Gmail and IMAP mail accounts no longer work in the mail app since iOS 6

I'm getting the User information or password is incorrect message.  Or it takes 10+ minutes to send a message.  It will no longer allow me to sync with my IMAP mail account from work.  Everything worked correctly, then iOS 6 is released and it's hosed.  I've looked online elsewhere and a few people from google are aware of the problem and are trying different things.  I tried enabling two-step id with google and providing an app-specific password to no avail. 
Highly frustrated in this, and also in the fact that there are no useful workarounds.  Anyone have any thoughts?

Hi, just update your extensions ( "Change quote and reply format 0.8.1" has to be installed an to be active) by using the updating-function for extensions integrated in Thunderbird.
Or - if the extension is removed - install the latest version from the devellopers website: https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/changequote-en.html

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
    5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • Mail Account NO LONGER stores Passwords for Mail Accounts

    Since my last restart my mac mail accounts (.mac, company, etc) no longer STORE passwords for either the send or smtp receive... Anyone experience this before? I'm going to try and toss the mail pref files and even delete my accounts, but since it's happening to ALL of my accounts (5) at the same time I'm concerned that I'll be wasting my time until I fix what's gotten broken...

    Since these password are stored in your Keychain, try running Keychain First Aid on your Keychain via Keychain Access.

  • Siri is working in Adobe Reader App since iOS 8.2 update.

    I have been using the Adobe Reader app for two years.  Since the iOS 8.2 update, I can not edit text in PDF form fields using Siri for dictation.  It worked great in iOS 8.1 and 8.2.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Duplicate post by the same user.
    Since updating to iOS 8.2 I can not use Siri to enter text into a text field on a fillable form.  It works until I re-enter a field that already has text in it.  Thank you for any help you can provide me.

  • ICloud account no longer working in Messages app

    About 2 weeks ago, my iCloud account has stopped working in the Messages app (version 7.0.1) on my laptop (MacBook Pro 2011, running the latest Mountain Lion update, 10.8.5). Only this app seems to be affected -- Mail is functioning fine, as is Notes and Calendar. My iPhone and iPod touch also aren't affected.
    I was texting one of my friends while multitasking (I think I was working on a story I'm writing) when I realized that I was no longer receiving my text notifications on my computer. Initially I thought it just had logged out or something. I opened messages and tried to log back in to my icloud account, but I got the error message "Could not sign in to iMessage. The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." I tried multiple times that day, and have multiple times since, but still no luck. Finally a day or two ago I thought maybe I just needed to deactivate iCloud on my laptop completely, and then reactivate it. So I tried that, but still I'm getting the error message.
    Incidentally, I have AIM enabled on Messages, too, but that account seems to be functioning - it's logged in and messages can be sent/received. Only my iCloud account seems to be failing.
    I don't have any outstanding updates in the App Store, and in the meantime I'm able to iMessage friends just fine from my phone, but I kinda miss being able to easily switch apps and type, while I've got my laptop open. Any ideas what the issue might be?

    Try posting this question over in the OS X Mountain Lion forum.  iMessage is not part of iCloud.

    Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one.  How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

    So the answer to my question is yes - from an old Exchange account that was provided by a previous employer.
    If so, you can't.
    You can't merge or transfer contacts that were synced over the air with an Exchange account with another account, and the same for syncing the contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer. This is how most employers want it.

  • HT1277 I can't seem to get gmail from my apple mail account. I have removed the account and added it, but it says I have the wrong password. I close gmail and get in just fine. What's up?

    I can't seem to get gmail from my apple mail account. I have removed the account and added it, but it says I have the wrong password. I close gmail and get in just fine. What's up?

    I meant that I sign out, sign back in ok. Ergo, I know my password. Someone here on the support page  (you?) told me the culprit is the 2 step verification process which I had on. That makes a lot of sense as Apple mail won't get a code thereby jamming up the process. I could not even start a new account until I took that 2 step process off. Everything fine now thank you.

