Email clients other than Mail or Outlook are not visible to my apps

I have been trying some different mail clients, such as Postbox, Thunderbird, Airmail and others. When I set any of these as the default mail client, apps such as Word and Pages are no longer able to send email from within the app itself. It's as though there is no default mail client.
If I set the default mail client back to Mail or Outlook, sending mail from within apps works perfectly again. Is anyone able to provide some assistance?
Thanks in advance

Hello Edwin.
I'm not aware of any other email clients besides Entourage that is compatible with OS X or Tiger and includes a built in or separate integrated calendar.

Emails in restored mailbox from Time Machine are not visible

I have an IMAC 5.1 with OSX 10.6.8. When I restored a mailbox using Time Machine, the mailbox appears in Apple Mail however no emails are visible even though they are present in the folder in library/mail/mailboxes in Finder. Any suggestions on how I can make the emails visible?
Thanks

I managed to find the solution. In Mail under Mailbox in the header there is a Rebuild button. I pressed it and my emails are now visible.

Setting an email account other than Mail as the default

I do not use Mail or Entourage (or have a .mac account), and I wonder if there's a way to set my own email account as the default for saving a photo directly to an email message. Right now my workaround is very complicated.
Thanks.

kjm914a:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Is your current email account a POP account or is it a web based account? If it's a pop account you can setup Mail as the client for that account and then would have the capability of saving directly to iPhoto as well as emailing directly from iPhoto. You don't need a .Mac account to use Mail.
However, if the account is a web based account I don't think there's any way to save directly to iPhoto. The photos have to be be saved to the HD first before they can be imported into iPhoto.
Happy New Year
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

'Send an email invitation' & 'Select a permission level' options are not visible when clicking "Show Options"

We're using a modified master page, which is 99% identical to the Seattle.master file. However, we are facing some JavaScript issues. This one in particular is affecting the event listener for the "Show Options" link while adding a new user.
If anyone knows what SharePoint OOTB JavaScript functions and/or file is directly linked to this event handler, please share. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Per my knowledge, the "Show More" link use the function as below:
onclick="EnsureScriptParams('foldhyperlink.js', 'ToggleFoldText', '4f7670f8b24440de93663a84177ebd88', 'ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_ctl03__moreDetailsLink', 'Hide options', 'Show options');ShowHideMoreOptions();return false;">

Is it possible to send messg. to other emails (aol) other than mac. users?

Hi.
I'm a novice mac. user and if it's possible to send messeges (yahoo, aol.etc.) other than mac. users using the Mail? If it's possible I need help--if possible, step by step, to set up my Mail. I appreciate it if you can help me.
Thank you.

Hello Louise.
Yes it is possible but if you have a free Yahoo account, Yahoo prevents accessing a free Yahoo account with any email client like the Mail.app for U.S. residents. If you have a paid Yahoo account which I believe costs only $20/year, you can access the account with the Mail.app and the account settings to set up the account in Mail are provided at Yahoo's website.
If you have an AOL email account, check Accessing the AOL Mail System using IMAP & Authenticated SMTP An Unofficial Guide and if you are currently using the AOL program to access your AOL account, you can use the AOL Service Assistant.

Settings for email applications other than MyVerizon

The "new" settings for email applications other than MyVerizon (in my case Thunderbird) does not alow my antivirus program (Avast) to scan incoming mail because of the secure connection setting "SSL".
Solved!

Based on what you posted you failed to check the SSL box.
Here is a link to a thread I created a week ago with definitions that do work for Windows Live Mail:

Mac mail and gmail are not syncing

I just bought my very first mac computer, the MacBook Pro. I set up my Mac Mail to my gmail account. My gmail account won't sync up to my macmail though. All the messages are there as well as my contacts and the mac mail receives new emails when I get them, however they are not synced up. For example, when I delete a message in mac mail, it doesn't delete on my gmail account and vice versa. How do I get it so the two are synced?

I just added Gmail to my Apple Mail and the only thing that I am trying to "fix" is that when I delete an email in Apple Mail, it shows up still in the Gmail inbox with the label "deleted messages" or without the label depending on what settings I use in Apple Mail.
How do I get these messages out of my inbox?
I am having same issue. This is a new development as I don't recall it doing this before. I was using the delete button in mail and this would archive the message (my desired behavior)...
not sure why there aren't moving out of gmail's inbox...is it possible Google is working on something behind the scenes?
Fixed this one issue (at least for my setup)...
It's a little misleading but it's the advanced imap settings in gmail's settings that was throwing me off...
Under the the "expunge" settings
x Immediately expunge messages when I mark them deleted in IMAP
Do not automatically expunge messages
Makes the "delete" button in Mail "archive" the message and move it to "All Mail"
Immediately expunge messages when I mark them deleted in IMAP
x Do not automatically expunge messages
Makes the "delete" button in Mail remove it from the folder in Mail, but not in Gmail, unless it's a message that is expunged from the last visible IMAP folder, then it goes by the second set of settings (archive, trash, delete immediately) that are only available if "do not automatically expunge messages" is chosen...

