Email account and Internet service not working after migration onto a new (upgraded 3rd party) 2012 MBP. Hardware or software issue.

I just purchased a refurb Mac Book Pro from the Apple on-line store. When I received the machine (serial number)  I purchased 3rd party (OWC) parts. All of these were installed by the authorized, local Apple repair store I have had excellant results with past issues with my 2006 MBP. The parts installed are: 16 meg ram, 240 SSD and a 1 T installed replacing the optical drive.
Feeling ready now, I had the Apple store do the migration from my 2006 MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8) over to the 2012.
When trying to get the new machine into the production flow, I cannot get email to work. It will launch but I cannot access accounts.
During the One to One, then moved over to the Genius Bar appointment, they reentered the account(s) data. Nothing.
Also at this time they noticed that the Internet connection was not working.
A new internet account was set up and it worked. They (Genius) launched email and the Internet connection crashed. This was repeated about 5 times.
The computer was left with Apple to reinstall the OS (10.8) - their best suggestion as a fix and I have now had a call to say that the install did not correct the problem. Now they are questioning the install of the 3rd party parts as the possible problem.
I'm to go back into the Apple store to discuss the next steps.
I would really, really appreciate anyones thoughts / suggestions on this problem. Is it software or hardware? Should I re-install the original ram and 500 m hard drive to start over with the migration? I'll be honest here and state - I'm not a technician in computers or this side of technology. That is why I have reliable parties do the install and trouble shoot. Not a comfortable feeling being at their mercy.
Advanced thanks to all who believe they have answers.

Back from the Apple store with my 2012 MacBook Pro.
After one re-install of the OS - no better - a clean install was performed - purging all of the data that they had migrated over from my 2006 MBP last week.
The belief is, that the migrated data from my 2006 MBP was too great of a leap for the new 10.8. My (a lot) software was too dated and there in was a "blip" of some sort in some / one of the programs.
So - all of the OWC parts and pieces that I had installed are not the issue - as they all show up on the About this Mac - and other things are functional. Yeah.
I now have my 2012 back (with upgrades) in the original form (OS and programs) and I will start a one by one migration of programs that I do need and use. Being cautious not to make one large transfer.... weeding out programs that will no longer be needed or will work on the OS 10.8. I will manually set up the email accounts one by one.
Fingers crossed.

  • Keyboard and Touch-Pad Not Working After Having to Install New Hard Drive

    I had to install a new hard drive in my HP Pavillion DV9700t that has Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  After going through the recovery process with backup disk the built in keyboard and touch-pad do not work.  During the installation, an error message came up saying something along the lines of "the drivers are not supported by this verison of windows because they are unsigned."  The drivers that had that error were "hpqkbfiltr keyboard filter driver," "HP remote control HID Device," and "hpqkdfilter driver."  I tried to update the drivers for the keyboard from the hp website, but the keyboard and touch-pad still do not work.
    My question is, where do I find the digitally signed drivers for the keyboard and touch-pad that Vista won't flag and disable?
    Help please!

    Sparkles,
    Thanks for the suggestions.
    When dealing with MS Fix It, I was choosing run.  Upon further investigation on that site, there really isn't a scan that applies to my issue anyways I tried the .NET Framework repair tool, and that seemed to work.  It told me to try re-running what I was having issues with, so I tried running the Windows PowerShell again, but again was faced with the following message "windows update standalone installer encountered an error: 0xc8000247." I went back to the .NET screen and hit "Next" because it didn't work, and that responded by saying they were going to submit logs to Microsoft.  I won't hold my breath on that one.
    I'm to the point where I honestly don't care anymore.  I have no idea what to do, because doing a clean install with the discs HP sent me isn't going to help because they are just recovery discs, and not an actual Windows disk.  This is the second hard drive I have had to put into my laptop and use those recovery disks on in the last 3-years.  The built-in keyboard hasn't worked during that time frame on either hard drive.  I don't think the recovery disks I was sent install properly.  Not sure where to go from here.  I spent way too much money on this laptop years ago having it custom built to handle all of my drafting programs, so I don't want to just kick it to the curb.  I was looking into the possibility of just replacing it, but I cannot stand the Windows 8 interface.
    I guess I should have fixed the issue with the keyboard on this hard drive before loading all of my programs.  Between the recovery disk install, formatting of the hard drive, and installing all of my programs it took well over 12 hours.  Not really looking forward ot that again Then there's shockwave and flash and all of the other goodies that my recovery disks won't restore anyways.
    Sorry if this seems like a negative post, but I'm just tired of trying to no avail.  Maybe I should just take it somewhere to get it looked at, but I can't see them being successful if the recovery disks won't help anyways.
    Thanks for you help,

