Cannot receive email in my Apple mailbox

I have been using TalkTalk for a few years now and always been able to receive emails into my Apple Macbook Mailbox.  Suddenly I can only send emails but not  receive them.  My iPad works fine and will both send and receive.  I am continually receiving the message "Internet Account Preference cannot connect to the account TalkTalk"  Anyone any ideas?  I have tried to recreate my mailbox but even that didn't work.
Thank you.

  • TS3276 I cannot receive email through my Apple mail.

    I have to go to my Comcast website to retrieve the mail. I spent 45 minutes with a Comcast techie and he could not solve the problem. I've tried all the suggestions offered online and none get the mail working. I've used the connection doctor and that tells me what I already know; the POP or incoming mail is not working. SMTP is fine. I can send. I've tried shutting down and re-opening Mail; I've taken it offline for 10+ seconds and brotught it back online, to no avail, etc, etc, etc.
    Any other suggestions?
    Can I download a new Mail program?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

    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.

    I cannot receive emails on my ipad but I can send them. When I try to fetch emails a pop up box tells me to says verify your incoming email setting in settings.  I have, it is correct as I am receiving emails on my iPhone with the same incoming address.  I have tried deleting it and putting it in again but that does work. The wifi is working fine when using the Internet. Has anyone any ideas what is happening and how I can rectify the problem?

  • Cannot receive emails in iCloud Mail

    I am using iCloud Mail on my iMac (Yosemite 10.10.2), iPad 2 (iOS 8.1.2) and iPhone 4 (iOS 6.1.3).
    Because the iPhone is still on iOS 6, I have not enabled iCloud Drive on either the iMac or iPad.
    I can send emails but cannot receive emails, except emails which I send to myself.
    I have tried deleting my account and then reinstalling, to no avail.
    I have also tried sending and receiving from within iCloud.com with the same results as above.
    When I initially set this up, it all worked fine over the three devices.
    Would really appreciate some advice to fix the problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok let me summazite my case :
    In Office via wifi or enernet
    1. My account failed to login
    2. The other family account no issue
    In Office via hotspot from my iPhone using 3G
    1. all accounts are working
    At Home either wifi or 3G - No issue at all
    I called Apple in Hong Kong, they said there are many users reporting the same problem, and they are investigating. Suggested me to reset the router and changing password, both do not solve .

    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...

  • HT4061 Cannot receive emails on ipad

    Hi I have recently purchased an iPad and have been using it ok. In the last few days every time I try and retrieve my mail on it it says a message "the mail server imap.gmail.com is not responding, verify you have entered the correct account info into mail settings" I am not technical at all, and have asked my son in law to look too who is very clever in this sort of thing, but he cannot clear the problem. any ideas please?

    You may have lost your wifi connection.

  • I cannot receive email properly now. When I open mail, it says that is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, it gives me my newest ones. But this takes a long time. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right setting

    I cannot receive email properly on either my IPad or my IPhone. I have had them for over a year and they have always worked fine. Until three days ago, when they both started acting up. On the IPad, when I open mail, it says it is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, which takes quite a while to get to, I finally get the most recent ones. The IPad is sending emails just fine.
    On my IPhone, when I open mail, it says it is downloading 100 emails, but it doesn't do that. And it gives me no new emails at all. The IPhone is sending email just fine.
    I have already deleted the email accounts on both devices and reinstalled them. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right settings. The Outlook email on my desktop is working perfectly.

    WMV is a heavily-compressed format/CODEC, and the processing time will depend on several factors:
    Your CPU, which is not that powerful in your case
    Your I/O sub-system, which is likely a single HDD on your laptop
    The source footage. What is your source footage?
    Any Effects added to that footage. Do you have any Effects?
    Each of those will have an impact on the time required.
    The trial has only one main limitation - the watermark. Now, there are some components, that have to be activated, but are not with the trial, but they would be evident with Import of your source footage, if it's an issue.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I cannot receive emails on my iMac

    This only started yesterday had been fine up until then but suddenly I cannot receive emails, any idea's

    Might be too simple an answer, but some have reported mail dropouts from the mail server side that fix themselves after a bit of time. Also, have you restarted yet? And try a Permissions Repair in Disk Utility (Utilities Folder).

  • How do I do this. Users without FormsCentral accounts or accounts with unverified email addresses cannot receive email notifications. No notifications will be sent until the accounts are created and verified.

  • I cannot receive email because Inbox is full? which is not full..

    ISP Telfort Webmail works but I cannot receive email through Thunderbird ! Yesterday I received 7 emails 1/2 hour later I could not receive email. The message I receive as follows:
    "Postbox is full and cannot receive any more email, please remove old email to make room for new email ".
    Can someone please help to resolve this?
    Thanks, Fred

    dear Airmail,
    I have checked and removed nearly all email from my webmail. I have emptied the trashcan and I have 4gb of space allocated and have about 1.5 gb in use.
    The message is placed everytime I try to receive new email: The message is:
    De map Postvak IN is vol en kan geen bijkomende berichten meer bevatten. Verwijder oude of ongewenste berichten en comprimeer de map om plaats te maken voor meer berichten.
    In other words the Inbox is full and I cannot receive new email. Remove old or unwanted messages to make room for more messages.
    with warm regards,
    all_fred

  • Re: red X when sending email, cannot receive email

    Dear Frankie S:
    I too have a Toch 9800 and cannot receive emails on my device (no problem getting them on my laptop).  (in addition to not being able to send some text messages).  However, I can't even get into the Setup - Email Account application to try to resend a service book (whatever that is).  I get the following message: "Your device had a problem connecting to the server."   I'm thinking this is due to the fact that the "Service Status" screen shows that I'm not even connected to the Blackberry Internet Service, but I don't recall that I manually disconnected it.  (I don't use the BB Enterprise Service.)   How can I reconnect to the BB Internet Service?  is this a phone issue or a service provider issue? 
    Coincidentally, for some reason, my device stopped automatically connecting to my home wi-fi network when the device reactivates in the morning.   I have to connect by choosing it from the list of Saved Wi-fi Networks.  Any idea why this is happening?
    My mobile network connection to AT&T is fine.
    Please help!
