Push email not working since purchasing iPhone 3G

Yesterday I bought an iPhone 3G to upgrade from my old iPhone. With the old iPhone and 2.0 installed, push email worked fine, as did the calendar and contacts to the most part.
When setting my new iPhone up, I told it to set up like my old iPhone which it did, but now push mail is not working. Calendar and contacts are fine, just mail. I've tried switching things on and off, restarting the phone, etc. but all to no avail. I've even deleted the MobileMe (who ever names these things should be shot... from now on I will call it iTools!) account, and recreated it using the assitant on the iPhone, but still nada... I still have to fetch the emails.
Anyone got any ideas. Thanks.

iTools would be a stupid name too. It is not a set of tools, it is a set of features for your MOBILE phone. and it's like Microsoft Exchange whose first letters are M and E. i'm sure that ain't their reason, but it's just fine by me.
As for your problem, I've had some intermittent problems with my mobileme email being pushed as well. i'd say about 75% of the time it works (98.2% of statistics are randomly made up on the spot, including all those in this message!). i just chalk it up to growing pains and hope it fixes itself soon or i'll go back to my Exchange server which has been flawless so far.

  • C6-00. PUSH EMAIL not working and Nokia Messaging ...

    Nokia Messaging doesn't delete / expunge with IMAPand PUSH EMAIL not working.. C6-00

    I had a bad experience with my gmail account. It was really slow. 15min looks to work but it won´t make it faster as push email is not supported by gmail when using nokia devices ( I have read it somewhere on a gmail mobile compatibility chart at google help pages)
    I have created an ovi mail account and it works as push email on my c6 00 (latest firmware). I have setup gmail to send a copy of all the incoming emails to my ovi account, so I have instant feedback at my phone of incoming mails.
    The bad news of this workaround is that when I reply i´m doing it from my ovi account where y erase the mails after reading as I have the original mail at gmail.
    I hope this helps someone that needs push+gmail.

  • Push email not working through iCloud?

    I have an iphone 4 with iCloud setup on both my iPad and the iPhone.
    Have been using iCloud email since it was released and have used it on Push email which has been working great!
    For the past week on and off, it has not been working, I suddenly open the Mail app and I get a bunch of unread emails! I am aware that apple has had to suspend its Push email in Germany, but was not aware of anywhere else (I am in the UK.)
    Anyone else having these problems, or is it an Apple Support job? Have tried adding/deleting the icloud email etc, no changes...
    Cheers

    I'm from Germany. I've the same problem. Push is not working. I guess it's because of the Motorola patent trouble... Goggle told me. Really annoying! Do u still have the problem? Found a solution?

  • Push email not working

    Push email is not working on my iPhone 4s. It was working fine then stopped. I have Hotmail, Gmail, Outlook and AT&T accounts. I've restored my phone in an effort to repair. I'm now running, as of today iOS 6.1.3 but the problem developed before upgrading after I turned Push off temporarily to save the battery. Now I can't get it to work again. I have Fetch New Data in Mail Settings set to Push. Each type of mail account has specific settings and when, for example, one of them is Mail Folders to Push, I have that set to Inbox. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Actually, there are some workarounds. There is one posted in the following CNET article. Note, however, that the page needs some repair. There are photos to illustrate the article that should enlarge so you can see them clearly, but only the first of all the photos does this properly. The others don't enlarge. I've emailed CNET about the problem.

    There are some other ideas out there on the web if you care to Google around for them.

  • Nokia E7 - Push Email Not Working

    I have recently upgraded to a Nokia E7 from a Nokia E72 and I am now experiencing push email problems?
    I configured my Gmail account on my E72 in seconds and the push email worked beautifully and I received mail within 30 seconds of it being sent to my email address. I tested this myself!
    So why is there such an issue getting push email to work on my E7? I imagined it would be easier and better, but I have been mistaken.
    Is there any way at all to correct this problem? Mail only comes through when I manually sync, but this is frustrating!!
    Any help will be appreciated!!

