Closing out of mail in 10.4.7

Good day forum. I have had this problem for months and apple tech has not had a solution: When another application plus Mail is open in 10.4.7 the only way I can close out of Mail is to force quit. Anyone had this problem? What's the fix? All I have been able to do so far is go back to 10.4 .6.
Thanks
Don

Hello Don.
So which version of Mac OS X are you running now. What do you do to go back and forth to Mac OS 10.4.6 and Mac OS X 10.4.7?
What type of account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)?
In Mail, open Window > Activity Viewer. What do you see there when Mail refuses to quit? Actually, you may be able to avoid having to force quit Mail by canceling whatever it's doing (by clicking on the red stop icon of the activity).
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items. What do you see there?
Do you have any third-party Mail plugins? Do you have either a /Library/Mail/Bundles or a ~/Library/Mail/Bundles folder in the Finder?
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

Jumped facebook to a new tab, closed that on, all print blued, closed out wouldn't reopen - safe mode, wouldn't restore

I was on facebook, jumped (by itself) to new facebook tab. I closed it & went to previous facebook tab - all printing blued. i closed out of firefox & tried to reopen. Pop up box said in safe mode & gave me options. I clicked on restore tabs......& clicked start firefox & same pop up came up - I tried 2 more times - same pop up. Closed down 'puter & restarted - opened fire fox - opened in old format ( not firefox 4) & opened a lot of old tabs, not my usual. Wants me to sign up for WOT, which I already have, does not have my wildblue start up page or my mail or other usual tabs? I want my firefox 4 back, plz.

You can reset browser.sessionstore.* prefs that are user set (bold) to the default value via the right-click context menu on the about:config page to make sure that Session Restore is enabled and working properly.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/restore-previous-session
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing Windows Live Mail to close. (0x8E5E0247

Hi
Can you please HELP??
I recently had to change my hard drive for my laptop (Sony Vaio). The IT guy replaced my HDD and ghost all my information
from old to new drive. Everything works perfect except for Windows Live Mail.
When I open WLM I get this error:
“Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing
Windows Live Mail to close. (0x8E5E0247)”
I have since done the following:
PROBLEM SOLUTION 1:
1. Close Windows Live Mail and any other Windows Live programs.
2. Click Start (then Run for
Windows XP), paste the following path below and press Enter:
%Localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Calendars
3. Rename the folder of the account you use to sign in to Windows Live Mail to
sync your calendar (ex. rename [email protected] to [email protected]).
4. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.
5. Launch Windows Live Mail again.
THIS DID NOT WORK SO I DID THE FOLLOWING:
PROBLEM SOLUTION 2:
I removed WLM (uninstall) and reinstalled and still nothing.
PROBLEM SOLUTION 3:
I also renamed the WLM folder and reinstalled WLM, then deleted the new WLM folder and still nothing.
PROBLEM SOLUTION 4:
I also tried to import my emails from WLM to Microsoft Outlook but I only have a copy of my mails from the directory.
I do not have an EXPORT copy saved anywhere. Is there any way I can export the WLM to Microsoft outlook?
PLEASE HELP I AM AT WITS END.

I have had many problems with permissions on Windows Vista, 7,8 & 81.1. It is usually after an update or installation, especially one that requires a reboot to finish (some AVG, Windows Live, Windows Updates, etc). Once File(s), Folder(s)
and Registry Key(s) permissions are screwed up, it can take days to work them out if ever.
After having spent several hours on a clients PC and online forums with this problem. I transferred her user profile with a free program called
Transwiz (run as Administrator) to a zip file on the HDD. I renamed her user in manage User Accounts to "Username old". I then ran Transwiz again to restore the profile but telling it to create a new user using the original Username.
After it completed restoring the profile, I logged out of "Username old" and logged in to Username and all wass well, I only needed to supply the email password which is not transferred. When you move profile data, all the old permissions
have to be removed and <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> permissions added so the data and files belong to the <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> user. This cleared up all the permission
problems.

TS3274 My iPad keeps closing out of apps ...

