Calendar won't sync & can't get mail
When I connect with the computer to sync calendars it used to work. Now it isn't syncing.
I haven't been able to receive mail. The wheel at the bottom spins and says "connecting," but nothing happens.
The troubles began after the switch to mobile me. If anyone has any advice, I would appreciate it! Thanks.
Try removing all the extra applications from the phone. The only ones you want to have are the default apps on the home page. I tried everything, and this is the only thing that worked.

New Iphone 4s won't sync, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'???
New Iphone 4s won't sync off my computer, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'. Got 1/3 of old apps, and contacts, but a 2/3 of my old apps are on the computer.... not real computer savvy, any suggestions?
no no a hard reset is just something you do to the phone, you wont lose any data or anything else its litterally like starting your phone on a fresh slate running wise but you wont lose anything at all, all your apps settings etc will still be right as you left it. think of it as a step above turning it off and on again

Can't get mail or update calendar.
In settings, the mail, contacts, calendar tab is frozen. Can't get mail or update calendar. Have read that this may be an I-Cloud issue. Have tried holding down the lock button and home button together but no luck. I am very hesitant about having to do a total reset. Any ideas of what the best solution is?

hello, all of a sudden without apparent reason I can't get "MAIL" to function. It starts up but I get the color wheel turning like crazy and never ends. I've tried restarting and I still can't get it to work. PLEASE HEEELP!?
In the Desktop Manager > Sync > Configuration, make sure the calendar options are set to override Outlook.
Set it also to notify you of the changes, so you will have to approve any changes.

Calendar won't sync from Outlook to iphone
Any idea why my Outlook calendar won't sync using iCloud? It had been working fine and stopped syncing in the last week. Thanks!
without specifics that is the best I can do

After installing the 64 bit version of itunes my iphone still won't sync. I get the explantation that I mobile driver application did not download and i need to remove and reinstall itunes (which I have done numberous times). Any help?
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now? -
Can't get Mail to work - I get the spinning wheel and Mail freezes. I have to Force Quit Mail . How do I fix this problem?
Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.
That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it... -

Can't Get Mail When in a Call on iOS 5!?
Hello all,
I recently upgraded my AT&T iPhone 4 to iOS 5. However, I did a clean upgrade and did not restore any of my settings. I have added all of my e-mail accounts. Two of which are Gmail accounts and a third which is a Microsoft Exchange account. Also note that the Gmail accounts were added as exchange as well. All 3 accounts are set to push.
Everything is running great - however, ever since the upgrade, if I am in a call (connected over 3G) and enter the Mail app, I get one error for each mailbox saying "Can't Get Mail: The connection to the server has failed." Curiously, if I turn on my WiFi while on the call still, the e-mail accounts sync. Even more baffling, is the fact that Safari can connect to the internet just fine, while in a call over 3G. But my mailboxes refuse to sync!
This is driving me crazy - since I have deleted and re-added two of the accounts now... I just don't know what else could be wrong. The phone is GSM, so it goes without saying that it should be fine, but more importantly, this problem was not at all present in 4.3.5.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!SOLUTION @ LAST. Decided to keep the community updated, in case someone else runs into this problem!
After several attempts to restore the device, and even start from scratch over the past day, and still having the same issue, I resorted to Recovery Mode.
Upon placing the device in Recovery Mode, and connecting to iTunes, I was prompted to re-download the new iOS 5 IPSW. After the download completed, iTunes restored the device from an earlier backup (one that was made while the issues were still happening).
After this was completed, and the device had completely synchronized, I again tested the Exchange account's ability to sync over 3G while in a call... IT NOW WORKS!
So, this leads me to believe that something was corrupt in the original iOS 5 IPSW that was downloaded on the new firmware's launch day. Maybe due to overloaded servers...
Also, I have now found that iCloud works much more seamlessly, along with WiFi sync, which now completes a full sync in a matter of seconds, as opposed to minutes.
Hope this info can be of use to those that are having this or other problems relating to iOS 5! -
Help me fix my email when i get the message, server has failed , can not get mail
How do I fix my email when I keep getting the message, can not get mail, server connection has failed? In very plain basic english or even on youtube?
Hey helpsusanplease,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with mail on your iPhone. The following article may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899
Try these basic troubleshooting steps first
1. Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage (try any webpage). If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you are unable to load a webpage, follow these troubleshooting steps.
- Try to use an alternate Internet connection if available:
1. Try a different Wi-Fi connection
2. If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fiand turn off Wi-Fi.
3. If the affected email account is provided by your Internet provider, see if your issue is resolved while connected to your home Wi-Fi network.*
2. Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
3. Restart your iOS device.
4. Delete the affected email account from your device.
- Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
- Choose the affected email account, then tap Delete Account.
- Add your account again.
* If you are only able to use your email account while connected to your home network, this may be a limitation put in place by your email service provider. For further support, please contact your email service provider directly.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
Has any one experienced not being able to send mail and only receiving some? I get the message " can not get mail. No connection to the server! " Yet I get some mail but can not send out any. My iPad is only 1 month old! It worked perfectly for about 10 days.
Thx
AgnesHey agnesfromcopenhagen k,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with Mail on your iPad. The following resource provides some troubleshooting steps. What kind of account are you using? Some internet providers require that you be connected to your home Wi-Fi (or for work accounts, inside your corporate Wi-Fi/firewall). Also, some email accounts require two-step authentication. For more information, see this resource:

