HT2736 Recipient not receiving gift email

I have gifted an app using my iPhone and the recipent has not recieved it. I triple-checked the email address, resent the gift several times using both iOS and my MacBook, and checked the recipient's email filters/spam folders. I have now reported the gift by using the "Report a Problem" button next to the gift in iTunes.
I noticed a few very similar problems/questions posted within the last couple days. Please solve this, I want to play games with my friends!
EDIT: As soon as I posted this the recipent recieved several emails containing the gift a few hours after initially sending it. This is significantly longer than this usually takes, which is near instantly. Hopefully this gets cleared up and anyone with a similar problem can reference this question. Thank you.

interesting.
i had the same problem with the same game = carcassonne.
wierd.
usually gift apps are instant

    Purchased gift cards and have been charged but recipient not received them despite resending t least 6 times

    They've checked the spam folder as well as the inbox on the email account that you sent them to ? If they aren't in spam either then try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    The purchase history on your iTunes account will only show purchases from the iTunes stores (iTunes, app store, ibookstore, Mac app store), not from Apple online or bricks-and-mortar stores.
    Does anything show on your credit card ? If the email is genuine then it's possible that your and their email addresses are similar and that they gave the wrong id (or the store typed it incorrectly), it doesn't necessarily mean that anybody has access to your account.
    For the contact, you will initially just receive an acknowledgement email, the proper reply may take 24 (possibly 48) hours.

  • I recently uploaded a gift card with a balance of $25.00, I make a purchase in a game for $5.99 and my balance on my gift card is now $12.18.  I did not receive an email confirming the purchase and do not see any activity on my account. Where is my money?

    The receipt usually takes more time to receive. I got my receipt from about 7:00pm yesterday at about 10:00pm today.

    We are not blocking anything from Apple.com. (We do block any traffic from the Far East.)
    Getting all email from other email providers. Not receiving any email from APPLE.COM.
    Any Ideas??

    All the clues indicate this is not the problem on recipient Server/Client. We are out of control for the message item even doesn't touch our domain. Maybe we need to contact ISP or resolve the issue on Sender site.

  • I am trying to reset my security questions, but I have not received the email with instructions. What is the problem?

    I initially created my apple account years ago. I am trying to reset my security questions because my answers are continually incorrect. I pressed the link that sends reset security questions info to my alt. address, but I have not received the email with instructions. I have resent the email several times and checked both of the emails I have set up with my apple account to no avail. I have tried everything that is provided in the support article about the issue and my problem has not be resolved. I've even deleted my alt email from the apple account and then reassigned it and tried again, however, I still have not received the email. Without knowing the answers to my security questions, I cannot purchase anything from the iTunes store, which I have been trying to do.
    I do not know what the problem is and I am asking for any resolutions. Please and thank you!

    Go to the Apple ID Security site from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 or call the AppleCare support number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with the Account Security Team...either can help you reset your questions/answers.

  • Not receiving some emails from specific sender.

    Hi.I just started getting the problem of not receiving some emails. I have not had this problem with the sender until yesterday.  My sender is sending me emails from gmail, some with attachments and some without, to my comcast email and it's not getting through. It is just one specific sender that I know of. I narrowed it down to my comcast account because I had the sender send myself the email to my comcast address and cc me on my gmail address. I received it on my gmail account but not my comcast account. I use Outlook for comcast but I even checked the webmail on comcast with nothing there. I checked the spam folder also and it's not there. Please help, these are important emails. Thank you.

    Same issue, as far as I know it is just 1 person.  But I have no way of knowing.  I also had them CC my Gmail and it went through to Gmail but not my comcast.  I then had them use a secondary comcast email and it didn't go through.  Comcast seems to be blocking this person for some unexplained reason.  It's frustrating and so far has cost me $525 because they thought I was ignoring them.  They are using my Gmail until I get it straightened out, so the financial loss shouldn't increase, I just hope others aren't having the same problem and I don't know about it.  

  • Not receiving Alert emails in TFS Projects

    Hi 
    When users in TFS are not receiving Alert emails for any of the notifications. I tried testing the email feature from TFS Admin console and its working fine (Received email)
    We enabled the send email in GUI.. However when we try to verify in command prompt , it shows as disabled.

