Mac Book Pro mail vs Powerbook mail

I have a new Mac Book Pro C2D and mail was apparently working fine, but I've noticed more and more that I'm not receiving some emails.
I have my old Powerbook running next to it and all the email are being received on the Powerbook, but the C2D is being selective on which emails it receives.
They are set up exactly the same????
Any ideas.

I'm using .Mac (which seems to be the problem account) and Gmail, which is delivered into my Mac Mail account (usually duplicating the same email twice)?

  • Mac Book Pro Mail App problem

    I have a 3 month old MacBook Pro that has developed in the last 3 days a strange problem within Mac Mail app.  When I send or reply to a email message it shows up in the email thread or sent messages folder as a COMPLETELY different email to an entirely different address.  The incorrect messages/addressees that appear are from emails sent several years ago.  It appears that my emails are being received normally to the recipients (what I actually sent is received,  instead of what is appearing to me as what I sent), but as the thread continues or new messages are exchanged the thread is meaningless and garbled. 
    Running Mountain Lion
    I've tested sending email through both my Comcast server and iCloud.  Same problem either way.  Virus, malware........??  THanks for any suggestions

    Hi kezart,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  Try rebuilding the mailboxes and see if that helps:

  • Mac book pro mail gmail outgoing offline

    suddenly i could not longer send email messages through apple mail account (my gmail account is linked).  can receive messages, but out going messages sit in the out box.  i can send messages with my gmail account if i go in through the web browser.  i checked my mail account and it says that outgoing gmail is offline.  how did this happen and how do i fix it?

    This happens often with Mac Mail.app. The only suggestion I have is switch to any other mail program available for OS X, there are several. Mail.app in my opinion is the worst mail clients ever.

  • Safari, mail and app store won't open (mac book pro, lion)

    hello,
    my brother can't open safari, mail or the mac app store on his mac book pro running ios lion.
    until yesterday he had no problems but today it doesn't work.
    when he tries to open one of these programms they jump around at the dashboard infinitely.
    his internet connection works, he can use skype and the itunes store without a problem.
    what can he do to fix this?

    You might want to re-post this in the MacBook Pro Discussions. PowerBooks (there's no such thing as a PowerBook Pro!) can't run OSX 10.6 or 10.7.
    However while we're here, without any personal knowledge of this issue, I would suggest that if you haven't done it already the first thing to try would be to
    repair permissions.

    You don't need iDVD unless you are going to make DVDs. If you are just trying to share files, iDVD won't help you at all.
    What you want to do is in iMovie, choose File/Share/File, and export that way. It creates an .mp4 file that should be readable on Macs or Windows.
    You could also File/Share/YouTube if you don't mind posting them to YouTube, because of course YouTube videos are watchable by any Mac or Windows computer made in the last 10 years.

  • How do set up your hotmail account on a mac book pro? I have it set up so I get mail but on my hotmail account I have lot of separate folders. They don't show up on my mac, they do on my iPhone and iPad.

    How do set up your hotmail account on a mac book pro properly? I have it set up so I get mail but on my hotmail account I have lot of separate folders to save messages in(for example :- bank, skyp, work, Facebook, apple, ect...). They don't show up on my mac. I also have an iPhone and iPad, there is no issue here when I set those up. I automatically got my separate folders. Anybody have any idea or encountered the same problem?

    I'm not gonna lie, I actually have no idea if its pop or imap. Do you know where you can check and if it can be changed?
    Hotmail on a Mac is POP3 only, you will only get the basic folders (inbox, sent, trash etc) and it will not sync with other devices.
    And now I post this I see other replies, so this is redundant. !!

  • HT204380 i have a mac book pro and a i-pad 2. both of the devices have the same apple id and same mailing adress. if i want to make a face-time call from my mac book to i-pad 2. how can i do that?

    i have a mac book pro and a i-pad 2. both of the devices have the same apple id and same mailing adress. if i want to make a face-time call from my mac book to i-pad 2. how can i do that?

    You have to add another email address on one of the two devices that you can use as the "You can be reached for FaceTime at" contact address and then remove/uncheck the Apple ID email address as the contact address on that device. The way you are currently setup is like to trying to call yourself on your on phone - from your own phone.
    Using the iPad as the example go to Settings>FaceTime>You can be reached for FaceTime at>Add another email address. Then add a working email address in the next window. Apple will verify the email. Go to the inbox of that email account, read and respond to Apple's email in order to complete the verification process.
    Go back to Settings>FaceTime>Uncheck the Apple ID email address and make sure that the new email address is checked/selected (you will see it being verified again) and that new email address will be your contact address for the iPad.

  • HT202663 each time I go to mail it asks me to join a wireless network. I choose the one I have and dont know why I dont stay connected. I took my mac book pro to vermont and joined the network at my house there, when I got back to ny I joined here but it

    my mac book pro would connect automatically to my wireless network in ny. then I went to vermont with my computer and connected to my wireless network there. when I got back to ny I changed it back to my wireless connection here but it wont stay connected. each time i go on mail it asks me to join a network. it hink i did all the right steps but it wont stay joined.

    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take all the applicable steps in this support article.  
    Step 2
    If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 3
    If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
    From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
    If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it.
    Step 4
    This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 6
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

  • My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

    Good to know that, but what can I do to get the mail and contacts downloaded from Icloud onto my Iphone?  I am told that the password needs to be reset and I have erased and reset it 3x's already? Should I Restore All Settings or Restore Network Settings or will that result in a situation where I have to have it re-unlocked again? GRACIAS!

  • Mail app on mac book pro lost?!

    I accidentally deleted the mail app on my mac book pro and i don't have my installation disk with me. I searched for it via spotlight and found nothing.
    How can I get t back?
    Thank you
    J

    1. get rid of junk like appcleaner. They cause more problems than they claim to solve.
    "so i deleted it but usually it should be deleted seeing as I have a protection on default apps."
    What does that mean?
    What OS did your MacBook Pro come with? You should be able to extract the Mail.app from the installer disk. So provide the model MBP you have and what OS was installed when you bought it.
