Gmail server not connecting in OS X Apple Mail

I'm not super tech-savvy, so I will try to explain my problem the best I can (and if you can answer, please keep them simple - thank you!). When using Gmail through Apple Mail on my mac, it often pops up an error message when I go to send an email (something along the lines of can't connect to the server, choose a new one or edit SMTP list). I have googled the proper setup for Gmail numerous times and have used all of those settings so I don't know where I'm going wrong. For reference, I've attached some screenshots of my current Gmail settings within Apple Mail (I've been playing with the "use custom port" option to no avail). Please help me and thank you in advance!

Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
The solution has been to:
1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Dispatcher Running Server Not Connected

Hi,
I have the same problem on Windows 2003 Server EP6 WAS640 SR1 SP9
I have the WAS640 for ABAP with the Java Add In and the Enterprise Portal installed on top.
When I try to connect to the Portal through a browser I get the message:
Dispatcher Running Server Not Connected
In the JCMON I cannot start Server0 and I get the errors 1,2,3,4 and it tries to start and then goes to status STOPPED
Does anyone know the solution ?
My system was working, the last change I made was to authenticate users against an SAP system and then I did a reboot and now the J2EE won't start.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Tomas.

some more info, this problem started after I configured the Portal to authenticate against the SAP system
In the portal system log for server.0.log there is the following info:

Thanks very much for you help
Dayana

Hi Dayana,
This message occurs while the server is starting i.e starting the core services and delpoying the applications. From the above error message it is hard to
say what the problem is. Can you explain more on what is happening? Also generally it takes about 15 -25 minutes depends on the environment.
Also do you see any errors in the following log files
\usr\sap\XXX\JC00\work\std_server0.out ?

Dispatcher running but message server not connected

Hi Guys,
I installed SAP netweaver 7.01 trial version and using MaxDB as database server.

It sometimes shows the status 'Running but message server not connected' and sometimes 'Running but que standstill'. It would be a great help if you could guide me to the solution of this problem.

Gmail no longer pushes new messages to Apple Mail in Mavericks

I Googled [gmail push Mavericks OR 10.9 "use idle command"], and restricted results to the last year; absolutely nothing came up, so I decided to post this:
Gmail seems to no longer push email to Apple Mail in Mavericks—at least for me.
In OS 10.8 and before, enabling "Use IDLE command if the server supports it" caused Gmail to instantly push new emails to Apple Mail. No longer.
With the new "Check for new messages Automatically" option, new messages aren't coming in at all, or with severe delays (I don't recall which). When I change it to "Check for new messages Every minute," it checks every minute, which is okay, but not what I had in previous OSs: instant pushing of new messages.
Has anyone managed to solve this problem?
Or does anyone at least know what's causing the problem, and whether it's potentially fixable?

Nevermind. I am blind as a bat. I found the answer. There's an option under VIEWING in the preferences for Display unread messages with boldl font. I don't know why that is unchecked.

I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app. I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect. Hotmail works fine on Mac. Has anyone had this difficulty and been able to resolve it?

Did you try deleting the mail account, then adding it back? I've read a lot of times that is what needs to happen in order for it to work properly.

Why is my apple id not connected with my phone's mail

My Apple ID, is not connected to my cell phone's (iPhone 5c) mail, why?

A "normal" iTunes Store Apple ID/Account does NOT allow you to upload to the store.
iTunes Producer looks for you registered book sellers ID
Have you actually opened a book sellers account with Apple?
Have you opened an iTunes Connect Account?
If the answers are no... https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa/wa/bookSignup
Open the link and click on Get Started > select the free or paid book account and proceed through the sign up process.
Its advisable to use a different username/PW and email for a book sellers account and if you intend to have free and paid books, you will need separate accounts?IDs
You will be asked for your website URL ( address) if you dont have a website... Facebook is a ready answer. Apple sees this as a "Support" contact path.
If you want to sell books, you will also need an EIN number from the US tax
If you have done all this and still have problems, you first need to check and confirm all your details are correct.

10.6 mail server shared IMAP folders not working on 10.9 apple mail

So we thought we upgrade a MBPro to 10.9 for some testing and low and behold, we already encountered a serious problem... well, at least for us.
We operate a 10.6.8 mail server which also hosts shared IMAP folders, to which team members subscribe on a per project basis.
Unfortunately, in Apple Mail v7.0 we can now no longer subscribe to individual IMAP folders it simply shows all and does not allow for individual folders to be deselected.
We realise it is early days, but it seems like a massive oversight to not detect such a bug....?

Unfortunately. the latest Apple Mail update (version 7.0, build 1822) still does not resolve this.
We are really hoping that this gets resolved soon, as the obivous direct problem is that Apple Mail 7.0 downloads all emails in Public IMAP folders will result in massive problems for all Macs with limited HD capacity, e.g. for all our laptop users with SSDs.
Btw. the same applies to KERIO 8.2 based solutions... http://forums.kerio.com/t/25890//
