Gmail attachment not uploading to new mails

my computer was installed with the most recent version of Windows 7 OS. Every time I try to attach a document to a new mail on my gmail account , using firefox, the attachment does not upload. However if I use Internet explorer (IE) to send a gamil with attachment i have no issues what so ever.
N.B. - I do not have issues with Hotmail when uing firefox

I have the same problem with Firefox 3.6.12 in Kubuntu 10.04.
switching to basic attachment features doesn't work,
switching to basic HTML view doesn't work,
running Firefox in safe mode doesn't work.
Nevertheless, I can successfully upload attachments with Opera

Mail not checking for new mail after sleep

Mail will not check for new mail when waking from sleep unless I log off and back on first. I tried quitting Mail, which works once in a while. I tried putting all Accounts back online, which works occasionally. But most often nothing works except logging off. Must I change to another mail program, or is there a better solution.

After trying various solutions, I found that the fault was not with Apple Mail or my iMac but with Airport taking time to warm up after sleep. I switched to an Ethernet connection instead and it works fine now

Gmail suddenly not working with Apple Mail

My gmail suddenly is not working with Apple Mail.
It said my username or password is wrong, but it was okay this morning.
Nevertheless, I deleted my gmail account, and re-setup it using Internet Accounts from System Preference.
However, I got the beow message:
There was a problem setting up the Mail account. An unknown error occurred.
I am sure my username and password are correct because I just login it using Safari.
Does anyone know what the cause is?
Please help~~~

Gmail not syncing in mac mail is a problem that is also in snow leopard since the new year.
OSX 10.6.8 is the highest OS that will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo. Do not try to install Mavericks on this machine! I will install, but turns it into a dinosaur and many programs will no longer run.
I had an issue with Mac Mail not syncing with imap.gmail.com. and Safari not being able to find apple.com.
This was resolved by working with an upper level tech support member for several hours deleating particular system library files, uninstalling most addons, reseting system network settings and a whole lot more! (too much to name here)
Thank you Apple Tech Support.

Mail 3 and gmail issues, notes/todo's in Mail

Hello,
I use Mail 3 with my google mail account using IMAP.
I'd like to use the new notes/todo function provided by Mail. When I create a new note, it will be reset to the default values after a minute or two.
And it doesn't appear in my iCal calender(s) at any time.
I've tried both provided ways to store the notes: as mail on the server and as a local one. The problem is always the same.
When I delete the "notes mail" from my gmail account using the web interface, Mail 3 hangs when I terminate it. Removing the note using Mail 3 solved this.
But has anyone here an idea how I can use the notes feature with my gmail account (IMAP)? And is it possible to see my reminders in the calender?
Thank's for every good idea,
Felix

The Gmail app is a direct link to Gmail so deleting from the Gmail app will delete said email however from the default email app that is simply put a forwarding address so the email will not be deleted - It may be deleted or made exempt from future sync'ing but you often find that if the email hasn't fully loaded then it will be seen as unread and will reappear

