DROID X DOES NOT RETRIEVE EMAIL UNLESS POWERED OFF, THEN ON

I've identified through testing and confirmed that my 3 day old Droid X does NOT actually retrieve email from a third party (non Google) mail server WITHOUT having to power it down, then back up first. Activating the cute little manual retrieving spinning circle, in fact, does NOTHING.
I have tested this a MILLION times after not getting emails. MANUAL or SCHEDULED settings absolutely do not work.
I REPEAT, I do not receive email unless powered off then on
I set the the following to no avail:
* battery profile to "Performance"
* Data Delivery settings to "Background data" enabled
* Data roaming to enabled
* Email and Corporate Synch settings/Email delivery settings "Data Push" to enabled
* "Fetch Schedule" to EITHER "15 minutes" or "manual" (either of which shouldn't matter if Data Push is enabeled)
* Sync over WI-FI Only is disabled
Not retrieving email is critical to my business- I use a device for email more than I talk to anyone.
This constitutes a breech of service unless it is immediately rectified.
My Droid X was delivered as the following;
Version 1.13.604.MB810.Verizon.en.US
Firmware 2.1-update-1
Baseband Version BP_C_01.04P
Kernel Version 2.6.29 w30471@il93lnxdroid08 #1
Build Number VZW
ERI Version 5
PRL Version 51926

I Have had this Happen more than once Now i'll Be using my Wi-Fi Then when i shut it off on the X it does not want to Re- Connect with the Network at all. An i'm wondering if its beacause of a setting that i may have it on or maybee an App. Causing this issue
Has any one experienced this on there X
Now when i shut the X off an do the restart it's back on.
I don't use WiFi very often (work doesn't allow non work computers to connect, and at home I use my laptop), but I find at work that my phone sometimes doesn't want to connect to the Network when I walk into the building from the parking ramp (very spotty service on the ramp).
What I do to correct this without restarting, I turn on 'airplane' mode until I see the little airplane in the notification bar, then turn airplane mode off. Within a minute, the network is reconnected and working in 3g just fine.
Location is also part of the problem. I work on the first floor of the building. They are doing remodeling on my floor right now, so I am now on the top floor and have not had this happen since the move a month ago. Since my floor is below a hill with another building on top of the hill between my normal location and the closest tower, the line of sight is hidden, so I expect small problem with it. It doesn't happen all the time, but I do notice it when I try to run internet radio at work.

What is going on with POP email? I can NOT retrieve email unless...

What is going on with POP email? I can NOT retrieve email unless*...I reboot AND reset!* I POP 3 Comcast emails and my own URL email. Never any problems on Entourage. Hourly issues with my new iPhone—and it's only been 4 days.
This is *unbelievably frustrating* and negates why I got the dang thing in the first place.
Does anyone have a work around? Is this a known bug (Apple) or am I missing something?
+*Plus as a side note I think there are too many clicks into the In Box. Just a usability thing I wish I could set myself.+

I have the same problem intermittently... Every so often, the iPhone goes into a mode where email just doesn't work until i shut down and reboot... Then it works fine...
Its not always the case, but I can't isolate the scenario which causes it to go into this weird mode...

My outlook for MAC does not upload emails unless I hit send/receive. This is even when I leave it open for period of time. I want it to upload anytime a email comes. How?

My Outlook for Mac does not upload emails unless I hit send/receive even though it is left open. How do I change the schedule?

