Too add some more info...
The old iMac is OS X 10.5 with mail 3.6, the new one is the latest.
Mail worked fine until we used the import tool on the new one.
I hooked up a PowerMac he replaced the "old" iMac with and it still recieves e-mail just fine. So it is not the actual e-mail accounts themselves on the server. I duplicated the account setting exactly on both the new and old iMac and they still do the same thing.
What can possibly get messed up by the built in system copy that I have not looked at?????

  • Mail fails to work properly after migrating to a new iMac

    I am helping someone with an issue with their iMacs. They recently bought one of the new models and I did the transfer from the old G5 OS X v10.5 machine to the new one. Everything seems to have gone well - except Mail does not work on EITHER computer now.
    I have been working with the old one (10.5) mostly as it is their secondary computer now; but it is doing it on both of them. It all used to work just fine. Now they are getting:
    Mail stops coming in after "x" number of messages - x depends on the e-mail account. But it seems to stop on the same number on both systems. You can watch the speed drop to 0 kb/s
    It is loading duplicate e-mails on both accounts for messages prior to "x".
    I have removed the com.Apple.Mail.plist file and rebuilt the account.
    I have removed the com.Apple.Mail.plist file and the Envelope Index file.
    Nothing seems to help. Also these are SBC Global E-mail accounts through AOL. Mail complains about the certificates each time but I connect anyhow.
    I am wondering if anyone else has had these problems or if they are actually an SBC / Yahoo issue.

  • Satellite M40: USB Audio doesn't work properly in ACPI mode

    Hi all,
    I just bought a Satellite M40 laptop which purpose will be to be used as a mobile audio system.
    For that, USB audio devices are a great solution.
    Unfortunately, although it was working properly while recording (sound is perfect with all USB Audio compliant devices I could test), there's an issue in Playback as I got lots of clicks and pops.
    After lots of tryings and google searches, I fixed the problem by switching from ACPI computer to Standard PC mode.
    That's a workaround.
    But this way, I don't know anymore what's my battery status, and my laptop do not shutdown automatically.
    In fact, my laptop is no more managed as a laptop :(
    I suspect a very serious issue in one of the Toshiba components management. Especially, I would not surprised to be told that power management leads to some regular short system freeze, and thus the 10ms USB audio buffers fall into underrun.
    This would not bother me so much if I was not part of the technical support team of a company that is also launching some new USB audio products that will fail to work properly with laptops.
    My question is :
    Is there any driver / bios update that gets rid of this issue ?
    If someone from the Toshiba technical support wants to handle this issue directly with me, I would be pleased to help him, as I'm concerned professionnaly and personnaly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your help Jeffrey,
    But
    - I checked with several USB audio devices, from different providers. The issue is the same.
    - I checked with several applications (Winamp, MediaPlayer, ...). Same issue.
    - I checked these devices with different laptops (tried 3 different models) : I have NO PROBLEM.
    - The USB devices I use do not need external power supply. I tried EDIROL UA-25 which works perfectly in any case, but not with my TOSHIBA M40.
    - I agree that some application can disturb audio management. But in that case, I would like to know which one from the standard installation is the cause, so that I can fire it. It's anyway curious to see that switching from ACPI to Standard mode fixes the issue, as all applications are still there. I would say the applications are not the issue, then.
    - All Microsoft updates have already been installed
    - I think I tried everything that could be done by closing applications, changing power management modes, system cache, ...
    - I have no other hardware device connected/installed (printer or whatever)
    - RECORD works perfectly. So if some application layer was disturbing, I would bet it would bother in Play and Record as well.
    CONCLUSION : Unless someone can prove it (and I'm ready for some testing), I still believe there's a harware/driver layer that is faulty in the Toshiba management.
    And I don't need to contact the manufacturer, as I AM one of them :)
    If you are part of the Toshiba support, let me know. Maybe we can investigate together.
    FYI : I had to create a new user ID for this forum as it did not accept the one I created this morning anymore :(
    Thanks anyway.

