TS3899 Unable to re-add email account after updating to IOS 6

Hi,
I have tried to search to see where this has been covered previously and have followed many of the helpful suggestions.
I have updated to IOS 6. On IPhone 4.
I was unable to send email. I have followed all tips such as switching phone off.
I have deleted email account as it kept saying "null accout is already configured..".
Now I can't add my email account again.
I have been on email providers website and can get web mail fine.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.

precisely the same issue on 2 computers on 10.9 and 10.10
- the accounts are google apps for business accounts
- imap is on
- 2 step verification is off
- upgrading the 10.9 machines resulted in the same issue/error
- running onyx and cleaning out everything did nothing
- trashing mail prefs nothing
- creating new user account on the macs...same issue
- i can setup the accounts on my own 10.10 machine (ios also works for those 2 accounts)
completely dead in the water....my next step to try is to clean install the 2 effected machine....

  • Problems with email accounts after updating to iOS 7

    I'm using iPhone 4s and after updating to iOS 7, i only have "All inboxes" and no accounts. This is a big problem since it mixes All my office and private emails. Can anyone help??

    Hi Stine-ac,
    worth a try: open Mail app, hit the edit button in the upper right corner and check the mailboxes to be shown. May be there are mailboxes unchecked.

  • I can't switch between email accounts after updating to ios 7.0.2

    I just updated my iPhone and now I'm running into an issue.  I've looked online for others with the same issue but no luck so far.
    I have an Exchange-based email account for work, plus 3 other personal accounts.  2 are Yahoo Mail accounts, 1 is a Gmail account.  I just updated to ios 7.0.2 through iTunes, and now all I can see is the Exchange email account.  The others show up in the settings screen, but I cannot find any way to switch to them. I have tried readding those email accounts and I still can't see them. 
    Has anyone else run into this issue and found an answer?

    these two images may help clarify the issue..

    This image shows email accounts visible in the mailbox (Live account is visible, however this one usually disappears too)

  • IMessages sending from email address after updating to iOS 8

    Sorry if this has already been answered im struggling to find it..
    so I updated to iOS 8 today.. And now my imessages are appearing to the other person as an email address. I went onto my message settings and at the bit where I can be reached my number and email are there.. even though my numbers greyed out its still got a tick next to its name.. And at start new conversations it's only my number.. I tried to untick my email but when I done this it I couldn't send iMessages. Any help appreciated. Thanks

    Hi Aimstaa,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there is an issue with the way Messages, which are sent from your iPhone, are displayed on another device. It also sounds like your iPhone is configured correctly, so the other device will most likely need to update your contact information or try the troubleshooting suggestions in the article below.

    I hope this helps.

  • Unable to sync between iPhone & iPad after updating to iOS 6.

    Hi anyone with similar problems?
    Help needed...
    Thank you in advance.

    You need to enable iCloud syncing on each device for automatic syncing. On the iPad, go to Settings & scroll way down to Numbers & turn iCloud on.

  • Unable to add email accounts to Z10

    Got new Z10 to day, upgraded from Torch, and have spent 4.5 hours on the phone with mobile provider techie (O2) and web host IT person going around in circles. I am now at my wits' end! I have just googled 'Unable to set up email accounts on BB Z10' and see that numerous people are having this issue.
    Can we get help from BB techies on here??
    I am trying to set up two (private ) email accounts on the Z10 and what seems to be happening is that the phone cannot communicate with my web host provider's server. I managed to set up a TalkTalk account no problem (different ports) but it won't work with the private email accounts.
    Judging from the various posts I've read, this seems to be a BB issue. I desperately need to resolve this as I am running my own business.
    HELP!

    Hello:
    I just had the same issue, and called my carrier (Telus) and was able to get support to fix it.  It turns out that the Z10, being in a 4GL network, when setting up a new POP account, it requires the use of the SMTP server of the carrier, as opposed to the SMTP server of the e-mail service.  As soon as I changed the SMTP server to SMTP.telus.net it started working.
    With my old Blackberry Bold, being on a 3GL network, this was not an issue, and I used to be able to use the SMTP server of my e-mail service.
    I hope it helps,

  • Unable to delete my Email Account.

    Hi All-
    My office just transferred servers, and I have been trying to delete, or change my email account to update to my PRE.  Everytime I try to delete the account and add it as new (from POP to Exchange) I get the dreaded hanging circle for hours. 
    Moreover, when I tried to outsmart the system and alter my settings, it will not allow me to do so, and so I am stuck! Unable to transfer, as I get a "duplicate  account" message, and cannot complete my mission.
    I have reset, and shutdown countless times already. 
    Can anyone help me please?!?!!

  • My iphone 6 plus after updating to IOS 8.2 the touch id doesn't work neither in home unlock nor in app store and when i'm trying to add a new fingerprint it says ''failed unable to complete touch id setup.Please go back and try again'' .

    my iphone 6 plus after updating to IOS 8.2 seems to have a problem with the touch id witch doesn't work neither in home unlock nor in app store and when i'm trying to add a new fingerprint it says ''failed unable to complete touch id setup.Please go back and try again'' . I have multiple fingerprints and none of them appear to work.

    Hi Giannis,
    If you are having an issue with Touch ID not functioning as expected, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    Start with the section titled Clean the Touch ID sensor and then Get help with Touch ID.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How to add email accounts on Ipad 2

    I can't add email accounts on my Ipad 2. When I select Settings, Email-Contacts-calendar  the Ipad returns to the begin screen. I don not get any possibility to select an email provider or add an account. Just the begin screen.
    Thanks, Ferdy

    iphone does support hotmail, but Windows Mail (Windows Vista) does not support Hotmail. you also need to have a subscription to hotmail (aka windows live)....they no longer allow IMAP/POP access w/ free accounts. i purchased the Hotmail Plus subscription for 19.95 yearly ($1.66/month) - this is the cheapest one.
    here are the Hotmail settings for iphone:
    Select OTHER for mail account:
    name: xxxx
    address: full e-mail address
    description:xxxx
    save
    choose POP
    incoming mail server:
    host name: pop3.live.com
    user name: full e-mail address
    pw: xxxx
    outgoing mail server:
    host name: smtp.live.com
    user name: xxxx
    pw: xxxx
    GOOD LUCK!!!!!

    What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
    Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. For complete instructions, read how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.

  • After updating to iOS 5 email accounts will receive but not send

    After updating to iOS 5, email accounts will receive but will not send.  Have made sure my SMTP is correct and are turned on.  Any suggestions?

    Actually, I resolved this by going to the list of servers and selected the same server from the 'Other SMTP Server' category (which happened to be the same server as the primary server) and can now email.

  • What happens to my .me email account after June 30?

    What happens to my .me email account after June 30?
    When I signed up for iCloud, I was told I could keep my .me email address, but now I'm not so sure. What do I need to know?
    Also, does iCloud have anything like iDisk for sharing large files, or should I be using something like DropBox?
    Thanks.

    Nobody who had an @me.com email address has lost it, as long as they followed Apple's repeated advice to migrate to iCloud before June 30th last year (2012).
    If you failed to do as Apple said, then your old MobileMe account will have been deleted along with its contents. Apple were telling customers for over a year what to do and by when.
    You were warned repeatedly that MobileMe was ending and that you needed to migrate to iCloud 18 months ago to retain your @me.com address.
    Why are you commenting on this so long after the cut off date?
