Compose from non default account

I have 2 email accounts, a corp account and an internet account. When I review emails in the internet account and then compose an email, the blackberry now populates the send using field with the default corporate account. That's new behavior of the BIS according to my ATT support contact. I can't go back to the previous behavior where it just populated the send using field with whatever account I was reading at the time. Anyone know of a workaround? It's a pain to change the send using field every time I write an email from my internet account.
Thanks,

  • Email sending from non-default account

    I have an iPhone4 running 4.3.1. I have two email accounts set up - a Yahoo (POP) account and a GMail (IMAP) account. The Yahoo account is set as default but I have just discovered that when I send a new email it is being sent from the GMail account, not from the default account. Iam fairly sure taht this has only started happening recently. Has anyone any idea what is causing this please?

    I've solved this one! I had a new phone a week ago and restored it from iTunes. After the restore it is necessary to re-enter passwords and I forgot about the password in the SMTP definition for the default (yahoo) account. The non-default (Gmail) account didn't have a password in the SMTP definition so the iPhone cleverly decided if it couldn't send from the default account, it would send from the other one!

  • Mail only being sent from NON-default account

    I have two email accounts set up on my iPhone. One is a POP account - work email hosted by Earthlink; the second is a personal email account on Gmail. For months I've been able to send email from either account. The POP/work email account is designated as the 'Default' account.
    Recently though, when I am in my POP/work email account and I reply to a recently received email in that account, I am able to reply to the email but the recipient receives my reply from my Gmail/personal email account. Again, this a reply I've sent while in my POP/work email account, AND my POP/work email account is even set as the 'Default' email account. Yet, replies are being sent from my Gmail/personal email account.
    The same thing happens when I draft new emails (not replying to message from someone else) - when I draft them from my POP/work account, they are received by intended recipient but show that they came from my Gmail/personal account and therefore all replies to my emails are sent to my Gmail/personal account.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    You are undisputedly THE Man/Woman! Essentially you solved it for me. Following your tip, I checked the SMTP settings of my work email account on my iPhone and somehow (don't know how) they had gotten deleted. In turn, somehow, that was having all mail go through the remaining functioning out-bound mail on my iPhone which was through my Gmail account. In some ways that is weird, but not a bad resilient capability by the iPhone to still send the mail using the other email account info.
    Thanks again. I really appreciate you taking the time to post your thoughts. And I REALLY appreciate you being correct!
    Best,
    Tom

  • When I email myself a picture from my iphone 4s, the email is sent from an email account that I don't have set up as the default account. How can I set it up so that the emails are coming from the default account selected in Mail?

    Under my mail tab, it shows that I have a specific email account set up as a default account. That is the account I would like for me emails to be sent from. But when I actually send out an email such as a picture, it is being sent from one of my different email accounts that is not set up as the default. How can I change this so that future messages will be sent from the default account? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!!

    All photo attachments received or sent with the iPhone's Mail app appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when viewed with the iPhone's Mail app which is the same with the Mail.app on a Mac. A photo attachment that appears inline or viewed in place does not mean the photo was not sent as a true attachment to the message. A photo attached to a message with the iPhone's Mail app is sent as a true attachment to the message. How an inline or viewed in place attachment appears on the recipient's end depends on the recipient's email client. If the recipient's email client does not support viewing an attached photo inline or viewed in place within the body of the message, the attached file must be manually selected and opened to viewed.
    I am getting the email with the Picture Inline ( not as attachment),The picture is shown distorted , no metter what i do and with what mail client i am using (Gmail\Hotmail\My Enterprise exchange mail), i still get the same behavior.
    With which email client?

  • Installing apps from non-admin account

    I read an earlier post that installing apps from a non-admin account is a bad idea because SL applies the wrong permissions. I normally install from a non-admin account.... I don't see that the permissions on stuff I've installed are any different from apps that came with SL. Most everything is drwxr-xr-x. Was this fixed, or am I missing the problem.

    I didn't say anything about a user having write access permission, I was talking about read
    permissions. All apps installed in the /Applications directory should have group permissions
    set to admin or wheel (depending on the type of app), so the system can read them without
    problems. That's the Unix way.
    I completely disagee. The system already has read permission to all applications in the /Applications folder. It doesn't matter what the group privilege is set to. The "other" permissions are set to read only. System (root) can read it regardless. If you can show me an Apple tech article that says that apps installed in the /Applications folder should have their group privilege changed to "admin" or "wheel" then I would gladly take that back.
    +"Leopard does not put any ACLs on anything installed in the /Applications folder"+
    That's right, it doesn't normally, but if it finds an app that it does not have permission
    to read, it will assign an ACE(s) to it so that it can access it.
    I just tested that in 10.5.8, and it does not happen as you say. I can't try it in 10.6. I'd appreciate if you could provide a specific example where you can make this happen.
    Besides, all users, by default, have read only access to all applications. Unless a user specifically changes permissions on an app to deny read access to everyone, then this isn't an issue.

