E71 Mail for Exchange problem

I've set up a few of these adn had no problems but yesterday I set up 3 off E71-b exactly the same as always and all now have the same problem:  when powering on you get the message "allow to send and receive......" answering "yes" then gives "testing network" and then then the Email setup wizard starts again. If you then cancel the Wizard the phone synchs properly with Head Office's Exchange Server.   It means the users have to exit teh wizard at evry start-up.    Any help would be much appreciated.

Guys -- I had the same problem but I think I figured it out. Menu>MfE>Mail for Exchange>Content synced> Synchronize Calendar (choose yes, ditto Contacts and Tasks)>then follow the stupid menu logic that doesn’t actually save any changes unless you save each individual change or something and finally choose “in case of conflict server always wins”> and double check to make sure it is always looking for changes. I tested it with new calendar and contact entries on my corp. mail account and they showed up almost immediately on the e71.
 Cripes. Good luck.

  • N8 Mail for Exchange problem continues

    I have PR1.2 and software version 014.002 on my UK O2 N8.
    I was promised the recent firmware upgrade would resolve my on going Hotmail/Mail for Exchange problems. After an indeterminate time MfE on the N8 stops replicating mail and calendar with my hotmail account.
    I still have my old 5800 set up and this never fails to replicate with hotmail so I know it's not a Microsoft or my configuration problem. As soon as I delete the settings on the N8 and recreate them it works fine for a while.
    I use my hotmail/windows live for arranging appointments via the calendar so this issue is really naffing me off. Does anyone know of a resolution to this issue?
    In the logs it reports
    03/05/2011 16:47:35 PING Command Requested
    03/05/2011 16:47:39 Error occurred during Ping.
    03/05/2011 16:47:39 Exception during Ping.
    when the failures start so I guess for some reason it's unable to ping the hotmail server for some reason, this occurs if it's over any wifi or the phone network, but works fine initially

    I have this problem too. After a period of working fine MfE just stops working on my N8. Deleting the account and setting it up again used to work but now even this doesn;t seem to work and I cannot synch with my work exchange server.
    Did you find a fix?

  • E71 Mail for Exchange System Error, try again late...

    Hi,
    Please Help!
    I installed MfE 2.7 on my E71, but whenever I try to sync my email and calender, I get a system error.
    It begins to sync the email but after that it doesn't sync the calender and I get the system error. Also each time it tries to sync emails, it retrieves all the mail each time.
    If I sync only the calender, it retrieves all the items and I get a system error. I've pasted the admin log below.
    27/10/2008 10:17:42 start Email sync
    27/10/2008 10:17:53 sync died (11), collection=Email activity=handling commands from server
    27/10/2008 10:22:36 PING Command Requested
    27/10/2008 10:22:42 start Email sync
    27/10/2008 10:23:01 sync died (47), collection=Email activity=handling commands from server
    Does anyone know how to solve this?

    OK - like many on the copius web discussions on this Nokia E71 model/MfE topic I have been getting terminally frustrated with an otherwise great phone.
    A trawl through the websites gave me lots of things to try, but most didn't work.
    Our large corporate IT dept also were left scratching their heads, and resorted to a full reset, which cured the problem briefly, but as with others' experience it soon returned (also having to fully reconfig is a pain in the proverbial). Things suggested on the discussion sites like disabling Tasks synch, or Secure Connection didn't have any effect.
    The fact that most others with the same phone on our system hadn't experienced the problem seemed to hint at it not being a server issue, but something more localised. The apparent fact that 'Emails' did synch OK, but that the process hung on 'Calendar' synch suggested it was a Calendar issue
    One post mentioned issues with no-finish-date recurring appointments in Calendar, so I investigated these. I found that one or two had no end date, so I gave these items one.
    But interestingly, I also found a high proportion of appointments that had been created last year (09) had end dates like 'Wed 31/03/00' when clearly 'Wed 31/03/10' was intended - was this an odd default in Calendar, or just careless typing? The consequences were that Calendar was possibly wrestling with numerous recurring appts with either 100-year durations, or possibly just hanging on the date confusion - is '00' before or after '10'?.
    Therefore, as a precaution, I checked all my recurring appts like this (the procedure may vary according to your browser):-
    - In Calendar, open each recurring appt in turn;
    - Open the series, not just the individual appointment;
    - Check 'Recurrence';
    - Check that an 'End By' date is there, and that it is not '00';
    - Click OK;
    - Click OK again if warned about exceptions;
    - Cick 'Save & Close'.
    Do this to absolutely all recurring appointments in your Calendar.
    Then do a full resynch (Menu/MfE/Synch Mode/Full Resynch etc).
    I didn't hold much hope of any effect, but Lo!, it did work, and now Emails, Contacts, Tasks, and Calendar all synch fine so far, using Menu/MfE/Mail for Exchange/Options/Synchronise.
    I hope this works for others...let me know if it does.

