MobileMe account verification fails

When I set up a MobileMe mail account on my ipad with my existing appleID, the account requires verification...
To get the account verified I need to ask to send a verification mail on my iPad and reply to this mail. Unfortunately I do not receive such mail. When asking to send that verification mail, I do get a message on my iPad that a mail has been sent to "-". So, my email address does not seem to be known although it specifies it correctly as my AppleID. What am I doing wrong?

Hello.
Some of the steps below may help
1. Delete any Yahoo accounts off iPhone
2. Settings - General - Reset - Reset Network Settings - Agree - iPhone Reboots
3. Now add your Yahoo account back into iPhone
*If it does not work proceed below.
-Repeat steps 1 and 2. And then for the Yahoo account change the password to a new password. All lowercase letters. And numbers if you want. Then confirm new password works by logging onto Webmail.
Now try adding account back into iPhone.
In very rare occasions I have read that restoring iPhone will sometimes allow an email account to be added again.

Gmail account verification failed error "pop.gmail.gom" is incorrect

I'm getting this errror message "gmail account verification failed error "pop.gmail.gom" is incorrect"
I checked password, username and pop setting at the gmail in my computer and e verything is fine. I can log on with my iphone via safari to gmail. I can't use the built - in mail system. I updated to 1.1.1 to see if this would help solve but it didn't.

holyreviver,
If your password contains a mix of upper and lower case characters, I would recomend keeping an eye on the shift key as you enter your password. Sometimes it may seem to stick.
You will also get that error message if POP3 is not enabled with GMail online, or another machine is checking that account. Sometimes turning POP3 off, and then back on will help resolve it as well.
Hope this helps,

Yahoo Account Verification Failure

I got a new iPhone 3G today, and have bequeathed my original iPhone to my wife. I have gotten the old iPhone set up for her, but for whatever reason, whenever I try to set up her Yahoo email address on the phone I get the following message:
"Yahoo! account verification failed. The IMPA server "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."
As far as I can tell, my network connection is fine, and I have never seen any "Incoming Mail Server" field.
Help!

The exact same thing happened to me. Hopefully someone will know.

If you see the white WiFi bars in the upper left corner, that simply means that the iPad has detected a WiFi network, and that does not mean that you are connected to the Internet.
Can you open web sites with Safari?

Cannot send email on my iPhone from my MobileMe account...help?

Every time I try to send a message in my MobileMe account on my iPhone 3G, this message pops up - "Cannot Send Mail - The connection to the outgoing server "smtp.me.com" failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured in Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars." I've checked the smtp to make sure it's correct, and I changed the Server Port to 587 as suggested by Apple. Is it something to do with the IMAP Path Prefix? This has been happening since I purchased my iPhone in February while it was running OS 2.0, and I have since upgraded to 3.0 and 3.0.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When using the MobileMe account preset to create the account, the SMTP server is created with 587 as the SMTP server port, which can't be changed when using the MM account preset to create the account.

Failure sending email from MobileMe account on iPhone

I cannot send emails from my mobileme account on my iPhone, the following error appears: connection to the outgoing mail server 'smtp.me.com' failed.
I have my gmail account set up and this works fine, any ideas?
Thanks

One thing that might help out.
Try a reset by holding down the home button and power button at the same time until you see an apple logo.
If the reset does not work, one more thing to try.
Remove the account from the iphone by going to settings > mail, contacts calendars > your MobileMe account.
Scroll to the bottom and tap the delete account button.
Reset the iphone by using the 2 buttons again.
Now set the MobileMe account back up on the iphone.
Hope this helps.

Verification Failed. The certificate for this server is invalid

I am trying to backup my iPad to iCloud. I get:
Verification Failed. The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be "setup.icloud.com" which could put your confidential information at risk.
I am logged onto the wifi at work and I can surf the Internet so the connection is OK.
How do I begin to debug this issue?

Hey everyone,
I had this issue for few months already! I have a @me.com mail address, theoretically should be compatible with iCloud, just for some reason, it's not working!!
The mail all work fine on my macbook and iPhone, just the ipad kept showing the error message, the "verification failed".
The internet is wi-fi and it all working fine.
Now here is the solution.
Make sure you got internet connected fine.
Go Setting --> Mail, Contacts, Calendars --> Add Account --> Other
--> Add Mail Address -->
in the description, it will auto showing "Me", don't change it!
Go "Next" -->
in the Incoming Mail Server
Host Name --> Type "imap.mail.me.com"
Then your user name and password
in the Outgoing Mail Server
Host Name --> Type "smtp.mail.me.com"
Then your user name and password
Then next and save it.
This should work, it works for me,
Hope this helps!!