Outlook is a Microsoft product, there is a forum specifically for Office for Mac's at:

Mail does not retrieve emails

My Mail has two acct (mac.com and an exchange acct). This morning, Mail suddenly stops retrieving new emails from the exchange acct. (mac.com acct works fine). I know it tries, since the dailing spin spins. But seems it has hard time connecting to the server and fetching new emails. Activity viewer shows "logging in as user ..." and "sync.. with server" working.
Checked with our sys adm, the server is fine. I can access my acct via web client.
Help please! I have been using Mail for a few years and don't want to give up.
HW

You’re welcome.
> I'm afraid that the size of the mailbox is pretty big. I checked
~/Library/Mail/exchange-acct, which is about 6GB.
OK. That may be the problem then. The overall size of the account folder is not an issue, but individual mailboxes should be under 2 GB in Mail 2.x (the limit was even lower in Mail 1.x).
You may use the Account Info window to check how much size each mailbox takes up on the server — choose Get Info (⌘I) from the Action menu (gear icon) located below the mailbox list in the main Mail window.
Check that none of your mailboxes is larger than 2 GB. Create custom mailboxes on the server and re-organize your mail there however you wish via webmail if necessary.
When done, you may want to re-create Mail’s index and cached mailbox contents as follows (and this may certainly take a while given the size of the account):
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see any other “Envelope Index”-named file there, delete it as well.
4. Move any “IMAP-”, “Mac-”, or “Exchange-” account folders to the Trash. Note that you can do this with IMAP-type accounts because they store mail on the server and Mail can easily re-create them. DON’T trash any “POP-” account folders, as that would cause all mail stored there to be lost.
5. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index — Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
6. As a side effect of having removed the IMAP account folders, those accounts may be in an “offline” state now. Do Mailbox > Go Online to bring them back online.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

Can send but not retrieve emails using Thunderbird and Windows 8.1

Hi, I am not able to get Thunderbird to retrieve emails on a new laptop.
Last week I purchased a new laptop due to an imminent hard disk failure on my old laptop. I will call them "Old" and "New" laptops. (Old laptop is still working for the moment...)
The Old laptop is nearly 3 years old, and I have been using Thunderbird on it since new without any problems.
I have downloaded and installed Thunderbird on the New laptop, and can not get it to retrieve emails.
As the Old laptop is still working (at the moment), I am able to directly visually compare and check settings on both computers.
THE PROBLEM
Using Thunderbird on the New laptop, I am able to send emails, I can see all my old emails restored from the Old laptop using Mozbackup, but clicking Get Mail on the New laptop does not retrieve new
emails.
When I click Get Mail, the status message in the bottom left corner says "connected to .....<ISP>..." but does not actually get the emails. However, the Old laptop is still able to get emails as it always has.
My ISP is a large Australian telco that I have used for many years and I have not changed anything with my account. The ISP is POP3.
WHAT HAVE I TRIED
I deleted the email account created by restoring from Mozbackup, and attempted using the Thunderbird new account wizard, however Thunderbird did not recognise my ISP and would not create the account - even though it is working perfectly at the same time on the Old laptop.
All Firewalls I can find have been configured to allow Thunderbird, with the same configuration settings on both machines.
How do I know I can send but not Get emails from Thunderbird on the New laptop?
I have sent test emails to myself from the New laptop. Thunderbird sends successfully, I am able to preview the test emails via Mailwasher on the New laptop, and can read, reply, etc, to the emails if I log into my ISP webmail service. However I can NOT get Thunderbird to retrieve and download these emails on the New laptop. If I go to the Old laptop, Thunderbird works perfectly, retrieves and downloads all new emails, including these test emails.
I am now at the point where I do not know what else to try and would appreciate any suggestions.....
I have spent many hours over the last 3 days surfing the net, forums, Mozilla Support, etc, and tried everything suggested, without success. The only thing I have NOT tried is starting windows in Safe mode (as per some suggestions), as it is not a viable long term solution.
OTHER INFO
Computer Details;-
"Old" laptop;-
Windows 7 Home Premium - continuously updated with all Critical and Important updates. 64 bit version.
Antivirus = Bitdefender Total Security (subscription and licensed). Up to date.
MailwasherPro 2012 (subscription and licensed). Up to date.
Thunderbird 24.5.0 working perfectly. Up to date.
"New" laptop;-
Windows 8.1 - up to date with all Critical and Important updates. 64 bit version.
Antivirus = Bitdefender Total Security (subscription and licensed) - downloaded and installed. Up to date.
MailwasherPro 2012 (subscription and licensed) - downloaded and installed. Up to date.
Thunderbird 24.5.0 - downloaded and installed.
Note: I 'downloaded and installed' the Windows 8.1 version of these programs to avoid any potential compatibility problems restoring or copying from a Windows 7 backup version of the programs.
1) New laptop came with pre-installed with McAfee - which has been Uninstalled due to running Bitdefender (Windows searches for 'McAfee' return nothing found suggesting the Uninstall was successful).
2) Thunderbird has been added to both Bitdefender and Windows 8.1 firewalls on the New laptop.
3) Bitdefender and Windows security settings are identical on both laptops - as near as I can determine, I may be missing something - but have checked all settings 3 times by doing a side-by-side visual comparison.
4) Thunderbird settings are also identical and I am using the same email address and ISP that I have been using for many years.
5) I migrated Thunderbird settings, accounts and emails from the Old laptop to the New laptop using Mozbackup, then visually checked and compared all settings in Thunderbird between the two machines.
6) For info, I have used Mailwasher for many years as a simple way to preview and wash mail before running email programs such as Thunderbird - might be overkill, but I have also never had a virus or malware problem, so will keep doing this.
7) I have Uninstalled and re-installed Thunderbird on the New laptop twice, and done the same with Bitdefender once.
8) Any config changes I try on the New laptop, I either restart Thunderbird and / or restart the New laptop, or both.
9) I have not created a Windows 8.1 account and am not using SkyDrive.
10) Only other software I have installed on the New laptop is Google Chrome, Office Home 2013 and iTunes - all are working.
Thanks in advance....

