Help getting Verizon email account onto iPad

Got my mom an iPad for her birthday yesterday so she doesn't have to carry around overflowing notebooks of stuff. Trying to get the email synced and am having a lot of trouble. We use Outlook on our desktop, and I have a username and password that accesses our verizon.com account. However, when I go onto the iPad it asks for name, email address, password but says the incoming mail server password is wrong. Then it shoots me onto a screen with incoming/outgoing mail servers and user names (set as our email address) and passwords set as the password I put in the first step. I do not know what the incoming/outgoing mail server stuff is. Am I supposed to have a separate password for those? Do I have to contact Verizon to find out my password and username for these servers? Is the fact we use Outlook on our desktop to handle our emails and not verizon.com affecting this? Please help me get this working for my mom! Thanks!

make sure you can log in at http://webmail.verizon.com with the user and password you are trying to use
if it's a verizon/yahoo mix type of thing, then the mail servers are different
they are incoming.yahoo.verizon.net and outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
VS incoming.verizon.net and outgoing.verizon.net
Also if you can't log in there then your password is legitimately wrong, and you should reset it. It is probably saved in outlook, and you may be under the impression that it is one thing, but if it can't log in at the above website then it has to be something else. reset it if needed.

Verizon email account hacked, need a Verizon email specialist to HELP me Please.....

My Verizon email account was hacked recently. My account has been sending out Viagra and Fat Pill emails to all of my contacts. I want to change my Verizon email account password. I've contacted Verizon through the {edited for privacy} phone number multiple times without any resolution. I've also setup at least 5 chat sessions without any resolution.
Each time, the technical support person guides me to changing my "My Verizon" password which is not connected to my Verizon/Yahoo email portal. This is getting frustrating, I want to change my email password not my "My Verizon" password. These systems apparently do not talk to each other.
I've searched the internet and this seems to be a known problem for other people as well. I need a Verizon email specialist to contact me to resolve this issue. Please help me.......

Sorry you are having difficulty, an agent with access to your account will reach out to you directly by email, private message in the Forums and/or the billing telephone number on your Verizon account for more information to help you resolve your issue.Please remember to check your spam/junk folder if you do not hear from an agent.

I can no longer access my verizon email account from my ipad-says there is a blocker and won't accept my password ?? how to fix

I can no longer access my verizon email account from my IPad - kicks my password out and says there is a blocker??how to fix?

Says there is a blocker?
Please provide the exact wording of the error message.
Any "blocker" would be on Verizon's end.
Any change after deleting and recreating the account on your iPad?

Since upgrading to IOS 8.1.2, I cannot send/receive emails from either of my Apple or Verizon email accounts. Does anyone know how to fix this problem or how to go back to IOS 8.1.1?

I tried to contact support but they do not recognise my Thai phone number.
the Thai support site is all in Thai (and I neither read or write it).
All I want is a single email address that works - it must be quite a simple process.
I don't want to create another account with another credit card - life will just get seriously complicated then.
BTW my apple I'd is accepted for downloading free apps!!!

First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have?

Using Eudora or Netscape7 for non-verizon email accounts with FIOS for access

Since Verizon does not give tech support to 3rd party email clients, and using a non-Verizon email account creates additional problems, I decided to share what I learned the very hard way....certainly with no help whatever from Verizon tech support.
First of all, there may have been a time (a day, a month, some random nanosecond) when you had to change the port to 587 it is no longer the case. Port 25 works just fine, and in fact 587 no longer works in most cases. So ignore tech support's claim that all you have to do is change the port number to 587...don't do it.
And so long as you want to use a pop account other than verizon for your incoming email you will have to use what is referred to as SMTP Relay. Verizon tech support will tell you that Verizon no longer supports SMTP Relay, and technically speaking that is true, but Verizon SMTP Relay is not what you need anyway. What you need is to use the SMTP Relay facility of your Email Client, in my case Eudora and (for my wife) Netscape 7.
Now before you can actually do anything you will have to have a valid Verizon email account, even if you never plan to actually use your verizon email address. That means before you can set up your email client you must have a verizon email address. The tech who installed my FIOS supposedly set up my computer, which meant I had internet access, but he didn't set up the verizon email address. I wasted 2 days before this came to light...so just make sure you have one before starting.
Netscape 7.0 has an email client my wife has used forever so I had to make it work for Verizon FIOS. Fortunatly they have a built in SMTP Relay facility (although they never call it that). You set up your pop (incoming) server the way you always have. In my our email accounts are on Earthlink, so you use the earthlink POP server for your incoming email. If you are switching from whatever you have to Verizon FIOS, you will already have that set up anyway. But you will have to change the SMTP server address to outgoing.verizon.net and you will have to click the box that says Use Authentication, with User Name and Password. You will put into the User Name your verizon email account except without the .verizon.net And the first time you use this Client to send email it will ask your for your password (use your Verizon password) and you should check the box that says to remember this password. This will make everything work fine. You will see on the SMTP Server information page a box that allows you to fill in the port. If you leave it blank it will use port 25. If you put in another port number it has to be right, and what is the correct number keeps changing based on which verizon person you talk to. I found that 25 works, although they say it won't, and that others don't work, although they say they will.
To Use Eudora (as i do) first you have to be using the latest version 7.1 because it appears to be the first one that truely supports SMTP Relay. That's a free download if you don't have it. Then you have to use multiple personalities. Effectively you set up one personality (go to to tools and click on personalities) which is your normal email account (ie not your verizon one). This is used for everything with the exception of the SMTP Server interaction. YOu then set up a second personality which is for your Verizon email account. Be aware that you can still have that account use your normal email return address so folks who receive email from you can reply to your normal email address. You can, independantly from that set up your incoming email pop account to be either your normal one or your verizon incoming email account (I do it the later way so I can receive something actually sent to my Verizon account, although I never give that out. But now the important thing is that you set up your SMTP server to be outgoing.verizon.net set up User Name to be your verizon email account but without the verizon.net and click on Authentication Allowed and Use Relay Personality. Don't click on Use submission port 587, like I said you want to use 25, but if verizon has changed that yet again no problem as you can set up the port to use independantly using the Tools/Options/Ports , and finally you go to the Tools/Options/SendingMail stuff and select the SMTP Relay Personality to be the one that is set up for the Verizon email account. That means your client will operate using your primary personality for everything except the SMTP part and for that it will get all its parameters from the Relay Personality.
This all worked.

