Email message won't download from server since installing IOS7

Some of my emails both on my iPad and iPhone won't download from server since installing IOS7!

I'm having the same problem with both my iPhone and iPad after installing iOS7.  Checked all the settings and spoke to my email  provider and everything is set up properly.  It's hit or miss which messages don't download from the server too.  And occasionally, a message that does download to my iPad, won't download on my iPhone.  Everything on my PC downloads properly, it just seems to be an ios7 issue as this wasn't a problem before.  My wife uses the same email provider and is still on iOS6.x with no issues.  Any help or suggestions would be great.

  • Email messages won't download on Mac Pro but do download on iPhone.

    Email messages won't download to Mac Pro but do download on iPhone 5. I've made no changes in the settings on added any updates, etc. When I "check for new mail" I hear an ping - a tone I normally don't get but no messages appear. Thanks in advance for an help you can give.

    I had to call Apple Support for resolution. I'm not entirely clear on the origin of the problem but it seems that the server name(s) for Apple Mail were changed by Yahoo. It took a considerable time to correct but a senior advisor at Apple pulled it through.
    Thank you all for your suggestions.

  • Mail won't download from server

    I downloaded the new software on my iPhone 4 and installed it.  Now my yahoo mail won't download from the server.  I rebooted, deleted the mail account and reinstalled, and restored the software too.  Any ideas?

    Not knowing what’s really going on here, and since re-creating Envelope Index apparently didn’t work, you may try setting up Mail again from scratch, as follows:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/. Move (not copy) the entire Mail folder out of there, to the Desktop.
    3. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop.
    4. Open Mail and set it up again from scratch. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and check that everything works fine.
    You’ll have to re-configure all your settings in Mail > Preferences. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
    5. If Mail works fine now, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, and follow the instructions to import your mail from the old Mail folder that’s now on the Desktop. Import the Mailboxes folder first, then each of the POP-username@mailserver account folders.
    As a result of doing the above, some messages may be duplicated now. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that may help to fix that.
    Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move the messages anywhere you wish and get rid of the imported mailboxes afterwards.
    If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
    Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • Message not being downloaded from server

    When I download mt emails from my SBS2011 server (Exchange 2010) I can see the first four line of the message, but when I click on the message to read the whole text, I am getting a message : The message has not been downloaded from the server.
    can anyonme tell me what needs to be done to get the messages down

    I have the same problem when downloading emails from an exchange server connected using activesync.  I figured if the symbol "&" is anywhere in the Subject line, the email content does not get downloaded to the iphone or iPad.  The interesting point is that on Android handsets the same issue exists except the body of the message is downloaded to the handset but any attachements dissapear.  So, this problem must be related to MS Exchange.

  • FOUND SOLUTION TO EMAIL ISSUE - "message not downloaded from server"

    It took me 4 days to figure it out but there is a solution to the problem "the messsage has not been downloaded from server" and "the message has no content".
    I do not have to set up "push" accounts from yahoo or gmail and it works with my corporate email.
    Apple can reach me at <Message was edited by: Host> to discuss this issue.

    I'm not a computer technician, and if you were to give me a few days looking at the problem, i'm sure I or anyone else could provide a solution. I'm not too bothered about the message appearing 50% of the time as i'm usually within easy reach of a Laptop or PC or can find another method to get access to my email.
    So i'm not pi**ed off that you have found a solution. I'm just trying to obtain information for a post that says "FOUND SOLUTION TO EMAIL ISSUE - "message not downloaded from server" in the Apple HELP FORUMS...

  • Some Email cannot be downloaded from server

    After 5 years, I have recently(over the last two weeks) cannot download some of the emails I receive to my POP account. It's weird. I boot my computer up I see my emails with attachments, photos, etc. and Then when I revisit some of the emails they show this message: THE MESSAGE FROM (EMAIL ADDRESS) CONCERNING "MESSAGE" HAS NOT BEEN DOWNLOADED FROM THE SERVER. YOU NEED TO TAKE THIS ACCOUNT ONLINE IN ORDER TO DOWNLOAD IT. Sometimes all messages default to this and sometimes only a few.
    Does anyone know what this is and how to correct it?
    Thanks,

    Hello Frank.
    These messages have been downloaded from the server.
    The error message is incorrect which does not indicate what the actual error and problem is.
    This error message indicates an "overstuffed" mailbox issue which means the mailbox has approached or exceeded the recommended mailbox size limit or the mailbox has some corruption.
    All email clients have limits and the recommended mailbox size limit with Jaguar and Panther Mail is 1 GB and for Tiger Mail, 2 GB.
    An "overstuffed" mailbox issue can occur at any mailbox size but is more likely to occur depending on the number and size of message attachments contained in a mailbox and especially when a Jaguar or Panther mailbox approaches or exceeds 1 GB in size.
    This has all but been eliminated with Tiger Mail which uses a different mailbox filing format and structure than is used with previous Mail.app versions.
    In addition, since an account's Inbox mailbox is usually the most active mailbox and more prone to corruption over time, it is not a good idea to use an account's Inbox mailbox as the final storage location for all received messages not deleted that you need or want to save. This is what user created "On My Mac" location mailboxes can and should be used for.
    With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > INBOX.mbox.
    Move the INBOX.mbox to the Desktop.
    Launch Mail and a new INBOX.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the account named folder.
    This will allow the Mail.app to function properly again and not risk losing any new messages downloaded/received by this account while working on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop to try to recover the existing messages.
    Control-click on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop and at the menu window that appears, select Show Package Contents.
    List the package content file names and size of each.

