Exchange Mail - Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars

Hello. I am in Canada and have several email accounts set up here......Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars......
I have my Telus set up as POP (I had to do a trick to avoid IMAP), 4 Gmail accounts and my iCloud account. They all work fine at home at other local Hot Spots.
BUT for some reason when I am in the USA I can only receive mail most of the times but never am I able to send.
Any one know why....and what is the fix for it?
Thank You

Having the same problem with mail on 4th gen iPod touch.
There's a discussion going on over at the iPod forum on the same thing:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1392
Seems this is most likely a gmail SMTP problem with 3rd party mail clients, including Apple Mail and iPod, iPhone mail.
Just browsed gmail forums and found this:

Fingers crossed google are looking into it.

Mail contacts calendars option freezes in settings list

For no reason whatsoever, my Exchange Server mail stopped syncing with my iPad2 yesterday. When I go to Settings, "Mail Contacts Calendars", the line highlights but then just freezes right there and I can never get into those settings (eventually the iPad just takes me back the home screen). I did a soft reset, then a hard reset with restore (same problem), and now I am doing a hard reset with no restore (basically wiping the unit clean, which is such a pain in the a$$ to get all of my apps back into the appropriate folders that I've created). Any reason why this happened? Any way to fix it in the future? I have an iPhone 3GS and the mail was still working fine with it. No changes were made on the server or on the iPad2 (I own the company and know that no one did any changes yesterday). It happened just out of the blue. Thoughts? Thanks.

I have been experiencing some major sync/push problems with mail, contacts and calendar between my Mac, iphone and ipad for over a month now. The problems are still being investigated by Apples technicians.
However, a couple of days ago I set up a new iCloud account, whilst my original one is currently being investigated and is practically useless.
The new iCloud account works fine. All devices sync properly and I can create, edit and delete entries from all devices.
This is clearly an iCloud issue. I was initially suspected of causing the problem. I am now in the clear. If your email is of no consequence I suggest setting up a new iCloud account. Mine is important so I am waiting for Apple to reset my original iCloud account so that I can use it again.
Since setting up the new account my ipad works fine and no longer freezes in settings.
Result. Hope it works for you.

Features of "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" under Settings menue are disabled

I'm having major issues with the "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" section of settings (in iPhone 5S). I have synchronized my phone with MS office Outlook 2013 for mail, calendar and contacts, it was running well. but problem arise when wanted to erase a account from iphone, I see all features in "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" is disabled and no features of mail accounts can be changed. I need to changed one of my email account but it can not be inputted in iphone, and hence the phone is not exchanging any email. . I am in great trouble. I not even able to delete any account from it. please help me.

I just got off the phone with Apple Support. Fantastic service! I love Apple.
Okay, this is what they had me do, and it fixed all of my issues:
Go to Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network SettingsThis deletes all of your Wi-Fi settings and passwords, among other things, apparently.
The phone thinks for a while, and then restarts.
Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi -> and sign into your Wi-Fi network, as usual
That's IT!!
After that, I was able to delete accounts freely, set up a new account, change the options I wanted, and now everything works beautifully.
It's such a simple fix, and I wish I had thought of it on my own, but I never would've thought that all of these problems were caused by a need to flush out the network settings. Anyway, I hope this might help anyone else who runs into the same problem. Thanks for your help, pdroth.

Have you attempted a restore?

Mail contacts calendars missing in settings after 3.0

After I upgraded to the 3.0 firmware, the mail contacts calendars section under settings is missing completely. Anyone experienced this or know of a fix short of wiping the phone?

I can confirm that what /Esnes/ suggested fixed the problem of having no Mail, Contacts, Calendars option in Settings.
I wonder what other options are m.i.a. due to apps being 'hidden' or 'tucked away' in a 'folder'? Has me curious.
Thanks, /Esnes/! No idea why contacts are sorted by Last, First by default... maddening!

In the SETTINGS page, when i press MAIL,CONTACT , CALENDARS the page back to the initial page and do not open the page requested..
Any ideas?

A reboot should be enough to make it work.
Just restart your computer.
Otherwise, make sure you're an administrator - as if you're not, it could be that the administrator put a restiction.

Sorry, you said Gmail. If that's the case, you can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

System Settings - Mail Contacts Calendars - iCloud

After switching to Mountain Lion, I have created a new Apple ID with @icloud.com domain. I try to set it in System Settings -> Mail Contacts Calendars -> iCloud and it works for Contacts , Calendars, Safari, Documents but not for Email. When clicking on the Email Icon the progress indicator is rotating and after few seconds an AlertView shows with message "Imposible to Activate Mail".
Anyone has the same problem ?

Sorry, How to create Apple ID with @iclound.com.

Your Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.
1. Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
2. Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.
3. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

Check SMTP SETTINGS:tap settings:mail, contacts, calendars: no respons, dead

Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.

Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars

When I go into Settings and select Mail, Contacts, Calendars the screen slides over but then it closes. I can not get to this feature. All the other under settings slide over to reveal its contents except for Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Can someone help me understand whats going on?

You may need to do a "reset". You can do this by holding down the "Sleep and Home" buttons at the same time (and continue to hold them until you see the white Apple logo) then release the buttons. You will not lose anything on your phone. Let me know if this helps.

Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen closes immediately? I have tried Restore and all software up to date... help!, Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen closes immediately? I have tried Restore and all software up to date... help!

When I go to Settings > 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' the screen closes immediately returning to the home screen? I have tried resetting the iphone - no change, I then restored the iphone completely - no change (all software up to date.) please help!

I have the same problem with iPhone4, iOS5. The only workaround i have found was to disable the contacts and calender for the iCloud account. So much for being able to sync all my Mac products. At least with Mobileme everything but my windows products synced and worked OK.

Settings - Mail,Contacts,Calendars - I just return to the home screen

I need to set a password on my email account - how do I go about this if I cannot get through Settings - Mail,Contacts,Calendars

Problem alleviated by doing a factory restore. This does seem like a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
I really expected Apple software to be more robust than that.
Thanks for all your suggestions
