AOL mail not appearing on macbook

If I log into AOL through Safari, I often find that I have emails at AOL.com that do not appear in my mail notices on my Macbook pro, but if I look at my ipod, they are always there. Is there some setting that I need to change on the laptop?

I had the same problem for the past few days. I'm using Hotmail and Gmail with Exchange Active Sync. I'm receiving e-mails with sender and subject but no text in the body of the e-mail.I'm from The Netherlands so i guess it's not a provider issue.
I tried deleting my account on my iPhone 4 and re-enter my settings. But still was getting empty e-mails. I shutdown my iPhone 4 completely and then i restarted it and now all my e-mail appear with text in the body of the e-mail.

Aol mail not working

Get providers outgoing address and enter it after you have deleted and set-up a new e-mail account. Enter the address under Host instead of the smtp.aol.com one, click done and it works...worked for my ipad and iphone after I lost it when upgraded! Hope this helps...
I use at&t, so mine was smtp.att.yahoo.com

Why does my aol mail not sync properly with the Droid Razr? Never had the problem with blackberry but now I deal with a great deal of spam & duplicating tasks

Why does my aol mail not sync properly with the Droid Razr? Never had the problem with blackberry but now I deal with a great deal of spam & duplicating tasks

This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

Sent mail not appearing in icloud

I use my macbook air, iphone and my ipad to send mail from my @me.com account. But when i send an email from my macbook it does not appear in the sent mail folder on icloud. The iphone and ipad both work properly if i send mail from either device it appears in the icloud sent mail folder.
I've been trough the settings on my macbook and have the "Store sent messages on sever" option ticked, and the email accoutn is set up as an IMPA account but it still doesn't work.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Same here! Works on my iPad, iPhone and MacAir. But on my PowerMac the sent mail doesn't show up at all. I can't even find the messages I've tried to send so I can try retype them and resend on my iPhone.
Does your "sent" folder continually beach ball? Mine is non-stop beach balls. Like it's trying really hard to update the sent folder but ran into a Sysiphus stone.
hmm.

AOL mail not working on iPad

Hi All...
All of a sudden, AOL mail on the iPad has stopped working. I'm getting the message
The mail server "imap.aol.com" is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings
Well, I've ensured that the username and password in the mail settings are correct. I've also gone to the web interace for AOL mail and the username and password are correct. I've also removed the account from the iPad and tried readding it with no luck.
I'm wondering if this has something to do with the recent SSL / TLS security problem that came to light the other day?!?!
Anyone else experencing this?

I have two AOL accounts that are working fine. However, I get the same message from time to time on my iPhone and my iPad..... And I get the message out of the blue for no reason at all. I either wait it out, or more often than not, I close the mail app completely and restart or reset my devices and that works for me.
What I am saying is, I think that it is more related to something hinky on the iPad and not AOL itself. Reset your iPad and see if that helps.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

External Hard Drive not appearing on Macbook Pro or 2009 Macbook

Hello,
I have a G Technology G-DRIVE External Hard Drive, that until now has worked perfectly.
I plugged it in today to try and back up my macbooks through Time Machine, like I have done for the last year - and on ether of the computers, the Hard Drive is not appearing in Time Machine or Finder. Having browsed online, I found that it is showing in Disk Utility and in System Information - but other than that I cannot do anthing with it. I even tried to Repair the drive, by erasing it and reformatting it - and I cant do it - I keep getting the messgae 'Error: Disk Utility can’t repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files.'
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as I use this hard drive as a Time Machine Backup, and I'm unable to do so.

At best, it sounds like this HD is flakey so even if you were able to get it working again, I would not trust it.
PlotinusVeritas gives some great suggestions for purchasing external hard drives in this thread:

Mail not appearing as HTML - Mail Adapter

Hello All,
I'm using the mail package in a receiver mail adapter. During mapping I format the content in HTML format, using < > form < and >. Also I set the content type of the mail package to text/html. However when the mail is received, the content of the mail is the html with tags, it does not appear as an html page. When I see the source the file still has the escape characters instead of < and >. But when I save this as an html file and open it, it appears as a web page.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Sandeep

HI,Specify whether you want to encode the content of the e-mail message. You have the following options:
·        None
·        base64 (default value)
·        quoted-printable
use quoted-printable
Coding of characters in e-mails that are not contained in the ASCII character set.
The code contains German umlauts and special characters

Sent mail not appearing in Internet mail box

I have recently been using Mail on iMac and while I can receive and view all emails on it. But strange thing is that whatever I sent from Mail on the iMac, it just appeared on the Mail Sent box but do not appear on the internet version of email sent box or anywhere in the internet version. I do have an iPhone and the sent mail from the iMac Mail cannot be found too. However, receiptents do receive my emails anyway. It is frustrating and disappointed that this happened and unable to do work on my iMac in this way especially when I am travelling and away from my desk.
Currently I am using Yahoo! .sg mail with IMAP and has checked thoroughly, including the outgoing server. Did many delete and re-installing but this does not seem to work. Maybe there are some steps that I have overlooked, or improper installation, could somebody help?
JChanSGP

I find that perhaps one message in ten is not saved to my sent folder. I am using .mac mail. I am storing sent messages on the server, draft messages locally.
It seems that some kind of timeout on port 143 prevents the message from being copied to the sent folder, although the message is actually sent.
This is clearly a bug. Even if there is a communication failure, the message should remain accessible somewhere, not drift off into the ether. It would be far preferable to risk sending twice by holding the outgoing message in drafts until the move to sent completes.