    I know what ACLs are and how they work. I have read through those and cannot find in any of those threads anything about what you had been talking about.
    +"That is also false. Root rights are granted by the user entering the admin username+

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
    "Application installers, Applications folder
    A third-party application installer incorrectly sets permissions on the files it installs,
    or even the entire Applications folder. Symptoms of the Application folder's permissions
    being set incorrectly include applications appearing in the dock as question marks, and/or
    not being able to connect to the Internet. It is also possible that software installed while
    logged in as one user will be inaccessible when logged in as another. To avoid this, make sure
    you are logged in with your normal user account when installing software that you wish to use
    with that account."
    That has to do with third party installer apps that developers have not written properly to conform to OS X standards. It isn't an issue with applications that install by drag-and-drop. It sounds to me like you have looked at the permissions that Apple has put on its own apps and jumped to the conclusion that third party apps won't work unless they have the exact same permissions applied to them. That simply isn't true.
    "Software access=user access
    Most applications executed by a user only have access to the files that the user has access to.
    Backup software, for example, may not back up Mac OS X system files that have root ownership."
    Utilities, especially disk utilities, are to be installed in the /Applications/Utilities folder, for reasons
    stated above.
    No. That is completely wrong. Like I said earlier, an application is given root permission by user authentication. It matters not one little bit what the application's enclosing folder is. I personally have no third party apps in /Applications/Utilities; just what Apple puts there as part of a standard OS X installation.

  • Why is email being sent from my secondary and not from my default account as per my settings - even when I remove the secondary email account?

    I have 2 email accounts on my iPhone 4S. My secondary account is a gmail account. My primary account (not gmail) is set as my default account. Why, when I compose a new message in my primary account and then send, the email is issued from from gmail? And then why if I delete/ remove my gmail account from my iPhone and then compose a new message from my primary account (now the only account on my iPhone) it still sends from the gmail account?

    No, "My Number" was not listed in my Phone menu, I had to manually type it it.  Is there a way for that number to automatically be listed in that "My Number" spot?  Would that maybe have something to do with my phone number not being listed as an option in the "Send and Receive" spot under messaging???

  • Mail opens inbox of non-default account

    I upgraded to OS4.
    When I open the Mail app it goes to the Inbox of one of my accounts that is not my default account. How do I make the main screen of the Mail app appear when I open it?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I've the same problem. I thought it always opened in my default account (but this happens to be the first account). When I change the default account, it still opens in the inbox of the first account.
    If it is still "open" in the "most-recently used" bar, it opens in the last location I left it. Doesn't matter if I open from the most-recently used bar or the normal dock.
    As I try to close a s many apps as possible to save my battery, most of the times when I open mail, it goes to the inbox of my first account. And a lot of the time, this is not where I want to be.
    Very annoying, hope there will be a solution for this soon!

  • Can't run programs from non-admin account: redux

    Background: I have years of experience with PCs, very little with Macs. I work with children in a group home. The tech support people who set up this iMac (OS X 10.2) have long since departed, and no one in the organization has any clue as to what changes they made to this system, and I'm sure that those tech people made some changes. For example, in admin accounts other than "root," either there is no access to the Utilities folder or the folder has been well hidden.
    The Problem: The boys in this home will use a non-admin account. The programs I have installed for them will run under admin accounts but not under the "boys" account, which is non-admin. The system tells me that the account does not have enough access privileges to run the programs. (Program that had been installed before I got access to this iMac will run under the "boys" account.)
    In discussions on this forum several months ago, I thought the answers I got here had helped me solve the problem. Then, for administrative reasons, I did not touch the iMac until last week. What I thought had been solved is not solved.
    From "root," using the "Capabilities" option in the Accounts folder, I have added to the "Add other applications..." section the programs I want "boys" to have access to. But this doesn't work. When I log in to "boys," access is denied: insufficient access privileges.
    If I give up on this system, the boys will not be able to use this iMac, and that would be a shame.

