IPad mail verification error

I have 2 Comcast POP accounts, a Gmail account, and a MS Exchange mail account set up to receive mail on my iPad 2. They all worked fine until a few days ago. Suddenly the 2 Comcast accounts and the Gmail account stopped receiving mail (although it comes thru just fine on my iPhone). I get an error message: "Cannot get mail. The mail server 'mail.comcast.net' is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings." I get a similar failure to verify message with Gmail. However, I have not changed any settings since I first got the iPad. Did a recent IOS update screw up something?

My comcast account worked fine after the update, but the gmail account did not. Got the cannot verify error. Finaly simply reset the gmail password, then re entered the account on the pad and all is well. Not sure why, but it cleared up whatever the issue was.

Yahoo! email does not load through ipad Mail app.

I'm using an iPad mini and for about 1 week now the built-in Mail app does not retrieve my Yahoo! email. When I click on the Mail icon a blank screen comes up -- no error message, no nothing, just a blank screen. I have to use the browser to access my Yahoo! email. I have tried deleting and re-establishing my Yahoo! email account. I have tried re-establishing my network connection. I have tried restoring my iPad to factory settings. I have switched my default email account to G-mail and I receive my email just fine through the built-in app. But Yahoo! is my primary account and I cannot get my email. This just started in the last week. Prior to this I have been receiving Yahoo! email just fine through the built-in app for 3 years. But now nothing. Also, the mail app recognizes I have new mail because the little red number pops up when new mail arrives. But in order to retrieve the mail I have to go to the browser, and once the mail is read, the little red number disappears.
I contacted Yahoo! support and they suggested I set up an app password if I use two-step verification. But I don't use two-step verification. Then they suggested checking my IMAP settings, but IMAP settings aren't accessible (that I know of) through the iPad mini settings. So I just re-established the network settings to no avail.
I can't help but think this is a Yahoo! email server issue, but Yahoo! doesn't mention that.
Someone please help!

Yahoo mail works on my Mac desktop & laptop, plus my iPad 2.

Adobe reader (11.3.2) PDF's on ipad and getting error that the file is corrupt!!

i have the latest Adobe reader from the app store (11.3.2) however i am struggling to open PDF's on ipad and getting error that the file is corrupt!!
any help or suggestions welcome

Would you describe how you transferred the PDF file to your iPad and iPhone? Did you send it as an email attachment and open it on your iPad and iPhone?
The file may have been corrupted by Apple Mail, which is a known problem. Please see Problem #1 in the FAQ document How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems.
Would you try some experiments so that we can troubleshoot the problem? During the experiments, please use cloud storage (e.g. Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.) and avoid sending the PDF file as an email attachment.
Rename the corrupted/damaged PDF file on your iPad. For example, add "_damaged.pdf" to the file name.
Upload the corrupted/damaged PDF file to the cloud storage of your choice.
Download the corrupted/damaged PDF file from the cloud storage to your Windows or Mac desktop computer.
Open it in the desktop version of Adobe Reader XI for Windows or Mac.
Does Adobe Reader XI on your desktop computer display an error message?
Upload the (good) PDF file on your iPhone to the cloud storage.
Download the (good) PDF file from the cloud storage to your iPad.
Open it in Adobe Reader on your iPad.
Does Adobe Reader on your iPad display an error message?
We can investigate further based on what you will find.
Thank you for your help.

Signing a document, generates a "Timestamp signature property generation error: Verification error."

I am getting this error message when I sign my documents. Especially when I try and create a second or third signature on a document.
I have just upgraded to Reader11.0.09 and then when I got the error, I went back to Reader 11.0.08 and then back to Reader 11.0.07 but all are giving the error. The document gets signed but a pop up box shows the "Timestamp signature property generation error: verification error"
I have the settings pointing to our timestamp server under Preferences > Document Timestamping > Server Settings.
Under signature verification preferences > Verification > Verification time, I have the "Secure time (timestamp) embedded in the signature" selected.
It seems to work but is generating the error. If I open a new document and sign it sometimes it works without the error. Occasionally it produces the error on first signing. Mostly on second and third signatures on the page..
Any ideas?

you can mail me directly to [email protected], and I'll try to help.