Well there is not much left. If telnet works then the path is clear and there is no hardware firewall blocking ports.
All that is left is software, so try windows safe mode with networking. A very handy way to eliminate software. it also actually disables most anti virus resident features and is preferred here because anti virus/security programs do not always disable or turn off when they say they have.
You might also try the McAfee removal tool. https://community.mcafee.com/thread/52788 I notice the rep said yes to both, they did not say not required.
Finally you could try creating a new profile, and see if it works just to exclude corruption of your existing profile. ( I doubt it but I am at the anything goes point)
Just as an aside, I have never had an email borne nasty and I for many years never even had an email virus scanner. So yes I think your a bit over cautious with mailwasher, if that is what your using it for. Thunderbird does not support scripting languages or flash, or most plugins in the email sandbox. The result is getting a virus from a mail in Thunderbird is really only possible, for all practical purposes, if you open that password protected zip from the young Russian woman and that is what the anti virus should be blocking anyway when the temp file is written.

2007 outlook locks up or does not retrieve mail

Hi,
I am not a computer person, so please bear with me. I have recently been experiencing problems with 2007 Outlook.
It will just spin with the message "connecting to server". A full reboot is required to end this. It also doesn't always retrieve emails unless the computer is rebooted. I have recently turned off an add-in or two and deleted
most of the large emails I had saved to make room. I found an RSS feed that I did not know I had and deleted that. What else can I do? This just started happening over the past two weeks. I ran malware software and Norton, with
nothing more than cookies and PUP file that I deleted. What else should I do? Seems to work fine when you start it in safe mode.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Nick

Hi,
Since this issue not persists in safe mode, it means a problematic add-in caused this problem. Please disable all add-ins you installed to check the result. To do this, go to Tool > Trust Center > Add-ins…
Also temporarily turn off your Norton and other security programs to check the result.

Since 7.1.2 mail does NOT retrieve mail in background and notify

After updating to ios 7.1.2 and having to do a complete reset and restore from backup, mail does NOT retrieve mail and notify me that a new message has arrived.
In the past (and with every version of the OS until 7.1.2) mail would vibrate when a new message arrived - I did not have to open the mail app and wait for the download.
What is the fix? In the past, mail was not in notification center - I don't want to see a badge or other on screen listing of the message that has arrived, only have the phone vibrate when a new message arrives.
Thanks.

