Can anyone help me understand "mail" issue?

I can send and receive emails using "Mail" on my macbook pro (4.1, 2.5 Ghz) when using my home internet connection.
When away from home I can only receive emails, not send them.
I have checked this with my email host who says the issue must be with my isp wherever I happen to be when away from home.
However, that cannot be true since I can send emails using that isp on my iphone when away from home.
What is wrong? Is it something to do with my laptop? Has anyone had this experience and solved it?
I would be very grateful for any help.
Johan

Thank you sig,
it seems I can though, because it works from my iphone using a different isp. Ought to be the same on the laptop?

When i update my IOS7 i lost my all pic from my IPAD2 can anyone suggest how to get back those pic? and i don,t think so i did kept back up before i update ios7. can anyone help me for this issue?

The photo's in your camera roll would be in a backup, if you have one (iCloud or iTunes). If you did not keep a backup somewhere, they are gone. Sorry, but that is the way of any data - if you don't have a backup of it somewhere, there is nothing to restore it from.
All other photo's should be on your computer somewhere anyway - whereever you had them to sync to the device originally.

Yes but there's no point doing it here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear this is a User to User forum. It's Users like you talking to other Users. It's not a channel to communicate with Apple.

I would take it to your local Apple Store to get it checked out & replaced if it's defective. Any device that is shocking you should be checked out for safety's sake.

I want to download "Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.45.2 Linux," but when I do as a package and all that jazz I says I already have the latest version installed! Very false! I would LOVE to watch my videos, so can someone PLEASE help me?

Can anyone help me? Is there anything I can do?
Please keep in mind that I'm new to Linux, Absolute Beginner new.

Can anyone help me with an issue with opening PDF files- ?

I have windows vista 34 bit, IE 8. I have had adobe reader on my computer for 7 yrs. Never had a problem with it until now. I have kept it updated, since it is vital to my work. Last week, I tried to open a PDF file for work, and I get a "white/blank page". I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 9, 7 times, tried the "Repair tool". and nothing works. Can anyone help? I have very little computer knowledge.. do not understand computer language, or anything tech-- so please don't reply as a developer or IT tech language. Dummy it down for me.

There are multiple people using this same site, and I am the only one that is having this issue-- everyone else can open/download their documents/ PDF files,, Why can't I?? I am loosing buisness because of this issue. There has to be an answer somewhere?? Does anyone have anything???? HELP!!!
Ok-- Everyone and anyone!!!! I really need help desprately.. I have called the company's web site IT department, it's not thier issue-- it's mine. In addition to uninstalling and reinstalling, making sure that everything is up to date on Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash and Sun Java, and Windows vista 32 (only updated) --- all these have the latest updates. I have done a System Restore to 5 days before the issue started. Nothing has changed. I still get a white/blank page on this one area. There has to be a setting, a block or a glitch somewhere that someone knows about and can help me fix. Please, Please Help!!!!

Can anyone help with my battery issues

This past month my battery has been draining really fast, it could be sitting at 53%, then after a couple of minutes could be at 40%. It used to last all day easily, and I'm not doing anything differently. I have tried discharging and recharging fully a few times, and thought maybe installing ios 7 might help, but it hasn't
My wife also has been having the same problem recently as well.
Can anyone help me?

Can anyone help me with Mail for Mac passwords?

I have been using Mail (on my MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.2) quit happliy for some time. I have several accounts for good reason. Recently two of the accounts started asking me to enter my password (see screen shot below). Having done so too many time, my account became locked and I had to go through Yahoo mail to reset it (with help from BT). In the end I had to change three passwords. While two of them are now being accepted by Mail, the third is not. Can anyone help?

I should also say, that I have now upgraded to 10.8.3 and following the advice elsewhere, the password saved in my keychain access is the correct one.

Please can anyone help with my registration issue?

Hi - I am having great difficulty registering (and therefore continuing to use) CS6. I purchased this a few days ago and installed.. at the time I could not register as it stated I had no internet connection or my clock was wrong - neither is the case (clock is fine and I have internet). So I chose to register later. Now, every time I try to use Photoshop it states I must register within x number of days or it will stop working.. but every time I try to register it again tells me I have no internet connection. SO I get a message stating I should contact customer support (hard as they are closed when I get back from work) or visit www.adobe.com/getactivated_uk, which I do. This tells me that if I am permanently offline (which I'm not but for the purposes of actually managing to register, let's say I am) that I can: ' Follow the installation or product launch screens until you see a link that says "I cannot connect to the internet" or "Having trouble connecting to the internet". Click the link and follow the instructions on the subsequent screen to initiate offline activation. Instructions there will tell you how to generate a Request Code.' What installation or product launch screens? I have already installed. I can nowhere find an option that states 'having trouble connecting to the internet'. How do I therefore generate a request code? Please can anyone help drag me out of this loop of madness? I am not on t-3 days and counting before it stops working:( So confusing, not at all easy to set up as I had hoped. Please help?

