Apple Mail Will Not Work with DSL
I have a MacBook Pro i7 running OS 10.7.4 (Lion). My version of Apple Mail is 5.2. The server names are set correctly. Both incoming and outgoing. The numbers? I dunno. POP3 is sets itself for 995 with SSL enabled. SMTP is set for 465 with SSL enabled. Needless to say, there is a ton of mail on the Verizon web mail page, but none of it will download into Apple Mail. Verizon Mail seems to set itself up automatically on my iPhone, but that's not where I need it. I need it at the desktop. However, the server numbers seem to automatically change on me every time I turn my back.
Just what are the proper server numbers now, and do we need to enable SSL with them?
Thanks a bunch.

Dr. John,
Login at www.verizon.net, and let us know if it's a combined verizon/yahoo email or just plain verizon mail.
the servers are different if it's one or the other.
also try the email fix tool at their websitte. www.verizon.com/repair

Apple Mail will not work without webmail login
Spontaneously 2 weeks ago I got a triangle next to my Apple Mail Inbox and could neither send nor receive email. I have used ATT for DSL and my email address for over two years without this problem. I have checked all my settings with ATT and they claim they have even "rebuilt" my mailbox and all is good. But unless I use a browser to log into webmail first, Mail will not work. The user name/password/port info is all correct, but Mail cannot connect. Even when the "keep me logged in" box is checked when I log in to webmail, Mail will stop working if I close out the browser and put the computer to sleep. This is driving me crazy.
I've had what sounds very similar issue with another DSL ISP: Qwest.
Ran both Comcast & Qwest simultaneously (alternately, not really concurrently)
for awhile & got sporadic blips & failures to connect.
I never could establish conclusively whether it was the ISP, or a local client problem.
I think its the ISP. Had other email annoyances with them that never quite got resolved
Sometimes my mail was left on the webmail server & never got delivered & would do so, same as you describe.
Its never anyone's fault, or problem...
I doubt they'd tell you if it was an issue on their end, if it not resolved. -

I have reset my account ID but it still does nit work on my IPAD.

I have a yahoo mail account address - Mail will not work with that?
I tried to mail an email using my Yahoo mail account address. Mail sent it back to me saying that Yahoo rejected it.
Do I just keep using mailing from Yahoo instead of Mail to keep things working?
When I click on an e-mail address Mail does come up as my default mail program. How can I change that back to Yahoo using Safari? I've asked that question of Yahoo, but they just tell me to use Firefox, which I do not want to do. I like Safari and will simply fight the Mail program back if I have to. There must be a way to get it under control though - I hope.
I do use Mail to back up notes from my iPhone. It does work for that just fine.
TIA,
Ken"Second Step: Launch Mail/Preferences/General/Default email reader and choose Google Notifier.app from the list. Now the mailto links will also bring up a blank email, ready for you to fill out and send by using your Gmail account. "
Here is Mail getting in the way again. I appreciate your information, I downloaded Notifier and got to the point of above, needing to go to preferences in Mail. Mail will not let me go to preferences unless I give Mail an e-maill account to service. I do not want Mail to service an account. Mail is a nasty obtrusive program that wants to be in the driver's seat of my computer system. If I give Mail my gmail account set up again, using that italian program that also is a hack to my system, I will need to do that just to access Mail preferences so I can tell Mail that it is okay to use Gmail?
Something is fishy in Denmark to be sure.
I'm going to delete Notifier.app until I am able to see what gives with Mail.
Thanks, I thought that was going to be the answer. Mail has stopped me in my tracks again.
OOoommmm..... (counting to 10)

Later post, I think this post has also taken it that I want to use Mail, Read my many statements, over a dozen by now, that I do not want to use Mail. I want to compose my outgoing mail in GMail. I want GMail to be my default mail program. I wan Apple Mail to Die! (at this point, that seems impossible to accomplish.)
It's simple, but I will repeat and repeat. I simply want to be able to click on a link, like a link in Craigslist to respond to an ad, and have the GMail compose e-mail come up ready to respond to the Craigslist ad.
Ken
EVen more frustration now, I tried the notifier icon in the menu bar and selected compose mail and it tried to open up Apple Mail. How can I get rid of Apple Mail and let my system know that I want the GMail account to come up to compose my email in GMail (what I was trying to do with Yahoo until I got nowhere with Yahoo, now I'm trying to see if I can get GMail to work as my default mail program. -

Apple Mail will not work at my office
I have Mail setup to receive my gmail email and it works perfectly...when I'm not on my office's network (at work obviously). It may be an office thing, but is there any way I can get Mail to receive my email when I'm at work?
OSX 10.5.5
Mail 3.5
Macbook Pro (early 2008)Hi there... I have the same problem. My MBP works fine at home, but at work Mail does not connect, nor can I use MobileMe to update my iWeb website. What is up with the work setup that causes this to happen?? Internet and Entourage with an exchange account work fine at work when I switch to my Work location, which is behind a proxy server (with 8080 as it suffix).
The error message in Mail is:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “.Mac” or try again.
The server error encountered was: The server “mail.mac.com” cannot be contacted on port 993.
When I try to publish my website I get a login window for MobileMe then "an error was returned from the server. Please try again later"
As I said, when I go home with the same computer and take the proxy settings off, everything works fine.
I know this may have something to do with the network at my work, but I am the ONLY person with a Mac, and the IT guy has no clue about whats up (and doesn't care).

