Having trouble adding new email account on Iphone 4

Hello,
I got my Iphone 4 on release day. The sync went ok, not completely trouble free, but was able to get this thing sync-ed.
I have four email accounts sync-ed with Itunes, however, I had created an extra email (pop) for exclusive use on my IPhone. I have been trying to add this new address on my phone, but keep getting the following error:
"Cannot Connect Using SSL
Do you want to try setting up the account without SSL?"
I have checked, and the settings for the new account are correct. If I answer yes I receive the following message:
"The SMTP server "smtp-server.new.rr.com" doesn't support Password authentication. Please check your account settings and try again." and an OK button.
Settings have been checked to match the other four accounts, all are in the same server, POP and SMTP.
Thanks for any help.

The problem is not thru TWC... I can access my account in Outlook and also by Webmail.
The problem is on the Iphone 4 (I had no problem on my 3G). Like I said, the settings I have entered are the same as the settings for the other 4 accounts. The only portion of the setup that I cannot access during the "failed" setup is the "Advanced" where I can turn SSL off and confirm password authentication.

  • Having trouble adding Bellsouth email acct to iPhone 5

    I just purchased an iPhone 5 for my wife and am having trouble setting up her Bellsouth email account (@bellsouth.net) on the phone. This email account works on her 3Gs and iPad 2. The iPhone keeps saying that either the username or password is incorrect. I know the password is correct - just verified that. I used the mail assistant and verified settings on my iPhone from another Bellsouth account. Very frustrating.
    Any suggestions?

    Got it figured out (working). For some reason I had to change the iPad account to an iMap account and it worked. Why is that? They have to be the same? Didn't think that was the case.

    Having trouble adding a gmail account on my iPad.  This would be a second email account.  Keep receiving message that says username or password are incorrect but I know the are accurate.   Any suggestions?

    You might be better off deleting the account and starting all over again with the account. Here is a gmail help site that will take you through all of the set up steps.

  • Setting new email account on iphone not working - but same EXACT account settings on iPad working fine.

    I am attempting to setup my website's email on my new iPhone 5s iOS 7.1.2 
    I have Yahoo! setup and working perfectly.  But when I attempt to setup the new email account using the same exact settings that are on my iPad - I get an error that says the username or password is incorrect.  I have rebooted the phone and no luck.  I have attempted to setup the account as both IMAP as well as POP3... and get the same error message.  I know that this is a situation that the password is correct and the error message isnt telling me what is really going on.  Does anyone have any idea?

    Yahoo has hundreds of mail servers that are notorious for being out of sync. In all likelyhood, you are hitting two completely different servers on your iPad and your phone.
    It's a Yahoo problem. The best thing you can do to alleviate the problem is dump Yahoo and move to something else for email. It's been like this for years. I wouldn't expect to see it fixed anytime in the foreseeable future.

  • Having trouble setting up email account on wifes iphone

    My wife just got an iphone 4s and I have been unsuccessful in setting up her email account on the phone. I went through the step by step procedures. When I submit it always gives me a wrong user id or password message. I even went into the system and reset the password. Her email is a sub-account of mine. The email worked fine on her Samsung II, but now I can't get it to operate on the iphone. 

    I was having the exact same issue.  It was driving me crazy.  Just as a fluke, I tried logging in to my wife's account on the verizon.net website to se if I had a bad password or something.  As soon as I logged in on my computer, her account verified & installed on her iphone.  I have no idea why, but it worked.

  • Having trouble adding new collection in ibooks?

    Has anyone else had this problem or know how I go about fixing it?
    Thank you!

  • Having trouble setting up email accounts in the mail app?

    Hi Apple community,
         I am having trouble setting up my email accounts with the osX mail application. I have two accounts, an outlook and my college email through google. When I try to add the outlook account the prompt says that it cannot connect to the server and when I try my college mail i get the following prompt.
    "Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
    Please note that my college account is run by gmail and ends in murraystate.edu
    Thanks, Will.

    Hey will,
    okay for your college email. Heres what you do.
    Try adding your email and wait for the message to come up
    Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
    Once it does, you will notice 2 extra boxes One says username and the other password. You will notice that the username will not have @murraystate.edu
    Add this and continue and this should now be added as an email account and should be able to receive emails as normal.
    For your outlook emails, I would recommend using the following article to set it up. It is fairly straightforward.

  • Having trouble adding my Rocketmail account

    I just got my very first iPhone, and I'm loving it except I cannot for the life of me figure out how to add my Rocketmail email account. I've Googled and discovered that others have had challenges too, but I haven't been able to make it work no matter what I try (granted, I'm still pretty clueless with this device).
    If anyone can help me, I'd be greatly appreciative!

  • Adding new email account

    We have an email account/name [email protected] that is hosted by gmail.
    In the past we configured Thunderbird so that mail could be received/sent on one of our volunteers laptops.
    This was set-up using our email address/password. Recently however when trying to send email via Thunderbird we get the following: 'sending of message failed. because the connection to SMTP server smtp.ggoglemail.com timed out'
    We re-checked setting in Gmail and all was fine. Checked that Thunderbird was allowed through firewall. Meanwhile other email accounts set up in the person's Thunderbird were working fine. Hmm so we removed our [email protected] and tried to set it up again in Thunderbird. On Mail Account Set-Up however now we get the following: 'Thunderbird failed to find settings for your email account'
    At a loss how to advise our volunteer to resolve this, any help would be most appreciated. BR

    is the new "allow conne4ctions from less secure apps" set on Gmail. They introduced some security that they are pushing that no email client in the world supports, so the less secure apps has to be turned on.
    What the setting really says is "allow a mail client to access mail." but they already had that.