Gmail messages not showing in Apple Mail

My employer just got me a brand new 15" MBP (Oct. 2013 model), running Mavericks 10.9.1. I'm going to use my old 2009 13" MBP for home use. I used Mail.app to view my work email and gmail accounts on my old computer. I had gmail configured in POP, with the idea of not deleting any messages from the gmail server so I could go back if I ever needed to to find a message. Well now I want to keep my email synced between devices, so I configured gmail as IMAP. After about 3 days of continuous downloading, I had the IMAP gmail set up (over 50,000 messages). It was working fine.
I also have a lot of old messages from an old work email account that I like to keep in Mail.app for reference. I imported these from my old Mac to the new mac. No problem. But after I did that, my gmail mailbox showed an unread message count of 50,000 + whatever it was, but no messages were displayed. Unfortunately, I don't have a timemachine backup for this new computer. I deleted the Envelope Index file in the Library/Mail/V2/MailData folder, as someone suggested in a different post and re-imported all messages, but this didnt work.
I have a time machine external drive with my old computer's backups. With the backup drive plugged into my new computer and with Mail.app active, I can click on the time machine icon at the top and select "Browse other backup disks...". I select the old backup drive and it will first show "Today" with the Mail.app open. I can see all my gmail messsages here. Time machine says "Click restore to recover the inbox for Gmail" or something like that. But the "Restore" button is grayed out, cause it's today.
I messed around with .plist and things in the Mail libraries, but nothing changed. Somewhere in my messing around with things, the message count went away. the mailbox setting have not been changed from what they were previously. I know all my messages are still on my mac cause the "[email protected]" folder is still 8.51 GB, which is what it should be.
I was able to import all the gmail emails in to mail via File->Import Mailboxes..., but this puts everything in it's own Import folder and not in the gmail inbox.
Also I can't receive new messages in gmail via Mail.app.
My work email (also set up as IMAP) is working just fine.
I don't want to remove the gmail account and reinstall, spending another 3 or 4 days downloaded all the messages (I don't know why it took that long).
Any help is appreciated.

I "fixed" the problem by copying the entire mail folder from the library on my old mac onto my new mac, replacing the newer mail folder. My old mac had gmail working just fine. Now everything works on my new. This didn't really fix the problem though. I'm not sure what was wrong with it.

Mail not notifying of new mail

Hi,
I have my Iphone 4 setup with hotmail as per the instructions on apples support page for it, but what happens is any email I get that go into my inbox notify me as normal, ie will show how many new and makes the new mail sound
But I have some rules to help sort my email and if I get new mail that falls into one of the rules, it does not notify me either by the new mail sound or a number indication on the mail app.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks David,
What I had actually done was set up a filter for all my Gmail to forward to my Exchange account and mark as read, so I didn't get duplicate new mail alerts. I had changed my Exchange account and forgotten about the filter.
All working OK now (well apart from the 3GS poor battery performance).

Gmail doesn't receive any new mail; mail activity wheel keeps spinning

Hi all,
I have never had real problems with OSX Mail but since 2 days my Imap gmail account doesn't receive any mails anymore. I already checked the account info several times and they are all ok. Also the connection doctor doesn't detect any problem with either my internet connection or the mail servers I am using. When I use safari to check my mail online, there is no problem. Also, when I use Thunderbird to check the same account (with the same account info) it just works (but I hate Thunderbird!). I use 4 mail accounts, with 2 imap accounts and only the gmail is not working properly. I'm on mail 4.2 and OSX 10.6.2.
I already completely deleted the gmail account and reinstalled it, but the same problem keeps showing up. I also deleted the com.apple.mail.plst and the imap folder in the mail directory but still, after again setting up all my accounts, the gmail account keeps showing the 'fetching new mail' wheel.
I browsed this forum for a solution and found a lot of issues much alike, but not completely the same. Anyway, I hope you have a solution!
Best regards,
Jay

I've had similar problems that started about a week about after a system upgrade. I too have tried re-registering/re-indexing mail (by pulling the mail folders out to the desktop). I've run disk utility. I did the permissions first & corrected those, then I did the verify drive (couldn't select repair yet). The drive verification identified several errors & directed I restart on OS X DVD - which I did (after it reinstalled OS X). Then I ran validate drive & it didn't find any issues. However, my mail continues to bog down and give me the spinning wheel. In the past week I have to force quit mail at least 4-5 times a day. The system is only 2 months old & I only have one POP and one IMAP email linked to it. It appears that the IMAP (gmail) is the one causing the problems. I've triple checked the settings (which hadn't changed when the problems started).
I've spent several hours the past week researching all I can in the forums. It appears that this is a common problem with no real solutions.
As a new Mac owner, I'm not impressed so far. I haven't give up hope and it is also possible that it could be due to an unknown error on my part as a novice Mac user. Just the same, though, previous PCs at least lasted more than 2 months.
Like Jay, I hope someone has a solution. Thanks.

Clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express, but does not create a new mail, which it used to. annoying as it then means cutting & pasting the details

As I said above, clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express which is my default email client. In the past it used to also open a new mail, ready for me to type the message but now it does not. It works if I load internet explorer as the browser but does not in firefox. I prefer firefox, so can someone help me resolve this. Its so annoying to have to open a new mail then cut & paste the email details.

I posted this reply elsewhere in the support forum but I'll copy it here for you, as follows....
I had the same problem. Initially thought I needed a string (code) to run the "Create new e-mail" command for Outlook but I didn't. I did a few things that eventually made it work, but I don't know for certain which one it was so here goes.
1.) Go to Control Panel and click on Internet Properties. Go to the Programs tab and double-check that Outlook Express is your default e-mail client. (This is probably for IE).
2. Close Outlook Express. Select the RUN command from the Start Menu and type the following: <msimn /reg>. Only type the info between the brackets. Click the OK button and wait about 5 seconds. Nothing will happen on screen but the information is being silently written to the registry.
3. Open Outlook Express and go to the Tools Menu. Select Options. On the General tab, look down to the Default Messaging Programs. More than likely, the top option will say that "This application is NOT the default Mail handler" Click the button next to it that says "Make Default". This should trigger an available option in Firefox, below, if it was not already available.
4. In Firefox, go to the Tools menu. Select Options. Click on Applications. Under the column, "Content Type" look for the mailto function. In the column Action, select "Use Outlook Express (default)" if it is not already selected. "(default)" must be part of the phrase. Somehow there is code behind this option that will bring up a new e-mail in Outlook that otherwise does not work if Outlook is selected manually. (To choose Outlook manually, you will indeed have to find the string code somewhere.)

MAIL on my MAC does not load any new mail or delete any mail in any of my other folders

I've been having this problem for a couple of days now. Its as if MAIL just doesn't respond to anything. I can't get any New MAIL to load. And if i try to delete anything from SPAM, JUNK... and so on. They won't delete, they just show up again after deleting.
I restarted the computer, and checked all my settings as well. I also uodated the computer.
MAIL works from my iphone ans ipad. Just not MACBOOK PRO.
Any help is appreciated.
Jimmy

Drafts, ToDos (Notes), and Outbox are found normally in the Mailboxes folder but do not usually appear in the On My Mac section. As for Deleted Messages that may be a remnant from before you used an IMAP account or if you at one time configured Mailbox Behaviors in Mail preferences to keep deleted messages locally instead of on the IMAP server.

New E-mail Badge number not updated with new mail in folders (iPhone 4S)

I setup my exchange e-mail to push certain folders as well as my inbox but only my inbox mail will update the badge number. If I get mail in a folder the phone just vibrates and shows the notification but the badge is not updated. Seems kind of pointless to have the mail pushed if the badge isn't updated as well. Is there a way to change this or a reason why it is not updating? And yes I have all the options to allow the badge to be shown, also show in notification center, show in lock screen, etc. It was working with 7.0.3, but after I updated it, I realized it stopped working. Any ideas?

So i pretty much got ticked at my iphone. Not only was my "sent folder" not updating, the new 2.0 was crashing and hanging all my applications. e-mail photos wont send, got error messesges , at least every application crashed at some point in the last week, even after i did a restore and back-up. SO pretty much i restored to factory out of the box settings and just started as a "new iphone".
as for the whole "sent folder" not updating. I changed the setting to download "Last 200" messeges. Then i kept updating until all 1,000 messeges were downloaded. After that point my iphone would update whenever i sent new messeges. But it would take forever cause it was checking against a 1,000 e-mails for new ones.... SO i give up, i just dumped all my "sent e-mails" to a new folder called "sent archives" ( u can call it whatever u want). I think this is the easiest fix for now.
if i get any more issues.. i'm just gonna go restore my phone back to the software rev before 2.0 came out....

