IPhone 2.0 Only Gets POP mail on restart

Since I installed 2.0, my mail doesn't download unless I restart my iPhone. I have checked all the settings and ensured I have them set to get mail every 15 min. I also try to pull the mail manually. However, if I restart the phone, it pulls all my mail every time - then seems to lock up again.

My wife had this problem on her first gen iPhone after I updated it to firmware 2.0. I fixed the problem by disabling the 'Push' email feature. I set up all the email accounts to use the 15 minute 'fetch' mode, but as long as the 'Push' feature was on her phone just would not load new email messages.
(I don't have the phone with me, so I can't remember how to get to the Preference window where I turned off the 'Push' email feature)

Did you actually read what was written.
The poster stated his/her WiFi is slower not cellular data.

There has been posts claiming that your router works on 2.4 MHz. Versus the 5 MHz. Available on A/C/B/G/N wireless routers.
See if a solution has been found other than switching to 2.4
Good Luck

My iphone 6 is only getting 1x service in my office. Could this have something to do with the VOLTE?

wc_e,
Let's look further into this! No, that shouldn't be the case. Does service improve outside your office? Are you a new customer? If not, did your previous phone experience the same issue? Try resetting network settings in Settings>General>Reset test and share. Thank you.

Can't set up my email. I use StartLogic but can only get my mail going to their site.

SL gave me some numbers for the in and out ports but I only saw one port in Advanced.
Thanks

Hi Annie,
Make sure when you are setting up your e-mail account that you enter in your entire e-mail address. If you have a Yahoo (includes any e-mail account associated with Yahoo), G-mail, or Aol after entering in your password it should automatically set up. Any other e-mail address you will have to manually set the account up.

I have just bought a new iphone 4 as an upgrade to my iphone 3GS. How can I transfer all my apps and data to the new iphone 4 and keep facetime etc on the new iphone 4. If I do a restore of the iphone 3GS I only get the 3GS apps (i.e. no facetime)

I have just bought a new iphone 4 as an upgrade to my iphone 3GS. How can I transfer all my apps including saved levels in games etc. and data and folders to the new iphone 4 and keep facetime etc on the new iphone 4. When I have done this for someone else they got all their data etc but lost the Face Time App and teh iphone 4 looked like the iphone 3 screen.

There is no FaceTime app for the iphone, FaceTime is built into the iOS. Follow the directions here:

TS3103 My apple-based e-mail stopping working on May 22-- it keeps asking for passwords -- which are not accepted. What is going on? I am on snow leopard 10.6.8-- I can only get e-mail on my phone!!

I am unable to sign in on e-mail (mobile me OR me.com)-- It just randomly stopped on May 22nd. Nothing will update from that date. My password comes up as invalid; I have tried to re-set but it still comes up as invalid. What is going on??? This is so unlike apple.

Your post is pretty lengthy and I have to admit I didn't read it all. Please try restarting in Safe Mode, if that doesn't work please do both a SMC and PRAM reset. These may take 2-3 attempts.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

TS3276 how do i get my mail box on my iPhone and iPad to STOP showing me ALL my emails and ONLY show me my NEW ones?

how do i get my mail box on my iPhone and iPad to STOP showing me ALL my emails and ONLY show me my NEW ones?

Who is email provider? What sort of email account is it - POP3, IMAP or Exchange? POP3 will work like this as with that whoever first downloads the latest mail from the server deletes it from there and so it's unavailable to other mail clients on other devices.
Either switch your email account to IMAP or change your POP3 account's settings so the new mails are not deleted for some time (a week, a month or whatever) after first download and are thus available to other devices also (IMAP is best solution but if POP3 is all that's available from whoever your provider is then you'll have to live with POP's limitations).

IPhone not sending POP mail? Here's a work-around.

