  • I cant add my gmail account to my ipod touch. It says wrong username or password is incorrect. Or it will say imap.gmail not available.It worked fine until yesterday.

    So i cant add my email to my ipod touch. It gives me a message that my username or password for imap.gmail.com is incorrect. I've reset it and still no luck.

    Can you log into your Google mail account on a computer? Try that to be sure your email settings are correct.
    Also, try this link: https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha
    Google does inexplicable things from time to time. This may be one of them.

  • My ipod touch has 1.1 gb left of space on it. when i try to install an app thats 314 mb it gets three quarters of the way through and says my ipod has no space left. when i go to the storage it also says it has no space left. whats going on?

    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.

  • Why does iOS 5.0.1 always say, my iCloud Password is incorrect, when i try to use my iCloud email account?

    Why does iOS 5.0.1 always say, my iCloud Password is incorrect, when i try to use my iCloud email account?

  • HT3228 Cannot get mail username or password is incorrect but both are correct

    My bellsouth.net email was hacked. I was unable to access it on my iphone. "Cannot get mail the username or password is incorrect". I called bellsouth and had my password changed. The email account works on att website and windows live mail. Even after changing the password in settings on the iphone, I still get the same error message.

    Hello Cruise2013,
    Being able to to send and receive email is definitely an important feature of the iPhone.  Here are some steps that may help:
    If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
    Restart the iOS device.
    Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
    Try an alternative Internet connection.
    If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
    If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi:  Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
    If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
    Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
    Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
    If you're still unable to send or receive email, contact your email provider and verify the account settings are correct. You will need to gather this information (PDF).
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Unable to send or receive email
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899
    The article ends with gaining information from your Email Provider.  I understand you are entering your correct username and password into the iPhone settings, but they may have adjusted some of the other settings. 
    I hope this helps get you back on track!
    Best,

  • Cannot get mail-the gmail username or password is incorrect

    What does it mean when my iPad cannot get mail?

    It means that there is an error in your server settings, specifically the username or password is incorrect.
    Preferences > Accounts > Google Account Settings > Re-enter proper account name and password. 
    Are you using two-step verification for gmail? If so, see this thread:

  • I cannot receive mail and I get a message saying cannot get mail,username or password is incorrect.

    I cannot receive and send mail. A message appears with username or password incorrect. I have checked these and they are correct.

    Delete the account, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe! And then renter the username etc.

  • Just downloaded Kapersky internet suite 2015 and now when I try to access Gmail a screen pops up that says Firefox has blocked site since this is an "untrusted"

    Since downloading Kapersky Internet Suite 2015 when I use Firefox a screen pops up that says:
    This Connection is Untrusted
    You have asked Firefox to connect securely to mail.google.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
    Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
    What Should I Do?
    If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
    How can I access gmail? ( this also pertains to other Google sites)

    hello cornea1, try to disable "encrypted connection scanning" within kaspersky's settings > additional > network.

    I have a new iphone 5S (I have and used iPhones for years) and am having trouble with my email. I am told that my passwords for several accounts are incorrect. I have checked the passwords and written them in to the mail accounts. I see the check marks appear telling me thst they have been verified, then a few monents later I get the passwork error mnessage again about passwords.
    What is going on and how do I rectify it?
    Ray

    I'm having exactly the same problem. Email accounts have worked on all previous iPhones. Just recently I'm getting error messages telling me the passwords are incorrect and would I like to re-enter them. I re-enter them and as always get all green checkmarks as if everything is fine. Next day, same error.
    Anyone have an explanation?

  • TS1559 Having problems logging into my email despite my wifi is working. Only able to access my mail from my desktop and not from my iPad, iPod. Error message is my username or password is incorrect. Need assistance to resolve this problem

    Cannot get my emails despite logging in with my correct username and password

    Hello, Valeriemitchell. 
    Thank you for the question.  Since you are able to access your email account on other device, this issue could be related to a security feature offered by your email host.  Without knowing which email host you use, I will include the best resources that I can.  Below, I have included two e-mail troubleshooting articles.  The first article covers basic email troubleshooting.  The second article will assist you if the email account you are experiencing issues with is a Gmail account.

  • TS2972 I keep getting "turn on home sharing in iTunes" when I try to access my library. If I got the pc and disable / enable it works for a while. It promptly returns.

    I only noticed this issue when I added a second apple tv to my network last night.
    I keep getting the error message "turn on home sharing in iTunes". This is already enabled however i have to keep disabling this and then re-enabling it to get it to work.  This solution is short lived as this error returns randomly within an hour.
    I believe apple have introduced a bug with the last iTunes release.
    It's very annoying....I would love to  know who tested this rubbish at apple !!

  • I can open AOL in Firefox and I can use anything on the site, but when I try to open my email it redirects and won't open mail anymore.

    I have checked my cookies and settings and all are correct. I have run two different virus checks in case it was a virus causing the problem. Nothing has worked. I can open the email in IE, Safari, and Chrome. What can I try next?

    Actually I just found this thread: [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=1344275]
    Is that the problem you are having?
    Please try try the solution suggested by DanRaisch.
    Please note that for Firefox 12 the procedure would be as follows:
    Firefox Button > Options > Privacy Tab >
    # Then 'Clear Your Recent History' Select 'Cache' and clear.
    # Then 'remove individual cookies' search for aol ones and remove.
