IPhone 3G and Push Email Notifications

Hello everyone.
Before I got my iphone, I used to own a blackberry, and push email was my main form of communication on it. I cannot begin to describe how amazing push email was on the blackberry - the moment an email was sent to my address my blackberry picked it up right away, I'd say within 10 seconds. Now, I have an iPhone 3G OS 3.1 with mobileme email set up to use push email. I don't know if i'm the only person experiencing this...but push notification my foot... sometimes I don't even get notified of emails until I open the mail app myself and do a manual check. I have mobile me on my iPhone set to push, I have push in the settings menu set to on... I don't know what else to do.
I'd be happy to hear of other peoples experiences with MobileMe push mail on the iPhone. My account expires in two weeks...maybe I'd be better switching to push mail with gmail? I might give that a try this evening.
Regards
Seb

Just playing for more hours! Push works lightning fast if you enter anything onto MobileMe, it syncs to Iphone in less than 20 secs, Mail email, contacts and calendar.
The problem is I am using with Entourage 2008 that supposed to sync with Ical and Address Book, this is either not working or coming through ad hoc or taking hours to Iphone, this is not push email like above.
MobileMe is fine as a standalone push system back to Iphone, but what about me using Entourage to manage all my mailboxes and data to iphone.

  • Facebook -Push & email Notifications not working since u/g to v5.1

    Is anyone else experiecning issues with setting up new Push notification for facebook on their iPhone?
    I have iPhone5 running iOS 6.0.1 and upgraded to Facebook Version 5.1.
    (I also have the older version of Facebook within iTunes on my mac and if I re-install this the same thing happens)
    From within the Facebook app, BookMarks>Account Settings> Notifications> Manage Push Notifications.
         When I try and check a box to enable a notification the tick doesn't stay but I get a message "Changes Saved".  This happens when I select one box or when I try to select multiple boxes at once to check.  I think that there may be a bug within this Facebook App?
    Can anyone else using Facebook give this a try and see what happens for them?
    On Facebook.com if I try and enable Email Notifications the same things happens there.
    (The only time that I receive a notifcation is via the world icon when i'm in the app or on the FB.com)
    I have reported this to Facebook but would also appreciate your answers of what could be causing this.
    Thanks
    Steven

    Hello -
    It looks like you have two problems. The first problem with respect to email is that you do not have a "from address" specified in the server properties. I believe that is the address that the mail component is complaining about.
    Also -> you seem to have a problem where the a backend Form Manager component is failing to retrieve information for that particular task (this error: Lock obtain timed out). hopefully after resolving the first issue above this will cease.
    Let us know how it goes!

  • Push email notifications interupting phone calls

    I have an iPhone 4 running the latest iOS and recently my push email notifications have started interupting my phone calls. I have not changed any setting that I know of. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Probably not, but it's possible that the setting itself  has somehow been altered.  I have encountered several instances of unwanted changes in settings using VZ Digital Voice (particularly Do Not Disturb).
    On the "My Verizon" site, go to Services/Home Phone/Settings, and at the bottom of the Settings Page there is a Call Notification feature.  Set it as desired.

  • Schedule webi report to destination to Inbox AND send email notification

    I'm writing a new process that will schedule a webi report.  The output of the report needs to be delivered to multiple user's BO Inboxes AND an email notification (without the report attached) needs to be sent telling them that they have a new report to view in their Inbox.  Trying to mimic how this is done via CMC Schedule - Notification and Destination tabs.
    I can get it to deliver the report to the Inbox and I can get it to send an email seperately, but the problem I'm running into is that I can't get it to do both in the same process.  Here is the code snippet that I've written.  Any assistance would be appreciated.
    // Retrieve the managed plugin
    IInfoObjects managedInfoObjects = infoStore.query("Select SI_DEST_SCHEDULEOPTIONS, SI_PROGID From CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS Where SI_NAME = 'CrystalEnterprise.Managed'");

    One thing to keep in mind is that "scheduling to SMTP" is different from "scheduling with email notification", and it looks like you're conflating the two.  The ISchedulingInfo.getDestinations() is the access point for scheduling to SMTP and ISchedulingINfo.getNotifications() is the access point for scheduling with Notification.
    > scheduleInfo.getNotifications().getDestinationsOnFailure().add("New");
    You'd add the SI_PROGID of the SMTP Destination here, and work with the returned IDestination to set the destination parameters.