Will do my best. No, I appreciate is isn't Adobe support, I had thought that was forums were for - support and advice, sharing of knowledge? I had hoped someone else had experienced something similar in the past. Maybe I'm wrong, this is fairly new to me. Once I am up and running I will be offering helpful support to others. Thanks for your helpful support

Can anyone help me understand how font sizes work in Mail?

Hi
I am used to writing and sending emails in Arial 10 (on my PC using Outlook) - it seems like a professional sort of size to send to people.
So I have set the Mail Preferences Fonts to Arial 10 for the message font
But when I receive emails, the font is so small I can barely read it. I have a new 24" iMac and just cannot get to grips with keeping font sizes at a reasonable level between applications. And I though Mac was supposed to be joined up....
As I write the text of this posting, the font is a good size to read (although still looks blurred - see my other postings) - it is in Arial which I want.... But I cannot get Mail to wrk in the same way.
I do not want to change the font size to the email messages to a bigger font size, as I want my outgoing messages to be received in font size 10.
Please help me understand how this is all supposed to work in MAC? It was all so easy on a PC!

No, it is one of several unfathomable shortcomings in Mail that you are unable to set a minimum text viewing size. I too have 24in iMac and I have to enlarge each incoming message manually using Cmd+ and this is frankly Stone Age stuff, especially when dealing with hundreds of emails every day. Another very poor alternative is to use Ctrl and the scroll wheel to zoom in but your head will soon be spinning as the screen moves around.
FWIW, I am also dismayed that Apple has disabled the Contextual Menu in 3 of the 4 mail address fields. There must be some obscure justification for limiting CM copy and paste to just the Subject field but I just think it's risible.
And why can't I save a message I have just written to a place of my choosing? Instead I must save it to the Drafts folder or send it first and then Save As from the Sent mailbox. Is this someone's idea of fun?
I could go on about Mail's shortcomings but that's enough ranting for now...

CAn anyone help me with MAIL and my earthlink account?

I've had DSL with Earthlink for several years now and never had connection problems. In the past two weeks, however, MAIL will sometimes fail to send email and sometimes fail to retrieve email from my Earthlink webmail account. The strangest thing is that this happens intermittently, even though no settings have been changed. Most of the time I can retrieve email, but other times I get the error message that "port 110 has timed out". Most of the time, I cannot send email, but other times the email shoots right through when I open mail.
I called Earthlink about this and we set up my MAIL program step by step according to Earthlink guidelines. Unfortunately, this did not help the matter.
My MAIL preference settings are as follows:
My incoming mail server is pop.mindspring.com on port 110.
My outgoing mail server is smtpauth.earthlink.net. The outgoing server port is 587. SSL is not checked. Authentication is by password.
All of these settings are correct according to the Earthlink tech.
If this matters, my G5 is connected wirelessly to an Airport Express base station.
Again, I'm puzzled that I've only just begun to have these issues and they seem to happen randomly.I also see that similar discussions have been had on this forum with Earthlink and MAIL, but I don't see any resolutions. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks.

I had problems with my Earthlink DSL quitting about a month ago. I went through some of the same Earthlink tech support troubleshooting hoops, hooking directly into my ethernet port not into the Airport etc. Eventually an Earthlink senior tech said my Netopia modem was defective. After some financial haggling they sent me a new Zycel modem, that didn't work either. Earthlink made an appointment and sent out an AT&T tech to the house. He hooked in and said it was a defective phone company circuit board. The AT&T tech called in for the phone company to change the circuit board now both the Netopia and Zycel modems work.
Note: while checking the line, the AT&T tech it my DSL line was sending one protocol it would work if my modem was set up to receive it. (protocol is my word I don't remember his exact word).
Another Note: Also when Earthlink wanted to replace my modem they wanted my to pay (the dollar amounts are approximate) $80 for an new modem, or get a free modem with an exorbitant $40 shipping fee and commit to an other year of service. I eventually bargained down to a free modem, free shipping and $20 off the monthly fee.
