Yahoo Mail basic - works on iMac desktop but not macbook pro?

Settings appear identical but yahoo mail basic will not work on mac book pro mail but OK on iMac desktop mail...... whats that all about?

 
Is your iMac OS current?  Your MBP isn't:  (10.6.2)
Use Software Update to update your OS to last version of Snow Leopard - OS 10.6.7.  Install all the other updates that goes along w/it.

  • I have a iMac desktop and a macbook pro laptop I work mainly on the desktop but when i go away for work I take my laptop. Is there any way to make it automatically back up to mirror my desktop? Like when I update a file it updates on there too etc?

    I have a iMac desktop and a macbook pro laptop I work mainly on the desktop but when i go away for work I take my laptop. Is there any way to make it automatically back up to mirror my desktop? Like when I update a file it updates on there too, if I install software it installs on there too etc?
    When I first got the laptop I syned it to load with all the same software etc but it hasn't continued to sync
    Thanks

    I use
    Chronosync (http://www.econtechnologies.com/pages/cs/chrono_overview.html)
    and
    Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/)
    Both work very well. The former I use for manual, one-way synchroniziation of (nearly) entire systems. The latter for automatic syncing of very active directories through local and shared online storage.

  • Tethering working on MacPro but NOT Macbook Pro

    Having a problem with tethering when using it with my laptop. Macbook Pro (6.1), Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and Aperture 3.1.1.
    My MacPro is working without any problem. (Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and Aperture 3.1.1)
    I have tried both my cameras Canon 5Dmk2 and Canon 20D. Both cameras are recognized in both Macbook Pro and MacPro but only on the MacPro the images will show up. In my Macbook Pro I can press capture and both cameras react but then nothing happens.
    Strange it works on one computer but not the other one.
    Any suggestions?

    You're right it is strange. As it works on one system and not the other with the exact same camera and cable and the fact that you hear the shutter go off even on the system where the images don't show up would seem to indicate some difference in the configuration of Aperture on the MBP.
    Do the images ever show up? If you go to the Photos icon and search you're complete library do they appear anywhere? There isn't a filter set on the project your importing into by any chance?
    I would make a new empty library and try using that to see if it makes any difference. You could also move the com.apple.Aperture.plist file from your Library/Preferences folder to the desktop, restart Aperture and see if that makes any difference.

  • Yahoo mail stopped working on imac when i changed passord with Yahoo

    This may or may not be a coincedence but it seems about the same time.  Ever since I changed my password for my yahoo account, I've had problems with getting yahoo mail to send or receive from mac mail.  I simply changed my passsword on both my iphone and ipad and they've worked seamlessly, however with my imac no such luck.  I've searched high and low on forums, tried changing the settings and ports.  Deleted ALL yahoo related items within keychain, nothing seems to work.  A couple of times I deleted the yahoo account, reinstalled and it brought in thousands of messages, but then 5 minutes later would stop working again.  Now it continually gives me the message that my password is being rejected.  If I go to yahoo the password works fine.
    I've spent hours trying to resolve this, if anyone has any suggestions, please help me!!

    This worked for me. If you have an email that will not load in your yahoo from your PC, it is probably the culprit. Delete that mail or mails and your iphone will load all of your missing emails.

  • Mail stopped working on iPad & iPhone, but not G5, after installing iOS 7.

