Cannot Send. Worked fine last week.

Hi - I cannot get email out of my Mail. I see my Outbox (with 8 unsent messages) and below the Sending... is cycling forever. I have checked, rechecked and triple checked my server settings. They are correct and they worked fine last week. I went on a trip over the weekend - came back and I get the sit and spin forever. I have two accounts, a POP with Yahoo Plus and one through my domain. Neither of these will send out. Both receive just fine. I have quit Mail and started it again. I have restarted the computer.
I don't get any errors. It won't tell me what the problem is. My internet is working fine, I have been uploading and downloading all day. I can get and send mail when I log into the web accounts - however I need these 8 to go out!
Help!

Hello again Erin:
This is a short article that describes rebuilding (don't do anything dramatic!):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/10047.html
That process "sometimes" corrects mailbox issues.
I would back up the mailboxes before you try anything:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/15171.html
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/15172.html
If the rebuild does not help, here is a little more troubleshooting information:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/10018.html
Also, check with the respective ISPs to verify that your settings are correct.

When I try to open Help in Vector Works 12.5.5, nothing happens. It works fine when I switch to Safari as my browser. I'm running on a 10.5.8 Mac. It worked fine last week. Any ideas?

Wow! You're amazing! It's now ok! Thanks so much!
I just thought that Rapport will help me to be more secured but I didn't know that it has a side effect. haha!

Suddenly I can't burn any tunes to disc. I receive an error report - 4280. What's the problem? It all worked fine last week.

Suddenly I can't burn any turnes to disc. I receive an error report - 4280. What's the problem? It was all fine last week.

Additional information:
-also ran "Repair" with new download of iTunes
-am using the same spindle of CDs that worked perfectly a month ago. Tried another brand also to be safe. None worked.
-ran CD/DVD diagnostics within iTunes with Apple Care - no issues apparent
-also tried write-speed 20X on advice of Apple Care (don't know why they thought 20X would be the magic number after the other 3 I tried didn't work)
-tried running itunes in another user account on the computer - same problem, same error code
-Apple suggested it was a copyright issue. I can't even burn music that I created/recorded myself, so that doesn't make sense.
-They thought maybe Quicktime wasn't installed properly, so we checked a film in Windows Media - it played, meaning Quicktime was fine apparently.
Solution:
Unclicked CD text option & Sound Check, ran burn from the File drop down menu (max speed) on a Philips CD-R and it worked! Had been right clicking the playlist name and selecting Burn option from there. That being said, it did not work on 2 other brands prior, with same settings. Not sure why. Just happy it's working again. Is it a brand issue?

Can't print on new epson R3000 printer from PE 11 on Mac running 10.10.1. Spent hour with Epson tech support. worked fine last week with Epson R2880 and same OS.

All drivers were updated. Printing works fine with other software.

Still not printing.
In the meantime have done the following: --
1. Launched terminal, typed sudo chmod a+x /usr/libexec/cups/backend/*, followed with pw when prompted, then quit terminal.
Tested printer: no go. Printer setting shows "In use, last used". Printer dialog says "waiting for printer to become available".
2. Launched terminal, typed ls -l /usr/libexec/cups/backend.

3. Reset printing system.
Tested printer: no go.
In the meantime, the iMac is printing to HP Laserjet 6MP (appletalk connected to iMac's USB).

On my iMac, iMessage is only displaying the text of the person responding to me and not the text I am sending them. I do not have this issue with my iPad or iPhone, how do I fix this? It did work fine last week.

I have read through some of the message boards and still can't seem to find this issue anywhere. Please help.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

TS1717 No matter hwere on my computer I download itunes to it gives me this message. 'The itunes library extras.itdb file is locked, on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.' I do not understand as it was working fine last week.

It is driving me mad. I tried uninstalling and redoing it. Still said it so I changed the location it downloaded to, same message.

If Dave's tip doesn't do it for you then perhaps this is the one you need...
Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownership from an account with administror privileges.

Safari unexpectedly closes when i log onto youtube. It was woking fine last week anyone else having this problem?

When I log on youtube my safari shuts down. It works on every other site except youtube. It was working fine last week.

Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Try deleting Safari's cookies and see if that helps. (This won't cause your bookmarks or favorites to be lost, but you may have to retype your username and password when entering sites.)
While you're deleting cookies, you could also erase all your "Temporary Internet Files" and "History". This will freshen Safari for YouTube. Then shut down or restart.
Apple Safari 3:
→ Edit → Preferences (later versions of Safari have the Preferences under Safari in the Menu Bar)
→ Security (tab) → Show Cookies
→ Remove All → Done
after that:
→ Safari → Empty Cache → Empty
after that:
→ History → Clear History

My ipad2 was working fine last night, but this morning is unable to connect to ANY wifi networks (though it can detect them). All typical solutions fail. What can i do?

