Why is my outlook account on iOS mail not logging in?

I have an outlook account that was logged in and used to work on the mail app on my iPhone 4s. Then it stopped receiving mail so I logged the account out and logged back in and a message keeps on popping up saying that it is unable to verify the account. So I deleted the account and re-added it yet the same message pops up. All software is up to date.
(The password and email address entered is correct, I can still log on into mail on a web browser)

Ask Microsoft... It's their server that's rejecting your credentials, not the phone.

I want to be assured that my back up is working completely. What if my MacBookPro auto-logs off my account during the backup due to no activity? Or, is the backup considered activity and it won't log off?
What about the Energy saving options - will they affect the backup ?

Assuming you mean via Time Machine, yup. It backs up your entire system, including all user accounts (unless you specifically exclude things).

I've never tried it, but the backups run as the "root" user, so will probably continue. If they don't, it's not a problem, as the next backup will "catch up" with all changes.

Not really. If you have the Mac set to shut down at a particular time, that will of course interrupt a backup if one is running. But again, the next backup will catch up.

How do I archive IMAP messages with non Gmail/iCloud account on iOS Mail.app?

This may seem like a simple question, however I don't seem to be able to work this one out for myself. I hope you guys/girls can help!
I have my IMAP email account setup on my iPhone (own domain name, DBmail IMAP mail server running on VPS). Email works great; I can send/receive, delete, move messages no problem.
When I used MobileMe, Gmail or iCloud, I was given the option to "Archive mail" in the account configuration for that mail account in Settings.app. However, with a simple IMAP account, even though I have an "Archive" folder in my IMAP mailbox, which shows up with a suitable 'Archive-like' icon in Mail.app on my iPhone, I am not given the option to "Archive mail" - i.e. move a message from 'Inbox' to 'Archive' by touching the Archive button - Instead, I just get the delete button, which just moves messages to my 'Trash' folder in my mailbox.
Up to now, I've just put this down to Mail.app on iOS lacking this functionality. After upgrading to iOS 6 this morning (which I hoped would bring this functionality) I'm starting to question whether there's a setting or a workaround that I've missed that provides this functionality. I'm not sure I understand why Mail.app on my MAC allows me to Archive mail for my simple IMAP account, but my iOS devices won't.
Does anyone know of a way to get a simple IMAP account setup in Mail.app on iOS to 'Archive' mail, as opposed to delete? Please chime in if you have any suggestions.
Joe

I know this is old but it's google #1 for the relevant search and it took me a while
Settings -> mail, contacts, calendars -> pick the imap account -> advanced
Move discarded emails to:
Pick the 'archive' option
I have no idea why, must be apple logic, but with delete being the default that's all you can do, when archive is the selection it replaces the deleted button but you can hold it down to get a delete/trash option also.

IOS mail not picking up mail from yahoo account

Hi guys,
few days ago i deleted some of my mail by accident, so i used yahoo's restoring email service to get my mail back.
after its restored all my mails are back, but on my iOS for some resason 'inbox' just not picking up any mails at all (old and new mails), all the other folders works just fine (e.g. sent, junk, trash and my persoanl folders).
I have tried to delete the yahoo account from iOS then reinstall it, still the same problem. but on my Mac's Mail everything is just fine.
I really dont know what do to next.
hope someone can help me out here,
thanks in advance!

BTW my phone is iphone 5 and running on iOS7

Yahoo email hasn't been reliable for me. I get a lot of errors when yahoo goes to put a copy of my sent email in to the sent folder. I am using thunderbird with imap.
Does the wife have a paid account? I do and I think it is required for downloading your email.
The email pop protocol hasn't changed much so I'd think 10.3 would still be ok.
What to do?
wait.
Try another mail reader. set to leave on server. could try thunderbird with imap. not perfect.

Delete gmail account from iOS mail

gmail shows up as an inactive account in my ios mail settings. however, gmail still loads into my inbox. I want to eliminate gmail completely and only get icloud mail. I can't find a way to do it.

Since you are in the Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks) forum but are asking about iOS (iPhone, iPad, etc), I'm not sure how to answer. So, here is how to do it in either:
In Mavericks (i.e. on a Mac):
Open "System Preferences" > "Internet Accounts"
Select your Google account in the left sidebar
Click the "-" icon at the bottom left to delete the account
In iOS (i.e. on an iPhone):
Touch "Settings"
Touch "Mail, Contacts, Calendars"
Touch your Gmail Account
At the bottom of the screen, touch "Delete Account"
That's it. If you delete accounts per the above instructions then there is simply no way for your Gmail to continue to come in to Apple Mail on Mavericks or iOS. The only way that could happen is if you have set up your Gmail account to forward mail to your iCloud account.
I hope this helps.

Character encoding problem by Gmail set up as exchange account on IOS mail

It was maybe asked before but I could not find any solution. If someone can help I would appreciate it...
If I set up my gmail, which I use very heavily, as Gmail on the IOS mail installation it would be set up as IMAP and does not push the emails. If I choose it to install as exchange account via m.google.com everything is OK and I get my mails instantly. But the way over exchange disturbs because of the character encoding problem. IOS mail does not show me the turkish or some german characters like "ü" and the mail is almost not readable... By version 1 also as IMAP there is no problem with the characters but I must start IOS mail everytime to see if I have new mail...
Does anyone know a solution for it?
Thanks...
Mel

But I cannot set the the gmail app as standart email program, or? I mean if I want to send a page on safari and click send via email, the mail.app would start and not the gmail.app.... I am using Iphone since a few weeks and as far as I know a customisation is not possible.

