IPod Touch Mail Question

Ok So I am thinking of getting an iPod touch and was wondering can I setup the mail feature so I can view my Yahoo mail account because this is my primary mail account?
Thanks in advance.

Yes you can. Go to settings, mail, add account, yahoo mail. Piece of cake.

TS3899 1st generation iPod touch mail question

I have a 1st generation iPod touch with a mac.com email address and while the iPod checks mail, it no longer is very reliable in sending mail. Why is that?

IPod Touch Mail in Repair Question?

I am having screen problems out of nowhere(i didnt cause this) And i am sending my iPod to apple to fix. However the weird thing with my screen is that I only have the problems Sometimes :/ So i feel like Apple will check my iPod when it is not having the problem and think I am lying to them and charge me a fee. So is it okay I put a note in my box that explains to them how my problem only happens Sometimes?

Is this unit in or out of warranty? If it is out of warranty, I would send it to a third-party repair shop. I believe you will get a more personalized service and they may troubleshoot it longer. I sent a new iPod touch in once with a yellow hue to the screen. Apple sent it back and said it was normal. I went and sold it.

IPod Touch 2G Questions

I just bought an iPod Touch 2G. It's used, but works great. I have the latest version of iTunes. Here are several questions that I'm having trouble finding the answers to:
1- When you drag your finger UP the screen, it scrolls DOWN (as if the iPod was a book or piece of paper). I prefer thinking of it as a "digital viewer", & would like to be able to drag my finger DOWN the screen to scroll DOWN (like using a mouse-cursor on a scroll-bar). Is there any Setting or Application to do this?
2- The Main Menu has 4 Icons at the bottom for "Music", "Videos", "Safari", & "App Store". Above that are 14 Icons for the Apps & Programs that the iPod came with: "Mail", "Calendar", "Photos", "Contacts", "YouTube", "Stocks", "Maps", "Weather", "Voice Memos", "Notes", "Clock", "Calculator", "Settings", & "iTunes". Is there any way to remove any of these Apps, or at least remove their Icons from the Main Menu? Some of them like "Stocks" & "Voice Memos" I have no use for, & I'd rather not have them clogging up the Main Menu.
3- Does the iPod Touch 2G support a Folder System (either initially, or through an App)? If so, how do I create & edit it?

2) No you cannot remove the apps that come on the ipod. You can move them to another home page.

3) No. You can look for Apps in the app store that will store data via wi-fi.

IPod Touch Mail holds on to my ISP's server

If I check for mail with my iPod Touch over in-home Wi-Fi (Charter is my ISP), after updating the Inbox and going on to another app, (or not), or even putting the iPod on standby, if I try to check for mail on desktop Macs with the same account on the same Wi-Fi network it appears the iPod Touch is still tying up the Charter server as the Macs can't receive mail and can only be liberated by a full shutdown of the iPod Touch. I can't find a setting either on the iPod or at the server to solve this. Is this "the way it is" or is there a fix?

Does your Charter email use pop or imap? This does sound very strange as an email server request is generally a short lived transmission. This sounds more like a router issue rather than an iPod/iMac problem.
While I was reading your question, I received an e-mail on my touch and, while reading it, the same e-mail also came into my iMac (pop account). This should be the way it works unless you have the touch set to delete the e-mail on the server. So your problem still sounds like a problem of your router not releasing the port used by e-mail. I would look for and install the latest router firmware update that is available for your router.

IPod touch Mail crash

I'm having trouble with my iPod touch and the January Software Update. I had to restore my iPod a few days ago and now every time that I open Mail, it crashes. Is there a way to fix this, possible without having to restore my iPod again?

Im having the exact same problem.. everytime i try to look at mail it crashes... and then when i try to delete my account info and try again... it crashes again... so i go back into mail under settings and all my info is still there... is there anyway to solve this

IPod Touch Mail crashes after update 3.1.3

Hi,
It seems that since we updated our iPods Touch (different ones, 2nd Generation) to software 3.1.3, Mail app stopped working. It opens for a few seconds then it crashes. I have reset one of the iPods completely and synced it again, and still the same behavior. Something curious is that I open Mail, delete some messages, it crashes, and Mail shows the same number of new messages, as if I hadn't deleted any, and upon opening the app, yes, there they are. Rest of iPods seem to be working fine.
An older iPod (1st gen) that we have not updated works just fine.
Any clue or fix?
Thanks

My iPod does the same, Initially Apple blame the ISP, after much discussion it seems that there is a problem with 3.1.3 but they are reluctant to admit it. Firstly be denying all knowledge of problem then by blaming others. I think the problem is too big for them to admit and they can't fix it in the short term. Some are re-installing old software from net to get over problem, but Apple won't support old software. If any one has found a solution please let me know.

Ipod touch internet question???

i have two questions:
1. can you view videos online on a ipod touch that are on websites using safari (excluding youtube)like movie6.net, ign.com, tv-links.co.uk or google video.
2. as well does it cost to use the internet on a ipod touch my friends say that you do have to pay to use it.

In no way are there fees linked to Apple or AT&T for internet use on the iPod Touch. As Trey said, you may have to pay to use a public access point, but this is very rare and costs little, when it costs any at all.

IPod Touch 5G question

Ok, this doesn't happen with my iPod Touch 4G, but it does with my 5G. Every time I connect it to my laptop to charge, it asks 'Trust This Computer?'. Every time. If it did it once, it wouldn't really bother me, but it does it repeatedly. It will ask me at 2-4 times - sometimes more - every time I plug it in. My laptop is the only computer I connect it to, so why does it repeatedly ask that question?

Perhaps you need to try rebooting it:
Rebooting your iDevice
Hold down the Sleep (On-Off) and Home buttons together for about 10-15 seconds or until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears - then let go of the buttons. The iPad should begin to start up.
If this doesn't help then try restoring it:
Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
7. iOS - Unable to update or restore
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

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 problem?

I recently reset the password for my Hotmail account and when I tried to check my mail on my iPod, which was already synced it asked for the new password and I entered it i got an error message saying "Unable to verify account information". I deleted the Hotmail account and tried to add again and I got the same message. I have entered the new password multiple times and I am ABSOLUTELY sure that I got it right. I have also added my email address multiple times and I'm sure that I've got that right too. I have reset the password once more and still have the same problem. I have an iPod touch 4th generation with iOS 5. What should I do? Any help will be most appreciated, thanks

Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that didn't help try
Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

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
