Autofill refuses to enter one name in MAIL app. Only one name.

I write emails to my business manager about 20 times a day. Since the latest OS X upgrade, MAIL autofill won't recognize the name when I type it into the "to" field. After I type the entire lengthy email address, it displays the short nickname (but that defeats the whole purpose!) No problem with ANY other names.
I have tried deleting the name from the Previous Recipients list (it freezes). I have deleted the email address from my Address Book app, then re-entered it manually with a different name. It works once, then displays the same problems.
Yes, I have repaired permissions. I bought a new laptop a month ago. When I transferred data from old to new... the problem followed!
Please, oh please, someone help me.
Thanks!

I am fighting with the same problem. In conversation mode my reply shows me as "From" on the left pane. I switched to Classic view which makes life a bit easier as I can see the "Subject" line and guess that this is an email I'm searching for. Can't find the way to put name of the Sender who started conversation in the info summary on the left.

I have two apple ID's, one with all my apps and one with only Mavericks. Will Mavericks update automatically if i'm not logged in to the apple ID I used to download it?

Some things are mixed up here, seemingly...
I seem to have two Apple ID's attached to my e-mail.
An Apple ID is a valid email address, apparently. How can those be "attached to your email"... what email?
Facetime will not verify my e-mail address because it is associated with the other account.
This doesn't make sense. You can register multiple, even non-Apple-ID, email addresses and their aliases with FaceTime.
So, maybe you can explain your problem better - what you want and the steps you've taken and what you have so far. If something doesn't work, please tell the exact error message, too.

Apple Mail downloads only one mail at a time...

Hi Everybody,
My PowerBook runs on Tiger 10.4.11. And I have Apple Mail version 2.1.3, which I have configured to my gmail account.
Just a few days back I noticed something very peculiar about the download habit of Apple Mail which now downloads only one mail (this has started a few weeks back). Irrespective of how many mails there are on my gmail, when I press 'get mail' button, it connects to my gmail account and shows & downloads only one mail(the first in the row). Now, when I figured out the problem I have to press the 'get mail' button again and again till there are no more mails to download. It actually downloads all mails based on the receipt time, but only one at a time.
Does anyone here have any idea what this could be. I really look forward to sorting this out.
Thanks in advance

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.
May even need to do an Archive and Install if you have room on the HD...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

Question about Mail app and domain name please help

Hi,
I wasn't sure where to post this question so figured this would be the best area. I have a website which uses bluehost as it's web hoster. My email is set up through them, such as [email protected]
In my Mail app, I have the POP thing set up so when ever someone emails me it goes right to the Mail app. It works great for my personal computer, but when I go to work and go on other computers is where the problem is.
When I am on a random computer at work, I have to sign onto my webhosting site and then use squirrel mail. It is quite a hastle and is not the best. I would love to use gmail, but still keep my domain name I have.
One co-worker mentioned just forwarding all my [email protected] emails to my new gmail email. There are issue's with doing this because if I'm at work and email someone with gmail it will use that email address. Also, I want to be able to read all my sent messages from any computer including the sent messages that were within my Mail app. Is this possible?
Besides forwarding is there a better solution? It is sort of hard to explain. Basically I want my [email protected] address to be run through gmail, be able to access on any computer, have it be the only address in my mail app, and most importantly have the sent messages from mail app to be able to be read on all computers.
I think gmail lets you make a domain name email, without gmail being included at the end. But I already have the email address made...am I able to just swap it? And keep all my mail inbox info?
What's the best sollution for my problem?
Thanks

You would need to login to your web mail account to reply so that the email came from "[email protected]"
I try to get a gmail address that is close to the domain name like - [email protected] - so that I don't have to bother opening web mail as it is a pain.
I forward to Gmail and then Mac Mail because their spam blocker is the best.
A lot of web mail addresses bounce mail because the capacity is limited and the owners don't go into their control panel to launch their web mail and clear out the old stuff. Lawyers, in particular, are famous for this. For this reason I don't set web mail to keep a copy of the forwarded mail. If my web mail gets full of spam and they start bouncing then its not my problem!

