I get an intermittent " Cannot Get Mail. The user name or Password is incorrect" I haven,t touch any settings. Any ideas?

That usually means that the mail server is busy and rejects the Mail App's request for a mail update.

TS3899 Cannot get mail the user name or password for Suddenlink is incorrect

I have not once had an issue with this. I have not changed my password or anything. I have the iPhone 4. All of a sudden, the message error pops up that says " Cannot get Mail" The User name or Password for Suddenlink is incorrect. Please help!!!!!!

All customers should now have the ability to send and receive email through Suddenlink’s email service, and the vast majority should have full service, including access to all mail, folders, contacts, and settings. We will continue working until the remainder of customers have full email service restored. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience as we continue to work to restore full email service for all customers.

Check your email settings (on your iPad) for that account and make sure the username and/or password are correct.

I had a power failure 2 days ago, have power now, but cannot send email from my iPad. Everything was fine before that. The box says cannot send mail, the user name or password for Gmail is incorrect. I haven't changed anything. I need help. Thanks

Hi
I had a power failure 2 days ago, my computer is running again, but now I cannot send email from my iPad using Cox or my gmail account. I am receiving mail in my Cox account but not my gmail account.It was working fine until the power failure. It keeps telling me, the user name or password for Gmail is incorrect. I have not changed anything. I don't know what is wrong. Can anyone help me? Thanks

I agree, unplug and replug your router, then reset your iPad by holding down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red power down slider, and wait til you see the silver apple. let it reboot and then try your connection.
Chances are rebooting the router will help. You may also need to talk to cox. They may need to reset something on their end.

Bummer Message: Cannot Get Mail The user name or passowrd for "

I have had the iPad 2 for one week and was able to access two gmail accounts (mine and my wife's). . . until this morning when one of them (mine) starting giving me the message: "Cannot Get Mail The user name or password for "####" is incorrect." The other gmail account is still accessible. So what is the solution--if any?

If your having problems sending email - go into your email settings and see if you can enter a password for your outgoing mail server same password as your incoming mail server.

Iphone 4 "cannot get mail" as user name or password incorrect.

I have an iphone 4 and it has stopped updating mail. Three days ago I incorrectly typed in my mobile me password and had to reset it. I have updated my mac account details for my mobile me account on my phone but I keep getting "cannot get mail" as user name or password for.mac account is incorrect. Im not sure what to do and this is very frustrating as Im sure it is something very simple! Any help gratefully appreciated.

Did you try to delete the MobileMe account on the phone and set it up again after that?
You can also try to replace the account info on the phone during the next sync, if you select this option in the info pane, Advanced Section, with your phone connected to iTunes.

Delete the email account and re-enter it from scratch.

TS4532 My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange using the web browser. The connection worked until IOS 6.1.2 was Install

My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange with the same parameters using the web browser.
I bought the phone when it came out last October. The connection did not work at first, then started without warning in December. It worked perfectly for 2 months then stopped again when IOS 6.1.2 was Installed.
Help please!

I have forwarded these questions about the version of Exchange server that is being used and whether Microsoft host the mai themselves to the IT Dept but I will not get a reply from them until tomorrow.
In the meantime I have also tried:
Deleting and re-creating the account AGAIN!
And re-setting the phone (recommended as a solution to a similar problem with an iPad in another forum.
But please remember that:
The phone would not connect for 2 months after I bought it
Then started working unexpectedly in December
Then stopped working again when IOS 6.1.2. was installed
Also why am I the only person affected by this when colleagues with iPhone 3s and 4s who use the same mail system are not (I am still trying to find one with an iPhone V to see if their's works).
Like I said I think that there must be a fault, either with my own phone or with iPhone Vs in general.

I get an intermittent " Cannot Get Mail. The user name or Password is incorrect" I haven,t touch any settings. Any ideas?
