Outgoing email won't send after iOS5 update.

After I updated for iOS5, neither my Mac, iPhone4 or iPad2 will send email. The outgoing server setting is correct but I get a "connection to outgoing server failed" notice each time I try to send an email. Seems like an Apple issue. Any suggestions.

I've had emails get "stuck" in my outbox on the phone - try restarting the phone and see if that jogs it into sending. If that doesn't work, delete the account from your phone and recreate it.

IPhone won't backup after iOS5 update

I recently updated my iPhone 4 using a friend's computer to get the new iOS5 update. Long story short, my computer has ruined 2 iphones attempting updates, therefore I used another computer. I had to delete all of my data in order to receive the update from a different computer so when I brought the phone home to put all of my data back on the phone, it froze on step 2 out of 8 (backup). I've even left it plugged in all night and that doesn't work. I have talked to the apple support line three times already. They've suggested that I disable antivirus (didn't work) and also completely uninstall iTunes and reinstalling (also did not work). Someone please help me! An iPhone that won't hold my own music, apps, videos and photos anymore is 100% WORTHLESS!

If you are using a Mac, go to Settings>Software Update ... check for any updates, and update all.

Why is it that each time I upgrade my iPad, half of my apps won't work properly but worst of all my email won't send after the latest "patch" today, wake up Apple I am a new user and getting sick of this problems

WHy is it that each time I get an upgrade some of my Apps won't work when they did with the previous version. I have just upgraded to v7.01 and now I cannot send email, wake up Apple and get it right as I am a new user of Apple technology and not impressed.

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

Outgoing Email Won't Send

Problem: I can't send email from Mail.app via SMTP. When sending the program attempts to make the connection, but the message comes back with an error at the top: "Cannot send message using the server smtp.east.cox.net". (That's the correct name of the server I'm attempting to use.)
The same settings work fine for Entourage, and mail downloads without issue in Mail.app. Server authentication is only username/password, though I've tried various combinations of SSL, waiting to be prompted for the PW, etc, with no success. The problem persists across port settings as well. (I even tried plugging the IP address in directly; no joy.)
Version 2.0.7 of Mail and 10.4.6 of OS X, though the exact same symptoms manifested themselves in Mail 2.0.5 and OS X 10.4.5.
I'm fresh out of ideas. Anyone have any suggestions, hints, tips, or tricks?

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
Based upon the info at the link below, it would appear your setting for the Outgoing Server authentication should be None, and no password. Mail attempts a "hard" authentication when Password is select, but since Cox authenticates the SMTP based either upon the Incoming Server or upon the IP address of the modem, the additional, separate authentication attempt on the Outgoing results in failure. Entourage can treat this differently, and has a special setting (I think) if the "hard" attempt is required. See:

Outgoing mail won't send after upgrading to Mountain Lion

I've just upgraded to Mountin Lion from 10.6.8 and can't send mail out. I've checked all my username and password details are correct but it still won't work. Doesd anyone have any suggestions. IN coming mail sems to be fine.
Thanks Adam

Many Users who have Upgraded to Mountain Lion are having the problem that you are having, myself included. The following solution helped me.
It sounds like you may need to go into Mail>Preferences>Accounts and Complete setting up you Gmail account. It may not be finished being setup. For instance, note the line below to be selected from the drop down list in "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP", then click on "Edit SMTP Server List" and complete all of the required Gmail information in the next windows:
Hope this helps

When you look at the storage usage of the iPod in iTunes (the colored bargraph) , how much is in the "other" category? If very large yu will have to restore you riPod to get it down to is normal less than about 1/2 GB.

TS3276 how does one select a folder for an outgoing email, prior to sending out that email?

