Mail app stopped downloading new mail as of 12/20/13 - use google mail. Any advice?
No idea why this happened. Not sure if I updated iOS or anything, but I didn't change any settings.
By the way, my Mail App is version 5.3

Mail App stopped downloading new messages from Gmail
I'm using MBP with OS X Lion.
I've been using Mail App for my two Gmail accounts. I also use two different types of mail downloading systems (POP and IMAP) for them. For some reason, the speed of downloading new messages started slowing down a few weeks ago; however, I could still use it until today. Today, it seems like it is completely out.
It just stopped downloading new messages completely.
For the POP account, it says:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “POP” or try again.
The server returned the error: The connection to the server “pop.gmail.com” on port 995 timed out.
For the IMAP account, it says:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “IMAP” or try again.
The server returned the error: The connection to the server “pop.gmail.com” on port 993 timed out.
The weird part is that I can still send an email out of those accounts fine.
I checked the settings for Gmail, and everything seemed just fine.
I tried to re-do everything so deleted the IMAP account. Now it shows the message below:
The Google IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages.
I tried Connection Doctor and it shows as below:
I followed the suggestion by changing unchecking those boxes for SSL, but it didn't help either.
I tried "Rebuild" under mail box menu bar but it also didn't do anything.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Thank you in advance.By the way, my Mail App is version 5.3

Mail.app stopped downloading new messages from pop3
Hello,
I met this on both the latest Tiger and Panther: came after two weeks away and had no new mail. Strange. The Mail.app logins to pop3 server, sends a password, looks for the new messages, and that's all. Nothing is downloaded.
When I checked the mail via web browser, I had found about 600 messages there - most of them just a spam, as usual.
Whatever I tried (permissions, delete and create account, rebuild...) nothing helped.
BUT.
When I *manually deleted* some messages (via web browser), Mail.app started downloading. For me it looks like there is some message number limit, about 500 messages, and if there are more messages on the server, nothing is downloaded. I believe it's a bug - at least some error message should appear.By the way, my Mail App is version 5.3

Just got a new 5c--the apps stopped downloading cause it wasn't connected to wi-fi. How do I get it to start up again?
If you're downloading them as part of restoring and iCloud backup, sometimes turning the device off, then back on will restart the download. Otherwise, you may need to stop the restore (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, Stop Restoring), then erase the phone and restore the backup again.

After updating to IOS 7.0.2 in my Ipad mini I cannot update my apps nor download new apps . It says "cannot connect to ITunes. " it's been almost 3 wks now. I have tried resetting it and trying other options like changing the DNS to just 8.8.8 etc but to no avail. I try to run the IOS diagnostics but it couldn't verify my ticket number. Everytime I open my mail it cannot identify server identity " Apple.imap.yahoo.com." But I just clicked "continue" anyway so I could get my mail.
(A) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset. -

My mail.app got stuck while accessing mails in outbox. I was using ipad 3.Any advice?
Okay, I figured this out.
A podcast in iTunes was not downloading.
Apparently, ios5 will only download one thing at a time and so it sets up a queue that must include all and any downloads: apps, songs, podcast, all of it. So, a tip to anyone with this problem look through all apps that have a queue of downloading items and clear them till you can get your system running again. -
I have bought an iMAC second hand but when updates to purchased (not by me) Apps I cannot download the updates as it is asking for the original owners password. How can I amend this or could I delete the Apps and download new ones in place under my email
If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

I'm unable to update my apps or download new apps to my Iphone. When I try I get a message "An unknown error has occurred". It was happening before and after the last OS upgrade. I've done a hard reboot with no effect. Any suggestions???
Have either of you had any luck with this issue. It began happening to me today when I was trying to purchase music on iTunes. I have purchased music and games in the past and have had no problem. Any help would be appreciated.

HT201401 unable to update my apps or download new ones from the store (iphone4)
unable to update apps or download new after entering password
What happens when trying to download a new app or an app update via iTunes on the computer?
Basic troubleshooting for iDevices is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried? -
I'm trying to update apps and download new ones on mi ipad, but it doesn't work... the icons say "waiting" and nothing happens for days!Help!
Here are a bunch of things that you can try to get the downloads to resume.
Reboot 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 - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad. -
Im having a problem that started today with no changes to my computer. Every search and link I open now opens in a new window which is extremely aggrivating. Can anyone offer any advice on what happened or how to fix this?
If using the menu bar, or after pressing "Alt" key
Tools > Options > Tabs, (check) Open new window in a new tab instead
Firefox red button > Options (in right column) > Options > Tabs > (check) Open new window in a new tab instead
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)] -
Ipod Touch can't update apps or download new apps
I can download new apps using my computer, but not on my ipod touch. I can't download new apps on it, or update existing apps. No error message at all. When I try to update apps, I select 'update all', it "thinks" for a couple of seconds, then stops. When I try to download a new app, the screen says 'waiting', then the app's icon briefly flashes on the screen and it's gone. Any ideas?
Tried creating a new Apple ID but that didn't fix the problem at all, still can't download new apps with it, and I don't think I could update existing apps with a new Apple ID anyway.You are right in that apps are tied to the account that originally purchased the app so you have to sign into that account to update the app.
- Have you tried resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try restoring from backup
Last would be to restore to factory defalts/new iPod (last resort). -
Cannot update apps or download new apps
3 days ago my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.0.2) stopped updating apps and allowing me to download new apps. I rebooted the device and attempted several times to stop the updating but it appears they just keep spooling with no success. I logged of and logged back in the App Store. Suggestions?
Hello rwtjhr2012,
I know this article is about apps crashing, but it is relevant with troubleshooting the apps that you have purchased. Make sure that you are up to date on iOS.
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open

So I changed my Apple ID. Now on my Iphone I can't update things from the apps store or download new stuff. I went into settings and changed my ID there, but in the apps store it still shows up as my old ID. The apps store won't let me log on with the new one, as my old still shows up, and if I go back into settings and change it back to the old ID the password I had before no longer works. This ***** Apple. You just ruined my Iphone!!! My phone went from being cool to being junk since I am not unable to download or update apps...the coolest part of my phone. Someone help??? Please tell me how I can enjoy my phone and apps again...
Thank you for the response, but I ended up temporarily resetting my Apple ID... It was a pain, but it worked in the end.
