Apple mail pop up when turn on computer

My Apple mail popup when i Turn on my computer...how do i disengage it.

When you log back in do this:
Go to the Apple Menu bar and click the Apple Logo, then click on System Preferences.
Inside the System Preferences menu look for the "Users & Groups" icon.
Once that menu is opened, you should see two buttons. One is called "Password" and the other is "Login Items". Click "Login Items".
In there you should see a list of programs that launch at boot up.
Find Apple Mail, click it, and then press the "minus" ("-") sign.
Close System Preferences.
Try rebooting your Mac. When you log back in Apple Main should not launch.
Hope this helps!

  • Upgrading to Lion, used cloud, now my apple mail no longer syncs on my computer. Can't get any apple mail to come in. Mail window not working properly. Connection to Internet fine. Anyone know how to fix this issue? All worked fine until I opted for Cloud

    Hello,
    I am using a MacBook Pro. Bought in April 2011. Upgraded to Lion, OSX 10.7.3
    I have an Apple mail account that synced with a gmail account in my Mail Program.
    I then chose the CLOUD activation. I can find my mail if I go to cloud.com but I no longer get any Apple mail delivered to my Mail program on my computer. My gmail account syncs just fine. In fact, the Mail program doesn't even open any longer when I double click. I have to go to the Mail menu, select Message Viewer to even view my mail program now. The Internet connection is testing fine using the Connection Doctor. But when the Connection Doctor program just whirs for eternity and never finishes checking the accounts.
    Is this a bug? Do you have to set up your mailbox again for Apple mail to get it to sync after having mail hosted on the Cloud? Or does hosting on the Cloud mean I now always have to go the hassle of logging in at the cloud site to even access my Apple mail?
    Any ideas out there? I am sure there are Mac geniuses, the real ones, floating around in cyber space and would love to get some intelligent directions to solve this new issue.
    Cheers
    Anne

    I would like to add that Comcast is my internet provider. Perhaps that is part of the issue although the Connection Doctor confirms the mail box is connecting to the internet. No other function processes when Connection Doctor program is used to find the source of the issue. I have read forum posts but am unable to find a way to get my Apple mail to be delivered to my computer. It worked fine up until I chose to transfer mail to the Cloud. My mail account is a .mac account.
    Still hoping someone out there can help me.
    thanks,
    anne

  • How make my internet open/start immediately when turn on computer?

    How make my internet open/start immediately when turn on computer?
    ps: using FFox, if it makes any difference.
    Don't think I wont't thank you, Cuz
    I will.

    Thank you verry much, HipHop.
    FFox has long been on my doc.
    I clicked it and it shows i have instructed it to 'Open at Login'.
    Same thing with Apple/Prefs/Accounts/Login items where it shows i have instructed it, and also Safari now, to Open at Login (and not checked to Hide).
    But still it never opens.
    Safari opens at login. But not Firefox.
    And it's not that the 2 are conflicting, cuz
    I had this problem with FFox long time when started this question;
    and I only just the other day added Safari to open at login cuz I was advised to try it just to see if Saf wd open on Login.
    I did contact my isp, dslextreme, but they couldn't help me other than the advice I've already gotten here, said not their specialty, that I should ask Apple or FFox (I'll try that).
    Thanks again, everybody.
    I still dream of what I will do with all the time I will save someday by not having to actually click on the FFox icon to start it. Call me a dreamer, but I'm not the only one (or am i?)
    ps: Are you really hip hop?

  • How to automatically open selected docs when turn on computer?

    How to open automatically selected docs when turn on computer? (Text Edit docs particularly, and others)
    I wist not that I must tediously select and open my same usual documents one by one, each time I turn on computer to work.
    I either have to find my usual documents under "File/OpenRecent"
    &/or search through the FINDER for them.
    I wonder if anybody else has every had this problem before, and found a solution?
    Has modern technology advanced to the point where this can be done automatically?
    (Now it just occurred to me that
    I could put my 'usual documents' (or Alias) into a separate Envelope
    in the finder, and
    then select them all at once and click to Open all at the same time.
    But is that the best or only solution?)
    There's a grateful thank you, two (2) "Helpful's", and 1 "Solver" award to be given out. Good luck.

    Cool. Coolidge, indeed. So wise.

  • Apple Mail Pop Server Configuration

    Hi all,
    It's not often I post on here but here we go. I have been using Macs ever since the Lisa Electronic Office and have always been perplexed by one strange quirk of the Apple Mail account configuration process. This quirk is now becoming extremely troublesome.
    I use BT/Yahoo (I'm not talking about the famous password rejection problem). One main account and several sub-accounts which, for all intents and purposes, can be considered as separate accounts.
    Now the problem arises because, while each has a separate email address, they all use the same pop server settings. ie. mail.btinternet.com.
    Mail will not allow me to use two accounts with the same pop settings. I can set up and verify the account (doesn't stay on-line because SSL is set and the port is wrong) but when I come make a change and save it I get the message:
    Invalid Directory
    The account path /Users/fredbloggs/Library/Mail/V2/[email protected]@mail.btinternet.com is already being used by the account “Another One”
    Obviously I've changed the account names. Another One is one of my other accounts. I've got one working by using pop.btinternet.com but I've run out of working aliases. I should be able to set up 10 sub accounts and access them all with Apple Mail. IMAP works OK but that is something I don't wish to use for a number of reasons.
    Anybody else come across this?
    I can do all this with Entourage (horrible) and Outlook which I do not intend to buy. Why does Apple make life so difficult sometimes?

