Why can't I set up outlook on iPad air

First make sure you are connected to a WiFi network. Then check the mail settings so that they match what's listed in this article: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/support/set-up-email-on-apple-iphone-ipad-and- ipod-touch-HA102818554.aspx

iPad Mail

Configuration problems with IMAP e-mail on iOS with a non-standard SSL port.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Help, trying to set up outlook on iPad air, keeps saying server not responding,,,,,

Please clarify. When you say "trying to set up outlook", what exactly do you mean?

Set up the Microsoft Outlook app from the app store?

Set up an account serviced by outlook.com in the native mail app?

Perhaps you mean set up an Exchange account?

Tire's not enough information here to troubleshoot.

You might start by contacting your email provider to make sure you have the correct server information.

From settings, I'm trying to add an outlook/hotmail e-mail account in iPad air. It indicates "Unable to verify account information".

I have tried restarting the iPad, and made sure that I'm connected to wi-fi. Any suggestions?

Thank you, but I already have the app. However, using the app I'm not able to sync my outlook calendar with the iPad.

The question remains, Why isn't it possible to add an outlook account in iPad air?

Ask Microsoft.

You provide little in the way of diagnostic information. You need to state each step you take from the time you power up your ipad.

Pictures would be good too.

hold down the home button and the start/poweron button at the same time

On the forum input panel you will see the camera icon.

click on camera icon.

another window will appear.

Make sure you have selected the from your computer tab.

click on Browse button

An open file panel appears. Select the file.

After selection a file, I have this screen showing.

You will have to click on Insert Image. You may have to scroll down to see Insert Image button.

well it's possible on my ipad2

have you tried to put in the settings manually ?

and your attitude toward many of those who have attempted to point you in the right directing

is counter productive if you wish to receive more help from them.
