Can't paste address in mac mail

Hi All,
I have just recently moved across to Mac. I am running Lion on a Macbook Pro. I can't paste to the "To" or "Cc" from the magic mouse. I can paste anywhere else and use the command V to paste to the "To". I have searched this issue and noticed it has been mentioned before. I take it it has not been resolved.

I'm not on 10.6 at the moment to see what might be the problem, did it wok in this version before, or was it an earlier OSX version?

HT4597 I can no longer access my mac mail in the Mail program - only on icloud. I would like to have both my aol account and mac account in one place like it was. Anything I can do?

iCloud's mail server settings are different from MobileMe's. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Snow Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

The situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard is described in detail here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL.html
iCloud cannot access your AOL account (the MobileMe facility for checking external POP accounts does not exist in iCloud) - you will have to do this in the Mail application in the usual way. You could of course set up forwarding from your AOL account to iCloud (assuming they provide this facility) but you will not be able to reply using iCloud's SMTP server with anything other than the iCloud address as the 'From' address.

Import my addresses into mac mail via .csv file

i would like to import my addresses into mac mail.
i have my yahoo addresses saved on my desktp as a .csv file. can you tell me how to import these
thank you

You cannot import addresses into Mail. You must import them into Address Book for them to be available in Mail. Open Address Book, then Help > Address Book Help, and read the “Importing contacts into Address Book” article to see how this works.

In Gmail I can setup other accounts to "send" email from- can I use these other addresses in Mac Mail

In Gmail if you click the 'cog' button under your username you can choose "Settings" from the drop down menu. From Settings you choose the accounts and import tab and can enter other email addresses. This is useful to me because I have an email address [email protected] and while foobar.com host a server, the is no actual mail server but it can forward emails to aliases on that domain to some other another email address setup by admin.
When I compose a message in Gmail in the browser I can choose [email protected] or [email protected] as my send address. I almost exclusively use my gmail account through Mac Mail on my MBP as an IMAP account.
My question is, can I set up Mac mail in some way to send an email from the gmail server but using the alastair@foobar alias(es) as the send address?

Hi...
Thanks for your repaly .
and i am not bale to post a question in developer forum i tried hard but i didnt get .Can you plz explain me how to post a question in developer forum this is very helpfull for me.Because i never did this thing.

Copy & Paste an Address in Mac Mail

How do you copy & paste an address in a mail draft?
I've tried everything including cntrl C but nothing. Coming from Windows, Mac mail has a lot to be desired!

No, that's the way I've tried it & no luck. Again, the copy & paste works normally in all other apps BUT mail. It will not let me copy & paste an address from a previous incoming mail & then paste that address in a mail draft to send out.
This is important in my biz - I was hoping Apple could respond & fix this - no one else here has this problem with copying mail address & pasting it in a mail draft?

Can anyone tell me how to move my email addresses from Mac Mail to Thunderbird

Hi all.
I've been having so many problems with Mac Mail that I decided to give Thunderbird v17 a go. It automatically imported my emails and account settings but hasn't imported my email addresses. I know they'll automatically be added as and when I reply to incoming emails but I assumed there would be some way of adding my existing contacts in one go. Searched the net for a solution but came up empty-handed. Any help you can give me will be much appreciated.

PRESS AND HOLD THE IMAGE IN THE EMAIL UNTIL THE OPTION TO 'SAVE IMAGE' APPEARS THEN TAP ON THAT.
See how annoying really large text is? Don't do that next time.

Can't receive Gmail in Mac Mail - just started

I can't seem to get any of my imap Gmail in my Mac Mail account - just started happening. Connection doctor is ok, but the little spinner just spins and spins next to my Gmail acct and nothing downloads. Have access through Time Warner Roadrunner. I can see in my online Gmail acct that a few new messages have come in, but nothing will download in MacMail. My me.com acct works ok, just seems to be Gmail. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mark

I should also add that when I try to send a Gmail message to myself at my Gmail address using the Gmail smtp server, the message activity bar goes about 1/2 way across and then just stalls.. Then I have two spinning gizmos - one next to my Sent box and one next to my Gmail box. I just tried sending out of my mobile me acct and that doesn't seem to go out either now.
I should also mention that yesterday I accidentally drug in a whole Project out of iPhoto to send a picture to someone and didn't realize Mail was trying to send the whole project. I saw under Mail activity that this was going to take forever, so I tried to cancel it. That may be part of the problem. Bad things started happening after that. I do also in my Gmail acct under the Sent Folder, a solid circle to the right of it with just a tiny part of it showing white, like it was at the beginning of sending something big, but never finished. Is there a way to clear all this out, as I'm suspecting something went amiss there - just a guess.
Thanks,
Mark

How do I separate my e mail addresses using Mac Mail in Mavericks?

Hi All, moving from my beloved Snow Leopard to Mavericks has not been good.
In Mac Mail I have a mix of POP (my main accounts) and IMAP (G Mail) accounts.
Since installing Mavericks the e mail addresses are now all lumped together (as on an iPad) and I do not want this!
Please advise how I can go back to separate addresses listed as before? Help! I choose to prioritise my e mails and a whole lot at once is so not where I want to be! (And it does not look as stylish as before!)
Thank You!

