SMTP server error message

My scan to email feature has suddenly quit working.  When I try to scan a document, the scan feature trys to connect to smtp.aol.com, as it always has.  After approximately 5 seconds, I receive the following error message:  "Cannot resolve the SMTP server".  I tried correcting by following an earlier post dated 3-1-2014, by accessing the printer's Embedded Web Server and performing the below tasks:
Click the Network tab, then click on IP4 config on the left side.   
Click on Network Address (IP)
Select Manual.
Type in the printer's information and IP address.
Set the DNS Address Configuration as Manual.
This did not work for me.  As stated before, this feature has worked flawlessly for the past year.  Not sure what happened.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Brian

Hi brianw8602,
I believe this should be most of the settings you need.
AOL Mail SMTP server address: smtp.aol.com
AOL Mail SMTP user name: Your AOL Mail screen name (what comes before "@aol.com" in your AOL Mail address; if your address is [email protected], for example, the corresponding screen name is "me")
AOL Mail SMTP password: Your AOL Mail password
AOL Mail SMTP port: 587 (alternative: 465)
AOL Mail SMTP TLS/SSL required: yes
Delete the Scan to Email settings and run the Setup Wizard again.
You might need to contact AOL to lower the security settings, since it was working and now it isn't.
Hope this helps.
Thank You.

  • An error occured while sending mail: SMTP server error.  The server responded: (null)

    I'm getting this set of error messages intermittantly:

    This problem may occur at low-use times when Messaging is installed with the
    Trend virus protection software on the same system.
    <P>
    Change the version of the Trend software from 3.0 to the older 2.62 version.

    It's possible that your provider has made a change.
    I think STARTTLS usually is used with port 587, instead of the standard SSL port 465.
    Could you look up your provider's current SMTP settings to see whether your "Outgoing Server" settings need to be updated? If it's difficult to translate between your provider's help page and Thunderbird's dialog controls, you could provide a link to your provider's help page.

  • I have a problem syncing iCal on my Macbook air (10.7.5) and my iPhone 4s (5.1.1) over iCloud. The following server error message comes up "The request (CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation) for account "iCloud" failed." Been to Apple - no luck. Ideas?

    I have a problem syncing iCal on my Macbook air (10.7.5) and my iPhone 4s (5.1.1) over iCloud. The following server error message comes up "The request (CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation) for account “iCloud” failed." Been to Apple Store - no luck instore, or with Super genius over the phone when with genius in store, taking data in real time via ethernet!
    I had to do a full wipe of my system because of time machine back up issues 2 weeks ago, and the error has only occured at some point since then. I only did a drag and drop of my user account folders/files into an External HDD rather than a copy of my user account (advised by the staff in store at Apple to do this) and when reimported, the Mail folders are all present but each message is in a sub-sub-sub folder that is numerically named. I do not have a mirror image of the hard disk prior to the wipe, only a time machine back up from 2 weeks prior to it being done. I am uncertain if this reinstall has caused the issue. 
    I am not happy to upgrade the software in my iPhone until I have the calendars working. I have purchased Mountain Lion, but again am concerned about upgrading until the issues are sorted.
    I have tried the other solutions on here with no luck. HELP please.
    Many Thanks.

    Progress Update.
    I made a back of what existing phtos and Videos I had on my Iplhone.  I used Image capture to do this making an entire back up of photos and videoa that were still intact on the phone.
    Image capture is god for this purpose, as it does exactly what you ask it to do without applying any rules or squishing the files back into iphote (which might also be corupted) 
    Image capture wil do the basic function of retriving the contents of the phone and save them as native files on your hard drive.
    Once I did this I erased my iphone, and re intitialised it restoring an older back up from icloud.
    As the retore was happneing - I did retreive the missing files that cuased the intial beviour as above, and I could play the videos that were missing in the above scenerio.  The wierd ting was however that even though the source files were now back on the device, the thumbnail previews were missing. Where I ahd balck thumb nails for server portions of the resotred content.
    I then went to bed as the restore is a long process.  When I woke up the library had library had cleaned itself up.  Mysteriously the prcess had deleted the files missing the their thumbnails.
    This is very perculiar and bad behavior.
    I am now repeating the process, and will attempt to download the missing content as it is restored and prior to the phone trying to fix itself.
    Here are the lessons learned.
    DO NOT rely on Photo Stream to keep back ups and synchornise videos from you IOS device. IT DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS CAPBILITY
    DO NOT rely on iCloud Back Up alone - always fd an occassional iTunes back up or more reliably still always take a back up of photos and video files using Image Capture to be doubly sure that you a have backd up any content.
    DO THIS NOW - dont wait to loose your phone ofr have your phone repaired by replacement at the apple Store.  (I did both :-(

    I keep receiving a server error message with the new beta version of iMessage.  What can I do to fix this?

