My email has stopped updating. Help.
My aol account no longer updates my inbox. Says "connecting" for a long time and then I get an error message. I think I screwed up something.
I don't know what's gone wrong but I suspect you are synchronising your email account settings with iTunes and that may now be out of date.
If you are prepared to lose the messages in your outbox and all your data is synchronised to MobileMe or you are confident that you are backed up, the simplest way would be to delete the mail account on the iPhone and add it again. This way the right server addresses will automatically be added. smtp.mac.com should still work but if you add a MobileMe account directly to the iPhone it now uses smtp.me.com instead.
After adding the account back to the iPhone, all your contacts, calendars and on-line mail should come back to the iPhone automatically.
Like I say, be confident you are backed up or have all the data in the cloud first.
If you aren't prepared to do this you can navigate down into the account settings and change the SMTP server address and password.

can not connect the iTunes Store, since the last update 2 weeks ago, iOS 6.1.2 has stopped working, help me, please ....
Ok, I am having literally identical issues with Marathon Max.
I try to connect, and it says, "Itunes could not connect to the itunes store, Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I have contacted my ISP, and they ran a full check, and sayed I should be able to connect to pretty much all websites. I did the whole "ipconfig" thing and that was no help. I also tried the "msconfig" thing, and it sayed it did not recognize it as any kind of command, internal or external command or operable program or batch file. Whats strange is I can connect from another computer just fine, but when offered to upgrade itunes I declined for fear of the same thing happpening. I am tempted to just upgrade it and thus demonstrate that itunes has a flaw in their upgrade. I will save this computers diagnostics, and the other one's too, before and after the upgrade. I look forward to sending more feedback regarding this matter -
My I phone 5 has stopped updating emails, Facebook and the App Store won't load
My I phone 5 has stopped updating email, Facebook and the App Store. Any thoughts please
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss) -
Unfortunately email has stopped
I keep getting an error that says "Unfortunately email has stopped" Sometimes I am not even in my email. I have 3 email accounts set up. One is corporate work email, a gmail, and a time warner cable email account. No I am having problems getting the email to even open. I have a notification on the top of the screen but I cannot open it.
Same here. I've had a Droid Razr Maxx for a year. No recent op system updates. No new apps downloaded recently. About a week ago, phone began displaying same message "Unfortunately email has stopped" every few minutes. I have 2 gmail accounts, a corporate account, and a godaddy email account. If the email app is open (either corporate or goddaddy inbox) and the message pops up, the email app closes automatically. I think this glitch is also the reason my phone has sucked down 1.5 gb in the past 5 days because if I open settings, select data usage, then select email, the email foreground app has used 40 mb in past 7 days, but the background has used 1.63 gb. I'm almost always on wifi and have never come close to using even half a gb until now. Has something hijacked my phone? Is the email app resetting and resynching multiple times in an hour? Is this a software issue? Is this a com.motorola.motoemail issue? I've always had email accounts set to sync every 15 minutes and download attachments over wifi. Haven't changed settings in months. I just realized my battery has also been draining much more than usual. In the past, my screen used the most significant amount of battery, but now my phone says the email is using more than the screen. I am now at a loss as far as troubleshooting.

I keep getting the following message on my phone "Sorry! The application Email (processcom.andriod.email) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" and there is a force shutdown button, which I push but keep getting the message. Any ideas how to make it go away so I can get my emails?
Have you installed any applications recently? A task killer maybe? You can try rebooting the phone and see if that helps.

Mail rss feed has stopped updating
my RSS feed in Mail has stopped updating. The last updates were on August 10. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Same here for a couple of weeks now. Only thing that helps is restarting mail. As seen from all the complaints here, it is a random problem and is continuing for some time now. And i think there will be no help from Apple since they have decided in there wisdom to drop the RSS feeds in the mail app all together from the newer OSX versions. I'm on OSX 10.6.8.

