Trouble reaching Email Servers

I recently purchased an AirPort Extreme card for my iMac because I'm changing Internet service from Cable to Verizon FIOS and I need a wireless connection (because of the my computer's location). Anyway, I installed it and it worked just fine for two days. However, last night I couldn't reach my Email accounts at either of my providers (Comcast cable or Hughes satellite). My wife's laptop was working fine. I rebooted the iMac and checked for software updates. That's the thing, I was connected to the Internet--I just couldn't get mail from either mail server. Finally, I reconnected the RJ45 cable to my router and all of my mail came in. I later disconnected the RJ45 cable and the wireless connection worked again (for now). Anyone experience this before? Seems impossible to me. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem if it reoccurs? Someone at work thought maybe I was too close to the router (12 inches while I wait for Verizon to come Friday). I guess he thinks my signal was too strong. That idea makes less sense than the problem--I didn't want to hurt his feelings.

Hi,
I was beginning to think I was the only person in the world that experienced this problem. The problem has not reoccurred. On Friday, I switched to the Verizon Fiber network and I no longer have the option of connecting copper to the router and the cable modem (unless I get a 50-60 foot Cat5 cable). Anyway, if it happens again, I'll post the symptoms to this thread.
Good luck!
Cheers,
Ren

Trouble with connecting to my email servers

Hi,
I just bought my Macbook in March and it's great
But, all of the sudden, my Mail program has been acting up. It won't connect to my email servers on the first try. After about 5 or 6 tries, it will connect.
I get the triangle with the exclamation mark symbol, and when I click that, I get this message:
It isn't my email server, I don't think, because it checks perfectly fine in Outlook on my Windows PC.
It has also worked fine until today.
Thanks in advance for any help!
13" Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.9) 2 GHZ Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, 80 GB HD

Any difference when deselecting "Use SSL" to turn it off for the incoming mail server which is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences?

Mac email servers blacklisted

I am having trouble sending email from my mac.com address to my work address. The emails were found by my IT support desk and they were rejected as having come from blacklisted servers that belong to apple. The servers involved are:
17.148.16.98
17.148.16.99
17.148.16.100
17.148.16.102
17.148.16.105
They are blacklisted at LASHBACK and SORBS-SPAM plus one or two others.
Is this something that Apple works to resolve?

So I am seeing the Blacklist problem now as well. Seems several Blacklist lists are now listing some (not all) of Apple's email servers as having issues, and as such, some people I email to are not getting my email, and it bounces.
For example:
blacklist:17.148.16.104 and blacklist:17.148.16.105
SORBS-SPAM LISTED
LASHBACK LISTED
Backscatterer.org LISTED
Yes, these do not:
17.148.16.98
17.148.16.99
17.148.16.100
17.148.16.102
Is there a way I can choose which server I use?
Seems odd that someone would list Apple email, but that is the case.
This is what backscatterer.org claims about some Apple servers:
Testresult for 17.148.16.104:
This IP IS CURRENTLY LISTED in our Database.
Please note that this listing does not mean you are a spammer, it means your mailsystem is either poorly configured or it is using abusive techniques.
This kind of abuse is known as BACKSCATTER (Misdirected Bounces or Misdirected Autoresponders or Sender Callouts). Click the links above to get clue how and why to stop that kind of abuse.
To track down what happened investigate your smtplogs near 17.12.2010 12:03 CET +/-1 minute.
I wonder if Apple even cares?

Unable to reach Adobe servers, Please check firewall settings and try again

I have been a creative cloud customer since it started and I've never experienced such buggy software as the app manager. The customer experience is just shocking and I wish Adobe would just offer direct downloads for the software we need rather than use the app manager.
I'm currently trying to install the latest versions of the programs but the app manager keeps showing "Unable to reach Adobe servers, Please check firewall settings and try again in a few minutes".
I do not have any firewalls on my network.
I've uninstalled all previous versions of the applications.
The app manager will download a few % and then the message appears again. I click retry and it downloads another few % before showing the message again. I keep doing this until the program is fully downloaded and installed which take hours. Because I am able to eventually download the app, the error should be anything to do with my setup or internet connection as I've never had this issue before when installing adobe products.
Is there a way we can bypass the app manager and install the programs directly? This is getting very annoying and I just need my apps to install without wasting days clicking the retry button.

