I finally upgraded my 4S but won't receive email (Gmail)

I recently bought a MacBook Air and was just going through the process of updating/connecting all my Apple devices
I have the MB Air, a personal iPhone 4S (set up to receive Gmail), a work iPhone 5 (set up to receive work email) and 2 iPads, both getting Gmail - the 1st gen is permanently connected to my tv and the 3 is mobile with me.
I avoided upgrading my 4s to iOS 7 until now. I was on an iOS 5 version. I decided to do it now to take full advantage of the ecosystem :-) Since upgrading, my 4S no longer receives email. My ipad 3 does. I get "The mail server imap.gmail.com is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings". Not sure what's causing this. I also created an iCloud email but I did that before upgrading and it was working fine then.
Thanks!

I found the answer elsewhere so thought I would post it. Just delete the account and add it again. So simple. Blush!

Mail opens but won't receive emails (Mail 2.0.5 on 10.4.3)

I had recently upgraded to 10.4.3, and shortly after had to have my iBook (G3 800mhz) sent off to have it's logic board replaced. Now that i have it back, I've found when I open Mail, the program will open and the grey wheel symbol by the inbox spins and spins but never receives my emails from a POP account. I know it is not my ISP as I have a iMac G5 and can receive email on it and have never had a problem getting email on both of my computers from the same account. The G5 is still on 10.4.2
Has anyone encountered this?

More than likely. Apple hasn't specifically said there won't be another 4.x update, but I seriously doubt they'd bother with the impending release of iOS 5. The CDMA and GSM phones use different chipsets, which is why there is a disparity between the two right now. iOS 5 should unify the code base and get things back in sync.

E72 sends email, but won't receive

I posted this last week at the end of a year old post, but only received word from the original poster telling that his fix was to get an I-Phone. After many years of dealing with Nokia idiosyncrasies, several months ago, I too gave up and got an I-Phone. It is beautifully reliable. Unfortunately, my daughter's phone died, and a friend gave me a new E72 for her. It looks like I'm back to Nokia reliability. Can anyone help restore my continually fading faith in Nokia? Here's my problem:
I've set up email manually, through the set up wizard, and I'm attempting to point "Sync Email " to one the of many accounts now in my phone. The email accounts can send, but won't receive. I have gotten into a never ending loop:
The help screen says to "To start synchronising email messages between your device an the e-mail server, select options>synchronise" However, there is no "synchronise" under options.
If I go into "messaging">options>settings>email", all the emails accounts that I have created show, but if I go into "messaging">options>settings>sync email", it shows "Mailbox in Use" "None".
When I click on "none", I get the message "No Mailbox defined. Define now?
Sure, I'll try it again. I click "yes"
My old friend the email set up wizard appears. Create another account.
Goto 1
I've contacted Nokia. First, I was told to pull the battery and wait 5-10 mins. Same problem. Next, I was told to do a factory reset. Same problem. Finally, I was told that if it wasn't a tested pop3 (gmail, yahoo, etc), Nokia doesn't support it. I doesn't seem to matter that every Nokia I have had in the past work with my email server.
Has anyone found a Nokia-based solution to this problem?
Thank you for putting up with my frustration and for offering any possible solutions that you can suggest.

Hey Jason,
I have ran into this situation quite a few times in my experiences with fax issues, it very well could be the digital line itself. My last suggestions for you would be to try a power reset on the printer, and also try a filter on the fax line to see if that could help the line. If you are still having issues with sending faxes, give us a call to our technical support to see if there are any more options for you.
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
Here is an example of a filter:

Email handler receives email but won't transmit emails:VIDCHAT/ICHAT OPTION

Email handler receives email but won't transmit emails:VIDCHAT/ICHAT OPTION is non-functional...
After three decades of Windows I decided to find my spouse a birthday/Christmas IMAC but if I don't do something soon about this learning curve we may part company after 44 years...
Is there someone out there that can assist me with these issues?
:>/

Okay, now that I'm in the right forum I see that this seems to be an ongoing problem. I checked the antivirus and that didn't do anything.
I did change the port from 25 to 587 and that seems to have opened up the outgoing emails. They've seemed to been sent since they're no longer in the outbox.
BUT...now I can't seem to receive emails. Ugh......
I ran the Verizon email fix app and it says it couldn't send an email now and I should call the 800 #. What the heck is going on here when everything was working perfectly before?!

imap.mail.me.com and smtp.mail.me.com (outgoing), but this should have been set automatically, did you completely sign out of iCloud (System Preferences>iCloud and is Mail activated in Mail, Contacts and Calendars as well as iCloud?
If you are still signed in at System Preferences>Mobile Me, sign out.

I have been unable to upgrade for almost a year. The upgrade loads partially, but won't complete.

I'm on Mac OS 10.6.7, computer is about a year and a half old. I think I may have had one successful upgrade very early on, to 3.5.2. Every time I've tried to upgrade since then, it starts but won't complete. It's getting to the point where this has got to be upgraded, and I simply can't get it to move. I've noticed Firefox has been crashing, which it almost never used to do. Help!!

If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

USB Apple modem sends faxes fine but won't receive

I've set up an Apple USB modem and while I can send Faxes fine, it won't receive: the call comes in, the little message at the top margin of the screen says "ringing", but it just won't pick up! I have it set to answer after 2 rings... Any ideas?

