What happens when you try to download those apps ? You haven't got an app age restriction set in Settings > General > Restrictions on your iPad ? If you are getting an error message then what does it say ?

Mail content does not load in Apple Mail 10.8.2 using exchange server

About 10 am this morning Apple Mail stopped working. Initially, no emails could be sent or received even though connection doctor found nothing wrong with the internet connection. At 4pm, email would load but with just the sender and the subject - no content will load. Is anyone else having this problem with Mail?

I'm missing mail in my Inbox from my .live account in Apple Mail. I'm using mbox with my hotmail account. If that made any sense?!

I'm all of a sudden missing old mail in my inbox labeled .live - I used mBox to set up my hotmail account with Apple Mail. It's not in the trash nor on my hotmail account online anymore. Hmmmm??? I already tried to rebuild and my mbox folder in the library seems fine. Anyone?? I only have about a month's worth of mail which made me think I had mistakenly selected some 'time frame' for keeping inbox messages but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

How do I eliminate thousands of e-mails in Apple mail, which I never use or look at, but which is using up I cloud space

How do I easily delete thousands of e-mails in Apple Mail which I never look at (because I use my local server for e-mails) but which is using up space in the Cloud? Thank you

Try one of these feed readers if the build-in Firefox reader doesn't suit you.

Apple Mail won't save "Use Autodiscover service" with Exchange

Apple Mail is discovering the wrong servers when connecting to Exchange. I want to set it manually so I uncheck "Use Autodiscover service" and put in the correct servers. But when I quit and restart Mail, it automatically rechecks "Use Autodiscover service" and automatically picks up the wrong servers again. Can some one suggest why it won't save my setting and how to make the unchecked setting stay unchecked?

Well first, I'd recommend your IT folks configure Autodiscover to return the correct results ;-)

When replying to a message in Apple Mail it does not use the address to which the original was sent

I use Apple Mail with Mountain Lion (10.8.2). When I reply to an email it does not, as it used to do, use the email address to which the email was sent. Nor does it use my nominated email address fro creating emails. (It simply selects the first address in my account list (iCloud) and I am unable to change the list order and in any case this is not a solution.)
I cannot find a setting to have replies sent from the address I received it in.

Here we go. The problem is how the sender replied to a message then sent to you. He/she inserted the reply above the quoted text, and added a sig delimiter '-- '.
When you reply to the message you received, TB treats everything below the sig delimiter as signature, and cuts it off. This is the intended behavior.
http://email.about.com/od/emailsignaturenetiquette/qt/Use_the_Standard_Email_Signature_Delimiter.htm
So ideally the reply should be inserted below the quoted text. Since this is beyond your control, use 'Forward' instead of 'Reply' as a workaround.
You'll then need to add the recipients manually in the 'To' field.

Mailing list in Flash using Godaddy

Hey Flash Experts –
Ive got a new question that I am having trouble finding the
solution to.
I had a email.php mailing form all set up but it wont work
with my hosting server because I am using godaddy and they require
you to use asp and their particular gdform.asp for form sending. I
check out the form and am not sure how to translate my php into asp
– any ideas? I could not figure it out and have spent a while
on google trying to see if anyone else has. Basically all I want to
do is set up a mailing list form where the user can simply enter in
their email address and the email address will show up in my email
account. I am not too familiar with mailing lists which is what
brings me to this forum. I was wondering if anyone had any
suggestions on how to make this work in the best possible way.
Should I use the gdform.asp ? a third party ? or is it possible to
set up a form someone directly in flash? My site is all flash so
this would be embedded in one of the swf pages. Any ideas,
suggestions, comments would be awesome – thanks a lot for
your time and help!!
Best,
Matt

Just make sure you have all the files you need on your local
machine before switching platforms because everything on the server
will be erased when you switch. Usually with GoDaddy, in order to
get email php scripts to work, you will have to go into your
GoDaddy account settings and make sure there is an email address in
the "php form" section. I think that's what the section is
called.

Apple Mail won't connect to GoDaddy pop server

Hi all,
I have entered all the correct server information to connect to GoDaddy's pop server but Mail won't connect. I can connect to the smtp server without a problem. The same settings work perfectly in Entourage, so my information is correct. Has anyone else experienced this issue and fixed it?
Here are the settings:
POP: pop.secureserver.net
AUTHENTICATION: password
Thanks,
John

Mine stopped wotking on the 9th, under the mail app on the left hand side, if you have triangles with ! marks in them, perform a left click and start "Mail Connection Doctor" This may help pinpoing the issue.
Mine is failing at trying to connect on port 143.
This worked for me, go the accounts settings window and in each gmail account enter the following info
Advanced Tab
IMAP Path Prefix enter [Gmail]
If you then tick "Use SSL" this should make the port 993
Authentication shold be set to "password"
Then save these settings, finally email is received, hope this helps.
Let is know how you get on.

