Outgoing mail can't connect to server after update

I updated my iphone and ipad and desktop when the new update came out. My email works only on my iphone and ipad.  My computer recieves messages, but can not send them.  It says it is "offline" and "can't connect to server" uggggh. This has been going on for at least a month now.  I called Time Warner Cable and they basically said they could not help me.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Hello,
Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.

  • Apple tv can't connect to server after update

    I just updated my apple tv after being bugged constantly to do it. Usually it takes only a few minutes, but this time it took about 90 minutes. Now, even though I can connect to you tube, trailers, and the main splash screen comes up, I cannot log in or connect to the server. What is going on????

    Saw some other posts which said to unplug for 30 seconds... that worked!

  • ITunes can't connect to server after update (window7)

    After I installed itunes 12.1 on my laptop that uses windows seven, I cannot connect to the itunes store. The error it says is
    "Itunes cannot connect to iTunes Store, Make sure you network connection is active and try again"
    I have tried to solve it by flushing DNS settings, but the problem still persists.  As for the pop up blockers, I don't really know which popblockers i need to get rid of.  I got this information off of iTunes for Windows: iTunes Store connection troubleshooting - Apple Support
    I ran a diagnostic and this is the error that popped up. PLEASE HELP!  I HAVE TO USE ITUNES TONIGHT.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    Or roll back to the previous build:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

  • HT4528 I need help!! My email keeps saying "Can't get mail" & "Can't connect to server". How to fix this?

    I have an iPhone 5 with IOS 7 software. MY email keeps saying "Can't get mail" & "Can't connect to server"

    Hi PAG1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend restarting your iPad and trying again to see if that helps:

  • Can't connect to server after binding to domain

    Hey there, I need to join my MacBook Pro to a Windows Domain, I followed all the instructions to set up Directory Access and am able to bind the computer to the Domain, but when I try to connect to server I get the error message: "Can't connect to Server: Directory Services may not be installed on the remote server, they may be turned off, or the URL may have been entered incorrectly."
    None of the reason noted in the error message are true, so any idea of what the culprit may be?
    Thanks,

  • HT204075 Mail can't connect to server because password is incorrect

    Hi,
    Since I updated my mac book air with the last OS X 10.10.2, my email has been completely broken. I cannot send or receive.
    I use Register.com with a personalized email (@perrinparis.com) and have never had any issues before. I spent 1 hour on the phone with one of their technicians who made sure all my settings (ports) were correct.. But it still isn't working. I unchecked use SSL and 'Automatically detect and maintain account settings'.. It still says it can't connect to the server. My hotmail account works just fine.
    I have deleted and re-added my account several times..
    I'm hopeless

    I had the same problem after upgrading to 10.10.2 last week.  Mail.app wouldn't connect to my Yahoo! or iCloud mail accounts.  I tried Unibox instead of Mail and that worked for a week, but then Unibox had the same problem.  Ultimately, what fixed Mail for me was to log out of iCloud in System preferences, delete my Yahoo! mail from System Preferences / Internet Accounts, then restart the Macbook Air into safe mode (hold down the shift key while booting).  While in safe mode, I went into System Preferences / iCloud, logged in, and enabled Mail, and then added my yahoo account in Internet Accounts.  Finally, Mail started to connect to all my accounts and I was able to receive and send mail again. 
    I restarted normally and everything has been working fine since then.  While my reply is not guaranteed to work for you, I sincerely do hope this helps! 

  • I can't connect to server after installing router (WRT54G2)

    Anyone please help. I can't seem to connect to the server, 192.168.1.1 after installing the router. Prior to installation it worked fine. Weird thing is I can connect to the internet through the router and stuff, just can't access the server. Help... thanks

    First of all check the physical connection....From modem to the router on internet port and from the computer to the router on ethernet port1...Power light shoul be solid and there should be wlan,internet and ethernet port1 light.
    Now check for the ip address...Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway... IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
    If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
    If you are not getting the correct ip address then, Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • Mail can't connect to server

    Just got the iPhone 4S. Have been trying to set up my Yahoo mail account. Deleted the account from my iPhone 3GS - but it's STILL saying cannot connect to server.

    I am having the same problem, since about 12:30PM yesterday.  I am in Eastern time zone.  I contacted Yahoo since nothing has changed on my side, and my Plus account is still active.  All they did was give me instructions on how to clear my browser cache and told me to try again in a few hours.  I'm able to access Yahoo Mail just fine via browser, iPad and iPhone...just not Mail on my MacPro.  I do think it's an issue with Yahoo's servers.  There are quite a few reports of OS X Mail users having the same issue around the same time.  The best thing you can do at this point is open up a support case with Yahoo and wait for further info.
    If you are indeed experiencing the same issue, you will see an error icon next to your Yahoo account inbox in Mail.  If you click it, a message will pop up stating "....The attempt to send data to the server "(null)" failed."  This tells me either Mail is suddenly not specifying a server to contact (highly unlikely) or the server has gone down or is not receiving data properly (likely).

  • AOL Mail Can not connect to server

    I am having problems with the email client on the playbook. I have both AOL and Yahoo email accounts. Both accounts downloaded properly since the 2.0 upgrade, but recently, another update was downloaded and now my AOL account keeps popping up "unable to connect to server" but yet the email is there. However, every now and then, when you try to "read" it, it just keeps downloading. Any one else have this problem and know of a fix?

    I would delete the all account and reconfigure it. It should be am IMAP Account.

  • Can't connect to Server- Software Update

    Hello everyone. I recently bought an eMac off of eBay and I wanted to do a software update, but when I do so it tells me that there was a network problem, so when I run the network diagnostics it tells me that while I'm connected to the internet, it can't connect to the server "boemac2.jackson.k12.ga.us"
    I don't know what that server is, I'm using a cable router for my internet connection. But I really need help because it won't let me install newer programs such as Safari 3 without the latest security update.

    I got the same message in the last few days on my iBook G4. It appeared after an update. I then found that Safari also failed to work but Firefox was OK. In addition I couldn't connect set up my wireless connection at home although my MacBook worked fine.
    Go into System Preferences then Network. Have a look at Built-in Ethernet by clicking on Configure. Now look on Proxies. Has a tick mysteriously appeared on the Web Proxy (HTTP) setting and the FTP proxy set to 127.0.0.1? Mine certainly had altered despite the fact that the padlock symbol was clearly closed and no alteration should have been possible.
    If you find it simply remove the tick and save the settings. Restart the Mac and with a bit of luck it should be resolved.

  • Can't connect to Internet after update

    I've had this issue before but I was atleast able to get on iTunes & firefox. After this update my comp can't connect to the Internet period. I called my cable company & everything was working fine on their end. My modem communicates that it's linked my comp by a flashing light. In network prefrences my Ethernet says connected. I do not use a wireless router. I went to the Apple store & managed to get a connection smoothly. After I did the update was when my comp was unable to connect to the Internet, firefox, safari, iTunes NOTHING. I don't have any anti virus programs on my comp.
    Help anyone?

    Anyone???? This all happened after the 10.6.8 update...at the Apple store my Internet worked fine. Once I get this resolved I'm never updating again!
