I had the same prob. yesterday although my computer could get them. I went to a rec center with the Ipad, got my emails and now I'm getting them, go figure. You might go to the Ipad club Tues. at Colony, they are so helpful with questions like yours

I've been having a problem, too. Have been talking to Centurylink for about 3 days. Today I forwarded an error message to the Postmaster at Centurylink that my friend gets when she tries to email me. I get some emails but fewer than normal. They are checking into it.

Ever since iOS 8, I encounter periods with my iPad where it appears my internet connection is lost, even though my phone and computer still are connected. I have to go to Settings and shut off wifi, then turn it right back on and everything's fine. Happens sporadically.

My Ipad occasionally loses its wifi connection, altho everything else is still connected. Eventually it comes back but I don't know why or how to make it connect.

Mikeod, you are right about the iOS8 - I'm sorry I updated. My iPad freezes up, loses connection, slows down at times. Very frustrating. I think I finally fixed my TOTV - had "paper clips" all over the place. I must have gone back to an old setting through links, options, and defaults. I no longer have the green and brown background but that's good because that is what was messed up.

I also downloaded the new operating system. I'm sorry I did. I have more problems than I ever had before.

Sorry for your problems Tommy and Mikeod, but this is a good warning for those of us considering downloading the new operating system.
I've been wondering about downloading the new system because it is offered every time I log onto my iPad.
I don't understand why new operating systems have so many bugs.