Contacts and Calendar won't sync with Outlook
It seems that ever since the last upgrade to iTunes (8.1.1) my contacts and calendar won't sync.
I've tried all the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692 up to and including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes but, nothing has worked.
Any help would be appreciated.The contacts and calendar do sync into another user account but _only some of the records_.
ZoneAlarm. And there is no difference whether it is running or not.
One odd thing:
In order to try to find which record(s) might be causing the problem I sorted my calendar on the "Date Created" field hoping to be able to go back in history and see exactly when things went wrong. Much to my surprise I found that the 13 most recent records did not sync to my iPhone. Then the next 2 did. Then the next 3 did not. Then 1 did. etc. -
I updated my iPhone 5c to iOS8 and lost all my calendar events. How can I get them back?
I updated my IPhone 5C to iOS8 and lost all my calendar events. How can I get them back? I had it saved to the cloud but then changed it because I did not want to save everything to the cloud. I changed it back and still don't have any events.
Are they still listed on your device when you go to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Numbers? If so, they should still be in iCloud but you may need to contact support to find out why the Numbers app isn't able to access them: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

Can't get Mail working properly
I just got my new MacPro this week, and it's really great except for I can't get Mail working right. I've set up my accounts and a few emails come through, though not many, and because it's been a week since I've been online, there should be many more than that. Also, I can't send any emails at all, no matter what I do. They will eventually go into my Sent box, but I've been sending them to myself to see if it's working, and they never come through. I spent an hour on the phone yesterday with the tech support for my ISP, and they told me that I'd have to talk to the Apple techs because they didn't have current info for *Mail 3.1*, the version I have, that the latest they had was for 2.something. So I called the Apple tech support and spent 2 hours on the phone with them, and they weren't able to help me get it going correctly either. It keeps giving me error messages such as Connection Failed, or Unable to Receive Mail, saying "there may be a problem with the mail server or network" and that "the connection to the server on ... port has timed out." I'm on DSL and am always online, so I know it's not the internet connection that's the problem. Can anybody give me some advice on what I should try? Any help will be gratefully appreciated!
Is your ISP Verizon, Demon, or Glocalnet, then it might be Apples biggest Leopard Bug in conjunction with these ISP:s POP-servers.
The one that randomly changes the settings in "advanced" from "password" to "APOP".
The visual result of this bug is that you will get a popup-box where Mail asks you to enter your password. (Which is useless entering, since the preference settings are changed.)
My advice counts only when you are supposed to use "password" as the correct setting in "Advanced" and in conjunction with some ISP:s.
