  • Software updater fails to connect to server. How can I fix?

    Software updater fails tp connect with the server. I have tried a restart and checked network connections and internet access. I have no problems connecting to internet, App Store and iTunes Store. Help!

    If you know what downloads to look for you get them from support.apple.com.  For example the 10.6.8 combo update v1.1 can be found here.
    The probelm is knowing what to look for and that's why softwere update comes in handy even if you don't want to have it do the downloads.  What's probably going on was that the servers looked by software update were either temporarily down, or as mentioned above, overloaded.  Wait a while and try it again.

  • Connection to server failed? Can not recieve my email? All other requests on my iPad are available?

    Cannot receive email?

    Start with this and see if it works. Close the mail app and then reboot your iPad.
    Tap the home button.
    Double tap the home button
    Tap and hold down on the mail icon in the recents tray
    Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the mail icon
    Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    i have a IPhone and its telling me that cannot get mail:the connection to server failed.
    what can i do?

    Hi beverly2066,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    You referenced the correct article for troubleshooting your issue with your email.  What happens when you follow these steps?
    Try these basic troubleshooting steps first
    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:
    Try a different Wi-Fi connection
    If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
    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.*
    Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Delete the affected email account from your device.
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Choose the affected email account, then tap Delete Account.
    Add your account again.
    Cheers,
    - Judy
