Apple Mac Email issues since going onto Infinity

Any Body help or know of a solution where on My Apple Mac since going onto Infinity I can not send Email's through Hotmail, on my Mail App on the Computer.
Thanks

When you moved to infinty did you move to a hub 3/4 after previously using a different router?  If so, the issue lies with the way the Mac presents it's name to the router.
There is a relatively simple fix for this.  Initially, to get confirmation of if this is the issue, go to your apple menu> system preferences>network, then select your connection to the hub (airport, ethernet etc), then go to advanced in the bottom right corner, and then select DNS.  At the bottom of the dns page will be the +/- buttons.  Hit plus and then enter 8.8.8.8, google dns.  Go back to system preferences this should save the changes, then go back to advanced>TCP/IP and hit refresh dhcp lease.
Close then re-open mail and try and send an email.  This should go out.  If it does, then it is the issue I believe it to be.
To resolve the issue we just need to change the name of the Mac to remove invalid characters.
Go to spotlight on the bar at the top and access terminal.  Once in Terminal type:
scutil --set HostName DavesMac  (name is example only, but make note of it, we need it in a moment)
Close terminal, then go back to apple menu>system preferences>sharing.  At the top of the page is an option to change the name of the Mac, so hit edit.  On the following page there will be a filed where you can enter DavesMac, enter that and hit done.  That will finish changing the name.
Go back to system preferences>network and select your connection again.  At the top of the page it shows location.  Select that and hit the + bottom at the bottom and add a new location (home for example).  Then select that location.  Then go back to advacned>tcp/ip and hit refresh dhcp lease once more.
Close Mac Mail, re-open and try and send, should work fine.

  • Ipod touch 4 days old - not being recognised now on apple mac.  What is going on?

    I am totally disappointed with this Ipod.  I had it all set up a few days ago, which we had to do at home ourselves due to requiring our current passwords etc.   Today it is not recognised on the Apple Mac and the Apple ID cannot be found - it took too long to find it. The Itunes server is not recognised and for some reason I cannot find new updates for either product.  They both appear to be up to date.  Waste of my time.  I have spent hours trying to find out what is wrong with it,   I bought this in Perth at the only Apple Store last Saturday.  I have purchased itunes music and this was successfully downloaded to mu ipod a few days ago.  Last night I downloaded my CD's to the itunes library and haven't been able to put these onto my Ipod.  What is going on?????  I though Apple was a fairly straight forward reliable brand of product.  Your support page is not helping me at present.

    I have contacted Apple support on the above issues and will have to follow it up with them as it is more involved than what I have listed. Our Apple Mac laptop is not downloading the updates for software.  The iTunes site does not recognise the "server" (comes up with a message saying this) and apparently this is a known problem.  The Mac needs to have a more current iTunes update but as the computer won't install the updates (goes through all the motions from the software update on the apple icon at top right hand corner of page) , I can't use my iPod on the computer to get my CD songs that are downloaded onto the itunes library site (don't know how to get these either) and it doesn't appear to recognise my iPod touch.
    I also couldn't log in to the Apple site this morning, but later on at about lunchtime I could!  Bizarre.  Of course I haven't had any problems logging into this site with my password and ID at all today. 
    So, lllaass, I am going to try Apple support again via the phone and see what happens....I have a job number to quote them when I call them back.  Thanks for your suggestions - I am definitely not an IT whiz, but I do know that my iPOD did work forthe first day or so. 

  • Apple Mac G4s am I going mad Hee Hee

    I recently obtain a PowerMac Quicksilver 800MHz with Tiger 10.4.11 installed have 512 ram and having problems with it. It keeps coming up with the dull scren and black box telling me to reboot sometimes when I log in or when I online or when I try to do something and sometimes can go on doing things with no problem then up it comes again. When I go back in it tells me to send report to Apple every time. I have found out that the Hard drive has a clone copy of Tiger 10.4.11 from another apple mac. Help needed.
    As I have no disks and I am going to buy Tiger 10.4 can I just fomat the drive and install a new copy of Tiger 10.4 (Black disk) ??????????
    I also have a G4 Powermac (agp graphics) 400Mhz running 9.2 - I have been told that I have to upgrade the operating system before I can install Tigger. Is this correct? and if so what operating system do I need to have.
    Help and advice would be most welcome as I am quite new to APPLE MACS.

