  • Exchange Account - Unable to verify account information

    Hi There.  I was trying to setup a staff members work e-mail to a work iPhone 4.  The e-mail is an Exchange e-mail.  All the information is correct (e-mail spelling, username and password, Domain and Server, etc) but it keeps saying "Exchange Account - Unable to verify account information"  Usually I just click Ok and it still gives me the options to select what I want to sync (Mail, Calendar, etc) and it still goes through.  This time it doesn't work at all. Just saves the info I inputted and won't sync up.  Any ideas on what's going on?
    Thank you for your time and consideration!

    Did the user change their password recently?
    A user complained about not being able to log in with correct credentials (on outlook 2010) while at home. His password had expired, and when he came in this morning, he changed it. We then tried to set up his exchange account on his iPhone, which gave us the "Unable to verify account information" message. When I learned of the password change, I looked in our Active Directory and sure enough, his account had been marked as "Locked". I unlocked it, and voila! He added his account without any further problems.
    So in short, check Active Directory to see if the accounts of affected users are locked. If they are, unlock them.

  • TS1868 Phone 5 and 'Exchange Account. Unable to verify account information'.

    Our Ipad connects fine to local Exchange Server (via remote.<our web address>), but the Iphone 5 with the same settings does not.
    We get this - 'Exchange Account. Unable to verify account information'.
    Anyone any ideas please?

    I had the same problem - kept resetting my corporate systems password it would work for a few days and then the same problem as you.  the solution that worked for me today was this - in the user name on the second screen which comes when you are setting up an exchange email accounts, i put in domain\username and then it magically worked.

  • Hotmail exchange account; "unable to verify account information"

    When setting up my hotmail using Microsoft Exchange on the "mail" app I get; "unable to verify account information". 
    I've read many people stating this problem but not a single solution. Any ideas please?
    I'm using an Ipad 2
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Although hotmail is a POP account, you can use MS Exchange. I was using 2 hotmail accounts, both on Exchange and both were working well until a few days ago. Now both are working intermittently :-/ look around there are many work arounds, however, no full solutions.

  • HT2480 I keep getting the message "unable to verify account information" how do I fix this? It happened out of no where and I tried re-entering the exchange info and it won't stop giving me the message...any ideas?!?

    I already reset network settings like someone suggested, but still cannot get my exchange acct to work.

    I'm having the same problem but with high speed access.
    Anyone know the answer?

  • Exchange - Unable to Verify Account Information

    We've been trying to setup the iPad on our exchange server, 2003 version. We enter in all the info, and we keep getting the error message "unable to verify account information".
    Now, I synched my droid with no problem.
    Do we need to do something to the server or the iPad?
    Thanks!

    Are you saying you can't set up the account on the iPad?
    I think that's obvious. The OP said:
    We've been trying to setup the iPad on our exchange server
    You are correct. My bad. Sorry. I'm running a little gun shy right now.
    To the original OP...
    if I understand you correctly and you are trying to get an Exchange email account set up on your iPad... are you entering a domain name in the mail settings on your iPad? If you have done so, try removing the domain name and see if it will work without the domain name since the information is optional. I think this is how I got mine to work.

  • Getting 'Unable to verify account information' when attempting to setup Hotmail account

    I enabled two-step verification today on my Hotmail email account.   This is my one and only Outlook account and is my 'primary alias' which is correct.   I am able to retrieve email on my iPhone and Windows PC just fine - have logged in and out several times today on the PC with no problem.   However I now cannot get this account setup properly on my iPad, though it worked before today.   I get the 'Unable to verify account information' message when I try to set up the account new again on iPad.   (I was forced to try and delete and reset it up.)  
    Is this somehow related to the two-step verification?   If so I will remove it and go back to single sign in.   What do you advise for email on the iPad in this case?
    Thanks

    That's a question for Microsoft.

  • Hotmail account unable to verify account information?

    In the past 2 days, I had to change my hotmail password and now I can not use my hotmail on my iphone5.  It gives me a hot mail account, unable to verify account information.  I can log in fine on my pc.  When i called apple, they said it was a microsoft problem, and microsoft says it is an apple problem and they don't support hotmail.

    You stated that you CANNOT use the same password.  That is incorrect.  You CAN use the same password.  That's it. Period.  End of discussion.  Your original statement was false.
    But, let's humor you:
    The fact that I DO use the same password for my account is proof enough for me.  I am an Outlook user.  I am fully aware that it was a CHOICE whether or not to enable Two-Step Verification.  I chose not to use it.
    Secondly, this particular Apple ID that I use is new, yes.  I don't use my old one much on these forums anymore.  Doesn't mean I'm new to the site.  I guess you don't understand how Apple IDs work very well.  But that's okay.
    I did read the link that you provided.  You apparently did not.  The first part says 'After you've turned on two-step verification'.  In other words, it is NOT the default setting.  It was NEVER the default setting.  It was something that the user had to CHOOSE to enable.
    You actually have to sign into your account, go to Password and Security, and Edit security info.
    You have to CHOOSE to turn it on.

  • TS3899 Cannot get my shaw email to work with ios8 on iPhone 5c.  Keep getting unable to verify account information

    I have had my shaw email on my phone forever without problem.  updated to ios8 on thursday and today i cannot access it.  Password is correct but kept asking for it and saying it was wrong.  Deleted the account and tried re-adding it and now i get Exchange Account Unable to Verify account information.  I also tried adding it as other and same message.  I went to shaw's info page but they have not updated for ios8 yet.

    Thanks for your reply.  I use Sky email which is managed by google. I have now deleted the account and set it up again and that seems to be working now. I'm still having problems just getting the Internet connection to work. I won't be taking on any more software upgrades in future until I'm sure that they are worth it.

    I have had the same problem as yours on my Ipad after upgraded Procreate 2.01. My iOS is 7.04. I tried to find solution from internet for weeks. Fortunately, the problem was resolved a few minutes ago. It is very simple,
    1. Lunch outlook.com to confirm you can access hotmail mailbox. It means your account is Ok.
    2. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.Delete your hotmail account from your device.(my device is Ipad)
    3. Turn off your device, then turn on again.
    4. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and create your hotmail account by tap outlook.com. Be sure the incoming mail server is pop3.live.com.
    5. Waiting for validation.
    That's all. Hope my experience is helpful. Good luck!

  • Outlook Account! Unable to verify account information?

    I have always had a hotmail account and have been using it on both my iPhone and iPad with no problem.   Recently it asked me to set up 2 step sign in for security  reasons which I did.  I also changed my password at the same time.  Now I cannot sign in.  When trying to load my messages it says Cannot Get Mail The connection to the sever failed.  If I go in to setting, mail accounts choose hotmail.com and re-enter my password a message comes up Outlook Account Unable to verify account information.   Please can anyone help me?

    Hi have the same Problem. I solved in that way: (also with skydrive)
    Remove the Account from the iPhone.
    Sign in Outlook.com directly with an Internet browser.
    Create New Account On my iPhone.
    Now it works. Also skydrive.

  • HT1694 I enter my hotmail account into outlook and I get the 'unable to verify account information'...why?

    I enter my hotmail account into outlook and I get the 'unable to verify account information'...why?
    My email and password are correct. I can log in and check mail on the site but for some reason not in the app.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I too had this problem.
    I found the answer on another forum question: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25497825#25497825
    If you have enabled Two-Step Verification, then you shoud go to following link:
    https://account.live.com/Proofs/AppPassword
    You will get password for any applications you want to add, just insert that password in place of your regular password and you are good to go.
