Lion mail for windows

Howdy,
I'm curious if anyone has any advice on how to achieve a Mac OS Lion similar look/functionality in a windows mail application. I want a stand alone application for windows 7but all the email programs I find are really cluttered and in some cases hideous. Although this seems like a stretch, I thought I'd at least check. Also hopefully I posted this in the correct area. It seemed to be the most accurate.
Thanks.

Well,  I'm not sure what you 've tried, but I use Thunderbird for my email client on MacOS as well as Windows. In fact, when my MacBook Pro boots into BootCamp, the Tunderbird instance there uses the same folder tree as the instance which is running under MacOS, that way the local folders are always in sync with the last run on the other OS...

  • MBA lion Mail issue: window disappears randomly

    hello:
    Having some MBA 13' mail issues:
    1) mail window will disappear (only using cmd+0 shortcut will bring it back - or going to window>message viewer) randomly without any reason
    2) starting up a new email or new note then closing this note or email will close the entire message viewer window...why?
    3) emails deleted within the 'inbox' section will not delete in the Gmail section (setup as IMAP, with Gmail defaults)
    I am a little concerned with 1 & 2 becuase these are huge user experience issues, it is the most frustrating thing to have to continually use the short cut to open up a window which should not have disappeared in the first place!!
    any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

    Hi Fred
    I've got the same issue. It seems to happen randomly but so annoying when it does. Upgrading to Mountain Lion hasn't helped and I've changed my keyboard and reset all the short-cuts to the default settings and still it happens in Mail and Microsoft Outlook for Mac when I'm typing a mail.
    Did you find a solution?

  • Apple Mail for Windows

    Hello, i recently switched to iPhone and i want to know how can i sync my new apple contacts with my PC.
    Is there any way to use Apple Mail on a windows machine?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Alin

    To sync your contacts, you will need to have Outlook 2007 or newer installed.  If you do, you can sync your iCloud mail, contacts, calendars and tasks with Outlook as outlined here: https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.
    If you don't have Outlook, you can add your iCloud email account to your Windows mail client using these settings: iCloud: Mail server settings for email clients and access your other iCloud data from iCloud.com.

    Hi lockjod,
    If you haven't changed any settings, it is possible that you have outdated settings.

  • I cannot ajust Apple Mail on Windows,

    Hello,
    I would send mails from Apple Mail on Windows, that seem to be sent from anther account (xxx@gmail  for example).
    But I cannot enroll an account (like [email protected]) for Apple Mail through Windows, as it is possible in Mail through MacOS.
    Sorry for my rough English...
    Who can Help me .
    Thank You.

    Sure, there is no Apple Mail for Windows, but Windows users can log onto the internet : https://www.icloud.com/#mail ; and recover on this web site mails from thir account at Gmail or other...
    No they can not, iCloud does not transport or store other providers email, to get your gmail you would go to www.gmail.com.
    On Apple Mail (Mac or iPhone...), you can enroll your account @gmail (or other) then import your mails from Gmail to Mail (icloud) ; So you can recover on Mail messages aérrived on Gmail account (or other). And also you can send messages that seem to be sent from this other account.
    When you log onto the internet : https://www.icloud.com/#mail ( from a PC / Windows ) you can not  enroll a new account (gmail or other) ; and so you cannot sent any mails that seems to be sent from your
    Gmail address (as you can do on Mail ).
    Is there a way to do this ? (the same thing on icloud/Mail as on Mac/Mail : to send mails that seem to be sent from your gmail account, or other)
    Thank you.

    Your iPhone and your iPad (if you have one) are clients, they can be connected to multiple email systems (gmail/icloud/yahoo etc). The website is only 1 email system, it is the iCloud system, Gmail and others have their own websites. If you use Outlook on your PC for email you can get any mail you want, because, just like your phone, it is a client.

  • For all like me who have been fooled by rss disapearing in Mountain Lion Mail

    I have read lots of threads regarding the discontinued support of RSS feeds in Mountain Lion Mail, but unfortunately, after I have installed Moutain Lion (I am really angry with Apple not to have communicate on this point and to have discover it at the end of the install!).
    So, after reading a lot on the subject, here's what I have made to get back everything I needed.
    First, I wanted to get all my saved articles back. For this I have gone in ~Library>Mail>V2>RSS> (you have to show hidden files) Here you have the list of your old rss mailboxes. Select the ones you want to restore and drop them into a folder that's not hidden (in a folder on your desktop for example) because you won't be able to see this folder in the file selection window in the next step.
    Then go to Mail->File->Import mailboxes
    Select "Apple Mail". Then go to the folder previously created and select all the .mbox files you moved in.
    Now you will have a new mail box with all imported subfolders and alle your saved articles. You can then rearrange them as you like.
    Now, to renew your feeds subscriptions, you have no other choice than to use another rss app. And to find all your feeds links, go to ~Library>Mail>V2>RSS> or the folder previously created and in each .mbox open the info.plist file. In each file look for the string in front of "RSSFeedURLString", double click on it and copy and paste it in your new rss reader.
    It's not a clean solution, it's quite long (mainly for the import of rss feeds in the new reader), it forces to have old saved articles in mail and new ones in the new app, but that's the only solution I have found.
    If anyone has a better one, I think lots of us will appreciate.
    PS: please accept my apologies if everything is not clear, as English is not my mother tongue

  • Shortcut for changing "from" field in Lion Mail?