Like some other people out there, I haven't been able to get the Mail App on the iPhone to talk nice to my POP email host's server. It receives mail just fine, but will not send. I've tried all the fixes I could find suggested out there, and had several back-and-forths with my server host's tech support, and then spent (literally) two hours with an upper level Apple tech trying to get the device and server working together . . . to no avail.
Until such time as my server opens up a new hole and allows easier access . . . or until Apple figures out some way to penetrate the pinpricks that are already there . . . I've come up with a reasonably good work-around that might be helpful for some of the others out there who are having similar issues.
It's a little convoluted, but it's easy to do, and there's no hacking/tinkering . . . so just follow it step-by-step.
1. Create a Gmail Account. Ultimately, you'll be sending your regular POP account mail through their server . . . so you'll need a Gmail Account.
2. Once that's created, there's an option to: "Use Gmail to send from your other email addresses" . . . and we're gonna get that set up now. To do that, log into your Gmail Account. Then go to Settings (at the top-right of screen). Then go to Accounts (the second Tab over). Then, where it says: "Send Mail As:", click on the option to "Add another email address". That'll open up another box that let's you fill in the name and email address of an alternative email account. Put your primary POP email account information here.
3. Gmail will then take you through a brief verification process, to determine if, indeed, you actually have access to the POP email account that you're trying to "spoof". Just follow the instructions.
4. Now, let's fix our iPhone's settings so that our POP account can use Gmail's Outgoing SMTP mail server. Go to your Mail Settings, and select your POP account (assuming you've already got one created that has the Incoming mail part working just fine). Scroll down to your Outgoing Mail Server settings, and either turn off your delinquent primary server and add a new server with the settings I'm about to give you. Or, what I did was, just change your primary server info to the following:
5. Here's the server settings that will work:
Host Name: smtp.gmail.com
User Name: use your full gmail email address
Password: use your gmail password
Use SSL: Turned On
Authentication: Password
Server Port: 587
6. Now, you should be able to send mail from your POP account through the Mail App on the iPhone, using Gmail's SMPT server as a proxy. You can already use the AT&T outgoing server settings in this same way, actually . . . but only when you're on the AT&T network (Edge or 3G) . . . not when you're on a Wi-Fi network.
Truth is, this trick would work even if we didn't do Step #2 and Step #3 . . . but then the email that we sent from the iPhone would have our Gmail Account information in the headers of our sent email, rather than our POP accounts reply-to information. Following Steps #2 and #3 make it appear as though the mail was still sent from our primary POP account.
Hope that's useful for someone else out there, that's been knocking their head against a wall trying to get their mail up and running. I'll post this on a few forums.
All the best --
D

I don't get any pop-ups anywhere nor any menus (if there are supposed to be some). The code is rather messy, also, with all those on-the-fly definitions for styles and endlessly long JavaScript actions. Quite possible that the links override one another. Not to ruin your day, but I'd definitely start from scratch with an empty page and a clean style sheet for the various elements. IMO that's the only way to get this working properly.

Hoping someone out there can with getting junk mail from my windows live mailbox ? on my iphone

Hoping someone could help me with getting junk mail from windows mail to my i phone?, i would only like to get my inbox mail

Are you accessing your Windoze Live account as a POP account or as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app?
If as a POP account, received messages that are in the account's Inbox at the incoming mail server will be downloaded.
If you are accessing the account as an Exchange account, all server stored mailboxes will be available automatically when accessing the account with the iPhone's Mail app. If as an Exchange account, seems like you would want to have the account's junk mailbox available in case a legitimate message is incorrectly marked as junk and moved out of the account's Inbox mailbox.

Help getting POP e-mail client to behave

I just moved over to an iPhone after years of being an Android user for many years. The only thing I feel like I'm missing is getting the mail client to behave the way it did on Android. On Android I used a program called K-9 Mail and it did an excellent job of synchronizing the inbox on the pjhone with my POP e-mail server. Here's how it behaved:
Download messages from the server to the phone, they stayed on the server but were marked as read. This is standard and seems to be behaving the same.
Delete a message on the phone. It was deleted on the server immediately.
Delete a message on the server or download messages from the server to my PC which deleted them from the server, they were deleted from the phone on the next synch.
I can't seem to get this level of synchronization with any iPhone clients. I've used the stock Mail client as well as tried Sparrow. Can someone tell me if I'm just missing a setting somewhere? Thanks very much.

