Can't get mail to upload on iphone

My iphone gets stuck in the 'connecting' mode when trying to upload my mail messages.  This is a new problem.  Restarting phone 'fixes' it temporarily. 

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

  • 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.

    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...

  • HT4436 Since installing Ios7 280 music tunes out of a total of 360 will now only play when I'm within range of WiFi. How can I get them back on my Iphone 4s and scrap this stupid icloud that I did not want or ask for in the first place.

    Since installing Ios7   280 music tunes out of a total of 360 will now only play when I'm within range of WiFi. The remainder now appear with the stupid Icloud logo beside them. How can I get them back on my Iphone 4s and scrap this stupid icloud that I did not want or ask for in the first place. Why can't rotten apple ask if you want the dam icloud rather than just stealing everything without permission and then you can only have access to it through wifi.

    Wow, just posting and it seems that there is a solution that is working for me...
    What I've did is I turned off iTunes Match on my iPhone, then turned in on again. Now in my iTunes library on my mac I can get the duplicates to be matched or uploaded to iCloud with a right-click, add to iCloud. iTunes Match starts to check the songs and everything is done correctly. Pretty nice!

  • HT1430 Can not get mail , it sayes that the user name or password is incorret, it the right one

    Can not get mail , it sayes that the user name or password is incorret, it the right one

    You need to contact the email provider and reset your information. All your iPhone does is send the information to the provider and they are stating your username or password are incorrect. If you contact the provider they can help you reset it so it will work with your phone

  • 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!

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I updated my 3gs to 6.1.3 now I can't get mail the phone constantly restarts itself and I can't get it to Restore thanks Apple what can I do?

    I updated my 3gs to 6.1.3 now I can't get mail the phone constantly restarts itself and I can't get it to Restore thanks Apple what can I do?

    Im having the same problem, I updated my Iphone 4S to 6.1.3, shortly after that my phone had no audio. It was working fine one minute and then stopped. Was listening to music when sound gave out on me. It wont ring, phone just vibrates even after turning off vibration option. I've tried all the options listed and nothing. My phone has never been jailbroken either. If I connect the earphones is works perfectly. On one of my last calls received, phone's ringtone was heard for about 2 seconds before muting and just vibrating. Ringtone sounded perfect, speakers did not sound damaged. 
    What else could be done? I've read several post regarding this and it seems like Apple has no solution to this yet. Very dissappointed.

    Follow the steps in this article to restore from iTunes back up:

    Since you say you cant see the back up in iTunes you should be able to see it when following the last step where it says for iTunes 10.7 or earlier. Dont worry as this step also works for iTunes 11.