Mail - Yahoo IMAP sent mail not appearing

Hi all,
I've been trying to troubleshoot this without much success. I've an iphone and a MBP running Lion. I've several Yahoo and Gmail accounts, and they are all set up as IMAP accounts.
Receiving and viewing messages are fine. However, if I were to send an email using one of the Yahoo accounts via Mail on the MBP, it gets sent successfully, but that email does not appear within the 'server' sent mailbox, nor within my iPhone mail app. Gmail seems to work fine.
I've highlighted each relevant 'sent' mailbox on my mac and set it to 'Use this mailbox' within the Mailbox menu, but it has not made a difference.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Much appreciated.
Thanks!
Alvin

Sending is done via SMTP. What happened here is that SMTP accepted the mails for sending (thus, the mail client put them in the sent folder). From that moment on, SMTP needs to actually deliver mails to the recipient(s). Until this has happened, mails stay in the mail queue of your mail server.
You did not mention if the mails got eventually delivered, so here is a list of some possible reasons for late delivery or non-delivery:
-Receiving mail server does not respond
-Connectivity issues
-amavisd not running
-Mail got flagged as spam (non-delivery). This would happen if you are trying to send mail from a blacklisted IP (like dynamic IPs) and your mail server is not configured to bypass spam scans for authenticated users.
HTH,
Alex

Mail not appearing in notification center... Also, gears not appearing in the mail app.

I tried to configure my mac to enable it to receive mails in the notification center but cant. i have tried to send an email from other IDs but havent received any banner or alert while using my mac. i have checked the show alerts and banners in notification center. Do i have to keep the window of the mail app in a specific position to receive alerts in the notification centre? Also, the gears are not appearing in the mail app when i fetch for new mail. please help..

I'm also having this problem.
Notifications receives alerts from Reminders app, but not Mail.
I've set preferences in Mail for 'Inbox Only' and 'All Mailboxes', sent test mail from ISP webmail and Google (Mail is not setup to receive from this account) - still no notifications.
I had previously used Growl (v1.4) and GrowlMail very successfully (with 10.7), but while upgrading to Mountain Lion I was informed that GrowlMail was incompatible so I deleted it.
While testing this problem of not receiving Mail Notifications I have disabled Growl and rebooted.
Like others here:
Checked: Notifications setup
Checked: Mail setup
Rebuilt permissions
Rebooted
Any help would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks.

Samsung note II, known issue of aol mail not being received on phone

I spent hours on the phone with Customer Service this past Wednesday & Thursday because my aol mail is not being received on my new phone. I just did some research online, and found out this has been an issue with AOL and Verizon since December 2012. The Customer Service rep told me this just happened the past week! What a bold faced lie!
I purchased this phone on or about July 3, and the AOL mail was working fine until this past Wednesday.
This is a know issue, and yet the lie right to your face about it.
I had a C/S rep tell me he would call me back later in the day, before he left work. I told him, I have heard that before. Oh, no, I will call you. Of course he didn't call. Your C/S reps think they can say whatever they want, but the calls have been monitored or tracked someway by your computer system.
I see many others have the same problem with the Samsung Note II and their email accounts.
Since December this has been going on, don't you think it's time you fixed the problem?
Two years ago, when I spent $200 on a phone, I said never again. But yet I wanted a 5.5" screen so I paid up! Never again!

I FINALLY spoke to someone today who was able to solve my problem so far.
In the PLAY STORE....look for K9 email app.....and download that...put in your AOL email address and password. You should now be able to receive your aol email on your phone.
It seems he has a Note II also, and had the same problem.
You would think that MANAGEMENT would tell all their C/S reps how to solve the problem. I guess they would rather lose a customer who has been with them for 10 yrs.

Aol Mail not responding

Try to open Aol Mail and the rainbow circle says "not responding" . I have shut down computer and restarted, no help. This has been going on for 5 days. I can receive mail from aol on my ipad and iPhone..please help

I have been reading a great deal of posts regarding AOL mail in the last few days. I would go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars and check the account settings. What troubleshooting have you tried? Reporting that prevents users providing help from repeating what you have already done.

Aol mail not going through

Every time I go to mail it says incorrect user name or password. I deleted account and added back and still no luck. My I- phone does the same thing, but on my MacBook it works fine. Is it something with the aol server that aol has to fix?

I have used AOL mail on my ipad since the day I bought it. I had no problems whatsoever setting it up.
Do you have the outgoing mail server as smtp.aol.com? Check your settings and make sure that it is set this way.

Aol Mail Not Loading Completely

Hello
I just recently noticed all my mail on my aol does not load.
all my accounts load completely my .mac,gmail etc..
just the 1st 10 emails load and that's it, it doesn't give me the option to load 25 or 50 more like it did before. it was fine before it would load all i want. now it's change.
i tryed deleting the account from my phone and setting it up again but nothing.
Please someone help me out? thanks

Errrr I would give up AOL, if I were you.
When people send me FWDs or a long chain-list type of FWD, the AOL stuff comes out as MIME and will not display on the iPhone.
And I don't think Apple will fix that, since they don't really talk about full support for AOL, just Yahoo and Gmail -
so I would make the switch, if I were you.
