Problems with POP email accounts set up on iPad air why can't I send emails?

I have an Ipad Air and am having problems with POP email account set up.
I can receive emails however I cannot reply or create a new email and send it.
Is there something I need to fix in Outgoing settings? these are the same as on my MacPro using same ISP provider Optus the only difference is that the Ipad has a prepaid sim card - however still with Optus.
Could someone help please? Thank you

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

HT1430 why can't I send emails via my iphone & ipad?

Why can't I send emails from my iphone & ipad? Everything worked fine last night, but I updated my software yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been having the same problem with one of several email accounts on one iPad2 and one iPhone5. It has been driving me crazy. I have deleted and reinstalled the email accounts more times than I can count and was ready to throw the device out the window. However I just found a post from another user who stated that they were able to solve this problem by confirming that the outgoing mail server password was corrected. Apparently they found that after an upgrade the old password was retained by the server. I had never checked this because it's a few extra steps to get into the outgoing mail server. When I did I found that it was incorrect. Once changed, I was able to send the email again. Problem solved! Also I agree that the other user was rude in commenting to you the way that he/she did. Hope this helps you

Why can't i send email since the ios5 upgrade?

why can't I send emails since ios 5 upgrade?

There are several threads discussing this issue. I tried many suggested solutions without success until one finally worked and I'm sharing it in every thread.
First, here is my hardware/software situation, if your's is diff, then the fix I found might not work.
iPhone 4 upgraded to iOS 5. IMAP email wouldn't SEND
Fix:
Go into setting>mail>your account>Outgoing mail Server SMTP>Primary Server then turn Server ON and fill in both User Name + Password under Outgoing Mail Server.
It seems that in previous versions of iOS, you didn't need to enter your username and password in the outgoing mail server settings, but in iOS 5, IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
Thanks to worapoj for being the first (i saw) to post this simple fix.

I keep getting an error message trying to setup my imap email accounts on my new ipad air. Says user name or password is incorrect but I know for a fact they are correctly entered. How do I correct this?

I keep getting an error message while trying to setup my imap Gmail and Aol accounts on my new ipad air. The error says user name or password is incorrect but I know for a fact they are correctly entered. How do I correct this?

Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

Problem with MS Exchange Account Set-Up

I receive an error message when trying to set up Exchange account on my iPad2: "Unable to verify account information", even though I enter my correct Comcast email address and user name. I've aso tried my Apple username, but that doesn't work either.

I found this online. Same ? was asked to a comcast support rep(or Techhelp?)....
Customer :
Thanks-this is the screen settings that I have on my IPod Touch, but the screen on my IPhone is an Exchange screen. How do I get this screen on my IPhone?
i-cubed :
You will want to select "Other" at the bottom (right below "Mobile Me".
i-cubed :
Do you happen to know what version of iOS your phone is running?
Customer :
Not sure what iOS means (I'm over 40 and technically challenged! :-)), but I have the IPhone 4, 3 G
i-cubed :
In the SETTINGS area, there is a 'button' called GENERAL. When you click that, you should see ABOUT. On the ABOUT page, there is an entry called 'Version'. Hopefully it is either a 4 version of 5 version.
Customer :
version 5.0.1
i-cubed :
Good. Let me check something a minute ...
Customer :
It worked! Thanks! Should I follow the same instructions to enable my IPod Touch to send email messages?
i-cubed :
Yes. Let me get you the screenhsot for the SMTP server for outgoing mail. Comcast uses a non-standard port for this, though IOS 5 has been usually smart enough to auto detect it.

Problem with an icloud account on a 2nd ipad

Hi all
Going to try to type this so it makes sense...
My wife purchased 2 ipads over a year ago for our business. They're even engraved!
One has been working fine and is linked to her main email address (Apple ID) and her icloud account that is linked to that email.
However, the 2nd ipad has not been used for a long time because it seems to be linked to an icloud account that is different to her primary apple id/icloud account. We cannot remember doing this even though the icloud account uses part of her normal email address in it. None of our passwords are working and when I try to restore as new device, it asks for this unknown icloud account's password as it is linked to it. We tried the email verification route...it sent an email but to where we don't know!!
We tried the security route too...but when it asks for birthdate, it doesn't take any birthdates we put in. We are stumped by what happened here to say the least. Is there anything else we can try??

