My iPhone 5 has suddenly stopped sending emails. I get the message "Enter the password for the Account account "(null)"". This has only happened since the last update to iOS but hasn't been a problem on my iPad. What is going on?

Hello, Taffy12gwen. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here is an article I would recommend going through when experiencing issues with mail.

  • My iPad 2 has suddenly stopped sending emails.

    My iPad 2 has suddenly stopped sending emails. It puts them in the outbox but that's as far as they go.  I've tried turning off ect but no joy. It puts them in the outbox but thats as far as they go.

    The restrictions should have no bearing at all as to why mail is not being sent. It will prevent you from making changes to the emai account, so I don't know how you were able to try what I suggested if you can't get into your mail settings.
    As for the 10 attempts ...... You get as many tries as you need with that passcode. But the catch is that if you cannot remember it and you need to get into the settings, you have to restore your iPad back to factory settings and start all over again. The only way that you can use a backup is if the backup does not contain that passcode. If you restore from a backup that has the passcode in or, you will jut end up in a never ending loop.
    So after having said all of this I would have to assume that you tried my suggestion before you locked yourself out of the settings.

  • My iPad has suddenly stopped receiving emails. I have tried every trick and it's still not working.

    My iPad has suddenly stopped receiving emails from the mail app.
    I've been looking through the forum for hours and tried every variation of deleting the account, re-adding it, rebooting my iPad etc. I've tried everything! And I still can't receive emails.
    My drafts, sent emails and junk emails are all there but my inbox is empty and it's refusing to download the messages.
    When I refresh it, "downloading 1 of 250" pops up for a second and then disappears and it just says it's updated yet nothing is there.
    Please can someone help. This is incredibly annoying!!!
    My mail provider is Yahoo and my wifi is working fine.

  • My iPhone has suddenly started sending emails in Courier New (rather than the standard Arial).  They appear in Arial when I compose them, but turn to Courier new in the sent folder and when displayed to the recipient.  I use Yahoo Mobile Mail.  Help!

    My iPhone has suddenly started sending emails in Courier New (rather than the standard Arial).  They appear in Arial when I compose them, but turn to Courier new in the sent folder and when displayed to the recipient.  I use Yahoo Mobile Mail.  Help!  How can I change the settings so that the sent emails go back to Arial?  Thank you!

    I'm not sure if it's a Yahoo Mobile mail or an iphone issue... have asked the Yahoo forum but no replies yet...  Any help appreciated!

  • Outlook 2013 suddenly stopped sending email

    good morning and happy new year.
    my outlook suddenly stopped sending emails. I can still receive emails. but no luck sending. I've added a new account to my outlook and that one sends/receives fine. I have the email on my phone it sends and receives fine. I've tried uninstalling than reinstalling
    outlook. Nothing changed. tried the quick fix as well as the internet longer fix. same result nothing changed. this is my business email so I really need to get it figured out. Please Help

    Happy New Year.
    Without the detail information of your email accounts, it is difficult to move on. Could you please tell the type of you email account, Exchange, POP3, IMAP or Live account? If it is an Internet account, please detail the email provider, like Gmail, Yahoo
    or else.
    The following link is some common troubleshoot steps for sending and receiving messages issues
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/286040
    In most cases this scenario happens if the sending message is stuck in the Outbox somehow, what we could next do is to identify the cause why it would happen.
    1. Is there any large message remain in the outbox folder?
    2. Authentication problem or simply password expired.
    3. The sending message is called by another application like mailscanner?
    Our MVP Diane has written an useful article that talking about this:
    http://slipstick.com/problems/common-problems-that-cause-email-to-stay-in-the-outbox/#srs
    You may reference it and solve the problem. If the issue still persists, feel free to post back with the error code and message. Thanks.

  • My Mac Pro (2006) has suddenly stopped sending signal to the display monitor.

    My Mac Pro (2006) has suddenly stopped sending signal to the display monitor. It coincided with plugging in an Epson printer via usb - while the system was running. Pretty dumb maybe? Could I have damaged the video card? Anyone ideas? Thanks

    Howdy Le Batch,
    I was looking into the issue you are seeing here, and came across a helpful article for this specific situation. It's named Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays and can be found here:
    When using an external display be sure to check the following:
    If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
    Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
    Monitor and Display Adapter Table
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    If more than one video adapter is in use—or "daisy-chained"—troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Why has my mac mails suddenly stopped sending email

    I have a new mac air--not even 6 months old.  My mac mail has had the same address for almost 10 years.  In the last year my mac mail will suddenly stop sending.  The last time I talked to mac support they said there was a definite problem and when the new update was installed with the fix, it would start working again--it did, a few weeks ago.   Today...it stopped sending again. WHY?

    How are you trying to read them? What process are you using and what applications are involved?

  • TS3899 suddenly stopped sending email

    for the past week my iphone 5 has stopped sending emails from my personal (comcast) account and my work (exchange) account.  Tried resetting phone, removed and re-input email account information, turned phone off for provider to do a reset.  Still nothing.  Verizon is out of ideas to fix this issue.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I was having this issue as well with my Yahoo mail and tried everything. The one thing that worked for me was double clicking the home button, closing the Mail app, then reopening it. Suddenly all my emails synced. Anyone else having this problem should try this. :)

  • Wifi has suddenly stopped working. There is an exclamation mark which takes me to network diagnostics. This asks me for network name and password. This is different from the startup wizard which only asked for a WEP key and modem name. What to do?

    My wifi has suddenly stopped working on my iMac, after working fine for almost a year. There is an exclamation mark on the wifi bars and when I click it, it takes me to a network diagnostics page. This page asks me for my username and password for the wifi, which I don't have. It is different from the WEP key and modem name, which I originally used to set up my connection. I have not experienced any problems on all my other wifi-enabled devices. Ipod touch, iPad, MacBook all work fine. What should I do?

    The name is the name of the network you created on the router. The password is the WEP password. You shouldn't be using WEP at all, as it's insecure and also seems to cause connection failures. Use WPA 2 Personal. If your router doesn't support it, get a new one.

  • IPad suddenly stopped sending emails.

    My iPad was working well until about a week ago when it stopped sending emails.  A message saying that an error occurred and the email could not be sent appears at the screen. Emails are still being received.

    Two things to try:
    1.  Reboot your iPad:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 110 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart. 
    If after rebooting your iPad you still can not send mail:
    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar and delete the mail account
    Then re-enter the mail account
    Make sure you know your ID and passwords, servers, etc., so you can easily add the mailbox back.
    I have had to do this, especially with Yahoo once or twice and after doing so, was able to send and receive again.
