Mail connection server failed
I connected my Gmail account to my I Phone 4S yesterday and it worked perfectly. Today when I click on mail, i get an error "Cannot Get Mail...The Conection to the server failed". I tried deleting and re adding my mail account several times and nothing works. Does anyone know how to resolve tis error?
Thanks!
Can you access the account on another device:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
-Go to Settings>Mail>the account and turn it off and then back on
- Go to Settings>Mail the account and delete the account and reenter the settings.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Updated to ios 7 cannot get mail the connection server failed
I updated to ios 7 yesterday and today I keep getting "cannot get mail the connection server failed". Also the safari gets stuck or takes awhile to load the page
Was there ever a response/solution to this? There's plenty of occasions where this seems to have happened but this thread is exactly what's happening to me. I am currently in Spain and trying to use Yahoo mail.
My mail is updating occasionally but if i try to force an update i get "cannot get mail...the connection to the server failed". Also if i try to send and email i get "a copy has been placed in your outbox....the connection to the outgoing server apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com failed...additional servers can....."
I checked my mail settings and the defined server isn't prefixed with "apple". -
Connection Server Failed in SAP BI 4.0
HI
We have installed SAP BI4.0 on Linux server.
Able to login to CMC but connection server and and web intelligence servers are failed . We tried to start the server but unable to start the server .
We have restarted all the servers still connection server and and web intelligence servers are failed
Please advise
Thanks in advanceHi
Please locate the boconfig.cfg file e.g. /home/bi4/BI4/setup/boconfig.cfg
If the file has only a few entries it is most definitely corrupted. Check if the boconfig.cfg_old has more lines, if yes make it boconfig.cfg
If that still fails:
- Restore the boconfig.cfg from a backup
- Copy the boconfig.cfg file from a working BI4 system
Then restart BI4

I have an iphone 4. When I go to my mail, I get a pop up that says "cannot get mail, server failed" how can I resolve this?
I guess he/she open Notes in Gmail settings. This archives (one way sync) notes in gmail account under notes label that is invisible if you are using the standard gmail setup on your iPhone. You can see it on desktop browser, Safari or gmail app in iDevice. Am I wrong?
Sorry for bad English. -
Canon Pixma Wireless connections "server fail"
I have a Canon Pixma 5220 printer which has worked flawlessly (wirelessly) for quite some time. A few weeks ago, we changed our router from a password protected setup to non-password protected (don't know the technical terms for this) as a couple of our smart phones would not connect with the router in order to use the wifi. (there might have been a better solution, but being non-techies, we didn't know what it was). Since doing that, I have not been able to get our Pixma printer to connect wirelessly. I deleted the printer entirely and went through the install procedure with the CD, but it will only show that a job is "pending" (which I guess means it's connecting wirelessly to some extent) and that the printer is "offline". Also, when I look at the Network Diagnostics, it shows everything working, but the server shows "fail". I'm sure there are some tweaks that I need to do, but I'm at the end of of my knowledge base. :-\ Also, in the meantime, I had my Macbook Pro repaired which means it was wiped clean, so that may have changed something as well. I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8.

I'm completely baffled about why I can't succeed at sending email. I just went over all the settings with the ISP, and they say they are correct. Guy sounded kinda green, though. So maybe I'm not completely baffled.
I'm getting some conflicting data from Mail. The default set-up was for SMTP on port 465. My ISP wants Port 25. I'm running the Connection Doctor, which tells me I'm getting through to the POP server, but not SMTP. Passwords are identical, and working with the POP server.
The ISP uses a very vanilla SMTP set-up:
smtp.fubar.com
Port 25 (Which I reset to Port 25)
myusername
no SSL
password
Heres a log of a connection session:

Any ideas anyone can share will be appreciated.

Message was edited by: Roger DiggleApparently, my ISP needs better help. It seems two things were going on ...
my return email address for the account I was setting up is not the same domain as the SMTP server. It appears that the connection was initially choking because of the mismatch. My usual email client, Mailsmith, doesn't introduce this problem, even with the same settings. Hmmmm ...
After I fixed that, it still didn't complete, however. But I got some good information from the Connection Doctor, finally. The SMTP server doesn't require authentication. My configuration was trying to authenticate, based on information from the ISP that both servers "use the same password". Ah well ...
Once authentication was turned off, it then started taking outgoing mail. Problem solved, I think. -

E-mail connection server often lost
Sometimes my boss iPad2 mail stop syncing and send me a message "Unable to connect to the server".
If I change something in the mail configuration (for example some description) and save, the mail restart syncing.
If I turn off and turn on the iPad2 the mail start syncing.
I also notice that, in the same wi-fi area and with the same mail server, my iPad mail work without any problem. The mail configuration are the same of my boss iPad2.
Can you help me please?Normally a new device on a BES would require a new activation to the BES, and a new password from the BES Admin, however they are all set differently with varying permission--and BES is not my forte anyway. But in moving your information and preferences from the old device to the new, via Desktop Manager, you could have transferred the settings.
You will speak to Vodafone about the BES account. If you require BES, you will probably need a hosted provided for the service, like ExchangeMyMail. http://www.exchangemymail.com/index.asp
Look at your new device > Options > Security > General Settings > at **services** do you see any named IT Policy?

It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.

I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI. I have also been receiving 'Cannot send mail, an error occurred while delivering this message.
Hmm, that's odd JeanEB. The error message referts to the connection to your email server not to cellular data or connection to wi-fi. Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Select your account and type in your password again. If this doesn't resolve it, delete/re-add the email account.