I had a repair done on my MacBook Pro and had to have a new hard drive installed. The Apple Auth Repair Shop then updated the OS from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5. Now my iPhoto v 9.2.3 will not open and it sounds like it will not work with this OS. Can you please advise?
You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
(Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
you will be running a fresh install of OS X. You can now begin the update process
by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. -
My old e-mail address was SHAW XXXXX.and worked very well with Thunder Bird mail. I recently switched to new ISP Bell and my new address is XXXXXX However with several attempts with techs ,Thunder Bird will not work with my new ISP. I had to start using Outlook.com and Outlook Express 6 for e-mail,but I really liked Thunder Bird and have numerous e-mails stored in it that I cannot import.
Outlook Express 6 is outdated and because I am running Windows XP it will not give me a newer version.I find Outlook.com confusing to me. Can you helpWhy don't you tell us what you did and why it didn't work? Start from File/New/Existing Mail Account, enter your details, click Continue, then immediately click Manual config. On the next screen enter these settings:
incoming POP server: pophm.sympatico.ca
port: 995
Connection security: SSL/TLS
Authentication: Normal password
User name: your full email address
outgoing SMTP server: smtphm.sympatico.ca
port: 587 (or try 25)
Connection security: STARTTLS
Authentication: Normal password
User name: your full email address

My apple ID is not working with my apple store
My apple ID is not working with my apple store
I have the exact same problem as "Jan Olsen 1"
I sent them feedback:
"I was given a $25 iTunes gift card.
When trying to log on to my account, my password didn't work (though I entered the correct password THREE TIMES).
I requested help changing the password through an e-mail. Went through the process, changed the password.
I successfully logged on to my account and entered the gift card information and was given a $25 credit.
When I tried to buy mp3s, I was asked to enter my password - AGAIN.
I got one of the following messages each time I tried to enter my NEW password:
'We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (5002).
There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later.'
or
'Verification is required.
You must enter your AppleID and password, click Billing Info, and verify your payment information in order to make purchases.
The Apple ID you entered couldn't be found or your password was incorrect. Please try again.'
Don't know where to go from here."
And then, just to log on to this forum, I had to enter my AppleID TWICE! Once, then again to verify my AppleID!
Ridiculous! Frustrating! -
I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!1
Close all iWork applications
2
Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
3
empty the trash
4
shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
5
Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install -

I have IOS 7 5S and using mail. Receiving works great. Sending mail will not work. Using Centurylink. On my IOS 6 Iphone 4 it works great. Compared settings and they are identical. Now what?
Well, this is a recurring issue for many users...a small percentage of users but still a bug. Report the issue here to Apple: www.apple.com/feedback
iOS7.0.3 will be released next week, which as of now, I know is primarily for an iMessage but hopefully it will clear up some of these email issues some are also having. -
I am starting to affiliate market and need a donotfollow plug in or add on and the one available on your site will not work with version 4 of Firefox. Is there another place I can go or do you have another add on that will perform the same function as the do not follow you have on your site for the previous versions of Firefox? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK - to answer my own question, Apple recommend 8.2.1, but you can install 9.1.1 and it will run on a G3. Very slowly. Looks like this is the only option. Get it here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1036. You need OSX 10.4.11 or later though....

Time Machine will NOT work with Airport Disks!
It looks like Time Machine will not work with Airport Disks after all. All references to Airport have been removed from the Time Machine page:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/timemachine.html
It also specifically says: "You can designate just about any HFS+ formatted FireWire or USB drive connected to a Mac as a Time Machine backup drive. Time Machine can also back up to another Mac running Leopard with Personal File Sharing, Leopard Server, or Xsan storage devices."
Surely, they would have included the Airport Extreme Base Station in this list if it was supported.
I really hope there will be another firmware update for the AEBS which will bring compatibility with Time Machine, because Time Machine was the only reason for me to buy an AEBS. (I only use it as a small backup server, I don't even have wireless networking enabled. There were other solutions, e.g. from Synology, which are faster and more reliable than AEBS disk sharing, but Synology stated their network drives would not be compatible with Time Machine.)Here's how you can potentially use your AirDisk with TimeMachine (beware that YMMV), but it should work as it works with every other "unsupported" device.
1) Mount your AirDisk so it appears on your Mac
2) Open Terminal.app
3) change directories to the AirDisk's root folder located in "/Volumes"
ie: cd "/Volumes/AirDisk Name"
4) execute this command to "bless" the drive to be used with time machine:
touch .com.apple.timemachine.supported
5) Start TimeMachine and if all went well, it should recognize your AirDisk drive and use it for TM.
This should also work on NFS shares, SMB shares, AFP shares, basically anything. It has worked up until the last developer seed, so unless they yanked this at the last minute, it should still work.
Now, the reason why Apple removed this feature may be due to the unreliability of the AirDisk, so be cautious.