My ipad2 was working fine last night, but this morning when I woke it up... it no longer was connected to my network. While it can detect networks, it cannot connect to any (have tried at home and at work). I have tried: resetting router, resetting ipad, forgetting network, renewing lease on network, ensuring airplane mode is off, resetting network settings, turning wifi on/off. None of the typical solutions I can find online seem to work. HELP!

You've gone through all of the basics. You might look at this document regarding potential issues with wi-fi environments.

If none of that works, and if a device restore doesn't work, it's time for a trip to the Genius Bar.

I am having the same slowness, irratic, unstable issues with Thunderbird that I had 9 months ago. T-bird worked fine last sunday but now is unstable,

Slow to download email, slow to respond or open email, slow or unable to delete email, "A script on this page may be busy....error message when trying to delete an email. I had similar problems before (9 mo ago) but they went away after dealing with McAfee. Thunderbird worked fine last sunday but when I tried to use it today I now have all these problems.

McAfee has been causing problems again this week, so the remedy remains the same:

Bluetooth seems like working since last week and at the same time I can't manage the Wi-Fi

Bluetooth seems like working since last week and at the same time I can't manage the Wi-Fi. I have already restored.

This entire thing is a hair over four months old, I don't think it should be acting up this much. Plus, this problem happens only once out of every 40 or 50 times I start this thing up. It's very infrequent, but it's there, and it just bothers me, I guess.
That said, I would try reinstalling, but I wouldn't be able to tell if it'd worked unless the problem never cropped up again in a long, long time. Sadly I also don't have access to my OSX discs at the moment (I'm out of the country).

Cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downlods and fear that I have accidentally deleted file that opens photos/movies.....any suggestions???

I cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downloads and fear that I have accidentally deleted what is needed to open photos/movies. Any suggestions please? Should re-install the whole Office:mac program, and is it easy to do this without disturbing what I have on my computer?

When you password-protected these folders then you did so to prevent anyone from accessing the pictures unless he had the correct password, even if he deleted the password application itself. Are you now asking how to get around this protection? If you
selected a robust protection scheme then you probably got what you wanted: uncrackable encryption. You need to check the FAQs of this application and/or google for clues. Alternatively you could restore your files from your external backup medium (if you have
one . . .).

HT1926 i had itunes on my pc for a number of years. worked fine last night even. today, nothing, screen gave error 7, windows error 126, tried removing and re-installing, still same message. says I am missing MSVCR80.dll

I have had Itunes on my pc for years. Worked fine last night. Today it gave me a message missing MSVCR80.dll, tried reinstalling, didn't work. Removed Itunes completely, reinstalled. Didn't work. Same message. Any fix ideas?

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

"Unable to find PPoE server" - worked fine last night!

*The set up:*
Belkin ADSL modem (with ethernet jack)
TC 500gb
MacBook Air
I have the Belkin ADSL modem (not a router) connected to the Time Capsule using an ethernet cable. When I set up the modem, I used a web based interface to enter the username/password settings for my connection. The modem connected ok, and works fine.
During the Time Capsule set up procedure, I was asked how I wanted to connect to the internet. I was given the option of Ethernet, or PPoE.
Assuming Ethernet was the correct option to use, I selected this. However, an error message was received telling me that the amber light would not stop blinking until this was resolved.
I therefore changed the setting to the only other one available, which was PPoE. On the next screen, I was asked to enter my username/password for my internet connection, which I did.
This was successful, the light went green, and I could access the internet.
That was last night.
*The problem:*
This morning, I decided to change the name from "Chris's Time Capsule" to just "Time Capsule". After clicking update settings, I am now receiving the message about the amber blinking light again. I am told this issue needs to be resolved, and I can no longer access the internet.
So I have tried chosen Ethernet from the menu again, however this does not work. Choosing PPoE no longer works now either.
I'm confused why the device has suddenly decided to not work, despite working fine last night with exactly the same settings. Also, all I changed was the name of the device- I'm suprised this has resulted in the Time Capsule not working anymore.
Can anyone perhaps suggest a solution?
Thanks in advance!
-Chris

Hi Uma,
Open your SAP MMC and from menu option select file->add/remove snapin...
Click on add button and then select "SAP Systems manager".
Click next on the next screen and then specify System ID, Instance (as hostname instanceNumber) and then click on add button.
It will add this system in the list in sapmmc.
