Email notification but can't find new email?

I've noticed this every so often where I'm working on my iMac & hear the email "ding" notification & when I check to see what it is, there isn't any mail. I thought it was my spam filter but when I check deleted or the spam folder there aren't any new emails that pop up there either.
I run a PC as well with Outlook Express & when this happens I'll go over to the PC & the new email has popped up their with no problem. I've checked my "rules" for this most recent email & I don't see the problem there either.
I know this is a simple oversight on my part. Does anyone see where my mistake may be?

I have noticed this problem myself and i found that this was the problem with my mail account. If you are using something like Gmail sometimes the mail can be stopped on the Gmail server and put into the spam on googles server. I found that logging on your email web page and check in the folders you may find the missing emails. Why this changes the Apple mail icon i dont know, but it is a slight bug.

I can open all emails ok but can't find or open attachments.

The attachment bar at the bottom of incoming emails has no ''paperclip'' to select and open attached documents

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
* Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click if you want to make that permanent
See [[Menu bar is missing]]
Make sure that all the toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

I think the suggestion by JimHdk is fair simple. Most Internet services providing email offer a way to access email via a browser like Safari instead of using the Mail app. You start Safari, got to the webmail webpage, enter a user name and password and are provided with a list of waiting emails. You can read emails, reply to emails, delete emails and create new emails on those sites. This is a very common way for people who travel a lot and who encounter your problem, to access their emails.
If you don't know the website for your webmail contact your provider.

Getting Call Failed but can send text messages

This is the first problem I have had with him IPhone 3g and have no idea what to do. I cannot send or receive calls but can tend text messages. I have plenty of credit on my phone and the battery is charged. I have turned off the phone and on again but nothing seems to help. Would be most grateful for any suggestions - I am a complete techno noob so would be grateful if you could keep it simple for me

Have you tried to test in other locations? Maye you'r just on the edge of the carriers network.
Make sure you have the available iOS updates and Carrier Settings.
If that doesn't do it, you can try Resetting Network Settings from Settings > General > Reset. You can also try restoring the iPhone.

Can't find messages in Mail

Our company uses GMail as a mail service provider. This is a professional account, so it's under our own domain. I use Mail to download these messages to my MacAir.
I consistantly can't find messages after they have been downloaded by Mail. Oddly, Mail does find information for them and includes hits in the find box at the top of the window.
For instance, I received a message from RingCentral on Jan 7th, and when I type "ring" into the find box, the first hit is a Person, the person who sent me the message.
But if I select that Person, I get no results.
So Mail is aware I got a message from this person, but can't find the actual message.
This is *very* common, it seems it can only find messages from the last two days or so.
Any suggestions?

New Message icon appears - but can't find messages

I have the BB Curve 8330 and have the "new message" icon at the top of the screen saying I have 7 new/unread messages but I can't find them anywhere! I have checked all of the folders, deleted and re-added my email account, and was on the phone with Sprint for over an hour today and they were not able to help me.
I had this problem about 6 months ago and I think the lady told me that it was something to do with saving the messages to the server - but I have made sure that I am saving them to the server and still can't get it fixed. The last tech had me go to Options -> Mobile Network -> Start Provisioning....I did this but then another "new" message appeared that I can't find. The weird part though, is I can receive and send emails to friends and other folks, just can't get these emails off the phone. Can someone please help me??
Thank you so much!!

Tips for clearing that unread message... try them in order.
If you have a rogue New Message icon on your Homescreen, or a negative count (-1), any one of these solutions could clear it, or reset it to zero:
Try these options:
* Open your main Messages folder and highlight today's date, click the menu key and select Mark Prior Opened.
* Hard Reset the BlackBerry by holding ALT, CAP (right Shift key), and DEL (or with the BlackBerry powered ON, remove the battery and reinserting the battery)
* View Messages > Saved Messages
* View Messages > View Folders, check each folder (missed calls, SMS in and out boxes, MMS in and out boxes, Saved, browser, phone logs etc)
* Scroll to top of message folder, over the date heading, click or press menu to MARK PRIOR OPEN
* Change your theme and see if it persists, and change back to your desired theme. (Options > Theme > select.)
* Connect to Desktop Manager > Backup/Restore > Advanced. On the right-hand pane is the list of data on your device. Scroll to the email messages database and highlight it, then below, select CLEAR. This will clear your device of all messages.
* Wipe and reload your OS.

I just got my Droid Turbo. Deleted lots of emails yesterday and now not receiving any. When I try to refresh, I get an internal error, but can't figure out why. Any ideas?

I have an older iMac running 10.7.5, w iPhoto 6.0.6. Trying to purchase or upgrade iPhoto, can't find a way. Any ideas?

I have an older iMac running 10.7.5. It has iPhoto 6.0.6. I am trying to upgrade iPhoto, but cannot find any way possible to buy or upgrade it beyond present level. Recognize may not be possible to get 'current' but would welcome getting as close as possible...
Thanks for any advice.

If you do get an iLife 11 disk and install iPhoto it will be v9.0. You can run v9.4.3 so you'll need to use the following updaters to get to it:
update to iPhoto 9.2.1
update to iPhoto 9.3
update to iPhoto 9.3.2
update to iPhoto 9.4
and finally to iPhoto 9.4.3

I'm trying to find my bookmarks.plst and can't find it anywhere. Any ideas?

So, I upgraded our OS and then upgraded the HD. I forgot somehow to transfer the bookmarks from my husbands user account. Now, I can't find them on the old disc. They are not in the library and there is no bookmarks.plst. Did lion change where they are stored? Hubby's getting stressed - I need to find them. HELP!

It's in your user's Library folder which Apple hides. To get to it go to the Desktop, hold the Option key down and then goto the Go menu -> Library. In the Safari folder you should see your Bookmarks.plist.

I just bought and downloaded Elements 12 but can't launch the program. Any ideas??

I just bought and downloaded Elements 12 but can't launch the program. Every time I try to sign in to my Adobe account to get started it shuts the whole program down everytime I click sign in. Very frustrated!! I had been using the trial version and loved it and want to work with the full version now!!!

If the trial version was still on the machine then you didn't need to install another program because Trial version can be activated by inserting your serial number and activated in the normal way.
I suggest try going to Help >> Activate
and see if you can activate it otherwise, if you can't launch the program then you need to uninstall the PSE completely from the Windows Control Panel and then restart the machine to make sure there isn't anything in the computer's memory.
Now restart the machine and install your program but this time making sure you also insert the serial number and your AdobeID so that you can register and activate the program automatically.
Good luck

Hey Sharon,
ive been trying to reset one of our employees' acccounts since last thursday,
after several failed attempts. My case was escalated.
I've since been told (today) directly by itunes/account/apple id - support, that they can't reset our password,
due to a system update.
