Safari not responding on ipad 2. Checked wi-fi, it's working. Ipad not receiving or sending mail, either.

I recently uploaded the new iOS6 operating system. My ipad worked fine until this morning. Watched video podcast, received early mail, but when I wrote 4 email messages I found them remaining in my inbox, and I was unable to get new mail, or to update facebook, or find webpages on Safari. Got the message 'server not responding.' I rebooted my wi-fi modem. Didn't help. Called wi-fi tech server. They couldn't find a problem. Wi-fi works on my computer and iphone. Checked settings. Wi-fi on and connected. Closed all apps, and re-booted ipad. Held down home botton and off button on ipad until the applea appeared, and waited. Problem remains. What else can I try?

I was unable to fix it on my own. My son suggested that I take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store. Fortunately I was going to be in the city, and was able to make an appt. with the store closest to me. A very helpful young 'genius' took my iPad in the back room and fixed it. I don't know what he did, but he said something about 'firmware'. I don't even know what firmware is, but he said it was unlikely that the problem would recur. There was a sense that it had to do with the new IOS6. If you are able to visit an Apple Store that is what I recommend. Make an appointment first online at Apple.com. The service is free and I was VERY grateful to have my iPad restored!

HT1277 My AOL account will not receive or send mail

My AOL mail account will not receive or send mail. It has a triangle with exclamation point in it next to inbox, when i click on that it says "there may be a problem with mail server to network, check AOL settings". Also says PORT 993 timed out

Hello krissyann00,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I understand you are having issues with your AOL email account on your Mac. The following webpage includes many resources that may provide more help and possibly lead to a resolution:

Hello I have upgraded my iPad again. It seems that something gets upset each time. This time my mailbox has become unstable. It does not receive or send mail. I know my wifi is fine because my laptop is fine. I have switched off the iPad again and again.

Not sure you got my earlier message so I am posing my question again.
Having upgraded my iPad to the more recent OSsomething, my mailbox no longer receives or sends emails.
My wifi is fine, checked with my laptop which works fine. I have switched off the iPad many times but the problem remains. Can anyone help?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
That's not the same as turning it off or on.
Another things to try is to reset your settings. Use the Settings app for this.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
You will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
If the problem persists after the reset check your email accounts on the iPad. You could delete them and add them back. This is also done in the Settings app.
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar

My Mac Mail no longer works (does not receive or send mail)

I have had my MacBook for maybe a year now, and I don't really use the mail often. The last time I was able to send and receive mail was back in October. Now it will no longer work.. I get a pop up that's always asking me to put in my mail password, but nothing happens. I even tried going to preference to change my password and it won't allow me.
When I try to send mail, the little paper plane icon is not clickable. Nothing happens. The only thing I can do is exit out of the message or save the draft. And I can not seem to get mail at all from anyone. I haven't touched any setting either, so I don't understand why it no longer works. My bank can no longer send me emails nor can my friends send me emails anymore.
Does anyone know how I can possibly fix this problem and get my email up and running again. Thanks in advance for all the advice.

Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
"The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

How do I get my US based iPad to receive and send mail when I am in Trinidad?

I'm visiting Trinidad. I can connect to the Internet, but I cannot send or receive email.
If anyone knows how to make email work, I would very much appreciate your help.
I live in New York City.
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.

Mail will not receive nor send mail, very annoying

Hey all. I have this problem in Mail that it will not send nor receive the mail. I know you're gonna tell me to look in the forums as well as the support documents, but I have done those like...10 times? So I seriously need help. Both my yahoo and Gmail accounts will not work anymore. All the settings are all right and Mail used to work like a dream. I suspect it's something to do with the servers because when I try to set up mail in Entourage, it won't work as well. Any ideas. TIA! By the way, I can excess my mail through the Gmail website. When I try to excess my Gtalk account through Adium, it won't connect as well.

Hi,
Sorry to hear that your email doesn't work.
Can you please explain what your settings are?
Take each account separately. Try to work on one at a time.
My wife uses gmail from Mail, and every few months something stops working. Each time, I find that Google has changed something on their end that requires me to change/tweak one of her settings. I find the help on gmail.com to be invaluable for this. Make sure that they are exactly the same as in the help files.
My wife's parents use yahoo for mail. There email also sometimes fails. I don't know why. They live in Europe, so I'm not sure if it's just that they are awake when most of us in the western hemisphere are asleep when they do maintenance or something. It seems to just stop for a day or two, then work again. Yahoo also has some help files.

HT4528 My iPhone and iPad will receive .msn e-mails, but I cannot respond to them, getting a message that says "User name or password incorrrect" when the same username and password works on mt MacBook Pro. What gives?!

My iPhone (and iPad) will receive .msn e-mails but will not allow me to respond or forward, giving an error message that says the username or password are incorrect for the SMTP, but the same configuration allows me to receive AND send from my MacBook - what can I do to correct this?

Alright, I'll take a mea culpa on this. I just recalled the one thing I didn't try which was establishing an application-specific password for the phone:

I had an imap account in my iPad and my iPhone 4. They worked just fine till about Christmas. They act like they are checking the mail and it shows there is mail to come in, but it just goes back to saying checking mail. Can't send mail either.

Update to above question:
Hello All,
To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
So this fix worked for me.
After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.

