IPhone :: Mail Can't Connect To Gmail Server But Was Working Earlier
Apr 16, 2012
everything has been fine until today. I tried to upload and send a photo from an app, but while attaching to a mail i decided to cancel it. Since then for some reason now my iphone is unable to update the mail app with my google mail. I tried deleting the account, restartng the phone, and entering all my details in again. but everytime i get the same error about cannot contact imap server or something.
So my gmail address list or contacts seems to have been hacked and all my contacts who are still talking to me have told me so.So I changed my gmail password.No more complaints, and probably no more friends as contacts.Â
But seriously, I have been able to get gmail (web) working with my new double authentication password(s). Also, my outlook for MAC is working using the special "generated App Password". (because Outlook cannot do the double authentication thingie)Ditto for the gmail app from google on my iPhone. (it works too).BUT I cannot get the iPhone Mail App to connect to Gmail.
I have deleted (i thought) my existing gmail setup from my iPhone. When I try to re establish the gmail settings, using either the password generated by the MAC / iCloud keychain generator or the App password, I get the message "My Name" is already added.
It looks to me that there is something in the iPhone that matches my gmail address, even though I deleted the account.Â

I recently got an iPhone 5S, and it's been great, but suddenly, yesterday, the connection to the server started failing and won't connect me to my mail.
E-mail reconciliation is not working for me with my Gmail account. When I read an e-mail on my BB, it isn't being marked as read in my Gmail. It also isn't working the other way: when I read an e-mail on my computer, my BB doesn't mark it as read.
How can I fix this? E-mail reconciliation in my options is already turned on.
When I get an email I like how the blackberry automatically opens up the email application if I pull it out of the holster.The only problem is that it pulls up the Messages inbox and not my gmail account inbox.Any way to fix this or do anything about it? I have the gmail enhanced plugin if that makes a difference.Also on a totally unrelated note is there a way to search the gmail server from the gmail plugin app?
Been using the mail app without any problems to connect to my work email using the following exchange address: webmail.[companyname].com, for the longest time.
Recently was having connection problems so decided to delete the account and restart.
This time when I try to set things up I get the following error: "Setup could not finish. Unable to connect to server".
Can I assume that my work has changed something, so I can't use the webmail server to connect to exchange?
today my company's email provider changed the hostname for the Exchange server, so I'm stuck with my E72 not syncronizing any more, since I can't edit the server name field in the configuration properties.First of all: is this behavior by design? Because in case it is, the "Change" item in the Options menu should really be removed.
I've been connected to my work email account through Microsoft Exchange for the past year with no problems. I was trying to send out an email today, and my iPhone could not connect to the server. I tried to re-connect multiple times, ultimately deleting the email account from my phone and attempting to re-install it. When I put in all the info into their respective fields and hit "next," all I get is a message that says "Exchange account verification failed." When I go through and save it anyway and try and update emails, it says that it cannot connect to the server. My IT dept. says no changes were made, and I've already tried a restore and restored from a backup, as well.I have no contacts, emails, or calendar on my phone!
Does the native HTC Mail app in Sense UI, push gmail? Or any other IMAP connections that support the IDLE command? Or does only the native gmail app push gmail? I ask, because I have multiple email accounts on my phone, gmail, hotmail, etc.. gmail is on the native gmail app, which is currently pushing... but the others are in the HTC Mail app.
I'd rather have 1 app for everything, instead of bouncing between.. IMAP is IMAP.. which the HTC Mail app supports (for moving to and from folders).. but if it doesn't push using the IDLE command (like gmail app does).. then I'm stuck where I am.
i am using bb since 4 years. i now switched to bb bold 9700 which has wi-fi and 3g. i need help on following topics, sorry if this is repeat question but i searched all possible solutions on website but remained failed.
1. how to set up hotmail, yahoo mail, gmail accounts along with official company mails which is already set up. important is to received online mails the i am receiving official mails on company account, means it rings when a mail hits inbox, i want the same for hotmail, yahoo mail and gmail?
2. how to play Internet on it, when i click on any Internet video, it asked, do you want to switch to wap to stream the video, when i say yes, it gives error message, if i am on wi-fi connection, even then it does not play any video, simply gives error message.
