new e-mail. I have both Yahoo and AOL accounts on it. How can I resolve this issue, so that it will check for my email?

    I forgot to include that I tried turning off the recent mode but that made it so I couldn't receive email at all, even using the manual check. It would connect and check for mail and the new email counter would go up to 25 and then it would finish without actually showing any of the new messages. Strange.
    The auto-check has worked a few times since I first posted about this - I'll update if I figure it out.
    Thanks!

  • Auto check in

    Hey Gang,
    Was curious if this was possible.
    We just went from a one person to a 3 person coding group.
    Never used the Check Out feature before, but it's pretty
    intuitive.
    I like the option to auto check out when you open the file.
    Is there a way to Auto check in when closing the file.
    I hope this isn't obvious? We checked around a bit before
    asking.
    Thanks
    -Dave

    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

  • Email "Auto-Check" isn't checking much

    Hello,
    The Auto-Check Email feature only works sporadically. I have it set for every 15 minutes, but it often won't check for a few hours. Details:
    * I'm using a .Mac email account.
    * EVERY time I fire up the phone's email app it checks for mail like clockwork. This works great.
    * My Auto-Check problem exists whether I'm using EDGE or WiFi; it doesn't seem to matter. Sometimes just sitting in my house next to my Airport Extreme with full WiFi-bars it will not check for hours... at other times it checks frequently.
    Any suggestions? I suspect this is just a software bug that needs some tweaking on Apple's part.
    Thanks,
    --Dave
    PS: Other than this, iPhone gets an A+ with a gold star. Fantastic device!
    MacBook Pro 2.33GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    You may want to try a couple of the articles below and see if they resolve your issue. Continue to test using Edge and WiFi if possible and post results. I would also advise if possible create a free Gmail, Yahoo, or other free account the iPhone offers and see if they make any difference in the Auto-check feature. Make sure to email yourself a couple emails and start a clock. Let it run for 20 min and see if any new email shows up automatically.

    Only perform the Turn iPhone off and Back on and Reset iPhone. Reset iPhone does not wipe any settings, Simply reboots the iPhone. Then test and see what your mail results are.

  • Apple Please Fix Auto-Check!

    Alright, I recently switched over from a blackberry and loved the push email service, I figured I could make do with the autocheck every 15 minutes, but low and behold I get my iPhone with update 1.1.1 and autocheck doesn't work! So I mosey on over to the Apple discussion forums and figures out nobodies is working! I can't believe you are letting such a significant feature that affects everyone go without fixes!
    Please Fix our Auto-Check, we are begging!

  • 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...
