Since I switched to iOS7, I continually get the message: Cannot get mail The connection to the server failed. I have rebooted the phone and reinstalled iCloud to no avail. What is going on?
This problem occurs with both my 5S phone and iPad 3.
last sentence should read other email accounts are working fine.

I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. How can I fix this error so I can send emails.
The issue definitely sounds like your Outgoing/SMTP settings need to be changed. Simply set them to the proper settings for your provider as was suggested above.
I found this link for Knology: http://support.knology.net/content/email.setup.cfm
The SMTP settings can be edited on the iPad/iPhone by going to Settings--> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, edit the account having trouble, click the Account, then at the bottom is the SMTP server info, click on it to edit it further.
It should allow you to edit the primary smtp server and let you enter all the good stuff as you see in the Knology link above.
Some providers require you to register your account on their service like AT&T. -
Hi
Overnight both my hotmail accounts on my Iphone 4s, through Mail, have stopped working and I cannot access my email. Every time I try I get the message "Cannot get Mail. Connection to the Server Failed"
I have rebooted my phone, deleted and readded the accoutns and even reset my network settings to factory seeting but nothing works. A few hours ago it randomly started working again but has since stopped.
Please Help!!!Contact Microsoft to see if Hotmail is having any issues.
The issue described is not an iPhone or iOS issue. -
Help - Mail is not sending or receiving any e-mails . Connectivity Doctor is showing green lights.Have rebooted but same issue - just a circle continually going around the Sent mailbox and 2 e-mails waiting in Outbox.

I have successfully installed the CS6 master collection and all the programs seem to be working apart from InDesign. When opening it I get the message "Cannot load Assignment UI.InDesign because it requires Username. Please install the Username plugin and restart InDesign.". I have no idea what to do next?
Many people use a font manager to organize a large collection of fonts, and sometimes these cause problems in ID. You might not realize that the font manager has installed a plugin in ID, but I think you would know if you added any other program extensions to help you work.
Can you show us a new crash report since the 8.0.2 update?
What happens if you start the Mac with the Shift key held down to prevent extensions from loading? What happens if you go to the System settings and create a new user, then restart the Mac and log in with the new user? -
iPhone 5s doesn't ring and goes directly to voice mail. Do not disturb is disabled. Have reset network settings and did a hard reset. What am I missing?
Call your phone carrier - that's a problem for them to resolve.

I am getting the following error message when I try to import photos into iPhoto from my camera: "/private/var/folders/GB/GBl4wh8-ELqUVMI5dO-ryU TI/-Tmp-/iPhoto/DSCF2033.JPG". Have already tried removing and reinstalling iPhoto to no avail.
Does this happen if you try to Import to Library within iPhoto, or is it when you connect your camera (and which is set to automatically use iPhoto) that this error message occurs?
If you open Image Capture > Preferences is iPhoto selected as the choice when a camera is connected? -
I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI. I have also been receiving 'Cannot send mail, an error occurred while delivering this message.
Hmm, that's odd JeanEB. The error message referts to the connection to your email server not to cellular data or connection to wi-fi. Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Select your account and type in your password again. If this doesn't resolve it, delete/re-add the email account.

HI, I just bought an iPhone 4S. Although my iPad and other iPhone 3GS connect to our server (SBS2003) I cannot get through. It checks all items in the connection and then I get the message :Cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed." I Tried everything, rebooting, reset all iPhone, etc. All Apple devices work perfectly expect mine. Please advise
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

why am i getting the message cannot get mail or that i am not connected to the internet what settings do i need to be on
WIFi needs to enabled and you need to be connected to a network. Alternatively, you need Cellular Data to be "on". (Settings>General>Network). But it propably is a problem with your router (at least, it often is with me), provided you are using your private router. Try schutting it off and turning it on again. This usually sorts problems like this out.

Why do I get the message "cannot get mail" when trying to connect to ms exchange server?
Hard to say. Has it ever worked? Maybe your account has mobile e-mail disabled. Maybe ActiveSync isn't set up properly on the server. maybe the correct ports are not open on the corporate firewall.
You will have to talk to your IT department.