My iPad keeps closing out of apps, wouldnt let me delete email..is my memory too full.

Did you try either of these?
Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
What do you mean it wouldn't let you delete your mail? Is the mail app crashing? You can swipe across the email in the preview window in order to delete it. You do not have to open the email in order to delete it.

When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works! Any suggestions?

When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works! I have thought about deleting the app from my phone and then reloading it again but I worry that it will delete all my calendar info??? Any suggestions?

To reset, press and hold the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears.
I would delete the app, reset the phone and then download the app again. Your calendar information should be stored on the phone as Week Cal uses the Calendar app information.
Best of luck.

How can I find out the mail server from email address?

Hi:
How can I find out the mail server from email address?
for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
THANK YOU

You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

I just finished using iTunes, closed out and then tried to get ack in. Got this message "The iTunes library .9tl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file." How can I get back ino iTunes ?

I actually figured it out...I had to go to the iTunes Library Extras.itdb file and give myself permission to have full control. THEN, I could go and estore a previos version. Once I had done this, I got the same message for iTunes Library Genius.itdb . . . I did the same thing with it and Voila'!!
Hope this helps...

How to: Send out e-mails through a 3rd party mail host?

Hi,
We would like to send out e-mail campaign from our CRM system.
But we would not like to risc being blacklisted as spammer, so we would like to send out the e-mails using a 3rd party mail host provider.
Our sales department already use our CRM system for sending out their sales related e-mails.
They use our corporate exchange server for that.
So the scenario is:
I have created a smtp node in trx scot, and liked it to our domain *company.com
This node points to our corporate mail host. All our normal users use this domain.
All our campaign e-mails from CRM should be send using another mail host as described before.
According to note 455140, I don't see that I can create a new smtp node in scot.
And link this one to our new e-mail domain *company-news.com and the external mail host.
How do I send these e-mails to a specific mail host when the sender is a specific domain e.g. company-news.com?
My Exchange server guys say that they can't redirect specific mails send from our CRM system.
They can only redirect all mails that are send from our CRM system, but then all the e-mails from our sales reps are also send through a 3rd party mail host.
Does anyone have battled with this before, and how did you solve it?
best regards
Michael Wolff Knudsen

We bought a new Exchange server, version 2007 just for CRM. This Exchange version can tunnel the e-mail to our 3rd party vendor, and they can send out the e-mails so neither one of us gets spammed.

My I pad is not closing out of Facebook and other apps. I have to turn it off to close them

I am having trouble closing out of face book and other apps. My I pad is two years old . I have to turn it off to go into another page.

You cannot remove the software update notification. It will not go away. If you have the iPad2, you can update the device to iOS 6.0.1. It is your choice to not update, but you cannot remove the update notification.

My wife and I shared an Apple ID, I have closed out the iTunes on her iPhone and her iPad. While trying to set up a new iTunes account when I enter her email address it says we have to select a new email address. I have checked and her email is not associated with my iTunes account and really do not want to establish another email account. Any suggestions?

Hyperlinks not closing out in RH

Here's another odd behavior:
When I bring my FM book into RH, my hyperlinks are not closed
out in the converted content in RH. In FM, the hyperlinks are
correctly inserted using the gotolink and newlink Hypertext
markers. Yet in RH, the rest of the sentence in which the hyperlink
appears is also erroneously tagged as part of the hyperlink.
Is this is a bug? Has anyone else seen this behavior and if
so, how did you fix it?

Hello Michael,
This is not an issue, you'd always get the hyperlinks
appearing corrcetly without any tagging in the Design view of RH.
Just try to close and reopen the topic in the Design view or try to
view it in preview - it shoudl appear correctly.
Regards,
Pooja

Cannot drag MP3 attachment out of mail.

