Having problem receiving email.  Need help to troubleshoot.

I am now not able to receive email with Apple Mail - sending is OK. Switched to Postbox and now with Postbox I can't send, but can receive.  Service provided by Comcast.
Suggestions?

There seem to be a lot of problems with COMCAST lately.

    Try this first - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • HT1430 I am having problems receiving emails on my mini ipad, if my wi fi is not on for say 2 days then I switch it on it will not give me the last 3 days emails, only the day I am on.

    I am having problems receiving emails on my ipad mini, if my wi fi has been off for 3 days for eg. when I switch it on it will only send me emails from that day and not from the previous 3 days

    Have you already looked at these emails on a computer?

  • Having problems "receiving" email from a friend.

    For the past month, I have not been able to receive emails sent to me by a friend. My email address is the same. His address is the same. Nothing has changed. He has a yahoo account. He does not get any indication, or message his email bounced, or failed to deliver. Neither do I. It just doesn't arrive. I am able to send emails to his address. I have been receiving emails from his address for years. Just stopped working. I'm stumped. Any ideas?

    i receive test emails to myself just fine. I did discover today that another email my friend sent went to my mobileme junk folder. Another test email he sent went to junk folder on my mac. Previously, I didn't see his emails in my junk folder at all, but they could have been. How do I make sure his email address isn't blocked or marked as junk? Is it as simple as making an entry into my address/contact book? Obviously, I should have already done this, but I haven't done that. Thanks for your response.

  • Having problems with burning - need help please!

    when I try and burn a disk itunes says no recording
    software found. Everytime I start up itunes it says the drivers associated with burning are missing. It ask me to
    reinstall the software which I do and I have the same
    problem. I have other burning software but cant burn any
    itunes Ive purchased do to the format. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    The german note is:
    Achtung
    Die Registrierungseinträge für die iTunes Treiber zum Import und Brennen von CDs und DVDs fehlen. Diese kann Folge der Installation einer anderen Software zum Brennen von CDs sein. Bitte installieren sie iTunes erneut.
    Could anybody please help me??

    I need more information about your hardware configuration. Run the iTunes Help menu -> Run CD Diagnostics... command and post the results here.
    I'm assuming that you're not running 64-bit windows.
    It sounds like the driver didn't get installed. You could try doing a repair install on iTunes --
    Windows Start menu -> Settings -> Control Panels -> Add or Remove Programs
    Select iTunes, Select Change/Remove button, Select "Repair" radio button, click OK.
    If that doesn't work, you might try downloading just the CD drivers from :
    http://www.gearsoftware.com/support/drivers.cfm
    Get the first link, not the second one that talks about gearsec compatibility.

  • Email recipients having problems receiving and opening attachments after iOS7 update.  Help!

    I use my iPad for work, and often send emails with multiple PDF attachments via the GoodReader app.  Since updating to iOS7, people are having problems receiving and/or opening my attachments.  All available updates have been installed for both the iPad and GoodReader apps.
    My emails either show up with NO attachments, or with a box marked with an "X".
    I Googled and learned others are having the same issue, especially when sending single page PDFs.
    The email address/account I am using is through the Microsoft Exchange.  I will say, however, when I try sending the attachments from my iCloud email account, I have no problems.  I also had no problems with iOS6.
    Someone is probably going to tell me this is a Microsoft problem and not an Apple problem.  Regardless, I need a solution.  This is very frustrating.  I'm ready to go back to using my Windows-based laptop.  HELP!

    Solution for me was changing the "Load Remote Images" setting, shutting down and restarting the phone.  The old messages with problems reloaded with all attachments accessible. 
    Background: I began having this problem recently with PDF, jpeg,vcf files and apparently now, all attachments as well as email with html links are coming through with no attachment or as empty email.  This was a new problem for me. I have been backing up to the cloud, but not using a cloud email account.  I have multiple accounts on the phone, six of them actually and have been set up this way for over a year without problem.  Some are imap, some pop, none are through exchange.

  • Having problem buying online.need your help since it's my first time here.apple is asking for my billing address but when i enter my address here in qatar,it's saying i should enter a valid zip code within the u.s.does it mean i can't buy online

    To buy in for delivery in Qatar, you should be starting from the Apple Qatar site:

    Do you have an Apple-ID? if you do, then you should not have to enter your Address again, and may be able to sidestep the US Zip Code issue.

    I think you have to turn off Private Browsing.
    Tap "Private" on Safari Screen to disable Private Browsing. When top of screen is white, Private Browsing is off.

  • I'm having problems receiving/sending emails thru Outlook.

    I switched internet connection from AT&T to Comcast and I'm still utilized several AT&T email address's for free. I'm having problems receiving/sending emails thru Outlook.  Could the problem be due to using their free emails with no support.
    Do I have to go thru yahoo to read/send emails?

    Change the ISP would not effect the email connection generally. (Only when ISP disable your mailbox which they could control directly.)
    I suppose that your Outlook still store/cache the AT&T messages, try to export them as PST data file for backup.
    Setup the new Yahoo in your current Outlook first and then import that backup.pst to continue to use.

  • Problems Receiving Emails and some data on WIFI since latest software update.

    Problems Receiving Emails and some data on WIFI since latest software update. 
    My blackberry torch will not receive emails on wifi since the latest software update, I've tried numerous wifi networks and several handsets, even had them replaced and received a brand new. Still the same problem. 
    When turning off the wifi network on the torch, the phone will stall for 5-10min while it tries to communicate with the network (vodafone) to receive outstanding emails and data. 
    Can someone please inform Blackberry and get a quick fix on this

    Sounds like you have Do NOt Disturb turned on.

    Hi saiyed adil, 
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    It appears that your iPhone 5s sometimes produces low sound, but a restart corrects it. 
    It can take some time to isolate and resolve intermittent issues like this one, and I'd recommend going through the steps in this guide the next time it occurs:
    If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support
    All the best,
