Why does my IPad say "sending the message content to the server failed

Why does my IPad say "sending the message content to the server failed"  I have checked the wi-fi connection and everything is fine and the email addresses are correct so what's wrong

Is it an ordinary mail without attachments and links in the body of the email? If so, try deleting the email accountb and setting it up again.

  • HT202044 Why does my iPad say that it has to download the firmware for my AV adapter when I plug it in?

    I am trying to play videos from my iPad to my TV, but when I plug in my AV adapter to my iPad it says it has to download the firmware for the accsory. And it is supposidly already downloading when the message pops up I can never see any type of status bar or anything like that.

    That appears to be a bug in iOS 8.2. Restoring your iPad to Factory settings has fixed it for those reporting the problem.

  • TS3274 Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner

    Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner ?

    Hi Edwardtracey,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have a cellular data plan and there is no service where you currently are.
    The article below will explain this feature and how to turn the setting on/off.
    The article has more details and screenshots, but I've quoted highlights below for you:
    iOS: About the Cellular Data setting
    Cellular data is used for data communication in cellular networks. It does not affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or to use Wi-Fi networks for Internet connectivity. If you turn off cellular data, you will be unable to:
    See the cellular data icons in the status bar (for example, LTE or 3G).
    Send or receive MMS messages. However, you can still send and receive SMS and iMessages if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    Retrieve or listen to new Visual Voicemail messages. To retrieve these messages, enable Cellular Data.
    Use Personal Hotspot.
    You can adjust this setting by going to:
    iPad: Settings > Cellular
    Additional Information
    You can also enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS features from this setting:
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • HT5824 why does my ipad say user name disabled, but on all other devices i can pog into itunes and icloud using my user name

    why does my ipad say user name disabled but i can use my user name to log into itunes and icloud on other devices

    At this time there is no "solution." You'll simply have to wait the 90 days to re-enable iTunes Match.
    For now here is my suggestion. In your User Account, in OS X, sign out of whatever iTunes Store account you are signed in with. Then sign in with your store account and leave it at that. Now sign out of your OS X User Account, sign into your wife's OS X User Account and sign into the iTunes Store with her Apple ID (if necessary sign out of the account first).
    Now, you can go back to your OS X User Account and attempt to enable iTunes Match. You will probably get the "wait 90 days" message. If so leave it, mark your calendar, and wait for the 90 days to expire. You can try contacting iTunes Store support at <https://expresslane.apple.com> if you wish, but I really do not know how useful that will be.
    Incidentally, you get the message to pay for the service when trying to enable it on your wife's Apple ID because the service has not been purchased using that Apple ID. iTunes Match is designed to be a single-user service that is never signed out of and is associated with one, and only one, Apple ID and a regional store.

    How long has it been going on? I've had my yahoo mess up and if i wait a bit it resolves itself. Yahoo is doing something with their servers and it messes with your mail if your mail happens to be on one of those servers.

    Why does my ipad say i cant make anymore applie ids or an i cloud account abd how do i get an account HELP please !!!!!

    Hello, I had the same problem (repeatedly) until I did this, it works!
    Remove sim, very very lightly rub the sim card's contacts (the metallic parts) with a standard pencil eraser. I suspect its just a micro-residue from the manufacturing process interfering with complete contact.

  • Cannot send email via AOL on iPad2 - "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."

    My CEO has an ipad2 and I set it up w/ AOL.  She cannot send any email via her AOL account from her iPad.  She gets a message that says "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."   We've tried it on wifi and on 3G (Verizon version).  I've removed the account and added it, I've tried setting it up as an IMAP account vs. using Apples standard AOL mail setting and nothing seems to work.  The SMTP settings are smtp.aol.com, port 587.  I've tried adding an alternate server/smtp, but I haven't been able to find anything that works.  Any advice or other people having this issue?  It works fine sending an email from her aol web mail.  And unfortunately, having her sign up for a gmail account is not an option.  Thanks

    Interesting.  Firstly I have been on AOL since the early 90s with no current intention to switch as my primary personal email account.
    I have two email accounts on my iphone - AOL and my email from my business website.  I deleted both and then recreated first the business account and then the AOL account.  Same error.  Then I wasn't sure what you suggested but I turned off the AOL SMTP server and selected the business email SMTP server by turning it on with the same result.  I still get the error "A Copy has been placed in your Outbox.  Sending the mssage content to the server failed."
    Perhaps this problem will get fixed by IOS 6.   AOL will not talk to me unless I pay and Apple says its not their problem.  So for the time being I use the AOL web interface in the iPhone's Safari to send emails from the phone.

  • Sending email error with Yahoo: "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."

    HELP!  Why am I getting this error message? It's driving me crazy! When I try to send an email,  the message stalls in the outbox and the following message pops up -  "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed." I have deleted and reinstalled the account, restarted the phone, etc - what the heck? The emails work just fine at Yahoo online, so the account it fine...I don't want to hard reset the phone, as I had to do that recently and it's a pain - any suggestions?

