  • Why am I not receiving e-mails with activation code for e-print ?

    why am I not receiving e-mails with activation code for e-print ???? Have requested resends of e-mail several times -- but nothing as yet 

    Hi yvonnek49,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that when trying to activate the HP ePrint app that you haven’t received the activation code.
    Which email address are you using to activate the app, your personal email or the printer’s ePrint email address?  If you have been using the printer’s ePrint email address, please try again with your personal email address.  If you have been using your personal email address, please check your junk/spam folders to see if it was redirected there.  It can take up to 24 hours to receive the email.

  • Why can I not receive e-mail, but I can send it??

    The last e-mail I received in my Thunderbird e-mail was at 3:57am on 6/20/14. I can go to comcast and get my e-mail, but it is not coming to my computer under Thunderbird. Why??

    Close Thunderbird. Log onto the web mail page of your ISP and delete the oldest message in the inbox that has not yet been downloaded to Thunderbird. (Or move it to a server folder other than the inbox.) Launch Thunderbird and try again to "Get Mail".
    Sometimes a message with a malformed header can block Thunderbird from properly reading and downloading it from the server and that can prevent the download of the other messages in the server inbox.

  • Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

    Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
    This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
    Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

    Sorry ?
    An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
    Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
    If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
    I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

  • Why am I not receiving ALL my e-mail in Ipad. I get it on PC and blackberry

    why am i not receiving all my e-mails on ipad2? I get them on my blackerry and on my pc.

    I believe most PC mail programs by default are set to delete messages from the server once they are downloaded onto the PC.  So if you access your email on your PC before your iPad checks for email some messages won't be there. To minimize this make sure you have Push set to on and Fetch set a short time limit (not Manual).

  • Why am I not receiving my AOL mail?

    Why am I not receiving my AOL mail? I receive it on my phone and on other computers but not my iMac.

    Go Mail - Preferences - Accounts and re-input all the settings for it even if they look OK. From time to time a setting can become corrupt, on the surface it looks fine but underneath it's not OK. If you re-input that will remove the old setting and input a new one and this frequently helps.

  • Mac E-Mail Not Receiving Incoming Mail From ATT/Yahoo Mail Server

    Recently "upgraded" to ATT U-verse. My Mac email client (3.6) suddenly not receiving incoming mail from the web-based ATT/Yahoo. Settings-all are correct: Telephone talk with Tier 1 and Tier 2 ATT reps confirmed "unusual" problem, and that the settings (ports, ssl, etc.) are indeed all correct. Tier 2 supervisor referred ticket (F23576784) to the brilliant minds at Yahoo for help. I've heard nothing for five days. Some emails do get received on my client, from (Apple, ATT, for example). Others languish on the web-based mail, with no push to my iMac. Tests of sending myself e-mails continue to confirm problem, with test emails sitting at Yahoo server, no push to my Mac client.
    I am able to send e-mails successfully from client. Interestingly, a couple of incoming e-mails from friends did manage to slip through the lines and arrive in my Mac client a couple of days late. Brave little souls, they're not talking.
    I've tried all sockets, all other settings possible, but no luck. Why is there no straight-forward answer to this proliferating problem? Odd e-mail behaviors? No documented or shared answers by the big outfits to Mac users? Mac mail virtually disabled and useless? Has anyone found a path to resolving the varied but similar problems in this area yet? Thanks in advance for any help offered beyond adjusting preferences over and over and over. That ain't working.

    Geez, some emails are getting through, most are not forwarded to my client MacMail. They are also marked as read, which could mean that Yahoo is forwarding them somewhere...(?) Can't get ahold of Yahoo, ATT forwards me to Yahoo, Yahoo has no method of emailing real, technical questions, ATT supervisor actually called Apple and there is nothing wrong with the OS or my set up requirements.
    Does anyone know a workaround for setting up smtp requirements? Can't switch email clients at this time, would take a lot of changing existing contact info for bizz.
    At this point all I would like to know is, where is the problem? Why does a server (ATT/Yahoo) send some mail to my account, not send others, and marks all messages on the webmail as read? Thanks for the one response, I do believe the problem is some minor error set at the isp's server software for Macs, but who knows?