    Here we have a G5, an iPhone-4 and an iPad all linked to the same POP account.  Mail fetching on all three devices had been working fine. 
    Earlier this week (10/23 or 10/24), however, Mail on both the iPhone and the iPad quit working shortly after our having installed iOS 7 on each of them.   This could be a coincidence, but Mail on a G5 running 10.5.8 linked to the same account is still fetching and sending mail just fine.
    Every time we swipe down on the message list (the gesture to fetch new mail) in Mail on the iPad, an error message appears,
    Cannot Get Mail
    The user name or password for
    "Primary Mail Account" is incorrect
    Settings   |    OK
    An analogous gesture on the iPhone produces the same message.
    But Mail on the G5 (running 10.5.8) still works fine to fetch mail from the same POP account.
    Here are some details:
    About two weeks ago, we installed iOS 7 on the iPad and the iPhone.  Mail continued to work after the installation.
    About a week later, last Wednesday, 10/23, the iPad went through a spontaneous installation event, in which the multilingual series of "Hello!" images familiar to those who install Mac operating systems floated across the screen.  Apparently, this event installed iOS 7.0.3.  There followed a short series of initialization dialogs, then everything seemed to work OK.
    Except that Mail wasn't working.  This could be a coincidence, but Mail on this iPad has not worked since last Wednesday.  The last message received is dated last Wednesday.
    We don't know whether the iPhone went through a similar event, but Mail quit working on it, as well.  Mail on this iPhone now gets the same message, above, as on the iPad.  The last message received by the iPhone was last Thursday, 10/24.  The iPhone's iOS is now 7.0.2.  The iPhone says that iOS 7.0.3 is downloaded, but not yet installed. 
    We compared the settings for Mail on the G5, on which Mail is still working, against the settings on the iPad and the iPhone.  They all seem pretty much the same.
    Have you heard of anyone else with this problem, or might you have an idea how to research it?

    That worked!  A couple of notes for anyone with the same problem:
    I thought I'd be clever and create a new account before deleting the old one.  That didn't work, as "Settings" kept insisting that the account had already been created.  I had actually to delete the old account and create a new one from nada.
    I was careful to write down all the settings parameters first.  Even so, it took a few tries to get everything spelled right.  Fortunately, "Settings" checked everything carefully and its messages pointed to the right places.
    I still got the same error message the first time i relaunched Mail.  However, this time I chose the "OK" option.  Since then and thereafter it seems to be working.
    Thanks for your help, lizdance40.

  • Fixed header working fine for desktop but not for windows phone

    I have my website in asp.net with master page. I have used below css for header div of my website to make it fixed.
    .header{
    z-index: 3001;
    position:fixed;
    top:0px;left:0px;
    background-color: white;
    width:100%;height:150px;
    This is working fine for desktop. But on mobile, I can only see my 50% of width of the header. On the right side of 50%, nothing is cmg. As in just white background is cmg. On the right side, I have a button which when I click is working. To say, controls are
    not visible but they are working if u manage to click at the exact place. Any fix for this?
    I want to add that this problem is coming only in windows phone. So need fix for that.

    Hi User1508372,
    The
    Developing for Windows Phone forum is for developers to discuss writing Windows Phone apps, not for writing web sites targeting Windows Phone IE.
    My guess here is that your site may be running into a compatibility mode or different versions of IE on desktop and on Windows Phone, but you don't provide enough information about which versions of IE you are using. Windows Phone 8 uses IE 10 (similar to
    Windows 8).
    The folks in the
    Windows Phone IT Pro forums are likely to know more about the Windows Phone IE specifics, and the folks in the IE or ASP.Net forums will know more about how to target your HTML for different versions.

  • Xbox 360 controller works in mate desktop but not DWM?

    Hello,
    I just switched to DWM from mate desktop. I use my xbox 360 controller with steam home streaming. Worked perfectly under mate but it doesnt work at all in DWM.
    The xbox controller light is on in dwm and I can confirm it still works under mate. I tried installing xf86-input-joystick but no joy. (didnt need this under mate)
    Anyone know what makes this work in mate desktop or how to make it work in dwm?
    Many Thanks.
    PS: Don't know if it helps but my .xinitrc is just a copy of /etc/skel
    #!/bin/sh
    # ~/.xinitrc
    # Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
    if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
    for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
    [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
    done
    unset f
    fi
    setxkbmap gb &
    exec dwm
    #exec mate-session

    I installed this driver:
    http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver
    And now my MBP reliably recognizes the controller (evident by it showing me what commands it is receiving in the preference pane created by this driver), but I've found that getting an individual game to behave nicely with the controller is a whole other ball of wax...good luck.

