Forwarding email to .mac problems, some emails come through, not others

i have a forward set up through my hosting to send emails from my 'old' email address to my .mac account. some emails come through, but in tests through mail.app, some do not. the forwarded email accounts seem to get to me 30 minutes after i send them, or not at all.
any ideas? i thought it could be a spam filtering thing, or that apple is blocking something? but it just seems inconsistent, as i've received a few emails, but others i sent from the same accounts are not showing up.
thanks for any tips.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

Turn off 2 step authentication on your gmail account in a browser. It should work fine afterwards.

Sorry but we need details to help
What version of the OS do you have? What has changed since iPhtoo worked?
What exactly is the problem - you say "it was not responding" - You downloaded a new version (what version)" -you can't find yoru photos" none of which is helpful
look in your applications folder - is there an Iphoto application there? If so get info and report the version
Look in the picures folder - is there an iPhoto library there? If so exactly (including exact error messages) happens if you double click on it?
what else can you tell us that might help us assist you?

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

HT4864 Emails from .mac or .me emails being bounced by Cisco Ironports

Is anyone else having problems with their .mac or .me email being bounced by Cisco Ironports? Mine recently began bouncing when sending email to my wife at work. She investigated it with their IT team and got the following response.
We did some research and with the system administrators assistance we've figured out what is causing this. Seems that a lot of @mac.com accounts have been compromised lately and have earned themselves a bad reputation with our spam blocking service, Cisco IronPorts. What this means is that it's not any settings on either side, nor anything we control but it is in Apple's court to remedy the issue with their e-mail servers to get a proper reputation again. This is causing e-mails to be blocked from @mac.com, @me.com and @icloud.com accounts worldwide.

I have also been having this issue for the last several weeks. Apple seriously needs to adjust whatever is causing outbound emails to get flagged. Apple also has the ability to work on their end to remove accounts that cause our email accounts to be lumped in with those causing the bad reputation. They also have the ability to work with upper level people at the companies where the rejection as spam is occuring, to help create specific algorithms to work around this for those not at fault. This has caused major disruptions in my business and is strangly unpredictable. Sometimes I get rejected, and sometimes it goes through to the same address. It doesn't make any sense to me but then again, I'm not a programmer. APPLE, PLEASE FIX THIS!

Apple Email inserts word after some email addresses

I know that when I type in a contact's email address or someone who has previously sent an email to me that Apple Email will fill in the recipient's address and sometimes replace their email address in the window with a person's name. However when I try to send an email to one of my alterantive email addresses it inserts (tmobile) in parentheses after the email address. And when I try to send an email to myself from another computer using the email address in question it comes through listed as From: tmobile. When you click on "tmobile" it shows the actual email address where the message came from.
Now when I send an email from this account to a different account from my computer it shows up at the other account with the "tmobile" listing.
Basically any time I send or receive an email from my computer using this account it shows up as "tmobile". When I use this email account from my other computer it does show up as "tmobile".
I do have a TMobile cell phone but I've never used it with that email address nor does tmobile have that email address linked with my tmobile account.
I tried to delete the email account from Apple Mail and then add it back again but the same thing happens.
Sorry to be so long-winded and sorry to sound convuluted. I'm just baffled at what's going on. It just started a few days ago.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

I think I just answered my own question. I went to an email with the baffling issue and selected the address and then selected "remove from previous recipients list. It appears to have worked. D'oh.

Mac app store problem: some applications that are not installed are seen as installed

After configuring the new imac, I open the mac app store, and although I have not installed any application of previously purchased, I see them as installed. I can not download them again.
I tried to delete one from the old imac, but nothing changes.
Tips?

Andrea, it is still difficoult for me to understand.
In your first post you wrote "After configuring the new iMac", later you write about a backup disc, an old Mac etc...
Configuring the new iMac: I imagine you got it with an OS installed and you imported your stuff from the old Mac with Setup Assistan (Assistente Installazione) or Migration Assistant or from a Time Machine backup. The difference between Setup and Migration assitant is explained here https://discussions.apple.com/message/19130045#19130045
Or did you simply copied your Apps and data from one mac to the other ?
Sorry if this question may be seen stupid or offending: I only try to understand.
At the end of the Migration you should have disconnected the external disc (or the other Mac in Target mode). Why then you opened the AppStore ? I imagine to download again some Apps which were not transfered by the Migration process. But since you write you opened the AppStore AFTER the configuring I assume you did it from the new iMac booted from its own disc with other drives disconnected. Or do you have a copy of the old system on the same disc ?
About the question of "open with" you write that sometimes the files ask to be opened with Apps in the other disc instead with the same App on the boot disc. You have to disconnect the external discs and again use the Open with command but select "Other", find the correct App and chack the box "Open always with this App" (Apri sempre con questa applicazione".
If you have some Apps not yet migrated from the old system to the new one I do not understand why, because Migration assistant should transfer all Apps (Apple and third party). Should it be possible to do a second Migration ?

