HELP!!! I cannot get my iBook to connect to my Home iMac

been trying forever .... just try to connect to servers but cannot get it to find my home computer from work... all the settings are on... can someone point me in the right direction

AT&T (as well as most ISP-issued routers) are non-standard. If you want to avoid headaches in the future, go buy your own Netgear or Linksys!
On the router did you change the channel to 11 or 1? Did you change from WEP to WPA encryption?
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
I am employed by HP

HT4527 Help I cannot get home sharing on to my I pad

Help I cannot get home sharing to work on my I pad purchased yesterday

On your computer's iTunes you've turned on home sharing via File > Home Sharing, and in the Sharing tab in Edit > Preferences you have the 'share library' tickbox ticked (I use a Mac, but I assume that it's similar for PCs) :
On my iPad I'm logged into the same account via Settings > Videos > Home Sharing, both my computer and iPad are connected to the same network (and iTunes on my computer is open), and at the top of the Videos app I get an extra tab :

HT2480 Ipad mini - exchange email stopped working randomly Error: "Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed."

I got an iPad mini over Christmas and have had no issues setting up/managing my email until yesterday. I've had my Exchange email working for almost a month, and yesterday I stopped getting emails and getting the error: "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed."
I tried resetting the device (multiple times) and deleting and recreating the Exchange account (multiple times). This is getting annoying because it worked fine up until yesterday. I'm not aware of any updates to the device, or any changes that have occurred since yesterday.

Due to a screen issue, I had my iPhone 5 replaced two days ago. I repeated deleted the mail account and kept adding it but this did not make any difference. When I attempted to setup the new phone with my Google (Gmail via exchange active sync) accounts I was receiving this same "Cannot Get Mail" error. From what I was able to gather, this problem should be affecting Gmail accounts set up via Exchange. When originally purchasing the phone I was assisted and directed to set up my Gmail account through Exchange because it had the ability to use "ActiveSync" and push not only mail and calendars, but all of my contacts as well. I found this article regarding the subject.
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2413283,00.asp
What it came down to was having to delete my Gmail via Exchange account and separate it into two different accounts, a regular gmail account for my mail and a CardDAV account for my contacts.
Here is what I did. Google is changing their system and for new registrars Exchange ActiveSync will not work so you will be unable to register your account via Exchange and have your mail, calenders, and contacts all pushed together. I find this change really annoying. If you are having problems accessing your contacts after deleting the mail account, like I was, here is the work around.
To circumvent this issue go to Setting > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDAV Account: Under server ender google.com, then your email user name and password, then click next to verify the information.
I hope this helps.

Yahoo Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed

iPhone 4s with latest version of iOS.
A few days ago my Yahoo Mail stopped connecting, and I started seeing the above noted error message (Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed.) While it won't retrieve messages, it will let me send. So at least SMTP seems to be working OK.
I've tried deleting it and adding it back, but to no avail. I've rebooted the phone. I've and any combination of options found on these boards. Yet, the problem persists. Anyone experience something like this before? If so, any fix for it?

I contacted Yahoo. Gave them all the information. They acknowledged that they are having an issue and that they are working to resolve it.
One temporary measure that does work with the Mail App. Add the Yahoo account manually. In other words, click on Other (at the bottom of the list) instead of Yahoo when adding your account, and use these settings.

HT6147 After the upgrade to 7.0.6, all my mail boxes get errors saying Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed.

Please help.

I'm encountering the very same issue. I updated to 7.0.6 and now I continuously get the 'Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed'.
I'm on an iPhone 5 and my email account is Outlook.com set up through the Exchange option.
I have attempted PhilipRoy's suggestion, but unfortunately it hasn't solved my issue. Please note that this happens both on WiFi and 3G.
It's driving me nuts.

I have two iMac's on the same desk. Once iMac pairs with both keyboards and mice. The other pairs with the mouse, but I cannot get the keyboard to connect. How do I get a keyboard and mouse to connect to each iMac independently?

I have two iMac's on the same desk (about a foot apart). One iMac pairs with both keyboards and mice. The other pairs with the mouse only; I cannot get the keyboard to connect. How do I get a keyboard and mouse to connect to each iMac independently?

I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI. I have also been receiving 'Cannot send mail, an error occurred while delivering this message.

Hmm, that's odd JeanEB. The error message referts to the connection to your email server not to cellular data or connection to wi-fi. Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Select your account and type in your password again. If this doesn't resolve it, delete/re-add the email account.

Iphone 5. cannot get mail. no internet connection available.

I have the iphone 5. My carrier is Sprint. I can get email only when connected to wi-fi. When no wi-fi is available I get a pop up message that says: cannot get mail. no internet connection available.
I am sure I am just missing a setting or something to correct this. Any ideas?
Thank you!

I experienced this problem firsthand with a Sprint iPhone 5 about a month ago, telling me it had no internet connection and could not check my email (which was Gmail, set up through the native Mail app, using default settings). I can confirm that restarting the phone (holding home + power buttons until restart) temporarily fixed the problem but it quickly returned. Toggling Airplane mode did nothing. The problem did return within the same day after a period of time. I have since switched back to AT&T.
Interstingly, my sister had the same issue with her brand new Sprint iPhone 5 this week. She called Sprint and the customer service representative confirmed that this is a problem that only affects Sprint iPhone 5 users who use Gmail. The rep told her that it affects Gmail both in the native Mail app and also in the Gmail app, but web use still works (I haven't confirmed this). The rep also said that Sprint is aware of the problem and working on a fix that would be delivered in the form of a "software update" but there was no clarification if that was an iOS update or a Sprint carrier update.
That's all the info I have now, but if you're a Sprint iPhone user and experiencing this problem, please do call Sprint and let us know what you find out.
