Complete IMAP settings to use in Mail for Gmail

Mail users,
Does anyone know the complete settings for Gmail to work with Mail in Snow Leopard. Sometimes there are advanced settings that need to be adjusted, for complete integration, but I'm not sure how to tinker with them.
Any help would be great or articles you can refer me to.
I'm primarily wanting to stop the creation of IMAP/ folders on the Gmail web interface, perhaps there's a way to use those folders as primary locations, who knows?

The GMail site at Google should provide all the required information you need.

  • Using Mac Mail for Gmail - controlling which folders to sync

    Using Mac Mail app for my Gmail, is there a way to control which folders I'm syncing with?  I have 90k+ archived messages, which I don't need to have on my desktop.  Is there a way to keep that from syncing?

    Updated to latest version of Mavericks.

    Go into the Gmail web portal and open Settings. Go to Labels tab and set it to not show those folders in IMAP.

    Hello Sophie59
    You should be able to see two different tabs when setting up the email if you go to Other > Add Mail Account. Once you enter in the email address and password, you should be at the next screen to provide more details about the email as far as incoming and outgoing servers and at the top there will be a blue section to add it in as a POP or IMAP email account. Check out the article below for further troubleshooting and emails setup options.

  • I want to use Mac Mail for my work email address, which containts multiple outbound options (i.e. hr@, me@ etc). Is there a way to set up Mac Mail to have an account with multiple outbound addresses rather than adding in multiple accounts?

    This sounds like the age old problem with keychain & Safari. I don't know of a way to solve it without using something like 1Password.
    The iOS app has it's own built in browser, so it has more control over what gets autofilled. Safari on OS X has an 1Password extension that handles account selection & autofill etc.
    Keychain is great in principle, but it quickly falls down when you need tight integration with many ID's & different use cases (work, home etc).
    I'd suggest you submit feedback to Apple about your thoughts. I did so years ago about this issue & this is how far we have come (back to the point where me.com synced passwords) :^)
    http://apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    Other tools like lastpass or keypassx may also help if you want to truly segregate password storage, but that doesn't fix autofill, the way around that issue is to dedicate one browser for work.

  • On iPhone 5c iOS 8.2, I go to settings, cellular, use cellular data for: Under "use cell data for are my apps but they are greyed out how can I ungrey them??

    iOS 8.2 on iPhone 5c, goto settings, cellular, use cellular data for: all my apps under "use cellular data for" are greyed out. I've restart and hard reset. Looked thru all settings. Can someone help??

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not work, did you try to switch off Cellular Data, restart the phone and switch it back on again?

  • HT1688 iPhone 5S, Settings Cellular Use Cellular Data For Apps - Not Updating

    I have iPhone 5S iOS 7.0.4 with AT&T Contractual Plan.
    When I change any settings in Settings > Cellular > Use Cellular Data For to disable or enable apps to use cellular data. And, if I exit and enter again it shows the old settings.
    Also Call Time > Current Period is not updating.
    This is happening for last one week. I have also noticed heavy cellular data usage for last one week.
    I have reset the phone as a new phone this it is solved, but if I restore from my backup, then the problem is returning again. Even I have deleted some apps, but it doesnot help.
    Please help me to solve this.

    Call AT&T - it seems they are forcing their own settings on you.

    How to use Nokia mail for exchange for N82 so that it can push mails for gmail,yahoo.

    It appears that what you are looking to do is from another product at Nokia called Nokia Messaging.  Go to mail.nokia.com and setup a messaging account and add the gmail and yahoo accounts there.  Then SMS send the configuration program to your device.  Install it.  it will add all the accounts to your device on install and will send messages to your device.  So at this point you will have Mail for Exchange for you corporate mail and Nokia Messaging for you personal mail ( gmail and yahoo).

  • How do I format Mac mail for gmail

    How do I format Mac mail for gmail?

    You really have no way of controlling how the email will look on someone else's computer. I find, with email, the simpler the better. Block paragraphs (no indent on the first line) and an extra line between paragraphs.
    If you want formatting control, I'd recommend using a word processor, printing to PDF and sending that.
    Best of luck.

    You can only set up a Gmail account as an Exchange account if you have a paid account. Google dropped Exchange support for free accounts two years ago. That link is just a bit outdated.

  • Using Mac Mail for BT MyBT mail

    Since BT , in february 2014, changed from BT- Yahoo to BT Mail ( My BT) I have had problems using macmail.
    What the best solution / imap settings ?