    I am also experiencing issues with Nokia messaging since Anna update. Prior to this it was working fine with Symbian^3 making me feel happy for upgrading from E72
    But this joy didn't last for much time as I discovered immediately after updating to Anna that mail isn't working anymore. I eagerly upgraded to Anna as soon is it is available on 18th Aug but since then I wasn't able to receive or send mails from the accounts that are already configured. Having waited for about more than week anticipating some quick app update to fix the issue I tried deleting and adding the accounts again. Since then I repeatedly see a error message that "Cannot enable the mail service that allows you to fully experience your favourite providers because connection to the mail server is not possible with the settings provided.
    Select 'Next' to set up mailbox without this service. You can attempt to connect to the server by adjusting the mailbox settings later."
    Status remains same even after resetting the device completely for seven times and Nokia care has advised me to reinstall Anna firmware using OVI suite from a PC rather than using OTA update. However I haven't had any luck and the issue continues.
    Though this seems to be a pain all the early adopters of Anna on E7, N8 and C7 are in, there isn't still an acknowledgement from Nokia to our pity. Seems that they are helping their competitors rather than the customers by forcing them to jump the ship.

  • Exchange Push Email Not Working

    Hello,
    I am at a complete loss. I cannot get exchange push email to work at all on my iPhone 4 (OS 4.1). This is what I have done so far:
    - deleted and added account back (many iterations)
    - DFU'd phone, added account back
    - tried same exchange account on a brand new phone at the apple store, did not work
    - worked with exchange provider, it works in their lab on their test iPhone
    -worked with Genius bar for 2 hrs, can't get it to work.
    Any more ideas???

    Please describe in detail how you created the account. Is it specifically created as an Exchange account, or as IMAP? Does it verify during the creation process?
    You MAY have a timing problem. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398

  • Push email not working today, was working yesterday

    Updated to 2.0 yesterday, push email was working - i'd get mail pretty much instantly. Today it's not working, i'm having to fetch my mail. I'm using a .mac address. Any ideas?
    iPhone 2G with 2.0 on O2 (UK).

    I think it's using SMS to push emails to the phone, and it doesn't tell the email software to send/receive it only displays the part of the email that was in the SMS. At least you can manually send/receive to catch up.
    Yes, I think you're correct with that. That seems to be the way all the "cloud" stuff that Apple will let developers push to the phone is going to work. Like a chat client, for instance. No persistent connection to look for incoming messages, instead the IM routes to Apple's server, which sends a message to the phone chat client that there's new data and to come look for it.
    Good for battery life.
    Re: the delete on the Mac not showing on the phone, shouldn't the mail client do a sync via imap every time you even open it? That's the way it was working before 2.0. I haven't had time to play with it yet to confirm.

  • Nokia Messaging push email not working

    Hey, i am using a Nokia C3, already subscribed to a nokia messaging service through the operator. Using communities, mail and chat are all ok, except the push email. The push email is not working, sometimes it works, but mostly its not working. I tested to send email from my PC and the email never arrive on my phone. But when i open the mail application and synch, the email will be there. So, the push mail is not working. I set it up correctly i guess, i already set the settings to 'follow my account setting' and the account setting update inbox 'very fast'.
    When first using this phone i use an "A" operator, subscribed to nokia messaging service, and then register the email in the mail application. Several week ago i changed to operator "B", and already removed the email and re-adding again. Any solution? Thanks before.. 

    now the both function is working fine in my phone. space bar light and nokia messaging ( push email ) the thing is once it go for low battery profile mode. after that i charge my batter full also my push email will not work. once phone got restarted then it will start works. if my active power saver mode then if we charge my phone also it will not work even in full charge i need restart. before my phone got power saver mode my push email is working fine. once it go for active power saver mode then we charge full also push email will not work. again i need to restart my phone. for this issue what has to be done ? can any one suggects me regarding the same

  • IPhone 4 Google Sync Push Email not Working?

    Hi all,
    I don't seem to be getting push e-mail on the iPhone. Overnight I sent a couple e-mails to my iPhone, but the phone did not pick up the messages until I manually launched the mail client.
    Shouldn't the phone have received a e-mail notification regardless?
    I'm using Google Sync with the Exchange Server settings.
    I'm on WiFi at home - does Push require 3G to work correctly?
    Message was edited by: coolspot

    I recently got an iPad and had the exact same problem! - except I'm using Gmail.
    I take it you are attempting to set it up through hotmail as you cannot see the Exchange server settings then?
    Well, seen as I couldn't get my gmail account to push emails, I set my gmail up with Exchange and have found that the option to enter the server is found later on, did you try entering the required fields in Exchange and proceeding to the next page of the setup?
    Settings > Mail, contacts, calendars > Add account > Exchange > enter your email address, password, and description > Then when you press next the server option should pop up where you can enter col-m.homtail.com, leave the domain blank, and re-write your email address in the username.
    I am using iPad 4 version 6.0.1 also and this worked for my Gmail.
    Hope you get it fixed!

