How do I ensure mail is sent from the correct email account? I have two set up on my iPad, and it seems to choose which one to use somewhat randomly. This has happened both when using Mail and when emailing form another app.

I have two email accounts set up on my iPad -- one I use & one I monitor for a disabled person. On several occasions, mail I have composed and sent from my email account was sent showing the other account as the sender. This has happened both from within Mail and when emailing from other apps, such as Safari, Photos, etc. Any idea what is going on and how to prevent this from happening?

Are you confirming your POP account is selected as the sending email account before the message is sent?
And regardless if the email is a new email or is replying to or forwarding an email received by the POP account and cofirming the POP acconut is selected as the sending email account, the message is sent by the Gmail account?
All message sent by the POP account are sent by the Gmail account?
If so, delete the Gmail account from your iPad and test if a message sent with your POP account which will be the only email account available with the iPad's Mail app is recieved from your POP account/address.
If not, something else is wrong or on play that has nothing to do with the iPad.

I had some time finally figuring why I could buy and download from the Itunes store, but could not load it on my IPOD. What finally worked was plugging my IPOD in to the computer, as I would when "syncing", and, after loading, it would show my device in the side bar. You have to go to VIEW in the top Tool Bar and click on SHOW SIDE BAR in the drop down menu. "SUMMARY' tab, on top, is what I clicked on to show an option of restoring my IPOD to the factory defaults. It erases everything on the IPOD, but gives an option of AUTOFILL afterwards, which it does from the computer. This is one solution of many you could try. Good luck.

How can I transfer all my music from the apple ID account on my dad's computer to my new computer without burning like a hundred CD's?

For non-iTunes purchases you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

HT5100 Each time I buy diamonds on hayday I am charged for 2 lots of £2.99 when I should only be charged once. This has happened on a few occasions and when I go to "report a problem" it won't let me. This is the 2nd time I have asked about this?

Help I have been charged double each time for diamonds on Hayday and can't report the problem.

If the 'report a problem' link from your purchase histrory doesn't work then try contacting iTunes support via this page (these I user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Mails are sent from wron account

Hi,
My iPad is set up with two email accounts (both from Google; one Gmail and one Google Apps). When I send mail, the from address is always the same no matter which account I set as default. The compose screen shows the correct account but the mail is still sent from a specific account.
This is not confined to Mail; it also happens when sharing stuff from Safari, Photos (which is Mail at the end of the day).
I don't have this problem on my iPhone which uses the same accounts and Apple ID.
For what it's worth: The iPad is only a few weeks old and was restored from an iCloud backup.

Well, it doesn't use the standard account. It uses the same account no matter what I set as standard account. Also, when sending mail, the from address is set to the address I wish to use, but it still ends up as sent from the other account.
I just tested sending from Mail again a few times. Mails are sent from the wrong account no matter what I do. Even if I open the mailbox of the account I want to use, mails are still sent from the other account.
I was wondering if it could have anything to do with SMTP and both accounts being hosted by Google. I checked the SMTP settings for both accounts and they are set up to use distinctive SMTP settings. No logins are shared or anything.

Why is mail being sent from wrong account

I am trying to send mail from a specific account, however even though it is showing as the correct account when it is received it is from my partners account. I have followed the @mail@ set up and checked everything - which appears to be ok - but it is still wrong somewhere. HELP please.

I am having this same issue. I have several accounts (all .live) which I use for my various different jobs. Frequently now I am sending a mail, or replying to a mail, and it is being received from the wrong account.
- I check the account at the top of the mail that I am sending is correct.
- the mail listed in my 'Sent' folder shows as being sent from the correct account.
- When a client replies to my mail, the reply comes to an incorrect account, and on their email the heading for my original mail shows the incorrect email address & name.
- the email accounts seem to be random - not always the same incorrect one is used.

How to find out web-inf path from the physical drive?

How to find out web-inf path from the physical drive?
I have some user profiles in web-inf directory.SO I want to know the path from root directory like
d:/program files/allaire/jrun/appname/web-inf/profiles/username like that.
Presently I am able to get the path upto the application directory and from that I am concatinationg web-inf/profiles/username .
But it is giving problems when it is deployed under unix or linux.Because web-inf there it treats as WEB_INF
SO I want to get the path of web-inf directory with out hard coding.
Thanku

String path = application.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/profiles/username");
Note sure why you need this, but you don't need the real path to read the file - you can get an InputStream using the relative path. See ServletContext getResource() and getResourceAsStream().

ITunes Match: How can I tell if a matched song is from the correct album?

