IPhone 3GS: Push e-mail now only works on 3GS, not WiFi

Greetings,
Well, my iPhone 3GS (iOS 5.1.1, which it's been running for a long time) suddenly stopped receiving pushed e-mail from my Yahoo e-mail account (the only one of my accounts that offers push) over WiFi at home. Now Push only works when I'm on 3G. It used to work on both. Any ideas?
Thanks,
DM

Have you
- restarted the phone?
- made a hard reset? Simultaneously press the sleep/wake and the home buttons for 10-15 seconds until the device reboots (ignore the shutdown screen).
- force quit the app? When in the app, press on the sleep/wake button until the shutdown screen appears, then press the home button until the app quits.

My Comcast e-mail now only works with Windows Internet Explorer-is this a Microsoft/Comcast collaboration to get people to switch to Explorer?

Firefox opens the Comcast e-mail window and inbox is visible,. but you can't open the e-mails. Their Customer service told me I have to use Explorer, which does indeed work. Also, Explorer scales the page automatically to full size.
I really don't want to switch to Explorer unless I absolutely have to, so when is this issue going to be resolved?

use an extension like IE Tab or IE View to use the IE rendering engine in Firefox.

Hello lila54,
It sounds like your Wi-Fi network is working if your desktop works with it, we just need to get the Wi-Fi on your iPhone and iPad connected to it. I found a couple of resources to help with not being able to connect to Wi-Fi on an iOS device.
I recommend following the steps in this tutorial first (the steps should work on the iPhone and iPad):
Join a network

If you are still having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi, follow the steps in this article (you can skip any steps you have already taken):

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

When click the email icon on my iphone, it opens on one email only. I can not go to the next or previous email, a different email or anything. It only gives me the option to move that email! How can I stop this. Its been working perfectly well before!

Now as you may know there is some icons at the bottom of the mail app, at the top left conner you should have the inbox button and on the upper right conner you should have two arrows to shift between emails. If any of those options works try :
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings
If that does not work try to re add the account
Last but not least, restore as new.
Hope that helps.

Push Notifications only work in Airplane Mode + Wifi

I have a problem with my push notifications. They only work exactly when I have my phone in Airplane Mode and with Wifi enabled. Here are the details of my phone:
Phone: iPhone 3GS
OS: 3.1.2, NOT jailbroken, NOT unlocked
Activation: Not Hacktivated
Data: "Unlimited Mobile Browsing" - others report that they are able to get Push notifications through this connection on my cell phone provider
Push Notifications: Do not work when not in Airplane Mode
I have search the internet for countless hours for a solution and although I have discovered some threads where people have the same problem, no solution was provided.
Please help me,
Thanks

It could be there's not enough signal for the push notifications to come through. I hardly get them on the 3G network due to having 3 bars or 4 bars. Also doesn't work good indoors. When I have 5 bars, I'll be able to receive them.
It could be a network issue to speak with the carrier or "Mark the Spot" app as no coverage/no data if you have AT&T. It could also be Apple's Push Notification Service having problems while they update their service to have Push and Local separated.

My I mail is only working on and off please help me !

I'm assuming Gmail is setup as IMAP.
Remove your Gmail account then add it back. Apple account setup will automatically enter the correct settings.
Be sure the All Mail folder is set to sync. See this link for help with settings in your browser.

It's a Finder feature, related to Quick Look. You can hit the space bar in the file list to get a preview.
If that doesn't work, you may have an issue witha preference file or similar. I find rebuilding the launch databse works quite well resilving tis kind of thing, as does trashing Finder preferences

Hi there itiago,
I would recommend that you take a look at the article below for more information on forgotten passcodes in iOS.

