iPad e-mail problem

[mlockerm]

Archangel ... Saw your tip. Worked great and fixed the problem. Thanks

It's great that you have a solution. Hopefully you won't have to reset again, I've been an iPad owner for a year and never had to reset (using your method). Occasionally I hold the on/off button until the slider appears to restart the iPad but that's all as it normally fixes any issues, even rarer, I hold the on/off and home buttons until the Apple logo appears but it's been months since I had to do that.

Penelope, when you RESET your iPad to fix you email issues did you lose all your saved things like ebooks, photos, etc?

If you choose Reset All Settings, it will have no effect on your books or photos. If you choose Erase All Contents and Settings, it will wipe out everything on your iPad.

One of my email accounts was failing to send emails earlier (but was receiving them). A password prompt popped up a couple of times, so I entered my password, but that didn't help.

So I turned my iPad off and restarted it (Apple logo shows on restart). That didn't work.

So I deleted the account from my email and added it back immediately. The sending function now works fine again.

That happens every once in a great while -- email fail. I usually run thru those troubleshooting steps, and everything gets back on track. I've yet to have to reset my settings.

I am having no luck resolving my problem. Emails are received fine,but will not send. I get a message there is no password and to go to settings and add one. This is happening on both my email accounts. They used to work fine. I have a first generation iPad running 5.1.1. I have deleted and re-entered the accounts in mail settings completely, shutting down the iPad power before and after. I. Heckled and my iMac still sends mail with the same information. I don't know what I can do next.

I had the same problem and had to contact Verizon, my ISP, to reset all my passwords. I worked with the Genius Bar in the store first, and all they could do is recognize the problem as Verizon's. And it was. It is tooooop frustrating. All the nonsense about PW and then it doesn't work.

I have a Verizon Fios account, but I also have a Cbeyond account. Both are doing the exact same thing. For now, I've deleted both accounts from my iPad in frustration. I'm wondering if my early generation iPad, and thus lower OS could be part of the problem. Apple used to be so much better about not abandoning its earlier products. They make a superior machine that costs considerably more and lasts much longer. Respect that and support earlier versions!

Dear partners, I have difficulty linking my IPAD to my yahoo email account. Please, any help?

I'm having the same type of problem but it just happened after upgrading to IOS6 last night. I am receiving Yahoo mail on my IPhone that is not appearing on my IPad. I changed the DSM on the Settings after reading that suggestion in an Apple forum but it hasn't made any difference. I've done a hard shut-off with no change. What suggestions does anyone have to solve this dilemma?
