Can't add any Gmail account to Palm Pre anymore

I recently removed my Gmail account in an attempt to resolve my inability to send outgoing email (an issue that came out of nowhere).
Now, I can't reinstall any Gmail account. The username and password are correct and I have enabled IMAP. When I attempt to add the new account by signing in for the first time, it hangs for 30 seconds or so and then gives me the error message "Unable to connect to the mail server. Please try again later."
What is causing this?

using this link solved the problem, for some reason.

  • Can't add ANY email accounts to iPhone

    I can't add any email accounts to my iPhone's mail application. (it used to work just fine) I have tried to enter my account information using my yahoo, gmail, and exchange and none work. I enter my account information and after it verifies it takes me to "account" which is only a blank screen. I have tried entering account information both directly on the mail app and under settings.
    Anyone having a similar problem? anyone have any ideas of how to fix or what's wrong?

    preciosa1435,
    Have you tried Resetting All Settings? To do so, navigate to Settings > General > Reset.
    If that doesn't work, restoring the iPhone and setting it up as a new phone (instead of restoring from backup) should ultimately resolve the issue.

  • I can't add any email account to iphone

    I used to have yahoo and gmail, suddenly, both disappeared from my mail, and when I try to add either directly from the mail or going to settings to add account, it will go blank and nothing happened. And yes, I've restored my iphone but to no avail. Please help me or I will throw my phone out the window. By the way, this is not the 3G, it's the old one. and

    Problem is, in the "other", there doesn't appear an option like I used to have before this problem appeared that allows me to choose IMAP or POP, it doesn't have ADVANCED option. I've tried both Gmail and Yahoo, but it's just not working. I think I'm just gonna take it to Apple. Thanks for the help anyway :-/

  • I can't add my gmail calendar account

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to add my gmail account, but when I try to add the amail, calendar and notes, the Iphone 4s doesn't work properly, it hangs. So, If I try to add firstly the emails the iphone do it well, but when I try to add ical and notes, it hangs too. What's wrong???

    If you have it set up on, for example, Outlook on a PC or Mail on a Mac , then you can use the Info tab to sync the account's settings to the iPad. Otherwise for directly entering them on the iPad there are instructions for Gmail here or here (if you want to be able to sync google contacts and calendar).

  • Can't add any new email account - Bug with Ios 6.1.3?

    For unknown reason, I can't add any new email account, I get stuck with when I have entrered my email address and password. In fact, the system says " checking" but nothing is happening. Do you have any idea?
    Somebody proposed me to reset Safari which I did with same result.
    I have two Iphone and 1 Ipad and I have exactly the same problem on all of them.

    I finally found the reason, it was linked with my email suffix which was a shorten version. When I put the long one, my email address has been recognized. The strange things is the fact, I have set up earlier the same account in pop instead of imap without any issue. I need to fight with the server name too as my standard incoming server was not recogized on imap (no reason as it works with other system). However, I found my way and it works.
    Thank you for your help. Maybe my demand will help somebody else.

  • Can not add any accounts to Mail, Calendar, etc.

    This is not an additional account issue.
    I can not add even 1 account.
    This is Windows 8 Enterprise.
    I opened Mail App.
    I logged in with MS account.
    I went to settings, Accounts.
    I clicked on "Add an account"
    The I get, "You've added all the accounts available for this app" , but I have not added any accounts at all.
    Any advice?
    I am trying to add ActiveSync to Exchange in the Mail app, since full Outlook 2013 is almost unusable on a 10" tablet.

    Did you use any proxy during the internal network? Please try to use other network to add the account in Windows Mail App.

  • Can't set up gmail account in 10.7.5 Apple Mail

    Mail on my daughter's MB deals with her Yahoo account splendidly. But when I tried to add her gmail account, it balked. I accessed gmail via the web and turned on IMAP and save changes, then I added the account. The response was that Mail couldn't access gmail because either the username or password was wrong. So I tried the same whole routine, except this time setting it up as a POP account. Same lack of joy. I shut down and restarted. I repaired permissions. I even found a seemingly smart person on another thread who asked the other person with a similar problem to do a Lookup in Network Utility. So I did, and what I got from that effort (below) looks to me like the computer can find gmail without any difficulty.
    So I'm lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Lookup has started…

    Is your daughter using 2-step Verification on her gmail account? If yes, then you need to create app-specific password to be able to use mail application. More info and how to on Google documentation page.

  • Can I add my gmail calendar to my I pad?

    I just received an I pad mini and I want to sync my gmail calendar to my I pad mini. Can i do this and if so how. Same with my gmail contacts that are on my samsung phone, I want to ge them on my i pad mini. Thanks for any help.

    Yes.  Add your gmail account with Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars.  You will have options for "Calendars" and "Contacts".  If you have more than one set of calendars/contacts enabled, you will also be able to select where new ones go (important).
    To select which calendars show, Click "Calendars" in the Calendar app.
    To select which contacts show, Click "Groups" in the Groups app. 

  • How do I add a gmail account as a second email account?

    I am trying to add a gmail account as a second account to my .me account on my icloud.  I followed prompts but get an error message that I can't connect to the server.  I have deleted the account to start from scratch.  Any help is greatly appreciated :-)  Thank you!

    Open Mail and in the Accounts preference pane click on the "+" button at the bottom.  Add your Gmail account.  You'll need to know server information, etc. but you can add it.  Then you can use Mail as your email client for Gmail:

  • Can I use a gmail account to set up my child's IPhone?

    Can I use a gmail account to set up my child's iphone? He already has a gmail account I don't want to set up an icloud email address. My husband and I could use our gmail addresses.

    You can use any email address that you like as an Apple ID - it doesn't have to be an icloud one.
    My only suggestion would be to use an address that you know you will have access to for a long while - like the gmail one - so you don't have to worry about changing the Apple ID in the future.

    Then select "Add a Mail Account and click create
    Then go to google for the settings you need:
    First here for the settings online at gmail http://tinyurl.com/du3fu

  • Mavericks mail will not allow me to add a gmail account

    Help!
    I am using running OSX Mavericks, including the new version of Mail 7.0 (1822). I cannot add a GMail account. Going through Mail: Preferences: Accounts, I give the information, but then get told:
    There was a problem setting up the account.
    Unable to verify account name or password.
    If I click ok (the only option), Mail quits, so I cannot use the Connection Doctor to see what else is happening.
    All my other programs that access the internet work, and I can access google calendar, for example, via BusyCal.
    There must be something simple happening.... By the way, Mavericks Mail works perfectly on my machine at work!
    Suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!
    Roger

    I had the same issue...I called apple support and they gave me the following instructions. Seems to be working perfectly fine.
    - Go to Apple Mail
    - Hit on Preferences, go to Accounts and hit the "+" button
    - Select "Add other mail account", and hit continue
    - Enter your Full Name, email address, and password (DO NOT HIT CREATE)
    - Push down the option key, and while holding down the option key hit "NEXT"
    - It will route you to the Incoming Mail Server Info window, here you will type in the Mail Server as: imap.gmail.com. Again type in your user name (complete email) and password. And again, hold down the option key, and while holding down the option key hit "NEXT".
    - Then it wil route you to the Outgoing Mail Server. Type in the Outgoing Mail Server as: smtp.gmail.com, and again your email and password.
    -Hit Create
    Once you see the email account on your Apple Mail sidebar, go to compose a new message and send yourself an email to the new email account from your new email account
    This worked for me and synced all my folders. Hope it works for you as well.