    HI ..
    The only way to reinstall OS X on a Mac already running v10.9 is to use OS X Recovery.
    Starrtup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys.
    From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk and reinstall OS X.
    Please read >  OS X Recovery

  • Spotlight has stopped working properly. Even when a known file is entered (with full file name) in search, it fails to find it. Any ideas?

    Spotlight has stopped working properly. Even when a known file is entered (with full file name) in search, it fails to find it. It finds some things, but is not to be depended upon. Any ideas?

    Try reindexing spotlight: Spotlight: How to re-index folders or volumes - Apple Support
    If you still have problems, open Console app, select All Messages, then search for mds in the search field. Then search for mdworker. See if there are any messages indicating it is having problems with certain files.
    You can also delete the index altogether and cause it to reindex with a command in Terminal. I have always assumed the method above will do the same, but I'm not certain. You must run this command while  logged into an admin account. Copy the whole line and paste it into Terminal.
    sudo mdutil -E /
    sudo temporarily elevates your privileges and will ask for your password. When you type it in, there won't be any response in the Terminal. Just type it and hit return.

  • SimplePass V5.1 doesn't work! True Suite engine fails to initialize properly

    I can no longer get  SimplePass V5.1 to load. I get an error message that the "TrueSuite engine failed to initialize properly."
    I have already renamed IEBHO.DLL so that it no longer loads if it ever did but that hasn't helped.  Why isn't TrueSuite engine initializing?
    HPdv6-6150 laptop running Windows 7 sp1 Home Premium. Simple Pass used to work properly and I want to use it again.

    Hi Jupiter,
    Not sure why you are using TrueSuite or SimplePass 5.1
    Can you clarify your exact / full SimplePass version?
    According to your HP Website
    Software & Driver Downloads - HP Pavilion dv6-6150us Entertainment Notebook PC
    You have the option of running:
    Driver: Validity Sensor V4.3.205.0
    Software: HP SimplePass 5.3.1.7
    NOTE:  There is a newer AuthenTec version (5.4.0.620 at writing) at the AuthenTec website, too, that will run with the Validity V4.3.205.0 Driver.  I can send details if you get to that point.
    Just so you know:
    Renaming .dll files rarely helps...
    Are you trying running an old version of the HP version of SimplePass from HP?
    Say... 5.1.0.495 ??
    That old version won't run with anything except and old Validity Driver - and the 5.1.x software is badly out of date, too.
    If you can explain a bit, it would help,
    OR
    it may be easy enough to fix just by updating what you have to what is on your HP website:
    Driver FIRST
    Software Second
    I hope this helps!

  • I have ip 3gs and ios 4.1 i want to upgrade it to download latest version of apps ,which ios will be compatible and is there any danger to update ios before i erased all settings and content and i tried to update but it failed .it is working properly

    i have ip 3gs and ios 4.1 i want to upgrade it to download latest version of apps ,which ios will be compatible and is there any danger to update ios before i erased all settings and content and i tried to update but it failed .it is working properly but i want to update from itunes.iwill do back up but is there any other thing i will face after updating like it will jut show apple loge and will not work. please answer quickly

    An iPhone 3GS is too old to update to the very latest iOS and you will never be able to use apps that are compatible.  The phone is just too old now in technology terms and the app makers have all moved on, so it's time to get a new phone. 
    Ideally, perhaps get an iPhone 4s or if you can afford it, an iPhone 5s or 5c which are the newest models.

  • My FaceTime isn't working properly. Every call I make a black dot appears on the camera in the middle (fixed onto the screen, and is not dirt), and the calls always fail. It would ring 6 times and then say call failed. How can I fix this?

    My FaceTime isn't working properly. Every call I make a black dot appears on the camera in the middle (fixed onto the screen, and is not dirt), and the calls always fail. It would ring 6 times and then say call failed. How can I fix this?