    My iMessage and facetime is not working after updating to ios 7...
    Any answers on how to fix it?  I've tried to restart, restore connected to itunes, but nothing.

    ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
    Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS.  Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages.  If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)).  Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation.  If that does not fix things read the following articles:

    The sound in my IPad is not working after I downloaded the new iOS 7. I tried to reset the IPad to no avail. Could anyone be so kind to help me?

    I"m going to make the presumption that you've checked the volume and that you don't have it muted. One thing some have suggested is to go into the settings and reset all settings.
    It is kind of a drag because you wil have to retweak everything but it's helped for some.

  • "Find Form" calendar is not working after migration

    Hi,
    We have migrated from Oracle 9i to 10g.we have one form ''FormA" and "find form" for that FormA.Calendar functionality is present in both FormA and "Find FormA".if we try to use calendar functionality in "Find formA",its giving error like FRM-40104 - No such block calendar,FRM-40105(unable to resolve reference to item claendar.cell1.........),FRM-41045 (cannot find item - invalid id).Actually this scenario is not working after migrating the FORMS application to 'OAS10.1.2' from 'OAS904' .
    In 'OAS904' ,The calendar item is present in the 'FormA' form, the 'calendar.show' hides the "Find FormA" and appears in the FOrmA and uses FormA's calendar item and after selecting the date,the date s applied to the "Find FormA"
    But after migration, the "Find FormA" is not hiding, so its not able to retrieve the calendar properties.Because the calendar is present in "FormA".
    Any problem with pll files like 'qmslib65','qmsolb65',qmsevh65'??
    please help me by providing suggestions.
    Thanks

    qmslib65','qmsolb65',qmsevh65Are these libraries self-written or from some third-party tool?

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.

    Hello
    I bought my wife a new MacBook Pro, in setting it up for her, I took her Time Machine external drive to migrate onto the new machine but her old MBP not only was on 10.6, it was my old machine which I was still Administrator for.
    i plugged in the external drive to start the migration process after entering her name and username from the old machine which gave me the options on transferring the old data over.
    I also unchecked the Administrative end that had my info hoping that ONLY her data, files, etc., would be the ones sent over to her new machine which I wanted her to be the ONLY Administrator for. All went like clockwork until the restart.
    Normally the screen should show the username and only need the password but both entries were blank, as in ‘Other’ sign in option available only. I entered her name and password, nothing….used her username and password, nothing. Used my old Administrator name and password, NOTHING!
    I tried defaulting to factory settings from the Restore feature but it directs me to notify Apple. I tried in Terminal to change the password, nothing. I tried to boot from MY external drive and it doesn’t recognize it. I tried to even use my external drive which actually has the Mavericks upgrade, nothing!
    Basically I can only get the startup screen which isn’t accepting the username/password or the Restore feature which doesn’t offer any options helpful!
    Please, how do I start from scratch and start over here? Or simply change the Administrator name and password so I can proceed with everything thats already on there? I wish I could even boot from another drive but no luck on anything!

    First, on the old machine, make your wife's account an admin one. Log into it and delete yours. Then, update the TM backup. Finally, use Internet recovery mode, ⌘⌥R, erase the HD, and restore the OS. One first boot, follow the steps outlined in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

  • How to set up just an email account? - it's not working

    Hi there,
    Could someone please let me know how to set up just an email account for a staff member?
    I tried "E-mail Accounts" - Add an email account - but the password verification NEVER comes through. I've tried send password recoved but does not work (ive deleted it and tried 3 different Password recovery e-mails - gmail / local and another BC one too).. nothing is working.
    So then I read the knowledge base which is out of date:
    http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/000/bc_8.html?bc-partner says to set up an email account you need to go to Site Users (which doesn't exist) to tick "enable email" - so I tried Admin users but it has no email only option..

