Any one know how to adjust mail to receive gmail?

Has anyone had trouble receiving gmail on IMac. I am using mail 6.5 and it stopped getting my gmail in the past few months. I have tried resetting the gmail account but with no success.

Note that you lose privacy when using Gmail (and Yahoo):
Gmail and Yahoo both scan users' emails. They do algorithmic analysis of your email messages, targeting ads that relate to the content of your messages. Defenders point out that "they", are not people, but machines. And they argue that it is a harmless way of making advertising relevant to users and raising revenues.
Others might say that whether a machine or a human is doing the work, the potential for a privacy breach is there.

  • Any one know how to retrieve mail from entourage in Lion?

    Entourage is not supported in Lion. I am looking for a solution to import mail from entourage into Mail without going back to Snow Leopard. Any suggestions?

    Okay, I am going to try downloading the trial version of Office for Mac with Outlook and see if it will find my Entourage 2004 emails/contacts.  Then I will move them to Mail.  I will report back if it works.  (Not sure if Lion already ate all my email though!)

    Good question - and one that a lot of (business) people would like solved!
    Your question prompted me to do some research, and I found this workaround posted by Scott Grossberg:
    His solution actually addresses a second problem too - how to attach a document when replying to an email message. In your case you may not need to consider the "reply" aspect - but if not right now, it'll come in useful someday!
    I've pasted it verbatim - if it works for you (it does for me) then all credit goes to Scott for solving the problem. There's just one thing I'd add to his solution: you will probably want to rename the message, as by default Goodreader gives it the Subject line: Mail with GoodReader attachments.
    THE GOODREADER OPTION
    1.  CREATE the document you want to send.
    2.  SAVE it to GoodReader (this will require you to buy and install the app).
    3.  Go to your email and OPEN the email thread to which you want to Reply and attach your file.
    4.  COMPOSE your Reply.
    5.  DOUBLE TAP the message.
    6.  TAP SELECT ALL. This will copy the entire email thread.
    7.  OPEN GOODREADER on the iPad and go to the file you want to send as part of your Reply.
    8.  At the bottom of the GoodReader screen you will see an EXPORT icon (it looks like a rectangle with an arrow pointing to the right).
    9.  TAP the Export button.
    10.  TAP EMAIL FILE. Depending on your needs, tap either SEND FILE “AS IS” or “FLATTEN ANNOTATIONS.” This will open a compose message screen with the chosen document already attached.
    11.  TAP in the body of the email screen. TAP PASTE. This will place your composed Reply and the prior email thread into the message.
    12.  ENTER the Recipients’ names in the TO: field of your message.
    13.  SEND your email Reply.
    The modified version (= when composing a new message rather than a reply):
    1 Make sure that the doc you want to attach is saved in GoodReader
    2 In the message you are composing, double tap, select all, and then copy.
    3 Open GoodReader and select the file you want to attach
    4 Select the export button at the bottom of screen
    5 Select e-mail file
    6 Position cursor in body of the email message, tap and paste. You may want to delete the "sent from GoodReader" text that precedes the attachment.
    7 Rename your message (as by default it will be Mail with GoodReader attachments)
    8 Add the recipient's address in the To field.
    Hope this helps! All thanks to Scott for this workaround.

  • In previous versions of Firefox I was able increase the display size on Flickr which remained unless I altered it again. Does any one know how to do this on Firefox 4?

    Question
    In previous versions of Firefox I was able increase the display size on Flickr which remained unless I altered it again. Does any one know how to do this on Firefox 4

    Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
    * You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    * To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    * Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
    You can use one of these extensions to adjust the default font size and page zoom on web pages:
    * Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965

  • Does any one know how to set up runbox email with iphone

    Does any one know how to set up my runbox email so that I can access it through my i phone?

    Per this link, it appears you can access a runbox email account as an IMAP or POP account.
    http://www.runbox.com/
    Are you currently accessing your runbox email account with the Mail.app or with another email client on your Mac?
    If so, you should be able to use the same account settings used when creating the account with the email client on your Mac. If you are accessing the account with an email client on your Mac and you want to keep all server stored mailboxes for the account synchronized with the server with the email client on your Mac and with the iPhone's mail client, you should access the account as an IMAP account with both email clients.
    If you are accessing the email account with the Mail.app on your Mac, you can transfer the account settings from your Mac to the iPhone's mail client via the iTunes sync process - which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    I'm unable to open their support link with a failed to open page error message - looks like they have a scheduled downtime due to server park relocation so I assume this is affecting access to their support link.

