Cannot send or receive email from laptop or desktop using icloud. Iphone and ipad work fine.

My mail server on my laptop and on my desktop are basically useless. My ipad and iphone seem to be working fine.

The laptop seems to have been fixed by the fix listed. My desktop, however, still is unable to receive or send mail.
this is the message I am receiving.
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “iCloud” or try again.
The server returned the error: Mail was unable to connect to server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” using SSL on port 587. Verify that this server supports SSL and that your account settings are correct.
thanks so much

Cannot send or receive email from the cloud. all updates are competed and everything else is working fine on MAC. iPad sends and receives fine. any ideas.

On Imac I am not able to send or receive messages. All software is updated. My iPad that uses the same email address and the Cloud, sends and receives just fine. It is not "the colored" thing that is spinning but the little black and white circular icn that is spinning away. My other email address is functioning fine. It is merely the ICLOUD based email that is acting up. Any ideas?

First try deleting the account and reinstall it.

Can't send or receive email from one account

Just bought the iPod Touch last week. Set up Hotmail account with no problems. However my MacDialup.com account (used to be dial up, but is DSL now) won't work at all. They aren't set up to use SSL, so I turned that off after the iPod automatically tried it. I tried IMAP and POP, tried changing incoming server port number from defalt 143 to 110, triple checked spelling on every single entry including password. Tried calling my ISP tech support and talked to a tech who owns an iPhone and lives in the bay area, but he couldn't figure it out. I tried deleting the MacDialup account then syncing the Touch to my iTunes on my MacBook Pro (which has no problem sending or receiving email from this same account) and had the email settings imported from the MacBook Pro - still no luck. Tomorrow I'll try bringing both my MacBook Pro and iPod Touch into the Genious Bar. Maybe they can figure it out.

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.

Hi.
This sounds like one of the fleeting account problems that can happen from time to time, changing the password doesn't do anything and will not help.
Unfortunately it can last for a few days, so best to keep trying every few hours.
There are probaby a few reasons for this, including local anti-virus or other security programs interferring. Sometimes a router power cycle can help, by getting a new IP address in case the one you've curently got has gone stale.
Are you able to login via webmail ? (or was this actually via webmail rather than something like Outlook or Thunderbird ?).
If the servers were down, then it would affect millions of people, and there would be masses of reports.

That's a load of manure.

I am getting the message that my email password and/or username is not correct. It is correct! I am the only one who cannot send or receive emails...I am the only one using a mac.

I am getting the message that my email password and/or username is not correct. They are both correct! I am the only one who cannot send or receive emails...I am the only one using a mac. i use mac mail and it is my companies server. I took my computer and iPhone to the Apple store...4 hours later they said that couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. Any suggestions???? I am also not able to log into the C-Panel...

Same here! Happened yesterday to me on New iPad and iPhone 4S. On iPad I managed to correct it by removing the account and activating it again as an Exchange account...I have mail and calendar OK!
On the iPhone nothing seems to work!
Facts:
1. everything worked perfectly for years!
2. I have the 2-step authentication deactivated on my google account so it cannot be this one.
3. On desktop everything works just fine, on iPad everything is OK with Exchange account added (after Google removed support for Exchange account access I CAN ONLY HAVE ONE DEVICE with Google Exchange account, so doing the same on the iPhone does not work!)
4. Tried to remove and add the account again - no results.
5. Tried to remove and add as Google, as Exchange, as Other account - I get calendar but no mail!!!
6. Tried to reboot between remove/add accounts - no results.
7. Tried to ("reset settings") reset the device - no results.
8. Tried to add as POP account and I it worked - I get mail but I do not need POP as I am using zounds of mail with labels and need to be working on an IMAP account
9. To make things even more complicated...I have another account which works perfectly!!!!!
Anyone out there having a clue?

I have no problem connecting to the Internet but I cannot send or receive email on my iPod

I can connect to the Internet on my iPod and do all it is supposed to do but cannot send or receive email. This only happened 2 days ago. What might be the problem?

Could be the Apple servers. Try later.

I cannot send nor receive emails. The message I get is that I need to type in my account password which I've done but still unable to send or receive. I get texts fine

My Iphone 4 is new, and I have been able to send and receive texts, but cannot send nor receive emails. I get the message that I need to input my password for my yahoo account which I've done many times. When I type messagefor outgoing it only allows me to save as a draft. Any ideas?

Are you positive you're typing the correct password in? You might want to try and reset your password, and try again. You'll get texts because it isn't connected to your email account.

Cannot send or receive emails in my E71

My questions are: What does that circle with the crossed line means? and How to do for receiving and sending emails again?. Thanks in advance.

Don't use ALL CAPS on post, online means you are SHOUTING and is very RUDE.
SMS is a carrier service, talk to your carrier.

Cannot send or receive messages from specific buddy

I cannot send or receive messages from one specific buddy. When I go to double click on the name on my Buddy List, nothing happens. When she sends me messages I am alerted of the message but cannot see it. In the "Window" tab her name appears as if we are chatting but I cannot view the window.
Help!

Sounds like they have not got the ports open to allowing Incoming stuff to their computer.
Any router firewall or basic settings they have may allow the outgoing call but not accept any incoming stuff.

Cannot send or receive email

Hello,
The other day I changed my password on my comcast.net email account, and everything works fine. Then I entered the new password into my iPhone email address (same email address as Comcast). Since then, I cannot send or receive email on my iPhone. Never had this problem before.
Each time I try to send an email a window pops up and says: "The user name or password for (then it gives my email address) is incorrect"
(iPhone 3G)
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks so much

It's set correctly. I've entered it several times to make sure.

What email account are you having an issue with?
Try removing the account you are having an issue with and then re-add the account via settings > mail, contacts and calendars.
A lot of times this fixes the problem with sending and receiving mail.
Also, check this articles out http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4810
