Cant get my. mac email to go online. Something to do with cetificates

I cant get my email .mac email to go online. All my settings are correct. It keeps flashing up : Mail was unable to verify the identity of the server, which has a certificate issued to "mail.mac.com. The error was: An SSL error occurred while trying to read data from the server"mail.mac.com" It's driving me crazy, e-mails are coming through fine on my iphone, and the pop accounts on the same mac.

How long ago was it working?
Do you have another Mac with 10.6.8 or higher on it so you can get an iCloud account?

    I forgot my security question answers and i cant get the rescue email. I emaild the apple people and they cant do anything to fix it. the problem is i put the hundred dollar gift card on my account and now i cant use it on my mac and im really impatient now because this has been going on for a while! please if you have any answers just tell me how to fix it.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I cant get my Mac Book to connect to my Apple tv

    I cant get my Mac Book to connect to my Apple TV.  My Ipad and Ipone connect just fine.
    The Icon that should be at the top of my desktop is not there and the Apple tv mirrioring option in the Display system pref is not avalible
    Any sugestions would be great.

    If you´ve already verified if your Mac is able to connect to Airplay (note, Mountain Lion is not the point, but your Hardware is)
    try to note this?
    1. both are connected through the same wifi?
    2. you´ve entered the Apple TV with the same Home Sharing (Apple ID) active?
    * I mean, both Mac and Apple TV must be configured with the same Apple ID, and Home Sharing should be turned on in your iTunes.

  • How can I get my mac email account to work?

    How can I get my mac email account to work?

    That requires you to enter the configuration correctly.  You can find out the configuration for your email from your ISPs website in most cases. Or if you're using Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail you need only Google something like:
    "Gmail configuration for Apple Mail"  or  "Hotmail configuration for Apple Mail" (without the quotes). 
    That should get you started..

  • Can I get a Mac email address without using the cloud?

    Can I get a Mac email address without having to use the cloud?  The OS on my desktop computer has not been upgraded to support it yet, but my phone will.

    Apple don't provide @mac.com addresses anymore. They haven't done for years.
    You can get an @me.com email address but ony by signing up for iCloud on an iOS device or Mac.

    My desktop is covered with Firefox logos.
    If Microsoft can handle it, then so should Firefox.
    Since I drag the website logo, on to the desktop, why does it 'convert' to Firefox?

O B. it tells me I have wrong date of birth. so I am stumped, any ideas bilmac

    COME ON PEOPLE. (WHY ARE THE LETTERS SO BIG HERE?) I AM VERY OLD AND JUST LIKE THINGS TO STAY THE SAME. I DID NOT, DO NOT, WANT ICLOUD TO DO ANYTHING I HAVE NOT USED IT AT ALL YET IT HAS MANAGED TO MESS UP MY EMAIL ADDRESS WHICH I HAVE BEEN USING FOR YEARS, IT ASKS FOR PASSWORD THEN REJECTS AND WHEN I TRY TO RESET WITH APPLE ID THEY ASK FOR SECURITY AS I CANNOT ACCESS THE EMAIL ADDRESS THEY HAVE FOR ME BECAUSE ICLOUD ASKS FOR PASSWORD, THEN APPLE TELL ME I DONT KNOW MY OWN DATE OF BIRTH, VERY CONFUSING

  • Need to do a hard reset on an iphone 4 but cant access apple id account and cant get reset to email address as it has been closed.

    cant finish a hard reset on iphone 4, i cant access my apple account as i forgot the password and cant get a reset sent to the email address i had as thats been deleted, does anyone have any ideas?  i still have the box the iphone4 came in so i do have the serial no. 

    Going to Apple is pointless. They will not do anything to help. Activation lock is an anti-theft feature.
    If the seller "forgot" the pasword for her Apple ID, then she needs to re-set it so that it can be used to unlock the phone. If she says she can't for some reason, demand your money back. If she refuses, I stand by the statement that the phone is most likely stolen.
    The phone is completely useless without the Apple ID and password.

  • Cant get my MAC code

    I am trying to change my broadband from AOL to BT and need to get a MAC code from AOL to complete the transfer. The AOL account is registered in my ex-husbands name and he cannot be contacted (its a long story !) and AOL need certain information that I do not have before they will release the MAC code. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can break this stalemate ?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    A "tag" is placed against your line details, which prevents BT from providing service. Once AOL ceases the service, this "tag" should be removed. You can then order service from BT.
    Delays can occur if this "tag" is not removed. The MAC process was introduced to try to make things run more smoothly, but it does not always work out that way.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • Every week I seem to lose my passwords for my Mac Pro mail service. Cant get or send emails.

    Today, as in the past, all of a sudden my email (apple Mail) lost my passwords and I cannot send or receive emails.  All the mailboxes have icons of a tilda or a stop sign.  Where do I go to get this fixed? I have tried a private contractor, and ATT support help to no avail.

    Mac OS X 10.4.7 introduced connection issues in Mail similar to what you’re observing as a result of (according to the documentation) “Mail now supports connecting to mail servers through a SOCKS proxy”. If that’s the problem, it can usually be fixed by going to System Preferences > Network, choosing the network port configuration used to connect to Internet from the Show popup menu and disabling the SOCKS Proxy in the Proxies section, if it’s enabled.
    And while you’re at it, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
