Is DreamHost your Mail provider?
Look here for the proper mail server settings for Dreamhost.

I cannot connect my outlook email with Mac mail

I am trying to connect my outlook email to my mac mail. I have tried it through Exchange, but it is not working. It keeps saying server is unavailable. Help!

Hi there! I have a 2014 kia C'eed and I also can't get my ipod nano to connect to the bluetooth. Works ok when I plug it into the usb port though, but didn't want to have to be constantly unplugging it when leaving the car. The nano sees the BT in car but car can't seem to find my nano. If you find a solution can you let us know please?!!!
Thanks!

How can I import 1000s of Emails from Mac Mail (Exchange Account) into Gmail and Retain Labels?

I have an old exchange account in Mac Mail, disconnected, but still with 1000s of emails in a folder structre. I'd like to import all of those into my Gmail account, and retain the folder structre as Gmail labels). What's th easiest way to do this?

That is a question for Google, as far as I know Exchange does not use labels, the folders are (unlike Gmail) real.
But Google support may know a way.

How do I archive my older emails in Mac Mail?

After several years of use, I now have about 20,000 emails in my Mac Mail program, which has caused my mail program to slow to a crawl (it actually crashed the other day and had to be rebuilt and has slowed down even more since then). I would like to clear most of these emails out so that my Mac can go back to operating properly again, but I would also like to permanently archive them (including all my sent emails) to an external hard drive, just in case I need to go back and find something.
Anyone know the best and easiest way to do this?
Thanks.

With Mac OS X Mail, all you have to do is backup your Users -> yourname -> Library -> Mail and Mail Downlaods folder. If you ever decide you want to reimport the data, Mail offers its own Import Mailboxes function in its menu, and you will just bring up those folders. Then you can just delete mailboxes you don't wish to keep.
With other Mail software the solution varies.

I am soooooooooooo confused now. Ok, if you are having problems with Yahoo Mail and Gmail but you do not use Apple's Mail you need to do the following:
1 - Post in Yahoo's Mail forums and/or contact their tech support.
2 - Post in Gmails forums and/or contact their tech support.
Neither of the above are Apple's products.

Unfortunately you can't delete accounts, you also can't change or remove iCloud addresses.

How do you connect a microphone to a Mac?

How do you connect a microphone to the Mac? I'm trying to record vocals onto Garage Band. I tried to use an adapter (XLR to MONO 3.5 mm) to connect directly to the port on the side of the MacBook Pro.

I prefer USB mics - a really cool and nice one that I used to have was the Blue Snowball, available at Amazon for a great price. It got lost in a move but I intend on getting another.

Problems setting up email client (Mac Mail) with BC hosted emails

This issue has me tearing my hair out! My client wanted to take advantage of the 10 emails addresses with WebBasics. Very simple to sort out and the emails are all happily available with mail going in and out through the WebMail interface. Brilliant.
However my client wanted to be able to access her emails through Mac Mail. And I cannot get the outgoing mail to work.
I have followed instructions to the letter, and I can get emails to come in but when I try to send it simply states that the stmp.clientsdomain.com say's it's offline.
I have tried using alternative ports, also using the ISP outgoing mail setting with no luck.
My main issue after speaking to the livechat guys at BC and using Factsheets, is the information on them (screenshots etc) just does not reflect Mac Mail, I admit that I am probably using a later / earlier version but the differences seemt o be huge. For instance, I keep being told that I need to UNTICK the SSL box during configuration. But my version of Mac Mail, doesn't give me the option to tick or untick at any point, it does however throw up a warning message saying that my client's domain is invalid inscure but I can carry on. Similarly when I look at the Account Summary on the FactSheet it says that it should show "SSL:OFF" but when I follow the instructions it states "SSL:ON" . I have gone into preferences afterwards to untick SSL but it still does not work.
Anyone have an answer?

Hi Peter,
I'm afraid not, I turned to Apple support forums, followed their advice for troubleshooting Mac Mail (obviously not relevant to you using Outlook) but It involved scanning ports checking firewalls etc, all of this was clear and I just cannot see the problem.
I even got one of the Livechat BC guys to look into it, by setting up a dummy email address on the client's account, I think he was rather intrigued, but I'm not sure he's had much luck as he still hasn't got back to and that was over 20 hours ago.
Can your client receive emails? I can only get my client's account receiving emails, when I try to send an email I just keep receiving an message telling me that it cannot connect to smtp!
According to the BC fact sheet for sending and receiving emails: "By Default, email software will set the SMTP port to 25, which is the standard port for the smtp protocol. However our mail service has two alternative ports available that you can send through. 8025 or 587.
However it's not blocked and those port settings didn't work either.
The Apple fact sheet made mention to firewall settings possibly also blocking, but it's not relevant to me using my version of OS.
Good luck, and please repost if you get any further.
I am now just looking for a reason that my client's mail WONT work on Mac Mail, just so I can sound professional when I tell them the answer is "no".

Click on the systems preferences icon located in your dock at the bottom of the screen (it looks like a couple of gears.) Click on Mail, Contacts, and Calendars. Then Choose the add account option and pick which email service you want from the right pane. I'm running Lion.

How do you connect your iPhone to a mac so the calendar gets updated wirelessly

How do you connect your iphone to a mac so the calender gets updated wirelessly?

If you mean using iCloud, you go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, then turn Calendars (and anything else you want to sync with iCloud) on. Then on your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud sign in with your iCloud ID and check Calendars (and anything else you want to sync with iCloud).
This requires iOS 5 or higher on your phone and OS X 10.7.5 or higher on your Mac.

Importing Windows Outlook 2007 email to Mac Mail using Thunderbird Workaround Looses Some Messages

After being away from using a Mac for 5 years I'm back with an iMac.
I found this workaround to import Outook 2007 emails to Mac Mail using Thunderbird on the PC http://www.trickyways.com/2010/08/how-to-transfer-emails-from-outlook-to-apple-m ail/
On the PC Thunderbird imports all my Outlook messages correctly and all are there.
Then when I import the resulting Thunderbird mailboxes to Mac Mail some messages are being lost. The directory structure for my mail folders imports correctly, just that some messages are missing.
There are earlier posts here saying Eudora Mailbox Cleaner worked for people but this wont run on Mountain Lion.
So has anybody got any ideas on how the get all my Outlook e-mails to the Mac without losing anything?
What about software like Outlook2Mac, does it work fully or will I still have the same issue of some lost mail?
Can't believe I am having this problem migrating Window to Mac, you'd think it would work perfectly and not put people off from switching.
Cheers.

Okay I slept on it and had a brain wave.
I set up iCloud Mail on Outlook 2007. Then copy messages from my Outlook Inbox to iCloud Inbox.
On the Mac copy the messages from iCloud Inbox to a folder On My Mac so they never get lost if I delete the iCloud account.
Playing about with it and it seems to work fine. Any reason why it could cause issues?
I love it when a workaround comes together!