  • Does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space

    does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space, i wanna delete that... Actually what it contains

    Those are the data of the installed apps. Don't listen if someone says that it's an iOS, because it is not. On your iPhone, go to general > usage. It will show you all the programs installed on your iPhone. If you click any of them you will see how much of "others" it has (documents and data)
    There's no way to delete it if you want to still have those apps. You can reinstal those which has the most "others" but after some time of usage, it will raise again.

    If not, I have used Macro Express to format tables in Rh. No reason it could not be used in Word.

    I need to delete the entire browsing history so when i type in a webpage it soes not bring up previuosly visited sites.  deleting the history does not do this.  any one know how to do this

    Judy-
    If Private Browsing doesn't do it, try Settings-Safari-Advanced-Website Data-Remove All Websitre Data.
    Or changing Settings-Safari-Autofill to OFF.
    You might also try Settings-Safari and Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
    As you can see, there are several controls for Safari.  Which one works depends on what your problem is.

  • Can't use down key because it opens automator. Does any one know how to disable this short cut?

    Everytime I press down on down key it opens automator. It doesn't let me delete the app. I don't know what to do, it is very frustating to fill in a chart when I can't use the down key. Does any one know how to disable this short cut?

    Are you talking about the Down Arrow key? To my knowledge there is no way to use that key as a shortcut for anything. But look in the Keyboard section of System Preferences and the Keyboard shortcut tab.

  • Does any one know how to arrange songs by location in itunes lybrary?

    I've ripped more than 100 CDs in different folder in my computer. After installing itunes, every songs is added to the library. But when I want to transpher some songs located in a specific folder, I can not find how? They only arrange by names, or album, or artist... They don't know if you got a collection of favourite songs in a folder, how can I find them, or I have to find each song manualy? Any one knows how to arragne songs by their location, pls help. Thanks alot

    I can not drag directy from my store folder to my Ipod, right?
    Correct.
    I dont want to select hundreds of songs one by one.
    Okay. You have already done that.
    But how do you find a specific song? You have to remember if it's in your favorites folder or in the artist folder or ???
    In iTunes, you create a playlist, put the music you want in the playlist, drag the playlist to your iPod in iTunes.
    Anytime you wan t, add or remove songs from this playlist and plug in the iPod to sync it up.
    iTunes is a music manager.
    You are simply using Windows Explorer/the desktop as a manager now.
    iTunes is so much more versatile. You can sort, group, exclude by Album, Artist, date of song, Genre, and a bunch of other criteria.
    Just as you don't care where a song is physically located on a CD, you don't need to be concerned (too much) with where it is on your HD. With iTunes, as long a syou know something about it (Artist or album), you can find it with one or two clicks.

    Thanks, but, using the "free" version of Reader, there is no opportunity to open nor import the xml data - the menu options do not exist - there is no import listed.
    If we try to open the xml file directly, then we get an error - something to the effect of "unsupported file type, or the file is corrupted".
    I just noticed in my Pro version that there is the command File ->Form Data ->Import Data to Form... command. Is this what you are referring to?
    What do you recommend? Perhaps the easiest thing to do would be to purchase a few copies of Acrobat Pro for the reservations people to use? I was hoping that the free version of reader would do it, but perhaps not?
    Thanks again,
    Rob

    This sounds like a hardware problem and should be taken to Apple if the heating / "hiting" becomes disturbing to you. If you feel that your iPhone has a heating / "hiting" problem and needs to be repaired, please contact Apple Support and they can further assist you in having it inspected, repaired, or even replaced. In the past, the overheating of Apple products has been known to cause harmful problems to a few particular users. Please evaluate your situation and take further action if you feel necessary.

    Are the playlists still on the iPod? If so I can probably cook up a script to read them back into iTunes, or you can check the features of the various tools listed at the end of this user tip to see if you can find one that you want to use.
