After years of working fine and no recent changes, my thunderbird now refuses to retrieve emails from one of my 3 email addresses. What do I do?

Last week it had slowed considerably in retrieving messages for this email address, but now it does not work at all. The three other email addresses are working fine.
The email address that is not working is working fine on my phone and on webmail, but not on thunderbird.

This is a POP email account. I can see everything, all files and buttons. The problem is that when I click on "get mail" either nothing happens or it takes forever to download the mail. Further, when I click on each email it takes a long time to open, it takes a long time to delete, it takes a long time to go to the next email. I have no other problems.
This has always been a POP account, and it has always worked fine, but it's the only account that I have trouble with now. My other two email accounts download quickly through thunderbird. It is not a gmail acct. Sending an email is not a problem. Seeing emails in folders is not a problem. I can go on webmail to retrieve the emails just fine, but that isn't very convenient.

I recently changed my Apple ID to a new email address. My old one still is in my phone, and cannot be permanently deleted as it says that Find my iPhone is still on. I can't turn it off because I do not have the password to my old "deleted" Apple ID.

I have the EXACT SAME PROBLEM and have been researching the past 2 hours!!!! Aaargh!

I am trying to update my apps on my iPhone. I recently change my apple ID to a new email address. When I go to update the pop us is asking for the password for my old email address.

I recently changed my apple ID to my new email address. On my iPhone 4 I am trying to update apps and it asks me for my apple ID password for my old email address. How do I change to my new email address?

Did you change the Apple ID primary email to another email address or did you create a whole new Apple ID?
Go to settings>itunes & app store and if it shows your old apple id at the top then tap on it then sign out and then sign in with your new apple id email.

I just got a 64 bit new coomputer and use FirFox always. My home page Yahoo an dYahoo email work fine and fill the page but all other websites there is a 3-4' border around the words. What can cause that the 64 bit instead of 32 bit?

I have tried everything I know in Windows 7 and your suggestions but nothing changes the look of each page. Only about half the page is being used for words and the rest is empty space. As I said my Yahoo and Yahoo email fill the page but nothing else does. Looks like words in a wide picture frame. This is Windows 7....64 bit...4GB memory and 1TB hard drive and Intel 3 chip

Let me also copy and repeat -- since the developers' club apparently has chosen to not give it any weight or credibility -- a comment by a completely different user, in a different thread:
"I am using the 64-bit nightly, and it is FAR faster than any release in 32-bit, and I have 2GB of ram. Usually the addon compatibility thing takes minutes, when with the nightly 64-bit, I was done in a matter of seconds. also, I notice that it is faster, pages load faster, there is less lag, and it all around seems better than 32-bit in every aspect, even though it is just automatically compiled and not tweaked."
So, the developer's club position remains, "there really isn't much need for a 64-bit version", despite comments like that. Hmmm . . .
Are you SURE you want to stand directly behind that answer, while people shoot at it?

I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem.

I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem. Uninstalled it. Still have the problem with Firefox.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then? That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

Why can I no longer, after having downloaded Lion, write accents and other diacriticals when in the Google, Yahoo, FaceBook, or even here in this post? The new method for getting at the "option" symbols works fine in other places like spotlight, but now even the older "option+letter" doesn't work in most places.

Chrome doesn't support the new accent/diacritics/macron chooser. I'm not sure about other browsers such as Firefox. You can use the old Option+letter combination that Doug suggested. Hopefully updates will solve these little incompatibilities shortly.

HT1414 i had my boyfriend hook up and activate my new iphone, unaware that you had to put in many bits of imformation, like your email and whatnot to create an apple account. Well, everything worked fine and i thought nothing of it untill now after him an

...and so everything was working fine and dandy untill I ran into this small problem. My significangt other and I had a falling out and are no longer speaking to one another. He has a little bit different way of thinking than I do and was very controlling throughout our relationship. My iphone stopped working the other day and I found out that it apparently had been reported stolen. I was dumbfounded and I knew there had been a mistake but after i was given the instructions of what needed to be done to clear this up, this is where the problems began. I needed to get back into my device and was asked for my icloud account information. I wasnt real sure what it would be seeing as though i wasnt aware that i had one. i knew i had an email and of course i knew the password however that did not seem to work. i believe that what has happened is all kind of part of his controlling ways and that when he activated my phone for me he used all of his own information in case of a situation like this. He knows how badly he is getting to me right now with this and he knows i am unable to use my phone. he must have also been the one who reported it stolen knowing that he is also the one who knows how to reactivate it when it asks for what information it needs to do that. So for the moment, i am completely locked out of my own phone and can do nothing. i am livid with this whole thing and am getting more and more frustrated as i try to get this resolved. i need some help as to how i can start from scratch like it was when i brought it home from the store except this time i will do it all myself and put in my own personal information, no one elses so i NEVER run into anything similiar to this again. what do i do?

