My mail will not update

I just updated my Hotmail account to the new Microsoft outlook but now looks like my Mac's application on my Mac will not update, and then it keeps asking me for my password than I type it in correctly and it says it's incorrect please try again when I go on the Internet it lets me in me and wants happening

are the ports and encryption type set acording to the mail provider?
if no test if it works with wifi because if it does then your carrier are blocking the ports required for receiving imap mail from the mail provider in question

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

  • IPhone Mail will not update

    Using the new iOS for a 3GS. mail will no longer bring in emails since I updated to the newest OS. I can do a reset and it will then bring it in. But otherwise it will go for days without updating messages.

    Hi there,
    Dlawn. Did you try opening the "Settings" app, tapping on the "Mail, Contacts, and Calendars Section", and then tap "Fetch New Data", and then after that, selecting how often you'd like "Mail" to recieve new data?

    If some can help me?? My mac mail will not close when iam finished with it, or will it open when i awake my computer is there an update i need to do??

    As the message comes from AVG yo will need to read about AVG to stop those alerts.
    If you think there is a genuine problem with firefox
    * see [[high memory usage]] <-- clickable link -- <br/> that contains some tips and information about memory usage
    * go to ''about:memory'' by keying that into the location bar <br/> the report that is generated may be of help - it gives tooltip info on mouseover of items, and has a button that tries to reduce memory usage

    Re: Macbook Pro 10.6.8 RAM Upgarde to 8 GB
    The amount of RAM is not dependant on the operating system. It is all about the model of you Mac.
    10.6.8 is the version of OS X that is installed on your system. It has no real baring on the amount of RAM that CAN be installed.
    Personally I have never had good luck with Corsair RAM. I have always had good luck with Crucial and Kingston.

  • Ipad 2 will not respond to mail, using IOS7.0.4.  Also, will not update apps

    Two problems.  Ipad 2 wil not repond to open mail.  Receive Cannot Get Mail error.  The Ipad is using IOS 7.0.4. 
    Also, the apps will not be updated.  The system attempts to update apps but will not update.
    I received a jpeg via email from an Iphone 4 yesterday and I feel like that was when this issue occurred.  In addition, I saved it to my photos.  I deleted the email but not the photo that was saved.  I have tried shutting down numerous times.  Will work for a few minutes then happens all over again.  I have read some old posts that suggest signing out of Itunes account on Ipad, shutting down then starting back up and signing in to Itunes again.  A few apps updated but two others will not update at all.  System keeps attempting to update but nothing happens.

    Thank you.  I did the reset steps and the mail opened.  Tried the internet and no url's will open.  I am sending this to you from my macbook pro.  Went back to Mail after a few minutes to check if it will open again and I get the same error I did before resetting--Cannot Get Mail.
    Thank you.

    2009 MacBook Pro eh? It looks like your hard drive has failed. Three years is pretty standard. Often, then only hint you have is catastrophic failure.
    If you put the old hard drive into an external enclosure or similar device, you may still be able to migrate your data from it. Just because it won't boot doesn't mean you can't still read from it. Still, I wouldn't keep trying it. As long as you are buying a new hard drive, may as well get sometime to use with Time Machine too.

  • Installing maverics: mail-database will not update - it 'hangs'

    Just updated to mavericks
    all seems to work, except that Mail will not start: the database update process seems to hang.
    Is anything known about this? How can I re-start this process manually and re-import the mail data from my ccc backup?
    I am upgrading from mountain-Lion on a 2nd partition of the same disk, just to see if all will work nicely. I did the same thing with my macbook and this worked fine.
    Any intelligence out there?

    Do a backup.
    Quit Mail.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

  • Updated my phone, now e-mail will not send because server does not allow relaying

    Updated iphone 3GS to iOS 5, now my company e-mail will not send "because server does not allow relaying".  I'm just an employee, not an IT type - have no idea what this means and I'm very frustrated. Also infuriated with Apple because THEIR update caused this to happen, yet I have to PAY for their support because I have an older iPhone. Someone please help.

    razmee209, thanks for your reply. After signing up for the community, I saw that I wasn't the only one. However, I think I've solved it by looking over the comments in reply to others with this problem.
    First, I think the iOS5 update may have made the phone default to IMAP setting. I noticed when I deleted my account and re-set it up that there is a large button at the top for either IMAP or POP. It is already defaulted to IMAP, but my account must be POP.  So this is the first thing to check when you're setting up your account.
    Second, I noted some other comments about needing to supply a username and password to the outgoing server even though it says optional. I included those, but got a message that it wasn't recognized (or something like that) and did I want to continue anyway. I told it to continue. After a few seconds, it verified my account, and now everything works.
    Hope this helps others having this problem.
