Using Email on iPhone Away from Home

If anyone can help with this I would be grateful. I am having issues sending and receiving emails (with a comcast email account) from my iPhone when I'm away from home. At home it works fine -- I'm guessing because it's accessing comcast's mail servers via my Airport WiFi system. However, when away from home and when the iPhone has to send/receive via ATT's Edge network, I get "unable to connect to server" messages.
Any suggestions on how I might fix this, or is this an ATT issue?

You should be able to receive mail fine, whether you're on WiFi or Edge...
for your outgoing server try adding :587 to the end of the server address.
Put your username and password in.
Go to advanced and make sure SSL is turned off, and authentication is set to "password".
That worked for me with my provider, and I had used the suggestion based one what someone using comcast had said!

Traveling with the zeen/finding a new WiFi connection somewhere away from home

Do I have to be near my printer (within my wireless signal) to use the Zeen? I will be traveling and I cannot find out where or how to get the zeen to find and lock into another WiFi signal away from my home. I went to a place that has a locked wireless signal and went to a place (library) that should have had an open signal. I could not figure out how or where to enter the code for the house with the locked wireless.
Help is so appreciated. I so want to take the zeen for small internet stuff while on vacation but can't if it wont work independent of the printer. The printer just can't go...it's too big for my suitcase
ref=HPc510a, removable zeen
This question was solved.

Hi imtad,
You can take the Zeen, all you have to do is from the home screen:
Go to the menu button (the four little lines by the home icon).
Go to settings.
Go to wireless.
Select the network you wish to connect to at the bottom of the screen.
If a password is required, you will be prompted to enter it.
At the top of the wireless menu, under Zeen Wi-Fi, it should say 'Connected' if all is successful.
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

You can go into an Apple Retail store and use one of their computers to activate your iPhone. There are several stores in Atlanta, you can lookup as store by entering your zip code at this web site

Is there a way to get iPods to work away from my wi-fi at home?

When we leave the house the kids are no longer connected to our wi-fi. I thought the iPods would work like my iPhone 4S and would just pick up wherever we are. They have 4th generation iPods. Is it possible to get a data plan through ATT to get them to work away from home or do they just not work like phones? I am assuming that they are still on 3G, but could be wrong. They like iTunes and YouTube, so those don't work without wi-fi. Any help would be appreciated.

"I thought the iPods would work like my iPhone 4S and would just pick up wherever we are."
Why would you think this? It is not a phone. It has no cellular connection. it only connects via wi-fi.
"I am assuming that they are still on 3G, "
No ipod has ever been on 3G. No ipods have ever connected via anything but wi-fi
Sorry

Getting email away from home

How do I get my .mac email away from home on my son's pc-based laptop? Thx.

Go to http:mail.mac.com/yourusername and log in with your .Mac password.
From here you should be able to read your mails.
Next time you're back home and login with Mail, your read messages will still download (unless you've deleted them of course)

Do you have to have a phone service to get service away from home on ipad

Do I have to have Verizon phone service to get service on ipad away from home...like in car. If I do does it come from the phone company?

You need a cellular data service from either AT&T or Verizon, depending on the model iPad you have. Look at this: http://www.apple.com/ipad/3g/
iPad cellular data is separate from any cell phone data plans you may have.

How can I get my iPhone 4 repaired while away from home?

I will be working in Manila in the Philippines for the next few months.
My iPhone 4 has developed a hardware fault and needs to be repaired. It is out of warranty, but I am willing to pay for the cost of the repair myself. The Apple Authorized Service Providers here inform me that the only organizations who carry out repairs are the two official iPhone distributors in the country. Unfortunately, neither of these companies are willing to repair my iPhone because it was not purchased from them.
I am told that I will have to fly back to the country I originally purchased the unit from to have the work carried out there.
People travel and work all around the world these days. Do Apple really expect their customers to fly to a different country just to get their phone
repaired? How is someone travelling on a business trip supposed to manage without his phone if it develops a fault while he is away from
home?
Does anyone know a way I can get my iPhone fixed while I am here?
Chris

As I explained, I'm not asking for Apple to provide warranty support. I'm quite willing to pay for the cost myself. The problem is that none of the authorized Apple service centers are willing to accept the unit for repair because it wasn't purchased from them.
Its quite shameful that Apple permits its official support organizations to behave in this way. Someone working away from home should be able to get their phone repaired if it develops a fault. These things are not toys for many of us. A lot of people depend on them to carry out their business.

