IPhone :: Set Up Hotmail Settings Asks POP / IMAP?
Jan 21, 2010
When i go to set up my email which is a live.ca email with my iphone i cant get it to work it asks POP or IMAP and asks for host, user name and password for incoming and outgoing server i currently have the server for incoming as pop3.live.com and outgoing as stmp.live.com with my user name and password in the other fields it is set to IMAP. anyone know what to set it to to get it working?
I currently have a Droid Pro, wanted to set up Hotmail as IMAP or Active Sync. Currently have it set up as POP3, but wanted the full capabilities from the phone. (Yes, I know, the simple answer is to switch to gmail, but I have had this hotmail account for many years). I have tried the steps listed here: [URL]
Added a Corporate Sync account. Entered these parameters: Email Address: <my email> Password: <my password> Domain: Blank Username: <my email> Server: m.hotmail.com Use secure connection: Checked
When I enter these details, it adds the account to the phone. However, when I go into that account, after a few minutes I get an error: "Unable to connect to Hotmail1." The strange thing is, I am able to see my subfolder set up after it timed out while trying to connect. How to get Hotmail working on a Droid Pro...other than POP3?
I just set up Exchange 2010 and it runs greats supports SSL for IMAP POP and Activesync. IMAP is great because you have access to all your Inbox folders (with Active Sync / Exchange you can only have 1 such mailbox - blows). I've set up IMAP to my server on Android and BBs for my company clients - works great. I use IMAP at home with Outlook - great! I set up my Nokia Belle C7 and it pulls 20 random old messages off the server. I cannot figure out why it refuses to update the inbox contents.
I set to subscribe to all my other IMAP inbox folders no prob, it sees them. It outright refuses to see anything but the random old messages in my inbox? Whats going on? My phone is C7 Belle updated completely. I set up the account again as a "Hotmail" account and specified the exchange server - works very well and syncs well. Here you don't have access to any Inbox folders. Is this a bug with Nokia IMAP and exchange? I have another IMAP account which does work with Nokia.
I just did a software update on my S5 and now my IMAP q.com email account only updates like 2 times a day even when the settings are set for every 30 minutes. It won't sync when I press the refresh button. My work IMAP email works fine.
Unable to define server settings when setting up IMAP or POP3 mailbox. Setup Wizard no longer gives these options when selecting OTHER as your email client type.
Just bought new Nokia 2730 and everything else is OK but I am not able to add my hotmail account to email settings. It always says that login fails. Live ID and password is OK and Live Messenger under chat is working with my account. I have the latest firmware v 09.41 02-12-09 rm-578.
I later found out that the iPhone 4 was purchased from Orange Swisszerland.
This phone was replaced in Covent Gardens and worked fine with orange UK for a few days (hence i purchased it). It then asked for compatible sim. now neither orang UK or Swiss sims work and i cannot unlock it too, because each party says that the iPhone is not their.
Can Apple make an app or an update that makes you insert your password to turn your phone off? This can deal with theft of iPhones because people take or find a iPhone, the first thing they do is turn the phone off.
My cousin gave me his iphone. I already change the apple id but everytime a new update. They ask for my cousin's id. Even for the app that it use my id to download.
Bought iPhone 3GS from eBay listed as factory unlocked. I activated it with ATT sim, upgraded to 5.1.1 and was able to use with TMobile sim. Seems to be factory unlocked, right ? But if I wipe/deactivate iPhone and then try to activate again it asks for ATT sim for activation. Wont activate with TMobile SIM. Did I buy factory unlocked ?
Every once in a while it asks for a password for a no1sonic64fan@aim.com email that I've never heard about! It is not from anyone in my contacts or anyone I know for that matter! Is it a virus or what? How to I get it to stop? My iTunes account and iCloud account are correct, but this random email every once in a while pops up!
So I have moved into a new apartment, and when my iPhone finds the router and tries to log on, it asks for a username AND a password. When I use my Macbook, it just asks for a password, which I enter and get no further problems with. Â
I have tried entering the router's details manually using the 'Other' feature in the Wifi settings, and still cannot log on (either with WPA or WPA2).Â
Recently a customer started tethering his iPhone to his laptop and anytime outside of the domain enviroment,he gets an apns certificate log-in prompt for outlook. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated since I don't know, 1. how to deal with this, 2.
After i updated my iphone it askes me "please insert suported sim that comes with the phone'' but i don't have the sim card that comes with this phone.
I have recently purchased a 9780 which I was told it was unlocked but when I put my sim in it asks for a MEP code. What is and how can I get one to enable me to use Fone.
I've about had it with having email on 2 devices.I use Gmail and I have my laptop and my iPhone. I'd like to receive a copy of the email on BOTH devices every time I receive one and then DELETE the email FROM THE SERVER when I delete a message.
I'm tired of going 2 weeks without touching my iPhone and then the next time I pick it up I have 50 messages, all of which I have read and deleted on my Mac.Why can't anything be as easy as Apple's approach? I'm gritting my teach and on the verge of paying for mobileme.
I got my phone on friday last week and since the it restarted every morning at random time. It turns off and back on, I didn't loose any files, but the sim card is blocked and people can't call me then. I have the newest software, use the original charger, battery etc. Phone turns off without any massage, vibration or else, when it turns on I get the default starting screen and the phone asks me for pin and works normally afterwards.
My friend had his Galaxy S5 set to unlock with a fingerprint, however yesterday the strangest thing happened. It no longer asks for a fingerprint, it goes directly to the alternate password. I would like to clarify again that its not that it does not accept his prints like happens to a lot of people, it simply does not give the choice to use them. Now I don't know if he forgot his password or the phone wont accept it (like he claims) but he can't use the alternate password to log into the phone. He is completely locked out. As a last case resort I will back up whatever I can using my computer and reset it to factory defaults.
As a final note I've tried the google device manager to reset the password, his S5 does not appear on his account. I expect that is because it is not a gmail account but a school account using google apps.
Since the 5.5.1 update that I made yesterday, my Xperia Z2Â is not asking for the PIN number anymore, so I can't send messages, make calls etc.. I removed the SIM then replaced it, but it's not working. Â Plus, when I go to the settings / security, I can access to my SIM settings, but it's "in grey", I can't clic on it.
What do you guys use to get push IMAP on your iPhone (probably via an Exchange service)?Does anyone have any experience with NuevaSync.com?Anyone use anything different?
I just got an iPhone and am trying to set up my Yahoo email account. I've tried multiple times and failed. The error message I'm receiving is "The IMAP server '[url].." is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the "Incoming Mail Server Field".
I didn't have to enter any info for the incoming mail server (nor is there an option for it). Also, my phone's WiFi is working so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I am only able to set up my personal emails accounts as IMAP on my iphone. any ideas why? Using IMAP results in my e-mail messages that were first downloaded to my iphone, not to also download to mac mail on my laptop. I need all my messages to come to my laptop...
The phone says you can configure email for most accounts in a few steps . So I typed my user name and password and this is what I get Setup Could Not Finish, Incorrect username or passord. I tried this tons of times, I am entering it all correct.
I have a droid3 and every time I try to download anything it now ask me to do it over a wifi connection, this started 2 days ago. How do I make it start using the phone to download, and it doesn't matter the size of file.
