Connection to gmail server rejected

I am linked to the Internet through a hospitals WLAN. Safari works perfectly but the connection to the gmail server is been rejected continously.

There may be some administrative block at the hospital's wi-fi network.
Of that, we'd have no way of knowing for sure; it would be an answer
yet without being able to ask someone if there is a security issue or
special password, or limited access from their wi-fi service, who knows.
Had you tried to ping any other web server from your network utility?
Apparently if the computer accesses internet elsewhere, the problem
is with the hospital. Someone there may be able to answer to that side.
If you are also set up to use Mail as your client software, it may need to
have the settings checked to be sure they are correct for in/out going.
Had you tried a second browser to see if an issue was related to Safari?
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

Safari Unable to Connect with Gmail Server?

I tried to log into Gmail this morning. The top of the page shows, "Redirecting" and then I get an error message of:
Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://mail.google.com/mail/?zx=1f097o2n9gp73&zx=1kh3f7h1am1kh&zx=1csq8k28nus70& zx=1bwczg9pgidps&zx=g10ze1zx0sff&zx=14wtqho5dxtk9&zx=13kv3k6oydx77&zx=1r88a9caqj 9fp&zx=fl0o8h25c3ei&zx=oik6lno510m1&zx=19bfakq4mpe3q&zx=3e8utqfrvl63&zx=k0g11v3k 4khf&zx=exr39s69jmsp&auth=DQAAAKQAAADLE7LLEx7ogI42hpS1Ju4y0DGcetsZa1fYCSaI4hsJba mzTnwUQJfPQfBKujPN4gpyf-mCDMNtU2eOHVwdwwzBqzkTenbHMzmcddIXd7HSsoL_SCM8AtUg0IESbFRiZ NXI9My-UCB3ilJr7AhMe0qu4uGiPczmoFGq70dZLepy-H6ErmHLJDB2Pc8yG6qlPCiTJrVIbEqKAVgyBV GhMtwIJ4xh-aTWdUFeR005MOSw&gausr=kildow%40gmail.com&zx=14tx3zu5ur2f0” because Safari can’t connect to the server “mail.google.com”.
When I try off the Linux computer, Gmail's working fine and their apps status page shows that Gmail is working. Any ideas of how to fix this?

Well, that's a little weird, but I've taken care of the problem by clearing all cookies. It makes me wonder which of the little buggers was the culprit.

Apple mail won't connect to Gmail server!

I am not sure exactly what has happened. I have a year old MPB that is the glitchiest apple product I've had. Mail slowly stopped connecting to the Gmail server and says my passwords are incorrect. I have checked, rechecked, and even changed my passwords to ensure that the PW is not incorrect. I have three gmail accounts and some of them worked up until today. I cannot tell if this is a mac software issue or a gmail server issue. I've been having some odd issues with my MBP so I would count that out as the culprit. I double checked the files in Library/Preferences against an older backed up version and they seem to be intact.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Mine stopped wotking on the 9th, under the mail app on the left hand side, if you have triangles with ! marks in them, perform a left click and start "Mail Connection Doctor" This may help pinpoing the issue.
Mine is failing at trying to connect on port 143.
This worked for me, go the accounts settings window and in each gmail account enter the following info
Advanced Tab
IMAP Path Prefix enter [Gmail]
If you then tick "Use SSL" this should make the port 993
Authentication shold be set to "password"
Then save these settings, finally email is received, hope this helps.
Let is know how you get on.

TS3899 unable to connect to outgoing Gmail server

Mail and Gmail - server connection issues

My wife uses her Mac Mail to manager her Gmail account. She frequently gets errors where Mail cannot connect to the Gmail server. Sent mail sits in her outbox for hours and every time Mac Mail tries to send it she gets the 'cannot connect to Gmail server' error. After a time it connects and goes.
I have tried setting it up as IMAP and POP. No good.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

I've noticed the same problem. I'm moving to an area where my isp is not (no earthlink hi-speed in Marietta, GA :P) and thought it wise to switch my primary email to a free account. I'm debating if gmail is worth this hassle.
However, Google's support suggests clearing the CAPTCHA on the account, which is the challenge-response test used to determine if the user is human (it's usually a squiggly string of text or numbers you have to enter). This is odd, but I suppose makes sense if it's part of every gmail account. You can find how to do this in their help section.
worth a try anyway.

