Do I need a email server? Please help
Hi,
currently my school project needs to create a email system that send reminder and notice to users. However, we are unable to tap the school email server, I am using my own pop3 account (my ISP). I dun think it is a good way. Do i need an email server to make the system more appropiate? If yes, any email server to recommend?? Please guide..thanks
you don't need an email server to send mail. Just write a small "main" class that opens a socket to whatever domain you're sending to (ex: hotmail.com) on port 25. Then just use all the SMTP commands:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0821.txt
Basically, you'll have a conversation with their server, something like this:
//FOR READING WHAT THE SERVER SAYS
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(sock.getInputStream()));
//SO YOU CAN RESPOND
PrintStream out = new PrintStream(sock.getOutputStream() );
//STORE THEIR RESPONSES
String strResponse;
//SEND IT CONNECTION OK, YOU REACHED...
out.println("220 mail.myserver.com SMTP Server (Billy Bob's Personal Server v5.0) ready");
out.flush();
strResponse = in.readLine();
if (strResponse.equals("EHLO") || strResponse.equals("HELO"))
out.println("250 mail.myserver.com");
out.flush();
etc...Now, it won't actually be "EHLO" or "HELO", it'll probably be that plus their name or something. So maybe: "EHLO mail.yahoo.com". Anyways, don't worry about all that. You can get that info at the link I put above. it'll do the assignment, and be more fun!

I forget answer to my qustion with rescue email adrees please help me and send the answer to my main mail. Thank you very much
We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support.
If you don't have access to your rescue email account, or you don't have one on your iTunes account, then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add/change a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -
Apple asking me security questions that ive never set up and i can't purchase anything, and ive tried resetting them but i can't remember the password for my rescue email address, please help?
You need to either reset the rescue email address's password(check the site's help for instructions) or ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

Won't let me change my Apple ID email address please help
Won't let me change my Apple ID email address please help I have signed out of iCloud and iTunes. I really need to change the email address as the 1 that is currently
What happens when you try to change the email address ? You should be able to edit your primary email address (as long as it's not an @icloud.com, @me.com or @mac.com address) by logging into the account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or by logging into on http://appleid.apple.com

I just bought a new iPhone and accidentally backed it up with my old iPhone backup, I do not want this. I lost everything on my new phone and I need it back. PLEASE HELP! This includes pictures and texts, etc.
So just to be clear, when you say "just bought" how long ago was that? Is it on this new iPhone that you had pictures, texts, etc that you want? Were you backing up to iCloud or onto iTunes?
This may not help for everything but if you go to iCloud.com and log in, are you able to find your pictures there? -
Hi can anyone help me. I have a apple macbook laptop OSX 10.5.8 . When i push print, it shows my printer but says cannot communicate with printer. (epson stylus nx125). Do I need new drivers? Please help . regards Cindy
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're users here and do not speak for "Apple Inc."
Some basic printer troubleshooting steps before worrying about a printer driver:
1. Have you tried turning the printer off and back on?
2A. Is the printer attached with a cable?
If yes, have you tried unplugging and re-plugging both ends of the printer cable?
If that does not help, can you test the printer with another cable?
2B. If your printer is not connected to the computer with a cable, have you tried restarting your printer (assuming wireless connection)?
Have you tried restarting your wireless router?
3. Have you tried restarting your MacBook? (Be sure to save your work first.)
4. Does the printer have ink? (Doesn't usually generate a 'communications error' though)
5. Have you updated OS X or the program you're trying to print from recently? -
I have QuickTime Player 7.6.8, I cannot update or remove it b/c I am missing QuickTime.msi file. It is gone and I need it back. Please help.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.) -

I installed both 10.1.4 and 11.0.08 updates this week and now I can't use the Digital "Sign" document feature. It's been completely removed. Need it back. Please help.. Can't sign or add text to any pdf document. Even when security properties allow it.
I would remove Reader and repair or reinstall Acrobat.
Having different major versions can cause some users issues. Reader is not necessary if one has Acrobat installed. Even though Adobe has improved the capability of having both Reader and Acrobat with the same major version level there are still user configurations that have problems with this setup. -