  • Not receiving e-mails from comcast

    I am not receiving e-mails from a friend who is with comcast.  Several other people from verizon are also having this problem.  The message is not in my spam folder.  I have tried to solve it at this end and she has tried at comcasts end.  Neither takes responsibility.  Do my filers need adjusting to receive comcast mail?  It is very frustrating.

    Thank you.  I did find the message in my spam detector.  However, I don't understand why it doesn't go into my regular inbox.
    If its a sender you want you can identify the sender as safe.  Then a copy goes to spam detector and the inbox.
    They do not give what the rules are for the Spam Detector thinking a message is spam.  To do that would give spammers a hint on how to get around it.  But I have noticed a few things that causes valid mail to be thought to be spam.  E.g..  messages with exclamation points in the Subject.

  • I am not receiving e-mail from my subscriptions

    I subscribed to two discussions, one of which I initiated, and I have not received any e-mail from them. There have been posts to the discussion since I subscribed and my e-mail address is correct. Why am I not getting e-mail?

    Hi David!
    Your not alone. Many users haven't received any since Sat 12/31/05. Myself included.
    The Email notification function seems to be, occasionally problematic.
    I'm sure it's one of the things being ironed out.
    I have noticed that when the Emails don't get sent for a period of time, they will eventually catch up.
    In the interim, I check my Subscriptions here in Discussions.

  • Why am I not receiving a requestcode?

    I bought a 1 year license for Adobe CS6 Design & Web Premium for Windows on Slim.nl. I could not install it succesfully, because the software couldn't "see" that I was connected to internet (and you have to be connected to instal the software correctly, or I can only use it for 7 days). I tried to activate it offline, but when I made a Adobe account and logged in, the webpage told me that I should have received a requestcode, I presume via e-mail. I have not gotten any mail from Adobe (beside the e-mail to verify the mail adress to be able to post on this forum). I can use the software now, but only for the next 6 days, until I am able to succesfully instal all the software.
    My questions:
    How could it be that the software didn't "see" I an had internet connection? (I tried multiple times, with multiple wifi-spots)
    Why am I not receiving a requestcode?
    [I did get the page for the requestcode in Dutch, so maybe "request code" isn't the proper term I am using]
    I hope someone can help me with this problem, so I can use te software the entire year, instead of only this week.

    RubyManuela please see Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html for information on how to resolve the error with your Internet connection.
    Also I would recommend you contact the reseller which you purchased your one year use of Creative Suite 6 through if you continue to face difficulties with the redemption code.

  • Not receiving e-mails on iPad Mini 2

  • HT201320 Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

    Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

    Hi Nortarian,
    The article below will walk you through the troubleshooting steps for email on your iPad:
    iOS: Unable to send or receive email
    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.
    Hope this helps ....

    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
              •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 993
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
              •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 587
              •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
    Thanks to dpepper...

  • Iphone mail app not receiving e-mail from 1 sender

    The Mail app on my iPhone 6/iOS 8.3 is not receiving e-mail from one sender sent to my Outlook e-mail account. This sender's e-mail address is "[email protected]". It is a notification of digital magazines available from Zinio. I know the mail app is not receiving the e-mail because Outlook 2013 on my desktop and Outlook.com do receive these e-mails. How can I get the mail app on my iPhone to receive these e-mails from this address?

    Initially it sounds like something with your backup data caused the issue with your new device but if you restored your device again without using the backup and the issue still exists it wouldn't appear to be the issue at all. Since the problem seems to only be with one person are you sure it's not an issue on their end and with their network that is stopping you from receiving the messages? Have you tried *228 option 2 to see if that helps?