Can anyone help - my mail on my ipad will not connect to the server. My internet access is fine. How can I get my email to connect to the server?

My ipad will not connect tot he server when trying to access my mail. This has been happening since last Sunday. Some have said it is due to the latest software update. I am able to connect to the internet.
I am not having this issue on iPhone.
I checked all the settings, the wireless router in my house and at work.
I have completed a hard reset of the device.
I had our IT guy at work look at it.
He said to contact Apple....
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Apple mail will not connect to gmail (POP)

Hello,
For a week or so, Mail just will not connect to Gmail. Macbook Pro, Lepoard 5.8.
I tried deleting all accounts and creating them again but I get a message saying that the server is not answering.
This happened suddenly and Mail had been working fine for years... No changes in the Mac, no new software...No known general problem with Gmail. Gmail parameters set to POP as I'm using this instead of IMAP...
So right now All accounts have been deleted and I cannot re-connect....
Latest: even my Yahoo accounts do not work any more now.
Perhaps I should remove Mail and re-install it again ?
If so, how the h..k do I go about it as I'm no computer expert !
Please try not to be too technical as I'm french and do not really master PC language that well ...
Thanks and regards.

Are you using Gmail's 2-step verification? If so, you need to enter an application-specific password in Apple Mail. https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en

Try these basic troubleshooting steps first
1. Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage (try any webpage). If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you are unable to load a webpage, follow these troubleshooting steps.
          - Try to use an alternate Internet connection if available:
                    1. Try a different Wi-Fi connection
                    2. If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
                    3. If the affected email account is provided by your Internet provider, see if your issue is resolved while connected to your home Wi-Fi network.*
2. Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
3. Restart your iOS device.
4. Delete the affected email account from your device.

What does it mean "Cannot connect to the server" ?

We actually have two issues. For some reason Yahoo email stopped downloading on my wife's droid razzr. The section to alter the frequency to check for email is greyed out so you can't get in to it. Perhaps that has something to do with it. It is a "new" replacement phone since the original one quit working mid-text a couple weeks ago (phone only 5 months old). Both of my phones seem to get the "Cannot connect to the server" notice every now and then. Could use some help. Thanks

I can't access hotmail or gmail. I get the message "unable to connect to the server". However I can access both msn and google main page and not problems with other sites. Any ideas of what to do?

Cannot access hotmail or gmail, although no problems with the actual msn home page or other sites. I get the message: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at .....
== URL of affected sites ==
http://login.live.com; http://www.google.com

Hi thanks for reply.
No, not that I'm aware. How/Where can I check this?
The only think I've done recently is install a different antivirus program and uninstall the old one which had expired. Not sure if this is linked to the problem...?

"Server rejected the connection"

I have a rather simple problem (Oracle 8.1.5). I have created a DB, given my standard user all the access rights I can think of, I have created a service name in the Net8 Assistant, and I have created a ODBC DSN, but when I start my Access 2000, and choose to link through ODBC, I first get prompted for user name and password, and then I get a "... Server rejected the connection. (#12154) ... Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed (#0) ..." no matter what user name and password I enter.
I am pretty sure I am doing something very simple wrong, but I cannot find anything that can help me in the docs. Any suggestions?
This was sort of the first thing I wanted to make sure worked, that I could create a database and connect to it from ODBC, before I went on...

Yes, the listener is started, I can tnsping it, and the TEST function in the NET8 also says OK.
HOWEVER, I think I just found the problem. I had written the full service name "HDM.SEVENT" in the ODBC dialog box. Just now I tried to write just "HDM", and bingo! But thank you for your help anyway, Justin! It often helps just to talk with someone about a problem. :-)
