Cannot get emails after changing to pop account

Telstra, my internet provider, required me to change my email settings to a pop account. I had no choice in this matter.
I am told that this will gradually happen to all users over the next 12 months....!
BUT..... now  my ipad will not receive or send emails! 
I copied over new settings from laptop to ipad as advised.  This did not work. 
I then re--synced ipad to laptop....this did not work. I have since found 'online' that there is a problem with ipads
and 'pop' accounts
Further contact with Telstra informed me that  they are not responsible for other devices and
I will have to pay to get this problem  fixed.  This is a $99 set rate!
Can anyone help me to reconfigure my ipad to receive and send emails?

Did you already try the Mail assistant for iPad?
On thing to keep in mind:
iOS: 'Mailbox Locked', account is in use on another device, or prompt to re-enter POP3 password
What to ask if you're having issues sending, receiving, or configuring Mail
iOS: Unable to send or receive Mail
I have no problems using my POP Mail account on my iPad.
If you have copied the settings from your computer, make sure that all passwords have been added again by you, they might have been removed for security reasons during copy process.
I started from the scratch by adding a new account, to be sure all settings were correct.
Some accounts don't work using SSL, in that case set it up without using SSL

    You can go to the Apple online store and purcahse a copy of Mountain Lion.  This will give you a redemption code, which you can use to download Mountain Lion from the App Store.  Unfortuantely, I'm not aware of any other way to legally purchase it.  I have never seen Apple release Muontain Lion on DVD.
    In terms of Apple Service, they just need the serial number of the machine to check the purcahse date.  It is usually correct, to within a few weeks.  A quick Google search should give you the correct number to dial.
    I hope this helps.

    I would delete the account and try to re-enter it. Also, you have to let your firm's IT department know that you want to sync work email on your personal devices before they actually work.

  • Suddenly - cannot get emails for 1 of my accounts?

    This morning, one of my three email accounts won't download (via pop) from the ISP - the other two are perfectly fine.
    via Safari, I can see the test emails sitting on the pop server waiting to be got.
    Connection doctor says 'connection and login to server succeeded' which I think implies password etc all good.
    The mail account title in LH panel, MAILBOXES->Inbox is greyed.
    I'm pretty sure the issue is somewhere between my mouse and my chair but I need specifics!
    TIA.

    It's probably actually the time on the Apple server when you made the post... I figured it was your local time, but apparently not!
    Why the account is 'offline' - hang on - just chose Mailbox->Take All Accounts Offline and voila - all now good!
    Probably just had a brief glitch, brief enough that the iPhone didn't notice but Mail took the account offline. Glad it's working again now!

  • Cannot Setup email after changing BBID

    Hi All,
    As earlier said, BB Id answer and hint answer too forgotten. And later, New BB Id was created its and successfully allowing me to app world etc.
    Now problem is EMAIL Setup not allowing me to log in to set up email account. Please help.
    Subject Title edited to reflect new topic.

    Earlier said?
    Please answer this:  On your Manage Connections screen, click on the Services Status.
    What is the status of the BlackBerry Internet Service?
    Then for your email setup: 
    Please try this FIRST, using your BlackBerry browser...
    1)
    • Go to mobile.blackberry.com OR to www.blackberry.com/integrate
    • Scroll down to Communication and then to Email.
    • Choose the appropriate email set up options.
    If that works and completes your email setup/editing, good.
    If not, follow these additional instructions:
    2) Register HRT: (OS5) Home Screen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > Scroll to any line entry and > press the Menu key > and then click Register Now. If you have an OS 6 or OS 7 device, Look at Options > Device > Advanced > Host Routing Table, etc.
    3) Resend Service Books: Article ID: KB02830 How to send the service books for a BlackBerry Internet Service account. http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02830
    4) Then, with the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
    5) Now, return to the 1) mobile.blackberry.com email setup as mentioned above and follow that.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you!

    Hi tania184,
    Have you contacted your email provider to make sure there are no problems on their end? If they say their email servers are working properly, check the outgoing and incoming mail servers entries on your iPhone to make sure both are entered correctly. Enter the outgoing mail server even if the account setup indicates that is optional.

  • HT3228 How do I reestablish hotmail delivery to my iPhone and iPad after I have been locked out?  I have reestablished service to my PC, but cannot get email on other devices, even after updating to new passwords.

    How do I reestablish hotmail delivery to my iPhone and iPad after I have been locked out?  I have reestablished service to my PC, but cannot get email on other devices, even after updating to new passwords.

    Sometimes it is fruitless to try to "fix" a broken account on an iOS device. I would delete the account on both devices and then configure the account again from scratch.

  • HT1277 why i cannot set up my exchange account into my iphone 4s.  everything that needs to input has been provided right, but error says cannot get email not connected to the srver.where seems to be the problem?pls help.btw,i have an outlook for macbook

    please help me find out the solution to the problem.
    My iphone 4S was not able to fetch mails from the server ( outgoing and incoming)
    I was trying to configure my exchange account and follow all the procedures correctly but am having trouble in sending and receiving mails as the error says " cant get mails cannot connect to the server?  where seems to be the problem?
    Have read from the support services that if you using a Pop3 account into another device which I did ( my email was configured via outlook for mac in my macbook) there might be a lock out problem and cannot get emails on the second device which is my iphone?  ( I want to set up my exchange account to my iphone so wherever and whenever i go i cant still access to my email easily. Please help.

