Can't connect to gmail & yahoo (calender)

hmm, Since installing mountain lion, my connection with Gmail calender got lost. Yahoo calender also won't work. Gmail calender also dissapeared from ICloud.
Any idea?

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If nothing above helped, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

I frequently receive a notice from Mail that it "can't connect" to my yahoo mail account, despite the fact that I can receive mail from that account. The banner appears with my coded password highlighted and asks me to choose 'cancel' or 'ok'.

I frequently receive a notice from Mail that it 'can't connect' to my Yahoo account despite the fact that I am able to receive mail from that account. It appears with the name of my Yahoo account, my password (coded), and the choice to 'cancel' or 'ok'. If I click either, the banner goes away but comes back soon. I can open Mail and see that all accounts are online. I get the banner SEVERAL time during a session - very annoying!
I have several accounts, but this only happens with Yahoo and sometimes Hotmail. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this Mail issue?
Thanks.

I have 5 IMAP and 1 POP (Hotmail).
The Yahoo is IMAP.

Can't connect to GMail to Sync

When my iPad is connected to iTunes, I'm trying to Sync Contacts with Google Contacts. This requires me to logon to Google. When I do so, iTunes tells me "the Google ID or password was incorrect". I know this is not true - I can easily logon to gMail on the same computer. Why can't iTunes connect to Google/gMail?
To get around this obstacle, I tried syncing Contacts with Windows Address Book. This process seems to work, but then I can't find the Contacts anywhere on the iPad, not in the App called "Contacts" nor in the contacts in Mail. Where are they?
All help appreciated.

This could be caused by a firewall blocking PC Companion from connecting to the internet. If you have a firewall installed, make sure it's set to allow PC Companion.
If your internet connection goes through a proxy you may also have to enter your proxy in PC Companion. Click PC Companion settings at the top right and then go to proxy settings.
If you use MS Outlook with MS Exchange you could also synchronize directly with MS Exchange from the phone. Go to Settings -> Accounts and sync in the phone and add a new account with your settings (you get these from your IT-department).
You could also try the 3:rd party application MyPhoneExplorer from www.fjsoft.at.

Can not connect with Gmail.

I can not connect my mail.app with gmail.
smtp connection is fine.
but i can't connect pop.
I look through discussions and it looks randomaly happening.
however, can anyone help me out?
I'm keep getting this message "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "Gmail" or try again.
The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "pop.gmail.com" on port 995 timed out."
Thanks.
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) Powerbook G3

You can't connect at all, or you have been able to connect and it randomly drops??
I've been using Mail to check my Gmail accounts for a while now, and sometimes it will be delayed, but I've never had a long term probelm with it.

Mail says that it can't connect to my Yahoo! Mail account

This has happened quite frequently to me recently: my Mail account on my Mac will randomnly say that it "Can't connect to the account Yahoo!" which is my primary email account. It will then have me enter my password to my Yahoo! Mail account. This is rather annoying, and I was wondering how I can get this to stop.

I experience the same issue. I am in contact with apple support who have as yet not been able to resolve the problem. To receive mail on my mac I first have to log into yahoo.com via a browser and then I can return to apple mail where mail sending and receiving works for a few minutes. After some time the connection between apple mail and yahoo.com breaks (even though I remain logged into yahoo.com) and I can no longer send and receive mail from my mac. I then have to log out and back in again to yahoo.com for the mail to again work in apple mail. This have been an issue since late June.

I can't access my gmail from my iPhone or mac? It says I can't connect to gmail.

When I open to mail, a pop up says: "mail cannot connect to gmail acct."

Hello susansmaider,
It sounds like neither of your 2 devices can connect to your Gmail account. I would start with trying the steps in the following article for your iPhone:
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
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:
Try a different Wi-Fi connection
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
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.*
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Restart your iOS device.
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.
And this article for your Mac:

Can't connect to gmail

my ipad has quit connecting to gmail - any advice? It seemed to stop doing this without any changes having been made to the ipad or the gmail account. I have tried deleting the account and setting it up again.