No Mail. I can not get or send mail from my iPhone,iCloud, or mail on the desktop. Password is correct i can get into iCloud but not able to get mail.

I can not get or send mail from my iPhone, iCloud, and desktop mail. All are the same account, password is right and working. When the problem first happened I updated to a new password.
The Mail and the phone are telling me ( "The iCloud IMAP server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” rejected the password for user “k****n******2”}
From the iCloud account i get a message saying mail could not be loaded and the details. Which i have copyed below.
Any thoughts or anyone I can ring ? This was a paid for mobile me account.
Thanks

Spent at least 40 min talking to apple support, to sort it out. luckly not at my cost. After trying lots of things and speaking to a higher grade support person I was given a temp password which did the trick. I then was able to reset that with my own password.
The impression i got was no one knowns what the problem is and resetting the password at the apple end works. Not sure if you would be able to self fix.

I am not receiving the verification mail, what to do?

Thanks for your help

If you're not receiving the email to your rescue email address (and you've checked the spam folder on the account as well as the inbox and tried clicking the reset link again), then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

Hi Jose,
After checking your account, I see that you purchased an ExportPDF subscription back in June (under the same email address that you use here in the forums). There are no other subscriptions under that email address.
But, you should be able to log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com using this email address and your password. If not, please let us know.

Not receiving certain e-mails but can receive these e-mails on PC with Windows Mail

Not receiving certain e-mails on iPad but can receive these e-mails on a P C with Windows Mail

Right-Click (or Ctrl-Click) on any mailbox and choose Get Info (you can also invoke this window by typing Command-I). Now, in the Account menu, choose the account that isn't working properly. Does Mail display all your messages there, even those that it fails to download?
If the answer is yes, don't close the Get Info window yet. I'm going to propose a solution that will cause all your mail still on the server to be re-downloaded again as if it was all new, no matter how old it is or whether Mail had already downloaded it. Hence, before proceeding, you may want to delete any messages still on the server that you don't want to be downloaded again. You can accomplish this in the Get Info window by selecting the messages you want to permanently delete from the server and clicking the Remove From Server button at the bottom right of the Get Info window.
Now, follow these steps:
1. Quit Mail.
2. In the Finder, open the HOME/Library/Mail/POP-<account-name>/ folder.
3. Move any files in that folder whose name starts with MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded to the Trash.
These files keep track of which messages have already been downloaded, so that Mail does not download them again every time it connects to the server. Moving them out of the account folder causes Mail to forget that information and start downloading from scratch all over again.
For some reason, the information in these files can become inaccurate at some point for people with Comcast accounts. I'm not sure it is a file corruption problem. When these files are the problem, Comcast seems to always be involved. I wonder why your wife has not experienced the same problem, though. Maybe she just hasn't yet or maybe Eudora keeps track of downloaded messages using a different technique...

Why do I not receive iCloud e-mails when there is a specific group of "To:" addresses in the body of an e-mail

I noticed this when I started my iCloud e-mail account a few months ago. I am not receiving iCloud e-mails when there is a specific group of "To:" addresses in the body of an e-mail. I can receive the e-mail on my outlook & local cable providor e-mail accounts with all of the addresses listed. If I strip out the "To:" addresses and send it from my local cable providor e-mail account to my iCloud e-mail account than I will receive the e-mail in my iCloud account (minus all of the "To:" addresses that are in the body of the e-mail. This has caused me to miss a lot of e-mails.
Following is one of the e-mail that I can send from my cable providor account and not receive it in iCloud. If I strip out all of the "To:" addresses I will receive it in iCloud. I have a case open with Apple but it is not going anywhere. This occurs from multiple sending internet service providors (ISP's) so I think it's an Apple iCloud e-mail processing issue.

I've been having a very similar problem to what ziemsen describes, for about a week now. The Mail app has stopped delivering new messages to the Inbox, even though I can view the newly incoming messages on the server via Webmail. I am able to send email through Mail with this email account, and as for the other email accounts that I have on Mail (which are also hosted by the same server), I am able to both receive and send email with no problem.
None of the mail settings have been changed, so how this happened all of a sudden is very puzzling. I have checked Account Info on the problem account - Mail recognizes that there are messages that are on the server yet to be downloaded, but it won't download them.
I've checked what other users have suggested here in the Discussions Forum, and tried: 1) deleting the problem Mail account from Mail and re-adding it; 2) creating a new machine User account and setting up Mail with that User; 3) setting up Mail on another machine; 4) archiving and re-installing OS, and even 5) wiping the HD entirely and reinstalling the OS. None of these have worked.
Ernie, your suggestion of deleting the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded file sounded like the solution to the problem, so I just tried it - but to no avail. Mail delivers messages that are on the server to my Inbox up until the same point that it always stops at, and there are almost 1000 new messages since then.
I am pretty lost at this point - I have no idea what else I can possibly do to resolve this problem. The strange thing is, when I tested my email accounts on Microsoft Entourage and Mozilla Thunderbird, they don't have this problem - both deliver all of my incoming mail. I may have no choice but to switch to one or the other at this point, but I'm attached to Mail and would really like to continue using it if I can. Any advice would be much much appreciated.
very best,

Safari not responding on ipad 2. Checked wi-fi, it's working. Ipad not receiving or sending mail, either.
