Help Please: Mail will not work when Wifi uses HTTP Proxy

I am using an IPad 2 under iOS5. At work, I can connect to the internet using Safari via our wifi network with no problems. This requires access via a manually set HTTP Proxy.
However, all attempts to create or use a (GMail) account have failed. I know that the mail account works because I have used it with no problems via my home wifi network. It would appear that Mail is not using the wifi proxy information in settings.
The same was true under iOS4, but I would have hoped that a fix would have appeared in iOS5.
Can anyone offer help or advice as to how I get around this problem?
Thanks,
Chris

  • My mail will not work when I am at school.

    I am on my 15'' MBP. When I am on my own wireless network or on my neighbors. My mail sends just fine.
    I am currently at Arizona State University and I can neither recieve mail, nor send it.
    It gave me an error about the server or something but I was an idiot and did not copy it for help.
    Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problem?

    You should have no problems receiving messages but being able to send messages with an account and SMTP server that is outside of the internet provider's network or not provided by the ISP is determined by the ISP.
    There is nothing wrong with using Port 587 in place of 25 as long as the ISP used for connecting to the internet doesn't block both.
    You need to check with ASU's IT department or whichever department handles internet and email account connections to determine the required settings for using an email account and SMTP server that is not provided by ASU or ASU's internet service provider.

  • Help please - Brush will not work properly

    How do I get my brush to work - it is painting grey instead of the selected skin colour for a retouch in CC/CS6

    Thanks Jeff - A lovely lady from Adobe fixed my problem last night.
    She had to reset my preferences as my CS6 was corrupted.
    Your assistance is really appreciated - thank you.

  • I inherited an 2003 ipod from my daughter. The controls will not work when it is plugged into a power source. Can anyone help?

    I inherited a 2003 ipod from my daughter. The controls will not work when it is plugged into a power source. Can anyone help?

    But they work normally when not plugged in?  What kind of power source are you plugging it into? It maybe outputting more than what the iPod can handle.  I had this happen to an iPod I plugged into a powerstrip that was plugged into the cigarette lighter in a vehicle an experienced the same thing.

  • Transferred CS4 to new MacBook Pro, now some fonts will not work when PDFing documents from InDesign CS4. Help!

    I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro. I transferred my CS4 from my older MacBook Pro to my new computer, and although it seemed to be working fine now some fonts will not work when PDFing documents from InDesign CS4. These fonts are installed on my new computer, can be found in InDesign CS4, and work fine within the program but will not appear in PDFs. The letters turn into rectangles. Does anyone know why, and how to fix that?
    Help/input would be much appreciated. Thank you!
    Kristen.

    you should properly install adobe products, not move, migrate or otherwise transfer them.

  • Help! limewire will not work on my Mac mini 10.4.11 now that i cleaned it

    Help! LimeWire will not work on my Mac mini 10.4.11 now that i cleaned it out and had to get the new LimeWire. It keeps asking for Java 1.6 but I'm having no luck. :O( LimeWire was the reason I bought a Mac!

    Very weird day in Firefoxland
    First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
    Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
    Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
    WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!

  • I just installed Photoshop CC 2014, but Latest version of Bridge will not work when I want to open it from PS

    Any idea why is Bridge latest version not working when trying to open it in Photoshop CC 2014 ? (French version) ? When trying, Creative Cloud app will open to ask if I want to download newest version, which I did numerous times now.
    Thank you

    Hi Eric,
    Here's how a similar problem was resolved between PS and BR.
    The issue was confirmed by ChunXiaYang at Adobe staff and solution put in the forum discussion on June 19 (no. 13). Here's a copy:
    I have confirmed that this is a known issue before release. And the workaround is to uninstall and reinstall PS 2014. Then Bridge can be launched by selecting 'Browse in Bridge' in PS2014.
    Please try the installation, and let me know whether it works. Thanks!
    It woks just fine since I unistalled and reinstalled PS 2014.

    I did this with a fresh install of the entire CC package. As soon as the CC packages updated, CC Bridge broke. Unistalled CC PS, reinstalled again, CC Bridge works, but CC PS updates itself again, and breaks CC Bridge.
    You know... The whole move to CC has been a massive cluster... I've struggled with the CC packages for my entire subscription year, and now I'm 1.5 month away from needing to throw down another $720 for no reason what-so-ever, just so we can Beta test your really screwed up subscription services.