  • BT Mail and push email on iPhone

    I have just been migrated to BT Mail from BT Yahoo. On both my iPhone 4s, running iOS7, and my iPad, the BT Mail does not give the option for push email, just fetch. Does BT Mail not support push email? I need my push email back - fetch, even every 15 mintes is not sufficient for my needs, and it a backward step. I want email pushed to my devices as soon as it hits the server. Can this be fixed? Also I have a problem with the BT website, when I log in with my email address and password it takes me from the BT.com website to BT Yahoo, which no longer contains my emails. Why is this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The new BTMail does not support push email.
    If you have been migrated your emails are no longer on Yahoo's servers so they won't be there. You need to set up your BTID
    Try using this link to log into your emails. If you have just been migrated it should take you through the migration process.

  • SMS and/or email notifications from iPhone/iPod Touch calendar(s)

    My wife and I have iPod Touch's that we use to sync 2 calendars. Is there ANY way to get SMS or email notifications of an event?
    By syncing google calendar it will work ONLY if the event is created via google calendar - it won't work if it's created on the iPod.
    I bought GoCal which says it has this feature, but I couldn't get it to work.
    If i could get email notification i could just setup a filter to forward only those emails to my verizon dumb phones email address.
    The point of this is to have a calendar that stays in sync, but we don't have our iPods with us every minute of the day. . . so we need the sms alert of the event.

    Thank you very much

  • After upgrading to iOS 8.2 on iPhone 6, Exchange Push email does not automatically update over wifi. Ideas?

    After upgrading my iPhone 6 to iOS 8.2 this weekend, my Microsoft Exchange email accounts (I have two) is no longer being pushed automatically when connected to Wifi.  This was working correctly before the update and continues to work correctly when on 4G, but not Wifi.
    Troubleshooting steps taken:
    * Tested on and off wifi - issue is only when on wifi not when on 4G
    * Turned mail sync off and then back on again - did not make a difference
    * Rebooted phone - did not make a difference
    Other ideas?

    I was able to track this down not to the email updates but the notifications.  The 8.2 update turned off email notifications both when unlocked and locked.  I was able to resolve by turning the notifications back on.  Seems odd that an update would change notification settings.

  • I need help none of my notifications are coming to my iphone 4 and in the notification center everything is turned on i reset and restored my phone but it's still not working i need help with this asap

    My iphone 4 will not push my notifications to my phone. I reset and restored it and still nothing. I even set it up as a new phone in still nothin can anybody help me.

    Hi R. Weav27,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some troubleshooting steps for issues with push notifications:
    iOS: Understanding notifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
    Troubleshooting notifications
    Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection.
    Note: Notifications use Wi-Fi only when a cellular connection is unavailable. Firewalls and proxy servers may affect your ability to receive notifications. For more information, see Unable to use Apple Push Notification service (APNs).
    If you're not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
    Verify that the app supports notifications.
    After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app to begin receiving notifications. If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
    Check Settings > Notification Center to ensure that the app is configured for notifications. If notifications do not appear in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    Cheers,
    - Ari

  • 2.0 and push email

    I have a 1st gen iphone and I have gmail as my email on my iphone. I have been trying to keep up with updates about what 2.0 will be like and I have a question. Will you only be able to have "push email" if you have a MobileMe acct or will I be able to get push with my gmail?

    Push email will only be offered from MobleMe, Exchange and Yahoo (presumably they won't turn it off). Google has not announced any push service for the iPhone.

  • Iphone randomly stops pushing email

    My iphone 5s has recently decided to stop pushing email...sometimes.  Today for example all was good until about the afternoon when I didn't get any more email messages, or so I thought, when I checked my computer tonight I had 5 new email messages but my phone showed nothing, it always fixes itself when I open up mail on my phone it gets the new messages then starts to push messages again...until randomly a few days later it stops.
    This happens both with the mail app and my gmail app.  I can't seem to figure out it's problem.  I sometimes turn my wifi off and on when I don't want it to connect at work, but other than that there seems to be no logical reason for this.
    All apps and software are up to date.  This only seems to have started happening about a month or two ago.
    Other things like imessage and texts messages push just fine.