    No one seems to be hearing what Big Q is saying.
    He can pair his iPhone to his Macbook, but cannot CONNECT. He's NOT asking for alternative solutions, like Wi Fi.
    I am able to both pair and connect my one one Macbook to my other one, but I can only pair but not connect my iPhone or iPad to either Macbook. So I have the same problem. But I can pair and connect my Macbooks to other Bluetooth devices, like my ancient Nokia cellfone, or my Bluetooth HP printer.
    It's irrelavent that I can instead use a direct USB cable or Wi Fi between my Macbooks and my iPhone/iPad - why can't I use Bluetooth? If Apple does not allow Bluetooth between it's Macbooks and other Mac devices, then why have Bluetooth at all? Does my iPhone have Bluetooth only so that I can pair and connect to my my non Apple mobile handsfree car kit, or communicate easily with the dreaded Apple enemy Samsung, or what?
    Make no mistake , I am a diehard Apple fan, but this Bluetooth non compatibility issue appears shortsighted and seemingly pointless. Why does Apple not just say why they created the non compatibility, or have a message on the Bluetooth setup programme which simply and clearly says "don't bother wasting hours of your time trying to pair and connect your iPhone to your Macbook, because we don't allow that anymore, reason being that............"?
    As a first time user of this Forum I am surprised at the intolerant and highhanded tone of some of the replies  to what is a legitimate question, that is obviously plagueing many, many other Apple users.

    Start by working throudh the Troubleshooting iOS and WiFi knowledge base article and see if that helps the situation.  When you get to shutting down the router, be sure to disconnect power as shutdown on some is really just standby mode.

  • Cannot send email with any of my accounts on Mail 5.2

    I have a Mac Book Pro
    Mac Os X 10.7.4
    Mail 5.2
    I have many diferent email accounts (gmail, hotmail, prodigy.net.mx, etc)
    Some are POP, some are IMAP
    I have another computer, an iMac with older system and older Mail app. and used same setup for all accounts
    I can receive emails, but I cannot send emails on any of the accounts. I have quadruple checked all settings and all seems to be ok.
    All smtp connections appear as not connected, yet different servers, or email suppliers, this makes me suspect something else is wrong.
    Any ideas? Help would be appreciated.

    Just FYI, I've had the same problem for months now. I have been accessing my hotmail via the web, but decided to try the OS X Mail app.  I could get emails into the account with no problem but couldn't send.  I read all the blog and support entries and have tried everything they recommended, like changing my computer name to one word, without success.  Then last night, it just so happened that my broadband provider had to change out my wireless modem.  As soon as he plugged in the new one, some emails that had been in my outbasket for a month went through instantly and all of a sudden my Mail, both incoming and outgoing now work.  So I think people need to look at their router settings for the a solution to the problem.

    I changed my server at the end of May & all worked well until the past week end since when I am getting a message saying that I cannot get email because the server will not connect - although it does. It also claims that it was last backed up on Friday last despite having had several emails since Friday. What has happened & can I get email back to normal?

    Hello Stern snapper
    If you are having issues with receiving email on your iPad, then check out the article below to troubleshoot the issue. You may just need to remove the email account and add it back in.

    I was getting email notifications (at my yahoo account) when my phone was located. This has stopped. Is there a way to restart the email notifications?

    If you truly change your existing Apple ID's email address to a new email address, follow these instructions: iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    If you created a whole new Apple Account because you couldn't access the old one after being hacked, you will need to contact the Apple Account Security Team. Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • Cannot Get Email! Help!

    I have had my IPhone for about a year now.  I recently upgraded to the IOS/icloud.  Everyday i try to view my email and it pops up with this message: "Cannot Get Email. The user name or password for 'Gmail' is incorrect".  I have checked my user name and password a million times.  It's correct! It will also work randomly! 
    What's going on and how can I fix it?
    Thanks

    This is a known issue for some time with the gMail account - I created a favorite for https://www.google.com/accounts/UnlockCaptcha and use when this happens - fix everytime.

  • Shared Reminders: How do I stop getting emails when changes are made?

    My wife and I both have iPhone 5's that we bought 2 weeks ago. We are sharing a calendar and a "Grocery" list in reminders. I have everything set up where it is working properly but I keep getting emails when a change is made to the grocery list. I don't get emails when there are changes to the calendar.
    I want to stop getting emails when there are changes made to our grocery list but I am not sure how to do it. We both have icloud accounts and we both have checked the box under preferences in my calendar for "in app notifications" for icloud invitations. When I open Reminders in icloud I don't see a preferences for reminders.
    If it helps , or makes any difference, my wife has a yahoo mail account and I have a hotmail account. She does not get emails about changes being made.
    thanks

    Did you try to switch Push "off" and fetch to "manually"? This way no mail is delivered until you choose to open the mail app. The moment you open Mail on your device, your mail account will be checked and if any, mail will be delivered.
    Fetch New Data
    This setting lets you turn Push on or off for MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, Yahoo!, and any other push accounts on iPhone. Push accounts deliver new information to iPhone whenever new information appears on the server (some delays may occur). You might want to turn Push off to suspend delivery of email and other information, or to conserve battery life.
    When Push is off, and with accounts that don’t support push, data can still be fetched—that is, iPhone can check with the server and see if new information is available. Use the Fetch New Data setting to determine how often data is requested. For optimal battery life, don’t fetch too often.
    Turn Push on: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” > Fetch New Data, then tap to turn Push on.
    Set the interval to fetch data: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” > Fetch New Data, then choose how often you want to fetch data for all accounts.
    To conserve battery life, fetch less frequently.
    Setting Push to OFF (or setting Fetch to Manually on the Fetch New Data screen) overrides individual account settings.
