Cannot send or receive mail but connected to the Internet

I am in a public place using their community wi-fi but cannot send or receive email even though I am connected to the Internet.  I tried using the "Connection Doctor", but that did not help.  Thank you!

Some Wi-Fi hotspots, especially free ones, block all ports except those used for web browsing. If that's the case, you should be able to check your mail in a web browser, if the account has a web interface.

    Hello Sue,
    I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
    I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
    It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!

  • Cannot send or receive mail after installing iOS6 on iPhone4

    Cannot send or receive mail after installing iOS6 on iPhone4.
    All email accounts are still fine and not lost but ever since I installed iOS6 I cannot send any new email and I am not receiving either. That includes my Exchange, Yahoo  and Hotmail. I didn't loose any old email in my Inboxes.
    Can someone help please. thanks.

    I am having a similar problem.  I have iPhone 4 with the updated iOS6 and a Hotmail account.  Mail had been working after the update, but I noticed that wasn't really pushing my mail like it used to before the update.  I wouldn't get notifications after the update and when I open the Mail app, it would take much longer to download emails.  I decided to remove my Hotmail account and then re-add the account to the phone to see if that would fix the problem.  No such luck.  Now I have zero emails in my inbox on my phone when there is new email sitting in my Hotmail inbox on my laptop.  I've tried to delete and add the account multiple times now while rebooting the device and nothing changes...I've looked into other fixes mentioned here that say to change the settings on cellular date, airplane mode, push vs fetch, etc. and nothing is working.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello hairdresser25,
    I would be concerned too if my iPhone only connected to the Internet and was able to receive MMS when connected to Wi-Fi. I recommend following the steps in the following article to assist with your cellular data connection:

  • I receive a not connected to the internet message several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via cable modem.. When I input my password to enter network preferences, the connection re-establishes.

    I receive a "not connected to the internet message" several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via a cable modem. Software/firmware is up to date on the iMac (OSX 10.6.8)  and Tme Capsule(7.5.2). Browser is Safari 5.1.
    When I input my password at the prompt to enter network preferences, all the lights go green (ie... ethernet, ISP etc.) and the connection re-establishes immediately and states "the connection appears to be working normally".
    It more of a nuisance than anything and seems to have started ocurring over the past couple of months. I also have a windows XP box also connected to the same cable modem that I never have internet connectivity issues with. I've verified all the physical aspects of the connections and can't see any evidence of any actual drops in the modem logs. I suspect it is just an intermittent communication loss between the Imac and the Time Capsule, but I am not very familiar with Mac equipment yet.
    Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem and what you did (if anything) to resolve it?
    Thanks.

    The AirPort Express will connect to your existing wireless network if the network is using WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings.
    So, it can join the network as a client and then provide an Ethernet signal to your Time Capsule.
    Be sure to configure the Time Capsule to operate in Bridge Mode so that it will be operating on the same network.

  • HT4623 Cannot update from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 7...says that I cannot verify because I am not connected to the internet when I am clearly connected to the internet. I've tried from home and school.  Now what?

    I am trying to update an iPad 2 to iOS 7.  It hasn't updated since iOS 6.1.3.  When I try to update it, I get a msg box that tells me I cannot verify because I am not connected to the internet.  This is not true because I AM connected to the internet here at school.  I've tried at home and it does the same thing.  What to do now? 

    Try this  - 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.)

  • After last update cannot send or receive emails - no connection.

    Since last update a cannot send or receive emails. It is showing that Mozilla thunderbird is connecting, but it just freezes. When I close the thunderbird window, it closes, but not the program itself, since I can only start it again if I restart the computer. I uninstalled and reinstalled thunderbird, but no luck. The emails work fine through the webbrowser. I am using windows 7 sp 1.
    Ypur help would be greatly appreciated.

    After reinstall Thunderbird, DId you used the Old Profile or New Profile.
    Check with your IMAP/POP3, SMTP and PORT settings.

    Make sure your Firewall/Antivirus not blocking the Thunderbird.

  • Eudora 5.1 Cannot send or receive mail even after "correct" settings entered

    I recently joined Fios after the reps assured me I could use Eudora with Verizon as I had with Comcast. It'd be tough to switch programs at this point since I have 15+ years worth of emails, folders, etc.---------------------  I changed the settings to the ones all shown all over this forum & the internet, but still cannot send or receive. I get an SSL Negotiation error immediately upon hitting the send or check email button. Below are pics of all my settings, along with the error message. Any help would be great. thanx alot.  

    This is for an updated version of Eudora (7.1), but you may find it helpful:http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Verizon-net-Email/problems-sending-email-what-authentication-is-needed/m-p/634259#M14630 Everything else I could find with a quick search suggested you have to update Eudora to resolve this issue.

  • I cannot send or receive mail

    For about a month, I was unable to send but could receive mail. Now I am unable to send or receive mail. I also have to force quit mail quite often. I called our internet carrier and made sure our settings were accurate, but I'm still having problems. Any suggestionsz?

    Well, installing the Coupon Printer would have no effect on this, so that's not the problem. It could be that your Mail preferences are corrupt, so you should test that like this:
    1. Write down all you Mail preferences for all accounts, including your usernames and passwords.
    2. Quit Mail.
    3. Go to Home/Library/Preferences and remove the com.apple.mail.plist file to the Desktop.
    4. Restart Mail, enter all your account information again and test to see if the problem is still there. If it goes away, that was the problem, and you can then delete the preferences file on your Desktop.
    Post back with results.

  • Since upgrade from 4S to OS7 and Macmail cannot send or receive mail

    2 weeks ago I upgraded to OS7 as suggested by the community. After upgrade, my Outlook Express had changed to MacMail.  Since then I cannot send or receive.

    Yes, you can't send or receive email without port 25 being open.  You could try a service like this to get around that:

  • I cannot send or receive calls, but I can send and receive text and data? (Samsung Galaxy S5)

    I purchased my Samsung Galaxy S5 about a month ago now, and recently I cannot send or receive any phone calls. I can however send text messages and use data.  What do I do?

        That's not good to hear, ctshudy2016. What happens when you attempt to send pic message? Does a received message give you the option to download? Please provide me with a few more details.