Apple Mail won't remember "Use this mailbox for ..." state

I have all my devices up-to-date now, with my two Macs having the newest versions of Lion installed.
I am trying to set up all my devices (2 Macs, iPhone, iPad) in a way that all my sent mails, drafts and deleted messages are always stored on the server.
To do this, I have to define folders like the "Sent" folder in each email account (on the server) as the one to be used as the Sent folder on the Mac - quite easy. (From the Mailbox menu, I go to "Use this mailbox for ..." and then define what it should be used for).
This worked fine on the MacBook Pro, and the iPhone/iPad (in the same iOS settings).
Somehow though, whenever I define this on my Mac Pro Lion installation, it will revert to the old state (save them only on the local disk) whenever I restart the program. It will go back to saving the sent emails and drafts on the local disk, and all the folders reappear in the dropdown menu under the individual accounts on the right-hand side in Mail.
It takes quite a long time to quite Mail too (although I am using an SSD), and Safari has been acting up lately as well (it goes back to a application state from January 4 whenever I restart it, so I see tabs and windows I browsed on that day). This might have to do with the fact that I copied my Keychain from my other Mac to the new one, but I can't figure out why ...
Any help would be greatly appreciated, it's driving me nuts because I need my email to be in sync at all times!

Who is your email provider? I only ask because depending on who it is, you may or may not be able to do anything about the next paragraph.
What method are you using to fetch your mail from the server - POP or IMAP? For what it sounds like you're asking to do, you should be using IMAP (which will keep things in check on all devices in all locations.) POP tends to be an all or nothing type of thing.
Any time you start transferring things from other Macs (like preferences), you're asking for things to start acting odd.

My Apple Remote stopped working. I tried to use the serialnumber to submit it to repair but the serialnumber isnt working neither and no luck on finding the warranty paper. What now?

How to prevent Apple Mail from downloading old emails from Yahoo (Imap)

I started using Apple Mail and decided to use it to access my yahoo mail. Apple mail worked well in setting up my account but the problem is I have more than 10,000 emails in my yahoo account and Apple mail is downloading each and every one of them. Even if i choose for it not to download attachments, it will still take a long time to download. Is there a way or Mail to just download emails starting now, or at least within this year only?

Good question. I have the same issue. Too many old Yahoo emails. My iMac struggles to download the email to the client and it doesn't work - it seems to time out and stop downloading the old mail.

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.

Switching from Mailsmith to Apple Mail app

Ok, I've had a problem recently with Mailsmith, though in general I prefer it to Apple's Mail. I like a text only mail app with everything else as attachments which one can choose to open or not. That said, I recently messed up: my elderly G4 MDD was slowing down and I got worried that it was on its last legs. In order not to lose recent emails, I opened Mailsmith on my MacBook Pro, something I usually don't do from home but only while travelling, and downloaded available mail from my various accounts. Since then, both on the MBP and on the G4 I have been receiving duplicate emails from my dot mac accounts (main address and alias). This is not occurring on my other (ISP/web hosted) accounts, only on the mac ones. I wrote to the Mailsmith support but got no satisfaction and not much interest. I also posted the issue here but got no responses. At this point I am considering moving my Mailsmith mailboxes - all 31 of them - to Apple Mail and trying to use that as my main mail app. I have converted all the mailboxes to mbox format and succeeded in importing them into Mail, but they show up as "on my Mac" import 4. Is there a way to make them my main mailboxes in the Mail app? I realize I will have to go though each and duplicate the rules/filters so new mail goes to the proper mailbox, but is this possible? How?
Thanks for any useful suggestions.
cheers.
ncm

Ok I'll try that. I imagine I have to recreate each mailbox within Mail and then drag the contents of the old/imported mailboxes to their new equivalents.
Mail is using IMAP for Apple mail and POP for my other accounts. I'm still not comfortable with IMAP as I've only ever used POP so far but I suppose it is useful for viewing and keeping email up to date on different devices and computers...but I do want copies of everything on my Mac. Don't really trust having it all only in the cloud.
