iOS 8 Exchange Email no longer Pushes

Yes I have this issue myself and at customer sites. Email will push on WIFI for us however just not on Mobile Data.

I have removed the accounts and added again and this appeared to work however I believe it is sporadic as some email updates others don't when on mobile data.

Apple will need to fix this I imagine.

I did find however changing the password does seem to make push work better - password for the exchange account that is.

hope this helps.

I've got the same problem after iOS 8 upgrade. But only on one device - another was fine. No network settings reset or account deleting helps.

But after network settings reset when I first connect to network some security warning about SSL certificate for Exchange server appears. Due to that I found that in my Exchange account settings I'm using different server name than which is in certificate (we have 2 domain names for the same Exchange server).

When I changed server name in mail account for the same like in SSL certificate of Exchange server then everything starts work perfectly. Looks like apple increased security control in iOS 8.

hope this helps someone :-)

Mine started working after 3 days, I did not do anything.....😕

I FINALLY SOLVED THE PROBLEM.....

I went to settings and selected mail contacts calendars. On the right side, there's a field..."MAIL DAYS TO SYNC. the default was 3 days. I changed it to NO LIMIT (the first option). Now it's working as it did previously. This worked for me

I thought about trying to restore from backup, but it says that find my iphone must be turned off. Well you have to input your icloud password which it comes back that it is incorrect and the verification failed. The password is correct because it is the same one I used to log in here to post this message. Also, I can't do a hard reset because of the sleep/wake button issue.

I was having this same issue with my employer-issued iPhone 4S. I was able to correct the issue by simply going into the Mail settings for the Exchange account, clearing the stored password and then reentering it. After saving, my Exchange email started working again. Hopefully this helps at least someone out there.

Thanks Ninjaneer! Your simple solution worked like a charm.

Worked for me (4S).

Thank you Ninjaneer!

Thank you so much Ninjaneer! Worked for me.

I'm having the same issue with 4 devices (iPad Air, iPad 2, Iphone 5 and iPhone 5s) and with two different Exchange accounts. I try to remove the Exchange account and Reset the Network Settings, but it's not helping. I have contacted Microsoft as well, and hope to get help from them. Apple Support does not know about the problem.

I finally got push notifications to show up by turning Exchange from Push to Fetch, waiting a few minutes, and turning it back to Push.

(I had also followed previously -- without success -- deleting and re-installing the mail account and resetting network settings.

Ninjaneer - This worked for me on both iPhone and iPad - Thanks!

Resetting the password worked for me as well. This first started when my AD account was locked due to too many unsuccessful attempts to login on my Windows 8.1 workstation. Could be related.

EExchange email pushes to my iPhone 5 but wont push to my iPad air. Both devices were updated to iOS 8

Ditto Boxfordapple - had same issues as all above (iPhone 4S - iOS8) - tried deleting and re-adding exchange account (with hard reset in between) but no success. Switching account to Fetch for 5 minutes then changing back to Push fixed it for me. Thanks!
