Freezing - emails in outlook, and other whinges

I am having the continuing problem of only being able to send/receive one email, attachments or not, when in outlook, before everything freezes, and I then have to use task manager to exit. I have routed my emails through gmail but miss outlook. I have an XP desktop, Word 2000, OUtlook 2007, the BT infiinity hub and live close to an exchange. I have been unable to set up an IMAP account for reasons which I have gone into before but were unresolved (the outgoing server information is only given as "POP3" although I am given an IMAP incoming server address when checking for the set up details in Yahoo; I wont use Yahoo webmail due to the incessant advertising, which a BT support advisor told me has to stay as Yahoo pay them "millions of pounds" for the privilege). I did not have this problem with TalkTalk and the phone calls were cheaper - I went with BT as I wanted the faster broadband speeds but to be honest, my downloaded tv and radio programmes still buffer all the time. I dont have the time or energy to ring support any more and anyway, you always get a different answer depending on who you speak to. Im actually paying a lot more for a service that only really benefits me with regard to downloading a certain programme with a faster speed. If TalkTalk had offered better service when I wanted to upgradae my speeds, (to be honest, their customer service at that stage was shocking) I would have stayed where I was.

Just picking one bit out of all that. If the adverts really are the only reason you don't want to use BT Yahoo! webmail, a Google search for "ie ad block" will find you a solution assuming you're using Internet Explorer.

Hi tinam74565130,
That does sound frustrating! It sounds as though the filename associations have become confused on your computer. You should be able to reset that easily. Here are some instructions:

How do I get my Blackberry to Sync with Outlook and other apps on Mavericks?

With the removal of iSync, how do I get my Blackberry to sync with Microsoft Outlook 2011, and the other applications on Mac?

In most cases you would never need to do so in 2014.
It is a very old way of thinking that mobile devices should "sync" with a local computer any more.
All modern mobile devices should be communicating directly with a server to get email, calendar, contacts, and any other data. So, your desktop computers should get email, calendar, and contact information directly from the server, your laptops should get dta from the server, and any tablets, phones, or blackberrys should be getting data directly from the server just the same.

Pop Email In Outlook and iPhone

My manager switched from an AT&T iPhone to a Verizon iPhone (company switched carriers). It used to be when he checked his POP3 in Outlook, it would still download to his phone but it would show as read. If he hadn't yet read the email in Outlook, it would show as new/unread on the iPhone. I'd like to get his set back to that for him. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Brian

OK, thanks for the info.
I would have just thought in terms of logic that an email message is simply a file and that once it is downlodaed to one device, it could be "copied" (synced) with any other device, just as i would back up my data to a hard drive for instance. I don't really care about the server at this stage, I just want to able to access my eamil on the go, but use my PC as my main interface.
Anyway, I'll pursue the gmail route - thanks.

Duplicate email in outlook and not receiving all e...

I have looked at the other posts about duplicate emails but none seem to answer my problem
Recently I have started getting duplicate emails in my Outlook inbox, even if I have read them in Outlook. I have also noticed I am not receiving all emails, including the one from BTcommunity asking for verification of email to acces this forum. I only use BY Yahoo on line to check and delete spam and do not read email online at BTYahoo.
I have not, as far as I am aware, changed any of the settings in Outlook or on BTYahoo.
The Bt help screen swere less than helpful as my BTyahoo pages do not seem to have the options they suggest.
Another concern is the repeated downloading to outlook of the same emails will increase my braodband usage.
Solved!

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
Although receiving emails in Outlook will increase the usage, emails are generally very small - unless they all contain large attachments.
Duplicate emails received in your case as described is generally down to an email fetch process from Outlook (or any mail client program) failing to complete the download, and hence an index into the received emails is not updated. When checking for emails again, it gets the same emails it had before until it properly finishes the fetch.
There are a few reasons this can occur including communications failure, but also stuck emails can cause it to happen, possibly Outlook checking for emails at the exact same moment you are say deleting spam via webmail at BTYahoo.
I assume you've checked the online spam folder in case various emails are ending up there, as opposed to just deleting the spam from the online Inbox.

Why can't i put an out of office on my iphone email? Blackberry and other android phones will allow this feature.

I just purchased my iPhone, one thing I don't like is that with my Blackberry it allowed me to put an Out of Office reply to my emails. I thought the iPhone was a leader!!! Blackberry and other Android phones can do it.

Why can't you? Simple..Apple doesn't include that feature.
Download and use iMExchange instead.

Syncing some items (Contacts, Calendar) on Outlook and others (Tasks, Memos) on Palm Desktop

On my old Palm phone, I was able to sync my Calendar and Contacts with Outlook and my Memos and Tasks with the Palm Desktop. I just got a new Palm Treo 755p, and I would like to do the same thing. I don't want my Outlook Tasks and Memos/Notes to be syncronized, only my Calendar and Contacts. I want my device Tasks and Memos to go to the Palm desktop. Is this possible?
During the Installation, it only asks for overall sync options - it does not break out each item (Contacts, Tasks, etc.) like it did for my old Palm.
Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
It should ask you somewhere through the installation what would you like to sync and give you the checklist of conduits. If it's not doing that on your installation disk, try downloading and installing the Palm Desktop Software from Palm's website, http://www.palm.com/us/support/palmdesktop.html
Hope this helps!