    I was able to reproduce this with a desktop install of Team Foundation Server 2013, version 12.0.30723.0 (Tfs2013.Update3) and 12.0.31101.0 (Tfs2013.Update4).
    The command-line help for tfsconfig configuremail says:
    TfsConfig configureMail /Enabled:<true|false>
    /FromEmailAddress:<email address>
    /SmtpHost:<SMTP host name>
    Changes the From: email address and the SMTP host used for Team Foundation
    Notifications.
    I was able to enable or disable email alerts from the command line by setting the Enabled parameter to true or false.
    However when I ran the command without the parameter Enabled, it set the "Enable Email Alerts" checkbox to false, and then I got the message "Email alerts disabled."
    Notice that this parameter is not mentioned in the
    documentation.
    This behavior seems to be a documentation bug or tool bug, depending on the perspective. It might be that the intended default behavior was to disable alerts if no parameter was passed. If so it needs to be documented.
    However, the logical expectation would be for the command without parameters to just show its current Enabled, SMTP Server and Email From Address values. From this perspective this is a bug as it has an unintended and undocumented side effect. You might
    want to report this at the
    Microsoft Connect website.

  • Not receiving iCloud emails

    I haven't received a single email to my iCloud (@me.com) account since Friday - I know there must be some sort of problem because I have ordered from Amazon and Tesco, who always send confirmation emails but I have received nothing. I've already checked my settings and there is nothing being forwarded anywhere. I don't know what to do, I feel like I am missing important emails and haven't a clue how to fix it. The problem is the same on all of my devices - using icloud.com, my iPhone, and my iPad. Anyone have any advice?!?

    Hi nickp0423,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not receiving any emails to your iCloud email account on multiple devices. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a great day,

  • Not receiving bt emails?

    My email telling me my bt bill is ready online and my bt confirmation email for paying my bill online in my bt have not been received. I always get an email for both these things. Any ideas why I have not received these emails?
    Thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The customer service bloke had no idea and could not help. That is the BT solution to not receiving a confirmation email when you pay using their online system. Absolutely no help what so ever. I have the live chat transcript- which when the poor english is deciphered, promises help in 24 hours. The famous BT lie. I will not be using their online payment system again as i do not feel it is secure as it gives no confirmation of payment. I do not want my bank details going around overseas when i thought the system was secure and electronically automated. I have contacted my bank regarding the matter and they agree with me i should not risk my card details in an unsafe system.

  • Not receiving confirmation emails

    I logged into the the Creative Cloud and I am hit with a message that says I must confirm my email. However, no matter how many times I hit "resend" I am not receiving the email (I added adobe.com to my "safe sender list"). I never received a confirmation email of my order, either. This concerns me if you are going to rely on my confirming my email address to offer services that I may have problems using your new service. Any ideas?

    Agreed, but its still under final brush as if I know and would be live on 11th ,
    I would not say it is the small version its more for the trailer of the film, with jus few shots here and there,

  • Not Receiving Test Emails

    One of our clients is trying to send an email campaign however they are having trouble sending the test email. They are sending it to themselves and see the confirmation alert that says "Success, test email sent" however the email does not arrive in their inbox.
    I have tested this on my system and have the same trouble. I have tried on PC and Mac, Tunderbird, Gmail, Yahoo and my client uses Outlook on Mac) - nothing. I have checked my clients webmail account and nothing there either.
    I have also created a new test email campaign and still not receiving test emails.
    Can someone please look into this - I have submitted an urgent support case but have not heard back. My client is not happy and needs to send theor campaign IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!
    The site is www.angeldesigns.com.au

    Hi Mary and all,
    The issue related to email campaigns and other system emails has been resolved. However, there is a large number of emails in the queue, so sending might be delayed.
    We have not had any issues with the email service Mary, so I'm not sure what problem is your customer having at the moment. Can you please give us more details about what is the problem that your client is experiencing?
    As for the green buttons, they are for website rendering and the email service and they are updated automatically based on the system monitors. They don't reflect the email campaign status, which is updated manually. However, I'll work with the team to have the layout changed so that it's cleared.
    Thanks and please accept our apologies for this inconvenience.
    Kind regards,
    Florin

    If you are using the old Firefox Start Page - http://www.google.com/firefox - Google has something messed up on that page. I'm starting to wonder if they are charging Mozilla for the click-thru's to the Firefox download page??
    The new default Firefox Start Page / homepage - '''about:home''' - doesn't give users that incorrect message.