Mail not checking for new mail

I have been noticing this for a while now but it is becoming extraordinarily frustrating to deal with: Mail.app does not report new emails have arrived unless I restart it, no error or warnings are displayed or indicated. I know there is new mail available only because I check on my iPhone and see that I have multiple new messages which arrived long before the 5 min check for new mail time I have set. Is there anything to "fix" this or do I have to find another mail app?
Just a bit of info, I do have 6 different IMAP accounts all loaded through mail. The "Get Mail" button doesn't do anything.

Same situation here... Thunderbird works ok... but I have to wait a lot or restart mail if I want to get the messages... Manually clicking "Get All New mail" doesn't work.
Any idea how to debug this problem? Any log file or tip? I am wondering if my problem is related to my IMAP server or it's just Mail

OSX Mail not checking for new mail on wake from Sleep.

Since upgrading to 10.6.4, my iMac no longer checks for new mail when waking from sleep. I have to manually Get Mail, and then it keeps up to date as normal. RSS feeds get updated fine. I am using MobileMe mail.
Any ideas? I have restarted Mail and rebooted the computer. Nothing obvious in the logs.

I think you will find this is a product of the use of the IDLE command. When the computer is asleep, but you have not quit Mail and logged off, the MobileMe server try to contact the Mail app to "push" emails. Not finding any response from Mail, the account is logged off. Quitting Mail and relaunching should restore -- does it?
You can test this by deselecting to use IDLE in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced.
Most people, who leave Mail running, would only allow the display to sleep and not the computer.

Email not checking for new mail

hi, my email has stopped auto checking for new mail ( as it is set up to) , and will only do so when i quit and restart the program
if i hit get mail while it's running, nothing happens
i can see new emails via .mac but will only get them if i quit and restart mail
also now the rules and i have sometimes work and sometimes don't
i tried sending myself test emails, and there is long delay between sending and receiving it ( about an hour )
thanks

hi there
it's .mac
we did try removing the .plist file, and it made no differnce
i am getting increasingly frustrated by the mail app, it's never been a particularlty good example of MAC software ( not very stable ), but now as well as unexplainable lulls where all you can do is watch spinning clock faces ( despite having a fast broadband connection ) , i'm also having to deal with sent emails re-appearing as drafts, even though they have been already been sent
i feel like i don't have the time to keep trying to find out what is going on, as i'm very busy right now, although any help is always appreciated
thanks
Alan,
Refresh my memory: what type(s) of account are you
using -- POP, IMAP or .mac?
Since I believe your setting up a new User Account,
and Mail in it worked, did you ever remove the
com.apple.mail.plist, and cause Mail to need to be
setup again? To do this, quit Mail, and in the
Finder open Home/Library and locate the Mail folder.
Control-click over the Mail folder, and choose
Duplicate -- then drag the resulting copy to the
Desktop for temporary backup. Next, open
Home/Library/Preferences and find the
com.apple.mail.plist file and drag it to the
desktop.
Relaunch Mail, which will open as though new, and
when prompted to import anything DECLINE.
Instead, re-enter your account info, and Mail will
re-discover the account for this account, and all
should be well.
Sorry that I have not had time to go back over every
one of your prior posts.

Gmail is not working with Apple Mail

I am trying to get my Gmail account working through IMAP in Apple Mail on the Mountain Lion operating system. I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and it is frustrating to not have this working.
When I attempt to set up my account, I get the below message:
The Google IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages.
I know the server is working because I am able to get into Gmail everywhere else. It sounds like other people may also have this problem. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Excel attachment not rendering correctly in Mail but fine on iPod touch

Some attachments (most notably Excel files) that I've been receiving lately (last month or so) have not showed up correctly as attachments in Mail (currently using v. 4.4). In the list view it shows the paperclip icon but when I click on the message the preview pane shows what I assume is mime code or something. If I check the same message on my iPod touch, the attachment shows up at the bottom of the message as an attached file icon (correctly identified as an Excel spreadsheet). Suggestions?