I'm having the exact same problem. Photoshop is stuck at 0%.
Have the links for direct download changed? When I went to http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.htmland then scrolled down the page to:
Photoshop CC 2014 (64-bit)
740 MB
File 2
801 MB
File 1
and then clicked on File 1 and File 2, I reached a page that says "You don't have permission to access "http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PHSP/15/win64/Photoshop_15_LS20_win64.7z?" on this server."

When I tap the mail icon on my iPhone 4s, the menu of email servers pops up. I already have a me acct that I check all the time, no problem. So I choose iCloud, sign in and it tells me that I already have an acct-.so why can't I get to my emails then?

Unable to reach adobe servers, past 3 days Feb 20, 2015

for the past 3 days I've been getting a message when I trey to use the Adobe Application Manager after purchasing Adobe Creative Cloud service. I've tried two different computers, a Mac and a PC. Im also unable to get to the adobeid.services.adobe.com to reset my password (server not found), I have rebooted, shut down, shut down my firewall, check my hosts table for redirects. I can get to adobe.com because I'm posting here right now.
I contacted Adobe and chatted with an associate who was unhelpful, but I was told my request would be "Elevated to the relevant team", who have not made any attempt to contact me at this time.

Please refer to:
Unable to reach Adobe servers, Please check firewall settings and try again
In Creative Cloud Application "unable to reach adobe servers please check your firewall settings"
Unable to reach Adobe servers when opening Creative Cloud
They have host of information.

A fix for Mac users encountering "unable to reach Adobe servers" error

Seemingly out of nowhere - i.e., not coinciding with any Mac OS, or app updates - I started getting the "unable to reach Adobe servers" error from the Creative Cloud desktop app. Signing into the Adobe website was impossible, too. When I say impossible, I mean it literally - the login window would not display, in Safari or Chrome.
I'm sure this is posted somewhere here, but just in case, here's the solution that worked for me (posted by phatfish81 on Feb 7, 2015 4:35 PM):

Luciac15720559 have you utilized the steps listed in Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later to locate the cause of the connection error? If so do you have any questions regarding the steps listed within the document? What type of network environment is your computer located?

'Download Error' due to 'Unable to reach Adobe servers'.

Not really a Premiere Pro problem, so moving this to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.

Adobe Download Manager unable to reach Adobe servers

I am getting the "Unable to reach Adobe servers" error all the time.
I've tried
deleting the opm.db file;
deleting the PDApp log file; and
entering my adobe login details.
turning off my avast firewall (there's none on my modem)
But the error doesn't go away and I can't upgrade to LR 5, etc.
Has anyone managed to fix this error?
Thanks,
Ganga.
PS:
a) I am not happy that I have to use the forums to get support on a product that I'm payingf for.
b) Why can't Adobe offer 24/7 support? I am in Australia and should not be made to wait for US business hours.
c) I wonder if Adobe will reimburse for the days they couldn't supply the product I've subscribed to.

Yes Jihoon1109 the managed network is likely causing your network difficulties. This is especially true once the steps listed in http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html have been completed.
I would recommend contacting your I.T. department and having them review the Adobe Creative Cloud Service Access Documentation for IT section of http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html.

InDesign 2014 CC continually fails to update....Cannot reach Adobe Servers check internet connection

Hello
I am windows 7 user and have been using creative cloud to run InDesign CC 2014 without issue until the most recent update....the update fails and reports back "cannot reach adobe servers - please check firewall and internet connection". This is a little strange since all other Adobe updates (including ID CC) and creative cloud updates go through without issue.
Many Thanks.

Hi Peter
Yes - 4 or 5 times reaching only 4% before failure, it only seems to be with ID CC. The network administrator says there is no block or firewall to the adobe servers which seems logical because creative cloud itself would not update if this were the case. Could it be the ID update file itself ?