I would like to know what I need to do to select a folder for my outgoing emails before I send them. In other words, if I am sending a message to someone, Outlook has the option to select the folder where you would like to save the outgoing email to. That way, you are able to document all of your important outgoing emails. I was wondering if Apple mail had the same option. I know you can set rules up, the challenge is that the rules do not always apply depending on the email messages.
Thank you for your assistance.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Emails won't send from Hotmail account on iphone as message says password is incorrect

I recently had a problem with my hotmail account which meant it was blocked and I had to go through a securitiy process to unblock my account and change my password. I can now use my hotmail account again and changed the password on my phone settings to be able to use this account on my phone again. However, when I try to send emails from my iphone from my hotmail account, it says my password is incorrect and the emails won't send. I am also not convinced that I am receiving all emails, although some came through when I initially re-added the account. I have tried to delete the account and add it again, as well as restart my iphone, but I am still having the same problem. The password I have for the account is correct! I would be so grateful if anyone could help.
Thanks.

For anyone else having this problem I have found a solution! You need to change the outgoing server settings as well as the incoming server password which appears on the main settings page. Go into the account in settings and select the box under outgoing mail server. Click on the box under primary server. This will take you to the settings, including the password which you can change.

TS1307 My email won't send as when it was set up an extra letter was accidentally inserted in the address. I need to know how to remove the entire email address and start a fresh.

My email won't send as when it was set up an extra letter was accidentally inserted in the address. I need to know how to remove the entire email address and start a fresh.

Launch Mail.app, select Mail > Preferences... > Accounts and select the account you need to edit in the left column.
The receiving information will be displayed for the selected Account, with a pop-up selector for the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) toward the bottom. That selector shows which mail server will be used with this account; to send mail.
Click and hold on that selector, and scroll down (holding the mouse or trackpad clicked) to Edit Mail Server List... and you'll get a sheet dropping down with the mail servers listed.
Select the problematic mail server, and edit it using the Account Information and Advanced items on that sheet.

Emails won't send from any account

Hi all,
Had a problem for an unknown period of time now where emails won't send from Mail on the iPad. I had a couple of people ask me why I hadn't responded and after saying I had, they told me they hadn't received anything. I checked my sent box and the emails hadn't been sent.
I thought it was just with iCloud.
I have just tested it with another iCloud account and also my Gmail account and none of them will send an email. All work perfectly on my iMac - and Gmail works perfectly on my phone.
The strange thing is that I get the sent noise as soon as I hit sent, which is why there's been confusion. It doesn't sit in drafts or fail to send. There's no error. As far as you can tell it does sent - but it's never in the sent items/outbox and never received the other end.
Any ideas? Such a frustrating problem that I've never, ever had before.
Thanks for any help,
Ste.

Oddly, the test email sent from my Gmail account on my iPad has just appeared (after a five minute or so delay).
The email however, is still not inside the sent folder - there's still no record of it having been sent.
Problem persists in full for iCloud - nothing sending from iPad and being received by the recipient.

ITunes won't open after OS update to Yosmite

ITunes won't open after OS update, ITunes has been updated, it won't open or bounce. It will not allow me to move it to trash or reinstall it. I have already updated to OS X Yosmite two times as directed by apple, I have rebooted in safe made as well as Command/Option/P/R before start up. I have opened console/system log to see if there is anything going on but when I click on Itunes nothing happens, not even so much as half a line of script. I'm stumped. If I wanted someone to tell me to turn it off and on again I'd just watch IT Crowd. please help

Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
If you head into your applications folder and locate iTunes. Right click iTunes and show package contents. In there there will be a contents folder --> MacOS --> double click on the iTunes terminal icon. This should force iTunes to open via a terminal window and at the very least it will tell you what it is getting stuck on.

After ios5 update, iCal week view Oct 2-8 has 2 Saturdays?

Is anyone else having problems with iCal week view on iPad after ios5 update?
Two major changes have occurred...
1. Week view used to start on Monday, now Sunday (and can't change it back).
2. If you look at the week October 2-8, 2011 there are 2 Saturdays and no Friday or following Saturday...
Any ideas? Is this a wait for ios5.1 issue?
Cheers
Chris
