Why can't I get my email on my iPad when every Apple device works just fine?

The title kind of says it all. I get my email (Cox in SoCal) on my desktop and phone but, for some reason, not to my Pad. I'll get a message box saying that the server isn't recognized or unaurthorized or unavailable; sometimes it's a combo of all three. I'm guessing that I have to delete the Mail app then re-install from the App Store and reenter everything. That sound about right to everyone? And, to anyone else in SoCal using Cox, have you had this happen? Just curious. Thanks.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

    I can't access my icloud email from my iPad. It keeps telling me to install icloud on my device but it's already there.

    Settings>icloud:  is it correctly logged into icloud with the right account?

  • Why can't I recieve or send mail on my macbook pro? Mail works just fine on iphone4

    The account comes up with a little warning triangle by the name of the account, when I click on it this is the first message :
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “@rogers.com” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “www.rogers.com” on port 110 timed out.
    This is the second error, after I click the warning triangle the second time
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “@rogers.com” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “www.rogers.com” on port 110 timed out.
    In between the above messages, I've also received the please re-enter your password message, which I do and then I get the same message 30 seconds later. At this point I usually have to do a forced quit to make it go away 8-(
    I have had my macbook for two years and mail has worked just fine until this week!!
    My Mac is OS X version 10.6.8, and its just the mail that comes with macs.
    I have tried deleting and re-opening the account?! and restarting the computer
    I have tried connection doctor and it just tells me what I already know---it can't connect to the server

    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “www.rogers.com” on port 110 timed out.
    It sounds like you're trying to connect to a web server, not a mail server. Check with your ISP for the right server address and settings.

    Why can't I get my email to work on my Ipad?
    I've checked everything back to my email on my computer to ensure all details are correct in trying to add the account onto the Ipad.  And yet it still won't work.
    The error that I keep getting is "One Seniors (the provider) is not responding!!
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to why it won't work?
    I have internet access and it's working.  I'm using WiFi and that's working??

    Best suggestion is to contact them directly for guidance.  I wasn't familiar with them, but found their contact information.  Click this link to contact them:  http://www.oneseniors.com.au/contact/

    To each his own. I own Outlook, but I avoid using it like the plague. The only Mac mail software I have liked better than Apple's Mail was Qualcomm's Eudora, which is no longer updated or even available, won't run without Rosetta, and unfortunately never quite got the hang of IMAP.
    Check out this post regarding this user's continuing use of Eudora on his Lion MacBook:
    Shield Eudora from Lion's Claws
    A thousand thanks and kudos to Michael for this fabulously excellent thread!
    Eudora's now happy in her new Snow Leopard VM home on my Lion ModBook!
    Appears essential to keep resource-forked data off Lion disk:
    First attempt with Eudora on SL VM was sharing data on Lion disk. Error messages on open like "can't find Table of Contents" suggest Lion ate resource forks crucial to Eudora.
    Found success by transferring data from SL Mac to thumb drive, then mounted drive in SL VM so Lion couldn't touch.
    While Michael warns against storing data in VM, appears there's no choice with Eudora. At least She's enthroned on a mirrored RAID.
    There is Nothing like Eudora! (to tune of "There is Nothing Like a Dame" from South Pacific -- Oops! my gray hair is showing!)
    (It's amazing Parallels can force Lion to store taboo resource forks. Thank God for code warriors!)

    Try deleting the account on the iPod and recreating the account.  Sometimes it is easier to renter everything rather than trying to find the error.

    Look in settings, safari.  There are two setting that might help, depending on how the website wants to see you.  If they are using cookies, make sure your accept cookies switch is on.
    Then look at the autofill setting.  You can turn names and passwords on or off.

    In which case, clearly communicating the intent would have been a better solution.  The steps do apply.  A more appropriate response would have been "tried that, no change".
    Regardless of whether they fixed the problem or not, they do apply.
    If English is not your native language, I would strongly encourage you to post in your native language going forward.
    If basic troubleshooting has not resolved the issue, the next step is to take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • HT204291 Why can't I get full screen from my ipad to Apple TV

    Why can't I get full screen from my ipad to Apple TV?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
    You may wish to try each of the settings in settings > AirPlay > Adjust for Overscan for the best setting that suits you.

    Without a Blackberry Data Plan you can't get email pushed to your Curve.  While on your wi-fi network you are able to access your email, but away from that link you need a data plan.
