IPhone does not fetch automatically

I have set my phone to fetch every 15 minutes for the "non-push" e-mails. But lately, if I don't run the mail application, it does not fetch e-mail automatically. The mail icon will show no new e-mails, I will click on it, then it will start checking mail, then I will have bunch of old e-mails (2-3 hours old if not older) pop up. Any ideas how to fix this?

The issue is supposedly with Yahoo. Something with their servers. Most of the people discussing the Push problem are Yahoo email users. I just can't understand why it's taking so long to correct. Apparently they've known for months. Mine worked flawlessly until sometime in early October. And then one day, it stopped working. I've tried everything except a complete restore. I don't want to do that and hoping it gets fixed before I resort to that.

    How to solve this problem that I have

    i've had a few issues like this.
    I've found that it is an issue with items that are already on your phone.
    several troubleshoots. 
    1) uncheck everything from syncing (apps, music, tv shows, movies, podcasts, etc), try to perform a sync, it most likely will work.  Then, sync after checking each item individually (check the sync box for videos, then sync, check the sync box for podcasts, then sync, check the sync box for music, then sync, etc).  One of two things will happen, 1) you will fix the problem, or 2) you will identify exactly what part of the sync setup is the culprit.
    2) if the above doesn't work, I've found that it is likely an issue with files that are on your phone but your phone doesn't exaclty recognize (for example, I had copies of music on my phone that didn't show up in the music app, I went in on itunes and manually deleted those songs from my phone and that fixed the sync).  to do this, check the "manually manage music and videos" box at the bottom of "summary" while your phone is connected to itunes.  Then, go to the left hand pane in itunes and find your iphone device, click the drop-down arrow that shows all the categories for media on your iphone.  Go to the music category in your iphone on itunes and delete all the music that shows up.  Try to perform a sync - it likely will work.  After this, you can uncheck the manually manage music box and re-sync your phone as normal
    let me know if either works

  • ITunes does not start automatically when I plug in my iPHONE.  When I start it manually it does not recognize my phone although the phone is visible in My Computer.

    Itunes does not start automatically when I plug in my iPhone.  When I start it manually, it never recognizes the phone although it does ask if I want to download pictures etc.  Many albums have no art work that use to.  iTunes completely unresponsive to the mouse.

  • My iphone does not automatically switch off the display light when locked. How do I fix this?

    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.2 software.
    My iPhone does not automatically switch off the display light when it is locked. Therefore, if I get an e-mail/text message/pop-up from other application, the light just stays on, which obviously drains my battery.
    The problem just started yesterday, and it has been a couple of days since I updated the software, so I wouldn't think the software update is the problem.
    I have tried restarting the phone (using home and lock button), but that did not work.
    Something else that seems weird is that once in a while, a blue beam rolls over the screen from one side to the other. I don't know why it does this, and have no idea whether this is related to the display light issue.
    I hope someone is able to help by telling me what to do in order to get my phone to act normal again.
    Thank you x

    Restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. You will not lose any data.

  • I have configured my android to connect to .me / cloud email. It works. But is does not do automatic email delivery. It seems to do fetch, not push. The settings are for imap. Can anybody tell me how to get push?

    I have configured my android to connect to .me / cloud email. It works. But is does not do automatic email delivery. It seems to do fetch, not push. The settings are for imap. Can anybody tell me how to get push?

    As Roger said, iCloud does not support external POP accounts.
    However, you can configure your Max to directly receive your Yahoo! email by following these instructions:
    http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110208153256491
    Note that this works (for me) without a Yahoo Plus! account - and make sure that you scroll down to the comment at the end of the article which has all of the correct settings in one place.