Answered! Ok, I am trudging my way through Mavericks and it seems I have my separate Mail boxes back.
I have to say that I do not like the look of Mavericks. It was so clean, simple and smart before. It feels kind of messy but maybe I need lots more time to get used to it .But so far, a bit sad I've upgraded to Mavericks. I did it first on my Mac Book before doing so on my iMac and at the mo I am not going to!

Mssgs addressed to .Mac Mail aliases

Does anyone know why mail addressed to my .Mac Mail aliases does not get delivered to my iLife '05 Mail on my computer? The mail addressed to my aliases is delivered only to my .Mac Mail on the internet. I have the aliases set up in Mail/Preferences/Accounts of my iLife Mail on my computer. I read in the discussion posts that I cannot send mail from these alias accounts with iLife '05--can't I receive mail either???

You're welcome.
Will email addressed to a .mac alias be delivered to the
Mail Application as well as the .mac Mail Account on the web?
Yes they should.
I set up the aliases in the Mail Application at Mail>Preferences>Accounts.
Did you set up the aliases per the instructions included in this link?

Can't send email from Mac MAIL

I am setting up my new MacBook -- specifically the Mac MAIL, and intend to include a yahoo account and my new mac.com account.
So far, through Mac MAIL, I am able to send and receive email with my mac.com account, but can only receive email on my yahoo account. When I try to send an email from the yahoo account through Mac Mail, I get an error message about the outgoing server. (btw, no trouble if I go through the Safari browser to yahoo, which is why yahoo phone assistant gave up trying).
BUT.....the outgoing server settings are correct, as per my review and the yahoo phone assistant. Still, no luck.
Anyone had this problem? Thanks for any advice.

Kappy,
Am I reading it correctly that you’re suggesting the OP to set up his/her Yahoo account again?
You should never, ever, set up two accounts in Mail with the same Account Type, User Name and Incoming Mail Server. For each account, Mail creates a folder within ~/Library/Mail/ whose name starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the username and the incoming mail server. Having two accounts sharing the same account folder in Mail is calling for trouble. Amongst other problems, deleting one of the accounts would cause the (shared) account folder to be deleted as well, and all the mail stored there to be lost...

How can I create subfolders in Mac Mail for an Exchange account?

I use Mac Mail on OS X 10.8.4 to download my Exchange mail, which is hosted on Office 365.
I can create folders inside existing subfolders in my Inbox, but if I try to create one as a first-level subfolder of the Inbox the option does not exist. Instead, it creates another top level folder and puts it at the bottom of the folder list, not inside the Inbox.
Can anyone tell me how to add a normal subfolder to my Inbox?

Exchange Basics
The Inbox syncs more frequently than any other and should be kept as clean as possible. (this is the number one cause of problems with sync). Do NOT make subfolders under the Inbox.
Exchange checks the server for updates every minute, any folder that has updates will subsequently be synced. Since Exhange has a limit on how many folders can be synced at a time, there can be a queue of folders waiting. The Inbox does get high priority so it will generally sync before other folders that also need to sync.
Keep your folders under the 2GB limit. That's approx 6-10K messages per folder (does not include subfolders) Outlook does not export folders over 2GB as .mbox files
Exchange Header
Inbox
Folder A <---this is wrong
Drafts
Deleted Items folder
Junk
Folder A <-- this is correct
It's best to move folders using your web interface (OWA) but you can drag in Outlook and/or Mail.
In Browser via OWA
Because of the massive changes the process is best done in your browser. I would also put Mail into work offline mode during this process. After all is moved on the server via the browser, I would delete the Exchange account and let it all download correctly from the server.

I can't receive email in Mac Mail but I can send them

I use two email programmes on my Mac Mini - Thunderbird and Mac Mail. I can receive and send emails on Thudnerbird and I can send emails on Mac Mail but I can't receive the. Next to the mailbox is a squiggly line like a wave which I presume is the promblem but I don't know what that problem is.
I don't have this problem on my MacBook Air.
The Mac Mini is using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.
Thanks

If an option exists on networksolutions to allow you to log in to your email via your web browser then access your mail via webmail then try deleting the offending message that way.

Can't delete attachments in mac mail

On the mac mail I used to be able to select a mail, then press “Command” button and “M” to delete an attachment (without deleting the whole e-mail, just delete the attachment). But right now, when I try to delete attachments in some e-mails by pressing those two buttons, it just make a “ding” sound and wouldn’t delete anything. Can you please tell me how to solve this problem?
Since this problem only happening with certain e-mails, I thought it’s probably something wrong with the attachment. So, I forward that same e-mail back to me (including the attachment and everything), I can delete that attachment by pressing those two buttons. So, I am guess there is nothing wrong with the file that has been attached.

I'm not on 10.6 at the moment to see what might be the problem, did it wok in this version before, or was it an earlier OSX version?

How Can I Fix Address Book in Mail?

After downloading 10.9 Address Book in Mail no longer works for groups. I can enter individual names from Address book to email, but not names in groups. How can I fix it? Thanks.

Janice, I have a group named 'UGC' - if I type all three letters it does not autofill in the names anymore. This made me very annoyed. But if I type just 'UG' it prompts me with the last letter of the group name and then it does autfill the member names. Weird. This works in To: CC: and BCC: fields
