Why all of a sudden am I having difficulty sending Gmail emails? I get a send error. When I run diagnostics there is a SMTP and IMAP account for Gmail and I am not sure how to fix this.

Hi jodilynnf,
When using Connection Doctor to see what is could be causing the issue, look for the red dots to let you know what is wrong. Then all you have to do is correct that information. You can double click on the section that is giving you issue and it will take you there. Most issues could be just password being entered incorrectly. Take a look at the article below to walk you through troubleshooting issues with Mail.

  • I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this.

    I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this. I only have the one Apple ID and the phone is brand new, purchased directly from Apple.
    When I check on the phone itself (iCloud and App Store settings) the Apple ID is correct. I'm not sure where else to check.
    Whilst setting up the phone, it prompted me to register, which I did. Then when connecting to my laptop through iTunes it prompted me again so I registered again. I even got a confirmation email to the email address associated with my Apple ID that the registration was successful.
    How can I add my iPhone 5s to the list of devices on the correct Apple ID?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

  • I'm not sure how to fix this problem?

    I made my original Apple ID a long time ago, and basically, the e-mail account I had used it with was deleted.  I've made a new Apple ID since.  My i-pod is still connected to the old ID, and I'm not sure how to change it.  I also don't remember the information I had used for the original ID.  My i-pod won't transfer all of my music unless I "authorize the computer" and I can't do that with my new ID becuause it "hasn't been used with the computer" yet.  I have no idea what to do now.  Please help?

  • When I try and open certain apps, it flickers and doesn't open, I am not sure how to fix this.

    When I try and open open a certain app,it won't open and just flickers and won't do anything, does anyone know how to fix this ?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • I am getting a run time error message when I am trying to reinstall itunes and I'm not sure how to fix it. Can someone tell me what I need to do to get itunes back? Thanks!

    I'm not sure how or why this is happening and it has just started...I tried to update and then it would not allow me to open the file at all giving me a runtime error message and multiple windows (because of the help feature). It has been successfully reinstalled but I'm still getting the error message...what do I do?

    Hello, MommaLloyd24. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'.  Not sure how to fix this.

    When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'.
    I'm not sure what to do, I did not recieve a cd with my mac to boot it up (I ordered it online).
    Also I can't find my harware serial number (I've tried many times to input what I thought it may be from my receipt).  I saw that I need this number to contact apple support, my 90 day complimentary support is still valid so I wish to contact them.
    I don't know much about apple products as this is my first apple computer so any information is helpful.

    Hold down the Alt/Option-key at startup of your iMac to get the Boot Selection screen.
    From that choose to boot into OSX.
    Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and reset your OSX to be the default.
    The new iMacs have OSX 10.7 Lion preinstalled and don't come with any CD/DVD anymore.
    Instead OSX Lion includes a new feature called "Lion Recovery".

  • I was working on a project a few days ago and now I'm not getting any audio or visuals out of it. In the project file the screen went grey. Not sure how to fix this. I'm new to iMovie, but the program seems easy to use and my Mac is new. Any help?

    I used to use Movie Maker and it would be able to handle lots of file uploads and big projects. I figure iMovie can do the same since it's newer and it's on my iMac. I was working on a project for a few months, it was working fine up until about a few days ago when the project file just stopped working. Not getting any audio or visuals and the screen went grey. I hope to not lose the project file as I've spent a lot of time on it. The project will still show up in iMovie, but it won't play. Other project files will, but this one won't for some reason. It's my first time using this program and I assumed it would be fine, but now it's causing me big problems. Anyone else run into a similar problem?

    But it is I jsut can sync, back up files, or anything becuase its stuck at this screene and wont do execute when i click either of those button

  • My WiFi is down and says ´´No Hardware Installed´´ and I´m not sure how to fix it. I´ve tried shutting it down and pressing P, R, Command, Option, but it only works sometimes, and as a temporary fix. What do I do?

    My WiFi is down and the icon states ´´No Hardware Installed´´. Sometimes the WiFi will come back, but it will shut me out after an hour or two. I´ve tried shutting it down and pressing P, R, Option, Command while turning it on, but it only sometimes works and is a temporary fix. I´m studying abroad and there aren´t apple stores near me. I went in to one before I left, and thought the tech employee had fixed it, but I started to have the same problem here. How can I fix this?

    This worked and solved the problem.
    Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    If this does not help, contact Apple.
    Best.

  • Error says msvcr80.dll and I do not know how to fix this

    I do not know how to download iTunes for Windows because an error saying that I do not have msvcr80.dll continues to pop up.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • My Mac is set to print in grayscale by default and I am not sure how to change this.  The print setup defaults to Colorsync under Color Management and Colorsync is stuck on Mode "Gray"

    My Mac can print color if I change from Colorsync to "in printer" or if I manually change the colorsync profile, but this has to be done every print and is quite time consuming.  Can someone help me change the default Colorsync profile or change Color Mangement to default to "in printer"?  After 3 days of this I am already tired of this,  And before it is asked I do not know what has changed to cause this.  Wednesday was the first time I had needed to print on this particular Mac since March and it was already stuck in grayscale.

    You can select your preferred set of printing perferences and "Save as Default".
    Or you can blow it all away and "Reset the Printing System" which takes you back to NO printers installed, and add the Printers back in.
    To reset the printing system (if necessary)
    Control-click or right-click a print queue in the "Printers" pane.
    Choose "Reset printing system..." from the contextual menu.
    Click "OK" in the "Are you sure..." confirmation sheet
    This un-installs all printers. You can then add them back in one at a time, and they should come in with default settings.

    at first, I was using my laptop and it started freezing and not responding. So I shut it down and then the described situation started happening as oppose to the apple symbol and starting if the laptop. After five to ten minutes, it turns off automatically. I've repeatedly tried restarting.
    how can I fix it? Or should I go to a computer repair company?
