How can I get my e-mail sounds back?

Until about a week ago, I heard a sound when new mail arrived and a nice swish when mail went out. Now silence! I tried Sound in System Preferences -- but no help there. Please advise. Thanks!

Hi Norman --
Until about a week ago, I heard a sound when new mail arrived and a nice swish when mail went out. Now silence! I tried Sound in System Preferences -- but no help there. Please advise. Thanks!
You wrote that you "tried system preferences," but did you also check the mail application's own preferences?
With Mail open, click on the "Mail" menu in the upper left-hand corner, select "preferences," select the "general" tab and make sure that you've selected the "new mail sound" in the drop down menu for your "new mail sound" and have checked the box next to where it says "play sounds for other mail actions."
If all of the above check out, you should also re-check that the volume in System Preferences > Sound > Output is adjusted sufficiently high.

  • How can I get my old mail account back?

    I f&%€ up and deleted my old mail account after I had added my new one ( I've changed ISP). So all old mails disappeared.
    Is it possible to restore them my self? Or do I have to go to the Mac doctor?
    I'm greatful for all help

    Hi John and thank you.
    I use Mail.
    I deleted the settings for the old account by mistake - I just thought I wouldn't need it anymore after having set up the new one - and suddenly the inbox was empty. A not so nice surprise
    However I managed to find a folder named Mail with a POP - folder in it, in the trash can, which I dragged to my desktop. But I haven't been able to import it.
    I found some useful earlier threads and intructions from some David Gimeno, so I removed the .mbox extension from the INBOX.mbox file.
    BUT still, Mail won't import. It says it doesn't find any valid mbox files.
    The INBOX.mbox is about 12 Mb, so I recconed there would be something in it.

    How can I get Data from the Sound cart in Labview? Does a VI exist?

    Yes, there are VIs for acquiring data from Sound cards. And examples too. If you don't have LabVIEW yet, do a search on NI's site for example VIs.

  • How can i get my e-mail address linked to my skype...

    How can i get my e-mail address linked to my skype user name.

    You can use a different email account, but it will not appear on icloud.com as iCoud only hosts iCloud email.  Just add your account to the email client on your PC as you would any other email account.  To add the account on your iOS devices (iPhone), go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account, choose your provider and provide your account details.
    You can't redownload purchased ringtones from iCloud for free but you can sync them to your 5c using iTunes.  To do so, connect your iPhone 4 to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Then go to the Tones folder of your iTunes library and confirm that the ringtones appear there.  (If you don't see the Tones folder, go to Edit>Preferences>General and make sure Tones is checked in the Show options.)
    Then connect your 5c to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Tones folder of your iTunes sync settings, then check Sync Tones and click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.

  • How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

    How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

    gjortega,
    Your sidekick may be relaying through a different server. If its on AT&T, it could be using cwmx.com for outgoing. However, cwmx.com only works for AT&T/Cingular EDGE customers. When on Wi-fi it won't allow you to send through it.
    Many internet providers, but not all, provide an authenticating SMTP server to use when travelling. If you configured your outgoing server to use the email providers authenticating SMTP server information on a port different from port 25, you will be able to use it on most networks. Some wireless networks filter a wider range of ports, such as some work places.
    This article discusses the issue in more detail:

    You can open your second profile which is no ability of receiving new mail and export all of messages/contacts/calendar item to a PST file and save it somewhere.
    Then open the first profile, import the privious PST file into this profile to solve the problem.
    Using .pst files in Microsoft Outlook is good way to transfer the data, here is some information how to manage the PST file for your reference.

  • How can i get my junk mail on my ipad?

    How can i get my junk mail on my ipad ? I only receive regulare e-mail on my ipad. Offten regular mail is placed into junk mail.

    With an IMAP account along with storing the account's junk mailbox on the server with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account.
    All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account will be available automatically when accessing the account with the iPad's Mail app along with all server stored mailboxes kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account. You will also be able to transfer a legit message from the account's junk mailbox to the account's Inbox mailbox.
    None of this is possible with a POP account.

    Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

  • When I turn on messages, I can't see my messages.  All I can see is a screen with horizontal lines and a text list of addresses.  How can I get the regular message screen back?

    When I turn on Messages, I can't see my messages.  All I can see is a screen with horizontal lines.  How can I get the regular Messages screen back?

    The same is happening for me. Today I decided to reboot my PC because it was acting up a bit, go figure, and then for some reason at the same time the PC was restarting my macbook froze. I had to do a reboot with the restart button but then all that came up was a gray background and in the middle of the screen was a darker gray folder with a white question mark in the middle of it, blinking. I can't imagine why the restart would've affected my macbook. After finding information on how to fix this, I tried all of the steps that were given about using the mac OS X disk to use the first aid utility to fix it. When using the Disk Utility option whenever I select my hardrive and am in the First Aid tab, the only button I can use is the Verify Disk Permissions. The other three buttons, and namely the most important Repair Disk button, is/are not selectable (grayed out). I then tried resetting the PRAM the way they also said with the command + option + P + R and waited for the second startup sound. After that I gave the Disk Utility a second try, but still nothing. And now if I try to just reinstall the OS completely I can't even select a destination volume on the third step (Select Destination). Apparently this means i'm SOL.

    Move the mouse pointer to the top right corner of the Mail window and hold it there.