Not sure how this was done with your android since what you are asking does not fall under the standards for a POP account. Nothing is synced with the server with a POP account. When accessing a POP account with more than one email client, new email downloaded and read with one email client will be downloaded as unread mail with the other email client and vice-versa.
If the email account provider supports IMAP account access, I would make use of that.

I have an iphone 5 and I keep getting pop ups asking for my voicemail password. How do i get rid of it?

Contact your carrier and have them re-set your voice mail password. Once they do, you should only have to enter it once. Then you won't be prompted again.

Apple (POP)Mail vs. iPhone (POP)Mail issue -Round II

*I posted this before, and mistakenly marked it as resolved.*
After the iPhone firmware 2.1 update, my POP mail started acting funny. I use Gmail for my POP mail, which I access via Mail on both iPhone and MacBookPro.
Before the 2.1 update, if I got new POP mail on my iPhone (whether I read it or not), I could still later download it via Mail on my MacBookPro and it would appear as "unread".
After the 2.1 update, if I get new POP mail on my iPhone (whether I read it or not), it will not download in Mail on my MacBookPro.
-iPhone > Settings > Mail,Contacts,Calendars > Gmail Account > Advanced > Delete from Server > is set to "Never".
-I have tried going into the Gmail webmail and resetting the messages to "Mark as Unread", and they will still not download into Mail on the MacBookPro.
-I have deleted, and re-made my email account settings on the iPhone. This fixed the problem, but only for a few days.
-The issue comes and goes, which makes it even MORE frustrating.
Help?

I have the same questions regarding my iPod Touch. I tried using IMAP on both my MacBook and my iPod, but had many problems with corrupted attachment downloads when trying to maintain a local IMAP storage on my MacBook (both in Mail.app and Thunderbird). Since I use my MacBook to back up all mail (don't want to trust Google's server), the dual IMAP wasn't going to work. So now I'm using IMAP on the iPod and POP3 on the MacBook.

How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer ?

How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer/ will be deleted on the server ?

For that kind of connectivity you need to be using an email account configured either as IMAP or Exchange.
IMAP & Exchange accounts will maintain a sync across all your devices, so if you read / delete a message on your phone, it will disappear from the server as well. This cannot happen in POP email accounts.
If your using gmail, instructions on how to set up exchange / imap are here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
Alternatively, if its anything other than Google, you will need to contact your email providor or IT department (if your email address resides with an enterprise environment) to get the correct settings.
Hope this helps!

Can icloud email receive email messages from another account by automatically retrieving them like my iphone does. Microsoft calls this pop mail

I have an iphone and an ipad. I don't have an Exchange email account pulling all my messages from my verizon email account into my apple devices. My husband uses his Outlook computer at work to create 2 Inboxes on his iphone (one is his work email Inbox and one Inbox is his pulling from his personal account). I noticed using an Exchange-type email program with the iphone allows for features I want. I want to check email on my phone and ipad. I ALSO want to be able to file emailed coupons into an Inbox coupon folder on my phone and ipad for easy retrieval. It seems the icloud email program will let you do all of this. It also seems Google offers gmail and it will do this for me. Now that I set up an icloud email address, I can't figure out how to get Verizon email pulled into it. My iphone and ipad pulls my Verizon email but does not allow for Inbox folders. Verizon won't auto-forward emails to another account. Gmail will pull them for me though. Will icloud do this?

Verizon netmail just offered auto email Forwarding. So, even though icloud might might not offer the services Gmail and other email programs offer to pull email, it seems I might still be able to accomplish what I want using the other email account's ability to forward my email to my icloud email address. We'll see. Please reply if you know the answer to the icloud's ability to pull email in a way like pop-mail does for pc users. It would have helped me if I could've found the answer to that question in this support forum...
