BTYahoo email nothing showing in "From" column

I am suddenly not geting anything shown in the "From" column. Was OK when used yesterday. Have tried signing out and back in. Also tried a re-boot and sign in. Still nothing. Can find nothing in the settings to help.
Any suggestions please?

Hi, everyone!
I have been experiencing similar problems over the past 24 hours.
Misguidedly I elected to cross over to the All-New email sytem about 10 days ago. (I will post separately in the appropriate forum with my criticisms of this wonderful 'streamlined' system!) I have not found AN mail at all sympathetic to use. Yesterday evening I suddenly discovered that my In box was empty. After collecting approx. 10 emails in the past 12 hours or so it has emptied itself yet again! All the messages are still in my system somewhere, as I can locate them via Mail Search, but cannot access them in date order, nor refer to flagged messages that need a reasonably prompt response, which means that a number of recipients probably won't get replies until the problem is cleared up.
Could the mods or 'powers that be' come back to us with a reasonably prompt explanation for this behaviour of the email system? Might I have inadvertently selected a 'wrong' option?

I downloaded Lion on my iMac. It apparently cleaned out the hard drive. Nothing shows up from before. It looks like a brand new computer. It is backed up on Time machine. Any idea of why this happened and suggestions on restoring? Thanks.

I downloaded Lion on my 4 yr old iMac. The download stalled at the last minute so I clicked "CANCEL". When it was restarted, Lion was there, with no apparent option but to go ahead and install so I assumed it was okay. Didn't transfer data from "another computer" when prompted - assumed it would transfer from that computer. It apparently cleaned out the hard drive. It looks like a brand new computer. None of my apps, programs, files, or thousands of photos.   It is backed up on Time machine, but it's a sickening sight. Any idea why this happened and suggestions before restoring? Thanks.

I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation:   What are Local Snapshots?   http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

When your resetting your security questions but when you send it to your email nothing shows up?

Hello kaylaRosann,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you still haven't received the email from Apple, you can sign in to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) to resend your rescue email address.
To resend your verification email, click on Password & Security. Then, click the Resend link located in the Rescue Email Address section.

My sent file in email shows the emails I have sent from my black berry but nothing sent from my IPAD2. Any suggestions on how to change this?

My sent folder in email only shows my sent items from my black berry, nothing from my IPAD 2. How do I change this to be a folder that represent sent activity from the IPAD?

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

Why does nothing show up when I want to print messages from my Safari email

Hi all, I find it annoying that, when I wish to print emails from Safari mail, the print dialogue window comes up totally blank, and find myself having to forward the message to another of my email addresses to print from there.
I'm just wondering what I may have done that blocks email messages from showing up in the print dialogue box. Any clues?

When you are on the Print screen, is there a button "Properties" near/after the printer name? If so, click on it.

When I send emails, my friends told me my name doesn't appear in the "from" column. How do I solve this problem?

Badunit, thanks for your reply. I just went into Mail/Preferences/Accounts, "full name" field is filled correctly with my name. This happens to only certain recipients, and not every emails. Sometimes my name shows and sometime it doesn't show. And this only started to occur recently.

Time of email shows in Date Column, Date is not showing on new emails

Date is not showing in Date column. Only time is showing.
I just migrated from OE - Old emails show the time & Date.

If these are emails received today that is normal. Thunderbird assumes you know what day it is and only displays the time for messages received today. It will append the date to these messages at midnight tonight.

Email "sender" showing incorrect name from one account only, from blackberry only

I have three email accounts linked to my phone, recently if I send from one account, the message seems to come from a mystery sender - i.e message shows as being sent from "Sam Laidlaw" but the email address is correct. I've tried editing the account, deleting the account, modifying the account, nothing works. I've searched and "Sam Laidlaw" doesn't show up in any addresses, contacts, accounts etc - I don't know where it came from or how to delete it. Very frustrating as it is my work email that I use contantly and people are now asking "who is Sam Laidlaw"?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I only ask because the recipient's device can control who an email appears to be from.
Aside from that, this is controlled by either the settings when you setup the account or the display name listed on the account itself.
What kind of account is it? GMail? Outlook.com? Yahoo!?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

My old pc was running on windows 7 and my new one is an apple running on Lion.
My phone is an Iphone IV and I can see all the bookmarks there.

But the bookmarks are not there, I tried merging data and replacing data on this computer options but is the same.
Any suggestions?

Can't locate email content? All of a sudden my email content has disappeared from inside MacMail? The actual emails are coming through but I am unable to view them as the area is just left blank! Nothing has been done to have changed this?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup 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, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Since upgrade to Yosemite, whenever I send an Email, the receiver sees it as coming from my wife only in the "From" column regardless of which signature I use. How do I change this?

I recently upgraded to Yosemite.
When I send an Email, the receiver sees that it comes from my wife in their "from" column
We have separatee signatures that I can chose from and our Email account is identified with both of our names.
How do I change this so that when I send something, the receiver knows it is from me and not from my wife.

It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
          Mail ▹ Preferences...
The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
          Send new messages from:
choose
          Account of selected mailbox
Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
          Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
If there's only one server in the menu, select
          Edit SMTP Server List...
and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
          Card ▹ Make This My Card
from the menu bar.