Try this out... this worked like a charm:
*On a desktop PC, log into your gmail account.
*Click the gear up in the top right corner > Settings
*Click Accounts
*Under "Change Account Settings", click "Other Goole Account Settings"
*Along the left, click "Security"
*Under 2-step verification, click "Manage your application specific passwords"
*It will ask for your usual gmail account password and take you to a page that says "
Authorized Access to your Google Account
*You will see a box to type in something (I just typed in iPad) then click "Generate Password"
*It will generate a random password for you... you will need this password Once in your iPad....
Now...
*Go to your iPhone Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Add Account>Google
*Type in your name, your usual gmail email address and for the password, type in that random one generated on your PC
It should work from there, if not follow what is below!

Mail account folders are not synchronized

Mail account folders are not synchronized. How do I do this?

Ok Istart understing.
There is an issue with icloud Drive, the part called "mail".
I disabled that part and the rules created by experiment were gone.
So I restored my synced rules and smart folders plist in the V2 Maildata folder and all were like before.
So I tried to reactivate the iclodudrive mail part and the problem was again there. The smart folders where gone again and the rules were now mixed with the ones created by experiment.
So I deactivate icloud mail option on my iphone and my ipad, and redone the restore the synched rules and smart folder.
After that all seems to be fine.
Now I have even reactivated the mail icloud option on iphone and ipad.
I suppose is definitely a bug.
I remember that my mac popped up some strange message saying there was a problem with icloud drive.
I will notice if this happen again to see into the log what is telling for real as I suppose that is the cause that messes up my email.

My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID. We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another.

My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID. We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another. Is the cause of this because we share the same Apple ID? Will we have to set up 2 separate primary email addresses to be able to send and receive Tex Messages to one another? Like I said, we share the same email address and woul like to keep it that way to keep up with our email together. Is there a way to by-pass having to set up 2 primary emaill addresses if this is the problem?
Thanks.

go to the settings and turn off imessage
but that don't change the issue that you will never be able to facetime eachtoher
the appleID is really meant as the handle that identify you it was not meant to be shared
but can see that people may want to do not buy apps more then once

Lync 2013 client is deployed but user accounts are not migrated from OCS to Lync 2013 Server - how to open Lync meetings automatically in the Lync Web Plug-in

We have in our enterprise the following scenario:
1 - Lync 2013 client is installed
2 - User accounts are not migrated to Lync 2013 Server, users are using Office Communicator as their main tool
3 - Users receive Lync 2013 meeting requests but when try to access them, Lync 2013 client launches and shows error. Users will need to open the browser and paste the URL to the address bar but this still open
4 - We cannot use the workaround of adding "?SL=1" to the Lync 2013 meeting URL as the user base is large and manual workaround is not accepted
5 - Question: is there any automated way, via egistry key or GPO setting, so that users temporarily (until their accounts are migrated to Lync 2013 server) can bypass Lync 2013 client completely and automatically open all Lync 2013 meetings
on the browser, using Lync Web Plug-in?

Thanks for the response,
First, I should have mentioned clearly that users have Office Communicator 2007 client and Lync 2013 client installed in their machines. Their accounts are not migrated yet to Lync 2013 server.
Second, we are using IE9 and IE10. The issue is that users CAN join Lync 2013 meetings with their browsers but have to paste the URL manually to browser and add "?SL=1" otherwise, if they just click at the "Join Online Meeting" or "Join
Lync Meeting" URL it launches Lync 2013 client which shows error because is not configured yet, as they are using OCS client and migrating slowly to Lync 2013 server.
Is there a Group Policy setting or a registry key from Microsoft that can be turned on to these users machines and make will all Lync meeting requests to be opened in IE browser instead of Lync 2013 client. We need a way to ignore
Lync 2013 client until user accounts are migrated to Lync 2013 Server. Manually typing URLs is not an option in a big organization, can't explain thousands of users of different levels what to do.
We are regretting the decision not to separate Lync 2013 from Office 2013 package we deployed recently. If Lync 2013 is uninstalled then all Lync meeting requests are opened in browser without an issue.

Does anyone know why since upgrading to ML notes are not visible in Time Machine. They used to be part of mail and could be recovered from Time machine but since ML I don't seem to be able to access notes in Time Machine. Any help would be useful.

Mail doesn't support notes. If you use iCloud, you have them in it because Notes is an application

I have iphone 4 and it connect to some wireless networks and some others are not visible while other lphones can find these networks and i tried to restart the phone many times and there is no result, kindly advice

i have iphone 4 and it connect to some wireless networks and some others are not visible while other lphones can find these networks and i tried to restart the phone many times and there is no result, kindly advice

Some updates and clarifications:
1. I already have my 2.4 channel fixed.
2. Wireless network name is 8 alphanumeric characters; no spaces
3. Already using WPA2 security with a 10 alphanumeric key (again, no spaces)
4. I am running Airport Utility 6.0, Mac OS version 10.7.4
I should also say that these problems started happening less than a month ago...prior to that all devices where working normally.
An added update: My two e-readers (nook ST and Kindle 3) are also refusing to connect...perhaps confirming that I have 2.4 GHz issues?
