IPod Touch mail.app problem.

I have set up my mail account on my Mac and it works flawlessly (I've had some problems with sending mail, because my ISP has had some difficultys with it's smtp). But now, when it is working, I tried syncing my mail account to my iPod (thru iTunes). It downloads my e-mails from my school's account, but when I try to send email, it says "Error: Senders email was incorrect". Note: SENDERS. Hmm. The same account is working with out any hickups on my mac. To clarify, i'm using my schools mail server for incoming and for outgoing i'm using my ISPs smtp server. My school's smtp works only with IPs from our school's internat network, so I can't use that.

What account? Yahoo is bad
Cannot get Mail. Connection to the Server failed. - Apple iPad - Tech Forum

Hotmail on iPhone Or ipod touch mail app!!!

Hey people. Im only making this post to help people out. After a lot of research and a lucky unxpected find, i discovered a way to access your hotmail account on your maill.app
First you need to sign up for a GMX.com mail account (completely free, and EXCELLENT)
Then once inside, you need to add a mail collector account, suck as your hotmail
(The mail collector feature in GMX accesses your Hotmail account and downloads your email messages into the mail collector folder inside of your GMX mail account.)
(Inside the iphone mail app, once you set up your gmx account to work with it, you will have access to a folder that is named: "Mail Collector" and inside will be all of your hotmail emails.)
After you have signed up for a GMX email account, here is how to configure it with the Mail app:
1. Under Settings, select "Mail", "Add Account", "Other", then "IMAP" or "POP" and use the following settings:
Name: enter your name
Address: your full GMX email address
Description: GMX
Incoming Mail Server
Host Name: imap.gmx.com (when you're using IMAP) or
Host Name: pop.gmx.com (when you're using POP)
User Name: your full GMX email address
Password: your GMX password
Outgoing Mail Server
Host Name: mail.gmx.com
User Name: your full GMX email address
Password: your GMX password
Advanced
Use SSL: Off (SSL only works with incoming not going, but to be sure, turn it off for both)
Authentication: Password (both incoming/outgoing)
Server port: 110 (incoming) and 25 (outgoing)
If you selected to use IMAP, you can map iPod Touch folders to GMX IMAP folders. Test first if the default mapping works before changing anything.
To change the mappings, got to Settings>Mail>GMX.
- Select "Advanced"
- Select "Drafts Mailbox" and set it to "On the server > [GMX] Drafts"
c. Select "Sent Mailbox" and set it to "On the server > [GMX] Sent Mail"
d. Select "Deleted Mailbox" and set it to "On the server > [GMX] Trash"
Click on "Advanced" each time to return to the prior menu after choosing a folder

It may have just been that this was the first sync. The messages are all there, but are in reverse order with the oldest message at the top of the stack. It is neither a small nor orderly stack. It may have been because it was the initial sync and this was the order that GMX pulled them from hotmail.
Then there is the lag. I guess that you, like me, tested this out by sending yourself some messages "just to make sure it worked". How long did you find the lag between sending something to hotmail and recieving it through GMX? Right now, I'm sitting on 15 minutes since I sent one and it still has not arived in the GMX collector.
Edit: Never mind on that last part. Seems Hotmail thinks something coming from my gmail account is spam. Twice. But not the ones for blue pills, lotteries from Europe, financially challenged nobility from African nations, or the young lady that wants to get to know me better if only I would stop by her site and see her new pictures.
Thoughts?

IPod Touch Mail App not working

My family just had FiOS installed a couple days ago. It's taken my brother and I a couple days to notice that the mail apps on our iPod Touches (which worked 100% with our old Verizon DSL) are no longer working (i.e. they are no longer pushing emails from our Yahoo and GMail accounts to the iPods).
I deleted my Yahoo account from my iPod and then tried to re-add it to see if that would fix things and the message I got from the iPod reads: "the imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com is not responding. check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field" My brother's Touch gave him a different message regarding his Gmail account but he's not here at the moment for me to quote it directly. Only via the wifi at work was I able to successfully re-add my Yahoo account to the iPod. Now I'm back home again and when I try to refresh my inbox it's just "Checking for Mail..." indefinitely.
Note that it's only the mail app that is not functioning; all the other online functionality of the iPods (Safari, Youtube, weather app, iTunes) are working 100% with FiOS. And as I mentioned above, the mail app worked today on the wifi at work. It's only at home with the new FiOS that the mail app on my iPod stops working.
Any ideas? Might there perhaps be something I can tinker with in the router settings?

Me again. I've discovered the mail app works when I set the firewall from maximum to typical. Is there any way to tell it to let it work on maximum?

IPod touch mail loading problem

I recently started using email on my iPod touch. At home, it works great. I just moved back to school, and the email application works great in my dorm as well. In any other building on campus, however, I am unable to load mail. I can use safari and any other app that requires internet, but the mail just will not load. Is here a reason this is happening everywhere on campus except for my dorm? Is there a way to fix this? Thank you!
-Stephanie

you should check with your school's IT department. they may have certain ports blocked in various buildings preventing this. If this isn't the case, then they should be able to advise you how to fix this.
Good Luck

IPod Touch mail app smarter/pushier than MacBook with Gmail?

This overlaps multiple categories, starting inquiry here first.
Why doesn't my MacBook's mail program update read-vs.-unread Gmail like my iPod Touch does? I read a message on the dedicated app on my 'Touch and it counts as "read" on Gmail; I read a message on my MacBook, and no, not registered as read on Gmail. Likewise, my MacBook "send" folder only has messages sent from my MacBook, not all my Gmail-sent messages. I've tried setting options to be as "pushy" as I know to make them in my MacBook, but what'm I doing wrong? Thanks for any info.

IOS iPod Touch 4G app problems

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4G to iOS 5 yesterday. That was a bit of a bumpy ride, and now my apps won't open. The icons are still on display and my one subscription has moved to the new newsstand feature. When I hit an icon, the app flutters to the opening page for a second, then goes right back to the icon on the panel. How do I fix this short of reloading everything?

- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Download/install a new free app.

IPod Touch Mail app help

I have recently switched to google mail as Yahoo! Mail didn't work on my iPod Touch. However, google mail doesn't work either. First it tells me it can't work with the SSL port so I switched that off. Then, when it checks for new e-mail, it takes about one minute and then it just says that it can't connect to the server! Please can you advise me what to do.
From andrew

Do you have a good WiFi connection when you are configuring the email? Have you tried just syncing the email settings with iTunes (Info tab).

Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found. Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error, "iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found". Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

Try here:
iTunes: Unable to sync photos
Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

Yeah, i found the file 'iPod touch app pack 4a93.ipa' in mobile application directory, which directory in Mac should i copy to? Is it \user\<name>\music\iTunes ?
Hi,
I think that is the old "January update", I'm not so sure it is necessary to transfer that one but it would go here -
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
Look here for the latest 2.0 etc. updates -
C:\Documents and Settings\"name"\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
Even then I'm not sure even these are required but best back them up to be safe.
I'm not sure where the go in Mac OS X though.
I'm sure someone will let us know soon.
