My provider is BT so do I need to change my settings or something ? .
My provider is BT so do I need to change my settings or something ? .
I have a Btinternet account and it works ok - what settings are you using ?
When you say setting what do you mean, sorry but a bit of a novice when it comes to the connections, I can tell you that I have a wireless network setup at home I run my iPad of my home broadband network,but it is frustrating the he'll out of me not sure what to do.
The account's settings on the iPad : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and tapping the account on the right-hand side. How did you set up the email accound on the iPad - did you do it manually by typing in all the details on the iPad, or did you sync the account's settings via iTunes on your computer ?
Also have you been able to receive emails to the account on the iPad ?
Yes I synced it with iTunes first upon first setup, I didn't do it manually and yes can receive emails no problem,just sending them I can't do,do you know how I can,or will I have to ring my provider? Thank you.
I set up my Btinternet account manually as a Yahoo account (as Btinternet is Yahoo based). Is yours Btinternet ? The settings that I've got are :
Name : my name
Address : myname@btinternet.com
Password : ...
Description : my name
And that was all I needed to set up, as it's Yahoo based it'a able to use the Yahoo default outgoing settings.
Excellent,just done it through yahoo manually and they have sent,shall I delete the other account as surely I don't need two? Thank you for your help.
🙂 Yes you might as well delete it, there's no need having an unnecessary (and not working properly) account on the iPad - apart from anything else you might accidentally select it in the future and then try to send emails from it.
Done it thank you very much.
Why cant I send emails on my iPad 2.
