Push email from AOL not working since IOS7.1 update?

Same Problem here since some days. But I don't have 7.1 but 7.04 on all devices, so it's not an 7.1 problem.

Have tried to restore my iPad mini running iOS 7.1.1 from a backup. AOL Push email was working correctly at the time I backed up the iPad. Still no luck. AOL must have changed something to break the feature.

I have also tried:

- Hard reboot of the ipad

- Deleting and adding back the accounts

I notice that if I toggle the Push setting, under Settings, Mail Contacts Calendar, Fetch New Data, that my ipad will generate notifications of new mail pending in the account. However, this is a one time fix only. After that no more notifications.

Pushes seemed to work fine for me up until this past weekend. I have iOS 7.1.1. Is it possible this is just an intermittent problem, or has anyone been having this problem since the iOS 7.1.1 release?

Yes, it was this past Thursday, 5/1/14, when I noticed that AOL push stopped working. Push notifications for iCloud email still working for me. I don't think this issue is iOs 7.1.1 related for this reason. Am thinking its on the AOL side since restoring my backup from the time when push was working didn't fix the situation.

I have to say that this is THE MOST FRUSTRATING this that can happen as I need my phone to puch e-mail from all my accounts and for it NOT to do this as a result of the update makes my phone a glorified brick! I did what the other posters suggested and nothing works......WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO APPLE???

Actually it is happening on ALL e-mail accounts as my AOL, Gmail and Exchange mail is affected.

Gmail hasn't supported push on iOS devices since, I believe, last January unless you have the Gmail app.

Sure they have! I have had my iPhone since Jan and my gmail (as a gmail e-mail account) has always pushed to my iPhone!

Gmail does NOT push to iPhone, UNLESS it's setup as an exchange account.

No. My gmail is setup as a SMTP mail server and worked like a charm UNTIL the software update.

That has nothing to do with being Push or not.

I think you need to check your mail settings - gmail should be fetching. You might not have it set.

Umm..no it isn't. The SMTP server is the server(s) at Google that send every gmail users emails. They do not reside on your phone therefore have nothing to do with push being enabled or not.

You are correct as let me allign the termonology. All my e-mail accounts are set to "Fetch New Data" via a "push" (where push means the data will push to the iPhone from the server where possible), EXCEPT for Gmail which is a "Fetch" (polling every 15 min). Now with that said; this all worked like a charm BEFORE the software update. Now none of my e-mail accounts will "Fetch" via a push or "Fetch" every 15 min for gmail. You have to go to the email account and drag down to update in order to get new mail.
