HT4061 Cannot receive emails on ipad

Hi I have recently purchased an iPad and have been using it ok. In the last few days every time I try and retrieve my mail on it it says a message "the mail server imap.gmail.com is not responding, verify you have entered the correct account info into mail settings" I am not technical at all, and have asked my son in law to look too who is very clever in this sort of thing, but he cannot clear the problem. any ideas please?

You may have lost your wifi connection.

    I cannot receive emails on my ipad but I can send them. When I try to fetch emails a pop up box tells me to says verify your incoming email setting in settings.  I have, it is correct as I am receiving emails on my iPhone with the same incoming address.  I have tried deleting it and putting it in again but that does work. The wifi is working fine when using the Internet. Has anyone any ideas what is happening and how I can rectify the problem?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • TS3899 recently changed ISP, now cannot send emails on iPad but can receive them, help

    recently changed ISP, now cannot send emails on iPad but can receive them

    Make sure that your username and password are set in the outgoing mail servers setting.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • I cannot receive email properly now. When I open mail, it says that is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, it gives me my newest ones. But this takes a long time. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right setting

    I cannot receive email properly on either my IPad or my IPhone. I have had them for over a year and they have always worked fine. Until three days ago, when they both started acting up. On the IPad, when I open mail, it says it is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, which takes quite a while to get to, I finally get the most recent ones. The IPad is sending emails just fine.
    On my IPhone, when I open mail, it says it is downloading 100 emails, but it doesn't do that. And it gives me no new emails at all. The IPhone is sending email just fine.
    I have already deleted the email accounts on both devices and reinstalled them. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right settings. The Outlook email on my desktop is working perfectly.

    WMV is a heavily-compressed format/CODEC, and the processing time will depend on several factors:
    Your CPU, which is not that powerful in your case
    Your I/O sub-system, which is likely a single HDD on your laptop
    The source footage. What is your source footage?
    Any Effects added to that footage. Do you have any Effects?
    Each of those will have an impact on the time required.
    The trial has only one main limitation - the watermark. Now, there are some components, that have to be activated, but are not with the trial, but they would be evident with Import of your source footage, if it's an issue.
    Good luck,

  • Cannot receive emails in iCloud Mail

    I am using iCloud Mail on my iMac (Yosemite 10.10.2), iPad 2 (iOS 8.1.2) and iPhone 4 (iOS 6.1.3).
    Because the iPhone is still on iOS 6, I have not enabled iCloud Drive on either the iMac or iPad.
    I can send emails but cannot receive emails, except emails which I send to myself.
    I have tried deleting my account and then reinstalling, to no avail.
    I have also tried sending and receiving from within iCloud.com with the same results as above.
    When I initially set this up, it all worked fine over the three devices.
    Would really appreciate some advice to fix the problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok let me summazite my case :
    In Office via wifi or enernet
    1. My account failed to login
    2. The other family account no issue
    In Office via hotspot from my iPhone using 3G
    1. all accounts are working
    At Home either wifi or 3G - No issue at all
    I called Apple in Hong Kong, they said there are many users reporting the same problem, and they are investigating. Suggested me to reset the router and changing password, both do not solve .

  • I cannot receive emails to a new email address on my iphone 4

    I cannot receive emails to a new email address on my iphone 4. It is coming up with the message "cannot get mail. The Mail server ..... is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings"

    more info please?
    internet mail accounts will set up easily.   If your email is a hotmail, outlook, godaddy, or other email, you have to setup from both email end and the settings on your iPad.

  • I cannot receive emails on my iMac

    This only started yesterday had been fine up until then but suddenly I cannot receive emails, any idea's

    Might be too simple an answer, but some have reported mail dropouts from the mail server side that fix themselves after a bit of time. Also, have you restarted yet? And try a Permissions Repair in Disk Utility (Utilities Folder).

  • Suddenly i cannot receive emails - cannot connect to server

    cannot receive emails. message says cannot connect to server. have checked and everything looks okay.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If the issue persists...
    Delete the Email Account and then Re-add it.

  • I cannot receive email because Inbox is full? which is not full..

    ISP Telfort Webmail works but I cannot receive email through Thunderbird ! Yesterday I received 7 emails 1/2 hour later I could not receive email. The message I receive as follows:
    "Postbox is full and cannot receive any more email, please remove old email to make room for new email ".
    Can someone please help to resolve this?
    Thanks, Fred

    dear Airmail,
    I have checked and removed nearly all email from my webmail. I have emptied the trashcan and I have 4gb of space allocated and have about 1.5 gb in use.
    The message is placed everytime I try to receive new email: The message is:
    De map Postvak IN is vol en kan geen bijkomende berichten meer bevatten. Verwijder oude of ongewenste berichten en comprimeer de map om plaats te maken voor meer berichten.
    In other words the Inbox is full and I cannot receive new email. Remove old or unwanted messages to make room for more messages.
    with warm regards,
    all_fred