Some idiot made an illegal folder name in mail.app on our server...

Hi.
Some one in our office accidently created some mail folders on our OSX 10.9 server that contains illegal characters.
And now we can't remove/change/rename/move or do anything with them.
The log says thing like
2014-01-10 18:17:13,045 Mail[1049]: Failed to decode the IMAP mailbox name VV13 342 S Boden Vittja&Awg-rv resturang
6 530 x 2 050 bredd * h&APY-jd mm (BxH)
VV13 342 S Boden S Vittja&Awg-rv resturang
Mail.app says:
IMAP-kommandot ”DELETE” failes with server error: Error in IMAP command DELETE: Missing '"'.
Example of one of the folder names:
VV13 342 S Boden Vittja&Awg-rv resturang
6 530 x 2 050 bredd * h&APY-jd mm (BxH)
VV13 342 S Boden S Vittja&Awg-rv resturang
I have no ide how they managed to create it since it should be impossibe. But they did 3 folder with this type of names.. How the heck do I remove them? I would need to find the folder in terminal and then remove it manually. But I cant figure out how to identify the folder in OSX server 10.9.
any ideas?
thanks

Get your mailstore path with
sudo serveradmin settings mail:imap:partition-default
You can go ahead and remove or rename the bad folders.. it won't bother dovecot at all.
Note:
All imap start with a dot "." , so they are invisible normally.
Subfodlers are separeted with a dot, so you might have
.2014
.2014.Dec
.2014.Nov
In this case, 2014 is a folder, then Dec and Nov are subfolders.
If you rename the folder, make sure it starts with a dot.

Display company name in mail.app?

Is this possible to display the name of company (and not the address e-mail or the name and first name) in reception of e-mail in mail.app?
I use Address Book...

Ah - ok
In Address Book, click on a contact and click "Edit". In that window, you will see First & Last Name at the top, company, and a checkbox that says company, if you tick that, it will allow you to enter a company name for that contact. (see below)
Before:
After (ticking the checkbox)
Is that what you wanted?

How can I get my email messages to open in one click with Mail app?

Hello,
How do I get my email messages to open with just one tap? On my newer Macbook I just click once on the Mail app and my messages open automatically but on the Powerbook it takes two clicks. Can this be fixed to just one click? I've gone into preferences but can't seem to change it.

Carolyn,
Thanks, I was wanting to just click once on a message and have it open right away and then be able to quickly go through my messages. I found the solution from another helpful Mac user. You just move the separator bar that divides your messages from the view pane and move it up and it works like a charm.

2 Mail apps. One for my wife and one for myself

Im trying to create two seperate mail account apps under one "family" username on my powerbook. One for my wife and one for myself. I don't want to have to create a seperate user for her to login to.
My goal is to keep our multiple email accounts (gmail, yahoo mail etc...) that I have going to our one Mail app segragated. I want one mail app for her and one for me. Is this possible? If so... How do I do it.

Simple answer, no, or at least not without a greater inconvenience than creating a separate user account.
Mail stores all the messages and folders under HD/Users/~/Library/Mail and account settings in HD/Users/~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist.
In order to do what you want, you'd need to create copies for that folder and file for both of you in some other location. Then whenever you wanted to switch, say from your wife's accounts to your own, you'd need to copy your personal copy from its other location into the default location, making sure to make a copy of your wife's before doing so.
It's possible, but a WHOLE LOT easier to use Fast User Switching and allow your wife to just jump into her own account to check her mail.

Name sender mail app

Hello Everybody.
I have an issue with mi mail app (version 5.3) on my 10.7.5 MB pro.

When i send an email, the email sender is the original email address, bot not the name email changed.
In other iMac, with Mail app (version 4.6 and 10.6.8 Mac OS X), it's doesn't happend.
How can i fix it?
Thanks for all.

Icloud email in mail.app only shows mail to alias

My .me account is [email protected]
In Mail.app on Yosemite, I only get mail under the iCloud account if it's addressed to an alias = [email protected] (notice the DOT between first and last name) Mail addressed to the real address shows up fine on my iDevices, but not at all on my Mac.
This feels like I must have done something to ask for this at some point. But I can't find a setting.
Any clues appreciated.