    I manage a number of email accounts from Mail, and frequently need to send messages from one account, and then another account, and then another account ... In Snow Leopard, I enjoyed creating shortcuts to change the "from" field of an outgoing message.  For example, in the keyboard system preferences pane, I assigned the command "My Name <[email protected]>" the shortcut of "SHIFT+CMD+X".  That way, while writing an email, if I noticed that it was about to send from the wrong account, I'd just hit the keystroke instead of grabbing my mouse.  Mail apparently knew what I was doing, because on the drop-down tab for "From", each of my mail accounts also showed the custom assigned shortcut.
    This ability seems blocked in Lion.  Whenever I try to re-create these shortcuts in the preferences / application-shortcuts pane, they won't work!  What's worse, whenever I quite and re-open System Preferences, I find that my shortcuts have been re-assigned an extra open-bracket, such as: ">My Name <[email protected]>".
    Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?  Is it possible to re-create these shortcuts in Lion Mail?

    So Entourage can go to the previous message?  How do you do that?
    I can't stand that Mail always goes to the next newest message after deleting.
    Every other email program I've ever seen (including Entourage - see below) can do this.  Why can't Apple?  I don't want to touch the mouse most of the time because it really slows down work to move ones hands back and forth.   I did a quick web search and found these shortcuts for all the major programs.  If you know of any other program besides Apple Mail that doesn't have this, let me know.
    Until then, if Outlook, Outlook Express, Entourage, Sparrow, Postbox, and Thunderbird have had this, what's Apple's problem adding it?

  • How can I import Outlook for Mac mail into Lion Mail?

    How can I import mail from Outlook for Mac into Lion Mail?

    It is not Outlook that needs to be sync'd; it is the Exchange Server.  Find out from the System Administrator of the Exchange Server the EXTERNAL name and use that to setup a new mail account in Lion Mail.  I highlight the "external" because the URL used for Window's Outlook Clients will not work.  Try the webmail URL first.

  • Jabber for windows can't play voice mail

    hello everyone....
    i config jabber with Unity Connection
    now i can receive a voice mail form jabber ,all is right ..but i can't play it
    if i login the voice mail i can hear the voice mail......only can't play form jabber ...
    my jabber client is 9.2 and CUCM 9.1 Unity Connection 8.62 CUPS 9.1

    We have the same problem with Jabber for Windows 9.2.
    It is interesting that the voicemail feature seems to work for a few seconds when the client starts up. At this time I can see all of voice mails, and the number of unread voicemails shows as a number where the voicemail icon is, but then they all disappear. The voicemail tab then shows the message, "Cisco Jabber is not connected to your voicemail server".
    The 'Call voicemail' button works.
    I understand that our server has been setup for TLS, and that the voicemail tab in Jabber for Windows 9.1.5 works.

  • Setup Lion Server for use in Small Office of Windows & Mac Clients

    I've purchased a Mac Mini Server with Lion Server installed to be used in my small office of less than 10 people.
    The primary goal of this server is to used for File Sharing, bother locally, and remotely.
    In the process of setting up Lion Server I have come across a couple things that I am confused about.
    The first is Open Directory.
    It is my understanding that this is not a necessary setup for the number of users in my office, however I set it up anyway as it appeared to be something that would be useful in the future.
    I have come across information that states Lion Server will not be accessible for Windows users connected via Open Directory. Thus my inclination is to disable the service, and set up my users as local users.
    My question is, for local and remote File Sharing, is there any benefit to using Open Directory?
    The second has to do with Remote Access.
    I am familiar with the notion of a VPN, but I need some clarification as to my remote access options.
    When I go to setup my Server's hostname, I am presented with three options. 1) Host name for local network, 2) Host name for private network, and 3) Host name for Internet.
    I have a domain name for my company's website, so I set up a subdomain (server.mycompany.com), asked my ISP for a Static WAN IP, and pointed thesubdomain to said IP using my DNS. Thus this appears to be option number 3; to allow users to connect to my server from the local network, as well as the Internet.
    My question is, how does this differ from a VPN both in setup, as well as method with which users will access the server? Is there a benefit to one over the other? I would Google this to find an answer, but I can't seem to find a name for what this setup is called.
    I very much appreciate any help you can provide.
    Thanks.

    Well, I spoke too soon.  Lion Server is unstable, awkward and is far too limited to qualify as an Apple product. Even though there's quite a few enhancements, the omissions of technologies in the server 10.6 edition makes this "server" a no go for us.
    Even after installing mysql, I still cannot run a Joomla website on Lion server as it should be done. The wiki's a nice thing to have, but isn't a "professional grade" solution.  There's too much iOS as well.
    With that said, I think it's a shame that apple would put customers through so much frustration and disappointment by releasing such a lame product. In order for us to use Lion server, we would have to be able to run a second (totally separate) instance of Apache. It also appears that server settings are changing to the extent that services become inaccessible as the system is running.

    Boot Camp doesn't install the drivers. You have the drivers on a separate USB device if you followed directions. Once in Windows connect the USB drive with the driver software. It should startup automatically and install the drivers.
    You don't even need to do that. As downloading the drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant can be unreliable, it is better to get the package directly from here:

  • How do I get Windows XP onto my new mac running lion when boot camp only gives me the option for windows 7

    Hi   I have been trying to partition my hard drive on my new Mac so that I can run some windows specific programs and I wanted to use Windows Xp because I beleive it to be suitable for my needs + becuase its now an older OS it's cheaper.
    My version of Mac is running the Lion operating system and when I start up the boot camp assitant I only get the option to install windows 7. If I proceed and put in the XP installer disc I get a message "Installer disc not found- insert disc and wait a few moments".
    The Xp disc is supposed to be a full version- at least thats what the guy who sold it to me claims, anyone any solutions on how to proceed or do I have to buy Windows 7?
    Chris

    With OSX Lion Apple has removed support for Windows XP and Windows Vista from BootCamp.
    That leasves only Windows 7 as a viable option to use.
    You can however use Virtualization apps like the free VirtualBox to install and run XP on your Mac.
    Commercial ones are Parallels and VMWare Fusion.
