3 days Still Can't Use mail or Contact a Live Person

It's 3 days almost and I understand the mail system is having problems for some users. There is a big difference between a day or a few hours and 3 days! However my problem continues for 3 days. I tried called Mac Tech Support only to have a recording ask for an access number followed by the pound key. I don't even know what an access number is. The machine kept repeating this over and over. And still no mail delivered to my computer. I am paying $100 a year for this and would not recommend it to others now.

No, I do not believe I am having other issues than Mac's mail service. I have carefully checked all my mail settings and everything humanly possible. My account status is good. There is a problem with Mac not caring to offer phone support to their loyal customers with older computers. All these "help" and support topics on other parts of the .mac website (the pre fab questions and answers) never seem to cover my problem. I am on an older generation of G3 runing OS 9.1 and I am very upset. What are we supposed to do, those of us senior citizens living on fixed incomes? Throw away our computers after a few years and replace them? I'm shocked at Macs carefree attitude toward loyal customers.

Still can't Use Mail!

I can't use my mail program that's at the botton of my screen. I can open it, but that's about it. The wait icon just comes up and I sit there. And it will just stay like that until I force quit. Does anyone know what's going on and how I can fix it? I will be very greatful for any advice given.

Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
Finally, try launching Mail under the following conditions (you may need to force quit it first if it’s running) and post back with your observations:
1. Holding the Shift key down until the main window appears.
2. With no Internet connection.

TS3988 My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.

My icloud account is not verifying it says check my mail witch I have done and I get a message say your iPhone for has been used to set up and Icloud account but still can not use the icloud can anybody help me.

Be sure you are checking the email account that you used to set up the Apple ID you used to create the iCloud account. Also, be sure to check your spam/junk folder as well as your inbox. The email you should receive looks like the image below. When you get it, click the Verify Now link.
If it still isn't there, try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right look for a link to resend the verification email.

I use Plaxo for my contacts, and I want it to synch my Outlook contacts with my PC. So I can't use my iCloud contact synch. My question: How do I disable my iCloud contact synch feature while still allowing the rest of iCloud (music

I use Plaxo for my contacts, and I want it to synch my Outlook contacts with my PC. I got a new HP PC with the (awful) Windows 8.0 operating system, and, to say the least, I miss the good old days. Plaxo customer support tells me that I can't use my iCloud contact synch because they clash.
My question: How do I disable my iCloud contact synch feature while still allowing the rest of iCloud (music, photos) to operate as usual.
What mysterious steps must I take in order to do this and not cause a complete meltdown in the process? The meltdown that I fear most is the one that happens between my ears.

Music is nothing to do with iCloud but Photostream is, so turn off Mail, Contacts and Calendars (in the iCloud Control Panel) and leave everything else on.
You will lose iCloud Calendars and Mail as well as Contacts, but you can manually re-enable mail (if you use iCloud email)

I have a Windows 2003 Server 64-Bit, and when I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 now it won't run, it keeps saying to restart to complete the installation, but I've restarted theserver 4 times, and I still can't use it.

I ended up putting it in DFU mode. It's kinda hard to tell it was in DFU mode because nothing showed on the screen, it was just black, but the sounds from the computer helped to tell me it was connected.
Itunes still didn't recognize the device for whatever reason.
So I used redsn0w. I don't know if I can say that on these forums, but considering itunes was worthless at this point I am going to give credit where credit is due.
Now I am giving itunes a second chance to upgrade to 5.1, if it doesn't work, well, back to redsnow and maybe I will even jailbreak it this time rather than just using the fecovery fix found under extras.

HT2534 I have apple id but I still can not use it. what did I do wrong?

I hava already applied for the apple id and now I have it but I still can not use it.

Did you sign-off your old AppleID and sign on with your new one in Settings -> iTunes and App Store?

I have logged in to iMessage using my id, received the email saying i logged, but still can't use it. have I done the rgistration process correctly?

Make sure the pdf has the '.pdf' extension on the file name. I've seen this a few times and adding the extension usually solves the problem.

Help, I just subscribe Adobe CC and I still can't use Adobe Muse.

