HT1430 cannot access mail, hotmail is not recognizing my password

cannot get mail, hot mail not recongnizing password

This is likely a hotmail issue. Try their website, and see if it works from there.
If it works, remove the account, and re-add it

try resetting your phone by turning it off and back on again. The servers may still be having a hard time keeping up, so you may just need to wait a little while and try again.

HT1222 I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all. I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either. Help!!!!!!

Paldeng, thanks for the suggestion. I've done all that. I can connect to the server, but apparently they are not recognizing my ID and password. I can use the server program if I don't go through Mail (using the same ID and password). My mother in another state with another provider has had the same email issue, as also my husband on his laptop who uses the same internet connection I do. His worked fine until we had it repaired at the Apple store and all the original programs reloaded (with the required updates, I assume). We can receive email in Mail, we just cannot send.
I contacted my service provider, and we went over my connections. They said it was not their problem and connected me with Apple, resulting in a charge to me because my warranty is long expired. Apple swears it is not their problem, it is the provider, so here I sit. My son was able to fix my Mom's Mail (she's 97) and got my husband's working also, until mine went out, by tweaking connection descriptions and ports remotely. The thing is, we had not messed with any of those settings, so what changed? I just did not want to bother my son again, as he has many other demands on his time.
Since this fiasco with the Mail v4.6 update, I'm wondering if something else was updated that works well with Lion and Mountain Lion, but does not work well with Snow Leopard and Leopard. I think the problem I had with the Mail update was that my Mail program had been renamed to Mail (original), and therefore was not being recognized by the update. Perhaps they had another tweak in there somewhere that is affecting outgoing mail connections?

After changing yahoo mail pswd i cannot access mail on my iPhone

After changing my yahoo mail pswd I cannot access mail on my iphone. All other apps work and I can get mail on my macbook and ipad. For my iphone I get an error message "cannot connect to server". What is wrong?

happened to me this morning, I just went into mail, settings, and then deleted one of the yahoo accounts listed there, not sure how it set up twice, maybe b/c cloud or the restore I did.

Cannot access mail on Icloud

I cannot access mail through Icloud on web. ICloud accepts my name and password but will not access mail . My wife however can access her Icloud mail using the same laptop and browser, works just fine.
How is it possible that my data on apple servers is unaccessible and her's is accessible. Short of calling Apple any ideas?

iCloud email is down for some users. Apple says they're working on it http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app. I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect. Hotmail works fine on Mac. Has anyone had this difficulty

Did you try deleting the mail account, then adding it back? I've read a lot of times that is what needs to happen in order for it to work properly.

Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document. I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password that goes with the hint. Is there anything I can do to access my doc?

Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document. I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password associated with the hint. Is there anything I can do to access my document? i quite the Pages app and restarted it. Now I guess I'll reset the iPad and see if that helps. Thanks!

Interesting that one does not need the password to delete using Finder.
The Pages password protects the contents of the document. If there were a Finder password, it would protect what you might think of as the "file wrapper" ... the stuff around the file content.
Glad it's not vital. I have to say I only pasword protect those Pages documents that are, in fact, vital.
Best of luck.

Mail not recognizing new password

All right so I recently had to change the password on one of my Yahoo.com mail accounts because I could not remember the last one. I have this one linked up the mail application on my computer, however it is not recognizing the new password (yes, I'm typing it in correctly, in fact I'm just copy + pasting it). I also checked keychain and it didn't find any problems apparently when I ran first aid.
How do I get my computer to recognize my new password? This is ridiculous.

Unfortunately it is not recognizing the password still. It recognizes the copy + pasted password on yahoo.com, but when I use the copy + pasted password with apple mail (even after deleting it) it doesn't recognize it.
It was giving me a message that it couldn't connect when I put in the password. However I figured it out. What I had to do was copy the password from what I had, put it into the login area for yahoo.com, have firefox remember the password, then copy that password from firefox's preferences and paste that into the apple password part.
Weird thing is though is when I looked at the two (the one I had kept typed and the copied one from the saved yahoo) they were exactly the same, so I don't know why it wasn't recognizing it.
Thank you for replying to my question though!

Mail is not recognizing my password

Apple is not recognizing my password. I haven't changed anything. It's been that same for years, now it can't access my email. Any ideas?

HT1338 I cannot access my Hotmail account with Safari on my MacBookAir but I can access it on my Mac/Safari and also from my PCs. Has anyone experienced the same? Does anyone know a fix for this?

I cannot access my Hotmail account with Safari on my MacBookAir but I can access it on my Mac/Safari and also from my PCs. Has anyone experienced the same? Does anyone know a fix for this?

To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?

3GS 3.0.1 - Cannot send mail, You did not specify any recipient

Whenever I send a message from iPhone with MobileMe account and then resync the account with server (Push is off), the very same message, already sent with success, appears in Outgoing folder and error pops up saying:
*Cannot send mail, You did not specify any recipient*
See the picture below:
http://gitarzysta.com/iphone/error1.jpg
It cannot be deleted, either - error message pops up saying: *Unable to move message*
http://gitarzysta.com/iphone/error2.jpg
Important: it was sent and received successfully. It is just either iPhone, MobileMe or both that have problems to sync correctly.
On my Mac that I sync with this MobileMe account all is fine.
What can be wrong? There was an old topic here, from 2008, where several users of 3G had exactly the same issue, but no root cause or solution was provided.
Thanks!

Try deleting and manually recreating the account on your iPhone.
If you transferred the account settings from your Mac via the iTunes sync process - selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deselect this for your iPhone sync preferences followed by selecting Apply before doing so.

Cannot Send Mail - You did not specify any recipients

Hi all,
I have an email stuck in my outbox which has the "This message has not been downloaded from the server" issue I have seen on this forum. Everytime I go to my email folders list, I get the 'Cannot Send Mail - You did not specify any recipients' error message. I am unable to trash it, move it as I get the 'Unable to Move Message' error.
Any ideas how I can remove this message and clear my outbox!?
Thanks,

Me too! This is very annoying. I LOVE Apple but this new 3G keeps on throwing curveballs at me. I, too, deleted my e-mail account from my iPhone to get rid of this "unsent message" but with Apple you shouldn't have to do that! Certain that it will happen again, I'm interested if anyone comes up with any fixes so that next time we don't have to delete/add e-mail account.