Problem viewing streaming video in some wifi networks, but not others

When I am at work (university), I can not view YouTube videos or video streaming from news sites such as cnn mobile on my ipod touch 2g.
<m.cnn.com/videos.jsp?ckey-cnn)06#__1_>
When I called Apple support, they had me reset-restore. I still had the problem. I went to the Apple store Genius bar and the problem no longer existed, the videaos downloaded and played from both sites!
But at my diner and at work, I get the message, "This movie could not be played" in a popup box with an OK button. The same message appears if I use the YouTube application. I click on any video, and the same popup appears. In Cnn the popup is preceded by a shaded capital Q that looks like the blue Quicktime Q; in Youtube the pupup is preceded by a YouTube icon in gray with the "Tube" surrounded by the rounded rectangle, their icoon...
At the Apple store the popup never appeared, and the videos downloaded and played.
I have no trouble playing movies I have downloaded from iTunes.
I did not have this problem when I initially got my iPod Touch, and I think it appeared after one of the last two system upgrades, but I am not sure.
I am curious that it the problem happens at two places, my diner and at work.
The speed of my wireless work network, as judged by the ipod app speed test is 9915 kbps download and 6971 kbps upload, so plenty fast.
The first time I noticed this issue was with the application "At Bat Lite" which also won't play video highlights at work.
I do not have WiFi at home
Any thoughts about what would cause this lack of functionality apparantly only at some networks but not others?
Oh, one more piece of data: at work a Macbook will play YouTube both on ethernet and using wifi...
Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions,
Paul

It seems I have two networks available at work, one is behind our firewall, and I login to it. This is the network that I can't view streaming video. There is also a "Guest" network that I don't need to login to. This one works with the YouTube and the news site videos.
Thus, I conclude there is a setting that WiFi network administrators can invoke that specifically can block streaming video on some protocols (whatever the ipod touch uses) and not others (whatever the Macbook uses). But the same router hardware supplying the Guest network does not block these protocols. Presumably this has to do with security on one side of the firewall(?)
Anyway, apparently outside of the WiFi controls available in the ipod touch settings.
Weird...

Audio Problem: Skype audio comes through external ...

I recently upgraded my computer to Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 and Skype to Version 7.8.
I used to use Skype with my Logitech H800 headset with no problems. However after the upgrade, the speaker audio is now forced through the external speakers instead of the headset. When I make a call, I hear the connecting sound effects through my headset, but when the call connects, the person's voice is coming through my external speakers.
Here is what my settings look like (see below). As you can see, the Skype settings are configured correctly.
I also tested my OS X Sound settings in the System Preferences. They are set to "Line Out" by default because I want to hear my music through my speakers, but want to take phone calls on my headset. Changing the system settings to the Logitech Wireless Headset is a temporary fix, however it is an extra manual step that has to be repeated with each phone call and when the call ends, I have to switch it back to Line Out. This used to be automatic feature, switching to the headset for an incoming or outgoing call.
Any suggestions on how to fix this issue and get Skype to automatically put calls through my headset? I worked with a Skype technician and she couldn't figure out why it was happening.
Thanks in advance for your input.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Never mind. Shortly after posting this issue, I discovered an article which describes the problem as a bug with the latest release. See here for the article:

Why can i recieve e-mail from some allowed addresses but not others

Ihave an officejet pro 8500a and the problem i have is that not all e-mails are coming through.
I have the printer set to receive from only allowed e-mail addresses and it is some of these that are not coming through.
Any help would be gratelly appreciated

Hello thebigrigdriver,
The only way I have found around this is to set your allowed senders to everyone. I know this is a security concern for some people, but the thing to keep in mind is that the only people who have the printer's email are the ones that you give it to. Sorry for the inconvenience.

IPhoto6 likes some photo's but not others

Hi All,
I've a real problem with iPhoto and thought some of you gurus could maybe help. I've around 3500 photo's in my library. I populated my library by importing photo's from my folders on my Windows PC (networked to my Mac) and more recently directly from my camera (all done as I'm supposed to - through iPhoto). The photo's are all there, no problems opening iPhoto etc - the application is swift and neat. Now here's the problem.
I have created a number of albums and have organised my photo's (or am trying to) by album. I'm dragging the photos from the main library into the appropriate album, however, some photo's do not like being dragged and dropped at all - they eventually do (after say 5 minutes of spinning beach ball) place a copy (or reference to main original file) in the album. There may be some reason behind this but from my perspective it appears random - there's no telling which photo iPhoto will and will not like. This reduces my productivity heaps - what should be a very slick and easy task turns into a hair-pulling, eye-poppingly frustrating one.
This of course also mucks up all the other iLife applications eg iDVD - I'm using the albums to create slideshows - dragging and dropping the albums to a slideshow created in iDVD easy? Nope - will not import some photo's. Same goes for iWeb.
There should be no problems with imported photos as I kept all photo's on my old PC organised in a similar way to the Mac does anyway ie by month and then by original and by edited.
I've also tried cleaning thumbnails and entire library (marginal performance achieved) and running onyx to clean permissions etc. I've taken out RAW files and movies taken on camera's to see if that would work...nope. Running out of ideas now...

do you know if it is possible to open multiple instances/windows of iPhoto
As Terence stated, no. The best you can do is to use iPLM or iPhoto Buddy to quickly jump between libraries. Or use iTLM to merge the one library into the other and keep them all in one. In any case take a look at the tip at the end of my signature. It may help protect you against damaged database files which has been an all to common problem here.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