Help, I just subscribe Adobe CC and I still can't use Adobe Muse. It still said my trial has expired. and ask me to put the serialnummer. What should I do ?

Hello,
As confirmed by you Muse is asking for serial number on launch. Most of the time this happens because of Hosts file on the machine.
Please go ahead and rename the hosts file on your machine and you should be all set. here are the steps for both MAC and Windows.
Windows:
1. Go to following location. C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
2. Rename the file "Hosts" to "hostsold"
3 Relaunch Muse and sign in with your Adobe ID, you should be all set.
MAC:
1. Go to Finder > Go > Go to Folder
2. Type /etc and hit Return
3. Rename the file "Hosts" to "hostsold"
4. Relaunch Muse and sign in with your Adobe ID, you should be all set.
Regards
Vivek

Still can't use cover flow

okay, i still can't use cover flow. i got the itunes 7 update, 7.0.1, but it still comes up with "can't browse album covers on this computer." is it just because i use windows 2000, or do i need to change something on my computer?

It shouldn't be related to Windows 2000, and luckily there are a few things you can try.
First, here's Apple's reference to the problem, iTunes 7 for Windows is unable to display album covers in Cover Flow.
The following have fixed the problem for many people...
Make sure the graphics card has 32Mb of memory or more. If you're not sure carry on as we're going check this later
Download and install iTunes 7.0.1 (or higher), http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Make sure that your Hardware Acceleration is set at Full. Control Panel > Display, Settings > Advanced, Troubleshoot
Install the latest drivers for your Graphics card - this fixes most problems
Download and install DirectX 9.0c (or higher), DirectX 9.0c
Start > Run, type dxdiag and press enter. Go to the Video tab (or Display n) and enable DirectDraw Acceleration and Direct3D acceleration.
Whilst on this tab check the Approx. Total Memory value to ensure your graphics card has at-least 32MB of available memory
If iTunes still isn't working...
Uninstall iTunes, don't re-install just yet...
Install Quicktime 7.1.3 (or higher), http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
Install iTunes again
However, I can confirm that none of the above will work for the Matrox G550. Guess which card I have...
P4 2GHz, 1GB RAM Windows XP Pro SP2; Matrox G550; Dual screen

I have installed executable installer but I still can not use adobe flash player 10.1

I have installed executable installer but I still can not use adobe flash player 10.1 and i cant not find it on my
documents. I do not know what to do? My computer is XP and Internet Explorer.
Why won't it let me download it or use it?

Can you see the Flash animation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ? If yes, Flash Player is correctly installed and working.
If not, what files do you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash ?

Can I Use Mail

Can I use Mail with my SBC Yahoo Mail account ? and how would I go about setting that up if I could, reason why I ask is because then I can just send mail and see my mail taht way, instead of having to go to yahoo all the time, or useing Yahoo Messenger to just check my mail.

You don't need to visit 50 websites - you need to visit SBC's website - the same website where you go to access your SBC/Yahoo email account via webmail.
That website should include a Help section that provides the account setup information for creating and accessing the account with an email client such as the Mail.app and I'm certain SBC provides POP type account access only.
If you call SBC and tell them you have a Mac and are using the Mail.app, they will probably tell you that they don't support Macs/OS X or the Mail.app but all you need to get from SBC is the following:
Incoming Mail Server address.
User Name Requirement - usually the portion of your email address in front of the @ sign only but sometimes the entire email address depending on the provider.
Account Password - you should already know.
Is Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) required for the incoming mail server? Some providers support this but not required but it is required by some providers.
Outgoing or SMTP server address.
Is the SMTP server authenticated?
If so, the user name requirement. This is usually the same user name requirement as for the incoming mail server.
Password - This is usually the same password used to check the incoming mail server for new messages.
Some email clients such as the Mail.app have a selection to use the same account user name and password settings as for the incoming mail server when the SMTP server is authenticated. The Mail.app has no such setting so if the SMTP server is authenticated, the settings must be entered separately for the SMTP server.

Hello,
see >>> http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html here >>> How many computers can I install on
I quote: You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers. You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.
Good luck!
