Booking confirmations that get lost by the email s...

With the holiday season upon us, I imagine many of BT's customers will be making holiday/travel bookings, wanting to print boarding cards, buy rail tickets/plane tickets/make hotel reservations on line. All of these vital documents tend to be sent to you by email, which can be an expensive disaster if the email system doesn't deliver them and you find yourself without vital information at a railway station or checkin desk. At the moment, a substantial number of BT customers are experiencing issues with accessing their email, and losing email material that has disappeared deep into the bowels of either yahoo or bt or criticalpath/openwave never to be seen again. This is beyond your control, and we have no idea when BT's email service will settle down to its more usual patterns of operation. Advice!! - whenever you get to a booking confirmation web page online, immediately save it/print it/archive it as a saved web page or print it to a pdf file and check the file to make sure it is readable and that you have ALL the required information. Do that BEFORE clicking any "NEXT" button on the booking site. Then print out your paper copy and save the file to any device you are taking on holiday as well. Don't simply rely on the "we will send you an email bookiing confirmation" - because you could be disappointed - or seriously out of pocket. Unfortunately, even if the failure of the email to arrive safely costs you a lot of money you are unlikely to be able to sue for compensation. best to use the belt and braces method and assume that the email WONTarrive. Just in case.

That's good advice but not simply because of the current shananigans with BT Mail. I routinely check that I have received email info* before logging off a confirmation page, copying the page if the email doesn't arrive pdq. It's little effort compared with the potential bother.
*Safely downloaded by Thunderbird of course. Anyone who doubted the security value of using an email client must surely be rethinking it by now.

    When I try to email photos from iPhoto I get this message: The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination. It won't let me change it, what do I do?

    Can you send email ok via the Apple Mail application?
    The username and password are set in the Accounts section of the Mail application. Start Mail, select preferences and select Accounts. Then make absolutely sure that the username, password and outgoing mail server are entered correctly.

  • I cannot get yahoomail through the email icon on my iPad. I can get it on my iPhone and if I go through safari and then yahoo on my iPad. Gmail works fine

    I cannot get yahoomail through the email icon on my iPad since this morning. Gmail works and yahoomail works on iphone and if I go through safari and yahoo, works ok on iPad. I changed password, deleted account and restarted account, turned iPad on and off and still no mail

    My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
    https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
    On the iPhone, tap Settings.
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.
    Enter the following incoming mail server information:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail.
    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

  • [svn] 3061: update the framework build. xml that gets included in the package

    Revision: 3061

    update the framework build.xml that gets included in the package
    -use target-player = 10 for most frameworks
    -updated utilities target to use FlexContentHolder.swc and framework.swc
    Modified Paths:
    flex/sdk/trunk/frameworks/build_framework.xml

    The problem with re-using an existing WSUS is that ConfigMgr doesn't do anything with the existing approved and declenid updates. ConfigMgr will only use the metadata of the updates in WSUS. This could cause problems as the ConfigMgr client simply tells
    the WUA agent to scan against WSUS for compliance and then uses the update groups to tell the client which updates should be installed. In case the WUA agent finds updates directly on WSUS that are approved then it will also start to install those updates...
    That's why you should use one of them, as they will interfere with eachother..

    How do I set up my iPad so that I can recieve the emails from my Outlook Express account

    Your iPad doesn't receive email from Outlook Express (or any other email client).  It receives email from your email provider.  To set up your email account on your iPad go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap Add Account and add your email provider's account settings with your username and password.  iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL and Hotmail email settings are automatically entered by tapping the appropriate button.  Others must be manually entered by tapping Other.  (Exchange accounts will also require you to enter your email provider's settings.)

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Recovering Disk Space
    If you have less than 10 GB you definitely need to delete or offload some files or purchase a lager disk or SSD (see below).  You may want to maintain at least 20 GB of free space so when your disk starts filling again it will have some room before it hits that 10 GB mark again.  More headroom is better.  If you let the space fall much below 9 GB you might not be able to boot your machine.
    Initial easy steps to gain disk space:
    - Delete all files in the Downloads folder.
      Empty the Trash.
    - Start iPhoto.
      Empty its trash.
      Restart.
    - Restart in Safe Mode:
      Restart the computer.
      As soon as you hear the chime press and hold the right shift key.
      Be patient. Hold it down until you see the Apple icon.
      Empty the trash.
      Restart in normal mode.
    - Delete "Recovered Messages", if any.
        Hold the option key down and click "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
        Select "Library" from the drop down menu.
        Library > Mail > V2 > Mailboxes
        Delete "Recovered Messages", if any.
    - Empty the Trash.
    - Restart.
    - Re-index your system disk (Macintosh HD):

    Additional reference on freeing disk space:
    http://pondini.org/OSX/DiskSpace.html
    How much disk space is available now?
    Normally you should backup before proceeding to delete other files but at this point it may not be possible.  Having taken the steps above will the backup compete now?  If not, stop, post back, for emergency data protection procedures and/or how to free more disk space.

    If I go to a site where readers have posted stories I want to print out those stories so I can read them in a comfortable chair and not have to stare at a computer screen. When using Internet Explorer when I click on the story and then hit ctr+p it will print out the story no matter how many pages it is.
    When I try that on Firefox all that gets printed is the home page of the site.

    Mac Mail has a gray gear that constantly spins behind the email address , does this mean it has trouble connecting?

    I deleted the recovery mailbox and the account im having problems with.
