My mail account is set up correctly but will not receive or send email?

My outlook email account works fine and it has automatically synchronised the set up / account information to my iphone 4s via itunes when syncing. However I cannot receive or send emails! Anyone know of the reason for this?

Do not attempt to sync email accounts. Security features hardly ever allow this to work without any edditing. Contact your email provider to find out the settings and servers they are using for mobile devices and then remove the existing account from settings, mail contacts calendars and create a new acccount there. After the setup is finished check all the settings of the crated acccount to ensure all sections are populated with information. Especialöly it might be neccessary to fill some fields in the smtp primary ßerver settings that are rated as optional.

I applied for a Paid Books account, but did not receive a confirmation email.

I applied for a Paid Books account, but did not receive a confirmation email. Now when I try to log in to upload another book, I get a message that says,
"The iTunes Store account entered has already applied to distribute content on the iBookstore. To continue with this application, you must enter a different iTunes account." How do I even log in to the account that I already applied for???

Did you use an existing Apple ID or create a new one just for paid books sales/distribution?

Outgoing server settings entered correctly but will not update and tries to send under old settings

I can receive all of my emails correctly but can not send any emails. I have set up under a different program and it works fine. I have tried to update thunderbird by its settings and it does not provide any options?? I am running ubuntu 14.04lts.
My outgoing mail settings are correct but when thunderbird tries to send it uses old settings and does not update to the new mail server.

I have a new iPod Classic 160Gb. i have an iTunes Account, it recognizes my device but will not sync my library of music to my new iPod. What do I need to do?

I have a new ipod Classic 160GB. I already have an Itunes account. The Itunes account recognizes my device but will not sync my library to this new device.
What do I need to do?

Hi Amy2250,
Have you tried to sync music to the iPod via the iPod subdirectory of iTunes? To do this, plug your iPod into your computer, go into iTunes, click on the iPod tab, click on 'Music' in the iPod subdirectory and select whether you want to sync your whole iTunes library or just selected songs and press sync.
Alternatively, have you tried manually transferring music onto the iPod using the 'drag and drop' method? To do that, go into iTunes with your iPod connected, click on the iPod tab, in the iTunes iPod Classic subdirectory click on the 'Summary' tab, then tick the box saying 'Manually manage music' and click save. Then, in the same subdirectory click on the 'On this iPod' tab and click on Music. Then, select the songs you want to transfer either in Finder or Windows Explorer, select the songs you want to copy to the iPod and drag them to the blank list in the 'On this iPod' area of iTunes you just opened.
Good luck,
stefanrandomly

I just bought the 100-400 IS II. The lens hood mounted correctly but will not come off.

I just bought the 100-400 IS II through Amazon. The hood clicked in place nicely, but will not come off. Yes, I am pushing the button. I hate to send it back. Any suggestions?

Try turning the lens gently, at the base of the lens, clockwise, to loosen the pressure...when pushing the release button. I assume you mean the lens won't turn, when you push the release button..

My IPod nano 6 connects to my library but will not receive new music and playlists

My ipod 6th generation will not receive new songs and playlists from my library on my PC. My ipod shows up in the itunes library when I connect it. It syncs when it is plugged in to computer but the sync is very short. I changed to a new computer back in September 2013. My old one crashed. I have synced my ipad 2 and my iPhone 4S to itunes library on the new computer. All these devices show up in the "manage my devices" list except my ipod 6th generation. There is no "add device" to this itunes account, only an option to deauthorize the computer, the iPhone or the ipad.
The ipod downloaded songs that I added to my computer library on my new computer, but will not add new purchased songs nor library playlists.
My computer is shared with my husband. His user account on the same computer shows up in my "manage devices" section of my itunes account. He doesn't use it. I thought I had to add my itunes on his part of the computer because his is the "main user".
I'm not sure what to do. Should I take my computer, iPhone, ipad and nano to an appointment at the Genius Bar at the Apple Store? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I kept working at this after posting. On the sync page for the ipod on itunes library I chose to remove the iPods association with my old computer. It erased all the old content from the old computer and then put all my checked songs from the new computer on my iPod nano.

WLC is ARPing but will not receive answer from vlan-switch

Hi - this is my first posting in theese forums - hope I get it right
Setup: a procurve-vlan-switch (2915) is connected directly to a cisco-wlc (2504) on two ports.
     Port 1 on the wlc has the management- and apmanager-interface, untagged, connected to untagged port on procurveswitch.
     Port 2 on the wlc has a dynamic interface (vlan 100) connected to tagged (vlan100) port on the switch.
Port 1 I can ping, and everything works as it should, LAP connects and so on.
Port 2 I can't ping, and it will not let clients get an ip-address i the vlan100 segment.
     Wireshark tells me, that wlc sends arp-requests to the vlan-gateway on the procurve switch, and also that the switch replies in the same vlan (with tagged packets). But the WLC will not pick theese answers up and keeps ARPing for the gateway. Result is = no dhcp-answer to the clients.
Workaround: If I first ping from the wlc to the gateway, everything works for 5 minutes, i.e. I can ping the dynamic interface on the wlc and clients get ip-addresses, but when the arp-cache times out, everything goes black again.
BIG question: Can anyone help me with this? Why will the wlc not pick the arp-answer from the switch? The wlc asks with tagged packets and get tagged replies imediatly but will not listen
Sincerely
Nicholas Wolf Haamann

Is there a reason you are using two separate ports on the WLC?
Generally you would just create a Trunk port to the WLC and all traffic would pass over it.
The fact it works for 5 minutes makes me wonder if the WLC is somehow using the same MAC for both ports. What MAC addresses does the MAC address table on the HP switch show for both ports?

What do you see for that account if you invoke Mail's menu option Window > Connection Doctor?
Pay particular attention to the settings under the "Advanced" tab for that account in the Mail preference "Accounts" panel.

My mail will not let me send emails but will let me receive.. Any ideas how to fix this?

Please help, tried everything to fix this

This is an Ongoing problem with the built in Mac Mail program. Almost everyday there is at least one post, if not 10 posts, about the same thing on these forums.
Most Mac Fan Boys will respond with "It must be your ISP has changed settings". But every other device you have, Phone, Pad, other computers, whether Mac or PC, have NO problems getting and sending mail with those exact same settings as used in Mac Mail and that Mac Mail worked a few hours ago or yesterday and now it doesn't.
I suggest you switch to some other Mail program, Any other Mail program, and this type of problem will never happen again.

Mail will not receive nor send mail, very annoying

Hey all. I have this problem in Mail that it will not send nor receive the mail. I know you're gonna tell me to look in the forums as well as the support documents, but I have done those like...10 times? So I seriously need help. Both my yahoo and Gmail accounts will not work anymore. All the settings are all right and Mail used to work like a dream. I suspect it's something to do with the servers because when I try to set up mail in Entourage, it won't work as well. Any ideas. TIA! By the way, I can excess my mail through the Gmail website. When I try to excess my Gtalk account through Adium, it won't connect as well.
Message was edited by: I love my macbook!

Hi,
Sorry to hear that your email doesn't work.
Can you please explain what your settings are?
Take each account separately. Try to work on one at a time.
My wife uses gmail from Mail, and every few months something stops working. Each time, I find that Google has changed something on their end that requires me to change/tweak one of her settings. I find the help on gmail.com to be invaluable for this. Make sure that they are exactly the same as in the help files.
My wife's parents use yahoo for mail. There email also sometimes fails. I don't know why. They live in Europe, so I'm not sure if it's just that they are awake when most of us in the western hemisphere are asleep when they do maintenance or something. It seems to just stop for a day or two, then work again. Yahoo also has some help files.
