  • HT3228 Hi. I got an Apple iPad Air yesterday and quickly set it up. All seemed OK at first. However, I now find that I can send email messages well, but I cannot receive them. Any suggestions? Tony.

    The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • TS3276 I have my email set up, I can send, but I cannot receive mail.  What could be wrong ?

    I have my email set up, I can send, but I cannot receive mail.  What could be wrong ?

    SMTP is the protocol used to send mail, where IMAP and POP are the protocols used to receive mail.  ISPs can have different servers for these protocols. 
    In this case, the specified receiving (IMAP or POP) server, or the receiving user and password credentials, are likely incorrect.
    What does the Connection Doctor diagnostic tool report?
    Mail.app's Window menu > Connection Doctor
    To check or change the settings, select Mail.app's Mail menu > Preferences... > Accounts and select the account you need to edit in the left column.
    The receiving information will be displayed for the selected Account, with either POP or IMAP shown.  Confirm with the ISP that your POP or IMAP mail settings are correct per the ISP's recommendations, as well.   And in general, IMAP is preferable to POP, if you have the option of using either of those with your ISP.

  • TS3276 I am able to send mail but cannot receive mail. Can someone help?

    I am able to send email but cannot receive mail.  I am connected to internet.  I can go thru Safari to receive.
    Would appreciate any help.

    What does Mail/Window/Connection Doctor Show? If the server is red, select it and look at the Show Details box.

  • Can send mail but cannot receive mail?

    My machine has been operating fine and all of a sudden I cannot receive mail...?
    I've called my internet provider and they cannot figure it out.  My other Mac's are operating fine.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Popeye. You're welcome.
    Has Mail ever worked on this computer for this
    account? It could be that you haven't configured the
    account properly, i.e. haven't chosen the right
    authentication method in Preferences > Accounts >
    Advanced, or something like that.
    Hi David,
    Yes, my MacMail used to work. At that time, I was on a local ISP, on a dial-up connection. Now I have HughesNet satellite connectivity. Maybe you can verify that my settings are right.
    In the Accounts window, all three first boxes are checked (enable this account, include when checking for new mail, remove copy when retrieving from server [after one week]), the next section (prompt me...) is grayed out. I'm taking from port 110, and I have MD5 challenge/response selected.
    Does this sound right?
    Thanks,
    PTP

  • Cannot receive mail can send email receiving mail on another mini pad

    I Cannot receive mail on my iPad. Password correct in setting. Receiving mail on another iPad with same password yahoo account have had no trouble till yesterday.

    A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
    https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
    On the iPhone, tap Settings.
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.
    Enter the following incoming mail server information:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail.
    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

  • I have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari. It's obviously a glitch in Apple

    I have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account or delete messages etc. For some  reason, I CAN send mail on Apple mail using this account, although it takes several minutes. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari and internet explorer on my office PC. It's obviously a glitch in Apple's Mail. I've deleted this account and reopened it in Mail on my Mac Pro with no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, this E amil account is major to my business.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3276
    sounds like a corrupt database or index
    the glitch is your home folder and mail folder, esp look at syncservices
    I'd post in the mail or Lion forum where you will find similar issues being discussed.

  • Having been without my Mac for a month I've been using iCloud mail. The new mail boxes that I set up there do not automatically show up in Mail on my replacement Mac. Is there any way to transfer them from ICloud mail to Mail?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
    Peace, Clyde

    The flaw is here:
