I saw a message "cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed". Anybody can help pls? I did try to delete the account and add back. Also tried to reset/ reboot the iPad but still effortless.

Hi all, I finally solved the issue. Here I wish to share with you all. First, I delete my hotmail account from mail account. Secondly I reboot my ipad2 with holding sleep and home button at once untill the apple logo is appeared. Then I add back the hotmail account. Done. Hope it helps. Thank you.

  • I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI

    I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI.  I have also been receiving  'Cannot send mail, an error occurred while delivering this message.

        Hmm, that's odd JeanEB. The error message referts to the connection to your email server not to cellular data or connection to wi-fi. Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Select your account and type in your password again. If this doesn't resolve it, delete/re-add the email account.

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
    If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

  • Why am i getting the message cannot get mail or that i am not connected to the internet what settings do i need to be on

    why am i getting the message cannot get mail or that i am not connected to the internet what settings do i need to be on

    WIFi needs to enabled and you need to be connected to a network. Alternatively, you need Cellular Data to be "on". (Settings>General>Network). But it propably is a problem with your router (at least, it often is with me), provided you are using your private router. Try schutting it off and turning it on again. This usually sorts problems like this out.

  • Why do I get the message  "cannot get mail" when trying to connect to microsoft exchange server.

    Why do I get the message "cannot get mail" when trying to connect to ms exchange server?

    Hard to say. Has it ever worked? Maybe your account has mobile e-mail disabled. Maybe ActiveSync isn't set up properly on the server. maybe the correct ports are not open on the corporate firewall.
    You will have to talk to your IT department.

  • 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.

  • HT1430 receiving message "cannot get mail. account ... is in use on another device"

    Phone does not receive email. Instead I receive message "cannot get mail. Account ... is in use on another device." No problem receiving mail on all other devices.

    It is not a problem that is solvable by anyone. It is the way POP works. Set the polling time on your computer to 10 minutes or more and it will happen much less frequently. But it will still happen. Any time your phone tries to retrieve mail while your computer is actively retrieving mail you will get that message.
    If your ISP does not offer IMAP service there isn't much you can do. Most don't BTW. I run a mail server that supports IMAP, and so does Yahoo, Microsoft, Google and Apple. But a lot of ISPs don't because either they want you to use webmail so they can track your usage or they don't like the fact that IMAP keeps the master copy of all mail on the server, so you will use much more storage than with POP.
    One option is to get a gmail account and set it to retrieve your ISP mail. The read your mail with gmail. Google even lets you reply using your ISP's email address as the return address.