  • TS3899 my iphone does not connect to my email provider and fetch my email.  I have set up a new account but get the message "server is unavailable"..I have been getting emall ok previously, this occurred when I changed my password on my email account

    My iphone does not connect to my email provider and fetch my email.  I have been getting emall ok previously, this occurred when I changed my password on my email account. I have "set up a new account" but get the message "server is unavailable". I have tried several things but to no avail. Does anyone have the solution?
    Thanks

    Did you ever fix this problem? The same thing happened when I just changed my kids passwords and now can't access their mail on their iPods or my iPad but I use the same email provider and mine is fine however I did not change my password.  If you fixed it how did you?

  • When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically

    When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically, even though I have the "open iTunes when this phone is connected" option checked. I'm on the latest Snow Leopard with iTunes 10.4 and use an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.4.  I think the problem began with the latest iTunes update.

    Found the answer in another discussion! Here's what worked:
    "I also had the same problem, iTunes 10.4 wouldn't launch when connecting iPhone 3GS.
    I unchecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected", restarted, launched iTunes and connected iPhone, rechecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected".  I was asked if I wanted to install iTunes helper and said yes.  All works again."

  • TS3899 Since i have updated my iphone 5s to ios 8 or higher, the push mail does not work automatically, i have to refresh manually !

    Since i have updated my Iphone 5S to IOS8 or higher, the push mail does not work automatically, i have to refresh manually, I haven't this problem with earlier versions !
    I use Microsoft Exchange Mail server.
    Even with Iphone 5 and IOS8, the problem doesn't exist !

    Why would you expect it to work in 8.3, if it didn't work in a previous version? What troubleshooting have you done? Have you tried putting the car system into Pairing mode?

  • TS1398 iphone 5 and sky hub? My phone connects intermittantly and quite often cannot find the network. Also does not reconnect automatically? Any ideas?

    My phone connects intermittantly and quite often cannot find the network. Also does not reconnect automatically? Most of the time says unable to join network? My laptop and ipad seem fine? Very annoying Please help!

    All the information you need is right here: http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    Notice there is no mention of WiMax.
    It doesn't really matter anyway as Sprint is rolling their WiMax network down for use by MVNOs. Actual Sprint customers will not have access to WiMax at all. It was a failed experiment.

  • When the iPAD is in recovery and the iTunes is visible on screen, it does not open automatically. How do I open it?

    The iPad is disabled. I followed directions to put it in recovery mode. The screen appeared with iTunes. It does not open automatically. How can I open it?

    You've connected the iPad to your computer and you have iTunes open on your computer (your computer's iTunes may not automatically open) - does that not recognise that an iPad in recovery mode has been connected to it ? If your iTunes isn't recognising the iPad then try these troubleshooting pages :

  • IPhone does not sync to iCal

    I am running version 4.0. Since the upgrade my iPhone does not sync events back to iCal on my Macbook Pro. It does sync the other way--iCal to iPhone, but I need it to do both. I have looked in all the easy places for an answer. I must be missing something. What can I do.

    I spoke with technical support at Apple last night and they walked me through a solution to my iphone to ical sync issue -- the only problem is that I had to enter all the events I wanted to keep since my last successful sync (which was before I updated to ios 4) into ical manually. If you are ready to do this then the steps below may work for you:
    1. You are going to be pushing your calendar from ical onto your iphone so you will lose any events that are currently on your iphone but not on ical -- you will need to update ical manually to ensure you don't lose anything important.
    2. Scroll down in the info tab in itunes to the Advanced options at the bottom -- where it says replace the information on my iphone and select calendar.
    3. Sync, check that your iphone calendar matches your ical calendar
    4. Add a new test event to the iphone (the selection you made in advanced should have automatically deselected after you sync'd but check just to make sure)
    5. Sync again -- check if your test event was transferred -- i hope you have success!

  • I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it.  I cannot figure out how to do that.  The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device.  Does this kind of download have to run through itunes?  Thanks

    Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device. The following is general information on iTunes sync: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 and the following is a previous discussion where the post by Andreas Junge helped others that had a problem syncing audiobooks: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20052732#20052732