  • Push email not working consistently  after 2.0 upgrade

    Before 2.0, I was always notified on my iphone of new incoming email nearly instantly.
    Since 2.0, I find myself only getting my email via my iphone if i manually check it. Otherwise, its rare now that im notified of new incoming email on my iphone.
    Push will sometimes work, but very rarely.
    What gives?? Please help.

    Thanks everyone for all the info. It was helpful, but I finally just called the Apple store and spoke with a genius and she talked me through.
    I am using my .mac account, and all my settings are on Push and I am set for Every 30 Minutes.
    I really have no reason to be opening my emails when I am working. Every once in a while I can check and if I have an email great if not no big deal.
    I am a dog walker so all my clients either text or call me.
    Thanks again everyone. I LOVE MY IPHONE.:)

  • Bitten by the Apple once again--Push email not working on iOS

    I can't believe they screwed up again just like MobileMess. This is what I get for trusting there was NO way they'd make the same mistake and, again, being an early adopter.
    Anyone RELIABLY getting push email from iClod (not misspelled by accident) on iPhone 4 running iOS 5?  If so, has it always worked and, if not, what was your fix?

    Doesn't work for me, and it's really getting on my nerves!
    I use Hotmail, and my husband used Yahoo.de.  Neither of us can receive via PUSH emails and have to open the mail app to check if anything important is there.  Doesn't sound like PUSH to me, obviously it does to Apple.
    WHY OH WHY was none of this picked up during BETA testing????!!!!!!!
    If we turn off iCloud, then I believe it may work, but then you are unable to use FINDMYIPHONE, so we have to decide what's more important?  I find it outrageous!
    I've tried deleteing all my email accounts, but that did NOTHING.  I've toggled push on and off; left the phone off for over half and hour and rebooted.  No improvement. 
    VERY POOR service from Apple.

  • Exchange email not working since update

    Help! Before the update, my POP accounts weren't working (wasn't receiving new email unless I turn phone off and back on). Now POP seems to be working, but my corporate Exchange account is totally not working. There is a (new) yellow banner message that appears in email list saying Connecting to Server. And then it seems to get stuck there. It somehow downloaded 1 message (the first one that came in) since the update of my phone this morning. But since, it won't Push any more email.
    Also, I think my GPS got worse. When I was outside earlier (granted, I was around tall buildings) it wouldn't get a lock--not even after 5 minutes. WIll have to test further.

    Thanks for the tip.
    I was having the same problem, although it was kinda nice in a way not to be getting instant email notification.
    But I'm back to normal.
    Uninstalled and installed and my nose is back on the grindstone.

  • S6 PUSH EMAIL NOT WORKING

    I am having a problem using Exchange with my new S6. Sync is set to Automatic, but unlike my S5 it does not appear to receive "Push Email" unless I open the application or touch the open email screen.  Then the blue bar across the top starts running. It fetches the email, but it is often email sent some time ago. No problem on any of my other devices.  I have already deleted the account and reinstalled but it does no good.  On the S5, due to the known battery issue I had switched it to checking every 5 minutes instead of push. There is no option for that here as 15 minutes is the shortest time possible.  Has anyone else had an issue and know of a work around?  Thanks.

    Same thing was happening to me. After an hour on the phone with VZW tech support and Samsung tech support they determined that there was no issue at all and everything was working perfectly. Still no email pushing, though. Samsung tech support was especially useless.
    The issue issue seems to be with the stock mail app. I downloaded an app called Nine Mail from the play store, removed my exchange account from the accounts settings on the phone, and e-mail and calendar syncing has been flawless ever since. I get emails on my phone before they even show up on my desktop now and no battery issues like on the S5. The app is not free, though on sale right now, and is free to try for a couple of weeks. I'm not shilling for the app, I'm sure there are others too, but the Outlook Preview for Android that Microsoft released is a joke, and this one seemed to work for me and has made me decide to keep the phone when I was planning on shipping it back to VZW earlier in the day because of these ridiculous e-mail issues and the seeming lack of ability to support the product.
