Can't access exchange email after update to ios 8 on iPad 2

This suggestion worked for me on my iPad 3. Thanks.

This also worked on my iPhone 6! Thank you!

I got the iphone 6 plus yesterday, use the phone heavily for work purposes and I have tried proposed solutions from various posts with no luck.

Emails just won't download.

Not sure what to try now? Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks

For iPhone 6 issue not receiving Exchange emails, might be that you have maxed out the number of devices you are trying to sync with. Removing an old device from within Webmail or your provider's control panel may solve the issue.

I'm having the same problem, and it has nothing to do with the number of devices, as it's the only device I use.

Account sets up with no problem, and I can log into and use OWA with the same credentials on the same device, but Mail App on IOS 8 doesn't work.

Very frustrating.

I have had the same problem connecting to Exchange on the iPhone 6. My 5s connected with no problems at all. After several attempts, I finally got the 6 connected this morning. try this...

Settings -> Mail, contacts, calendars-> Add new account-> Exchange

enter your network info (username, password, etc then domain, server, etc.). Save your settings then shut down and restart your iPhone 6.

I did this over cell service versus wifi- not sure it matters, but I saw others suggested doing this.

Try this, worked for me:

1) Delete email account

2) Delete wifi settings

3) switch on mobile data, if not already on

4) reboot your device

5) configure your email account

6) check that you email is loading

7) configure local wifi again

the key issue here is that you reconfigure with mobile data.

Hi there

I have about 150 iphones here and right now two are doing as described above...

I have tried doing a full erase and starting with a fresh profile and it's still the same... It states that the inbox was updated but no mail shows.

I have tried this users account on another iphone 5S also running ios 8 and I'm getting the same symptom.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

My problem is like this :

i update successfully ios8 on my ipad but after the word " continue" I enter my Apple ID and password to finish setting up iCloud here the problem starts it keeps repeating the same steps

wwhat shall I do the problem seems to be updating iCloud settings

My wife had a similar problem. She uses an @hotmail.com name for her Apple ID, and the phone was stripping '@hotmail.com' off it, and kept trying to set up iCloud with just the username portion. Skipping that step during set up, allowed her to continue, and set up iCloud after the IOS start up.

This solved my issue. I went to the "Mobile Phones" settings in OWA and I had a bunch of old devices. I deleted all of the old iPhones in the Outlook settings, re-added the Exchange account to my new iPhone and it worked like a charm.

Thanks odberlin, your advice fixed my ipad 2

Unbelievable, but I had the same issue with an iPhone 6 that would not connect to my exchange server to save my life, but as soon as I turned off WiFi it connected and synchronized fine. That obviously needs to be fixed but I'm glad I found this work around.

Thank you,
