Cannot get mail message, then later I get mail

Cannot get mail message for all accounts, then later without doing anything I get my mail a couple of hours late. Have screen shot but can't seem to insert it here.

Hello there dinadinadina,
It sounds like you have modified the password settings for your Gmail account after changing the password. Thats where I would have started too. Next I would restart the device and test it one more time, and then remove and add the account again in Settings:
Get help with Mail on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Restart your iOS device.
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the affected email account.
Tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

  • HI, I just bought an iPhone 4S. Although my iPad and other iPhone 3GS connect to our server (SBS2003) I cannot get through.  It checks all items in the connection and then I get the message :Cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed."

    HI, I just bought an iPhone 4S. Although my iPad and other iPhone 3GS connect to our server (SBS2003) I cannot get through.  It checks all items in the connection and then I get the message :Cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed."  I Tried everything, rebooting, reset all iPhone, etc.  All Apple devices work perfectly expect mine.  Please advise

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
    If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

  • Anyone getting message "cannot get mail" on iphone using yahoo?

    Couple of days back when I tried to log into my yahoo.com mail account, I received a full screen message that yahoo.com thought my password was compromised and requested I supply a new one.  I didn't look at the url to see if it was from yahoo.com or trustworthy (darn it!).  I decided not to change my password and was allowed to go on to yahoo.com mail.  Then later when I tried to check my yahoo.com email from my iphone4, I got this message that "cannot get mail" and my password must be incorrect.  I went back to the yahoo.com mail on my Macbook and, after getting the same warning message as before, I did enter a new password.  Then tried to get into yahoo email on the iphone4 and succeeded.  The next day, I tried to get into yahoo email from the iphone4 and I got the darn "cannot get mail" message on the iphone4.  I've tried deleting the yahoo mail account on the iphone4 and reinstalling it, but no luck.  Still get same message!  Anyone know what to do?

    Thanks

  • I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

    I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. How can I fix this error so I can send emails.

    The issue definitely sounds like your Outgoing/SMTP settings need to be changed.  Simply set them to the proper settings for your provider as was suggested above.
    I found this link for Knology:  http://support.knology.net/content/email.setup.cfm
    The SMTP settings can be edited on the iPad/iPhone by going to Settings--> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, edit the account having trouble, click the Account, then at the bottom is the SMTP server info, click on it to edit it further.
    It should allow you to edit the primary smtp server and let you enter all the good stuff as you see in the Knology link above.
    Some providers require you to register your account on their service like AT&T.

  • I cannot delete mail from my inbox and get a message saying (msg) could not be moved to the mailbox trash-POP account".

    I suddenly cannot delete mail from my inbox and get a message saying " (msg) could not be moved to the mailbox trash-POP account".  It does not matter if I am trying to delete a single message or mulitiple messages.  Can anyone help?

    If you're running Leopard, as your profile says, then you need to post your question in that forum, not the Snow Leopard forums. So if you're really running Snow Leopard, you need to update your profile to show that, as well as give more details about what kind of mail accounts you have, and who your email provider is.

    Is anyone getting this message when trying to access Yahoo Email?  "Cannot Get Mail, The connection to the server failed?"

    I have Yahoo mail (POP) account.  Mine is working fine at present.  I do occasionally get asked for password while sending mail.  I have had your issue in the past and it usually clears up in a few hours.  Sometimes I sign out and then back in and it starts working again.

  • HT201320 keep getting message  on iPad 4, when opening mail "Cannot Get Mail" Help!

    I have my hotmail and gmail both set up on my iPad 4 3 G. Also had it on my iPad 1, before changing over to the 4. It has all been fine, until recently, where I keep getting a pop up window, upon trying to open my email. Message says: Cannot Get Mail, The mail server "imap.gmail.com" is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings.  Then is has a OK button to press. I have checked and rechecked in my mail settings that the info is correct. Don't know what to do.  PS....I already had my two accounts synced together, so I see most mail, but cannot retrieve some mail I have placed into folders.

    Yahoo's been having persistently random issues for months. You can try just waiting it out, or delete and readd your yahoo account. When my accounts were affected I just used webmail to access my yahoo accounts until it cleared up.
    Chances are it's all on their end and really all you can do is wait it out.

  • Gmail Message "Cannot Get Mail.  The connection to the server failed"

    Curious if anyone else has seen the "cannot get mail" message pop up when using the iphone 4 mail in iOS. I only get it for my gmail and only when I select the all inboxes option. When I select only the gmail account, I don't see this pop up. My email downloads fine, but for some reason this message continues to show up every time I access it. Starting to get annoying.
    Any solution as to how to keep this from popping up. Maybe changing something within the gmail account setup or preferences on the iphone?

  • HT1766 I cannot receive my mail for the last 3 days.  I get the error message cannot get mail-the connection to the server failed.  How do I fix this?

    How do I fix my phone?  I cannot get mail-I only get the message that  the conncection to the server failed.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • On my I pad mini I keep getting "cannot get mail" the connection to the server failed. but everything is Ok I can get mail. Why do I get this message??

    On my I pad Mini I keep getting the message "Cannot get Mail" The connection to the server has failed.
    But this is not the case everything works OK so why do I get the message

    An iOS fluke or mail app glitch maybe. Not sure anyone will know why you get it. Do you're ever close the mail app? Try closing it and reset the iPad and see if the message goes away.
    Assuming that you are running iOS 7, in order to close apps, you drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I keep getting a message Cannot Get Mail No password provided for "MobileMe"

    I have upgraded to 4S and the phone is functioning properly but I keep getting some error messages.  In Mail, I keep getting the prompt - Cannot Get Mail  No password provided for "MobileMe". Please go to Mail Account Settings and enter a password.
    When I click Settings, I have already removed the "MobileMe" account from my phone & am receiving the MobileMe mail through the iCloud account that is set up.  And that iCloud account is functioning properly. 
    So the Mail is attempting to pull mail from an account I deleted off my iPhone & then when I try to follow the prompts to fix the problem & enter a password, it's no longer there.