Try to restore your iPod from a previous backup via iTunes if you have any.
Or try changing the password for your gmail account and then try re-add the account once more.

I can't connect to my Yahoo calendar, getting error, the server responded with an error, the request for account Yahoo failed, the server responded with 502 to operation, caldavaccountrefreshqueable operation

I was connected to my Yahoo mail using ical but kept getting the error message. I deleted my Yahoo profile from ical and then added it again. Now all my entries in my Calendar are gone and I am still getting the error message.

I am tired of how Yahoo has gotten worse and worse. It is the ONLY account I get problems with DAILY (even after removing and re-adding). AOL will act up once in a while not taking a saved password but accepting it when OK is clicked.... But Yahoo is always responding with such errors.... Today's calendar error is:
The request (CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation) for account “Yahoo” failed.

How can i connect my gmail account to the browser so that it would show in the gmail tab the status of new incoming mail

i established a tab for my gmail account in the toolbar, can this tab indicate the status of new incoming gmail emails?

The ATV does not have a browser and therefore cannot connect to any Wi-Fi network that requires logging in via a web browser.
Posting your email to a public, world-wide forums is not smart.

Suddenly can't connect to gmail SMTP for outbound mail

I have both a MacBook Air and an IMac. Recently, I lost the ability on both machines to send outbound mail. With Apple Care help on my supported machine (the MacBook Air,) we rebuilt my gmail mail account on that machine and was able to reconnect and send outbound mail. (receiving mail was never a problem)
However, going through all of the same steps on the IMac, it keeps saying :"Gmail (offline) next to Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) on the account information screen. When I run Connection Doctor, I have a red light next to Gmail SMTP with the message "Trying to log into this SMTP account failed. Verify that the username and password are correct."
Well, the username and password are correct. I just changed them, and can access Gmail from all of my other devices...MacBook Air, iPhone, IPad.
What is really odd it that is was working until about 3 weeks ago.
Any suggestions/ideas? I'm not particularly technical...just find this very frustrating and don't know where to turn.

No bad form to worry about, just the reduced attention to your problem that a solved designation causes.
If I remove my gmail account, I'll be able to get all the emails back when I create my new one - because it's imap?
Yes, but check 2 things,
1. That it is setup as Imap (POP is possible but is not the default) and 2 that you have not created any local folders that house mail from the Imap account, if you did then you must export them before removing the account.
What do you mean by verify both passwords? You mean imap and smtp?
I assume I should be using the application specific password in my mail settings?
Thanks,
Bob
Imap and SMTP should be the same, but check.

I can't connect to gmail on iPad mini

Every time I try to connect to my gmail (google) account I get the following message.
"Could not connect using SSL. Would you like to try setting up the account without SSL?"
Our iPad mini is running ios 7.0.4. I've deleted the gmail account from the iPad and tried to reconnect but to no avail. I've tried other gmail accounts within our house but no luck. Additionally we do not have 2-step verfication set on our google accounts.

You ned to be running at least iOS 6 on your iPad to be able to continue using Skype. If you can't updating iOS on your iPad to version 6 or later you can't use Skype any longer. See this blog article for details as to why we are retiring older Skype versions: http://blogs.skype.com/2014/07/16/update-skype-now-to-improve-your-experience/

Can't connect to gmail smtp server but receiving fine

I have been using gmail with my mac osx mail fine for several years with no hiccups. Recently, I had problems with gmail and my ipad but with an app, it's now working fine.
Today, when sending an email from my imac, I had the old error prompt show up asking for my password. Had a bad feeling about this. I entered it. Then again. Wouldn't take it.
Now it's telling me that my smtp server is offline. It works fine with webmail, so the gmail isn't the problem. I'm able to receive mail just fine and also send mail with other accounts.
I have tried rebullding my mail by letting it build a new index file and that didn't help. I read some advice about deleting the container folder. I don't have that folder on my imac. Can't locate it.
Can anyone please help? I hate using webmail and want to go back to using mac osx mail.
imac / 2.66 / 8gb RAM / 10.8.3
Thanks,
Bob
