Are there adv/disadv to Yahoo Mail Plus v. using basic mail progr w iMac

I am brand new Mac user, switching from Dell laptop to iMac. Have had mail sent through Yahoo Mail Plus to Outlook for years. Unsure whether this is good idea now that I'm switching to iMac. Yahoo subscription due immediately so need to make decision. Thanks!

Hey Adorone,
This is the iPhone Mail, Contacts and Calendar forum. The Forum for 10.5 Mail and Address Book is located here: http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1223
If you want to keep using the email client on your computer and not using the web based mail, you'll need the Yahoo! Mail Plus service. With that service you get POP access.
You can enter the POP information in the Mail.app in Mac OS X, like you entered in Outlook.

    Are there any known issues running MAC OS X 10.8.5 on my IMAC and MAC OS X 10.6.8 on my MAC Server?

    To answer the obvious question. No. None that I've seen. But it may depend on what you mean exactly?
    Connecting to file sharing service - None that I've seen
    Connecting to Open Directory (assuming proper configuration) - None that I've seen
    Using the Server's Mail Service (assuming proper configuration) - None that I've seen
    I can say the same about anything else the Server may or may not be offering.

  • Are there any other flash players that you can use on Safari other than Adobe

    Are there any other flash players that you can use on Safari other than Adobe?

    Not as far as I am aware.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS The latest version, 10.2.152.25 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Note that the latest Flash Player update only works on YouTube with Safari in 32 bit mode - until YouTube correct this.

  • Are there any apps which will allow local calling using data only that do not require any special numbers called out initially and does not require the receiver to have a similar app or account?

    Are there any apps which will allow local calling using data only (not minutes, no extra charge) that do not require any special numbers called out initially and does not require the receiver to have a similar app or account?  Just for random local calling.

    Yup.
    Here is a way you could solve this by adding an extra column and a small lookup table:
    The lookup table is here for the copying:
    0
    1
    k
    kilo
    2
    M
    mega
    3
    G
    giga
    4
    T
    tera
    5
    P
    peta
    6
    E
    exa
    7
    Z
    zetta
    8
    Y
    yotta
    In table 8 (the one on the left in the image) column A is where the values are. 
    B1=A1÷(1024^VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 1))&" "&VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 2)&"B"
    this is shorthand for... select cell B1, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
    =A1÷(1024^VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 1))&" "&VLOOKUP(INT(LOG(A1, 1024)), Binary Prefixes::A:D, 2)&"B"
    select cell B1, copy,
    now select all the cells in column B, paste

  • Can't receive yahoo mail on iPhone6 using Apple mail client.

  • Is there a way to sync the spell dictionary used by Mail.app?

    I can share the Mail.app rules and signatures via .Mac/iSync, but when I modify the dictionary that is used to spell-check the mail text, I have to do these modifications on all computers individually. It should be fairly simple to allow syncing of the dictionary that is used by Mail.app among the Macs via .Mac.
    The system does not offer this feature, but is there a tool out there which does this job?

    I think that cloud privacy concerns are overdone - especially with Apple who don't have a vested interest in snooping through your data like Google does!
    Do you use email?  It's stored in the cloud on the providers servers - no matter who the provider is.
    Do you use SMS on a phone?  They're stored on a server somewhere!
    Do you use the internet?  The logs are stored at your ISP for some period of time - tracking everywhere you've been.
    Thats why I am comfortable to use iCloud for most of my documents.  If I want to transfer files very securely, I put them in an encrypted disk image on Dropbox.

  • Unable to add a yahoo mail plus account to mac mail

  • Are there downsides to having gmail or aol email accounts in MAIL?

    Hi,
    My friend has an aol, gmail and .mac email accounts-he's not happy w/ MAIL.
    He is annoyed that if he's away from his main computer and sends emails via the internet (like in gmail) - that there is no way to have his SENT emails download onto his computer. Is there anyway to get that to work?
    I keep telling him to lose the aol account - don't they just stink with MAIL?
    Thanks in advance...

    I'm not sure for AOL, but Gmail offers IMAP support as well as POP 3. The default setting is POP 3 and that might be the reason that your friend can't see the e-mails sent from the browser on his Mac. But if he uses Gmail IMAP then he should see everything. .Mac works the same way as your friend should know since he also have a .Mac account.
    Note: Leopard Mail uses POP 3 by default, if you choose to use IMAP then uncheck the create account automatically option.

  • What Strategies are there for updating a table when you're using a multi-table view to display it.

    I'm using a view and am able to create a grid that allows editing of one of the columns. Let's call the table where the column is updated "DepartmentFeeDetail." The view has several joins but up till now the column was editable.
    Today I needed to join DepartmentFeeDetail with itself to pick up the debit side of a debit/credit pair. I want to show the gl account number for both
    the debit and credit on the same row. I also need to update the value for both debit and credit.
    I can no longer edit the column to no surprise. When updating using MSSQLMS I get the following error:
    View or function 'MyTestView' is not updatable because the modification affects multiple base tables.
    What should my strategy be in lightswitch? The grid is populated by a query that includes my lynq expressions in DepartmentFeeRateQuery_PreprocessQuery. The query may return 1000+ rows. I need to allow the accountant to edit either a single row's column
    or enter a value in a field outside the grid and click a button "Apply fee rate to entire page."
    All this was working fine until the requirement to show the debit side gl account number and to change the debit side value somehow.
    I've tried adding a property to DepartmentFeeDetail but the "Is Computed" property wouldn't allow me to uncheck it. Is there a way to add an editable property for each grid row and initialize it to the
    current value of the column returned by the view? I could then update a collection when one of the fields changes. If they change the global value and press "Apply fee rate to entire page"
    I can update the collection as well.