    I realize that it sounds like I ignored all the previous advice before I drafted this latest post. But the first thing I did when I returned to the iMac was to look at the posts.
    I didn't touch the system for six months. I was waiting for approval from administration to upgrade the OS. By the time I got the approval, upgrading was no longer an option -- according to the manager of the local Genius Bar. This system is not capable of running 10.5, and Apple will no longer sell 10.4. I can find 10.4 on the Net, but those are private sellers and the price is too high.
    Now that I've got that out of the way, the current task: I have no idea why, but the gains I accomplished six months ago have disappeared. The "boys" account can run none of the software I installed. No one else has touched the system. (I live alone.)
    I logged on as "root" and went to Accounts. Using 10.2's Capabilities function, I tried to check all the boxes for "boys." But when I close the screen and then re-open it, the system has unchecked "Open all System Preferences"; "Change Password"; and access to "Utilities."
    At this point I cannot create new folders under "boys." "boys" can run software that was installed before I got the machine, but that's all.
    I have to assume that I inadvertently did something that wiped out my previous gains. But I ain't got a clue.

  • Can't run programs from non-admin account

    I'm new to the Mac and rusty with -- but not new to -- UNIX. I'm working with an iMac running OS X 10.2. I have installed several programs in a non-admin account (called "boys"), but they will not run from that account. The "get info" screen tells me that the "boys" account is the owner of the program. Read/write permission is enabled. When I try to run the programs, I get this error message: "The operation could not be completed because you do not have enough access privileges." I have installed the same programs in an admin account, and the programs run just fine from that account. I'd like to get this working so that the boys in the "boys" account can actually use the system. I have "inherited" this system from prior users. Programs that were on the system when I got my hands on it do run -- for the most part -- from "boys."

    Thanks for the reply, Ken. My various unsuccessful attempts to solve this problem led me to create a folder named "Programs." (I know, my PC roots are showing.) I did this for two reasons: 1) I hoped that this would give me more control over what was happening; and 2) I wanted to give the children with whom I am working an easy way to find the programs that I want them to use. When I use < cd /users/boys > and then do an ls- l, I see the Programs folder. An ls -l on that folder shows all the program I have loaded and indicates that the "x" permission is applied to owner, group and others. Moreover, I assumed (incorrectly, perhaps) that installing the programs using the "boys" non-admin account would make them the "owner" of the programs and that "x" permission would follow. Well, ls -l indicates that they are the owners and that they do have execute permission. I can only guess that the prior users of this system -- and nobody in this organization seems to know where they are -- did something that requires more than Advil to overcome.

  • Sending mail from non-BT accounts

    I have email accounts with Apple (mobileMe), my own domain (hosted by Verio) and another of my own domains (hosted by Network Solutions) - as well as the BTinternet.com email account. 
    Until today, all four accounts were set up on my email client (Apple Mail) to use their own respective SMTP servers for outgoing mail, and all four have worked fine in this way for literally years. 
    This morning, I started getting error messages trying to send mail from the domain hosted by Verio ("cannot send message using the server [my own domain's SMTP server]").
    In the end, I followed the steps outlined in a thread on this forum to "add" the account to BTYahoo, verify it, and change the email client settings to use BT's SMTP server. So now it works fine.
    What I don't get is why I had to change this one account, when the other non-BT accounts (Apple and NS SMTP servers) continue to work fine as they are (ie using their own server details for outgoing mail).
    Anyone know the answer?  Obviously it works, so there's no problem (apart from wasting 2 hours this morning trying to figure out what the **bleep** had gone wrong), just curious as to BT's logic here.
    Solved!

    Hi Gregch.
    To be honest, the problem seems to be at the destination smtp service end and nothing to do with BT. You've not really supplied any details of the error message - is there anything else in the received message ?
    You've assumed that it's a BT fault, rather than perhaps investigating the possible error at Verio. As the other accounts work as exists, it really does point at Verio (or indeed something local, perhaps a security package interferring etc).

  • Used email to text from non-Apple account on a PC, recipient's reply went to my iMessage. She just responded to what I sent.

    I'm at a loss on how to troubleshoot this. It's a big deal because this is a client and prompt communication is key - hard to do when replies are heading off to wherever.
    The original email was sent from an AOL account on my desktop. The recipient was entered as [email protected], the from was my non-Apple email address. Her response showed up only on my phone as an iMessage, and she is certain that all she did was reply to my text.
    What do I even check in this case? Is there a setting on her phone that might cause this? I don't have her phone specs available, unfortunately.

    It is confusing!
    The original message went from my email account ([email protected]) to the recipient [email protected] Our office frequently uses this method to send text messages to clients.
    She hit reply to that message, and instead of going back to the orignating address (which is typical, we do this all the time), it went to iMessage - even though my iPhone had not been in any way involved in the exchange.
    I just disassociated my email address from iMessage using the directions you gave. I believe that should fix the problem.
    Thanks for your assistance!

