Get new messages (Mail application)

Is there a way to show a status or progress indication when doing a Mailbox > Get All New Mail or when pressing the "Get new messages in all accounts" toolbar button?  I have several POP accounts and there is no indication that anything is happing unless there are new emails.
I am using the latest Mountain Lion release on a Mac Pro.  Snow Leopard and also iOS 6 do show in indication that Mail is busy fetching emails.
Thanks much for your insight and help.

You have two options to view activity in Mail:
In the menu bar, click "Window" > "Activity", which will display any incoming or outging activity
If the sidebar is hidden, click the "Show" text toward the top left of the window. When the sidebar appears, there may be a small panel that looks like this at the bottom of the sidebar:
If that is not shown, click the circled button:

  • Installing cs6 on a new laptop, I get error message "Adobe application manager failed to install"

    installing cs6 on a new laptop, I get error message "Adobe application manager failed to install"
    Is this because I need to deactivate cs5 on one of the computers?
    CS5 is on 2 old computers. I used Migration Assistant to migrate the applications to the new laptop which is a 3rd computer.
    What do I need to do?

    I used Migration Assistant to migrate the applications to the new laptop which is a 3rd computer.
    Forget that part. The apps won't work. Adobe apps must be installed properly. That may well explain your issues with CS6, too. Generalyl, though, there is no need to uninstall older versions...

  • I can't get 'new message' in imail....any ideas?

    I can't get 'new message' in imail....any ideas?

    Step 1: Turn on the computer
    Step 2: Do you have an Internet connection? To test this, go to your applications and in the utilities folder double click on Network Utility. Go to the ping section and type in www.Google.com. If you can get there then you have Internet. Make sure your DNS servers are correct for the network you are on. If you are using a static IP try using DHCP and get an IP address and check then.
    Step 3:Are you at home or school? If you are at school, they might have the mail app blocked. I know that at my college, I am unable to get my mail on the Apple Mail app.
    Step 4: Are your connections configured correctly on the mail app. If you are using gmail, the settings will be automatically configured. If you have your own e-mail address you are adding for your work then you will have to consult your IT department and get the correct settings.
    Step 4: Do you have an antivirus software that is blocking any Internet connection for the app. Yes I said antivirus and mac in the same sentence. MAC GETS VIRUSES TOO! Go into the firewall configuration and unblock the mail app.

  • Adobe Air I get this message: The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged....

    Every time I try to install new product through adobe air I get this message: The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author. Kiran Kumar: May I have the product name and version you are referring to? I've looked over the online suggested repair which indicates to search for and delete Adobe Muse but when go looking for it, it doesn't seem to exist. How can I get this resolved?

    Finally found a fix on my own....Wasted like 3 hours today. Hope this helps for anyone struggling with that stupid error message:

  • I get the message "The application "Finder" cannot be launched. -600  Read

    For the last couple of days my G5 was not shutting down, so had to hold in front power button, manual sleep sometimes refused to wake and applications failed to quit. and yesterday i got the following error.
    I get the message "The application "Finder" cannot be launched. -600
    A reboot got things working for a bit, but on opening 'TextEdit' a document that had locked up before the reboot was displayed, on trying to save the file 'TextEdit' locked up again, trying to do a 'Preview' 'Grab' of the screen worked but then locked up 'Preview'.
    So i booted into 'Safe Boot' logged in, did a virus scan using ClamXav just for piece of mind.
    I opened 'TextEdit' and the same document opened as before yet i still could not save it. So i rebooted.
    After reboot i opened 'TextEdit' and again the previous document appeared and this time i was able to save it. And so far no apps have failed to open or quit.
    My question is, i know prior to booting into 'Safe Boot' the system fixes somethings, what does it 'fix'?
    I did run the ASD (not the AHT) disk and all was ok, so thought it should be a software issue, on running TechTool Pro4 i did notice 'Finder' errors which i set to fix (just opened TechTool Pro4 and it has locked up but did 'Force Quit' unlike 'TextEdit' which has just failed to even 'Force Quit')
    On looking in on the 'Console Messages' i have seen as below:

    I have an image on a firewire caddy (which has 10.5.8 bootable on it) so i can easily erase the boot drive and image back but i want to understand what is actually happening.
    Is it worth running AppleJack 1.5 or similar?
    You advice is appreciated.

    Hi there,
    My question is, i know prior to booting into 'Safe Boot' the system fixes somethings, what does it 'fix'?
    In Tiger/10.4.x it disables Startup/Login Items, clears Font Caches, tries to repair the HD. loads Safe Drives, disables Airport & Quartz.
    In Leo/10.5 it does more, but doesn't disable Airport, which now has a Sfe Driver I presume.
    I suspect From the Console post that perhaps SAfe Boot repaired the HD, but of course that doesn't take care of any corruption done while it was muxed.
    Run Disk Utility & Verify the HD, it at least will tell us something.
    Is it worth running AppleJack 1.5 or similar?
    Assuredly, AppleJack is great & won't hurt, & will eliminate a lot of questions if not the problem.

  • TB 27.0.1 (W7) will not "get new messages for all accounts"

    I installed W7 with IE11and downloaded the latest TB (27.0.1) I have added five email accounts (more to be added) and none of them show up in the left pane - only global Inbox and two folders I created. I can get new messages manually one account at a time, but "get new messages for all accounts" (or Shift F5) does nothing. Most of this happed after MS installed well over 100 updates to my W7, but some of my accounts never did show up in the left pane even before the W7 updates. I have reinstalled TB - nothing changes.

    Matt, I thank you for your kind and gracious response (Ok I will say this only once....). Be assured that I would never think of asking your advice again.
    The crux of the matter has been resolved by checking the “Include this server when getting new mail” box in each account’s “Advanced” box under “Server Settings.” Now every time TB checks for new mail (including on startup), the process is displayed in the lower left portion of the window. I wish this had been explained to me more clearly early on.
    Having all accounts in the left pane has become unimportant now that I can see the mail being checked on startup, periodically, and on Shift F5.
    I consider this thread closed.

  • I keep getting error message saying application did not initialize and I can't get on the internet with mozilla at all

    when I click to open the internet through Mozilla Firefox, I get this message; "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). Click on OK to terminate the application."
    When I do this, I have to click on it twice before the box goes away. I still can't access the internet through Mozilla.

    Well, if they are private range IPs it does not make any difference. Everybody use them.
    Anyway hide any personal information.

  • After downloading 4.0 I get this message: JavaScript application can't create mcafee plug-in object: TypeError: components.classes[cid] is undefined

    I finished downloading Firefox 4.o to my Mac OS.X.
    When I try to open a website I get the message:
    [JavaScript Application] can't create mcafee plug-in object: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined
    If I click the OK button, the site opens, but without the McAfee alert at the bottom of the window.
    I had just downloaded 3.6.16, and got box suggesting download version 4.0 for better security, but that seems to be where the problem is!

    That indicates that an add-on you are using is not compatible, considering the other errors it is possibly the McAfee add-on. To confirm what add-on is causing this use the procedure in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

    iPhone 4s.used to get swoosh sound every time I got an email.  Now I don't and I have to open email for it to connect and get new messages.  What do I do?

    Once you purchase or download an app it will always be associated with the Apple ID used to download it. When that app requires and update you must use the Apple ID and password used to download it in the first place. The only way around this is to delete the apps the require the old Apple ID and download or purchase them again with the new Apple ID.

    If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
    Step 1
    When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
    Step 2
    Check that the keychain is working.
    Step 3
    Check that the default keychain is unlocked.
