iOS 17.2 update issues

I had the same issues on my iPad (iPad Pro 2020 model) after updating to iOS 17.2. My iPhone (15 Pro Max) updated and worked OK.

I went into Settings>Mail,

Went to the impacted account,

Toggled off the "Mail" switch,

Closed out off Settings,

Opened the Mail App (obviously the mail account was no longer present),

Closed the Mail App,

Re-opened Settings>Mail,

Went to the impacted account and toggled on the "Mail" switch,

Closed out of Settings,

Re-opened Mail App, it re-established itself and worked correctly.

Now to see if the fix actually sticks.

We have our phones controlled by BB UEM....we had 400 users update to 17.2, possibly 10%+ were affected by a blank inbox. We deleted the the Apple email app, downloaded it and then went Settings > Mail > Accounts > (select email account that is having trouble) > Toggled Inbox to on. Opened the email app and it worked. I will try just the toggle next time and report back

It works after disable the e-mail icon.

Settings > Mail > Accounts > (select email account that is having trouble) > Toggled Mail to off, closed settings and then rebooted iPhone.

That worked for me!!! I went into Settings and selected my Mail icon. I then selected Accounts and then selected my Exchange account. I then toggled my Mail icon off and rebooted my phone. I then toggled my Mail icon on again and then rebooted my phone again. Everything seems to be working again!

iOS 17.2 is not released yet. Do you mean iOS 17.1.2?

For the mail issues: please remove your account via settings>mail and re-add it. Most of the times this solves the issues at hand

I was having the same issue - updated to iOS 17.2 on iPhone 13 Pro and screen is blank when I open the email app. When I swipe up from the bottom to close the email app, the email screen comes back for a moment, then I touch the email app to go back to it and the email app closes completely.

Went into Settings > Mail > Accounts > (select email account that is having trouble) > Toggled Mail to off, closed settings and rebooted my iPhone and the problem seems to be fixed.

Fingers crossed!

Hi,

I was having the same issue. In my case, apparently this was manifesting as long as I was connected to the internet by mobile data. Once I switched to WI-FI, started to work again. Now is working on mobile data too.

It's definitely 17.2.1

I'm having problems with my work exchange email. First it was only showing emails from 2022, then no emails were showing. I've done all the suggestions and have the emails updated, but now when I tested it by sending an email from my icloud account to my work account the iphone just shows "checking for mail..." I know it was sent because I can see the email on my work computer.

DO NOT Delate the account. I did now i can NOT get it back on the phone. Apple has yet to figure out what to do with this.

Hi, have this issue after update 17.2, roaming stopped working.

Very slow

The iPhone, the Apps Phone, messages, and WhatsApp are very slow if you call, it

takes 30  seconds or more to start, and if you go search for any contact

the same is too slow.

Formatted the iPhone works well. everything when I insert my apple account started everything again

Update to 17.2.1 on both iPad and iPhone, same mail problems. Cannot send email from either device. Spectrum mail servers. Confirmed that webmail works, configuring outgoing mail servers on either iPhone or iPad unsuccessfull thus far. Changes will not stick/save. Getting verification on changes each time without error messages.

Anyone missing the option to change built in mail apps passwords? I needed to update my Exchange email account, and where you normally go under mail, accounts, exchange changing password is missing.

Changing passwords for mail accounts has rarely worked well. It's generally faster to delete the account and add it back.

I’m having issues with my iPad Air 5th generation just randomly turning off the screen and having to log back on. Could be doing anything like checking email, browsing web, YouTube, etc. Sometimes it works fine but only recently noticed this with the new 17.2. Not an issue with screen lock as I turned it off to check and still does it.

I'm so frustrated as one of my email accounts (most important one) is no longer working with the new update. I deleted and was going to reinstall but now it won't let me reinstall. I hope Apple sees all these messages and figures something out very SOON!

All these comments are well-founded, but what are we to do with them??? The problem is not resolved, only complained about, and by what appears to be very knowledgeable individuals, which makes this situation that much worse. Hey Apple, WTF???!
