Cannot download email from server from certain date forward

It sounds crazy... I can download message from my mail server from 2/3/06 previous, but not 2/4/06 forward. They are on the server (I've seen them on webmail), but cannot get them into Mail. I have spent hours on this, losing sleep. Talked to my ISP (Mediacom), talked to my mail server host (Powweb), and am thrashing my head against the wall when they say it is my computer.
Help!

I had simular problem. I moved a group of emails on the browser into a new folder at the ISP. It looks like for me, that a file was causing the problem. Soon as a particular email was moved out of the INBOX, Apple Mail started downloading my POP mail again. What's good about doing this is that even as a test, you do not loose any information and you can still move the mail back into the INBOX. Good Luck...

Cannot Download Email from Server, but can Send

As of a couple of days ago, I cannot receive email from my main server account to which all other email boxes forward. I can, however, send email.
Tried clicking Advanced, under "check with your system administrator before changing any of the advanced options below:" deselected Use SSL, chose authentication of Password and automatically chose port 110.
That did not work.
Can someone please help me fix this? It is a pain to go to webmail.
Thank you in advance.

I changed the incoming port to 995 with SSL on.
That worked!

Cannot download files from certain websites: log-in prompt

Hi, I am for some reason getting a log-in prompt when clicking on downloadable files from certain websites (pdf files, etc.). It is especially strange because it is happening on multiple sites, which gave me no problem downloading in the past. This is particular to my computer, and it is happening in different locations, so it can't be a problem with my isp or something.
I am getting this prompt:
"To view this page, you need to log in to area "PAGE TITLE" on "www.address.com:80"
Your password will be sent in the clear."
(Where PAGE TITLE and address.com are specific to the page I'm trying to access)
I've tried giving a username and password, but it didn't work. I tried emptying my cache and deleting cookies, renewing my ip address, to no avail. I do not use any proxies, so I am really confused now.
I've found no documentation of anyone else having this issue.
Any help would be appreciated!

i figured it out... it was just a strange coincidence, nothing wrong after all.

Cannot send emails from certain accounts

Gmail account sends and receives fine. Home email account receives fine but will not send unless I am home and connected to my wi-fi. Work email receives fine but will not send.
All smtp servers for all accounts and AT&T smtp server are on.
Suggestions or directions to topics that would help apprecitated.

Your Gmail account can send messages regardless if you are connected to AT&T's cellular network or to an available wi-fi network because Gmail has an authenticated SMTP server.
Most internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP unless the SMTP server is authenticated. The reason you can send messages with your Home email account or ISP's email account when connected to your wi-fi network is because you are connected to the internet with your ISP via your wi-fi network. Most internet service providers do not have an authenticated SMTP server.
If your work email account does not have an authenticated SMTP server, the same applies with your work email account unless you are connected to the internet with internet service provider at work.
These restrictions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
If you have AT&T's SMTP server on for your Home email account and work email account, and an you are unable to send messages with the SMTP server when connected to AT&T's cellular network, it should switch to AT&T's SMTP server to send, but this may take longer than it should or is expected.

Cannot Download Files from Certain Web Site

There is a website I must use for work quite often. Whenever I try to download or open a file from the site, I get the following error:
Safari can't open the file.
Safari can't open the file ""2010 Pennsylvania Release Notes.pdf" because ""2010 Pennsylvania Release Notes.pdf" has moved since you downloaded it.
I am using a Windows XP machine and these files work fine with any other browser. I really want to make Safari my default browser, but it is out of the question as long as this continues to happen with Safari alone.

I just noticed, when I try downloading a PDF file using Safari from this website, it puts a " in front of the file name. It does not do this with any other browser. I think this may be what is causing the issue. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!!

I cannot download email from an existing email account.

I have two email accounts through Earthlink. TB has shifted the default to the second account and I cannot figure out how to shift it back. The second account 9original default account) will not download at all. TB says there is mail, attempts to download and fails.

What you describe is almost always an anti virus program failure.
First reboot.
Second disable email scanning and reboot again if the first did not fix it.

Thunderbird stopped downloading emails from the web server and now when I try to add a new account I get a message to say it cannot find the email server.

Thunderbird was working and then for no reason it stopped downloading emails from the web server. I can access my emails in the web server okay. I have tried to remove my account and then add it again as a new account but I get a message saying that Thunderbird cannot find the email server. I have also tried to uninstall and reinstall Thunderbird but with the same result. I have also tried to remove the default mail server but have been unable to do so. How can I fix this?

I figured out a workaround.... Since I can get e-mails to populate via iSync and my other computer is running Leopard (it's a powerpc chip and can't run Snow Leopard), I added the account on the other computer and got the new account to populate into my SL machine with iSync. I don't like that I can't actually add the account directly, but at least this got me working.

In the mean time I used the .me smtp server settings which allowed me to send mail.

Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

The system cannot download information from the SQLSERVER server.

Hi All,
After BPC 7.0 SP6 for MS install we get the following when trying to access the "Manage Application Sets" or any other admin console task, when we try to execute the connection wizard:
The system cannot download information from the SQLSERVER server.
There may be a network or security issue.
Error Message:Error code: 500
any ideas?
Br
Steven

Steven,
Could you also make sure that the problem is not on the client side.
Is this a fresh installtion on the client machine? Or was there already an previous version of BPC on this machine?
If this is not a fresh install, you can try to uninstall the software and then deleting all the files in the folder
"program files\BPC". I've seen that sometimes not all the files are automatically deleted.
Then installing the Bpc client agian...
Kind regards,
Sam

I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

You can go to the Apple online store and purcahse a copy of Mountain Lion. This will give you a redemption code, which you can use to download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Unfortuantely, I'm not aware of any other way to legally purchase it. I have never seen Apple release Muontain Lion on DVD.
In terms of Apple Service, they just need the serial number of the machine to check the purcahse date. It is usually correct, to within a few weeks. A quick Google search should give you the correct number to dial.
I hope this helps.

I cannot download photos from my apple iphone 4

I cannot download photos from my apple iphone 4. I rang apple who took me through some instructions and talked me through to what to do. We tried both a laptop pc (windows 7) and an apple macbook pro and tried two different cables.
Cannot seem to download any photos at all, both laptop do not seem to recognise the device.
Apple told me to email the photos, this is impracticle as there is such a large quantity.
My issue is still not resolved.
Can you help??

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Cannot send email from ipad?

Then make sure that the settings are correct in your email account.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.