HT201210 Ive updated to ios 6 using wireless. once completed it has asked me to plug my phone into itunes. i'm away from home without itunes what can i do ? the phone cant get past this screen

Ive just tried to install iOS 6 using wirless. Once completed it asks me to plug it into itunes.
I'm away from home at the moment so i dont have access to itunes. is there anything i can do ? the phone will not do anything !!
is there a way to get passed this or revert back ?

I have the same problem and we can't simply just restore from the backup. It says that I have to set up my iPad through restoring. So I tried restoring it in iTunes but it won't restore until I have to turn off this **** "Find My iPad" crap but I couldn't because the set up's not complete and it won't let me go to my settings unless I set it up. So basically it's asking me to go to my settings but before I could go to it I have to restore, and in order to restore I have to go to settings. Get where I'm at?
Please, Apple Tech people! Help this 14 year old girl on her period, PMS-ing, thinking about how I want to strangle however made this mistake of a set up, updating her iPad in 3 am in the morning cursing the day she even thought of updating. I seriously need to get out of this loophole. I don't want to use my other iPad that only has 16GB. I just wanted the pretty graphics I saw in my parent's iPad airs, I don't ask for anything more :''''(

Want to have My iPod Touch to be connected to a WiFi while away From Home

While at Home I am connected to my WiFi through my computer system but when I am away from home there isn't very much WiFi Hot spots in my area except when I am in a Star bucks or in a business that says that they have "Free" WiFi. I have a few WiFi iPod Touch Apps that are able to locate Free WiFi Hot Spots but when I go and try to use them when I am away from home I am not able to use it at all.
Is there a way that I can have my iPod Touch to be set up where I can be connect to any WiFis when I am away from Home? or have my iPod Touch to be able to search for any WiFis in my area?
Note: I have a MobileMe Account and I have a email account with my local Isp which is a Pop account.

I'll add another positive review about the MiFi device and its use with a Touch. I've had this for about 2 months, and it works very well. And I'll disagree with the poster who said "get an iPhone".
The MiFi has several advantages over the iPhone -- First, it's a mobile hotspot that can provide WiFi for up to 5 devices simultaneously (the iPhone can't do that, even once AT&T enables tethering); Second, the MiFi allows use of a network other than AT&T (which many users may appreciate)...aside from Verizon, Sprint sells a version that works on its network; Finally, the price of the MiFi and its usage plan may well end up being less expensive than an iPhone.
It's not cheap, but then again, neither is an iPhone and its usage plan. I spend nearly $60/month on the expensive MiFi plan, but can switch down (and then back up) to the lower-priced $40/month plan if I don't need the full 5gb a month that the higher plan provides.
Sure, you don't get a telephone with the Touch + MiFi solution (although Skype works well if you add a microphone to your Touch), but not everyone wants/needs a phone...and for those who want primarily data/WiFi/Web, the MiFi with a Touch will give an iPhone a real run for its money.
I'll also add that the original poster may just need access to more hotspots - i.e., other than those that advertise "free" WiFi. If that's the case, she might consider something like a Boingo membership which will get her online in many places...including just about every McDonalds in the US.

TS1398 How do I connect to the internet with my iphone when away from home

I have an iphone 3GS which was fine , was able to connect to the internet away from home when at uni, at appointments. Since software update to IOS 6.0, can now only connect to internet wirelessly when at home-as soon as leave the house it disconnects. Is this just because of the software update? Have tried adjusting settings but got nowhere. Thank you

When your wifi is off. Do you see your carrier name at the top left with either 3G/4G. If not you can try a reset, hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
or settings - cellular - cellular data - ON
if those two suggestion doesn't help then you will need to contact your phone carrier to resolve the issue.

Why can't I get my email messages when i'm away from home?

My Blackberry gets emails when i'm at home via our wireless network, but when I'm away from home, I don't get any email messages or text messages at all. We have both the home WiFi wireless network "on" and the Mobile Network is on. What should I do so I can get emails when I'm away from home?

Without a Blackberry Data Plan you can't get email pushed to your Curve. While on your wi-fi network you are able to access your email, but away from that link you need a data plan.

Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all.

Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else? I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

Wifi works at home but not when away from home

My Wifi works at home but not when away from home, what is wrong? I thought with a phone plan I didn't need to have a wifi connection.

You either need WiFi or Cellular (or both). If you have neither, you can't connect to the internet.
Most people use WiFi at home and Cellular while away from home, or connect to public WiFi networks where there are some.
