Troubleshooting

How to fix IONOS not working

IONOS is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach ionos.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check IONOS status page

    Open the official status page to see if problem reports for the service are above their usual level. If they are, wait and retry later; if they are not, the fault is likely local to your device or network.

  2. Try IONOS on mobile data

    Turn off Wi-Fi on your phone and load the site over mobile data, or connect your computer to a phone hotspot. If the service works there, your router or local firewall is the problem; restart the router and check any firewall rules for the app or browser.

  3. Flush DNS for IONOS

    On Windows, open Command Prompt as administrator and run ipconfig /flushdns. On macOS, run sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder in Terminal. After either command, retry the service.

  4. Contact IONOS help with details

    If the service still fails for you alone, open the help centre and start a support request. Include the exact error message, the time you saw it, the device and browser you used, and what you already tried; that saves a round trip.

While IONOS is down: what to use instead

  • Cloudflare Use it for DNS and web traffic if your domain is already connected there and the IONOS control panel is unavailable.
  • Microsoft 365 Use Outlook and Microsoft 365 for email and calendars if your mailbox is already set up there.
  • Google Workspace Use Gmail and Google Workspace for email and shared files if your organization already uses those accounts.
  • AWS Use an existing AWS deployment to keep a website or app available while IONOS hosting is offline.
Your device

Fix IONOS on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

IONOS on Windows

Fix
Clear your web browser's cache and flush your Windows DNS cache to resolve connection issues to the IONOS Control Panel. If you are using IONOS email, verify your security and port settings in your mail client.
Check
Check if the official IONOS status page reports any active outages affecting your region. You can also try to access the IONOS login page using an incognito browser window to rule out local profile issues.
Command Prompt
ping ionos.comTest whether IONOS's servers reply
nslookup ionos.comCheck that IONOS's DNS resolves
tracert ionos.comTrace where the connection drops
ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

IONOS on Mac

Fix
Clear your browser cache in Safari or Chrome, or renew your DHCP lease in macOS System Settings if the IONOS site fails to load. If using Apple Mail with IONOS, ensure your incoming and outgoing server configurations are correct.
Check
Verify if the IONOS status page indicates any server disruptions. You can also use a different browser to see if the IONOS dashboard loads.
Terminal
ping -c 4 ionos.comTest whether IONOS's servers reply
nslookup ionos.comCheck that IONOS's DNS resolves
traceroute ionos.comTrace where the connection drops
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

IONOS on Android

Fix
Clear the cache and data for the IONOS Mobile App or your mobile browser from your Android settings. If you are using a VPN, temporarily disable it to connect to IONOS services.
Check
Check the Google Play Store to ensure the IONOS app is updated to the latest version. You can also test your connection by trying to load the IONOS login page on both Wi-Fi and mobile data.

IONOS on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Clear Safari's history and website data, or reinstall the IONOS app from the App Store if it crashes. Ensure that cellular data access is enabled for the IONOS app in your iOS settings.
Check
Check if the IONOS app has any pending updates in the App Store. Try opening the IONOS website in a private Safari tab to determine if the issue is app-specific.
Same time

Problems at the same time as IONOS

Since 6 October, IONOS's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

A spike is a sharp rise in problem reports from users, as the live pages showed it. Times are Central European time.

About

What happens when IONOS goes down

IONOS is a web hosting and cloud provider for small businesses and developers. An outage interrupts the sites you publish, the mail you send and receive, the domains that route visitors to your site and the control panel you use to manage all of it.

When trouble hits, the first sign is often the control panel or webmail login hanging, while a site that is already cached may still load. Hosted sites then return server errors or time out, and mail clients fail to connect to IMAP or SMTP, so messages queue instead of arriving. DNS failures make your domain resolve slowly or not at all. Problems are often partial, with one region or one service failing while other parts keep working, so check the official status page and help centre before you change anything.

Questions

IONOS FAQ

Is IONOS down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level. If that level is normal, the issue may sit on your side; check the official status page for any posted incident. Test another network and another device, then try opening a site you do not host with IONOS to see if your connection is the common factor.

Why does my IONOS email keep asking for my password?

Mail clients often lose the saved password after a server change, and some apps need an app password instead of your main account password. Sign in to webmail first. If that works, update the password in Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, or the IONOS Mail app; if webmail also rejects you, reset the password from the account login page and wait a few minutes before trying again.

Why does my IONOS website show a 500 error while the control panel works?

A 500 error usually comes from the site's PHP or database layer rather than the hosting account itself. The control panel loading means the account is reachable. Check recent plugin or theme changes in WordPress, then restore a backup or switch to a default theme if the error started after an update.

Why is my IONOS domain still pointing to the old site after I changed the DNS?

DNS changes move through resolvers at different speeds, and your device or router may hold a cached copy for longer than expected. Flush your DNS cache. If the old page still appears, test the domain on a phone with mobile data and check the control panel for a wrong A record or CNAME target.

Why does the IONOS app log me out or fail to load my invoices?

The app needs a stable session, so a weak connection or an outdated app version can drop you back to the login screen. Update the app. If the browser works but the app does not, clear the app cache or reinstall it; if the browser also fails, the account or billing service may be the problem.

How we track IONOS

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for IONOS, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for IONOS, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from IONOS's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