    Moonkiss, welcome to Apple Discussions & the Mac community.
    The reboot message you are getting is a kernel panic, usually caused by a hardware problem. However, if you have an OS from another model Mac, that could be the problem.
    Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753). For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4) . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray) (See Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac? ). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.
    Also check this web store http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521
    After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
    Look at this link Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page
    http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/
    You can also download the Tiger Installation and Setup Guide
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/TigerInstall_SetupGuide.pdf
    When you reinstall Tiger using the retail DVD, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710
    Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.
    On your PM G4 AGP, you don't have to upgrade the operating system, but you do need to update the firmware (Boot ROM version in System Profiler). See Mac OS X: Available firmware updates
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117 If an update is required, the update must be installed (using OS 9) BEFORE you install OS X.

  • .Mac sync issues since 10.4.6?

    It is now impossible for me to update my iCal from my laptop (this worked perfectly before)--- now I get a sync error every time. It works fine from my G5 tower at home, BTW. So I took my laptop to the Mac store... guess what, it's not a laptop problem. The apple Genius (who was very helpful and kind) could not sync HIS own calendar from the store, meaning there is a .mac problem going on... no resultion yet! This is a real work issue for me, since having my calendar on my laptop is my lifeline for work... Anyone else facing this? Is this a Tiger issue?

    Perhaps you didn't see this message on the .Mac main page:
    .Mac sync services are currently unavailable. Changes made to synced information will be reflected when the problem is resolved. All other .Mac services are unaffected.

    Lastly....Zynga Poker.....I can not play it on my wireless at home anymore.....nor can I play it over my computer at home....once I go to a local establishment it pops right up and I am fine.....any ideas??
    Thanks,

    You could restore from a backup, but from what I have read, this security update is for a major vulnerability, so I would recommend trying to get Mail straightened out.

  • Apple mac g3 issues was in other forum

    I recently got an power mac g3. It was working ok with some problems but recently these problems increased. This seemed to have happens after I changed the cmos battery. I did fix the date and time issue with that but now my mac starts up very slowly oin all parts 75% of the time. Even on the apple and happy face. When it does come up quick I randomly does a 100% lockup with no way out. So I have decided I want to diagose it. Is there any site that can give me the old disagnostic cd that came with all macs. Like the little tech tool one or the specail motherboard one? Or a special osx cd? Any ideas of what the issue could be? HD maybe?

    If you recently acquired this G3, it may have had extensive hours of usage since it was manufactured in 1999. Hard drives can develop problems, related to the capability of the read/write heads to access data on the platter(s). If it has the original (very small) 6 GB hard drive, it may almost be filled to capacity, and that can cause problems running OS X. What version of the Mac OS is installed on the hard drive? How much memory is installed in it? Are the DIMMs either PC100 or PC133 SDRAM - and not PC66? Did you thoroughly blow out the interior, to remove any accumulated dust? You may also need to remove the large cooling fan to completely clean the blades. Do you know whether it has the revision 2 motherboard, or does it have the original version? In the bottom of the chassis, if there's a single piece of metal that runs front-to-rear (on which the hard drive is mounted), you probably have a revision 1 motherboard. If there is a rear hard drive carrier with the dual drive/stack mount design for two drives, one above the other, your G3 probably has a revision 2 motherboard. You should check out the "Accelerate Your Mac" web site, because there is a section dedicated to the B&W G3s and upgrades.

  • HT204413 Apple Mail SSL issues since last security update 9th March 2015

    Since the last security update (2015-002), Apple Mail keeps automatically re-checking the SSL box in my non-SSL email accounts. Other email clients are not affected (e.g. Thunderbird).
    Anyone else having this issue? Can the update be backed out?

    Thanks Eric! Since changing this setting last night, all has been ok

  • Nokia E52 email issue since firmware upgrade (031....

    Hi guys,
    Yesterday i successfully upgraded my E52 to latest firmware - 031.012. After upgrade i removed all previous email accounts (1 MFE, 1 pop and 1 imap) and start a new setup.
    i have to mention, that i double checked that the email client version has updated to 2.1.0 (the old one was 2.0.5). There are also several visual changes during the email setup.
    Now here is my issue: I recreated my exchange email account and it works perfectly, but when i try to add a second email account (Email->New), choose one of the providers from the list (Windows Live for example) and proceed here is what happens:
    1. I get a promt to enter email address and password
    2.Then "Validating settings" and "Downloading terms" progress bars start
    3. After "Downloading terms" progress bar completes i am returned at the page where have to choose email provider again
    Is there someone with similar issue as mine when has upgraded to 031.012? I hope someone will give me a clue how to fix it...
    Thx in advance!
    Regards,
    Emil

