Email will not update if my wifi is on

No matter where I am I cannot get my yahoo email to update if I am on wifi

I was having same problem. All my Yahoo and Gmail accts were getting push notifications all day long but my regular POP3 emails (I have 7 that I check daily), were not getting updated thruout the day.  Then when I got home to my home network Wi-Fi, all my POP3 emails would download.
So I went into my Settings and made sure that my 'Fetch' settings were: PUSH-ON and my FETCH setting was set to every 30 min, since I think that POP3 email accts are not designed to push out to you.
Then I read somewhere on the Apple Email Setup page that after you have setup your SMTP and POP3 servers, with the proper settings, you need to reboot the iPhone.
As soon as I rebooted it, within a few minutes, I started receiving POP3 emails.  I've got my fingers crossed.

    My email will not update as long as I have wifi enabled (all accounts except Exchange). Does anyone know why?  Happens on my iPhone 4 and my iPad 2.

  • TS3276 Email will not update

    My email on my desktop stopped updating 3 days ago.  I have tried restarting the system and rebuilding the mail folder, and neither has helped.  I know it is not the email provider as I am still getting mail on my iPhone and iPad.  I am at a loss for what to do next.  Any suggestions?  When I try to manually update the mail it makes the same sound it does when I don't have any new mail, and I know this is not the case.  Thanks!

    It says Mail was able to connect to the internet.  Green circle.  Also says next to account name Connection and login to server succeeded.  It doesn't look like the program thinks there is a problem.

  • ICloud email will not update apple id

    I have recently changed the email element of my Apple ID.  Since then I keep on receiving messages on iMac, iPad and iPhone asking for my iCloud email password for the former Apple ID.  I cannot change this on any of the above devices.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your devices, even though they prompt you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • My email will not update on my iPad but it will on my phone.

    I have tried reset, change push/ fetch without success. Any ideas?

    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset and try again.
    Reset... No Data or Settings will be lost...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • HT201210 Iphone 4s will not update to iOS 7.  Says an error occurred.  I have to plug my phone into the computer also because it will not connect to home wifi.  All other devices will connect to wifi though.  I have enough storage to update also.

    My iphone 4s will not update to ios 7.  I'm trying to update this through my imac because the iphone will also not connect to my home wifi.  I've tried several different things but nothing is working.  I deleted enough pics and apps so there is enough storage.  When i plug it in, it starts to bring all my photos to the imac. I cancel this because i don't want it.  It then says extracting software, backing up iphone, then i get the error message.  Do I need the iphone 5?

    I just tried again, no code comes up on the imac.  Just says cannot back up this device with my "initials" because of an error.  It's weird because my iphone has been connected to othert wifi sources in the past. I've looked through these forums and have tried multiple things like resetting the phone, resetting network, shutting off modem and router, nothing works.  I have an apple airport extreme router too.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  • After updating my iPhone 5 to iOS 8.1 it will not connect to the wifi network at work even though it recognizes it. It however still automatically connects to the network at home. I have restared the phone and toggled the router, still no connection

    After updating my iPhone 5 to iOS 8.1 it will not connect to the wifi network at work even though it recognizes it. It however still automatically connects to the network at home (this is the network I used to update the phone). My iPad however does not seem to have any problem connecting. I have restared the phone, toggled the router, re-entered the network password but there's still no connection.

    When your device is trying to connect to the work Wi-Fi network, go to Settings > Wi-Fi > then tap on the name of the Netowrk that she is having trouble with. Then tap on forget this network. Let the device attempt to connect again and make absolutely sure she is trying to connect to the work network and not a nearby network, then make absolutely sure the password is entered correctly.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