Photos sent from my iphone 4s to email addy's and other phones are not being recieived.

I've tried sending them as different sizes and to various email addy's and phones - they never get received.

It's called iMessage, new in iOS 5.0...these messages are going as iMessages, and as designed, they appear on all of your iOS devices(your Apple ID on your daughter's phone). Either turn iMessage off on your daughter's phone or get her her own Apple ID & wipe her phone & then setup it up again using her own Apple ID. Your daughter having her own Apple ID is recommended if you want to fully take advantage of iCloud, FaceTime, iMessage, etc. She can still use your iTunes account.

Emails on outlook and phone

Hi guys,
When i delete an email from the web (outlook), it doesnt delete it from my mobile phone emails. The only way around this, i have found is if i unselect emails in my settings and then reselect it. But this shouldnt be the case.
Can someone help me with this? Does my email settings need to be refreshed by someone from Microsoft?
Thanks in advance

Works fine for me, I delete a mail in outlook.com and when the phone syncs the mail is gone there too.

POP3 Email with Outlook and iPhone email at the same time??

I have my iPhone set up to receive my Comcast email.
I would like to use Microsoft Outlook to also get my Comcast email.
I know how to set up Microsoft Outlook to get my Comcast email - my problem is this:
When I have Microsoft Outlook opened on my PC, I no longer get the emails sent to my iPhone. The only way to get the emails to show up on my iPhone is to have Outlook closed on my PC.
Anyone know how to have Microsoft Outlook always opened on my PC and receive the emails on both my iPhone and in Microsoft Outlook?
Thanks

It sounds like Outlook is set to remove messages from the server when retrieving email.
Try clicking on File-->Account Settings-->Select your account and click change-->click More Settings-->click the Advanced Tab and check the box to leave a copy of the emails on the server.
You can then also choose to have the emails removed from the server after x number of days or when the email is deleted from the Deleted Items box

Can I import my emails from Outlook and Outlook express backup to Mail

Hi
I have saved a lot of my emails from when I was using PC, using Outlook. I have since just been using webmail.
I now want to import it into Mail, as I have an imac that I use all the time. Can this be done? If so how, and how easy is it?
Also is there a free way to do it, seen a few progs but have to pay for them.
cheers

Ah i see, bit of a long winded way but if this is the only way then I'll have to.
I would have thought you ould go from Outlook/Outlook express to Apple mail straight away though?
Anyone else please? surely this must have been done when people became Apple Mac users? from PC users?
cheers

Macbook Pro Freezes with Screen Distortion and other problems...

So I've had my 13' Macbook Pro for about 9 months and I am encountering problems with it. My Macbook would sometimes freeze at random and the screen would distort as well, also, the screen would react whenever I would move the laptop around by either reverting back to a normal screen (still frozen) or more distortion which leads me to believe that it might have something to do with the hardware. But all this is temporarily solved when I force shut off my laptop (hold the power button for 3 seconds) and restart it. It can start up again with no problem, but this happens again, more early than usual and becomes more consatnt. However this is lessened whenever I don't use my laptop for an extended amount of time, but it does happens again whenever I do use it for some time.
Another problem I've been encountering is that, at times after I force shut off the laptop, my computer would not turn back on. Instead, the laptop beeps 3 times, pause, then beep 3 times again. I have looked into this and discovered that this means that I have "No Good Banks"..........I have no idea what this means but I guess it means that I might have faulty RAM.
What I ask is that if anyone has had similar problems and if they know what to do or what exactly what the problem is so that I might be able to do something about it.
Info about Macbook:
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 4GB 1600 Mhz DDR3

Bump. Anyone have any ideas on this?
I "shut it off" last night, but when I turned it on again tomorrow, it turned out it didn't quite shut down?
It booted to the grey log-in screen, basically.
I've also come to the realisation that my charger isn't registered (the LED isn't orange/green like it usually is), and I can't get a "battery status" (I'm sure it has another name, I just don't know what it is) when I click on the little button on the left hand side of the laptop. Usually, it would show green dots/LEDS to tell me how far along it's charged, but now I get nothing.
I get the distinct feeling something's up with my battery, and maybe my RAM (because of the repeated triple beep after shutting down last night).

Email both Yahoo and others problem on iphone

i have had to recreate my accounts (2) several times, they work, i get/send email and then boom, overnight, it stops working. i tried to reset today and can not get either to work. when I open them it simply says "checking for mail" and the circle thing goes round and round with no luck.
this is both in wireless areas and/or elsewhere,
any thoughts or suggestions, it has happened 3 times already and this time recreating the accounts do not help, frustrating.

I have had similar problems. Frequently my email retrieval goes into an endless spin of "checking for mail." I can correct it by resetting, but, this is becoming a real nuisance. I would be interested if there is some other procedure or setting that might correct it.
