Gmail does not work through Air Port / Time Capsule

I have narrowed down my problem with sending and receiving email to the Time Capsule base station. If I select the crappy Linksys router/wifi access point that is closest to my cable modem I am able to send and receive mail to both Gmail and my own hosted service. If I select the base station in my Time Capsule, which connects to the Linksys then I receive "imap.gmail.com is not responding".
Time Capsule is in Bridge mode. I have also tried putting the Time Capsule in "Distributes a Range of IP Addresses" too.
What's weird is that my mac is always connected to the Time Capsule and it is able to get mail without any problem.
Also, I have no problem accessing mail when I turn on 3G cellular data.
Problem is definitely with the Time Capsule. Thoughts?

This is most likely because you are using a cable modem.. please give the details of the modem.
If that is the case you need to power off the cable modem for a time.. 5min .. 30min.. 60min.. overnight.. indeterminiate. Each ISP is different. But the MAC address of the computer has been captured and the lease is only offered to that computer.
The TC must be in router mode.. this is assuming a pure modem and setup WAN port to the modem ethernet.
If you keep having trouble give exact network details.. modem.. make and model? Type of broadband service. and how the TC is setup.

  • New Air Port Time Capsule Not Working With Old Airport Express

    I have been running a home network comprised of a Air Port Time Capsule (A1254) and 5 ea Air Port Express (A1264) for several years with no problem.
    The Air Port Time Capsule (A1254) died and I replaced it with an Air Port Time (A1470). Now none of the Air Port Express (A1264) work, all flashing yellow. All other network functions seem to work okay, Time Capsule Backup, Apple TV, Internet …
    I am using AirPortUtility 6.3.1 for setup but do not see any way to setup the Air Port Express.

    Reset the Express to factory and start over.. they should work.. are you using all 5 in extend wireless mode?
    When you reset the Express click on the wifi icon in the top menu area.. and the newly reset AEx will appear in the list.. click it and Airport utility will open and attempt to automagically connect it to the TC.

  • Gmail does not work with Mountain Lion

    Since I installed Mountain Lion, Gmail does not work properly. I still receive emails, but everytime I try to send an email through my gmail account a window opens and says:
    "Cannot send message using the server smtp.gmail.com:[email protected]  Sending the message content to the server failed.  select a different outgoing mail servre from the list below or click Try later..."
    Any way, the only smtp mail that works is my Icloud email. Exchange server works too.  Yahoo does not work either.
    I appreciate any insight to this problem.
    Thanks

    You likely have corrupted settings for your  "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)" for each of the failed Accounts.  Open Mail>go to Mail's Preferences>Accounts>select an Account in the left column to work on>then set up your Outgoing Mail Server which will INCLUDE resetting up your Password, as its asking you to.  Click on "SMTP Outgoing Mail Server" near the bottom of the Accounts window while your mail account is highlighted in the left hand column.  When you click on SMTP... you will see a drop down box icon offered at the right side of the line.  Click it and then select at the bottom of the the list "Edit SMTP Mail Server".  Fill in the required settings for your ISP mail account using their recommended settings.

  • HT4262 WI-Fi not working says air port not configured

    Wi-fi not working says air port not configured, help]

    Life is getting more complicated to do support..
    You need to tell us what version airport.. extreme or express and the model number. A1xxx from the label.
    You need to tell us OS.. if the profile which says 10.6.8 is wrong.. as that is confusing.
    The new AC version Extreme needs 6.3 version airport utility which is only available for Lion or mountain Lion.
    You might also need to turn on ipv6 local-link to get it to show in the utility.