    Hi Dandy,
    You can still switch to V2 view to find things. Something I am still doing when I do these irregular jobs, as they only happen when a site goes live and that will only be once a month for us. Twice some months.
    Although I just tried going to V2 and getting up the V3 view, but it didn't send me to the page I wanted.
    I notice that there is a new tab in V3 called Email accounts, where you can set up email accounts now. Try there.
    You will need to have the user set up first under Admin Users and User Roles first I expect.
    Also check workflows are set up properly once you have gone into Email Accounts and set up the email address.
    Or maybe just go back to V2 and do it all there. Click in top rh corner to get back to it.

  • Internet does not work after kernel upgrade...

    I have been reading all of the other threads and have tried everything possible to downgrade my kernel to 2.6.26 rather then 2.6.27.  I have found a package for kernel 2.6.26.2-1 and nvidia 173.14.12-2 but they do not mix and wont let me start x when i downgrade both of them.  Is there some way i can get past this as not having internet is frustrating
    Edit:
    I have tried using this
    echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack
    echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_dsack
    and it did not work, i have also tried downgrading dhcpcd and that didn't work so i'm assumin git is infact the kernel.
    Edit again:
    When downgrading both the kernel and nvidia with those two packages i found, my computer boots up fine up untill i get to the command line to type "startx".  The i get this error message after typing "startx" :
    Error: API mismatch: the nvidia kernel module has version 173.14.12, but thus nvidia driver component has version 177.80. Please make sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components have the same version.
    After i got this i went and reinstall kernel 2.6.27 and the latest nvidia to look at the nvidia package i had installed.  I extracted it and all the was in it was a hierarchy of folders "/lib/modules/2.6.26-ARCH/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko"  and that nvidia.ko file.  Is it possible that i'm not installing the driver jsut a kernel module?
    Once again... Edit lol:
    Also i found a package for nvidia-utils and installed it with nvidia and the kernel and i can "startx", but it freezes everytime and i have to manually restart the computer with the reset button

    I use nvidia96xx legacy drivers with no trouble, so I'm not sure I'll be of much help. I did read the announcment that nvidia no longer supports a certain card/cards, and there is a new legacy driver in the repo. Maybe you need to be using that one?
    Also, I wasn't effected with any issues with the new kernel, but I did have a small issue with dhcpcd shortly after the kernel upgrade. It kept failing when trying to connect to the Internet. It was a simple fix though. I compared my  /etc/conf.d/dhcpcd with /etc/conf.d/dhcpcd.pacnew and there was a significant difference.
    I was using the string....
    DHCPCD_ARGS="-N -t 30 -h $HOSTNAME"
    I just needed to change it to the string in dhcpcd.pacnew....
    DHCPCD_ARGS="-q -L -t 30 -h $HOSTNAME"
    Anyway, sorry if this doesn't help.

  • Office 2010 MUI in Finnish and Save and Send function not working after upgrading to Lync 2013 MUI

    Problem is as follows. Used to have Office 2010, Outlook 2010 and Lync 2010, everything was working. People used it in Finnish and seemly quite a many of them used the Talleta ja lähetä (Save and Send in Finnish) in Office products.
    After upgrading Lync to 2013 version, with Finnish language pack installed with it, the Save and send does not work in Office 2010 if it is used with Finnish as display language. When you try to use it you get a Mapi error and reason is undefined or something,
    hard to say what it is exactly in english as the error message is in finnish. On those machines if the display language is changed back to english the Save and send works as it should.
    Any ideas? 

    The problem was caused by the Language Packs for Lync 2013 or Office 2013. Without them all works.
    And if you want to just unisntall the 2013 lang packs, then you also need to repair install the office 2010 ones to make it work again.
