Mobile me mail unable to connect to server

This has been happening since upgraded to Lion. I get the symbol saying it is not connected. If I click on it says "The user name and password specified in Mail preferences were not accepted by the server." I have not changed anything. Every once in awhile that message will randomly appear while I am in other programs. I have never changed my account in any way. Right now I can't get mail. Any ideas?
thanks,
Joe

Thanks Bob,
That was just a typo.
I have three accounts set up in Mail, one of which, apart my the username which is my son's, has exactly the same settings as the one that isn't working and remember it's affecting all my devices.
I would feel happier even if I could create a fourth account on my MacBook Pro using what I know to be the correct password for the server but when I try it keeps defaulting to imap type, I don't get an option for Pop which is what I need.
Oh Bum.

URGENT: Apps: Scan to e-mail: Unable to connect to server (HP6600 Officejet)

Gd day,
Bought myself a new HP 6600 Officejet.
First 4 months worked fine.
Since the last two weeks i am unable to use the scan to mail app.
I can go through all the menu's
apps => scan to mail => pick my emailadres = > scan.
But then troubles start and i receive an error message as below.
Printer cannot connect to server. Pls check connection and try again.
i've tried as good as everything,
Hard reset of the printer, firmware update, deleted my internetconnection and reconfigured it, but nothing helps.
Pls help me on this matter since I loose a lot of time with scanning to my computer and then mailing to my mailbox on windows (CITRIX remote loging)

Hello Yelle92,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you are getting a connection error message when trying to use the scan to email feature of your Officejet 6600 printer.
There are several steps I would like you to try please.
Please turn off your printer.
Please turn off your router. If your router doesn’t have an on/off switch, please unplug the power cord from the router.
After waiting a full 60 seconds please turn on your router (or plug it back in).
After the router has completed its startup routine please turn on your printer.
After the printer has completed its startup routine, please test the scan to email feature. If it works there no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots on how to do this. Don’t worry that the screen shots show an Officejet 8600 printer, the steps are the same.
Please test the scan to email feature. If it works there is no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
Please call HP’s Cloud Services at 1-855-785-2777 if you live in the USA/Canada region. If you live outside the USA/Canada region please click here to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.
Thank you.

IPod touch 4 said cannot get mail, unable to connect to server. Tried turning off, tried deleting email

WWhat can I do to get my email working? had been working fine yesterday. Today would not get email, said "cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed. " Shut off, back on, didn't work. Deleted email account, added back, didn't work and now has nothing for the email at all. Any ideas?

Same problem here, also as of this morning. "Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed". I am a paid google apps exchange user.

Yosemite Mail "Unable to Connect to Server" Errors

I've been having a rash of "Unable to Connect" problems with Yosemite Mail the last 4 or 5 days. Internet is working fine so it's not a wifi problem. I have 7 email accounts, but the iCloud account is the worst offender. It's got that little exclamation point next to it more often than not. Anybody else having the same problem?

Hi Linc- It's sometimes. Totally intermittent. I can sit there and watch the little exclamation points turn off and on next to each account's inbox. Sometimes all is OK, other times 2 or 3 accounts go off or 1 here and 1 there, sometimes all 7 off at once. Plenty of times everything's working fine. No rhyme or reason to it.

Mail: unable to connect to my SMPT server? Also new Mail Account defaults to iMap and won't let me change to Pop?

Dear All,
I've been with the same UK internet and email provider for years and they've given me solid and reliable service. I've worked my way through the Apple Knowledgebase checklist and tests and proved that my isp/esp is working normally so the problem has to be with Mail.
I fiddled about trying to create a Mail Account on my late 2011 but-new-to-me MacBook Pro a couple of days ago and, it might be completely unrelated and simply a coincidence, but since then none of my devices, Iphone 4S, Powerbook G4, iPhone 3G, the MBPro can send email using Mail.
Whenever I try I get prompted for my password but when I enter it says it's wrong but it definitely isn't because I even changed it this morning through my isp/esp and it worked and I then changed it back again to my correct password and it works also to get into webmail that is, not via Mail.
When I run Mail\Window\Connection Doctor and check the status it shows Mail is unable to connect to server but that it can connect to the internet. I get the following message: Trying to log in to SMPT account failed. Try to verify that username and password are correct.
Now, whenever I try to create a new email account on MacBook Pro Mail keeps defaulting to iMap and wont let me change it to Pop which is what I need.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Dear All,
I'll finish off this thread in case it's of use to anyone else in the future.
I couldn't get the email pop account to recognise my sign-in even though I've been using it continually and without problem for the last several years. It's always been BT and Yahoo so it's more likely to be the fiddle about I did on my temporary, pre migration user account that caused the hiccup.
In th end I had to create another pop account which I was able to once I'd migrated my settings from my PB G4 to the MB Pro. Unfortunately this didn't merge the numerous email folders that I'd created previously in Mail but I still have them on the PB and I believe they can be transferred manually which is what I will do.
Thanks for everyone that took the time to help.

Ask your email provider for the correct settings to use to set it up on your phone.

On my iphone it says "unable to connect to server" when i try to download mail. same account on computer works fine

Hello, bills47.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would first start with forcing the Mail App to close then attempt to access your account again.
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If the issue persists, the easiest way to troubleshoot this issue would be to delete the account and add it back to the iOS device. Below, I have included two e-mail troubleshooting articles. The first article covers basic email troubleshooting. The second article will assist you if the email account you are experiencing issues with is a Gmail account.

Thank you

No more NNTP (Newsgroup) access... meaning the servers have been shut down.

HT4436 When I tap on Terms and conditions of iCloud, it reads'unable to connect o server', and can't access information.

I can't access to info on iCloud. It requires to accept terms and conditions, but when I tap, it reads'unable to connect to server'. The problem is he e-mail for the iCloud is no longer valid. How can change the iCloud iD only? The Apple iD for the rest of the apps is working fine.

Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

HT4623 unable to connect with server

Overnight my iPad sent a message that it was unable to connect with server. All other mobile devices are running fine. So I feel it is somewhere in the settings of my iPad that needs changing. I can't get on Safari or iTunes, etc., etc.

Wi-Fi issue? Are you in a home or business environment? Have you tried connecting and re-connecting to your wi-fi network?