  • Air Port Time Capsule, Sonos Play 1, iTunes, Apple TV

    Hi,
         I'm looking at purchasing an Air Port Time Capsule 2TB and a Sonos Play 1. I'd like to run all my iTunes from the APTC to the Sonos Play 1 and the films onto my Apple TV. I'd like to do this without having to turn on my macbook pro.
         My macbook pro only has a 500gb harddrive and is maxed out for space. Being able to do this would save having to turn on my laptop just to listen to music or watch a film.
         Will this be possible or does anybody else have any ideas?
    Help would be appreciated
    Carl

    Sonos may be able to play the music but you cannot stream the movie without itunes running. The TC is NOT a media player.. it is a dumb store for files.
    With iTunes you have no choice but to run a computer.. but the iTunes can be stored on the TC if you must..
    A large USB drive plugged into your laptop is faster, more reliable and can be backed up by Time Machine.. A TC cannot be backed up by Time Machine, it is slow and will have issues with the library and running iTunes.
    It can be pressed into duty.. but will never shine.

  • HT1178 Air port time capsule

    Does the Air port time capsule have to be permanently connected to the WAN input to provide a wireless network ? I have a wireless network in my house and where I want to keep my Air Port Time Capsual i have no WAN conectoin anywhere close!

    I am trying to interpret your question.
    I have a wireless network in my house and where I want to keep my Air Port Time Capsual i have no WAN conectoin anywhere close!
    What you really mean is ethernet connection?? A LAN connection?
    You would never connect the TC to WAN.. unless you mean to replace your main router.. !!
    If you are happy using the TC as the main router or even as a bridge router and just continue to use your current wireless network, you would plug it into the main router whereever that is located. It doesn't matter where.
    The TC can join a wireless network.. but it is seriously poor..
    Here is how.. look at the screenshots here.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5719954?tstart=0
    It is super slow.. it will cause the TC to become a dumb client on the network.. it will no longer have ethernet ports.. or a WAP.. just don't.

  • Questions sur Air Port Time Capsule!!

    Bonjour, je viens d'acheter un air port Time capsule car on m'a dit que je pouvais stocker mes photos (que j'ai du les enlever de mon ordi car trop plein) comment faire?? 
    Et si oui il y a un programme??
    Je peux direct brancher les mémoires externes dessus??
    Je peux mettre aussi des programmes que je n'utilise que très rarement dessus?? Comme ça je libère de la place sur l'ordi....
    Donc est-ce que je peux l'utiliser comme mémoire externe en plus du Time Machine??
    Grand merci pour votre aide...
    Julie
    PS: désolée pour le français mais si j'écris en anglais je suis encore là dans plusieurs jours...

    USB disque est mieux
    Utilisez le Time Capsule pour les sauvegardes.

  • Home Sharing does not work. It's time for Apple to act.

    My specific question: Does anyone from Apple read these discussions *and* use the information to fix iTunes?
    My issue (and I've given up on this): Home Sharing does not work and it needs to be fixed. I use a Windows 7 based PC and can successfully access my iTunes library from my iPad, meaning all network requirements are met. However many artists and albums do not appear. I know this is not about the tagging/data for the albums.
    I found recommendations in these forums regarding the iTunes database (.itl), that this is a sign that the database is corrupted, and how to re-create it from the xml version. I used this technique and it did fix the problem - all albums and artists appeared. But within a day or so, they disappear again, meaning the .itl file is corrupted again and has to be re-created again. Also - if the .itl file is corrupted, then why does everything appear fine in iTunes? Somewhere, somehow the data are good enough to make iTunes work properly.
    Bottom line: If you can't get the basics right, then Home Sharing does not work. Some very helpful forum commenters said it could have something to do with the anti-virus software, but that is just passing the buck.  I should not have to know how to do all this. I should be able to turn on Home Sharing and enjoy the music from my iPads, iPhone, etc. Imagine you have to know how fuel injection works and be able to fix it every two days just to use your car - you should be able to turn the key and drive.
    There are more problems - I won't even get into how the album won't display properly on the iPad and other annoyances.
    Apple? Are you listening? Home Sharing does not work. It is the opposite of the image projected of easy-to-use, people-friendly products.
    I suggest you either make it work or turn off the feature.
    Joe

    If your database is constantly becoming corrupt, you have a problem on your computer, it is nothing to do with homesharing. The corrupt database does not affect iTunes because that uses another file. It's not passing the buck, by considering whether anti-virus software might be causing this, this is the sort of stuff anti-virus software does (although I'm not saying that's what it is in your case-I don't know at this stage), you can't hold Apple accountable for badly written software that you have put on your computer yourself.
    If you can't correctly identify what is causing your problem, you are never going to fix it.

