Contact Microsoft to see if Hotmail is having any issues.
The issue described is not an iPhone or iOS issue.

Whenever i turn on ipad mail i get a message cannot gt mail the connection to the server failed

when i turn on ipad mail it says cannot get mail the conenction to the server failed

I had connection to my email last night when I went to bed. When I woke up this morning, my "hotmail" account wouldn't connect to the server. My other emails are fine but I cannot get my email to connect to the server. I called microsoft and asked and my email works on my computer but it's the strangest anomaly that my email of all days stops working now. I need it so bad to do work. I've already tried deleting the email and resetting it up twice but I just don't know what to do.
Thanks,

on my iphone I am getting a "Cannot Get Mail" prompt says " the connection to the server failed. My mail last updated 1-31-14(the last time it would retrieve mail) Ive done the turn on and off thing,thanks

i had this problem a couple times. Try:
1) to restart your iPhone (turn off and then on)
2) connect to a different network or use cellular (it may be a network problem)
3) delete your mail account from Mail app, and then add it back in
4) create an icloud backup of all your data, restore through iTunes and then restore from icloud
hope this helps. cheers!

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.

HT2480 Ipad mini - exchange email stopped working randomly Error: "Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed."

I got an iPad mini over Christmas and have had no issues setting up/managing my email until yesterday. I've had my Exchange email working for almost a month, and yesterday I stopped getting emails and getting the error: "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed."
I tried resetting the device (multiple times) and deleting and recreating the Exchange account (multiple times). This is getting annoying because it worked fine up until yesterday. I'm not aware of any updates to the device, or any changes that have occurred since yesterday.

Due to a screen issue, I had my iPhone 5 replaced two days ago. I repeated deleted the mail account and kept adding it but this did not make any difference. When I attempted to setup the new phone with my Google (Gmail via exchange active sync) accounts I was receiving this same "Cannot Get Mail" error. From what I was able to gather, this problem should be affecting Gmail accounts set up via Exchange. When originally purchasing the phone I was assisted and directed to set up my Gmail account through Exchange because it had the ability to use "ActiveSync" and push not only mail and calendars, but all of my contacts as well. I found this article regarding the subject.
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2413283,00.asp
What it came down to was having to delete my Gmail via Exchange account and separate it into two different accounts, a regular gmail account for my mail and a CardDAV account for my contacts.
Here is what I did. Google is changing their system and for new registrars Exchange ActiveSync will not work so you will be unable to register your account via Exchange and have your mail, calenders, and contacts all pushed together. I find this change really annoying. If you are having problems accessing your contacts after deleting the mail account, like I was, here is the work around.
To circumvent this issue go to Setting > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDAV Account: Under server ender google.com, then your email user name and password, then click next to verify the information.
I hope this helps.

Exchange Sync issues - Cannot get mail - the connection to the server faile

Since the upgrade to 2.2, I seem to be having a very frustrating mail issue that i cant seem to fix.
While trying to download my mail from my INBOX (on an exchange server) i get an error message - "Cannot get mail - the connection to the server failed"
ALTHOUGH when syncing my Sent mails, Calendar and contacts i have no issues.
I have tried rebooting the iphone as well as deleting my mail settings and reloading. The reloading was close to working as the iphone did download some messages (in the inbox) but stops someway through it and gives me the error message. Once i get the error message the phone will not download anymore / other mail messages.
Please can someone offer some suggestions.

Hope this helps someone like me, who has trying to figure out what went wrong. I have an iPhone 3G and ActiveSync to Exchange 2003 was working perfect for month's. All of a sudden today it stopped syncing my inbox and my battery just about died? Searched and Searched, rebooted Exchange, removed email account info, still not luck keep getting "Cannot Get Mail" "The connection to the server failed" message. The weird thing is I could get to my sent items, Calendar and AD contacts? But a thread in another Apple forum opened my eyes to what the problem was...a corrupt email in my inbox. Not sure what email it was I pretty much deleted every email I had after the last one I received on the iPhone. But it fixed the problem, no messing with Exchange virtual directories...nothing...just deleted a corrupt email!
Hope this helps someone.....

Getting: "cannot get mail the connection to the server failed"

I have been getting this message -
"cannot get mail the connection to the server failed"
for about a week now. iPhone is 3G,16GB, version 2.1.
When I try to connect to my companies Exchange server.
Was working great. Then all of a sudden this happened.
I have tried from both the 3G Network, companies internal wireless, and my wireless at home, all with same result.
I have several friends who have the same phone and they reported getting the same thing, but theres is more extensive... not able to get to Gmail accounts either...
I have done some research on this, and find that others are getting the errors as well, seems to coinside with some update, I checked with our exchange admin and they have made no changes to the Exchange servers.
We also tried to delete the accounts from the phones, and recreate, no change, still same error.
Anyone know why this is doing this?

We ran windows updates on the mail server a weekend or so before this problem on the 28th. One of the updates was a DNS fix that expanded the dynamic port range dns is using. Problem was, in it’s infinite wisdom, MS allowed this range change to include 2883, the AUTD or active sync port. So we had to do a registry change to exclude the port for Active sync only. Here’s the KB article:

TS3899 "Cannot Get Mail" "The connection to the server failed"...

I cannot retrieve my mail. I get the message "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed". How do I correct this?

iPhone 4: I get the same message every time I open my mail. BUT, it's retrieving my mail. It's super annoying. I have to click 'OK' and my mail is there anyway. I think it was doing this BEFORE I updated the system software yesterday.

TS3899 What causes "Cannot get mail" The connection to the server failed.

Although my email messages are still being downloaded to my iPhone 6, I recently started to systematically get the following error message: "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed."
What could be the cause of this error, which only appeared after updating the iOS to 8.3.
Thanks.

Usually there is not a password, SSL is set wrong, the server name is wrong, or the Port is wrong.
Go toSettings > Mail, Contacts,Calendars, then the Mail Account and see if the Incoming Server is some form of STP server specified, then that a password is set, and the if that is all correct go to Advanced and see how SSL is set.

Re: iphone 4 cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed

re: iphone 4 cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed
how do I fix this? thx

Thank you for your quick reply.
The easiest thing for me to do was delete the account on my phone and then add it again.
Thankfully it solved my problem.
I had just updated my phone and my internet service which is why I believe there was a problem.

HT6147 After the upgrade to 7.0.6, all my mail boxes get errors saying Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed.

Please help.

I'm encountering the very same issue. I updated to 7.0.6 and now I continuously get the 'Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed'.
I'm on an iPhone 5 and my email account is Outlook.com set up through the Exchange option.
I have attempted PhilipRoy's suggestion, but unfortunately it hasn't solved my issue. Please note that this happens both on WiFi and 3G.
It's driving me nuts.