I have a POP3 server that I use with my BB and with Outlook. Messages I read with the BB get left on the server and I get them with outlook just fine. However, just in the last couple of weeks, messages I SEND from the BB also get left in the sent-mail folder on my mail server, which has been causing my mailbox to fill up if I don't log in every couple of days and delete them. How do I turn that off. I see no option either in the Messages application or in the Email Setup Wizard that controls sent mail.
Every time i go to set an mailbox (i.e gmail) i just enter the password and the device just take me to the screen to choose E-mail (Ovi Mail, Yahoo, Gmail...).. Nothing happens.
I have an iphone and setting an e-mail account was peace of cake. Nokia drives me crazy. I did factory defaults and everything but nothing seems to help. I can access internet by wi-fi and by my operator (successfully browse the WEB).
I have my own mail server. When my iPhone is on the local WiFi, it can log in and read mail. When it is on the 3G connection, it gets the message 'The mail server "intellexcorp.com" is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in the Mail settings.' The setttings are unchanged. There is no firewall on the server computer. I can't see why the same settings would have a problem connecting. No other services, including mail and remote access have a problem accessing this computer by name or by IP.
Cannot Get Mail The connection to the server failed. I've deleted and re-added my exchange account, done a hard reboot and even reset my network settings. I had already had my exchange account up and running for a couple of weeks when one morning I woke up to that message. Since then I can't get back in.
about 6 months ago my mother in law purchased an Iphone. I set up her email for her using a pop 3. At the time I could not get the godaddy outgoing email server to work so I used my local ISP provied outgoing smtp server with my user name and password.
Now my mother in law moved to a different sate and she got a new iphone but my outgoing mail server still shows up as the primary outgoing mail server so she still needs my user name and password.
Also on my iphone I noticed there are 8 "other smtp servers" in addition to the primary. I want to delete them all.
AT&T Outgoing Server cwmx.com is not working for me at all any more. Around June 7th, it just stopped working. I keep getting the, "No server response". I have an iPhone 4G, OS5.1.1 I deleted the cwmx.com outgoing server and readded which did not help. I deleted the "pop" email accounts and readded them which did not help. I reset the network settings; the factory settings; then restored the phone back to a date previous to the problem. None helped.
I have been getting the following error on my iPhone the last couple of days when accessing one of my two Yahoo mail accounts using the mail client-Â "Cannot Get Mail - The connection to the server failed."Â
If I restart my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.1) the error goes away temporarily and mail is received, but the error eventually returns. The error only occurs with one of my two associated Yahoo mail accounts, the other Yahoo account works fine.Â
I have reset my password multiple times, and input the special password for my iphone (4s model). I cannot access any of my yahoo email accounts. I have tried deleting accounts and adding them again and this didn't work either.
Right in the middle to the day on Sept. 9 my iPhone 5 started getting "Cannot Get Mail" messages when trying to connect to my work mail server. This account has been running fine for the last year. However iCloud mail works and the exact same settings on my iPad and desktop are working without a glitch. I have tried closing, soft rebooting, powering off etc.Â
A few days ago my Yahoo Mail stopped connecting, and I started seeing the above noted error message (Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed.) While it won't retrieve messages, it will let me send. So at least SMTP seems to be working OK.Â
I've tried deleting it and adding it back, but to no avail. I've rebooted the phone. I've and any combination of options found on these boards.Â
On my iPhone 4s my gmail account in the native mail app stopped working. This is the second time this has happened.I get a message that reads,"Cannot Get Mail The user name or password for"accountname" is incorrect." I clicked on settings and checked both. They were correct. I got same
error message when I tried again so I deleted and re-entered the user name and password and got the same error message. When I use the Gmail iPhone app or go to iGoogle on my laptop the username and password work fine. I've seen this symptom once before and deleting the account from my iPhone and setting it up afresh corrected the problem.Not this time.Now I get the error message above over and over.
iPhone 4s, ios 5.1, Verizon customer. I have never had an issue until this phone. Why I can see the "delete from server" option, but I can't check it? It's really annoying to delete emails from my phone and then have to go back and delete from my computer.
Cannot send outgoing messages from my IPhone. Receive the following message: Cannot Send Mail, The connection to the outgoing server"pgfitzterald@cox.net" failed. Additional OUtgoign Mail Servers can be configured in Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendar
When I enter mail on my iphone 5c, a box comes up telling me it Cannot Get Mail...the connection to the server failed...........but then it get my mail.........how do I get this box to NOT pop up all the time. It is a new phone (one week old) and this started 2 days ago>>>