  • How to fix message not downloaded from server

    Hello everyone,
    My name is Joshua Kahley, and I am an IT technician in charge of handeling email related issues in my company.  We host our own web and email server and since the I-OS 7 update we have had a problem where many messages cannot be retrieved from our email server.  I confirmed with my own phone that this issue did not exist prior to I-OS 7, messages that displayed fine before were no longer be readable on I-OS 7 when i upgraded.
    The error message I recieve is "This message has not been downloaded from the server"
    I'm not sure if this is a problem that can be solved on the phone itself as I have tried changing numerous settings.  Has anything changed with the way I-OS 7 handles IMAP messages that my require us to change settings on our server?  No other email provider has this issue as far as I can tell; in addition, all of our customers have the same issue (they all have their email through our servers)
    If anyone has any insight into this I would greatly appriciate it.
    ~Joshua Kahley

    No fix, but I found a work-around for a single message that iOS email refuses to download at http://www.bitcraft.com.au/iphone-mail-app-says-this-message-has-not-been-downlo aded-from-server/
    that reads:
    ...here’s a quick fix… Forward the message. Just click Forward and it will ask you “Download rest of message first?”. Say yes and then you will see the old message quoted in the forward. Now if only Apple would make than an option without having to ‘fake’ forward it…
    The above worked for me when I encountered "This message has not been downloaded from server” on my iPad 3 running iOS 7.1.1.

  • Mail from one email address won't download

    Emails from one particular email address won't download into Mail for my [email protected] account. Email from everyone else comes in fine. I can see his mail in webmail and on my iPhone, but not in Mail. It comes through to my yahoo address but not my main address. Here are the headers from one of his emails, hopefully someone will have an idea how to fix this.

    Paula,
    I sent two different photos. The same photo has been placed in both boxes.
    Ray

    It's not the images that aren't downloading, it's the entire email. His email just doesn't show up in Mail, like it was never sent at all.
    I access [email protected] through Mail app.
    Not sure about winmail.dat... and not sure what program he uses to send mail.
    Some of his mail gets through, some doesn't. Doesn't seem to be any reason. It's not always emails with attachments that don't get through. Sometimes it's just a plain text email that doesn't get through.
    Thanks,
    Paula

  • Message "not downloaded from server. You need to take this account online

    After upgrading to 10.4.9, when I click on any of the old emails in my inbox I get the message "this message not downloaded from server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
    I can still read all email in any other mailbox.
    I can read all email received after upgrading.
    I appreciate any help.
    G4 17 inch   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   1 gb ram

    You upgraded to 10.4.9 from what?
    If you upgraded from Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier, the problem is that the conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken. Take a look at the following thread to better understand the problem:
    Help! "You need to take this account online in order to download it."
    More specifically, if this is a POP account, the following procedure should allow you to fix the Inbox problem. A similar procedure should allow you to fix other mailboxes that might also be affected:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to fix the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
    3. Create a new folder on the Desktop and name it however you wish (e.g. Inbox Old). It doesn’t need to have an .mbox extension.
    4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/.
    5. Move the files mbox and Incoming_Mail out of INBOX.mbox, into the Inbox Old folder just created on the Desktop. These files contain all the messages that were in the mailbox before the upgrade to Tiger, and maybe even some messages that had been deleted. mbox is the most important. Incoming_Mail may or may not be present.
    6. Move any strangely-named Messages-T0x... folders to the Desktop (not into the Inbox Old folder). These folders are to be deleted after fixing the problem. They are temporary folders created during an import or an indexing process, and Mail should have deleted them when done. Their presence is a clear indication that something didn’t work as expected. If you’ve been using Mail after the conversion and have already tried to fix the problem by rebuilding the mailbox or something like that, they might contain messages that are neither in Messages proper nor in the mbox file, so keep them around until the problem is fixed.
    7. Move everything else within INBOX.mbox, except the Messages folder, to the Trash.
    The result of the above should be that INBOX.mbox contains the proper Messages folder only, and the Inbox Old folder on the Desktop contains the mbox and Incoming_Mail (if it exists) files only. Now, proceed as follows:
    8. Open Mail.
    9. The account’s Inbox should properly display in Mail as many messages as *.emlx files are in ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/. If that’s not the case, select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.
    10. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Other as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the Inbox Old folder that’s on the Desktop.
    As a result of doing the above, some messages may be duplicated now. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may find useful.
    Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move the messages anywhere you want and get rid of the imported mailboxes afterwards.
    If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
    Take a look at the following article (also referenced in the thread I mentioned at the beginning of this post) to learn what you might have done before upgrading to minimize the risk of this happening, and what you may do after fixing the problem to avoid similar issues from happening in the future. DON’T do now what the article suggests, though, as that would make things worse in the current situation:
    Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
    Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • Showing "Load More Messages", won't download.

    On my iPod Touch, my email account is showing "Load More Messages", won't download any of these old messages. How do I get these downloaded?
    It's related to my email provider somehow re-sending approx 1000 old messages. My desktop program downloaded them okay, but the iPod Touch won't download a single one of them.

    Resolved, sort of. I went on my webmail server, created a new folder called Archive and put all the messages from the inbox in there. Since they are no longer in my inbox, my iPod Touch is not longer trying to download them.

  • Messages won't delete from inbox

    Just upgraded to iOS7 on both iphone 4s and ipad2. In mail, on both devices (which are linked) deleted messages won't erase from the inbox - even though they have been permanently deleted from the mail editor on my computer. When I swipe left and hit trash, the message goes away for one second then reappears. I've tried re-booting the phone, didn't work. I definitely have the right passwords associated with the mail account in place. And haven't made any other changes to the mail settings since upgrading the operating system. I noticed that no one else has posted this problem using iOS7 yet, but have seen some threads using earlier formats - none of which were helpful in fixing my problem   thoughts? suggestions?

    rebuild your inbox using mailbox menu->rebuild.