  • E71 mail for exchange Error

    I am setting up a Nokia E71 phone for exchange mail via the mail for exchange application on the Nokia all settings appear to be fine however when i try to sync email in the log i see an error "Server requires secure connection change profile >connection > secure connection yes"
    The connection is already specified to be secure.

    I'm also struggling to setup Exchange on my E71.
    I'm currently looking to do software updates (I'm using software 211) and hoping the problems go away in the new cell software.
    I put in all the settings, and it just fails to connect, yet, when we check our logs (Linux) we can see the phone making connection.
    Thoughts?

  • E72 Mail for Exchange problem

    On reaction of the thread of qazcorp (E72 mail for exchange) here a new request for myself...
    As in that thread I've found two users who have the same problem.
    Lost tekst when sending or forwarding email from the E72 by use of Mail for Exchange.
    So far I've tried...
    - Firmware update (no success)
    - New install of latest Firmware without backup (no success)
    - Tested same installation on a E71 (works fine)
    Other E72 or E71 users aren't having these problems.
    So far I'm guessing it's a software error, but the new installation without using a backup is contradicting that conclusion.
    Requested information so far...
    - They are both running an E72
    - Exchange 2003 SP2
    We configure the telephones to synchronise only the last two weeks. This results in: 100~200 mails on the phone.
    We synch using Vodafone-GPRS data-connection.
    Additional requested information will follow... (E72 Productcode, E72 Firmwareversion & Mail for Exchange version)

    I have had exactly the same problem with all previous versions of firmware, connecting to Exchange 2003, SP2
    I am currently running:
    -Product code: 0595585
    -Firmware: 054.005
    -Custom version: 054.005.275.04
    -Mail for Exchange version: 2.2.0
    I have tried all the same solutions as DCBertisen (software update, new install without backup).
    I had tested the same installation with roadsync on symbian, roadsync on android, native exchange on android and windows mobile, and all of these work fine.
    I have now moved to Exchange 2010, and it appears (touch wood) that I no longer am having these problems. However, I have only been using Exchange 2010 for 3 weeks, so I fear they may happen again.

  • Mail for exchange problem / N97mini.

    Now three months I encounter difficulties with integrated email client of my N97 mini. I create and use only mail for exchange profile, no IMAP no POP3, for reading, writing messages and synchronizing contacts, calendar to-do list with webmail server of my company.
    Exact problem:
     - stop regular synchronizing inbox folder when synch is done once. It is necessary phone to be restarted and then inbox can be updated.
     - stop regular synchronizing subfolders unless phone is restarted and then can be updated once until next restart
     - stop regular synchronizing sent folder, contacts, calendar, to-do list. Phone restart hot helps, it has to be removed mailbox and to be created it again then during initial synch everything going well.
    There is no matter if the synchronizing is set to “always on”, “manual” or some interval time.
    If phone soft is reinstalled or hard reset is performed then after creating a mailbox the problem is going to be resolved for first 10-15 minutes or sometime up to couple of hours and after that appears again.
    In our company we use Nokia E52, N97 mini, E71, E72 but only people with N97 mini faced this problem. (People with E71 use installed Mail for Exchange 3.0, people with E52 and E72 used build-in mail client to create mail for exchange profile like us people with N97 mini)
    As I wrote this problem appeared three months ago without any obvious reason. No phone update, no company mail server update.
    I will appreciate any suggestion and thank you in advance. 

    Just for clarification soft is v.30.0.004

  • E71, mail for exchange, emails not being deleted

    Hello, I have an E71 on which I have configured mfE to sync with my company's exchange server. I've set emails to sync the last 3 days and calendar entries last 2 weeks. However, emails and calendar entries which are older than 3 days/2 weeks are not deleted from the phone. It keeps everything until finally it stops syncing and gives me a "system error, please try later". I'm thinking it is because the device becomes full or something like that. Doing a full resync resolves the problem, although it would be nice to have it working properly.

