Mail isn't coming through on desktop
I have been away on holiday recently and was checking my mail on my iPad. Since returning none of my mail is coming through to my iMac. Not any new ones, or any from the time I was away.

My Mac has stopped receiving mail. I have a mac.com address. Mail is still coming through to my iphone and my wife's ipad but nothing is coming through to my imac.I have mail from half an hour ago on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the mac. Everythng was working fine until recently and I have not touched any settings! Can anyone help?
So I tried something else recently and it seems to have fixed the issue. My mail is now getting new mail again and refreshing after waking from sleep without having to restart mail. Give it a try and hopefully it will help you too.
First, make sure your Mailbox List is visible (Shift + Control + M). Then select all of your inboxes, mailboxes, and folders (not just the root folder for nested folders, make sure to select them all). Then under the "Mailbox" menu, select "Rebuild."
It may take a while to rebuild them all if you have a lot, but like I said it seems to have done the trick for me. I hope that proves to be more of a long-term solution. -

Hi, I have an iphone 4s and would like mail, texts and facebook notifications to pop up as banners as and when they come through. Mail only seems to push through when I manually go into mail and press on it although notifications are there if I down swipe the notifications bar. All of my notification settings are on and set to banners so I am not sure where the problem lies. Thanks for your help.
Are they maybe coming through as banners and you just dont happen to be looking at the phone when they come through? Because banner notifications will come through as a banner and then disappear after a few seconds. But they will stay on the "slide down" notification screen.

Comcast mail isn't coming into Mail as before
This has happened previously, but not for several years and I don't know how to get it working again. Comcast is not very helpful. If anyone could walk me through this, it would be MUCH appreciated. I really don't like their smartzone mail system. Am running 10.5.
THANK YOU!Open Mac Mail. From the menu bar click Mail / Preferences then select the Accounts tab then select the Account Information tab.
Select the Comcast account on the left then click - bottom left side of the window.
Now click +
Follow the instructions for adding your Comcast account back in again. -

Just upgraded to 4.0 on my 3GS iphone - now my mail isn't coming in
I tried deleting one of the email accounts and bringing it in as a new account. Sill I get the ""Checking for Mail... " - any suggestions?
What variety of web based mail are you trying to sync to your phone?
How many accounts do you want to sync?
I currently have 2 yahoo addresses and 1 gmail address (for calendar only) that seem to sync without issues.
If you have !Yahoo try from scratch with this walkthrough and see if it works for you.

When I set mine up I recall there was an extra step ...from what I remember I had to put in a server number or name or something. There was a field on the phone that didn't show up until after you put in some basic info. The first two times I didnt see the extra field pop up, but it's there.
Cheers

Pretty much what I wrote. I didn't damage anything and all of the connections look good but the speaker isn't coming through very good. I tried to mash the receiver speaker into its boot because I know that if it isn't seeded well then it could cause muffling but it is in place and secure. All of the contacts look fine and none were damaged or touched when the phone was opened. Any idea where I could have gone wrong here? Mainly the receiver speaker sounds garbly and scratchy. Like it would sound from being water damaged and no this phone has never seen water. Thank you for any help anyone.

Wow. That was your help? Yes obviously it's damaged and obviously I have damaged it. Thank you for that. Now back to the question. What did I damage so I can fix it. This phone is too old for warranty as well. That's why I'm fixing it. Please, everyone else. I don't want instore advice but tech help. This is the Apple Community.
In your first post, you said you didn't damage it. It seemed worth pointing out that it was, in fact damaged. And, as I suggested in my first reply, you might try a website like ifixit.com. They specialize in resources for people to repair iPhones. -
Sound Not Coming Through Speakers
I'm trying to watch a video on a Youtube style website, but the sound isn't coming through my external speakers, it's coming through the internal one in my tower. All other sounds (iTunes, Quicktime, etc) come through fine. I experienced this problem a long time ago, and it was eventually solved, though I don't remember what I did (or if I did anything at all). So far I've restarted the computer and made sure the correct speakers were selected in the system preferences. Where should I go from here?
ThanksThe audio hardware can be set to various sample rates. There are several ways applications can deal with this:
A) output sound at whatever the sample rate setting is.
B) produce no output if it can't handle the current setting.
C) change the setting to something that will work, but reset it to the original when finished.
D) change the setting, and don't reset it when finished.
Type A and C applications won't cause problems, but if you use a type D application that uses an unusual setting, followed by a type B that can't use that setting, you will get no sound. Garage Band is a type D application that uses normal sample rate, and running it will often fix sound problems, but the Audio MIDI Setup Utility gives more control. -
After downloading IOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 5, my email messages are not coming through automatically. Before, my email messages would come through automatically and my iPhone would alert me each time an emial message was recevied. I now have to open my mail in-box and wait for my email messages to download. Do I need to reset or change my mail settings? This issue is delaying my abiliy to receive and respond to email messages in a timely manner.
Please Help.
JesseHi Chris. Thanks, for the suggestions re: my email issues. They were helpful and yes I did check all items you referenced. I even contacted Apple support and spent about 40 minutes on phone checking all settings. However, after all these efforts, my mail and calendar issues were not resolved. Apple Support finally recommended deleting the mail account and then reloading it - and it worked! I am now receiving my emails and calendar appts. in real time again.
Just wanted to share this in case anyone elest has a similar problem with mail/calendar after downloaing i.O.S. 8.1 onto iPhone 5.
Thanks, again.

Hi, i downloaded ios 5 to ipad 2 and when I rebooted, all 2000 emails that i had recieved, read and trashed are downloading again. They are coming through 25 at a time eaach time I check mail. How do I stop this happening?
Use your PC to sign-on to your mail service using the browser interface they provide. Delete all the e-mails you don't want on the server. That will prevent the iPad from downloading them.

ICloud e-mail not coming through (silent filtering)
I placed an ad on Craigslist and the responses don't seem to be coming through. I've read that iCloud has a silent filtering 'feature' that blocks things that it thinks are spam before they're even delivered. Is there any way to disable this? I'd like to get my e-mail.
If the email is being filtered at Apple's end there's nothing you can do about it. You'll need to change your ad and get a temporary Gmail address for responses, or some similar solution.
