My Comcast email is working but I cant see any old messages

I set up my comcast email and I can send and receive messages but when I go to my inbox or sent it doesnt show any old messages. When I look on my outlook on my computer there are old messages in there so I'm not sure why they're not showing up on my phone. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Your Comcast email account is what is called a POP account.
New messages available at the incoming mail server for the account are downloaded from the server with the email client used to access the account - Outlook on your PC and with Mail on your iPhone. Each email client includes a setting for the account preferences to remove messages from the sever when downloaded by the email client or never. Sent messages cannot be stored on the served with the email client used to access the account and the account mailboxes and messages within cannot be kept synchronized with the server with multiple email clients used to access the account - so the account's Sent mailbox will always be different with Outlook on your computer and with Mail on your iPhone.
If you want the account mailboxes to be the same with both, you need an IMAP account which Comcast does not support.

If you didn't already do so, try uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components (not just iTunes and AMDS), then reinstall iTunes, as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925. Follow the article and uninstall them in the order indicated.

I have tried unintalling and reinstalling as well as doing a soft restart on the printer (Pressing the 6 & #). I have tried putting the IP address in trying to find it that was as well buy the laptop just cant seem to see the printer. Im sure its an easy fix and Im overlooking something.

My email comes in but I cant see the message, only the details. Help!

I receive my mail but no messages. Checked all the settins and they seemfine. What next.? My ac computer works bt not te IPad.

Reset 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.
Or quit the mail app and restart the iPapd. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Restart the iPad.
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.

You cannot track an iPad with the Serial Number.
Report your loss to the police with Serial Number.

Sounds like you actually have a 1st generation as those cannot update beyond iOS 3.1.3.

Why are my tags not syncing for a shared email account? IE One person tags an email as "Work" but it does not show on other users Thunderbird.

Subject says it all for the most part.
A shared email account we'll call "[email protected]" is not syncing tags across other end users Thunderbird. User A will tag an email as Work but it will not sync/show on anyone else's application. I've read that Thunderbird stores tags locally now? Is there a way to sync them up to our IMAP server? Or would we have to revert to a previous version of Thunderbird (if so which)?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

the issue is probably that the server does not support tags..... Thunderbird stores them locally, but syncs them were the server supports it.

Why has my comcast email stopped working on my phone?

Comcast email has worked fine until I tried to send a picture by email. Now doesn't update. Only shows old messages.

Roye805,
I appreciate the device model details. I know it's important to have mobile access to your emails. At this time, this function has been retired from the phone, directly from the app. However, you still have options to access it from your phone, take a look here http://vz.to/1jLeezf .

HT4481 I buy in apple store OS X Lion, but I cant instal, there is message-"The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store"-WHAT SHALL I DO ?.

I buy in apple store OS X Lion, but I cant instal, there is message-"The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store"-WHAT SHALL I DO ?.

Similar experience here but finally succeeded! Here's the summary
Decided to (finally) update MacBook from SL 10.6.8 to Lion (it can't run ML or Mavericks) so this week purchased from UK Apple store. Received redemption code from Apple via email after couple of days and successfully redeemed this in Apps Store.
Under Purchases in Apps Store clicked on "download" and nothing happened! Clicking on the app name "OS X Lion" gave the message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the UK Store". Contacted support but got no useful help there.....
Following day went back to Apps Store and tried again clicking Download - still nothing (apparently - see below) so started thinking upgrade unlikely and £14 wasted.
A little later noticed new icon in Dock and investigating it said downloading Lion - checked Activity Monitor and indeed my internet connection was being hammered. At a little over 4Gb got an error message saying download could not complete (needless to say not happy) and download icon disappeared!!
So with nothing to lose reclicked Download in Apps Store and again no obvious activity and this time no new download icon in Dock - decided to check Activity Monitor again (just in case) and again high level of download activity! Maybe, just maybe, I thought and after about 90 minutes the Lion install screen appeared!
Have now backed up the Installer and successfully installed 10.7.4
I can't offer any explanation why it finally worked - Apps Store still shows "Download" not "Installed" as I would expect and the item is "..still not available.."!

When ever i go to watch videos on youtube or any other apps, the screen goes black. you can hear the video but you cant see anything. how do i fix this?

i have an ipod tough 3g and its like about 4 to 5 years old it works perfectly fine except the home button is abit messed up and the ipod sometimes crashes. but other than that everything is fine. so i was watching something on an app and then al of a sudden i dont see the video i can just hear it. i then think its just the app but when i go on youtube the same exact thing happens. you click to watch a video and you can hear it perfectly but you cant see anything. the screen is just black when u ONLY watch a video. this happened last night so yea.i really hope somebody can help me figure out how to fix this and whats wrongwith it:)
thanks for your time and help!

When it goes black do a very short press of the button on the right upper side of the phone and the screen will reappear. Make it a very short quick press.
OTOH, if you are using the speaker so you can watch the screen as you are talking when it goes dim touch the screen anywhere that it is blank and it will again go bright. On long calls you have to repeat this.
Many folks have had the same problem you described and what I have told you is the best and ONLY way around the screen going blank during a call.