    Ok I have a question.
    Why do you want to use Beta software? Especially since you are having this problem with it?
    Uninstall it and forget about it until it is released as a real piece of software.

  • Can't even get a server error message, much less upgrade to iOS5?

    About a week after iOS 5 was released in mind-October, my inability to get the upgrade onto my 3GS led me to messaages like "It's a rolling upgrade; Apple's servers are catching up. Try again later." Every time I plugged my iPhone into my PC, iTunes launched, synched and brought up the Store. Nothing on the screen said anything about downloading iOS 5. More Googling yielded messages from people who followed the same procedure, but evidently found a download link or something like that, because they had launched the upgrade procedure but then gotten a server error message. Meanwhile I was still getting nothing. I tried re-installing iTunes. Rebooting my PC. Yet, here it is November and each time I plug my iPhone into the PC, it's the same dead end. iTunes launches, synchs with the phone, and then shows me all the latest groovy hits I can download. Absolutely nothing about the iOS 5 upgrade steps, contrary to Apple's messages saying "Just plug in your iPhone and iTunes will do the rest."  Maybe there's a secret password?

    I'll answer my own question for the benefit of anyone with similar symptoms who searches the forum. Today just for grins, instead of letting the step of plugging the iPhone 3GS into the PC launch iTunes, I launched iTunes first then plugged in the phone. THAT succeeded in bringing up a dialog box that got me started on the road to the iOS 5 upgrade. One more thing: One of the steps that no one mentions is that once your iPhone is plugged into the PC and shows up in iTunes, click once on the topmost list of items representing your iPhone. That will take you to your iPhone "home page." There's an update button in the center of the home page screen that you'll use. It's pretty quick; only took about 30 minutes on my basic DSL connection. Have fun!

  • Server error message 504

    Why does my iCal icon keep jumping w/the error message Request for account "Yahoo" failed then server error message 504 and 502.  It happens about every 2 minutes! Help

    Greetings,
    This error suggest you have Yahoo Calendars added to your iCal and iCal is losing connection with the Yahoo servers.
    Things to try:
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts -- Normally there is nothing here.  If you have anything in this window (specifically anything that says "Yahoo"), click on it and hit the minus sign "-" to remove it.
    --- Note: This will remove any calendars you have from the listed servers (like yahoo).  If you find that you actually need the calendars associated with the server you removed, hit the plus sign "+" to add the server back in.
    3. Quit iCal and then re-open and test.
    Hope that helps.

  • I frequently get the "Firefox can't find the server" error message.

    I frequently get the "Firefox can't find the server" error message. Refreshing the page normally causes the page to load, although sometimes it takes more than one try.
    I have checked my connection settings. IPv6 and DNS prefetching are disabled, as recommended by this article: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20load%20websites%20but%20other%20programs%20can?s=Firefox+can%27t+find+the+server+at&r=1&as=s

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Stan -
    Thanks again for the simple but valuable tip.
    I'm just going to repeat the relevant sections from my previous post with the screenshots this time:
    Below you'll see a snip of how my current folder structure appears. It's identical to yours, except there are no button files in the General Folder. Since you were kind enough to include a file name, I did a search on that specific one and it's nowhere to be found on my hard drive. Hmmm....
    I've seen others remark on how... "challenging".... Adobe's instructions can be sometime. I'll admit to having the same feeling when I was trying to download and install all the content files and the 7-zip stuff. Is the answer somehow that I screwed up that?  Note the 7-zip folder right above the Adobe folder. Here's a screen shot of that expanded folder contents:
    Does that look like you think it should? Have I not installed or extracted something correctly?
    Finally, the only other thing I can think of to give you as much info as you might need is to include a screenshot of where the "Functional Content" stuff got saved. Adobe's instructions about this (if I recall correctly) were that it did NOT have to be installed anywhere specific, but you then had to go into Encore (& Premiere) and through preferences point to this stuff, which I believe I did. But I don't see any button type files in these anyway.
    Other thoughts or advice?
    Thanks!