    OR they are the right settings but you are trying to send through a different internet provider or 3G provider, that does not allow that SMTP server to send email.
    if I send email from 3g or someone elses wifi on a different ISP, it will not work, because it does not allow that server to be contacted. this is normal.
    What you want to do is setup a gmail account and use their SMTP server settings for the defauly outgoing server. that way you dont have to worry about this.

  • Sending the message content to the server failed. Attachment.

    So I've been a Eudora user for more than a decade and just thought I'd try Mail and have been using it for about a month. This evening I was in the midst of writing messages and about halfway through, Mail would no longer send outgoing messages that contain attachments (I had sent messages earlier in the evening with attachements). I just get a response that says, "Sending the message content to the server failed." I have no problem sending messages that don't have an attachment.
    I have two separate email accounts that I use. For both I use my own domain as the smtp server which is hosted through aplushosting.com. It's smtp.riversandcreeks.com. Server port is set to 25 and authentication is set to none. Everything has worked fine until this evening (and it literally stopped halfway through my evening email session so I'm sure this is not related to a system upgrade or other software changes).
    I have spent about two hours trying all different settings. I tried changing authentication, screwed around with Network settings, and did just about anything I could think of (or read about trying after doing several searches on this board). I also trashed the Outbox in my Library and restarted the machine.
    In one of the posts where someone seemed to be having the same problem, I saw something about changing the MTU setting but I'm not familiar with what that means and there was not enough background to explain.
    My service provider is Comcast (just use them for the high speed connection but not the mail services) and I have one of their older RCA modems hooked into a wireless router that I access via airport.
    If anyone has suggestions (or can refer me to other posts on this forum I may have missed please let me know).
    Thanks!

    However, there are
    too many variables in your setup to yet be sure of
    the cause.
    Agreed. There are too many variables and they only seem to increase...
    You describe your modem as older, but you have not
    reported the make of router?
    It's a Microsoft router (my other half's employer). It has worked fine though for more than two years.
    Does it have ethernet
    ports, as well as wireless? If so, do you have a
    cable to test without wireless?
    Yes, tried all that.
    Have you tried powering down modem, router and Mac
    for a couple of minutes, and then powering back up,
    beginning with the modem, and then router?
    Yes, tried that too.
    MTU may be a factor, but the way things changed in
    mid sending, is a little odd, and it is not as
    frequently a factor with wireless. Later, I can give
    you a link that may help check MTU and wireless, but
    I need to research a bit on that.
    Do you have a Comcast address, and could you set up
    that Comcast account for a test?
    That would be another project but I suppose I could call Comcast and figure it out and it may provide some additional insight. However that will not solve the problem as I am highly mobile and am using different hot spots on a daily basis. I was down at the Apple Store and tried on their wireless network (so presumably eliminating all the variables with my home network and isp and on the most Mac-friendly network I can find). Same problem. Messages with attachments won't go out but all other messages will. I do get a slightly different error message there. It says "Verify that you have addressed this message correctly. Check your SMTP server settings in Mail Preferences and verify any advanced settings with your system administrator." I also have a ticket with my hosting service. They say they have not made any recent changes that would result in this problem. Will keep pursuing with them too to see if they have additional ideas.
    I'm really perplexed as to what would be distinguishing between mail with attachments vs. those without. As an additional test I fired up Eudora and I can send out attachments fine.

  • Sending the message content to the server failed

    I have 2 mail accounts setup in Mail. They are on separate domains I host on my server. One account works great, the other gives this error message every time I try to send. "Sending the message content to the server failed." It offeres me to use a different outgoing mail server.
    I am on latest Lion 10.7.3. mail version os 5.2 (latest). I connect through Airport Extreme.
    I Googled the problem and searched everywhere. I also tried deleting and setting up the account. I checked all my settings (multiple times). There is nothing to fix in settings. The Connection doctor does not see any problems.
    Here is the really frustrating part: Messages actually get sent. The recipeint always receives them. If I try again with the same server, I get the same error message and again message gets sent. But to Mail it is still unsent and sits in Outbox prompting to send.
    I also tried the MTU trick. No luck. I should also say that I have seen this problem before on other accounts. I've also seen it come and go. It happened on Snow Leoprad and Leopard too.
    Any ideas?

    I should add that the account (like the one that works) is setup as POP/SMTP. It is set to use its own domain as outgoing mail server. Again, messages get sent but Mail doesn not think so.

  • TS3899 Tried all the tips on line. Every time I try to send an e-mail, it gives me this message, "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed" Any help in how to resolve would be appreciated

    Message is " A copy has been placed in your

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My internet works fine as I can send e-mails from my Yahoo account on my MAC no problem.
    Address is fine etc.
