Can't get email to start on new iphone 4s

Can't get email to start on new iphone 4s - stuck on the 'Welcome to Mail' screen, when I click on Google and enter my account details, then Next, it tells me 'This Gmail account has already been added to your iPhone.' Similarly for icloud. But that's all it lets me do. Help please

Instead I went to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tapped the Gmail account and found that the Mail button was switched off. Duh.
Thanks for your help randers4

    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't get Logic to start in new OS

    I haven't used my Logic Studio since I upgraded to Lion OS and now I can't get it to work. If I look for updates using Apple's website it can't find my serial number... Any ideas? Also when I run the ap it states "You can't use this version of the application Logic Pro.app with this version of Mac OS X. You have logic pro.app 9.0.0. I can't believe I've paid 500$ for a program that won't open up in the new OS system

    Hi all, I'm new to the forum
    Have installed the above mentioned server running the x86 platform with Solaris 10 1/08 with broadcom ethernet adaptor cards.
    My network connections are giving issues. bge0 and bge1both show physical activity and these are my configs
    # ifconfig -a
    lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
    bge0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2

    ether 0:11:25:22:1f:27
    My default router also exists
    # vi /etc/defaultrouter
    192.168.1.254
    ~
    The hosts file
    # vi /etc/hosts
    ::1          localhost
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    192.168.1.170 hostname1      loghost
    10.0.0.1      hostname1
    ~
    ~
    And the device files
    # vi /etc/hostname.bge0
    hostname1
    ~
    ~
    # vi /etc/hostname.bge1
    hostname2
    ~
    ~
    All these including restart procedures aren't working.
    I dont seem to be able to get to other devices on the network yet the local TCP/IP stack behaves just OK. I can ping all the interfaces but cannot ping any device on the network.
    During install too, I attempted to acquire a dhcp address via the network from a dhcp server that serves IPs to our network but failed thus proceeded to static addressing.
    Any advice please?

  • How can i get my contacts on my new iphone

    i had a 3g that died today, i did sync it just the other day, how can i get my mobile numbers on my new iphone

    If you synced it with the computer it should have created a backup .
    Try Connecting your new phone to the computer -Right clicking on the Phones name under devices -Click restore from backup - and choose the date and time when you created that backup.
    Keep in mind any information on your phone currently before you do that will be lost, since it is putting the other phones information on the new device.
    alternatively If you Synced your contacts to windows address book, Microsoft outlook 2003/07/10, or address book on a mac - and you could just sync contacts with one of those programs.

  • Can't get mail to work on new iphone

    i have two accounts,yahoo and comcast, neither is working on my new iphone 5.  the phone accepted the setting for the comcast account, but still no mail.  the yahoo account keeps asking me for the password, despite me entering it the mail settings various times.  it then tells me the yahoo server is unavailable, try later.  has been happening for quite some time.

    Did you ever get this to work?  Did you have to delete your comcast account and setup new account?  My Iphone 5 is doing the same thing - asking for password and then never connects to server - times out 

  • Can't Get Push to Work on New iPhone

    I just replaced by Gen1 iPhone with a 3GS. Everything went easy as can be, except for one thing - none of the apps that had Push Notifications enabled and working on my old iPhone are working on my new iPhone. In general prefs I have Push enabled globally and individually for each app, and for those apps that have their own prefs, I enabled it there.
    Some examples: Loopt, AP News, Echofon, etc.
    Is there something I need to do on my old phone to "unregister" it or something? I already blanked it, unfortunately. Please let me know if anyone knows anything. Thanks!

    i cannot answer to loopt or echofon (i do not use them) but apnews does no push many updates at all (sometimes days go by without an update).
    as a test download the ebay app (free) enable push notifications and then watch an item that is going to end soon (and wait for the notification)

  • Can't get Sim Card out of new iPhone 6; Can't activate phone...

    I'm unable to activate my new iPhone 6 because I can't remove the Sim Card despite several minutes of trying. First major fail… Can anyone offer some additional tips. It didn't come with a pin for this purpose. I'm using a paper clip.

    You can visit an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store and ask them to do that for you. Your device is still under warranty and they'll be happy to help you.

  • HT3228 Can't get email accounts to push new emails through

    I Have iPhone 5 and I'm having trouble receiving emails. It won't allow me to select push I need to select fetch which means I'm only receiving emails if I open up my mail application.
    i Have a hotmail account which can be selected to push and I receive them straight away.
    Anyone else having the same problem?
    cheers, crookie

    What kind of account? IMAP and POP accounts do not support Push. Gmail does not support push (unless set up as an Exchange account).

  • How can I get windows XP to recognize new iPhone 4s?

    I just got a replacement iPhone 4s for a broken iPhone 4 but cannot get my pc to recognize my new iPhone

    Hi
    Try
    Right click My Compute / Select - Manage / Select - Services and Applications / Double Click - Services.
    You should see in this list your mobile device which maybe name "Apple Mobile Device" or "iPhone Mobile Device".
    See what it says in "Status" column. If there is nothing in it, right click on it and click "Restart"
    Open iTunes and it should be recognised
    If the status shows as "Started" come back and we'll try something else
    Thanks
