TS3988 I cannot access my e-mail settings on my iPad

I can no longer access my e-mail settings or add additional accounts on my 3rd gen IPad. The mail works fine (send and recieve). I can see the names of all three accounts and my subscribed calendars.... but they are all subdued. tapping dragging and shaking all seem to do nothing but frustrate me more. I have tried to access them, on WIFI, on Cellular and even offline in Airplane mode without success. I have tried re-booting and connecting to iTunes and trying without any luck. I am hoping for a simple setting solution, but have had no luck with the Apple support web page. I welcome anything short of erasing my iPad.

My post led me to similar questions. The solution was found in an unrelated problem when a forum member suggested going to "General" and then "Restrictions". There I found"Accounts" and it was set to "Don't allow changes". A simple click and I was up and running. I was going to delete, but hope the post will help another.

Just tried my online banking, the page doesn't always load and it won't show my account names or passwords.
It looks like none of my log in information for any sites I use often will show in Firefox.
I can't even access my e-mail to see if I'm getting answers to this problem.

TS3899 Suddenly on both my iPhone and iPad I cannot access my AOL mail. They tell me my user name and password are incorrect. Yet, I have no problem with other devices in accessing. I have deleted and reinstalled my account information etc. Any ideas?

Suddenly on both my iPhone and iPad I cannot access my AOL mail. It tells me my user name or password are incorrect. Yet I have no trouble accessing from other devices. This occurred randomly in the middle of the night. I'd done nothing different or unusual. I've tried re-starting both devices, tried deleting and re-installing my account information. Any suggestions?

Hmm... looks like this is an issue for that email provider for some reason.
A user in a bt.com forums recommends turning off Push Emails settings.

Coudln't hurt to try it and see if the issue resolves itself.

I cannot access my e mail on I phone as it cannot connect to server. I have done the usual and turned it off etc Help?

Turning off wouldn't help because settings would remain even after you restarted. So contact your email provider and them for the correct settings.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)

backpack12,
Voicemails are a vital part of having a working phone. We do suggest that you look at the contact and then the number to make sure that it is *86. If you are needing to get your voicemails until then, please dial *86.

TS2621 Cannot access my yahoo mail in iPad. Receive it on my iPhone. Have stopped & started both. Put the fetch to "off" & manually. Not sure what else to do.

Cannot access my yahoo mail in iPad. Receive it on my iPhone. Have stopped & started both. Put the fetch to "off" & manually. Not sure what else to do.comes up with message "connection to server failed". This started when I transferred my service to a iPhone 4 to a 4s.

Reinstalling would be about the most useless thing you could do, given that the test with the other User account works -- that means the application is OK.
The next step that would be indicated would to remove the com.apple.mail.plist file from Home/Library/Preferences, after having Quit Mail. Subsequently when you relaunch Mail it will open as though New, but if you only enter the setup information for each account, and DECLINE when prompt to ask if you want to Import anything. Mail should rediscover the existing account folders, and all should be well.
As a precaution, open Home/Library and locate the Mail folder -- Duplicate the Mail folder, and drag the resulting copy to the Desktop for temporary backup.

I can't get a new password, so i cannot access my e-mail. Help.

I just signed-up for Mozilla Firefox. I have not been able to update my password, so I cannot access my e-mail. This is the most basic of problems. I cannot get into Mozilla.

You don't need a password from Mozilla to use Firefox to go to your email website. You should be able to get there just by entering the address in the address bar, or if you imported bookmarks from your other browser(s), you may have a bookmark to the site.

Cannot access the iCloud mail for some reason I don´t know. Worked perfect until Nov 28th, but a message with "incorrect ID/password" popped up. Contacts and iCal is accessible. Have tried from iPad, Mac, iPhone and PC. Any recommendations?

Reset your password. Be sure your new one meets the requirements for length (8) and characters (at least one upper case and one number).
