Can receive calls, but can't make calls

I just bought an iPhone and successfully transferred my existing Cingular number/service and synced everything up with no problems, but I can't seem to make phone calls. I successfully made two calls, but I've tried at least 20 times with no success. Nothing at all happens. It says on the phone that it's calling, but I can't hear a thing. Yet, I can receive phone calls with no problem. What's the deal?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as now my old cell phone isn't working anymore and I need to be able to make calls!
Thanks!

Try powering down the phone and then turning it back on. Could be the towers are not picking it up properly, lots of times the connection is not picking up the phone correctly. worked for me for a couple different phones.

Problem: Cannot send mail unless Password is transmitted insecurely & Port is set to 587.. Can receive mail but can't send..

Problem: Cannot send mail unless Password is transmitted insecurely & Port is set to 587.. Can receive mail but can't send Code 501..
Need help with T-bird.. My OS is Win XP-64..Have been using Mozilla for about 10 years with little or no problems.. This happened when I upgraded to 3.17.. Spent hours on T-Bird diagnostics web site.. Called Comcast & talked to a net tech.. he ran some tests on his end & had me log into my Comcast e-mail account & all worked well,, so he concluded the problem was in T-Bird.. He had me change my port to 587 & disable connection security & authentication to none & I was able to send mail.. That was all he could do.. Comcast was working.. the problem is in T-Bird.. Can any one help with this problem.. I don't want to send mail with my password transmitted insecurely..
Thanks

It was not intended to be "snide". You said two separate things that at face value would be out of the ordinary.
I considered if it might be a typo for 31.7. Since 31.5 is the current formal release, I would have to thank you for volunteering to test a pre-release beta version. If it was truly 3.1.7 then it would appear that you have chosen, or have become stuck with a somewhat ancient version. In either case it's harder to reach out to you with any meaningful comments or advice. However I do watch various other sites and newsgroups and I don't see a clamour of distressed users, so it seems fair to suppose that this feature isn't actually broken in 31.7.
And you said XP 64. XP is obsolete and no longer supported and if there is a 64-bit version, then again you have set yourself apart from the mainstream.
I had a look at the comcast site and found some puzzling recommendations. Some users come here asking how to set up a secured connection in Thunderbird when it isn't offered by the server. Comcast are different, in that they mention the ports 143 and 587, and also 993 and 465. So far so good, in that security is actually on offer, but they also suggest that you enable SSL, regardless of which port is being used. It would be unusual and unconventional to offer TLS or SSL on ports 143 and 587. STARTTLS would be more credible on these ports.
Have you tried IMAP on 993 and SMTP on 465? SMTP on 587 with SSL, or TLS, is not impossible, but is improbable.

I can receive email but can't send on my ipad2

I can receive email but can't send on my ipad2. It says 'rejected by the server'.

I would that that your smtp settings are set up wrong
I would verify them 1 by 1 against the setup guide from the mail provider
if they were the same I would suspect that your phone company are blocking the ports
required by smtp in which case I would take contact to them and ask why

I can receive emails but can't send emails. Can someone help me? Thank you.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Can receive emails but can't send any

Can receive messages but can't send any. What setting am I missing?

I had this same problem with my zoho mail account. It started when I changed my email password on the computer....Long story short I have been going crazy for a few days. I could receive mail, but couldn't send anything from that account! (Fortunately I have two other accounts which are a different server - gmail.) I turned my iPad2 off then on again...I did a sync with iTunes...I deleted the account and then added it back...Still it would not send..Just receive!
I did finally get it fixed, but it took about an hour poking around and looking for help here.
There were several problems:
1. Somehow the server port numbers were incorrect. So when I added the account back in, I found that the "incoming server port" was not correct and fixed it. But I didn't see how to check the "outgoing server port." - somehow in the setting up process, that just wasn't exposed.
2. Eventually I found the "outgoing server port" here: - Go to Settings - General - Mail - Account. Then tap on the Account you need to fix. Check the information there to be sure it is correct.
THEN: tap on the white bar just below the word "Outgoing mail Server"
That takes you to "SMTP"
You will see a primary server, and "other SMTP servers"
Somehow I had 3 there that were the same account server name (zoho) ..all with the wrong port number!
But even after fixing each one, I still couldn't send mail. This led to problem number 3:
3. Apparently having 3 of the same account was a problem. After I deleted all three of the accounts, then tapped on "Add Server" and entered the information back in again. Bingo, I could send mail!!
I don't know why, but now my "Primary Server" says "Not configured - off"
And all the "Other" servers say "off" as well.
But it's working so I am going to leave it as it is.
I hope some of this is helpful.

Just got new MacBook air. Having trouble with email, can receive mail but cant send. Any suggestions?

If you still have the MobileMe account setting up the Mail App should be very simple BUT if you do not you WILL need the incoming and outgoing server setting and the easiest way is to follow the email cheat sheet by apple

You WILL need to contact your Email Service Provider for this

POP3 Can Receive Email, but Can't Respond

I have a Droid X and my email account is set up. I can receive emails, but I can't respond without receiving an error message. I've spoken with Motorola a number of times and they are not able to fix the problem. I've even tried setting up the account so that it is pushed through Gmail, but it doesn't working. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
I'm very dissappointed in this, having spent money on a phone that is not doing what it is made to do. Please advice.

I'm having the same issue... actually one of our clients is. Once the issue was reported I setup an email address on our server then tried adding that address to my DroidX. I had the same results as our customer reported; can receive messages fine but cannot send, reply or forward.
I have been searching the internet and thought I had the solution... on one of the droid forums a member said the solution was to use the gmail smtp server; smtp.gmail.com. This requires use of your gmail email address & password. Technically - it does allow you to send, etc BUT the recipient sees your gmail address as the sender - not the POP3 address you want them to see!
Does ANYONE have a solution that does not involve downloading another third-party app? I take that back - if you know of a good third-party solution, NOT Yahoo, gmail, etc. let me know. Really hoping we don't have to go to that extreme.
I will voice the same sentiments so many others have expressed: I HAD A BLACKBERRY BEFORE AND THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM!!!!!!
Thanks,
Fred T.
First - Blackberry have about a 6 year headstart on Android for mobile email..... and they do things differently than everyone else.
Second - Problems with not being able to send, is in the setup and settings....
We need more information before we can try to help.
Do you use Microsoft Exchange or a different email platform?
If you use Exchange, do you have ActiveSync setup for outside the network ie Activesync exposed through OWA? If so, one program that works quite well is Touchdown by NitroDesk. This program is very good/stable/works well with Exchange servers.
If using another email server program/platform, is there a setting somewhere to expose other ports for outside the network? A lot of email server programs (I don't know them all, but the ones that I have a little knowledge on, do not allow connections to ports 110 and 25 outside of the LAN).
Its just a matter of figuring out which settings work.