Hey All,
Since somewhere in Mavericks, now in Yosemite, I lost the ability to drag an MP3 attachment out of mail. I remember the time I was able to do so. Don't know where or what or why that changed. I can drag it in though, but not out. With things like jpeg, or pdf, I have no problems. I checked all prevs, of Mail app, and Finder.
What Am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Barracuda

i do want to leave 'automatic sync' enabled because, well, i want my phone to automatically sync when i plug it in. i also want drag-drop to work once it's done that, but that's why i posted...
the 2nd drag-drop: "the same drag-drop that worked not two minutes ago" refers to "[[dragging]] .MP3 files from elsewhere on my computer to my iTunes music library". Nothing to do with the phone. In fact the problem still occurs if I disconnect the phone after iTunes has launched.
i'd be interested to hear if anyone else sees this behavior:
1) iTunes launched by Explorer => drag-drop enabled
2) iTunes launched by iTunesHelper (plug in iPhone) => drag-drop disabled
where 'launched' means actually launched, and not just restored from the system tray.

Hi i recently bought an ipad from a friend and when i plugged it in to do the update it closed out and now it wont reconize it and my ipad tells me to plug it into itunes but it wont help me please idk what to do"

Hi i recently bought an ipad 1st gen from a friend i was playing it for awhie and decided to transfer my stuff onto it so i plugged into itunes did the update then it closed out and now my computer wont even reconize it and my ipad says to plug it into itunes like when you first buy them so i plugged it in but my computer wont reconize it and now i cant do anything on it

The way you download older apps for the older, original iPad 1, as I understand it, is if you have iTunes installed on a computer, you purchase / download the new, current app, in the iOS App Store in iTunes on your computer. Then, go back to your iPad and go to the App Store app on your iPad and find the same app there and download it.
When You select app to update/download, a message pop-up window appears asking if you want to download the last compatible version for your device (if one still exists ) tap OK and that should be it.

Firefox claims that it is already running and will not let me start a new session after closing out

I've been having this problem intermittently on both my Dell XPS 8000 and my HP nx7400 laptop. The Dell is running the latest version of Windows 7 Pro and the HP is running XP Pro (fully updated). After closing out of a Firefox session and running other apps, Firefox will not let me initiate another session, saying that "Firefox is already running... Please close the session..." That's not an exact quote, but you get the idea. CTRL-ALT-DEL and all other conventional means don't work and I am forced to reboot the system. This is a royal pain.. and I need some pain relief! Any suggestions? I may revert to an earlier version of Firefox until I see a solution... can't hurt, but I really like 4.0 and I don't look at going backwards as "progress."
Thanks.
Tom

Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

How can I not show my e-mail address in "from" line when sending out e-mails?

I don't want to show the e-mail address in the "from" line when I send out e-mails. Is there a way to hide that?
Thank you!

Okay here is where I am at so far and thanks for sticking with me, we may have success eventually! Can you confirm the following:
1--I Go into the iMac Address Book and click on File/Export/Address Book Archive.
2--It then asks me where I want to save Address Book and I indicate Desktop.
3--I then assume I somehow transfer this Desktop file to the iBook--can I just copy the file, email it to the iBook, and paste it into the iBook Desktop?
Yes
4--If I'm accurate so far, I then do the same with the iBook Archive and save it
to the iBook Desktop.
Yes
5--NOW I open the iMac archive that is on the iBook desktop and it will ask me if I want to overwrite the existing iBook address book and I indicate Yes and it will then place the iMac address book on the iBook.
Yes
6--When and if I want to put the iBook address book back into the iBook I click on the file that is on the iBook Desktop and proceed to put the 'old' iBook address book back in.
That's it.
If I am correct on this, another question arises--does this method transfer every email address I use as I notice in Address Book under 'All Contacts' there are some that are missing. I may not have manually added each and every address to my Address Book so maybe that is why some are missing and may not show up in this transfer of Archives? Thanks for your patience Barney.
That's what I would assume. Like I said, the Archive is really just a copy of the AddressBook folder which contains everything related to Address Book and Mail's previous recipients.
Now, the Address Book contacts and Mail's previous recipients are different entities--they just share the same storage location. So, if that is what you mean by there are some missing, they should still auto-complete in Mail since the previous recipients also is used for auto-complete.