OK - I am trying to be rude either, just very frustrated.
I hope the OP is not put off and for her benefit I will post this.
If you are looking for galleries and have an otherwise functioning ATV2 read no further.
If you are trying to get your unit to work because:
1) You have selected to send feedback to Apple and then wanted to key in your mobile me address and failed, or
2) Tried to set the iTunes store by using your me address, because they are the same, or
3) You are trying to set up home sharing using your mobile me address
then as part of the set up process you will, having keyed in your .me address and password, have got the message that your mobile me account can not be found.
If you look under the general section, you have the option to set time zone. If this shows Cupertino and you have selected either "automatic time setting" or keyed in another town not on Pacific ST and you are not in Cupertino then date and time have not set.
You can unplug the unit and leave for a few minutes, you can select to reset and restore. You can check that your router allows access to the necessary ports (typically 53, 80, 123, 443, 3689 and UDP 5353).
If your Apple TV on reset and opening the ports, still hangs at "setting date and time," then you are one of a group of people being blocked access for some reason that is not being shared openly - other than my comment above about server issues at Apple's end. This is not malicious but just repeating information posted on this and other fora. I can not confirm or deny, but when every other option has been discounted then only certain solutions remain.
I wish you luck in getting your ATV to work as it should.
PS I don't think cables are an issue here as you obviously are seeing something on the screen to see that you can't log in.

The device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed

the device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed
I have been receiving this message over and over again when trying to publish my iOS app for the app store (I use Flash cc AIR 3.9.1.1080 for iOS and my settings are: "device testing in interpreter mode", as my app uses several swfs).
I have done everything from scratch, as recommended on other sections of the forums: new app ID from my apple developer account, new Distribution Certificates, new Distribution Provisioning Profiles and nothing works.
I can install my app on my iPad if I use the development Certificate and Provisioning Profile and everything seems OK. But as soon as I use the Distribution Certificate and Provisioning Profile get the same message:
the device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed
I have done everything from the beggining over and over and nothing works. Am I the only one having this issue on Flash cc???

Hi Daniel:
I´m far from being an expert on Xcode (or any code) but this is what I did and it worked:
- On Xcode go to Preferences > Accounts > select your App Developer Account, then click "view details" on the lower right corner.
- There you can see which of your "Signing Identities" (Certificates) are "Valid". You should have at least one for Development and one for Distribution.
- Below that window there are two icons which you can use to add, export or revoke a "Signing Identitie" (Certificate).
- Choose the one you want to use (Develop. or Distrib.), export it to the folder of the app you are working on and name it in such a way you can relate it to your app. Before knowing this I was exporting them using Keychain Access and I wasn´t naming them to differentiate each one properly.
- On your Apple Developer account create the Provisioning Profile for your app. I deleted any App IDs or Prov. Profs. which were useless.
- Then on my Apple Developer account I generated a Development Prov. Prof. to install and test my app on my iPad. All went fine.
- Then an Ad Hoc Prov. Prof. again to install and test my app on my iPad. All went fine.
- Then I generated the App Store Prov. Prof. and I was able to install the app on my device without the upsetting error.
- Then I uploaded the app to iTunes Connect with no problem.
These link was useful for me: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/technotes/tn2318/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/D TS40013777-CH1-TNTAG0
You can also search for "Certificates" and "Provisioning" on Xcode help.
Good luck!

WSUS Role on Server 2012 R2 fails - SQL Server Error "Schema Verification Failed SUSDB"

Server is Windows Server 2012R2
After installing the WSUS role with WID, when running the post installation task it installs the SUSDB in single user mode, runs all its scripts but then when it tries to set it it MULTI mode it fails with the error:
Schema Verification Failed SUSDB
If I log onto SQL Management Studio and try to set the database SUSDB to MULTI user mode manually it fails with the same error.
Detaching, deleting the susdb.mdf and .ldf files and re-running the post-installation task fails on the same error.
Uninstalling the WSUS and WID roles, deleting the C:\Windows\WID folder and reinstalling everything once again gives the same error during post installation.
Seems like a nasty bug.
Does anyone have any ideas? Perhaps there is a way to debug "Schema Verification Failed" errors in SQL Server?

Hi,
If the WID can't access "C:\Windows\WID\Binn\DBVerify\SUSDBVerify.dll", this issue may occur.
Please change the account of WID to local system account in services.msc, then restart the WID service.
Then try to start the post-install again.
If issue persists, please check the detailed information of WID log.
Best Regards.