I use Eudora a my email client and routinely receive both my Verizon and ATT emails.
The last email I received from my Verizon account was at 10:30pm on August 5. I cannot send emails from Eudora at all either.
My Verizon DSL email account is active through Verizon-Florida at my home there. I am currently at my Ohio home and the DSL account is with Frontier which purchased Verizon here in Ohio.
Does anyone know what might have happened to have resulted in my emails not being sent to or from my Eudora Client?

"Unable to send mail" using Verizon email account

No matter what I try, my Incredible will not send an email using my Verizon email account. I receive emails but cannot send. I've verified the account settings numerous times and the verifications always work. But I still get the "Unable to send mail" message. Initially I thought it was the port but I've tried both 25 and 587. Neither work. I know I've sent messages before but it's been a while. Anyone have any ideas?

I tried SSL with 25 and 587 (Verizon recommendation). Still no go.
BTW, there isn't any way to save the Mail size limit and Download options is there. Every time I go thru this I have to go back and set these up again.
Thanks again for your help.

Verizon email account removed from HTC Thunderbolt

My Verizon email account has mysteriously disappeared from my HTC Thunderbolt. I have tried a number of times to reinstall the account onto the phone but I keep getting a message that it won't connect to the server. I am receiving my emails on my Verizon account on my pc just fine. I have called Verizon Wireless who told me to call Verizon for their email settings. The email settings on my phone are correct. They match the email settings on my pc. I did call Verizon anyway. They gave me different email settings to try. That didn't work either. I called HTC. They say it is a Verizon server problem. I have been getting the runaround for two days now and one Verizon tech offered to transfer me to someone I would have to PAY for support. Another wanted to rout my email through my gmail account. No one knows what is wrong. Does anyone have any answers? I tried switching to 3G. It didn't work. Thanks.

I am confused, is it a verizon email account ([email protected]) or is it a hotmail account? why do you have any hotmail settings.
Try following the instructions at www.verizon.com/repair
they should set you up just fine if you are using a verizon.net account.

Setting up email accounts on ipad

I recently bought an ipad and am struggling to get my email account to work!
I set up to access my hotmail account through the ipad and now it keeps saying that i have not provided a password for imap! I have no idea what this means, but i currently can't send emails only receive them.
I have no idea what POP account means or what incoming /outgoing mail server hotmail uses or how to find out so would love it if anyone could help me in basic terms (i am no computer buff!).
I have a wifi connection on ipad 2 which seems to be be fine as i can connect to safari no problems.
Please help as i am not using my ipad to its full potential!!
Thanks

As best I know all ISP providers operating Mail Servers for their customers REQUIRE "password authentication" in order to access and download your email. Why wouldn't you want to set it?
Hope this helps

TS3988 How do I get the email account that was in icloud?

Hello, my manager handed me his phone off to resolve it and I restored and updated the iphone without knowing who was the account that was set up iCloud, and now I can not activate the phone. How do I get the email account that was in icloud that was configured on the phone? Starting email already know who is the account

No one can give you that. Ask your manager to contact the previous owner of the device. They are the only one who can help you with this, either by providing the correct ID and password, or erasing the phone and removing it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515.

Not any of them?
Did it just now stop working, or has it never worked?
Have you set up your email account(s) on the iPad?
What sort of email account (POP3, IMAP, Exchange, Gmail, iCloud)?
Do you have any rules established on your computer that might remove messages from your inbox on the server?

How do I set up imap email account on iPad air 2

How do I set up imap email account on iPad air 2

You do not need to specify the type of account. If its IMAP, when you add the account it will detect that automatically.
Alternatively, you can enter a fake email address and password when adding the account, and wait for the process to fail, you should then get an option at the top to select between IMAP and POP3
You can then change the details of the account to the correct ones.