Gmail with iPhone (Exchange) push & Apple Mail IMAP

Hi, I've managed to get a Gmail account going on an iPhone using the Exchange protocol. Push is working fine. I use Apple Mail to access the same Gmail account via IMAP.
When I reply to a message using the iPhone, the Replied flag (the little 180-degree U-turn arrow symbol) shows up next to the message in iPhone Mail, but this flag doesn't appear in Apple Mail. Likewise, if I reply to the message using Apple Mail, the Replied flag shows up in Apple Mail but not in iPhone Mail.
Basically, I would like push email, but would like the Replied flags to be shown correctly between the email programs.
I've tested this using a few other potential settings with the following results:
* Attempt [1]: iPhone Mail accessing Gmail using the IMAP protocol (no push); Apple Mail using the IMAP protocol (push via IMAP-idle): If a message is replied using the iPhone, the Read & Replied flags are not synced to Apple Mail. However, flags produced using Apple Mail are brought across to iPhone Mail. BUT, if Apple Mail is quit & started up again, the proper Read & Replied flags are shown.
* Attempt [2]: iPhone Mail accessing Gmail using the pre-made Gmail settings (no push); Apple Mail using the IMAP protocol (push via IMAP-idle): Same results as Attempt [1].
* Attempt [3]: iPhone Mail accessing Gmail using Exchange (push); Apple Mail using the Exchange protocol: Can't seem to get Apple Mail working at all. Tried all sorts of settings, but no luck.
* Attempt [4]: iPhone Mail accessing another non-Gmail server using IMAP (no push); Apple Mail using IMAP (push via IMAP-idle): Reading & replying to messages using the iPhone or Apple Mail will always correctly show the Replied flags on the other platform.
* Attempt [5]: iPhone Mail accessing MobileMe using pre-made MobileMe settings (push); Apple Mail using MobileMe (push): Reading & replying to messages using the iPhone or Apple Mail will always correctly show the Replied flags on the other platform.
So the only way to get push email happening with correct syncing of the flags between email programs is to use MobileMe. It doesn't seem possible using Gmail, unless someone can tell me the Exchange server settings for Apple Mail so that it can be tested.

That's the way it works with Exchange, and there's no workaround until Apple fixes it. It's the same for 'regular' Exchange accounts - the replied/forwarded tags applied by the iPhone Mail app aren't seen by Outlook, and vice versa.

Iphone 4s visual voice mail doesn't work

I set up new iphone 4s and visual voice doesn't work
I wiped it out and restored..still no working
tried set up as new phone and still not working
companion Iphone 4s works fine

Voice mail, including visual voice mail, is a carrier feature. Contact your carrier again and escalate the call until you get hold of someone with a clue.
This is assuming you're using a Straight Talk CDMA iPhone. If you're using an unlocked iPhone with a Straight Talk GSM SIM card, that's not supported by either StraightTalk or Apple.

I updated Firefox, lost The Free Dictionary's some essential fucntions, cannot get them back. The TFD now only works in English. What to do?

I updated Firefox to 10.0.2 and lost the functionality of The Free Dictionary. I reinstalled TFD, but now it only works in English. Say, I read a German webpage, highlight a word, the dictionary goes to look for it in the English dictionary. Before I had all the versions I needed, and the dictionary went automatically into the right one. And before I could have the toolbar installed, now there is no option for this either. What should I do?

Hi Maurizio, I asked you about a problem with the free dictionary. I found the solution, which actually was not technical. In case someone else has the same, this is what I did not understand: When I highlight a word in a text in other language than English, the dictionary gives me an explanation in English, i.e. "word not found", but when I then press "search", the dictionary connects me into the appropriate dictionary. It functions even in Chinese! So, problem sorted out. The dictionary is not as good as before, but still, it works. Un saludo, Markku

Mouse scroll wheel now only working from right to left scroll...

After update yesterday (10/15) on my MacBook Air my wireless mouse (Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000) that has worked forever will not scroll up and down. Trying it In excel it will scroll right and left when I use it, but everything else (browsers, word docs) that have no real right left scrolling functionality there's no effect. Looking in Mouse options there's no option to change the scrolling orientation from rigth/left to up/down... help please.

ActiveSync only works for Contacts, not for Calendars and Email

So it seems that the ActiveSync is only working partially for me... When syncing with our company's OWA, my Contacts sync fine (though some create duplicates). However, the Calendar doesn’t sync at all, and the Email only syncs the folder structure, but none of the emails in them. When I attempt to sync the individual folders it gives me the same error message - “connection to the server failed”. This is a bit puzzling, as it is able to connect to the server just fine to get the contacts and the email folders.
I have already talked to the resident geniuses at the apple store and the exchange admin people - all are clueless... And did I mention, we don't have IT dept. to fix this... Please let me know if anyone is experiencing a similar problem or can suggest a way to fix it...
Many thanks.

I am also having this problem. I was on 2.0.1 with the original iphone and had activesync working just fine. Contacts, calendars and email were all working.
On Friday I made the critical mistake of deciding to upgrade to 2.0.2. My phone was a brick for a little more than a day. I finally seemed to figure out the magical incantations required to get it restored and syncing with itunes (it was in a loop of only wanting to restore my phone).
Since getting it back into a relatively normal mode of operating on 2.0.2 I have not been able to get push email via ActiveSync working (it was working fine, no changes on the Exchange side of things). The only thing that changed was my upgrading to 2.0.2.
Since then I am back to the pre-2.0 email capabilities (I can create a seperate account on the phone and make imap work, but I don't get push with that).
I sure hope Apple is reading this and taking steps to correct it. I have no idea how to restore my phone to the way it was before I made the mistake of upgrading to 2.0.2 I should just have waited for 2.1