8520 will connect with internet via wifi but won't receive or send emails

have recently changed my carrier/service provider and all is set up to recieve texts, use the internet (default setting to hotspot) but now won't let me send or receive emails. I've gone to email set up in setup and tried to re-establish my email link but it keeps saying 'your device had a problem connecting to the server' - how can this be when it connects to tthe server for normal internet use?
Any ideas gratefully recieved.
thanks

On your BlackBerry device, go to:
1. Options > Advanced > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register.
2. Resend your service books from your carrier BIS site:
From your handheld device:   http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB15402
Go to the Personal Email Set Up icon and log in. Then under Help!, select Service Books, then select Send service Books.
From your desktop PC: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02830
North American Carriers - scroll down to select your carrier
WorldWide Carriers - Find your carrier on the list
3. With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot. This reboot, even if you have already done this, is often needed to install the service books.

Ipad won't receive email, but can send

My ipad has suddenly stopped receiving emails for my main account. I can send emails ok. Have checked the mail settings against my iPhone, which are the same. Ipad is 8.1.2, iPhone is 7.1. Tried rebooting, deleting and recreating email account. Any ideas ?
Thanks
Rob

I am having the exact same issue. No changes that I am aware of that would cause this. even if Fetch were set, as soon as you swipe down on mail, it should load. But it looks for mail and then shows nothing new. At the bottom it states the last time mail was received (for me it was only a few hours ago). Just like Mintok above, I have reset iPad, deleted and re added email acct. I have 2 email accounts, both with Yahoo. My other account works just fine. My email also works just fine on my iPhone and computer. It also works when I go through the internet to access the yahoo mail. Just my iPad and just the one account and only with receiving emails). I did change password just in case. but it says it connects, it just won't download to that very specific email account.

HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177 Series Fax sends but won't receive faxes

I can send faxes using HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177 Series Fax but I cannot receive them. I have faxed test pages and the setup is correct. Any suggestions?

Hello DBrad8,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to receive a fax using the Laserjet MFP M177. I will do my best to assist you! First, I need to find out what type of added features do you have on your fax line? Please post these information on this thread.
Do you have an answer machine on this line? If so, how many rings to answer is this set to?
Do you have an Internet Service on this line?
Please follow this entire HP document on Cannot Send or Receive Faxes. Run a fax test page and let me know if everything passed or if anything failed. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

HT1694 I changed my hotmail password. I then changed that password in settings, it receives emails on my iPad but won't send emails and gives me message that my password is incorrect.

I changed my hotmail password. I then changed the password in settings, now my device iPad will receive emails but gives me an error message when I send emails that password is incorrect. How do I fix it?

Try this. Go deeper into the settings.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
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.

Entourage Receives But Won't Send Emails

My Entourage had been working perfect for about a year until 2 weeks ago when it stopped sending emails. I can receive emails but when I attempt to send them the following message comes up:
"An operation on the server timed out. The server may be down, overloaded, or there may be too myuch net traffic. "
If that happened once I'd be understand, but I havent been able to send mail now for 2 weeks so I know its not the server. Can anyone help?

Hi Joel.
Couple of things.
1) Have you talked to your mail provider to make sure that you have your settings correct, still? Or have you triple checked your settings?
2) Any changes to firewall settings?
3) Did you add/change any other software on the day that mail stopped sending?
(Quit Entourage for the next steps)
4) Repair Permissions?
5) Do keychainAccess firstaid, or remove the password in Keychain for this server. Then restart the Mac. Then restart Entourage
Someone else might have some ideas

After upgrading to Yosemite, I don't receive email from Gmail users

Using a MacBook Pro, 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD internal hard drive. OSX v10.10.2
My primary email address is an .mac/.me/.icloud email address.
Recently upgraded to Yosemite. After doing so, I am having trouble receiving emails from Gmail users (I am not having trouble sending emails from my Gmail account, as many people have).
I asked 8 of my friends with Gmail email addresses to email me a test. I received 4 of these emails immediately after they were sent, the other 4 email took anywhere from 4 to 48 hours for me to receive.
Anyone else have this problem, and if so, any solutions? Any help is greatly appreciated.

There have been various posts about delayed Gmail e-mail delivery to iCloud e-mail addresses, but so far, no solutions. Gmail uses a nonstandard form of IMAP e-mails, which may be causing the problem.

PDF files won't open in received emails (GMail) since update 5.1.1

I receive emails with attached PDF files for my work, but since the latest update 5.1.1 the PDF files will not download on my iPad 3 wifi. The files are usually around only 50kb in size, but when I tap the attachment in the email, nothing happens. The files also won't work on my iPhone 4S after the latest update too.
I never had a problem before the latest update, any ideas?

MIght be helpful to disable Adobe plugin by going to Adobe Reader's Preferences -> Internet and unchecking "Display PDF in browser using".
Then dump the atrocious bloated Reader.

I've upgraded to mountain lion and cannot receive email

Can anyone help?
I've upgraded to mountain lion and now cannot receive email in any account although I can send emails
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem but with a worringly more complex situation. I too can see TC in finder. I can see the backup disk for my iMac in TM. I can also see the backup disk for my MBP in TM (this sits on a HD that is daisy chained to my 1TB TC).
Here's the worring bit. My MBP was upgraded to Moutain Lion but my iMac is still on Lion. Both have the same issue in that all disks can be seen as normal but not connect to make backups.
I receive the notificaiton that includes: "cannot connect...xxxtimecapsule.local. Verify server name or IP address. "
I have made a backup since the Mountain Lion upgrade with no issues then suddenly it cannot connect to repsective backup disks on either machine. I was attempting a restore of my MBP from my backup so I could have a cleaner disk to create a new partition for windows. When I choose the backup disk to restore from (in recovery mode) was when it failed to connect and its been downhill from there.
Router works fine and I am still connected to my dsl modem,
I have reset TC and all machines. I am now at a complete loss!

I finally upgraded my 4S but won't receive email (Gmail)
