Works for Cell, Not for Computer

My Gmail address works fine on Droid, but only partially on my Mac. On my cell I can send and receive. On my computer the Gmail only works on send, not on receive. Mail makes it clear that my outgoing message cannot be sent because a connection can not be made with my Gmail server (pop.gmail.com). None the less the email goes through to the intended recipient. Email initiated on my cell addressed to my Gmail address is only received on my cell. Connection Doctor says Outgoing server is connected, and that Incoming is not. Gmail address had previously worked on Mail. It stopped.
I have tried every nuance in the Mail Gmail settings, to no avail. It is impossible to get any guidance from Google, and from Apple Mail for that matter (from previous experience). Any ideas?

Thanks for your thoughtful reply. No improvement. In addition to Gmail address, POP and Smtp addresses now show as unconnected in Connection Doctor.
Verizon set up my Gmail address on my cell, and the Gmail address appeared on my computer without my having to enter any information. Is Google Account password and Gmail password (necessarily, always) the same? How do I access my Gmail settings in Google account?
Would it be simpler for me just to go back to Verizon and have them set up a new Gmail address, cancel the original account and give me in writing all of the information?

I figured it out!
I read a solution for something that sounded similar.
Anyone in similar position:
Open iTunes app on iPhone, and pick an option from bottom, such as music. Then scroll down to bottom of page and where your iTunes ID is, press on it, and pick sign out.
Then return to home screen, and double press home button and press and hold on first icon showing, until a minus symbol appears in the top left of icons present. Press on each minus symbol on each app in turn, until all app icons have disappeared. Then Restart the phone by pressing and hold the home button and the on/off/standby button at top of phone, until the apple symbol appears in centre of blank screen.
Swipe to turn phone fully on and open settings and scroll down to iTunes and apps option and tap that. Pick sign in and put in your apple ID, it will accept it and then return to home screen and open iTunes a you'll find it works fine
Simple really, but some like me won't think f this themselves!
Hope that helps

Managed (mcx) preferences ONLY works for Computer Groups (Lists)

AD Server 2008 R2 with extended schema.
Macs (ML 10.8.5) bound to AD, mcx settings were created for Computer Groups , User Groups (AD security groups), Users
but ONLY Computer Lists settings apply on the local machine (ANY, not just one)
I can see it with mcxquery
Anybody has an idea why that could be & how to sort it, so it DOES apply to user, user groups as well?
Seb

Turned out that my user existed as LOCAL user (same name/pass as AD)
In that way ONLY Machine MCX applies
Renaming local user & login with AD user applies Preferences correctly

Gpresult html report creation not working for computer settings

When I try and run a gpresult. all I get is this at the command prompt (as administrator).
gpresult /h c:\report.html
ERROR:
The error is particulary helpful ;-)
I can successfully create a xml file with /x report.xml . Its a pain to read though.
Also group policy results is also broken. I get the message:
An error occurred while generating report:
An unknown error occurred while the HTML report was being created.
I have read the fixes involving editing install.ins to remove the imported zones. This doesn't fix the issue.
It only occurs when I want the results from the computer settings. User settings work fine.
The environment is Windows 7 with Server 2008 R2 DCs. We have 3 2012 servers where gpresult works when processing computer settings.

Hi,
Before going further, can we run
gpresult/r, gpresult/v or gpresult/z
to see whether we can collect computer settings? Besides, we can go to Event Viewer to see whether some error events were logged and keep us posted.
Best regards,

For those of you with a Windows computer and the iOS device is not syncing or showing up in iTunes. here is a known solution that has been working for tech support!