Hello Jovi Guitarist,
If I understand correctly you are unable to use the password reset email that gets sent because you cannot identify the email address that one of the iPads is registered to, and you cannot reset the security questions because the date of birth is being rejected. At this point you may need to reach out to the Account Security team for additional assistance. Keep in mind you will need to verify the account information to receive support.
If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
If you can't reset your security questions
If you couldn't send a reset email, don't have a rescue email address, or can't access email at your rescue email address, contact Apple Support. Apple may ask you to generate a temporary support PIN to verify your identity. After you reset your security questions, you might want to update your rescue email address.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Why can't I send emails from my Macbook Pro. A window pops up saying this: Sending the message content to the server failed. The server response was: An error occurred while sending this message using the SMTP server "(null)"

This is starting to REALLY frustrate me! I used to be able to send emails with attachments perfectly fine with my email, and now all of a sudden it won't work. I work from home, and 8/10 my emails need to have images in them. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!

Contact your internet service provider. They can run some tests to verify the cause of the problem. This sounds very much like an ISP issue.

Hotmail Plus why can't I send email from my Touch

Hi all hope someone can help I have searched but don't seem to be able to find the answer so apologies in advance if this is going over old ground.
I have a paid for Hotmail account I have set it up using the correct settings confirmed by posts here and by the Hotmail help team.
I can receive emails no problem but I cannot send, the Hotmail team claim it is an Apple problem. Can anyone help or advise who/where it is I need to contact.
Cheers

If you want to be able check your hotmail without using the safari browser you can use the free web app called mail coaster www.mailcoaster.com or you can sign up for izymail which allows you to check your hotmail through a pop serveer. Izymail is free for one month and then about $20/year. I believe you will have fewer problems with izymail than your hotmail plus account.

HT4979 why can I not send email when away from my home wifi? Am able to receive messages OK, and outgoing mailserver is correct?

Why am I unable to send email when away from my home wifi ? I am able to receive mail OK, and have double- checked the outgoing server which is correct. This problem is consistent with my Macbook Pro, iPhone, and iPad2.
Attempts to send messages results in them sitting in the Outbox and never- ending 'sending message' displayed.
I am able to send using my me.com server.
Home service provider is Cogeco.
Any help would be appreciated.

Why can't I send email if I can recieve it?

If I am at home, I can send and recieve email on my iphone. I have a Netgear wireless router at home if that matters.
If I am not at home, I can only recieve email. I will get an error message if I try to send.
Anyone know how I can fix that?
Thank You.

because you are probably using your ISP's outgoing mail server. it works fine when you are home because you are on that ISP's internet but when you leave your house you are no longer using your ISP and can no longer use your ISP's outgoing mail server.
for example. if you have a @me.com email and say have comcast's internet service you can send mail from home using comcast's outgoing mail server because you are on their service. once you leave the house you are no longer on comcast and therefor can no longer send mail through their server.
instead of using the outgoing mail server of your ISP use the outgoing mail server provided by the provider of the email. for mobleme the outgoing mail server would be smtp.me.com (instead of your home ISPs mail server which may be something like smtp.comcast.net)
since you mentioned that you do use comcast then it's most likely the issue i described above and i believe the fix requires changing the out going port.
go here and see if this helps with setting up your email account, you may have to remove the account and reset it up:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/mailhelper/
i found this info in another post regarding comcast email:
outgoing: smtp.comcast.net
username: first part of email
password: same as incoming
ssl:on
authentication: password
port: 465

Why can't I send Emails from iPad apps?

When I am using iBooks, or Evernote, or Hootsuite, or just about any application on my iPad that allows me to Email items from within the application, the following happens when I try to send an Email:
1) I click the share button.
2) Choose Emaill
3) Write the Email.
4) Click Send
5) Hear swoosh sound and it appears the Email is sent.
However, the Email is never actually sent. I've tested this mutiple times to various Email addresses and it just isn't sending the Email. The only exception is when I send Emails from within the Gmail app, in which case they send fine.
After discovering this I took our my iPhone 5 and tried to do the same from there with the same applications. I was able to send Emails from within the iPhone applications just fine so this problem is specific to my iPad.
I checked my mail settings and didn't see anything out of order. As I said, I can successfully send Email from the iPad using the Gmail app or just sending it from within a Chrome window.
Thoughts?

I used to be able to send e-mail from within apps on my iPad. Then all of a sudden, I was unable to do it. I changed none of my settings, and my regular e-mail works just fine. One day I could e-mail from within apps, and then next I could not.
When I hit the share button within an app, I then select the e-mail button. An e-mail message opens for composition. It has the subject line filled in, but that's all. It will not allow me to enter the address and it contains no message or link. It's just dead. Sometimes I wait for a while to see if anything changes, but it doesn't.
Did apple change something without telling us?
