Since system update my emails wont connect to server- Please help

My emails have worked fince since owning this phone, but as of 5/6 days ago the emails will no longer work. s
I have looked at the settings and still says cant connect to server, so I deleted the account from the phone to then reinstall. But now it wont connect at all and I get the error message could not open conection to server. I have also tried entering manually but still have no luck. I had a system update around the same sort of time so I ma unsure if this has effected things.
I have had to open the Hotmail app from the play stor in the mean time, but would like to get the phone working as it should as this had an email time setting so I wasnt disterbed by junk mail in the evening/night.
Please can someone advise.
Thank Jenny

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
First try clearing data for the email app under Settings -> Apps -> All -> Email -> Clear data and then restart the phone. When you then open the email app it will ask for your email address and password. Enter those but select manual setup, Exchange ActiveSync and then use m.hotmail.com as server address, your email address as user name and see if that works.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPhone wont connect to iTunes, please help!

    Hi guys
    every time I connect my iPhone to the computer, iTunes doesn't seem to see it. I was getting an error about corefoundation.dll couldn't be found or something and found that another forum user said if i were to uninstall mobilemecontrolpanel then that would fix it. I didn't get the error message on start up anymore but it still wont connect. I've uninstalled iTunes as per Apple website and still nothing.
    I'm reluctant to restart my iPhone and lose everything on it
    Any suggestions?
    iPhone 3GS running OS 4.0
    iTunes 9.2.1 on windows xp
    Thank you so much

    I know you have said you have uninstalled iTunes and Mobile Me and that didnt work. There is another thread that may help you.

    It appears Mobile Me is the culprit here.

  • Client not connecting to server. please help

    I have been trying to run a sample client-server program, but it doesn't seem to reconise the host name that has been declared in the client program.
    i get the following error:
    Client Error: java.net.UnknownHostException: Paradoxical
    can anyone tell me what the host name should be to allow the client to connect to the server????
    bellow the server code:
    import java.io.*;
    import java.net.*;
    * <p>This class doesn't actually deal with the client, it simply
    * spawns ClientHandlers that cope with all the i/o.
    * @author Stephen Dolphin 01972612
    * @see ClientHandler
    public class Server {
    * Attribute holding the server's listening port number.
    private static int portNumber = 80;
    * This is this class' only method. It simply waits for requests
    * on the given port until it hears something, and then it spawns
    * a new handler.
    public static void main(String[] args)
    // the initial handler number
    int socketNumber = 1;
    try
    ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket(portNumber);
    System.out.println("Coffee Pot Server running!");
    System.out.println("Waiting for connections on " + portNumber);
    // continuous loop
    while (true)
    // wait for request...
    Socket clientSocket = server.accept();
    // when received, start new handler!
    new ClientHandler(clientSocket, socketNumber).start();
    // increment ready for next time.
    socketNumber++;
    } // while(true)
    catch (Exception e)
    // catch all errors, and, display string
    System.out.println("Server Error: " + e.toString());
    } // trycatch
    } // main(String[])
    } // Server{}

    The host name to use for the client is the name of the machine that the server is running on. From your error message, the client expects the server to run on 'Paradoxical' but it can't find a machine with that name. You might try to use 'ping Paradoxical' to verify that the machine exists.
    If your server is running on the same machine as the client, you can just use 'localhost' as the host name.

  • Cannot Connect to Server - Please Help!

    I have a MacBook w/Leopard and Parallels w/Windows XP. Everything has been working fine for over a year. After a recent trip (and using several different motel wifi connections) I cannot connect to our Windows based home server. The server is primarily used for printer sharing. I can connect and print on the Windows "side" of my Mac, but not on the Mac itself. Server connection attempts return the "Connection failed" message and print attempts return "Connection failed: NTSTATUS_BAD_NETWORKNAME", then "Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds...". I cannot understand how I can connect and print w/Windows (which is running on my Mac) but cannot connect or print with the Mac. I have restored my hard drive from Time Machine, checked the server network ID and just about everything else I can think of.
    Any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

    Still unable to print/connect from the Mac and able to print/connect from Parallels/Windows. Internet functionality is normal on both.
    Any ideas???

  • Just updated itunes now wont connect to ipad or iphone

    just updated itunes now wont connect to ipad or iphone

    Do you have a mac or PC? If a PC try going into the control panel, add/remove programs, find something named Apple device driver, apple mobile device support, something like that (the exact name has changed from version to version)
    Uninstall that then restart your comptuer
    Open iTunes and then plug in your device and see if the drivers install

  • Since last update I do not have a "delete" button showing on a toolbar. Therefore, I cannot delete emails without opening them. Please help.

    Since last update I do not have a "delete" button showing on a toolbar. Therefore, I cannot delete emails without opening them. Please help.

    Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

  • Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access?

    Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access the cloud?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
