Apple Mail 1.3 and gmail issue. PLEASE HELP!

Hi All,
I just bought a g4 imac for my dad and am trying to set up apple mail for him with his gmail account. I have tried everything and I keep gettin this error no matter if it's set for POP or IMAP.
Applemail 1.3.11 Panther 10.3.9
Please help a brother out..
The POP server “pop.gmail.com” is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the “Incoming Mail Server” field. If it still doesn’t respond, the server might be temporarily unavailable.
If you continue, you may not be able to receive any email.

I have had a lot of trouble with the Apple Mail application and OS 10.3.9 and finally just downloaded Mozilla's Thunderbird mail program and it automatically set itself up to work with my .mac mail account. Maybe that would work for you too.
You can get Thunderbird here, for free.

Here are a couple of sites that can help you set it up with bells and whistles.

How do I synch iPhone 4S, Apple Mail 3.6 and Gmail?

I believe this is the simplest way to phrase this:
I want everything that I do to my Gmail account, no matter where I do it (iPhone 4S, Apple Mail 3.6 on a MacBook Pro, and Gmail on the web) to synch across those three platforms.
Now on to the more complicated part and multiple questions:
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the only way for iPhone 4S, Apple Mail 3.6 and Gmail web to behave completely "in synch" is to use ONLY IMAP...and therefore, the first step I took was to DISABLE POP on Gmail web, and ENABLE IMAP on Gmail web.
Problem #1: My Apple Mail account was originally set up as POP. Therefore, I created a "second" gmail account in Apple Mail, using the same username and password, but choosing to use IMAP rather than POP. So now MAILBOXES in Apple Mail has 2 "sub inboxes" under my Inbox, which I named "Gmail Pop (for archival purposes only)" and "Gmail - IMAP." There is also "DRAFTS" (unchanged), "SENT" (unchanged), and "TRASH" with 2 "sub trash cans" - Gmail Pop and Gmail IMAP.
* Since POP is disabled, at this point is it safe to completely delete the entire POP account from my Apple Mail? If I do that, will "Gmail Pop" disappear as a "sub inbox" and "sub trash can"? I would like to have only 1 INBOX and TRASH under MAILBOX in Apple Mail.
* Once I am ONLY using IMAP on my MacBrook Pro, what happens when I have no wireless / internet connection (for example, when I'm out of my condo and riding on the train)? Is there any way to actually download my Inbox, Drafts, Sent and Trash folders to Apple Mail on my Mac using only IMAP - so that I have the option to work offline?
Problem #2: I figured out how to change the setting on my iPhone so that I can actually delete messages and not just archive them to "All Mail" on Gmail Web and make them disappear from the iPhone Inbox. The issue is that on all 3 devices - iPhone 4S, Apple Mail 3.6 AND Gmail, with IMAP enabled I now have 3 "trash folders": I'm not exactly sure where everything is going depending where it's deleted from, but I ONLY want it to go to TRASH (and not the weird [Gmail]Trash folder nor the newly created "Deleted Messages" option in Gmail Web) - regardless of how it's deleted.
* How do I get rid of the [Gmail]Trash and Deleted Messages options across all 3 clients (iPhone, Apple Mail and Gmail web) - so that whether I'm running my thumb over the message in my Inbox and choosing "Delete" (iPhone version) / pressing the "Delete" button on my Mac (Apple Mail version) / checking the box next to the message in my inbox and then clicking the Trash icon that comes up (Gmail version) - so that no matter how I'm deleting my mail, all that happens is that it goes into just one Trash area (on all 3 clients) - so that it gets permanently deleted after 30 days....Basically, I don't want messages lingering in a bunch of different trash folders, where some are permanently deleted and some aren't - I just want 1 "centralized" trash area!
Problem #3: In Apple Mail --> Mail --> Preferences --> Mailbox Behaviors: If I want the solutions for problem #1 and problem #2 to work, which boxes should be checked? I don't really understand why you would or would not put everything on "the server"... nor do I understand what "server" they are talking about.
Problem #4: Since I've started using IMAP on my Mac, my internet connection in general, as well as my Apple Mail, has slowed down quite a bit. Will this go away once I completely rid my computer of the POP files?
Problem #5: Doesn't it seem pretty simple that someone would want all the same things to happen to you whether you're using Gmail web, Apple Mail, or your iPhone? Why don't Google and Apple work together to make this a MUCH simpler process?

I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums.