    Hi az1987,
    How often do u face this error on ur device screen?
    what is the frimware on the device*#0000#)
    what is the version of mail for exchange ? (this u can get from ABOUT of mfe)
    You said 'it stops syncing' when does this happen?
    please revert me back on the above queries so i can work out on this?
    by the way do u face this problem when u try retrieving all maisl instead of only 3days older?
    If this post helped... Add some kudos!!

  • N97 Mail for Exchange problem

    So, after my previous MfE disaster (it deleted all the contacts from my Exchange server, subsequently I was unable to get into MfE settings to change anything) I decided to reset the phone and start from scratch. I reset it using the code *#7370# which I found on this forum. It seemd to work, the phone behaved exactly as it did from the box. I got it started and downloaded the Messaging app. At the end of this process it gave me an error message "installation failed" but immediately then went into mailbox setup, showed another "preparing for installation" message and then went through the steps for setup.
    The problem is that when I get to selecting "Mail for Exchange" as the type of mail I want to set up I get a message that there are too many accounts of this type already on the device (obviously there are none) and won't proceed.
    I have repeated the whole thing twice from hard-resetting the phone onwards, and still get the same problem. I have looked in the file manager for any thing which look like old config files but can find none.
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks jg72 - that's certainly interesting.  It does kinda make sense with you saying that, to a degree - but still a little strange?!  I've managed to fix it myself last night before I read your post (so I think?!) by simply downloading the MfE .sis for it at:  http://www.businesssoftware.nokia.com/mail_for_exc​hange_downloads.php
    The N97 isn't listed, and N96 install as mentioned earlier in this post throw an error on my phone saying it's not compatible - so I downloaded the .sis for the Nokia 5800 (ExpressMusic) - since it's the only other phone I know with the S60 5th Edition OS on it.  I seem to now get further, and am able to configure the settings for push email!!!  It was the "Nokia Email" app (different to MfE) that was given issues, and my "Mail For Exchange" folder was empty?  I don't know if this was right with my handset being brand new out-of-the-box, but after installing the MfE .sis - I can now configure the server settings.
    Now I need to speak to my administrator about what the settings should be !!! 
    Good luck everyone else having issues - hope this all helps you!

  • E63 Mail for Exchange problem

    I've tried to load Mail for Exchange from Ovi on my E63, but get the message 'installation failed' each time I try. I've searched on here and notice that others seem to have the same problem. Anyone able to help?
    Thanks

    did you go back to factory settings, install MFE 3.0 en start from scratch?? that usually wil solve the problem.
    think about making a back up first.
    If you reinstall but the bug is still in the phone, the problem remains. thats why it is best to make a clean phone and go from there

  • Major Mail for Exchange problem

    Hi
    I have installed Mail for Exchange (v2.09) on my Nokia N96, which has the latest software update (20.050).
    My problem relates to the initial synchronisation process. Having inputed all of the relevant information (server/username/password/domain name etc), the current status shows that MfE is connected, and remains like this for anything up to 30 seconds, before changing to 'Idle'
    A check on the Last sync log then reveals the message 'Connection error. Try again later' and a further check in the Mail for Exchange mailbox (in Messaging) subsequently reveals that no e-mail messages have been downloaded.
    I have checked with the IT Department at the company I work for and they have assured me that they have 'Direct Push over HTTP' enabled and I have also installed the relevant SSL certificate and checked the trust settings are correct.
    The company uses Outlook Web Access and have active sync working. I have even tried connecting a few different ways, including contract WAP and my home WLAN network as well as my regular contract internet.
    Any ideas please?? 

    Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, I am already using the new version of Mail for Exchange that supposedly includes a fix (v2.09). I have also tried syncing my folders individually but to no avail. I've double checked the settings with my IT department and they all seem to be correct, but I am still receiving the 'Correction error. Try again later' message after attempting to sync.

  • Activesync / mail for exchange problem

    Hi,
    I have Exchange 2003 and activesync running for mobile devices. I have Nokia e70 which has mail for exchange in it. Phones memory went full and it gave error "

  • New E72 Mail for exchange problem--end of emails c...