    Rachel,
    This reminds of me an issue we used to have with iPods -- often times it turns out to be a problem with one or more songs in your library. Were these all songs you purchased from the iTunes store, or did you get them elsewhere?
    If elsewhere, you may need to try a rebuild of your iTunes library. Here's the easiest way to start (and to see if this is the problem). First of all, do not do anything without a backup of your music (you need a backup of your music anyway). If you don't already have one use DVD writable media and any backup software and make sure you've written all your songs out. This is particularly important on any songs you've purchased (if they came from CDs you own that can be considered your backup, although you will have to rip them again).
    Now go to iTunes and in the library select all your songs (Ctrl-A) and press delete. Now -- be careful here, do not answer "Yes" when it asks you if you want to remove them from your hard drive. They will then disappear from iTunes but still be on your hard drive. Locate them on your hard drive (in Windows use Explorer). They will most likely be in your "My Music" folder but you can also search for them (if they came from outside the iTunes Music store they most likely have the extension MP3). Once you find them do not drag them all over into the library -- here's where we want to test something. Just drag over a few, not more than 10 or 20 (you can drag over a folder or two if each folder contains an album, which is normal).
    Try syncing again and if that works then you know a couple of things. After that you can drag all your music back into your library and try a sync and if that doesn't work you know there is something wrong with one or more of your songs. But often this may clear up any problems.

  • Iphone, Me and push mail

    I have iPhone, 1 MS exchange mail account, 1 me.com account and 1 gmail account.
    how do I make all of those "Push-Mail" ?
    does my "me.com" account allow to pull mails from those accounts then push them down to my iPhone?

    As I understand it, only your .me account will push email. The rest, pull. If you forward the others to your .me account, they will get pushed to you from .me, but I'm not sure whether they will get pushed to your .me account. I think it will depend on your other email accounts. Of course, you will also lose your separate mailboxes on your iPhone, as they will all now be in your .me mailbox.

  • IPhone 5 not pushing emails

    I have a new iPhone 5 3 days old. I had my iPhone 4 backed up to iCloud and restored the 5 to the last backup. My 5 won't push email alerts through even though in settings/mail contact/ calendars the fetch new data is set every 15 mins and advanced is all set to push. If I manually click on the mail icon it downloads the latest messages but it won't do it automatically.  The 4 used to do it fine.
    Please help as I desperately need my mail to notify me as soon as a new email comes through (for work)
    Cheers

    Even though you have Push set to on, I'm not aware of any POP accounts that actually push. I believe you are just getting your mail via the 15 minute Fetch that you have set. And if they were truly push accounts, you would not need to turn Fetch on.
    If you send yourself an email from another device to one account that you say works, does it actually get pushed? What I mean is, do you receive the mail right away, or do you only get mail every 15 minutes as you set your fetch? If you go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Advanced, you should see all of your email accounts listed there. What settings do you have there, push, fetch, Manual? I believe only accounts that support Push will have a selection for Push. If set to Fetch, it will fetch on the schedule you have set there, and if set on Manual, they will only check for mail when you open the Mail client. See what settings you have there.

  • Delegate rights on iCal and meeting email notifications.

    If you grant another person Delegate rights to your calendar and set their permission to "Read & Write", they will receive email notifications of all new meetings created for you, but you yourself will never receive those notices. If their permissions are "Read & Create", however, the invitee (and not the delegate) receives the email notice.
    This is known bug. Is this fixed? Is there any work around for this?

    started yesterday for both of us here too.  She on iPhone3gs, me on iPhone 4.  But also showing up on iCal on macs... whenever any event is added, deleted or changed it generates an email to the other person who subscribes to that calendar.  Got to be a server issue.. we haven't upgraded anything recently and phones are still on iOS 5.01 even.
