Can't get mail, can't get mail

Can't access mail, won't let me input the Incoming Mail server. Help please

Is it automatically configuring the wrong server settings?
If so, on the first page of entering email address, hold down the option key and click continue. That will allow you to set it up manually.
Without more details on what you've tried, I can only guess at what the problem may be.

  • How can I reinstall my mail accounts and get all my mails back?

    My internal HD died a few days ago . Fortunately I did a Time Machine backup a couple of hours before it happened .
    Now my MacBook Pro is back from the repair center, with a brand new HD and Mac OS 10.6.8 installed (the system I had) .
    But how can I get all my mails back? Indeed I used Mail to manage many mail accounts, and some of the inboxes or local mailboxes contain messages that are a few months if not years old. I coud reconfigure my accounts, but then I only get the mails of the last few weeks downloaded (those that were not erased from the pop3-server). Is there a possibility to get all the mails (including outbox) as it was before the crash?
    By the way, I'm also still looking for my address book and my iCal calendars !!
    Thanks for help.

    I have a MacBook Air, bought in 2010 or 2011.  It is running OS 10.6.8.
    I have an iMac that is the same age as my MacBook Air.  My iPhone is 2nd or 3rd generation.
    None can support "the Cloud".  I use gmail and my iPhone and both computers are all synced.
    I can't get email on my new iPad that does use "The Cloud".
    Please help.

  • When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can use my ID, which is in Mail, Contacts etc. The ID I get, I can't find, so that I can delete it. What to do?

    When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can replace it with my ID in Mail, contacts etc. The ID I get without wanting it, I can't find anywhere. I have to delete it. How do I solve this problem, anyone?

    My content was obtained through another ID, which popped up earlier. Now this one doesn't pop up, and my current ID doesn't pop up either, but another one. How do you find an ID which is not in the store, and not in Mail, contacts etc. either?
    Or is it possible to write the ID yourself when you want to buy something, not only to have it popped up being unable to be changed?

  • How can I get my e-mails when I get a message that the folder inbox is full?

    I can't get my e-mail and the e-mails in my inbox have disappeared from Thunderbird, (but not from my server's web mail), so I can't divide it into several folders on Thunderbird to alleviate the problem. I don't know what happened to my old e-mails and I can't get new ones. I did go to my server's web site and deleted a huge number of e-mails there, but that didn't solve the problem. In fact, I wonder if this procedure caused my inbox to somehow disappear in Thunderbird.
    I get a message that says "The folder inbox is full and can't any more messages. To make room for more messages delete any old or unwanted mail and compact the folder."
    I have a new Mac with Maverick. However, in case this matters, all of my old files were migrated to the new Mac, including e-mails. Most of the old e-mails are in a separate folder, however. How can I restore my inbox and also get new e-mails?
    Thank you very much.
    I just thought of something else. I just changed my password with the server. Could this be the problem? I am able to *send* e-mail with Thunderbird, however.

    Technically the limit of 4Gb per folder should have been removed in a recent patch. Personally I an unconvinced as the developers have said so twice before and something else arose to bite people at 4Gb. So the limit probably does not exist anymore and moving mail and compacting will fix it without data loss if it occurs as recent issues have been about displaying mail after the 4Gb point, not storing it.
    Use the Ctrl and Shift keys in conjunction with your mouse to make multiple selections.
    click followed by Shift+ Click selects everything between the two clicks, including the items clicked.
    Holding the Ctrl key while clicking allows you to select or deselect mail to either fine turn the list from shift clicking or to make one of your own.
    Ctrl +A selects everything in the list from the current selection to the end.
    One option is create an important folder and move your important stuff to it then ctrl +A the whole remaining inbox.

  • 9 times out of 10 I have to force-quit to get out of my g-mail. This only happens only on my i-Mac, never on my Macbook pro. Can anybody help ?

    MAX OS X - version 10.7.5 :
    For some weeks now, I have to force-quit 9 times out of 10 to get out of my e-mail account (g-mail). This only happens on my i-Mac, never with my other devices (Macbook Pro, i.Phone, i-Pad).
    Does anybody know what could be the reason for this ?
    Thanks

    OK, you have iMovie 08, which is also known is iMovie Version 7.1.4. It has been a few years since i used this version, so this is based on memory.
    The only components you must have in the Library/QuickTime folder are the AppleIntermediateCodec.component and the AppleMPEG2Codec.component.
    All the others could potentially be causing problems. I would drag the DivX components, the Flip4Mac components, and the Google Camera components to the Desktop temporarily, so nothing is left in this folder except the two Apple components.
    Then restart your Mac and start iMovie. If it works, yay!
    If you still need these other components for some other app, you can probably get updated DivX components for free at Perian.org.
    You can get updated Flip4Mac components by running WMV Player and updating. It should prompt you to update automatically.
    I am not sure about the Google components, but if you are running something that needs them, it should prompt you to install the current versions.
    If none of that works, post back.

  • Trying to upload some photos to an e-mail an I get a message that says "The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it."  To where do I navigate to unlock this so I can have access to my photo library?

    Trying to upload some photos to an e-mail an I get a message that says "The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it."  To where do I navigate to unlock this so I can have access to my photo library?

    Couple of things to try:
    Restart your mac and try launch iPhoto again.
    If that fails:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a file called ‘iPhoto’Lock.data or similar. Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If not: Where is your iPhoto Library stored? If it's on an External Disk, what format is that?

  • When I send a link via e-mail, how can the link stay hot so that the person getting it can forward to another?

    I type a link to our server in an e-mail. I have tested the link and it works. The person getting the link clicks on it and it works. The person getting it forwards the e-mail to another and the link does not work for the second person.

    It's easy just write it like this :
    http://www.google.com
    i used google as a example you can replace it with any other link but keep http://
    i wish that helps

  • Can't get Mail to work - I get the spinning wheel and Mail freezes.  I have to Force Quit it.  How do I fix this?

    Can't get Mail to work - I get the spinning wheel and Mail freezes.  I have to Force Quit Mail .  How do I fix this problem?

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    I am unable to start or select the MAIL app. No incoming mail and no outgoing mail. I do not even know how to get an answer without email. Can you help?

    Thank you Carolyn, How helpless you can feel without this App!
    Going into the App Store as you suggest, I see 'thee updates available", the first says, 'X RESTART', the second says, 'Garage Band, an error has occurred" (in red), and the third 'Memory Clean, UPDATE'.
    Am I correct in thinking that OSX is the problem, because it is waiting for a restart?
    Kind regards,

  • Can I get Apple Store's e-mail address for customers?

    Can I get Apple Store's e-mail address for customers? My ipad mini with Retina has been delivered to wrong address.

    I do not believe that Apple stores have email addresses - if you are referring to the online store, you can contact them via this link:
    http://store.apple.com/us/help/contact
    (this is for the US store as you do not have any info listed)

  • Can I get a Read Receipt with Mail, like in Outlook?

    Can I get a Read Receipt with Mail, like in Outlook?
    W.W.

    It is possible, though not through the GUI. And as Dave points out, asking for a receipt does not mean that you will get one. The magic incantations for requesting receipts are detailed, amongst other places, in this article. It requires using the Terminal, and once set affects all messages you send until you unset it again.
    If you search this forum for read receipts (the topic surfaces frequently) you should find a helpful Applescript for turning them on and off, to save using the terminal.

    Hello tomzmem,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    This situation does sound very frustrating. I know that you have tried some great troubleshooting steps already and the issue remains unresolved. Have you forced the Mail application to close and then opened it back fresh? If not, this is the next troubleshooting step I would suggest. Please let me know if the issue remains unresolved.
