I have suddenly lost all content in my emails on my iPad.  Any thoughts anyone?

I have an original ipad, which has suddenly ( a week ago) lost all content in the emails.  I can see who the email is from and the first couple of lines of content, but when opened the content box is empty.  Nothing has changed in the settings, or at least I haven't changed anything and there are no updates I have missed.
Any help would be much appreciated

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't fix it then try closing the Mail app via the iPad’s taskbar : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I have suddenly lost all my reminders in a perticular mail account, how can i get them back on my ipad?

    Ipad2

    How did it get disabled?
    Are these apps that you paid for or your school paid for? If they are yours make sure you have entered your AppleID in Settings > iTunes & App Store and download them again. You don't have to pay again.

  • Suddenly lost ability to receive some emails

    I have suddenly lost the ability to recieve emails from my school. I am in school online and cannot receive forum posts to my email. All was fine and then suddenly they stopped coming in. I usually get 15 or 20 per day as thet are part of a thread. I have contacted my internet provider who thinks this may be a problem on Apple's end. I am receiving emails from others just not my school. I contacted the schools tech support and they say all is fine on their end and with my account. Any thoughts?

    No they do not show up there either. I have not made any account changes in mail either. Just to make sure I went into the account and made sure the rules were correct. I have been on the phone all day with tech support form Time Warner Cable and they have been unable to correct the problem.

  • HT1349 I have suddenly lost the whole of my iTunes library, with the exception of music that I have bought and downloaded from iTunes Store.  It was all there yesterday and I haven't altered anything, as far as I know!

    I have suddenly lost the whole of my iTunes library, with the exception of music that I have bought and downloaded from iTunes Store.  It was all there yesterday and I haven't altered anything, as far as I know!  I hope it's something quite simple?
    Apologies, but none of the communities listed seems to fit this question - so I'm taking pot luck!

    For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

  • I suddenly lost all but 1 song (lost 1000  songs) tonight!

    I suddenly lost all but 1 song (lost 1000+ songs and a number of videos!) tonight! My ipod touch died so I went and charged it. A few hrs later I went to turn on some music but all but one song was gone! What can I do?? I am away from home for a few days, so I can not hook it up to itunes. Will everything go back on once I do? Or is there something I can do now? Has this happened suddenly to anyone before?!?!?

    Things like that can happen when the battery dies,  If you are in the USA and have the latest iOS you can redownload iTunes purchases on the iPod via iCloud beta.  Otherwise, you will have to wait and sync/restore your iPod when you get home.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Have suddenly lost ability to connect to internet. Account and bills up to

    I have suddenly lost ability to connect to the internet, include itunes and App Store. Account and bills up to up date. ANy assistance appreciated

    I am having this problem as well. In the last week or two, my calendars haven't been syncing properly. Nothing goes updates to my main computer from the phone. Then in the last few days I could only access the internet sporadically, today not at all. No map showing in the gps, safari doesn't work, no weather... It says 'Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding'. The 3G wheel is spinning and shows that there is service.
    I reset my phone completely a couple of days ago, reset history/cache, etc in settings, have turned it off and on, etc with no change.

  • My iPad has suddenly lost all sound

    My iPad has suddenly lost all sound.

    All sounds are gone? Did you check the music or videos app for sound? If they have sound, system sounds are muted.
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • My 3Gs suddenly lost all contacts information

    My iphone 3gs suddenly lost all my contacts information. Before I go to the trouble of manually reentering them all I am wondering what might have caused this and if there is a way to get them back?

    You should be syncing your contact to your computer regularly.  Just sync them back to the iphone.

  • I have paid for itunes match and have now lost all my music of my iphone except what I paid for from itunes, 964 songs gone not at all happy.  Can anyone help

    I have paid for itunes match and have now lost all my music off my iphone except what I paid for from itunes, 964 songs gone into the cloud. Can anyone help please?

    Enabling iTunes Match does not delete music from your computer. Why do you think it is now not in the iTunes library if it was before? If all of your music was in the iTunes library then it is also now in the cloud if iTunes has completed it's scan and all the music meets the match requirements. Enable the iCloud Status column in the iTunes browser by switching to Song view and pulling down View > View Options. Select iCloud Status then close the small window. Sort on the new column. Your music should be listed as "purchased," "matched" and "uploaded." Some tracks may be "ineligible." Post back and let us know.

  • My cloud is full, i havent updated in 41 weeks, and my ipod was stolen. have I lost all my music?

    My ipod touch 5 was stolen. I have changed all the passwords for any account that I had on it. The problem now is that I have been traveling without my computer for nearly a year. My cloud is full and I haven't backed anything up. Have I lost all my music purchases as well? Does Apple have a record of the songs I bought and will I be able to get them back?

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I have lost all my data from my iphone during synchronisation.  Can anyone tell me how to get the information back

    I have lost all my data from my iphone during synchronisation.  Can anyone help me?

    You might profit from a visit to a Minneapolis Apple store. With a brand new Mac, I think they will be most helpful - not just with transferring files, but with other advice as well. And I strongly recommend you invest in a back up drive. The Apple folk can help with that as well.
