Can not get mail after upgrading to yosemite

I upgraded to yosemite and now get a message when i try to open my mail, that my mail is damaged?

Do a backup.
Quit Mail.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

    Hi tania184,
    Have you contacted your email provider to make sure there are no problems on their end? If they say their email servers are working properly, check the outgoing and incoming mail servers entries on your iPhone to make sure both are entered correctly. Enter the outgoing mail server even if the account setup indicates that is optional.

  • Can not get microphone after privacy on ipad 2 on ios 7, Can not get microphone after privacy on ipad 2 on ios 7

    Can not get microphone after privacy on ipad 2 on upgrade iOS 702 . What can i doe ? Thans

    The above helped me find this solution:
    do the following steps:
    General > Restrictions > [scroll down to ] PRIVACY: > Microphone > Allow changes
    Not: Settings > Privacy > Microphone
    If you are installing an app like Soundhound, you will have to delete it then just reinstall it. The app then will ask you if it is "OK" to use the microphone. Push "yes". Then go back to the Settings app and follow the chain:
    Settings > Privacy > Microphone > SoundHound   push tab to the right until it turns green and you are set.

    I just upgraded to the 5s. I have several mail accounts and I'm getting a message that says: "can not get mail, the connection to the server failed" . Now I'm confused because all the mail shows up perfectly.

    Well it does it every time I go to mail and is driving me nuts. It never happened on my iPhone5, just on this 5s.

    Hey agnesfromcopenhagen k,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with Mail on your iPad. The following resource provides some troubleshooting steps. What kind of account are you using? Some internet providers require that you be connected to your home Wi-Fi (or for work accounts, inside your corporate Wi-Fi/firewall). Also, some email accounts require two-step authentication. For more information, see this resource:

    Can not get mail , it sayes that the user name or password is incorret, it the right one

    You need to contact the email provider and reset your information. All your iPhone does is send the information to the provider and they are stating your username or password are incorrect. If you contact the provider they can help you reset it so it will work with your phone

  • Just upgraded to MacBook Pro running 10.8.4.  Want to convert old movie files to put in Itunes.  Can't upgrade QT player preinstalled, so downloaded QT Player 7 and purchased QTPlayer 7 Pro registration code.  Can not get it to upgrade.  Called Apple 2x.

    Just upgraded to MacBook Pro running 10.8.4.  Want to convert old movie files to put in Itunes.  Can't upgrade QT player preinstalled, so downloaded QT Player 7 and purchased QTPlayer 7 Pro registration code.  Can not get it to upgrade.  Called Apple 2x.  If you have a fix, you can email me direct at [email protected]

    Want to convert old movie files to put in Itunes.
    What does "old movies" mean to you? File type, audio and/or video compression format(s)?
    Can't upgrade QT player preinstalled, so downloaded QT Player 7 and purchased QTPlayer 7 Pro registration code.  Can not get it to upgrade.
    Did you follow the instructions found here?
    If you have a fix, you can email me direct at [email protected]
    To which fix do you refer? Activatng QT 7 Pro or converting the files? Even with QT 7 Pro activated you may need to modify your QT codec component configuration depending on the file type and compression formats used to encode your "old movies." There may be many different problems here with each having one or more "fixes." Please try to be more specific regarding your questions. Converting a muxed VOB MPEG2/AC3 file would be very different different from converting an AVI DivX5/MP3 file depending on which application you are attempting to use.