Sorry, without knowing the Apple ID/Password that was originally used to activate this phone, then there is no way to re-activate it, as you've found out.
Apple can't/won't help you. Your choice is to get this info, or you simply won't be able to re-activate this phone.
If you ex won't give it to you, then consult a lawyer.

Hello I recently downloaded an app on my iphone 4s - Remote mouse- so i can control my laptop that is connected to my tv, it used to work fine and now the connection fails, I downloaded another app and the same problem occurs, its not the firewall and both phone and laptop are conected to the same wifi, i also tried to connect it manually with the ip address and still no connection, can you help??

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.(No data loss) Try it again.

The screen goes black 2 or 3 secs after lifting the lid, but comes back on if I disconnect the magnetic power lead, after that it works fine with or without lead. Anyone had this problem, and is it symptomatic of a serious fault

It could be a software issue. I would reinstall the OS. You don't have to lose or reinstall any apps from archive and install. This way, your user folder remains intact but you get a fresh copy of the OS.

You may need to try this More than Once...
Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.
Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

Windows 7 worked fine and now won't boot/start anymore?

My little brother just bought a used 24" iMac (early 2008) at the beginning of this year.
He installed a Boot Camp and Windows 7 for gaming.
Everything worked fine and he played with iMac earlier today, but now he phoned me that Windows won't start anymore. He gets a black screen with blinking line after booting to Windows partition. He said that the black screen used to flash everytime windows started, but now he's stuck to that black screen. He tried to repair windows with the installation DVD, but there was only options to restore system from backup image file or drive, which (of course) my brother hadn't made.
Is there any way to fix this problem or does he have to install Windows again?

Get a book. Spend more time researching. Make sure not to install x-ware or anything that isn't needed and compatible. You should invest in backups, and use restore check points.
Try getting chkdsk to also look for bad sectors.
And uninstall whatever was last installed. And one plus for Windows, you can rollback a driver too.
Could happen if they ran too low on free disk space. Windows 7 SP1 is due out, and that will need 9GB of free space to install and update (you get some back but good idea to have the extra space).
Clean out all the temp files that can clog a drive, I use CCleaner daily and sometimes there is 500MB to dump.
A good backup/clone and Boot Camp support program:

There is no sound on my iPhone4. Everything is working fine, and suddenly sound goes off, any recomendation will be apreciated.
There is no sliding volume bar (in fact it comes and goes by itself).
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Ziad2000, I have already tried to restore to factory defaults, and the problem continues, let me make a broader explanation of the problem. I acquired my phone almost a year ago, and everything was working just fine, I bought an iPhone dock station and after a few uses of it, the problem started. I do not know if everything is related to this item.

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:

Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from

After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

iTunes is updated and works fine and I am able to log onto my account. When I go to purchase a song, I get the error message "Your Apple ID has been disabled". I've tried different methods: changing passwords, making a new account with another email address, and emailing itunes tech support. I am curious as to how many others have been experiencing the same issue. When I googled the error, it seemed like it was happening extremely often with many people.
We all love their products, but they always come with a lot of issues and horrible customer support.
My apple Id is [email protected]

My Iphone 4 is telling me the same thing and I believe I figured out what the problem is. I had some fraudulent charges on my itunes account, so I call my bank and disputed the charges. Right after I did that, I started getting the message "Your apple ID has been disabled." I just realized today that the charges are not fraudulent, they are "in app purchases." One of my daughters downloaded the game Top Girl which is FREE, but in the game Top Girl you use money in the game to purchase things. It just so happens that the money you use to purchase things is real money MY Money!!!. My daughter thought she was using play money in the game and had no idea she was using real money. She spent $106.00 buying stuff. Now I have to call the bank and tell them to release the hold and pay Itunes. I'm hoping this solves the problem. Here is the link to learn how to disable "in app purchase" on your iphone or ipad.