  • WiFi in Asia works on iPhone but not Macbook Pro

    I am currently traveling around Asia and I have my Macbook Pro and iPhone with me.  I have had no problems connecting to WiFi networks with my iPhone (currently typing this message with it on my hotel's WiFi).  However, my Macbook Pro has had endless issues.  Sometime it works, but often it doesn't.  The most common issue is that it gets a self assigned IP address and can't connect to the internet.  It can usually find and connect to the WiFi network, but from there things get dodgy.  As I said, it sometimes works fine.  I would say it works on 1 out of every 3 networks that I try. 
    So far I have tried the following:
    Renewing DHCP Lease (without client ID and with made up client ID)
    Disabling firewall.
    Turning off wifi and them back on.
    Restarting computer.
    Deleting WiFi service and recreating.
    Creating new "location".
    Repairing permissions.
    Using different login account.
    Manually entering TCP/IP settings copied from iPhone.
    "Forgetting network" and rejoining.
    None of the above has helped, except that one time renewing DHCP lease with a made up client ID did the trick.
    I have the summer 2012 MacBook Pro 13" with OS 10.7.5 installed.
    Any help would be very appreciated.  :)

    It doesn't seem like anybody is going to respond to this thread, but I guess I will keep updating it just in case (and perhaps if I ever find a solution it will be helpful to others).
    Since my last post I have been to about 12 hotels in both Thailand and Cambodia.  This issue has continued with some variations:
    * At 3 of the hotels the wifi on my MacBook Pro actually worked!  It seemed to work ok, with minimal speed issues.
    * At 6 of the hotels the wifi did not work on my MacBook Pro, but worked fine on my iPhone.
    * At 3 of the hotels the wifi worked on my MacBook Pro but was PAINFULLY slow (to point where I couldn't upload photos, could barely check facebook, etc).  In fact, it was so slow that I basically gave up using the internet with my MacBook Pro and used my iPhone instead (which had normal speeds).
    I have continued to search the internet for solutions and nothing has helped yet.  It seems like this is a common issue with newer MacBook Pros, especially with OS Lion.
    I have also concluded that this isn't necessarily an Asia specific issue.  It seems like an issue with my MacBook Pro and using various WiFi routers with various setups.  Some work, but most do not.  Unfortunately I do not have access to any of the routers that I am using, so changing router setup is not an option.

  • Netflix works on iphone but not MacBook Pro?

  • PDFs and Word Files open on iMac but not Macbook Pro

    I own an iMac and a MacBook Pro. Recently, I've been having an issue with some PDFs and Word files that have been emailed to me from different contacts. All open—and can be seen using Quick Look—on the iMac. However, on the MacBook Pro it's a different story. When I try Quick Look all I see are the icons. When I try to open the PDFs in Preview (default app for me) I get an error message saying the file could not be opened and might be damaged. When I try to open the Word doc in Word, Pages or Bean I see all of the extraneous header information etc and the text is all mixed up in that formatting junk. I have repaired permissions, cleared out my user cache, restarted—pretty much everything I can think of. But no luck. Thought?

    Brilliant suggestion! I checked all the display settings on my iMac 27" and confirmed they were the same settings as my MacBook -- until I checked the Window 7 screen resolution. Because of its size, I had expanded the screen across most of the monitor. When I changed the resolution to one suggested or configured by Windows, Approach worked fine. I've now tested it on quite a few of the settings, and as long as I let Windows determine the best resolution (on my iMac 27" it seems to be 2043 x 1276), Approach works like it should. Thank you!

  • Problem running Windows software on iMac but not MacBook Pro

    I just got an iMac 27" to replace my old iMac 24". I also have a MacBook Pro.
    I am using the same version of Parallels 7 and Windows 7 on both my iMac 27 and my MacBook to run Lotus Approach 9.8 (part of a SmartSuite package).
    Lotus Approach works fine on my MacBook (as it did on my old iMac 24), but when I open database files on my iMac 27, the database screen starts flashing (rewriting the screen in some endless loop) and the program becomes inoperable.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled Parallels 7, Windows 7 and the Lotus software on my iMac 27, but that did not resolve the problem.
    I need to use the Lotus Approach software on my iMac 27 -- so I can convert the Approach databases to FileMaker.
    Any ideas about what the problem might be on the iMac 27 or what I can to to fix this problem? Is this a hardware problem, a driver problem, or something else?