  • Apple Mail will not work without webmail login

    Spontaneously 2 weeks ago I got a triangle next to my Apple Mail Inbox and could neither send nor receive email. I have used ATT for DSL and my email address for over two years without this problem. I have checked all my settings with ATT and they claim they have even "rebuilt" my mailbox and all is good. But unless I use a browser to log into webmail first, Mail will not work. The user name/password/port info is all correct, but Mail cannot connect. Even when the "keep me logged in" box is checked when I log in to webmail, Mail will stop working if I close out the browser and put the computer to sleep. This is driving me crazy.

    I've had what sounds very similar issue with another DSL ISP: Qwest.
    Ran both Comcast & Qwest simultaneously (alternately, not really concurrently)
    for awhile & got sporadic blips & failures to connect.
    I never could establish conclusively whether it was the ISP, or a local client problem.
    I think its the ISP. Had other email annoyances with them that never quite got resolved
    Sometimes my mail was left on the webmail server & never got delivered & would do so, same as you describe.
    Its never anyone's fault, or problem...
    I doubt they'd tell you if it was an issue on their end, if it not resolved.

  • The button on my Ipod Touch (the big one just below the screen) will not work when I press it. Nothing happens, when before it would wake my IPod out of sleep mode, and exit out of programs I was using. Now, no reactions. What should I do?

    The button on my Ipod Touch (the big one just below the screen) will not work when I press it. Nothing happens, when before it would wake my IPod out of sleep mode, and exit out of programs I was using (ex. ITunes or Safari to main screen) . Now, no reactions. When I press the button, it appears to be more indented then it was before. What should I do? Do I need to get it fixed or replaced, or is this a problem I can fix on my own? Whatever it is, I really need some advice. Thanks in advance.

    I have IOS 7 5S and using mail. Receiving works great. Sending mail will not work. Using Centurylink. On my IOS 6 Iphone 4 it works great. Compared settings and they are identical. Now what?

    Well, this is a recurring issue for many users...a small percentage of users but still a bug.  Report the issue here to Apple:  www.apple.com/feedback
    iOS7.0.3 will be released next week, which as of now, I know is primarily for an iMessage but hopefully it will clear up some of these email issues some are also having.

    What is the error that you are seeing? Try to login using another App like GameCenter or iMessage? Also try logging in to other Apps like Facebook to check if it is your Internet connection problem.

  • My markup in mail will not work because the markup extension in not installed. How do I download the markup extension.

    I have installed Yosemite and markup in mail will not work because the markup extension in not installed. How do I download the markup extension.

    hi guys,
    what rraiszadeh      and hambros     said are correct.
    go to your desktop, look for 'Macintosh HD' icon
    [double click]
    window opens.
    look for 'system'
    [double click]
    double click on 'Library'
    look for 'Frameworks'
    click on drop down grey arrow.
    double click on 'versions'
    double click on 'A'
    double click on 'resources'
    you will find 'WIDGET SIMULATOR' in there
    double click on it.
    NEXT,
    Go to Application/Preview, then right clicking on Preview and selecting "Show Package Contents."  Then go to Contents/Plugins/Markup.
    drag that icon into the opened 'widget simulator' program.
    VOILA!

  • I have a folder with 10 folders inside it, 8 of the folders will not function when I use "show view options".

    I have a Folder with 10 Folders inside it, 8 of the Folders will not function when I use "show view options", they always default back the default.  The "show view options" works on all my other Folders in my system, even on the first two of the Folder in question.  How can I correct it?  I have tried every thing I can think of, even deleting the Folders & reintalling them.  For some strange reason the "show view options" only does not work on the last 8 Folders in the Folder in question.

    Instead GarageBand recognize my keyboard and i can play normally, also, if it can help, those are the Audio and Midi Logic Preferences and the Controller Surfaces Setup with the keyboard connected :

    There was an issue with messaging in the original software on the C3, so make sure that you are up-to-date. To check your software version try *#0000#
    Latest software release for Nokia C3-00 is 08.63
    Your service provider may not have the latest nokia version available, but make sure you have the most recent you can get.