    OK Folks,
    To save confusion and to all those people who think I am using the same email address for everything, here they are.
         British Telecomm Residential
              [email protected]          (USAAF 381st Bomb Group Heavy)
              [email protected]     (My company)
              [email protected]          (Master Account for everything else)
         British Telecomm Business
              [email protected]          BT Business E-Mail - I don't use
         Others I have are:
              [email protected]
              [email protected]
              [email protected]
    [email protected] currently exists as an IMAP account which works but something I would rather not have.
    As you can see, they are all separate and distinct.
    As I said before, all hese work just fine with Entourage (nasty and a dead product) and Outlook (something I'm not prepared to buy when the Apple offering should do it all for me and integrates really nicely with iCal, Address Book, Notes etc.
    Thank you everybody for trying to help and thanks Defcom but, as you thought, that article is really old hat now.
    I am now going to open a large bottle and sit in that darkened room.
    If I now get flooded with spam, I know where it's come from.
    Goodnight, Good Morning or G'Day depending on where you're from..

  • Unexplained incompatibility with Apple Mail / pop services

    I am a technician that supports numerous clients using Apple Mail.
    I am increasingly running into compatibility problems with Apple Mail.
    Certain pop accounts will not download at all, for instance 123-reg.co.uk (pophost.123-reg.co.uk).
    The app seems to look for mail but doesn't see anything there, despite there being mail to download.
    I have also had problems with pop.dsl.pipex.com. My only alternative at present is to use Entourage and I certainly don't want to recommend MS products to our customers.
    Can someone please help, this defies regular troubleshooting.

    However, bearing in mind that Entourage works fine,
    it would imply that the problem is Apple Mail rather
    than numerous different mail servers.
    Even if the problem is something with Mail, probably only someone actually using these servers you mention is going to be able to find out, working with the people who run them, what is going wrong.
    Have you told the mail server operators/support staff about your problems and have they given any response?
    Have you tried Thunderbird, which is a popular non-MS alternative to Mail?
    Have you seen any other reports in this forum about other users having similar problems?
    Surely you
    guys should be investigating this as a point of
    concern for Apple?
    You are just talking to other users like yourself in these forums, not to Apple.

  • Apple Mail locks up when composing new messages

    After 10.9.2, I am unable to send mail from my Apple Mail App! I can read, but creating a new message invokes the spinning rainbow icon of death (which stays around for hours if you let it -- I've verified this).
    Anybody have any ideas on how to fix or what the cause is?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • Need help with Apple Mail POP Google App Settings

    I am using Google Apps Account for the domain name xyz.travel
    I have set-up POP Account on Apple Mail for my Email address [email protected] with the Google Mail settings of POP and SMTP correctly. No Problem.
    However, in my Email Address [email protected] there are 3000+ Emails which is more than 3 years old. I do not want all these Emails to be uploaded on my Apple Mailbox. It will take ages for all these 3000+ Emails to be uploaded in my Apple Mailbox. I only want to be able to send Emails from the Apple Mailbox and receive the Emails that I received on [email protected] henceforth.
    Can someone please help me ?

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Why does my old apple id pop up when i text

    I changed my apple ID to a new email and now when I text the old apple ID pops up. No rhyme or reason to it, randomly. I've gone through everything I can find/think of and changed to my new apple ID but still this old one appears.
    Why does apple make everything so connected until you need things to be connected? I wish that there had been an automatic update to my iphone and ipad when i changed my apple ID email. You literally have to go through hoops for all your stuff. blergh.
    thanks if you have any answers!

    You need to re-sign in with your new Apple ID?

  • Apple mail strips text when displaying an incoming email

    I receive emails associated with a club I belong to from an email reflector. Club members send emails to the reflector and the reflector resends the email to each club member including me of course
    This works fine so long as the email to (and from) the reflector contains either only text or only an attachment (as in a photograph). However if the distributed email contains both text and a photo Apple Mail is unwilling to display the text ... only the photograph appears. Which as you might well imagine is rather annoying.
    So how do I know that the email is displayed with the accompanying text stripped away? Well if I look at the raw source (View --> Message --> Raw Source) I see the following:
    --001a11c249488ce20604f4d3bcb6

    I changed the text to protect the identify of the sender. In Apple Mail all I see is the picture (IMG_0918.JPG) and all the text that goes with it is missing.
    From what I can tell from comments on the reflector, some other email clients exhibit the same problem (they also strip the text) while others do not. So maybe the email is not being formatting properly by the reflector. That could be. But files on the web have mal-formed HTML all the time, yet browsers deal with the mal-formed HTML without stripping the text away as seems to be the case here.
    It seems to be that Apple Mail sould be able to display the text which in contained in the raw source.
    Any solution (other that looking at these email in raw source to read thei missing textual contentt)? If an Apple employee is reading this maybe you could pass this along to whoever is prosponsible for keeping track of Apple Mail bugs.
    Thanks.

    I design and code a lot of HTML emails, and plain text remains an important feature for many clients.
    This seems to be a recent change to Mac Mail. Previously, there was an option under View --> Message to show the plain text alternative.