You may have run into the Snow Leopard Mail 'Wizard' which has never heard of iCloud and will persist in tryihng to set up a MobileMe account. I would advise removing the account from Mail and then setting it up using the method detailed here:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

IOS 8 mail app only archives even when set to delete for gmail

iOS 8 and Gmail is behaving oddly with regard to delete and is still only archiving them. Option IS set to the delete option in the account setup and not archive. I have read the Apple guideance documents on deleting and archiving in Gmail accounts.
In iOS mail app in gmail account , long swipe left (delete), short swipe left then choose trash and short swipe and choose move to trash all have the same effect on message. The message disppears from inbox and if you look in the trash folder for the gmail account you momentarily see message as it syncs with server then the message disappears from trash folder. (looking directly at server shows message not present).
However looking at the "All mail" gmail folder shows message STILL present there.
Compare with the iOS Gmail app. Delete a message from inbox and it appears in trash folder and stays there. At this time it is also still present in the All Mail folder. Choose then to delete forever option and disappears from both Trash AND the All Mail folder.
iOS Mail app with Gmail accounts appears with the TRASH option only to move emails to trash locally but then as soon as sync with server it disappears from the Trash folder with no further action but remains in the All Folder. This is in effect an Archive. It should
work as as the Gmail iOS app - messages deleted or trashed are moved to Trash (from where they can be restored ) and remain there till deleted permantly manually or the Trash can is automatically purged after set time on server.

Seems to work properly for me. Are we looking at the same place? to instruct it to Delete instead of Archive:
In Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > (select account) > Account (select your e-mail address) > Advanced.
Mailbox Behavior for Deleted Mailbox: Trash.
then
Move Discarded Messages Into: Deleted Mailbox.
It wasn't this way by default. Move Discarded was Archive, and it gave the results you described. Changing that to Deleted works for me.
I set the Swipe left-to-right to Archive. So now one swipe will Archive, the other will Delete.
oooh... p.s.... this seems to work as well:

Replace one channel by another on only one layer, leaving the others intact?

Hello. In a CMYK image, I need to turn on only one layer one channel completely into another, while the others remain intact. The M channel (the M on that layer) contains information, but I can't print M in this place. I want to change it into an equal amount of K (or into C, in the present case, or even into a mixture of the two). I know how to do this to an entire image (change into greyscale, duotone or whatever may apply). But since I need this to apply to only one (or a selection of) layer(s), leaving all others intact, this is not an option here. I'm sure there's a way to achive this, but I can't find it. Any advice would be much appreciated.

bustamant wrote:
hello, thanks for your replies. As far as I understand, Channel Mixer (i.e., an Adjustment Layer containing a Channel Mixer applied to the layer in question) allows me to reduce one channel to zero,
You are completely correct up to here...
Then choose K as the desired output channel at the top of the palette and slide the M (source) slider to the desired value. You can choose more output channels by going to each output channel in turn.
The way it works is slightly confusing at first, but in a nutshell, you choose your output channel first, then mixture of sources. Then move to another output channel and the sources will be at the default position for THAT output channel only. Each channel has a set of source channels assigned to it.
Default; black output channel = 100% black source, 0% CMY
So your example is black output = 100% black source plus 100% mag source (although I expect you are going to change black source to 0)
AND magenta output = 0% Magenta 0% CYK source (no mag output at all)

I get two tabs with my identical home page every time I open Firefox. How do I "unpin" one of them so that only one tab is populated when I open Firefox?

When I installed Firefox I inadvertently responded "yes" when asked if I wanted to "pin" my home page to the browser. l also designated that page (my Juno page) as my home page. So now whenever I open Firefox, two tabs appear with my identical home page. How do I fix it so that only one tab appears when I open Firefox?

Its not my home page, Like I said, I hae my home page also come up in a different tab (google) I also get the welcome to FF4 on a seperate tab. My home page is set to google. But I dont want the welcome screen to pop up