  • Removing Hard Disks from non-administrator accounts

    Hi all.
    I am wanting to set up a second (non-admin) account on the mac. Which I have done although I would prefer it to only mount the main internal drive when in 'guest mode'.
    Let me explain a bit better. Currently I have the Main system drive, a second internal drive an a number of firewire drives that I use with my account which is the admin account. I wish to set up an account for the kids so they can use a few apps and the internet etc but I only want them to have access to the main internal drive and there own home folder. This would leave me safe in the knowledge that all my hard work (ha!) is safe.
    Any help would be appreciated
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Move your work on the additional drives into specific folders on those drives, and then choose Get Info from the File menu for each folder. Set the permissions to Read & Write for yourself, with you being the owner, and No Access for other accounts. Repeat this for each folder which contains your work, and then do the same for the actual drive, this time setting the other permissions to Read Only, as well as unchecking the Ignore Permissions on this volume option. You should not set a disk's permissions to No Access, and you should not change the permissions at the top level of a Mac OS X startup disk at all. Your kids will see the external hard disk, but won't be able to delete anything from it or look at your work.

  • Sharing external hard drive from non-admin account

    We have 2 G5 Mac's in our prepress dept. at work. There is one external FW hard drive shared from G5 #1. I decided to turn the account I use on a daily basis to a non-Admin account (on G5 #1). When I do this, G5 #2 can no longer access the FW drive that is connected to G5 #1. It doesn't even show up on G5 #2 in the list of volumes to mount. As soon as I turn the account on G5 #1 back into an Admin account, G5 #2 has access to the FW drive. I've tried changing permissions on the drive and checking "Ignore ownership on this volume" all without success. No matter what I try, G5 #2 can only access the FW drive if G5 #1 is set up as Admin. Is this normal or am I missing something? Both G5's are running Tiger 10.4.11.
    Eric S.

    I knew what Sharepoints was but I had never used it before. Since your last post on this topic, I downloaded and installed it. I still can not make the external drive accessible to the other Mac unless my account is an admin account. Maybe I'm missing something in Sharepoints or have a wrong setting somewhere.
    I'm just beginning to mess around with Terminal and Unix commands so I have no idea how to do what I'm trying to do from Terminal.
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • Restoring admin account from non-admin account

    For a while I've had a problems booting and logging in, which is either a HD or corruption problem, but once in to my admin account, I'm fine for the rest of the day. (This isn't a question about these problems, I know I must do something separately about that.)
    This morning I had greater problems than usual, followed by a problem in my admin account - having saved a document once, the next time I got ("[document] could not be saved"). So I restarted, but couldn't get from my login account to my main admin account (after the login details box disappeared, I was left with the empty Leopard splash screen). A second restart brought the same result. I can assume my admin account has some corruption?
    I'd like to restore the admin account from the Users folder on yesterday's Time Machine backup, but how do I do that from one of my other accounts, all of which are non-admin accounts?

    2. They put Leopard on my machine as - incredibly - they didn't have Tiger install disks, but they couldn't give me the Leopard install disks so I can't do a system restore.
    That's a violation of the license. Legally, you're running pirated software. Worse, you can't restore OSX or Apple apps, repair your internal HD, do a full system restore from your TM backups, etc.
    You need a retail Leopard disc, period. If the folks who installed it won't supply it (you might gently suggest that you'll report them to Apple), call AppleCare and pay the $129. If you're going to run Leopard, you need to pay for it.
    Or, return to Tiger. On your EHD running Tiger, use the Restore tab to copy the entire Tiger OSX volume to the internal HD. Be sure to check the +Erase destination+ box. That will, of course, erase everything on your Leopard installation. You might be able to copy some of the data elsewhere temporarily, then copy it back, but any data used by Leopard may not work with the Tiger apps.
    I've now determined, by trying to login to the iMac HD via Restart+option that my admin account is corrupted - I can login to every other account but not that one.
    However, as I explained, i can see all its folders and files via the Tiger account with the same name and password. Here is a possible action plan, let me know what you think?
    Does that sound workable?
    Doubtful.

  • Update iTunes from non-Admin account?

    I had to install iTunes from an admin account, but I use it from an non-admin account. When I get the message that there is a new version available, can I upgrade from the non-admin account? I don't want to try it without knowing because I don't want to corrupt anything. I'm on Windows XP.

    No, you log out of you limited user account and update from an administrator account.
    Personally I don't trust updating from within iTunes and I always download the installer and save it on my PC before running it.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    As I am rather paranoid, I make copies of iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Library.xml before updating, do this with iTunes closed. But iTunes should make a backup of its own when updating. Unfortunately if you have to update from an account that is not your usual one, it will backup the library of the account you update from, not the one you want.
    Added : Actually I may be wrong in my last point. If the backup is made when you first open iTunes and it converts the library, you may be OK. But I would make a copy anyway.
