HT1393 Cannot set up email account on iphone.

No matter what I do in setting up my primary account on my iphone it keeps telling me my username and/or password is incorrect. I'm 100% sure it's correct. The account was working perfectly and nothing changed. I still use the email on my desk top so I know it is valid. It may even fetch the mail occasionally.Does anyone have any ideas?

If this is a gmail account you may need to go here to unlock it for you phone: https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha

Cannot set up email account on blackberry curve 9360

Although I can surf the net, I am unable to set up an email account. I don't understand why it is an "enterprise account". What does this mean? I simply want to set up a hotmail account on this mobile. I already have a hotmail account on my laptop and all I want to do is to be able to send and receive emails on the Blackberry. I cannot get past the requirement to enter an Activation Password. When I enter my normal password here it goes off trying to acquire a service connection. Eventually a screen says "Activation request failed. A service connection is unavailable. OK.
Setting up my iPhone was easy compared to this. What am I doing wrong?

Setting up email account on iphone 4s

Can someone run through the steps of setting up emails on my new phone. I don't seem to be able to understand terminology (ieOutgoing Mail Server 'Host Name') and Incoming Mail Server 'Host Name' User name and password. Is the password relating to my provider? Also was does IMAP and POP mean and which one do I choose?

Yes - same issue. I am able to work my yahoo email fine on my iPad, but just bought the iPhone 4s today and cannot set it up for the same reason you state.
I walked through the advanced sections of both iPad and iPhone and they are set up the same, so I have no idea why this is not working.

Nokia X6 - Cannot Set Up Email Accounts

Hi folks,
I'm trying to set up my email accounts on my Nokia X6 but it's just not happening.
I use the email set-up wizard and when I put in my email address and click "ok" it just keeps coming back with "unable to connect to server. Try again later"
I've also tried by going into my Nokia Ovi Account settings and "verifying" my email account but no luck.
This is the same for my yahoo mail and google mail.
Any ideas as this is just plain crazy!
Thanks
Ian

Was just thinking your connection may not be very good, if you connect to wifi, it may register to the server that's all ! You could try Emoze as well, shouldn't need to, but it's free and it works !

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.

Cannot set up email account on Bold 9900

I have upgraded from a Blackberry Bold 9000 to a 9900 and I find that my email accounts don't work. When I click on Options>Email Accounts to enable me to edit the POP and SMTP settings, nothing happens. Please, can anybody advise me how to do this?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support and to be sure that they have moved all of your account and services over to your new device.
Good luck!

Cannot delete GoDaddy Email Account from iPhone 5s

Hello. I'm having a strange issue. So first off, the email account I'm referencing is a GoDaddy account. I recently changed my password, and somehow outgoing mail stopped working, saying that the password is wrong. I've re-enter the correct password many times, and it still doesn't work. So then I thought, screw it, I'll delete and then re-add the account, but there is no 'Delete' option in the account settings, as shown in all the tutorials. It is not an issue of Restriction settings, as they are off, but I turned them on, and made sure that mail wasn't restricted and it made no difference. Anyone else having this issue? Anyone have any idea what to do?

Also, I have two other email accounts on my phone, one AOL, and one iCloud, and both of them appear as you would expect when you go into Settings: with toggle buttons for 'Mail' and 'Notes' and a 'Delete Account' option. But in the GoDaddy account, there isn't any of those options, just the specific settings (Incoming/Outgoing Server) and no 'Delete' option. And like I said, it isn't a 'Restrictions' issue. I'm stumped. I've attached screenshots to help explain what I'm talking about.
*And obviously the empty fields are filled out correctly, I've deleted them in the photos for privacy reasons....

Unable to set up email account on iPhone

Hello everyone,
Please bear with me because I am new to the iPhone and a recent convert from Blackberry. OK, here is my problem.
I have 3 email addresses, 2 of them have set up just fine and dandy on my iPhone, the third refuses to get past the bit where you type in the imcoming and outgoing server bits (I've copied the setting exactly from Microsoft Outlook so I'm pretty sure I'm doing it right). It says that 'secure connection failed' and that 'the certificate may not be valid', I've tried clicking on continue anyway but nothing happens, it just tries for ages to verify the account. I'd be grateful if someone could please help.
Best Wishes,
Jules

A quick Google search tells me that Webmail is an Earthlink system.
Perhaps one of these POP server settings will work?

If you have an IT department or Internet administrator within your company, they may also be of assistance.
Best of luck!

HT204053 I cannot set up icloud on my iphone. When I follow the instructions, it always says check email but when I check my email there is no email about this. Should I delete the account. What is this delete account

I cannot set up icloud on my iphone 4s. When I go to settings it always says check your email but when I check my email there is none sent to me.

Check your spam folder to be sure it isn't there. If not, try going to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and Manage your account. There should be a link there to resend the verification email.

Having issue setting up email account on the iphone.

having issue setting up email account on the iphone. Going into settings mail, contacts, calendars...it goes back to the welcome screen. How do I delete all email accounts and set up from scratch?

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.

Setting up email on my iphone

I am setting up email on my iphone. A window came up stating it cannot connect, do I want to try without SSL. I figure from some of the discussion out there I probably need SSL as a security for my iphone. So..now I am at the part where it asks me for my name, email account, password. I have typed that in. A new page shows up with a button for IMAP and one for POP. Under those buttons there are three sections. the first section has my name, email address and a description. The second section is titled Incoming Mail Server displaying HOST name, user name & password. The third section is titledOutgoing Mail Server with the same information as the second section. When I save a window comes up and says this account may not be able to send or received emails. Are you sure you want to save? Before now, I have entered this info several times before I came to you. What is the Host Name? It looks like one should be inbound emails and the other outbound emails. Where do I get the Host name?

Iphones will automatically enter the correct setting when an account is created. delete account and add it back. It will ask for your email addy and password.

I'm unable to delete an existing email account, using iPhone 4 and latest OS. Anyone resolve this problem?

I thought maybe you had a restriction set to Accounts but if you can get to the final screen that's not it. I'd try resetting the phone. First do a hard reset. Turn the phone off then press the Home button an Power button at the same time and hold for 10 seconds or so until the logo appears. If that doesn't work go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. That will basically restore the phone to a like new condition but keep your data, music, photos, etc. intact. Do a back up first though.