Since iTunes Match uses my album art and metadata, is there a way to see the album art of the matched item from iTunes?
I have ripped hundreds of classical music CDs through the years into iTunes, and they all have album art (not from iTunes Match).   Now that I have signed up for iTunes Match, how can I confirm that a matched item from iTunes is from the correct album?
I have read that the matching algorithm isn't perfect and can match to the wrong item.   I have recently upgraded the quality of all my ripped music by downloading all the matches from iTunes Match, and replacing my local CD rips (I have backups).
So, if I ripped Beethoven's 9th by Herbert Von Karajan, is there a way to see the album art of the matched music from iTunes, so that I can confirm it didn't match the item to Beethoven's 9th by Bruno Walter?
Does the matching algorithm use song length/duration, or is it only using wave form sampling?
Thanks!
Paul

Thanks for the help Jim.
I'm not having any troubles with artwork changing, but I wish I were, because if the artwork changed then that would allow me to detect if the correct tracks are being matched.
I'm worried about waveform matching with classical music because I can have 2 pianists or 2 orchestras that play the same piece so it seems that the waveforms would be very similiar.   I have many CDs of the same pieces of music but by different performers. For example, both performers play on a piano and both play the same piece of music. Wouldn't the waveforms be very similar?
So that's why I'm wondering if there is some way to get the artwork of the piece being matched, so that I can see what album it is coming from.
Do you think if I deleted my artwork and then matched, that I'd get the artwork injected into my matched music?
Thanks again for entertaining all my questions. Really appreciate it.

How do I specify the gmail outgoing server if I have multiple gmail accounts in my mail? I have 2 business accounts and when I send mail from one account, it is sent from the other account and the sending email is not from the correct account.

I love my apple email and do not want to use google mail on safari. However, I have 2 gmail accounts set up on apple mail, but when I send mail from one of my gmail accounts (I choose the specific gmail account in the drop down window), it actually goes out as if it is from the other gmail account. I can't have that happen because one is my job, the other is a personal business account and unfortunately, the mail from both gmail accounts want to send through the personal business account. How do I make it send from a specific gmail account? I even tried deleting the accounts and setting them up again hoping I set it up wrong in the first place, but to no avail, it is still doing the same thing except this time I set the job account up first and then the personal business account and now everything goes from the job account! The only good thing is that the incoming messages work properly and they go into the correct inbox. Somebody please fix my outbox!

In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account. The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

I own a ipad mini and a iPod touch , both configured on the same apple account, how do I ensure that my data on the ipad mail,notes,pics etc is not visible/accessible on the ipod

I own a ipad mini and a iPod touch both configured on the same id
How do I ensure that my data on the ipad mail,notes,pics etc is not visible/accessible on the iPod touch when the iPod is connected to a wi fi connection

Mail: do not have the same account loaded onto the two devices.
Photos: go into Settings->Photos & Camera->and turn off photo stream.
everything else, sign out of the Apple ID on the device you dont want to be visible.
good luck

It is important to understand that Mail uses TWO servers, a Receiving Server and a Sending Server.
When you create a new mail message, or reply to a message, the Sender server is shown in the message composition window like this:
That drop-down window allows you to select which of the Sending Servers you previously set up should be used.
In general, once you choose a Sending server, its choice will "stick" for all future replies to messages from that Receiving mailbox.

Error when I try to open Firefox. Says Firefox is running in the background and cannot open. Suggests closing that window or restart system. This has happened several times recently. I reinstalled but am still getting the error. Any thoughts?

I am getting an Error when I try to open Firefox that Says Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system. This has happened several times recently. I deinstalld and reinstalled but am still getting the error. Any thoughts?

This happens to me as well. However, I have a shortcut on my desktop as well as my quick start bar. When this has happened to me, I can usually log back in without restarting, by using the shortcut on the desktop rather than the usual quick start bar.
I know this sounds weird, but it has worked for me about 80% of the time.

I have songs both purchased online and downloaded from cd's that itunes is unable to locate. What can I do to get them back and make sure it doesn't happen again as this is the second time this has happened?

Great, that's what I was looking for. Thanks for the quick response. I knew that that feature existed in this router, but I couldn't remember what it was called or where to find it.
The funny thing is, I recall distinctly setting up the DHCP reservation initially, but when I went to check it now, the reserved client list was empty. I have no idea how it could have become depopulated, thus opening the door for internal IP address reassignment of the Remote Desktop computer which led to the RDP ports no longer being forwarded to the right internal IP address and thus the failure of the Remote Desktop connectivity.