My ipad has stopped updating apps. It doesn't even ask for password, it just oges to the apps screen showing empty progress bars. I've re-synced account and restarted but with no luck. Other than deleting the apps is there anyway around this?
OK. I will work backwards.
You certainly don't want to have to delete apps every time that they need an update, for any number of reasons. Losing data first and foremost would be a drag, but the overall hassle would be absurd. All things being equal, you should be able to update apps in the future after you delete them and reinstall them. I delete and reinstall apps all the time and I am also able to update them when updates are available for the apps. I just wanted to know if you had any success in any fashion installing apps.
Resyncing/refreshing the Apple ID/iTunes account wouldn't seem to be the issue either if you can download apps or other content from the iStores. Your ID is being accepted.
That leaves us with I'm not sure what. But I think I would try this trick fix and see if it helps.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again. -
Hi,
My iTunes is set to automatically update podcasts and keep the last five episodes of each podcast.
However, iTunes appears to stop updating podcasts after several (five?) unwatched episodes and gives me an exclamation mark in the podcast overview. Clicking on that, I get the message: "iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?"
This is not what I intend... and not what I told iTunes to do... (at least this my reading of the below settings)
This stopping is rather less then ideal: (1) if I am going away for two weeks, which I often do, I would still like to have the last five days of news, not the last five days of news back from the date I left, (2) I need to click update for approx. 20 podcast on regular basis, (3) my iPhone is synced to iTunes as soon as I come home, if iTunes does not have the podcasts downloaded, they are not copied over to the iPhone, and the iPhone will attempt to download the episodes via 3G next time I play the podcast on the go, (4) I am mainly using iTunes functions, such as smart playlists and podcasts, through another app (Plex, a fullscreen media player) and it is a pain to have to go to iTunes to manually do things. That is why this bothering me...
How can I get iTunes to behave as intended? (From reading through old posts I know that there is a Doug script adressing this problem, which I have just set up, but I would prefer to use internal settings if possible... maybe I am just missing a setting)
Thank you for your ideas!Thank you for the response, Roger!
OK, that's how it is then.
The iTunes podcasts settings should be reworded in that case because it suggest something different from what it does. And, of course, it would be ideal for Apple to make this more flexible and allow users to set up their podcast downloads in their way and not be so motherly (c'mon, Apple, your users are not as dumb as you think, and they have uncapped Internet connections these days anyway)...
Btw., for anyone interested, this is external script I am using now:
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=updateexpiredpodcasts
Including the "cron job" setup here:
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/2011/12/updated-update-expired-podcasts-v2-2-and-l aunchd-project/
Cannot tell how well it works because I have just set it up, other members of the forum say it works for them...
If anyone knows of in-app solutions, please share... -
ITunes has stopped updating this podcast...
I'm curious if anyone has a fix for this ACTUAL iTUNES MESSAGE:
"iTunes has stopped updating this podcast becasue you have not listened to any episode recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?"
It seems crazy to me that iTunes would just stop updating my podcasts because I haven't listened in a while. It would be just as ridiculous if Tivo stopped recording TV shows because I haven't watched them in a while. It doesnt mean I dont want to listen/watch in the future.
APPLE: FIX THIS!Apple, count me as another user who wants you to do something different here. I would prefer to simply get a message that I haven't listened to a podcast in a while then not have it being downloaded. Especially now with advanced subscription settings that let us change the subscription on a per-podcast basis, this behavior should be changed. Maybe it's already in the queue?
Suggested change:
Just warn with option to stop warning, but always continue to download as per subscription settings.
I have a number of podcasts that I'm "subscribed to" but I don't listen to as regularly as they are published. However when i'm going to hit the road, I want those episodes there, especially on my ipod. I don't want to have wait for them to all update!
FYI for others reading this discussion; here is the Documentation:

ITunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened . .
I found an archived article from two years ago: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8453115 and have found subsequent articles talking about outboard solutions that I have tried and do not work. The problem continues to this day. Why doesn't Apple just fix this themselves?
Exact text of the message, as if it is a mystery: iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?
Yes. Yes. Permanently, yes. Stop asking the question.creativestuff wrote:

Although you may not like the way it's set up, Apple appears to have done this deliberately and therefore does not consider it broken. I suspect that they do it that way to conserve bandwidth.

"unfortunately, email has stopped" message
Hi I owned turbo for a month. I had "unfortunately, email has stopped" message on my corporate e-mail exchange server push account. I reserch the issue and I tried (1) erace the account, (2) wipe cache partition by recovery mode (3) account resister. It made it work to normal while but I already had 3rd time in a months. Can you give me permanent solution for this issue?
Hi. My exchange server connection is push and I also set synchroize the
email once several min. No paticular opearation trigger the massage, I
think. When it happens, E mail keep acessing the server and keep popping
tye massage when email try to contact the server. After I waiped the cache
and reset all email connectin from scratch, The email sync the server
contents till the email which synced just before the massage appear. Then
start popping the massage again. It is suddenly reading again after several
wipe and settng try without any special operation. It is very anoying. Is
it SW issue or HW issue?