    Hello,
    As I can't seem to find anyone who is having this problem, I thought I'd start a new thread.
    We are running 5 E72s (T-Mobile UK customised firmware version 031.023), using Mail for Exchange with Exchange 2003 sp2. Since updating to 031.023 from 021.024 (022.007 wasn't realised for T-Mobile UK product code), Mail for Exchange has basically worked okay (finally!!), but we've noticed that it sometimes cuts off the ends of emails, which has a major negative business impact. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any ideas on how to solve it?
    In the meantime, we've switched to running Roadsync, which is less elegant (and much slower) than Mail for Exchange, but has the advantage of basically working.
    Many thanks,
    Paul

    I have had exactly the same problem with all previous versions of firmware, connecting to Exchange 2003, SP2
    I am currently running:
    -Product code: 0595585

    -Custom version: 054.005.275.04

  • E71 - Mail for exchange syncs calendar only partly

    I'm pretty new to using the Mail for Exchange (latest version from Ovi) application in my E71, had a 3rd party software that handled pim sync before.
    Any how, the company has moved from Lotus Notes to Microsoft Exchange 2010 and in that process migrated data from Notes to Exchange. For some reason the Mail for Exchange application syncs only entrys changed or created in Exchange, older entrys migrated from Notes unchanged wont show up in the handset.
    I have verified with handsets from other vendors that this is not an server/active sync error, fore example Apples iPhone will sync every entry. How come, anyone has any ideas?

    Go to OVI store on your E71 and download Mail for Exchange.
    ‡Thank you for hitting the Blue/Green Star button‡

  • N8 Mail for Exchange – problems with date separato...

    key points are highlighted by bold text
    Hi,
    I'm using my Nokia N8-00 for one month now and everything works fine except three issues I discovered using Mail for Exchange. Two weeks ago I contacted our domain/mail hoster to set up a MS Exchange account for me.
    Setting up the account on my N8-00 worked as expected, but after a detailed look I found some problems concerning the date separator (normally set in the settings of the clock-application) and the synchronizing of anniversaries.
    To be sure the sources of the problems are not produced by the server I set up the Mail for Exchange (newest available version of Mail for Exchange via Ovi-Store – 3.00(50)) account on my N82. Comparisons to my N82 are mentioned below.
    My first problem with Mail for Exchange on my N8 is that the date separator is switched from . (point) to – (minus) automatically. I'm pretty sure this issue depends on the N8’s Mail for Exchange, cause it only happens in the peak-time (off-peak is set to sync manually). The strange thing is that I cannot trace back this occurrence – it just happens randomly in the peak-period.
    On my N82 this problem doesn’t occur. Additionally the support employee at my mail hoster told me he is using an E-Series (Mail for Exchange 2.07) device without having this issue.
    Is there a workaround or a fix coming for this issue? Is there anybody else having this issue?
    Now coming to the second issue I sustain using Mail for Exchange on the N8-00. Some of my contacts that are synced to my device get the wrong date of birth displayed in the device. Upon contacts where this problem occurs the date of birth is displayed one day earlier than set in Outlook.
    I found out that this issue only happens to contacts born prior to 198* (* between 1 to 4 – sorry not sure about the exact date). One example is the date 02.10.1978, which is displayed as 01.10.1978 in my phone. Even if I set up a new test-contact with this date of birth it is displayed wrong in my phone!
    But it doesn’t happen to all birthdates prior to 198*. And also on this issue I’m not sure where it’s coming from.
    This problem doesn’t happen on my N82 and the E-Series device mentioned above.
    Last but not least the third issue which in a way is similar to the one above but doesn’t happen in the contacts application. Birthdays which are automatically entered as all-day-series in the calendar by Outlook aren’t synced to the device as birthday events (as Ovi-Suite does). Sometimes they aren’t even all-day events – they have a starting time at midnight and an end time at midnight the next day.
    If I change those events to real all-day-birthday-events in the calendar app of my N8-00 they are synced back to my Outlook one day prior to their real date – sounds familiar, huh?
    To be sure these issues are not produced by me in any curious way I made sure that every birthday-event in Outlook is an automatically entered event. Additionally I checked the time zones and the date-separator of Exchange via Outlook Web Access and on my phone – they are both set to GMT +1 and the date is set to dd.mm.yyyy.
    What makes me angry is that those issues don’t happen to my older device.
    Please help me to fix these problems!
    Greetings
    Lars

    I am having ongoing problems with Hotmail and my N8's Mail for Exchange. I have all the latest firmware updates from Nokia, that as I understand it was supposed to fix the problem, it hasn't. I've even done a hard reset on the phone, which lost a ton of stuff that my service provider had installed
    Hotmail via MfE works for a couple of days then stops connecting and refuses to update mail or calendar entries, I then delete the account and recreate it and it all works again for a couple of days. I know this isn't a problem with Hotmail as my Nokia 5800 works perfectly with its MfE.
    This is spoiling what is otherwise a good phone as it's a main feature for me as I use the calendar in Hotmail to organise my meetings etc.