Fetchmail: Server certificate verification error

I'm using fetchmail to fetch our mails from our ISP. After upgrading my server from 10.3.9 to 10.4.8, fetchmail is logging the following four lines for each poll:
fetchmail[39]: Server CommonName mismatch: *.mail.my_isp.com != pop.my_domain.com\n
fetchmail[39]: Server certificate verification error: unable to get local issuer certificate\n
fetchmail[39]: Server certificate verification error: certificate not trusted\n
fetchmail[39]: Server certificate verification error: unable to verify the first certificate\n
Here is the syntax of my .fetchmailrc:
set syslog
set daemon 60
poll pop.my_domain.com timeout 900 proto pop3 user "user" with password "password" nokeep fetchall is localuser here
I'm not using SSL here, so why is fetchmail mocking?
Any help is welcome
Thanks, Gerd
XServe G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Gerd,
Don't know which version of fetchmail comes with 10.3.x and 10.4.x respectively.
However, older versions would check for an SSL certificate in an opportunistic way and still go ahead if there wasn't one. More recent versions will interrupt comunications.
In other words, since you do not use SSL you must disable it in fetchmail. If I remember correctly (not 100% sure), you must add:
sslproto ''
to .fetchmailrc

Try this - 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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
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.

IPad Mail - Maximum Attachment Size Limit (Sending)

Is there a maximum size limit for attachments that the iPad Mail App can send?
We have an iPad connected to an Exchange server through our internal wireless network. Mail is received by it (even with very large attachments) but if an email is sent with one or more attachments that total over 10MB, the email stays in outbox with an error "Cannot Send Mail" "An error occurred while delivering this message."
I've checked all of the limits on the Exchange server but these are all set to 20MB. Smaller attachments (6MB, 8MB, etc) work without any issues. I've searched these forums and around the internet but haven't been able to find anything about this and nothing about where any such limit would be configured.
Thanks in advance for any help

Done it! My colleague found an article here: http://www.i-tekpro.com/BlogArchive/Exchange2007/Max-Message-Size-Increase-Excha nge-2007-CAS.htm that discussed how to change a limit in an Exchange ActiveSync config file that seems to have been tripping us up. We changed the limit and got the email through. It's worth noting that this also applies to Exchange 2010, not just 2007.
Many thanks for your help with this,
Barry

Ipad mail app won't send hotmail emails

I'm having trouble sending emails from my hotmail account. Every time I try it comes up with "cannot send mail - an error occurred while delivering this message"
I have try closing and reopening the app, rebooting the ipad, removing and adding the hotmail account....all did not work
Any other ideas?

I had this issue and this was what worked for me, I was using the "hotmail" option.
1. go to settings
2. go to mail, contacts, calendars
3.delete your email from device
4. click "add account"
5. there should be different account options, chose "other"
6. chose "add mail account" and do so
You should be able to send now, but you might want to check how it updates. Certain email options used "push" which lets you know you have a new email the moment you get it, much like a text message. "Other" only allows you to have "fetch" which updates every selected amount of mintues, and "Manual" which does exactly what it says.
7. It should return you to the mail, contacts, calendars page. Press "Fetch New Data"
8. there will be a list of when it will update your email. The less it updates, the easier it is on battery life. There is a manually option.
9. If you want to use the actually "Manual" Update schedule then press "Advance" then your account.
10. There you can chose "Fetch" (which I suggest if you use email a lot and there is a manual option there anyways) or "Manual"
I really hoped this helped! If it did then well....awesome.

How do I edit the email address that's set-up in my iPad Mail client? It's at iOS7

How do I edit the email address that's set-up in my iPad Mail Client Account? It's at iOS7 and the email address was entered incorrectly; this means the email doesn't work. There's an Edit button, which causes 3 horizontal lines to apperar at the end of the field, but does not seem to allow me to place the cursor in the field and correct the error. Unless I can correct this I'll have delete the account and start again so if anyone's able to tell me how to edit that address that would be briliant? Here's hoping................

Thanks mabaeyens; it IS the address entered in the email account, on the iPad, but sadly, as explained above, once you get to the Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Account > tap in the wrong account > Email and then hit edit, the 3 horizontal lines appear at the end of the field but touching the screen within the text of the incorrect address doesn't make the cursor appear, so I can't edit! Very frustrating obviously. In the edit mode you can drag the field up and down the page but that's all............

TS3058 iPad imap connection error

I had this problem and after trying many things I reset my gmail password and deleted and added my gmail account in my iPad mail app settings, it worked. Has anyone else had success with this?

More on this, there was a difference when I re-added my account. I was connected via my home router and Wi-Fi when it all worked okay. As soon as I drop the Wi-Fi and connect via 3G I get the old error back. I have confirmed over the past few days that this scenario still is true. Connection via Wi-Fi works for me at home, 3G gives me the imap error.

ICloud verification error

Have you already tried to restart the process? Sometimes updates fail due to a bad internet connection.

Using iPad mail program I have a draft of an email. I attempted to "cancel" and "delete draft" but it is still on my screen even after shutting down and restarting. How do I exit so that I can use other mail functions?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, 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.
If that doesn't work also do a 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.

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If nothing above helped, restart your router.
No data is lost due to a reset.