    I have been running Mavericks since it was introduced and have had no problems with BT email. I recall that when BT changed its email system a few months ago, some configuration changes were necessary and these were specified by BT. Once the changes were made, everything worked perfectly. I will see if I can find the original instructions from BT and post them here.  Altenatively, take a look at the BT community forum and see if you can find an answer there:
    https://community.bt.com/t5/Email/bd-p/Email
    BT come in for a lot of flack but, given the very large number of subscribers, I suspect that most are quite content with what they get. Bear in mind that, apart from cable providers, all ISPs in the UK use a BT line and I doubt that BT facllitate a better service to their competitors than they can provide themselves.
    If you really cannot get on with BT email, then it is easy to set up an Outlook email account. These are free and have the advantage that, if you change your ISP, you do not have to change your email address. Actually, I recall that you can keep your BT email address if you move away from BT. However, you have to log in something like once a month to keep it active. This sounds easy except that you have to do this by dial-up, and iMacs, at least, do not have dial-up modems. Hmm, maybe I'll think again about how good BT is!

  • I seem to have multiple problems related or unrelated.  I cannot use Apple Mail for blueyonder and mostly for gmail as both show that the server is off line.  My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with pop up windows on nearly every command

    Firstly I am unable to use Apple mail except for hotmail, for blueyonder, gmail or Sky as the server shows as (off line) and I have no idea how to get them on line even though I tell them to go there. 
    My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with advertising windows virtually on ever command I make, one seems to be impossible to unsubscribe from. 
    When I am in an email with a web link the web link doesn't work and I get a window saying that I must have a pop up blocker, but if I switch it off it is no different, what does work is switching the "enable Java script off", then when I get to the web site I can't use it until I switch the java script back on.
    I can't do a screen shot either full or partial, when I try it changes the web site that is on screen to another.
    So what have I done that might have caused problems, downloading Yosemite seemed to be the start of the problems.  Since then I have started to install Mackeeper, after checking with a family members who should know, that MacPaw is safe.  I decided that I didn't want to pay the subscription, so went through the uninstall instructions but it comes up as a pop up with considerable regularity.
    My stress levels have gone through the roof with pop ups happening so regularly and not being able to use Apple mail.o can anyone help please?

  • What are the best sequence presets and settings to use in FCE for the best resolution with the least amount on strain on computer?

    Hello!
    Can someone please help me figure out the best settings to use in order to obtain the best resolution in FCE4 for a television show that is going to be sent out on full size Sony DVcam tapes, with 4:3 aspect ration and audio output at 48kHz? I am currently working with mixed media sources in Final Cut Express, and I am wondering what the best settings (presets and preferences) are, in order to provide the HIGHEST resolution possible, while putting the least amount of strain on my computer system?
    I am importing mini DV-standard definition footage and still photos (from Canon Rebel camera, HD CMOS Canon camcorder that records in 1440x1080 at 48 kHz, and cell phone photos). For voiceovers I use the tools in FCE.
    I use Voltaic (which I use thanks to recommendations from Apple discussion boards, love it!)  to convert the footage from the HD CMOS-Canon HD VIXIA (HG 20) camera, and then I am using print to video to output onto Sony DVcam tapes (full size). This is for delivery for a television network that broadcasts in Standard Definition, so I need to produce the highest resolution and best quality possible that also puts the least amount of stress on my computer system.
    If anyone has any recommendations, help, or sources that can help me answer this question I would be greatly appreciative.
    Thank you!
    Susan Kayne

    This is happening because your video clip properties do not match your sequence settings.  This is always a problem when you try to insert video from multiple camcorders/cameras (that use different video codecs, frame sizes & rates) in a single sequence. 
    It will help a lot if you provide more specifics - what FCE easy setup did you use to create your sequence?  For your DV footage, are you using standard 4:3 DV or anamorphic 16:9 DV clips?
    If you plan to export to standard def (DV/DVCAM) and are mixing DV from a miniDV camcorder, stills, cell phone images and AVCHD then I would suggest that you use the DV NTSC easy setup for your sequence.  Use MPEG Streamclip or similar utility to convert your non-DV video (your AVCHD video) to QuickTime/Apple DV-DVCPRO NTSC.   Then all your video will match your sequence settings.  Yes, you will have to crop the AVCHD footage to 4:3 and you can do that in MPEG Streamclip.