    If FaceTime ever worked properly for you, restarting your modem (and separate router/wireless if you have such) may help.  If the problem continues, try connecting at a different location to see if the problem is within your wi-fi.
    The black dot problem may mean you need to reset your iPod.  If that does not help, it may need service by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

  • During Palm reinstallation, when reboots get errors, "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142)" and "DeviceMonitor MFC Application has stopped working."

    I'm trying to reinstall the Palm software because synchronization has been failing for the past two months.  It get to the point of synchronizing the calendar and fails with the message that there are too many events.  Hence, nothing in the process after that synchronizes.  I've tried reinstalling the Palm s/w to no avail.  Now I'm trying to uninstall and reinstall the Palm s/w only to be greeted with another error message when the system restarts (as part of the installation process).  The error is, "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142).  Click OK to terminate the application."  When I choose OK, I get the error, "DeviceMonitor MFC Application has stopped working."  Windows does not notify me of a solution.  Any ideas/solutions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

  • Current update failed to install properly. Downloaded current version and now I have the error message regarding MSVCR80.dll Itunes worked well to before the update. How can I correct this error?

    An update was downloaded and failed to install properly. When I tried to use the old Itunes, I get the message "The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer". I then received the message "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes"I tried reinstalling with the same error message. I then uninstalled the old version, downloaded the new version and still received the same message. How do I solve this problem?

    Followed mspanner's instructions and was able to correct the problem. Thanks for the help.

  • T510 dual monitors no longer working properly

    I have a T510 running Win7 64-bit.  For at least 3 years, I have had the same dual monitor setup (2 DoubleSight DS-1900S) running off my minidock with the laptop closed.  The rgith monitor is the primary, running off the DVI port, while the left uses the analog port.  I was away for a week at Scout camp, powered on the system once while I was there, and when I came back to the office, my monitor setup started failing. 
    Specifically, the right screen is active but it no longer displays the signal being sent to it.  When I powercycle the screen, I can see the display for about a quarter of a second, then it goes blank.  When the problem first started, I could cycle it about 20 times and eventually it would stay on, until I left the unit overnight and it went to sleep, at which point the probelm started again.
    Sounds like a wonky monitor?  I have a backup set of monitors that I swapped in, and had the same exact problem, so that appears to rule out a mechanical defect.  More fun facts: I can only use the laptop screen as a standalone display.  I cannot get the multidisplay control panel to open, even though my left screen is powered up.  However, one of my programs that normally launches to my right (main) screen will still launch, but not to my laptop screen.  It really wants to live on my right screen, even when that screen is not powered on (I can close the program by accessing the icon bar at the bottom of my laptop screen).
    As you might surmise, this is an extremely frustrating situation.  I have gone on many trips with this laptop, and each time I returned, I either plugged it into the minidock with no issues, or I had to readjust my power settings briefly to get it to work as per usual.  This time, I have no clue what went wrong.  Suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have not changed any software or drivers (knowingly), and I had already checked the cables to make sure they were all tight, so off I went to ransack the house to dig out the spare cables.  DVI cable? no change.  Power cable? no change.  Converter cable - OMG!!!!  IT WORKS!!!!
    Thank you SO much!  I could have sworn this was a software issue, never considered a bad cable or power unit.
    Both monitors are working properly, left-to-right scroll is working properly.  Now all I need is to figure out how to get all my icons/shortcuts back onto the right screen...

  • Graphire 4 no longer working properly(SOLVED)

    Hi. I had my tablet (Wacom Graphire 4) working perfectly shortly after I joined these forums.

    The recent xorg 7.3 update requires to update the driver.
    Xorg-server 1.4, however, is not yet properly supported by linuxwacom.
    While the latest dev version mostly works, there are a number of problems:
    - xsetwacom/wacomcpl don't  recognize the tablet
    - several people have reported problems with brushes in gimp being offset from the stylus position
    - there is a bug where  left or up movement events are ignored by X
    In those cases, downgrading X is the only solution.
