Checking e-mail through google no longer works...

All,
I finally made the switch to iCloud from mobile me three days ago. I check my mac.com mail through gmail and today I noticed that I have not received e-mail through gmail for three days - I am getting authentication failed message. Do I need to change the pop and smtp addresses, or is this just a problem with iCloud and gmail?
Bryan

Ugh, I did a google search for iCloud and POP mail and found many discussions that answered my question: POP mail through mobileme was supported, but is no longer supported through iCloud. I wonder if I'm still receiving mail on my android - I left it at home, whoops.
EDIT: The post that confirmed this issue <https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3374746?start=0&tstart=0>

Search in Google no Longer works--still

Although it is visible, when I select text and choose "Search in Google" from within an e-mail, nothing happens. This holds true for both my imap and smtp accounts. Safari does not open, nor Firefox. I have tried setting and resetting my preferred browser. I am not sure, but I think this started with the last update. Help.

Hi Datron, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.

Microsoft exchange on google no longer works

as of 1hour ago.....exchange with google no longer works. i stopped receiving mails and deleted account and tried to enter it again it fails verification.
do u experiecne this?

I second that, and my wife thirds it. In the last couple hours, it stopped working for both of us. We're accessing Google Apps email through Google Sync, which is an implementation of Exchange ActiveSync, so I'm guessing the problem is with Google. Anyone else seeing this?

My mail signature links no longer work

my mail signature links no longer work

Hello Immunetoall,
What video links?
Are they stored locally on the computer or are you visiting a website?
What browser do you use?
Where do these videos link to? (e.g. youtube)
What happens when you click on a video link? Saying "it doesn't work" doesn't really tell me what you are seeing to be able to accurately understand your issue.

Mail Accounts Shortcut no longer working in Lion

In Snow Leopard I heavily relied on some custom shortcuts for switching between my different email accounts when sending mail as outlined in this site: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20081120093222315 . Then I upgraded to Lion and much to my chagrin, these shortcuts are no longer working. I have tried everything to get them to work: resetting passwords to defaults, repairing permissions, deleting my universal access and keyboard .plist files. What I have noticed is that it may be a problem with the "<>" characters used by mail in this field. When I create a shortcut in System Preferences I will type "SV <[email protected]>" and exit System Preferences. When I go back in it says ">SV <[email protected]>". No matter how many times I go in and try to fix this it doesn't work. If anyone else is having this problem or if anyone has any suggestions, Please Help!

This is difficult to sort out without hands on access to the webapp. I think Firefox should still allows your webapp to detect the Shift+F9, or at least it does in this simple example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Test Shift+F9</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Try Shift+F9<br><input type="text" name="textinput" size="25" value="sample value"></p>
<script type="text/javascript">
function keys(key){
if (!key) {
key = window.event;
key.which = key.keyCode;
if (key.which == 120){ // F9 key
if (key.shiftKey){
alert("Shift+F9 pressed!");
} else {
alert("F9 pressed without Shift!");
return false;
document.onkeyup = keys;
document.body.focus();
</script>
</body>
</html>
It's possible that a change in Firefox 19 is interfering with the function triggered by the Shift+F9 keyboard shortcut. Is there another way to run it to see whether that might be the case?

Why does google (and only google) no longer work in toolbar search box?

The search box on the Firefox toolbar - not the google toolbar- no longer works if google is selected as search engine, gives a not found error to any search. Other search engines work, but google is broken. Google works fine anywhere else, just not from stock toolbar search box. Windows XP, Firefox 16.0.1.

Thanks for the help, but that didn't work. "keyword.URL" was not bold and it wouldn't allow me to select reset. what next?

New Mail Alert Tone no longer working

I didn't change any settings and in my preferences, it's still set for the new mail alert tone to sound when I get new mail. However, as of yesterday, it's no longer working. I still get the sound when I send mail out, just not when new mail comes in. How do I fix this?
Thanks,
Carole

Ok, this is weird. This morning my new mail alert tone started working again. I have no idea what made it stop, or what made it come back on.

Apple Mail smart mailboxes no longer work

Well, the subject says it all.
I am running Mail 7.3 under Mac OS X 10.9.5 and have 8 smart mailboxes set up. However, as of this morning, none of them are displaying any emails, along with all the VIPs. However, all other folders etc are working normally.
Any suggestions anyone?
Joe.

Ok, so I was right about the Combo updater - wouldn't install on my system.
So I tried all your other suggestions (well, except for installing Yosemite) and no go, although I'm not sure that resetting my file and folder permissions worked properly (I waited 15 mins and still didn't get the 'reset' button back again, so I just continued on with the rest of the steps).

Anyway, I'm gonna try the whole reset of my files and folders again and leave it a lot longer this time and see what happens.
Joe.
PS. Thanks again for all your help!

Why is Google no longer working properly in Safari?

I have Google for business (I think that is what it is called...they keep changing the name). About two weeks ago, it started stopped working properly in Safari. My left column of mail boxes often disappear and the pain with the emails in it either doesn’t show up properly or doesn't scroll. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, how do you solve it?
I have Safari 7.0.1.
Thank you,
Ian

Auto complete in subject line of email in google no longer works. Gmail used to work with autocomplete subject line and no longer responds.

Somewhere in the updates of Google and Firefox the subject matter history does not remember the common subjects that I use everyday. The auto feature saved me typing the subject line every time I send repetitive messages and mail to different groups. No forums online seem to have an answer but many have the problem. I don't know if it is a Google issue or a browser issue.

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [[Form autocomplete entries are not saved]]
* [[Form autocomplete]]
Check and tell if its working.