Of course - have an open case with Apple support as well. Co-workers are receiving notifications, IOW, when mail is received their phone will buzz (if in silent or vibrate mode) or ding or similar.
I have to actually open the mail app and only then will it grab email and 'notify' me it's been received.
And yes, configuration is set to push - meaning the e-mail server will push it out to the clients immediately,

ZEN 4GB does not power on unless plugged with lapt

I bought a new creative zen(4GB) a week back.
I charged it fully for 5 hrs and then tested it by playing a few songs and videos.
I switched it off and tried to power it on after around 5 hrs but it did not respond.
When i connected it to the laptop again...it got powered on. After that i removed it from laptop and again played a couple of songs.
If i power it on after short intervals...it works...but if i power it on after 2-4 hrs it does not power on unless docked to the laptop and this is a recurring feature.
Please, respond in case someone has faced such a thing or could give some idea.
Thanks.

I would use recovery mode, do a format of the player and then upgrade the firmware if you have not already upgraded. The format eliminates any possibly corruption (which can cause shut down and battery performance issues) and it also resets the player settings... the later firmware versions definitely have better battery and charging performance in my experience (current for the ZEN 2/4/8/6/32 is .20.02)
If it still happens after that then it may be a defect. It does happen - and support can help you get a warranty replacement in that situation. Even though it seems like the forums are always flooded with problems you have to keep in mind the massi've number that don't have any issues and never have any reason to visit here (so in other words keep the chin up, if you do have to get a replacement don't panic).

Does it mean i cant run MC.9 in background.

Mail does not send email

My problem is simply that Mail does not send email.
I have just migrated from iMac G5 to iMac Intel by using Migration Assistant. Everything else works just fine and I can receive email. However, if I try to reply, forward or send a new email message, Mail just does not do anything - no error message, nothing.
The fixes I have tried so far are removing the Mail plist file, repairing disk permissions and mailboxes. Of course, I have checked the account settings, especially outgoing server settings. I also reinstalled Mail application with Pacifist. None of this has solved the problem. I have tried sending email with Thunderbird and it works with no problems.
Does anybody have any suggestions how to fix this issue?
The OS is 10.4.8, Mail Version 2.0.6 (749.2/752.3), all the suggested software updates done.
iMac Core Duo 20" 2GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Reinstalling Mail is rarely necessary or appropriate to solve a problem. It certainly cannot fix anything that could be wrong within your home folder or at the server or with the network, and may even introduce new issues if not done properly. Moreover, in Mac OS X 10.4 you don’t need Pacifist to reinstall Mail, you could also do it as described in the following article:
Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, if the version of the system software on your install disks is earlier than what you’re using now (and only in that case), then you must also reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, to bring Mail back in sync with the rest of the system:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
The above won’t solve the problem. It’s just to ensure that you’ve properly reinstalled Mail, which you shouldn’t have done, and which apparently you didn’t do properly -- the version of Mail on your system should be 2.1.1, not 2.0.6.
The original problem could be caused by some Launch Services cache or preferences corruption. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services -- the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
Resetting Launch Services
If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, this other article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you wish.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart the computer.

Function Previous() does not retrieve good values

Hello Forum,
I'm using BO XIR2, Desktop Intelligence.
I'm displaying some quantities and turnover by month and I try to compute the % of increase/decrease between a month and the previous month. The report looks like that :
.........................Jan......%.......Feb........%.......March........%.......Apr
Quantity...............10..................15........50.............16........-6
Turnover............. 3.5....................4........14............3.9.....-2.5
I use fonction Previous to compute the % of discrepancy. For example, for quantity : % = (qty-Previous(qty))/Previsous(qty)
My problem : for some months, the Previous(function) does not retrieve the value of the previous month. It usually adds 1 or 2 to the value of the previous month.
Does anyone face the same problem ?
Best Regards

Hi,
try sorting your data in the SQL query based using the month number (ascending).