I also got this email and had my phone "automatically" removed. But luckily I set up a extra mobile number as a trust device. You should also have a generated backup key saved somewhere?

Apple Mail 3.2 and GMail IMap

Hi,
Yes, I know this topic has been discussed on this forum before, but I have not 100% been able to put the pieces together.
I can get Apple Mail 3.2 running Gmail via IMAP with no problem by following the instructions on the google site:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=81379
Then I set my account as directed by Google for recommended account settings:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78892
I am able to send and receive email. But I see some quirks:
1. When I send a message, it is not stored in the Apple Mail "Sent" box. It just remains empty. Why?
2. When I sent my first message the "Store Sent Messages on the Server" became checked even though I unchecked it during account setup. Why?
3. If I have multiple gmail accounts that I set up in Apple Mail 3.2, will they all be under one Apple Mail 3.2 "Inbox" combined?
Thanks for your help.

Hello Hal:
I think you will get a better answer to your question by contacting G-mail. In my case, I use AOL mail in Apple's mail application. AOL catches the vast majority of spam/junk and it is placed in a spam folder. The few that get through seem to be trapped by Apple's mail and placed in the Junk folder.

HTC Mail for Android and Gmail Issue

Greetings. When using the HTC Mail App which came preinstalled with my phone I have not been able to receive or send mail from my default account (Gmail) since September.
I get one of two different error messages in the notification Bar.
When trying to send = "Unable to Send Mail The account setting is incorrect" ----when I click this the Edit Account Screen pops up. It asks for:
Email Address
Account Name
Your Name
I type these in, hit Finish Set Up and I get a pop up that says the account settings have been saved. But nothing changes.
I try again this time opting to click the update password box. Hoping that once I enter my correct password for the gmail account that all will be well. Nope...I get an "Warning: 401 Unauthorized
When trying to retrieve....I get an Alert box that Says Log In Failed.
This gmail account works perfectly fine on my PC and on the third party installed gmail app on the phone.
I can't delete the account as it was the one used upon initial set up of the phone.
The only thing I can think is that I did do a Cache wipe back around the time this issue started. I did this because my wifes Incredible was having memory errors and I thought that I was being preemptive of the same issues with my Inc2.
I have searched far and wide for a remedy and have had no luck. I would really rather not have to perform a factory reset. Please help?

Hi Irishbri!
Email access on your device is very important! I myself use email on daily basis, so I know how frustrating it can be when your receiving error messages. Let's get this fixed. Google recently released a new verification process for Gmail accounts that allows the account to become more secure. The process is called 2-step verification, 2- step verification allows the customer to ONLY sign into certain Gmail programs with their normal password. Other applications requires the user to actually go onto a website to create a temporary password. You can turn off this feature http://bit.ly/SMZaWg. Once you have turned off this feature attempt to add the gmail account to the device. Keep me posted.
Thanks,

Drag and drop issue, please help.

I can no longer drag and drop photos within photoshop elements 12. When working with a layer, I want to move it to a layer within another existing file, and no longer have the option. The only way I have fixed the issue in the past is uninstall and reinstall the program. I've read other forum posts and followed the instructions by resetting preferences and it does not work.
Does anyone have any solutions to this issue? Please help!

With both files open, simplest to tile them side by side, you should be able to drag the layer from the source file onto the target file. So long as it shows the 'grasping hand' you can release the mouse and it should add the layer to the target.
So what is happening now on your system? When you drag the layer to the target what icon is shown - 'grasping hand', 'no entry', something else?
Cheers,
Neale

ITunes and Quicktime issue (Please Help)

So last night I download the update for iTunes. Everything seemed to be going fine, I didn't have any problems. This morning I turn on my computer and try to run iTunes and it gives me an error message, an dwon't even open iTunes. Not only that, I can't run any Quicktime file, it gives me the same message. I downloaded the installer again and attempted to repair iTunes. It said I was sucessful, but when I tried opening iTunes or Quicktime the error still appeared. This is really frustrating, this is what I get for updating? Someone please help!

you'll probably want to run the standalone quicktime install
also, what is the error message that you are getting?

Wifi and time issues please help.

My daughters iPod touch 5th generation is constantly resetting the time incorrectly, I had it on auto time in the correct time zone but it keeps eventually resetting to the wrong time then I tried manually inputting the correct time but it eventually reset again to the wrong time. It's also having issues picking up the wifi, we have 5 other i devices that have no problem with wifi so I know this problem is just specific to this particular unit. This has been an ongoing issue since day she got it Xmas 2012. I've tried restoring several times but to no avail. PLEASE can someone help. We spent a lot of money on this device and she can't use it to its full potential! :(

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

Driver and software issue, please help!

