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 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 deleting an email account from my iPhone.
I want to delete a mail account and then add it back on to the phone (hoping to free up space). I've tried going into "Settings" then "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" then into the account I wish to delete and selecting "Delete Account" but the account is still there. How can I actually delete the entire thing?
The only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created, or to create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or later), if you have one.

I'm having trouble setting up email on my new Lucid
I'm having trouble setting up 2 of my email accounts on my new Lucid phone for some reason. I go through the setup wizard process, but the phone can't connect with either my Hotmail or my Yahoomail accounts, and I get the message "Getting Token failed". What does this mean, and what can I do to correct this? Does the phone have to be in 4G to connect to email accounts?
Mam129, I rely on email to stay connected with family and friends so I know how important it is to be able view them on my phone. But don’t worry because I’m here to help.
Are you still unable to set up your email? A fix for the issue has recently been implemented. Please try setting up the email again and keep me posted if you have any issues.

Was able to set up my e-print on printer but am having problems setting up my account on-line. Keeps on telling me have wrong e-mail or password. How do I get this reset so I can start over. Very frustating, have been trying for weeks to get this done. The reason I bought this was for the e-print now I cannot use and have wasted my money. Please help me.
Hi bridgette12,
This issue usually occurs when you have a Snapfish.com account with the same email address as you are trying to use to create the ePrintCenter account. This should fix your problem:
1. Log onto Snapfish.com (reset password if necessary). You may skip this step if you already know your Snapfish password.
2. Go to www.ePrintCenter.com
3. Click Sign In
4. Click the blue Snapfish logo
5. Enter your Snapfish login information
Please let me know if this works for you.
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided.

I am having trouble setting up my email and syncing my outlook calendar wiht my new iphone 4s.
How do you connect to the internet?
Most of the time, the problem lies here. You can try a couple of things. First, try only 3G or carrier data. Then, try only wifi. If that still doesn't work, your only other option is to try a different hotspot.
I had the same problem before when I updated to iOS 4.3. I thought it was the update at first. I usually have the carrier data turned off because my plan doesn't have an unlimited provision for it. I forgot that I also switched ISPs from DSL to a visibility unit package - meaning I had to setup my laptop so that I could get wifi from it. I realized this when I visited a friends house that I knew I could connect properly before.
My problem was with my laptop. It seems that Little Snitch blocks the ports being used for mail and push notifications. I haven't figured it out exactly since I still can't get email when I'm using my laptop connection. But, it works fine when I'm using ONLY 3G or both/wifi only if connected to a different hotspot.
Hope that helps. -

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. -

Try setting up using other instead of yahoo.
Make sure your on edge or 3g and not wifi.
Choose imap as account type when prompted.

Enter username and password
Outgoing mail server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
Enter username and password
Answer no to try w/ out SSL message
Now save again and save anyway.
Now go into the account advanced settings and turn ssl off.

Having trouble creating an iCloud account on my iPhone 4
I recently purchased an iPhone 4 off of craigslist. I love the phone and have had no problems with it, except I cannot figure out how to creat an iCloud account. When I try to create one on my phone, a notification pops up that says "this phone has exceeded its number of free accounts". Ive read that you are allowed 3 free accounts, but there has to be some way around this. Please help!!!
Thanks~!The only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created, or to create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or later), if you have one.