    On E52 or E72 (I haven't checked on other handsets), The problem occurs only if you try to add an account which is previously registered on Nokia Messaging Website http://email.nokia.com/ or has been added as an additional account within the Nokia Messaging Account.
    Before adding/creating a new email account on E52 or E72, make sure the account has not been registered at Nokia Messaging Website or if it has been registered then make sure to delete those accounts before you add them in your phone newly.
    You can delete account from Nokia Messaging Website by logging in with that account first on the website.
    Remember that you have two ways to remove the account from Nokia Messaging Website.
    1- If the account was used initially to signup on the website (actual Nokia Messaging Account) then you need to login with that account and Cancel the membership. It will delete all the additional accounts if you have added any.
    2- If the account was added as an additional account in an existing Nokia Messaging Account, then again you would need to login with the Nokia Messaging Account and delete the account from the list as needed.
    Note: If you are wandering that you never manually registered on the above website by visiting it on your computer, then keep in mind that the account is automatically registered on the website when you try to add or create the account on the Nokia Email Client on your phone. This could probably be the case that you would have registered once in the past via your Nokia Email client or directly on the Website. In either case you would need to remove the accounts from the Nokia Messaging.
    I haven't read this any where but this is what I have got during fixing and finding the solution. I have created accounts on E52 (more than once after upgrading firmwares) very easily by following the above procedure. What ever it is, a bug? or an intentional reason, I don't know.
    I hope it could fix your problems with the New Nokia Email client built-in with E52
    Edit:-----
    Note1: You would have to wait for a few minutes after removing the accounts from the Nokia Messaging Website, before trying to add in your phone. 
    Note2: First add the Ovi Mail Account(make sure you have it signed-up and configured on http://www.ovi.com/) in your phone and then add any of the other accounts later.

    I have an Iphone 4, I installed the update a few days ago and everything seemed fine. Until I went to install a new app and "the phone asked me to" enter my password for my Apple ID. I did but it kept telling me "incorrect, retry"

  • Email issue since OS4

    I have outlook on my laptop and previous to the software update I was able to view all email on my outlook that I may have viewed on my iphone. If I deleted it from outlook I could still keep it on my iphone. Now whenever I delete on my iphone it is not accessible on my outlook and vice versa. For example, I want to keep an email on my phone, but not on my outlook...once I delete it on outlook it is deleted from my phone as well. I have looked at advanced settings on both outlook and iphone, but maybe I am not doing something correctly. Can you please help.

    Is the email account a POP or IMAP account?
    Based on what you provided, it sounds like the account is an IMAP account and if so, this is normal with an IMAP account.

    Hi Devils,
    Answer is in below -
    1. Are those MAC addresses actual Wireless Hosts? i.e have you traced them?
    = Yes, those are actual wireless MAC add, I have check in zone director controller.
    2. Are the SSID's set to tunnel?
    =No
    3. Do you have one ZoneDirector or two?
    =Two, both of them are connected with core switch.
    I have been confirmed about that  if wireless users are roaming between two AP or more it will appear the same error msg, now what would be the solution. ????
    What extly the solution is?>
    Where should i implement the solution on switch or zone director?
    Please suggest!!!!!

  • Error message when setting up .Mac email account on iPhone

    Hi - I've tried Apple support, iphone support, and the submit a question/problem to the mac people with no luck. So, I'm taking my question to the next higher level -- you all.
    So here is the issue. I have had a mac email account for years. I buy my cool new iPhone a few weeks ago, and add my main apple mac email account to the iphone. All is good, and I can send/receive email messages from my main account. Then I add = three other email accounts I have on mac for internet/web surfing, and all is good there too. So, now I can access my 4 apple mac accounts on my iphone.
    Here is the problem -- a few days ago, my main apple mac account stopped working on my iphone. I can still send/receive email messages via web based mac mail, and I can access all my mail on my laptopn (just like usual). But, now, when I go to check my main mac account on my iphone it says unable to verify username or password.
    So, I have tried 100 different times now, all to no avail. I deleted it, rebooted it, tried it as a mac account, an IMAP account, POP account, etc.
    I have all the latest versions of itunes, iphone, etc.
    So, can anyone help me (pleeeese)......
    Thanks, Drew