  • Mail Sounds No Longer Work on iPhone 4.

    The sounds for mail, incoming or outgoing, no longer work on my iPhone 4 (4.3.3).  All it does is vibrate even though that is set to Off.   All the other feature settings are set to ON. I have checked all the sounds and they work, they just don't work with the Mail any more.  This is a MobileMe IMAP account.  I tried re-setting everything without deleting data and that made no difference.  The sounds worked perfectly up until a week or so ago.  Any ideas on how to have them function again?  In addition, when I connect the iPhone to my iMac (Snow Leopard 10.6.7) the phone also vibrates.  This is a new feature as well.  Any chance a setting in iTunes might have caused this, and, if so, how to remedy it.
    Thanks!

    Problem solved.  No further action.

  • I bought pages ages ago using an iTunes account that no longer works as the email address has been closed down. How can I now update my Pages app, if it asks me to sign in using this now defunct email address?

    I bought Pages ages ago using an iTunes account that no longer works as the email address has been closed down. How can I now update my Pages app, if it asks me to sign in using this now defunct email address?

    All apps are always tied to the account from whaich they were purchased and will always have to be updated using that account.
    Just because the e-mail account is shut down, has nothing to do with the itunes account. Why did you create a new account?  Why not just change the e-mail associated with the old account?

  • Account doesn't work on Mac Mail but does on iPhone

    I have a IMAP email account with my company that works on my iPhone and in Entourage but doesn't work in Mac Mail. I have tried to copy the settings and even did a full erase and reinstall of Leopard and no one has an idea why it won't work, the hosting company or Pro Care. Any idea out there?

    No idea what  "My apple ID account doesn't work on my itunes but it does on the web" means.

  • N8 and imaps email account

    Hi all.
    I have an N8, and I'm trying to configure an imaps email account.
    My organization use the imap ssl with a self created certificate for sign the connection. The problem is that in N8 there is no way to say to nokia push servers to use that certificate, and thus during the account creation the configuration fail saying to check the servers name.
    Is there any way to have the push mail working?

    there is a messaging forum
    /t5/Messaging-Email-and-Browsing/bd-p/messaging
    so the messaging super geeks might be in there
    i know what you mean. i have a self signed certificate on my server and can't use NM with this either. fortunately i just drop mine down to regular imap and it's all fine (save the huge problems with NM, and push over imap) i guess you can't do that.
    the other option would be to decline the terms of service as you finish setting up the account., this causes the phone to switch back to a regular email client that connects directly with the mail servers rather than via NM.
    there is no push option. but email can be set to retrieve on notify. notify being when it is indicated over an imap idle connection. or you can just set it to retrieve every 5 minutes.
    you are still going to have certificate issues. but they may be manageable.
    There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

  • My POP mail account doesn't work w lion !

    for the first time in my "Apple Life" (22 years!) my account mail dosen't work after OS X Lion upgrade.
    it's an POP3  mail of the mayor internet company in Argentina (Fibertel)
    please, make something !
    thank's

    Hello guys,
    After a while I figured out what was going wrong with the POP email accounts and Mail 5.
    It happens that the new app is using a protocol that was not used by the mail programs as well as by ISP providers.
    Now, Mail 5, is questioning the mail servers about capability (CAPA instruction) and most of the servers answer as IMAP by default, even tho they are POP servers.
    So when Mail 5 receives this answer, it does not establish the connection and so POP accounts don't work.
    My ISP came out with a non conventional solution while they work on the server configuration.
    The solution is deleting the POP accounts and recreating them, indicating they are IMAP accounts, but configuring them manually as POP.
    To be clear, when recreating the account, the programs asks for the type of account. There you put IMAP.
    Further, when it cames to configure the account, you do it manually, configuring the POP and SMTP servers as if they were POP accounts.
    What this does is deceive Mail 5 which is specting an IMAP answer, but after that the account works as POP.
    It worked for me and my ISP (Fibertel).
    Hope this works for you too.