  • HT201401 My iphone 5 volumn down button does not work most of the time. it feels fine.  in an otterbox defender. this is my second iphone that it is doing the same thing.

    i have a iphone 5. the volume button going down only does not work.  this is my second phone with the same problem.  i have had otterboxes for both phones.

    Does not work even with the case off. I formatted and rebooted, reset, called apple and sent the last one back. It was free but this is getting old. I have had all iPhones and this is the only one I have had issues.

  • Airport utility does not find any airport and time capsule hardware

    Hi, I have 4 airport expresses (2 for music and one for extending network) and a time capsule that also acts as my wifi router. The expresses have always appeared and disappeared from the express utility, while the TC is always listed. Now airport utility cannot find find any of them, and after many rescans, and a few "successful" hard reboots (in the sense that they were configured, but then disappeared again), still does not see them. The strange thing is that the TC has to be working because this computer is hooked up to the internet via the wifi router, and it is working fine. Any ideas? The expresses are not that big of a deal, as I can always plug an ipod to play music, but they used to work. I am on 5.4.2 on the utility, having rolled it back a few months ago when some of these problems begain. thanks

    Welcome to the discussions!
    It sounds like you are trying to scan for and configure your Apple devices using wireless. If you haven't tried this yet, I think you will have much better luck if you connect an ethernet cable directly from your computer to the device that you are trying to "see".
    If this does not work at first, it may help to power down both your computer and the device, then connect the ethernet cable and power the computer and device back up.

  • Reply-to function in Gmail does not work when sending from iPhone

    I'm using Gmail for my iPhone and have the "reply-to" function set up so that recipient's of emails will reply to my business email address and not reply back to my gmail address. It works fine when sending emails directly from Gmail on the web interface. However, when I use the iPhone to send an email, the recipient gets my gmail address when replying to me. They do not the get "reply-to" email address. This seems to be an iPhone issue. I noticed another post about this issue involving Yahoo reply-to acting the same way with the iPhone and replied to that regarding my gmail experience. Are any other gmail users experiencing the same thing with the reply-to function? Any suggestions on how to fix?
    Thanks

    Setting the reply-to on the web interface does not change the reply-to on the iPhone. In order for you to specify a different reply-to on the iPhone, you need to configure your GMail account using the "Other" shortcut, not the GMail shortcut. The Other shortcut allows you to specify your work ID as the address, and your GMail ID as your login for incoming and outgoing servers.

  • Spotlight search (search iphone) does note work half of the time.

    When searching my iphone4s nothing show up half the time. (spotlight search)  Sometimes it works fine and other times I type and it does not search or show anything. Powering down the phone did not fix.  Just odd it works for a minute then seems to stop completly.  No other problems besides this one.

    OK, well at least it works 50% of the time.

  • Sound does not work correctly all the time, on youtube.

    So I have been having this issue for a while now, and I have tried everything to fix it on my own.
    My issue is sometimes you-tube videos will play about 1-2 sec of sound then stop, the video will buff all the way out and I can watch it but no sound will come from it. Once it happens if I try to watch another video they will all have no sound, but if i start up itunes it will still play music, so it's not my PC.
    Once I close Firefox and reopen it 80% of the time it will play sound on the same video, the other 20% of times it will play 1-2secoinds of sound again and quit playing sound, if I restart fire fox again it will play just fine. Also I do not seem to get this issue with internet explore.
    Stuff I have done.
    Check for updates for my video/sound cards.
    Uninstalled/installed flash 3 times even downloads the Adobe Flash player uninstaller, then reinstalled flash again.
    Unchecked enable hardware acceleration, in the Adobe Flash setting.
    My setup
    Firefox 3.6.13
    Windows 7 64bit
    ATI HD radeon HD 4350 video card.
    I have my PC connected to my TV, sound/video is carried with a HDMI cable from my video card.

    Did you check the settings for Firefox in the Volume Mixer?