Sending mail via forms no longer working

Recently, on one of our servers (XServe G4 - 10.3.9) was running both web and mail. Mail was moved off of the server 2 days ago onto a newer server (10.4.7)
The web server has: php4.3.11 and is ONLY running AFP/OD/Web
Since the transfer of the mail server to the new machine, all web sites can no longer send mail via their scripts (either by sendmail, php's mail(), or by connecting to SMTP server via php).
The web logs do not show errors when it attempts to send the mail...
A look at mail.log shows
"relay=cyrus, delay=2558, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Connection refused_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_)
As far as I'm aware, the web server/sendmail shouldn't be attempting to use cyrus at all. For the record, Cyrus master is not running.
All users can access the mail server without any difficulty. DNS entries have been checked and double checked.
Does anyone know why sendmail and php mail functions stopped working? I really need to get these web forms functioning again. Is the problem with apache, php, sendmail or something else?

Hi Camelot,
Thanks for the quick reply and useful suggestion. I did as you mentioned and fired up the mail server.
The mail "delivered" however, I notice a couple issues in the logs (mail.log)
issue #1: I have to start cyrus master manually via > sudo /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/master SA and command line start/stop of mail does not start master. Also, when starting master from command line as mentioned, terminal hangs.
issue #2 (from mail.log) - still getting the same lmtpd error (but messages do finally get delivered):
Jan 14 03:58:24 www postfix/pipe[2914]: 3503858502D: to=<[email protected]>, relay=cyrus, delay=5327, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Connection refused_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmptd_ )
Jan 14 03:59:39 www postfix/cleanup[2906]: B60AE58572B: to=<[email protected]>, relay 123.123.123.123[123.123.123.123], delay=0, status=sent (250 Ok: queued as 9FBF41BCBCA)
Do you think these are "issues" to contend with or are they "normal" occurances?

Upgraded to OS X Yosemite and Mail notification sound no longer works

Hi, I upgraded to OS X Yosemite yesterday and when my Mail notifications come through I only get the banner no sound. I have turned on the sound preference in my the Mail preferences and the Notification Centre preferences. Is there any other way to get the sound working for these notifications. All my other notifications that come through have the sound as well.
Thanks. JV.

E-mail Reply function no longer works -- only when using Firefox. Gives blank compose screen. Have tried settings changes. Have un and re installed firefox.

Problem does not occur when using a different browser.

Is it Yahoo! mail?? Many users have discovered all kind of problems and glitches with Yahoo! mail in Firefox when using an old bookmark saved before Yahoo!'s recent server changes.
I suggest clearing your Yahoo cookies and entering through the main page to get a better address for your current mail server.
To remove your Yahoo cookies -- save any pending work first -- call up the Cookies dialog while viewing any page on yahoo.com (or your Yahoo site). You can use either:
* right-click the page > View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then go to one of these Yahoo addresses and click on login or mail from there:
* Yahoo home page: https://www.yahoo.com/
* My Yahoo page: https://my.yahoo.com/
* General mail redirect: https://mail.yahoo.com/
* AT&T users: http://att.yahoo.com/
* Other country sites (not on .com): the main Yahoo page for your country
Does that help?

Any app audio through Airplay no longer works on ipad2 after 5.1.1 update. Working Airplay on my iphone.

I have a working Airplay connection to my Pioneer VSX-1021 Receiver. My iPhone 3GS and iTunes on my PC connect and send audio with no issues.
On the ipad2 through the music app for instance, I am able to select the Receiver as an Airplay destination but the blue Airplay icon soon goes white and it defaults back to iPad. The scrub bar and time counter never advance. Similar results with Garage Band. Settings on ipad and iphone are the same.
I have noticed this since upgrading to 5.1.1 but it could have been this way prior to the upgrade.
Any ideas?

Honestly, this is a WAG but try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

E-mail alias address no longer working

I am using two e-mail addresses, one the original @verizon.net and an alias I set up @xxxxx.com
I was regularly -- but it seemed sporadically -- getting this following message, sometimes when I tried accessing, but sometimes just when the Apple Mail was open but I wasn't doing anything:
Enter the password for user “ -- alias address --” on IMAP server “mail.alias.com”
For a while I hit 'cancel' and everything worked fine.
But then I went into "account" and tried to fix the problem ... and I think I changed the password for the alias. In any case, I am unsure what the password is...and I can't see it on Preferences/Accounts.
I have used the password that works for the @verizon.net ... but that does not make a difference.
Now the root "Inbox" and the "alias" addresses have the tilde by them, indicating offline. Nothing I do gets rid of the tilde. I get that same 'request for password'.
NOW I am NOT receiving e-mails to the alias address. I really need this alias, it's my business address.
AS I WAS TYPING THIS, the message from Apple Mail popped up again. I had to hit 'cancel' or 'OK' (back and forth, each one) several times before it stopped popping up. This has happened before.

the verizon settings are here, and or you can use their auto email set up.
»www22.verizon.com/residentialhel···6652.htm
These are sample settings for a non verizon email address (@gmail.com for example)
Incoming
Your incoming mail server
no ssl
Your email address
your username
your password
outgoing
outgoing.verizon.net
no ssl
my server requires authentication = yes
your verizon username (should be the same thing that you use to sign in at »webmail.verizon.com, test your password by logging in at that website, if it doesn't work, then reset your password and use the correct information)
your verizon password
should work on 25 since this part is verizon, but if it doesn't work for whatever reason try 587
sometimes third party mail servers don't play nice, and don't use 587 for their alternate port. like go daddy often uses port 80 for ougoing as an example.
The Problem is you are unsure what your incoming password should be, and so whoever your provider is, you'll want to either go to their website, and do their self help option for "i forgot my password" reach out to their chat support, or call them to reset your password. The password is very important, so if there is a webmail version of that provider (for example gmail has gmail.com) then you should try the i forgot password option at their website.

Checking e-mail through google no longer works...
