Cannot receive mail on my ipad but can send mail

this problem just started this morning. I rebooted and checked themail settings - no dice

Occasionally, it seems that email settings in iOS just stops working rellably.
You can try resetting your iPad and this just might solve the problem,
Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute. Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
if this does not work, then go take a note of your email settings,
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calender > Account Name > and take a note of all the settings there.
then delete the account and then set it up again as a new account.
I know that this can be a nuisance but it should fix the problem.

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?

I cannot send some people a text from Messenger on my iPad but CAN send them from my iPhone

I don't understand why I can send a person a text message from my iPhone but when I try to send the same message to the same person from my iPad, it tells me it cannot send as the person isn't registered. What does this mean. Yet I can send messages to others on both the iPhone and my iPad. Can you tell me what's going on? Thanks

The iPad uses iMessage to send messages. iMessages can only be sent to iDevices like the iPhone, iPod and iPad. Apple products such as the iMac, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, etc running Mac OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion and later can also send/receive iMessages.
Hope this helps,
Ryan

I can receive email on my ipad, but not send.

I have tried everything to send emails from my ipad . Just will not work. Is this a common problem with Ipad 2 ?
I am using Virgin media for my wifi internet.

No more common than sending email problems with a laptop or other portable device if the email account does not have an authenticated server or the incorrect settings were used when creating the account.
Does this email account have an authenticated SMTP server?
Is an error message provided and if so, what?

Cannot see emails in the inbox, but can send emails out. why?

I bought the Galaxy S III about 3 months ago, and have been struggling to set up my personal email (my own domain hosted by godaddy.com). my gmail accounts sync up nicely from day 1.
Today, a tech rep from Godaddy.com suggested that i turn off wi-fi, and set up the account using the phone connection only. That seemed to work, and i was able to set up personal email accounts (my own domain).
Issues: i cannot see any email in the Inbox. Every time i hit the button "load up to 50 more messages", the Update icon would spin for a few seconds, but no emails show up. the message said "account last synced on date..., time....". still no emails in the Inbox.
a) i tried using the email software that came with the phone for the (the icon has an envelope and a red seal in the middle). the email was correctly set up, i was able to send emails out, but still no emails show up in my inbox.
b) i tried using the K9 email app (downloaded from apps market, free). the email was correctly set up, i was able to send emails out, but still no emails show up in my inbox.
Does anyone know what i did wrong? or is something wrong with my phone?
thanks so much for your help

good thinking.... I'm trying to set up Outlook 2010 on my desktop. it's downloading emails from the server, but because i have so many emails up there (50K) for the past few years, it's not functioning properly yet. i can see the emails and i can move them to different folders (10K emails in Inbox at a time, more get downloaded as i move emails out of the Inbox). but i cannot send emails out from Outlook on the desktop.
wonder if these 2 issues are related.
i can see, receive and send emails directly on the server (web) no problem.
I would try clearing out your inbox as much as possible, and then try it. Maybe it cannot index correctly to download because there are so many. Just a thought.

Can't send but can receive text with certain number but can send/receive to others

After a year of texting with an out of network (T mobile) number, yesterday my phone became unable to send text to it. It receives no problem, sends and receives to other numbers and the t mobile number is sending and receiving other numbers without issue. I get an error message with the X envelope icon. I've rebooted and had the old conversation deleted from the t mobile number. I have no idea how to troubleshoot further

Success! I tried *228 but no improvement. Took the phone to Verizon and they blamed Facebook, which I think is close to the truth. Verizon doesn't support texting to 11 digit phone numbers, so if your contacts are synched to something that uses that format, it might change the way the phone sees the contacts phone number when it tries to SMS the contact. Lose the leading 1 and you should be OK.

Exchange - Cannot receive emails but can send

Using Exchange 2007 - (CAS,Hub,Mail and Transport). I have all external mail coming in on http/s to webmail and outlook anywhere and port 25 smtp (mail.domain.com). Firewall NAT rule is External to Internal.
I then created a DMZ and now have webmail and outlook anywhere http/s going from External>>>>DMZ>>>Internal and it works fine. But when I changed smtp 25 to External>>>DMZ>>>Inside - I cannot receive any emails from
external, I can send though.
I Only changed the way it is being routed, instead of going from External (mail.domain.com) to Internal (mail server). I have it going External (mail.domain.com)>>>(DMZ IP) >>>(Internal Mail server).
I didn't change any IPs or URLs or anything on the External or Internal and webmail and outlook anywhere are working fine through the DMZ.
I thought maybe it could be the external mail filter in the cloud that hits our external domain name but since I'm not touching anything external I don't see how that would matter.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi,
Based on my experience, improper permission groups would always bring mail flow issue. Thank you for sharing the solution here.

recently changed ISP, now cannot send emails on iPad but can receive them

Make sure that your username and password are set in the outgoing mail servers setting.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

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 have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account or delete messages etc. For some reason, I CAN send mail on Apple mail using this account, although it takes several minutes. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari and internet explorer on my office PC. It's obviously a glitch in Apple's Mail. I've deleted this account and reopened it in Mail on my Mac Pro with no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, this E amil account is major to my business.

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3276
sounds like a corrupt database or index
the glitch is your home folder and mail folder, esp look at syncservices
I'd post in the mail or Lion forum where you will find similar issues being discussed.

I have my email set up, I can send, but I cannot receive mail. What could be wrong ?

SMTP is the protocol used to send mail, where IMAP and POP are the protocols used to receive mail. ISPs can have different servers for these protocols.
In this case, the specified receiving (IMAP or POP) server, or the receiving user and password credentials, are likely incorrect.
What does the Connection Doctor diagnostic tool report?
Mail.app's Window menu > Connection Doctor
To check or change the settings, select Mail.app's Mail menu > Preferences... > Accounts and select the account you need to edit in the left column.
The receiving information will be displayed for the selected Account, with either POP or IMAP shown. Confirm with the ISP that your POP or IMAP mail settings are correct per the ISP's recommendations, as well. And in general, IMAP is preferable to POP, if you have the option of using either of those with your ISP.

I am able to send email but cannot receive mail. I am connected to internet. I can go thru Safari to receive.
Would appreciate any help.