    What I do is instead of using a View I use a updatable
    WCF RIA Service.
    This is an example of an updateable method:
    public void UpdateQuestionDetailForUser(QuestionDetailForUser objQuestionDetailForUser)
    // Get the current user
    string strCurrentUserName = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
    // We are under Forms Authentication so if user is blank then we
    // are debugging and we are TestUser
    if (strCurrentUserName == "")
    strCurrentUserName = "TestUser";
    // Check for an existing Answer for this Question for this User
    var objSurveyAnswer = (from SurveyAnswers in this.Context.SurveyAnswers
    where SurveyAnswers.SurveyQuestion.Id == objQuestionDetailForUser.QuestionId
    where SurveyAnswers.UserName == strCurrentUserName
    select SurveyAnswers).FirstOrDefault();
    if (objSurveyAnswer != null)
    try // This is an update ****
    // Set values
    objSurveyAnswer.Choice = Convert.ToInt32(objQuestionDetailForUser.SelectedChoice);
    objSurveyAnswer.Comment = objQuestionDetailForUser.Comments;
    // Update LightSwitch Database
    this.Context.SaveChanges(
    System.Data.Objects.SaveOptions.DetectChangesBeforeSave);
    catch (Exception ex)
    throw new Exception("Error inserting QuestionId " + objQuestionDetailForUser.QuestionId, ex);
    else // This is an Insert ****
    // Query the GetAllQuestionsForUser method because it calculates if a Question
    // is Active or not for the QuestionId being inserted
    // If it is not in the collection, do not allow the insert
    var objUserQuestion = (from QuestionForUser in this.GetAllQuestionsForUser()
    where QuestionForUser.UserName == strCurrentUserName
    where QuestionForUser.QuestionId == objQuestionDetailForUser.QuestionId
    select QuestionForUser).FirstOrDefault();
    if (objUserQuestion != null)
    try
    // Get the Survey Question
    var objSurveyQuestion = (from SurveyQuestions in this.Context.SurveyQuestions
    where SurveyQuestions.Id == objQuestionDetailForUser.QuestionId
    select SurveyQuestions).FirstOrDefault();
    // Create a SurveyAnswer object
    SurveyAnswer objNewSurveyAnswer = this.Context.CreateObject<SurveyAnswer>();
    // Set values
    objNewSurveyAnswer.UserName = strCurrentUserName;
    objNewSurveyAnswer.Choice = Convert.ToInt32(objQuestionDetailForUser.SelectedChoice);
    objNewSurveyAnswer.Comment = objQuestionDetailForUser.Comments;
    objNewSurveyAnswer.SurveyQuestion = objSurveyQuestion;
    // Update LightSwitch Database
    this.Context.SurveyAnswers.AddObject(objNewSurveyAnswer);
    this.Context.SaveChanges(
    System.Data.Objects.SaveOptions.DetectChangesBeforeSave);
    catch (Exception ex)
    throw new Exception("Error inserting QuestionId " + objQuestionDetailForUser.QuestionId, ex);
    else
    throw new Exception("Error inserting Answer. Answer is not marked Active.");

  • Are there any custom built news applications I can use?

    I am trying a build a news application for my organization.  My organization have several sub units that will each contribute their own news.  There will be a single news home page that consumes all these different news based on the day the news article is posted.  Is there any custom apps out there with this framework that I can work from?
    Cheers,
    Alex

    Go to File > New > Blank page > Html > choose a layout from the 3rd column and hit Create button.  Although fairly generic, these are fundamentally sound as starter pages for most projects.

  • Are there any common LookAndFeel's that can be used/bought?

    I have searched the internet for some. But for the most part, they were side projects of people,. and haven't been updated as new versions of java are released.
    anyone have any suggestions to some professional cross-platform look & feels?
    thanks!

    Hello gmoniey
    I think you can try this code
         JFrame frame;
         JTextField txtTest;
         JPanel panel;
         JComboBox cmbTest;
         String items[]={"First","Second"};
         try {
    // UIManager.setLookAndFeel("javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel");
    // UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");
    // UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.motif.MotifLookAndFeel" );
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel");// Introduced in release 1.4.2.
              frame=new JFrame("Look and Feel");
                   txtTest=new JTextField(10);
                   cmbTest=new JComboBox(items);
                   panel=new JPanel();
                   panel.add(txtTest);
                   panel.add(cmbTest);
                   frame.setSize(500,600);
                   frame.getContentPane().add(panel);
                   frame.setVisible(true);
              } catch (Exception e)
              System.err.println("Could not switch look and feel " );
    The last one is Introduced in release 1.4.2.
    At command line you can say
    java -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel MyApp