I know this seems to be an emerging issue ever since the update to iTunes 11.1.4, some iPhones or other iOS devices are not showing up in iTunes or syncing. I'm not sure if Apple really knowns of this issue, but tech support has a (mostly) sure fire way of resolcing this issue. It's only for Windows computers though.
Go to the article http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538 and follow the Section 5 Verify Apple Mobile Device USB driver is installed. When you clik on that section, go to your version of Windows (it seems to be happening mostly across Windows 8) . And then to the section: If Apple iPod, Aple iPhone, or Apple iPad is listed.
The gist of what you need to do:
Windows 8 (since it seems to be the most affected) move your cursor to the upper ight corner of your screen) and click on the Magnifying glass. Type in devmgmt.msc and this should bring up the Device Manager. Onc eyou are in the device manager, look for the "Portable device" or "Universial Serial bus Controller" list, and you should see the "Apple iPhone/iPad/iPod" listed. Onc eyou see it, right click it, choose "Update software driver." Now, IT WILL SAY THE DRIVER IS UPDATED. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. Select "Browse my computer for driver software." Onc eyou choose that, select "Let me pick from a lsit of drivers on my computer." You should see the option "Have Disk." Choose that. Again, I KNOW you do not have a physical disk, but the file we need is already on your computer. After Hard Disk, choose Browse again. Follow this file path to the file we need: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.. In the Driver's folder, you should see the "usbaaple" or "usbappl64" (if you have the 64 bit for Windows). Double click on that file, and hit OK. The file should install, and once it's finished check your iTunes!!! You may want to unplug your device and plug it back it before doing all of this. I REALLY hope this works for you all as well!

How can I change my file extension from m4p to something else? I have had no success being able to play or burn my purchased music. I keep getting error 2122. If I can change the format I should be able to move it to another player or at least burn it in Nero. Thanks.

I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
Thanks.

Sound is not working for Siri, voice mail, ringer tones, movies or music. I was told by verizon that the speaker maybe out, but that i might want to try and reload or update my itunes by plgging into my home computer... will this help and if so how do I do this?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

I have Photoshop CS, purchased many years ago for a LOT of money. Other day went to use it, got msg. "computer configuration changed, need to re-activate. Tried that for days, didn't work. Cannot call ANYONE to find out problem. Am not very computer literate, so don't understand what that means. LOVE the CS program and know how to use it, so don't want to have to learn something new. Don't know what to do. Went to all the big name stores and no one can tell me anything, like what happened to CS or what is replacing it that is the same as CS. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!

Yep. That's the one. Make sure to use the supplied key on the download page, not your old one.
Good luck.

Since Nov update about a third of my songs have a circle with an exclamation mark inside the circle. These songs will not play on my computer. Message says "The song .... could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have reloaded these back onto itunes with my own CD collection. They work for a short while, then the same thing happens. I don't know what is causing this or how to fix it.

I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

Can anyone tell me how to get books from Calibre on my computer to my Ipad as it's not working for me.

Can anyone tell me how to get e-books from the program Calibre on my computer to my Ipad? It doesn't seem to be working for me and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or maybe it's just not possible to do.

Have you tried just emailing them to yourself?

HT203167 I have music on another computer that no longer works and did not back it up. Can Apple somehow retrieve it for me?

I have music on another computer that no longer works and did not back it up. Can Apple somehow retrieve it for me?

If they were purchases from iTunes then have you checked to see if you can re-download them (it's not possible in all countries), assuming that they are still available in the store : re-downloading ? If you aren't in a country where you can re-download past music purchases and you haven't got a backup, then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Safari works for one user but not another on same computer

MacBook with multiple user accounts. Safari (and Firefox) work fine for one user but are unable to open web pages when the other user is logged in. The error in Safar is "Safari can't open the page "http://xxxxxxxxx/" because it could not connect to the server "/xxxxxxx/" . DNS is working for this user. I am able to ping any number of sites from Terminal. Network Preference pane is configured to not require any proxy. This is a case of it was working but now it's not.
Can anybody help with this? I know I can fix this by simply creating another user and transfering the affected user's data to the new account but I would rather not. TIA

HI Bob,
You can test your settings by clicking the big "Test My DNS" button at <https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy>. If you see "Poor" on any of the tests, don't use that domain name server! Remove it from Apple Menu => System Preferences =>Network =>DNS Servers or similar location in your router if you've got a 'home network'. If all you have is "poor" DNS servers in your list, call your ISP and insist that they give you the address of a name server which is protected against the recently exposed DNS cache-poisoning threat.
Also, open System Preferences/Network. Click the DNS tab. Add these numbers in the DNS Servers box.

See if that helps.