I am having an issue. I am running itunes v 7.2 and ever since, I get a message saying "disk burner or software not found". I have tried everything listed on these boards, including rebooting, updating the GEARS driver, etc. And nothing worked! I could only do the 32 bit GEARS though, the other two said my system don't suport them. Apple needs to come up with a fix. It looks like a lot of people have this issue! It is also a turnoff to itunes for people, including myself as I am considering droping itunes all together if this issue is not resolved. Even if it means I loose the songs I bought. I will just have to buy them again with another program and burn them on a program that works. I ran the diagnostic and this is what I got:

Urgent and typical issue- Please help!!

Dear All,
I have a BOM material(say M) which is made up of 3 components(say A, B and C).
I procure component A from 3 different countries(T1, T2 andT3), component B from 2 different countries(T4 and T5) and component C from 4 different countries(T6, T7, T8 and T9).I process them and prepare a finished good M(as mentioned above) and export it. I want to track the country of origin of each of the components of this BOM.How can I achieve this?
To make my question more clear..If I am exporting material M, I should be able to track all the 9 countries(T1..T9) because M is made up of 3 components procured from 9 countries(in all).
Since the problem is critical, I would appreciate your urgent help on this.Thanks!!

Hi Venkat,
Thankyou so much for your response.I came to know about you beforehand, from one of your students whom you are grooming on GTS.As the problem was really critical I tried to contact you, to seek your help, but couldn't reach you.Can you please mail me your contact number on [email protected]
I need to talk to you for a few minutes to discuss this.

Reinstalling iPhoto : 08 and 09 Issues - PLEASE Help

I has iPhoto 08 that came with my MBP last year.
Then upgraded to iLife 09.
iPhoto 09 started to have problems since I upgraded to SL.
So I read in Apple support forum and decided to do a fresh install of iPhoto.
Uninstalled iPhoto 09. Removed all necessary files. Didn't touch the library.
Used my MAC OS X Install Disc 1 and 2 to reinstall iPhoto.
But now it says I have used a newer version of iPhoto to modify the library and iPhoto quits.
Uninstalled iPhoto again.
Ran my iLife 09 DVD. It installed iPhoto.
But it still says I have used a newer version of iPhoto to modify the library and iPhoto quits.
What should I do?!

Thank you sooooo much! You are just fantastic! 35000 posts? Even Jobs could not have managed that
Btw, can you tell me why my MBP SL trackpad is soooo darn sluggish and does not want to respond as well after upgrading to SL from L?
Thanks a lot once again. iPhoto issue has been resolved - at least it is working again. Now I have to see if the previous problems are there or not.

G530 - driver and key issues--please help!

Hey, everyone.
I'm having some issues. A while ago I upgraded to Windows 7 (32 bit) Home Premium, found out that I could no longer change the screen brightness. This was my only issue with the upgrade. So, I suffered through, later caught a virus through a bad download, and did a complete system restore, ridding myself of everything and restored back to Vista.
I recently--just a few hours ago--upgraded again to Windows 7, updated my BIOS, and thought everything was peachy. It is not so. The number keys (not the 'number pad') 1-0 do not work at all--only 7-0 if the number lock function is activated. I've triple-checked and restored my keyboard options to US standard but nothing doing. All of the other keys work.
As well as suffering through that, I've discovered that a driver I didn't realize I had, GuardedID, is not functioning properly, warning me with every few keystrokes: "GuardedID keyboard driver is not responding. More detail on the error is available in the Event Viewer under Manage in the toolbar. GuardedID is now turned Off." Not only am I irritated with this message popping up every so often but I'm becoming paranoid.
There is no trace of GuardedID on my computer--none that I can find. I tried searching online, finding software that I have to purchase but I am assuming that I would have had it 'free' if I hadn't even know I had it. Any kind of help would be amazing.
Thank you!

Hi binni,
Welcome to Lenovo Forum!
In regard to GuardedID, i'm not sure this community knowledge base article is helpful but you may want to take a look: Typed letters appearing as increasing numbers ( 0,1,2,3,4,5)
On another isuse about brightness control, there is another article about it that will be helpful for you if your machine type is type 4151 or 4446. G530 cant change brightness on Windows 7 Professional
Please feel free to search around the community knowledge base for more info
Hope these help!
Thanks!