More information would be helpful. What version of the OS are you using? Who is your e-mail provider and is the account IMAP or POP? Were you able to successfully set up the account?

Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages

Why does my .mac account automatically "get mail"?

I am migrating my email from Entourage to Mail. I have a .mac account, an account from my ISP, an account from my hosting account, and several emails for a domain of which I am the webmaster and admin.
Problem is, for some strange reason I can force all my other accounts to only get mail when I manually check it. But my .mac account is delivered into my inbox for my .mac account whenever I click on that box in my Inbox list. I can see a little dial icon that tells me that Mail is checking it then my message appears in the list.
I am trying to accomplish many things as I set up my boxes and this is the first step in learning about Mail. Its more of a control issue but it is important to me.
G4 Mirror Doors Mac OS X (10.4.8)

OK. It seems a few things need clarification here.
First of all, both POP and IMAP accounts use SMTP for sending, so there should be no difference in this regard. Also, mail accounts that allow both POP and IMAP access may very well use the same incoming mail server for both, so no surprise there either, except POP and IMAP access use different port numbers (which, in the case of Mail, you can see in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced).
I find it hard to believe that you cannot set up your .Mac account as IMAP in Entourage. In Mail, you can only choose the account type when setting up the account, and can see (but not change) it afterwards in Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Account Type. If you see “.Mac” there, it means IMAP, the main difference between .Mac and IMAP being that Mail does more things automatically for you if it knows that it’s a .Mac account.
Doesn't look like it is possible.
Well, it’s possible if you set up your .Mac account as POP, if that’s what you want:

Outlook 2010 additional account same server - mail not sending

Hi,
I have setup a new domain (child.domain.local) and a second mailbox for the boss on our Exchange 2010 server. I have created a new User account in the new domain for him and a new mailbox in Exchange. I have given Send As and Full Access permission
on the new mailbox to his original user account ([email protected]) and added the new mailbox as an additional account in Outlook 2010.
The new mailbox is visible in Outlook with emails addressed to the new email address but when trying to send from the new email address the email just sits in the Outbox, despite sending and receiving completing fully with no errors.
Any ideas what I am missing please?
Also, I have disabled the new user account in ADUC in the new domain ([email protected]).

Hi Tippers,
Sorry for the late reply.
Yes, you are right. OWA works well but Outlook not, it seems like an issue on the Outlook Client side.
Our emails stuck in Outbox without errors, this problem is likely to be related to our local Outlook configuration.
If Outlook is not sending only some Outbox emails, please make sure we don't have the habit to preview/open/click on Outbox emails.
If Outlook is not sending any of our Outbox emails, please try one of the following methods:
1. Please make sure Outlook is not set to the Offline mode.
2. Run Outlook under safe mode to avoid some AVs, add-ins and firewall.
3. Our Outlook data files may be corrupted. Please performing a data file scan via Outlook ScanPST tool.

After moving mailbox to iCloud, iOS mail not in date order

A few days ago I uploaded a large Hotmail mailbox to a new iCloud one.
I did this by using OSX (Mountain Lion) Mail selecting all mails in the Hotmail folder Inbox and dragging them to my newly created .ME iCloud mailbox. I repeated this for the Sent mailbox
All worked great. I now have all my 12,000 emails and attachments in iCloud. Everything is in the correct order and when I open up iCloud on Safari my mails are correct there too.
When I open up mail on my iPad(3) or my iPhone 4s, the mails are in a bizarre order. E.g. the first page will show me an email from yesterday, one from a couple of years ago.
If I do a search "Load More Messages" for any particular mail or sender, all the mails pop up in the search. When I close the search, I get the same bizarre list of non date-ordered emails again.
I tried setting the phone/iPad to Fetch, Push, Manual.. all combinations to no avail.
I just tried a complete iPhone restore. Same problem.
Next step I was going to delete/re-sign in my iOS account. Bit wary of deleting the iCloud account on the iOS devices at this stage as I'm worried I may delete cloud data as well as my iOS device data. Maybe this is not the problem anyway.
Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks

Lets just call that a glitch.
I repeated the whole process (deleted iCloud mails first) and it works fine now

Why is my google accounts login in page not working?

If I try to access any webpage with a Google accounts login on, for example Youtube Login Page, Google Docs, Google Calendar, Google Mail... etc... Firefox freezes and I lose all control of the program and have to abort with Task Manager. This is only a problem on beta, as it worked fine in previous versions, and other browsers.

I think that you might be using a serial number that is not legitimate. Only blacklisted serial numbers will give such message or prompt you to activate the software each time you launch. Please check with Adobe customer support chat to confirm that you're using a valid serial numbers.
What happens is, when the software is returned for a refund that are purchased from Adobe.com store some people sell it online in auctions site like eBay along with the complete package. You can report this issue at [email protected] and action will be taken accordingly. Please check the reseller list in adobe.com website

Why does my icloud account on my ipad not filter my email

I am not receiving junk mail, so when i dont receive certain emails I know for certain I should where has it gone?

Call Apple support someone needs to reset your account and they told me there was a redflag stating the account was a "re-saler" account meaning someone worked for Apple or used their log-In name in an electronic store or something. Just call and they ask some questions and send it to a higher up who changes the account back to a regular account.

Why does email address auto-fill in mail not work?

When composing a new email, if I understand correctly, as you type the name, a suggestion SHOULD pop up with the address of the person.
This works perfectly in iOS (iPhone/iPad) but does not work on both my MacBook Pros...
What is the solution?
I tried deleting all contacts, export to CSV, re-import etc. but to no avail...
Thanks for your help
