Since Update - Mail won't connect to server 50% of the time?
There have been a few minor glitches since I downloaded the recent update (screen freezes for 2-3 seconds, buttons are non-responsive or overly sensitive), but the most frustrating problem that SEEMS to relate is:
About half of the time, when I try to manually update my Mail, I get the message: "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server "imap.aol.com" failed" (yeh, I use AOL...) I haven't seen this message since the first few days after I purchased the iPhone. Now I see it all the time. This happens when I am at home, where I have NO cell phone signal, but do have WiFi (and iPhone Mail loaded at home no problem until this week). Anyone experiencing this or can offer explaination/assistance?
I have tried powering down (several times on each 'try') and that has no effect.
Same with me, but now (only since the 1.1.1 update) it happens regardless of whether EDGE is working/available. I keep trying different ways to fix i, but *I KEEP GETTING THE SAME MESSAGE* - _'unable to connect...'_ I turn off and turn back on the specific Network for WiFi and mess around with what I believe will be the

My nokia e mail won't connect to server
My nokia e mail won't connect to server please help i've tried everything i know
Thanks for your response.
I did that already. I did the full maintenance treatment: Disk Warrior, followed by Applejack AUTO (which does a permissions repair and caches clean), followed by three PRAM zaps.
In accordance with Murphy's Law, it started working again about the time your post came in, but it had been hours of it not working after running the aforementioned gauntlet.
I have my doubts whether it will keep working. Meantime, Mail is humming along on my MBP. If you have any other ideas, I'd love to see them!
Cheers,

IPhone 4s: Won't Connect To iTunes 50% Of The Time
Ok, I'm having a problem similar to ones I've been reading about, but after browsing the forum for several hours, I haven't found one that is exactly the same.
When opening the app store from my new 4s, I can connect to the iTunes store exactly 50% of the times I try. It's literally an every-other-time-it-won't-connect situation. And it happens on both wifi AND 3G (verizon), in any location, and will happen whether or not I am actually logged into my itunes account.
I've tried all of the following:
- Turning on celluar data
- Resetting network settings
- Logging in and out of account
- Resetting clock (I found something online that said this might work)
What I've found is that if I open the app store, it connects. Then, if I minimize and try to come back, it tells me it can't connect. But if I minimize and then kill the app and then open it again, it connects just fine.
This is really more of an annoyance than anything - since so far I've been able to connect just fine by entering the app store twice, but I'd really like to fix this considering I've had the phone for less than a week. It's my first Apple product, and all I've ever heard about was how good they are at avoiding this type of thing....
Any help would be appreciated. I've reached out to Apple for support but I fear their response is going to be generic and unhelpful.Same with me, but now (only since the 1.1.1 update) it happens regardless of whether EDGE is working/available.

Since update, computer won't connect to iPhone personal hotspot through USB cable
Since a recent software update from Apple, my MacBook Pro will not connect to my iPhone 4 personal hotspot through the USB cable. I can still connect using wi-fi. But often, I'd rather connect through the cable.
hello,
i have the same problem on two different iphones 5, with two different mac book pro; the message si "either the cable for iphone is not plugged in or the device is not responding"
any solution ? -
macbook pro works fine except when i try to get my e-mails it say server error, what is wrong
You need to provide more info please. What's the exact error? What email client? Who's the email account through? When the last time your email worked without issue? Do you remember something changing right before it stopped working?

TS3276 the connec doctor sr but mac mail won't connect?
How do you connect to gmail in mac mail when the connection doctor says the connection was successful to the server but mac mail won't connect even after re-inputting the password?
mac mail won't connect to the Comcast POP or smpt servers
So your saying that you have comcast at home and it works fine from this machine?
If you mail works fine at home, then if it doesn't work on the road, it most likely isn't your machine. It is some other problem:
-- with the other network
-- perhaps comcast is preventing foreign mail from working.

Apple Mail won't connect to GoDaddy pop server
Hi all,
I have entered all the correct server information to connect to GoDaddy's pop server but Mail won't connect. I can connect to the smtp server without a problem. The same settings work perfectly in Entourage, so my information is correct. Has anyone else experienced this issue and fixed it?
Here are the settings:
POP: pop.secureserver.net
AUTHENTICATION: password
Thanks,
JohnMine stopped wotking on the 9th, under the mail app on the left hand side, if you have triangles with ! marks in them, perform a left click and start "Mail Connection Doctor" This may help pinpoing the issue.
Mine is failing at trying to connect on port 143.
This worked for me, go the accounts settings window and in each gmail account enter the following info
Advanced Tab
IMAP Path Prefix enter [Gmail]
If you then tick "Use SSL" this should make the port 993
Authentication shold be set to "password"
Then save these settings, finally email is received, hope this helps.
Let is know how you get on. -
My iCloud email on iPad keeps saying it won't connect to server.
My iCloud email on iPad keeps saying it won't connect to server. Tried removing and adding iCloud back on device already. Says last update was Thursday (3 days ago). I don't use this email much but got a few emails and attachments I need for work from that address. I logged in online from another computer and it worked. Any ideas how to fix this now? I do get email from other accounts and do have internet connection.

Recently 'repaired permissions'. When opening Mail, 'keychain' now asks for password. This can tend to get annoying so I set (within iTools I believe) the preference to not ask for password everytime I connect to mail. Now 'Mail' won't connect at all. Okay if I go to .Mac. Just won't connect from my comp.
Trying to get things back they way they were. Excuse my ingnorance on what should be a relatively simple app.Any error message provided and if so, what?
It isn't Mail but the account or accounts not connecting to the incoming mail server. How many accounts are you accessing with the Mail.app and the type - .Mac, IMAP or POP? -
AOL Mail Can not connect to server
I am having problems with the email client on the playbook. I have both AOL and Yahoo email accounts. Both accounts downloaded properly since the 2.0 upgrade, but recently, another update was downloaded and now my AOL account keeps popping up "unable to connect to server" but yet the email is there. However, every now and then, when you try to "read" it, it just keeps downloading. Any one else have this problem and know of a fix?
I would delete the all account and reconfigure it. It should be am IMAP Account.

I think you have to turn off Private Browsing.
Tap "Private" on Safari Screen to disable Private Browsing. When top of screen is white, Private Browsing is off.