  • Time Capsule gives internet to Desktop but not Macbook....

    Ok wizkids i am in need of your help.
    last night we had a storm and it knocked all our power out and when it came back on the internet was down, i went all gun-ho assuming i could fix it messing with time capsule and my modem, no luck. a few hours later the internet is back (could see this on the modem) but Time Capsule was no longer doing it's job to send my Mac Book Pro its beautiful internet.
    So here is what i have, Cable modem, to 1tb time capsule, time capsule connected to my dell desktop running XP.
    I current have internet on my desktop, provided by the time capsule and can also wirelessly connect to time capsule and its files via my mac book pro, but no matter what i seem to do, i cant seem to get it to connect to the inernet via time capsule.
    im wondering if it has anything to do with the DHCP settings, and what i need to enter in that section or the router, ip address areas (currently on automatic so nothing has been manually entered...)
    any help would be hot.
    thanks

    This is the AirPort Graphite and Snow forum. I suggest you post in the Time Capsule forum if you want more specific help.
    For what it's worth, here is how I see your situation.
    Since you have working Internet on the Dell, the correct settings for acquiring an IP address from your ISP are already present, either in the Time Capsule or in the Dell. If it is the Dell that has acquired the Internet IP address from your ISP (i.e., an address other than 10.0.1.x), the same TCP/IP settings (DHCP, PPPoE or Manual) that the Dell has been using should be used instead by the Time Capsule. If DHCP, the accompanying non-automatic fields (e.g., DNS servers, client ID) might or might not need to be filled in. If PPPoE, the account name and password would need to be filled in.
    The Time Capsule should be configured to share a single IP address. Both client computers should use DHCP as their TCP/IP settings (with accompanying fields blank), the Dell in its Ethernet settings and the MacBook Pro in its AirPort settings. The IP address that they acquire from the Time Capsule should have the form 10.0.1.x.
    If the Dell has been acquiring the Internet IP address, the modem might need to be unplugged from power for at least 5 minutes before the Time Capsule can acquire it instead.

  • Wifi works on Windows laptop but not macbook - help please!!

    Hi! I'm a new customer to Verizon having just moved to the US from the UK. We have the DSL service with the 7500 Westell router. I've set up the wireless and it works fine on my husband's laptop (IBM thinkpad with Windows XP) but my MacBook just will not connect properly. I can see our network in the list, and it will connect, but either it drops the connection immediately after connecting, or stays connected and the internet doesn't work. The ethernet connection works absolutely fine. Any advice gratefully received!
    thanks in advance,

    Quick quote from the FIOS area..
    http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Ipod-Touch-quot-Unable-to-connect-quot/m-p/12508#M1968
    remember that all apple products use lower-case letters in the passcode (WEP KEY), and use zero's ( 0 ), not capital O.    Then you may need to, instead of just trying to connect to your network, go to 'create a new network' and enter all info there to build the new connection, remembering that you are using dhcp.   Or you may be able to, after clicking on your network, find out how to enter your security code (WEP KEY) (passcode). 
    If you disable your passcode then anybody can use your wireless network
    While you are not on FIOS, I hope this helps...

  • Interactive form works in Reader 7 but not in Pro 7 or Standard 7

    I have created and interactive pdf form to send to users. Everyone can open and fill in the form. But people who have Acrobat Pro 7 and Acrobat Standard 7, can fill in the form, but not all the data is saved.
    Any thoughts on what is causing this and how to fix?
    Thanks,
    mdawn

    The binding determines whether the data in the field should be written to the data dom or not. A value of Normal indicates that you want the dta written to the dom and it will follow the hierarchy set in the hierarchy view of Designer. If you set it to None that indicates that you do not want the data written to the dom. You can bind the field to other inbound streams but that is another topic.
    The Data Dom is what is used to store all of the data in the form. It is what is used to make the data structure of the data file that is saved or submitted.
    Does that help?
