How to get Mail on Mac to Check for mail when it's not open?

Hey,
I want Mail to check my emails whenever I get a new one but instead it just spams me with notifications when I open it... Please help!

Mail in OS X does not have the option of checking for new mail when it is closed, so you need to leave it open if you want to be notified of new emails when they arrive. However, this does not happen with Mail in iOS.

    how to get photos from mac to iPhone 6? when i try it just comes up iCloud instead of my photos

    Make sure Settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud Photo Library (Beta) = "Off"
    Then sync your iPhone using iTunes and make sure your sync settings for photos are set correctly in iTunes.

  • Just did a Mac update yesterday for Yosemite and I can not open a picture in elements with out it crashing.  Spent over 4 hours with Mac and it came down to an Adobe Issue with the New Photo which is replacing the I photo. Elements does not recognize it,

    Does anyone know a direct number for adobe that will not cost you to just ask about their program which will not work with a new mac update!

    You can do that in iPhoto, too. Just go to the iphoto prefs>advanced, and set PSE as your external editor. Note that the actual editor is not the file at the top level of Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements < version number >, but rather hidden away inside the Support Files folder:
    Then you just right the click the photo in iphoto and choose edit with external editor.
    If you have the new Photos app, you can't drag and drop, either.

    It sounds like you destroyed your boot partition and the recovery partition.  Depending on it's age, your MacBook Air might be able to do a net boot.  Plug and ethernet connection into it and attempt to boot.  If it has the right firmware, it will find a net boot configuration on the net and boot that.  Then it will give you a Recovery Partition like display and allow you to reinstall the OS X version that came with it.... assuming that it was Lion or ML.  If your computer came with Snow Leopard, then even the net boot won't work. 
    At that point you need a bootable USB Key, or an external DVD drive AND a Snow Leopard installation DVD. 
    An Apple Store, if there is one nearby, MAY be able to get you going again.  However, whatever is on the SSD now will be toast too.

  • I accidentally deleted my iMovie off my mac, anyone know how to get it back because it came for free and is now 15 dollars to buy back??? pls help

    i accidentally deleted my iMovie off my mac, anyone know how to get it back because it came for free and is now 15 dollars to buy back??? pls help

    If you mean you accidentally removed the icon for iMovie from the Dock (the array of icons at the bottom of the window), you can add it back easily.
    Open the Applications folder (if you open it from the Dock you may then need to click the Open in Finder icon), locate the iMovie program.
    Drag the icon for iMovie down to the Dock, somewhere between the icon for Finder and the dashed line toward the right.
    Wait for the icons at that spot to move aside, then drop it in.

  • DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE DOWNLOAD MAC OSX 10.7.0 BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRY I CANT FIND IT

    DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE DOWNLOAD MAC OSX 10.7.0 BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRY I CANT FIND IT

    AS mentioned, you need 10.6.8 & the App Store first, it's not available any other way, & 10.7 instead of 10.8 requires a call to Apple...
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

    How to get existing library imported to new itunes install, old library was not backed up or exported.  This occured due to Win 7 user profile was corrupt.

    I know that in Mac OS X one can pick which library to use by holding down the option key while starting iTunes. What's the Windows equivalent?
    Press the Shift key.
    WIll the fact that the music is now on another physical drive make a difference
    No.
    I know the previous install is at least 7.0, but I have no idea about which point release.
    Try checking the content of the iTunes Music Library.xml file.
    Finally, what's the expected behaviour (or required procedure) with respect to reauthorization of this computer to use the same ITMS-purchased files?
    You will be asked to reauthorize the computer.

    How can I restart my mac book pro 11 inches when it's on target disc mode

    Even if you could open Disk Utility you can't reformat a disk while you are booted from it. You will have to use the install CD. Ring the Apple Online Store at the number given at bottom left of this page and give them the serial number of your Mac. You should be able to get the Snow Leopard install disks for a nominal fee.

  • How to get / configure data in Tcode "MCTG" for "SIS: Sales Office Analysis Selection "?

    Hello SAP Guru's,
    How to get / configure data in Tcode "MCTG" for "SIS: Sales Office Analysis Selection "? We have implemented SAP ECC 6.0 EHP4 version in the organization. If anybody have any idea, need help .
    Thanks in Advance.

    Have a look at the following note:-
    Note 1573200 - How to restructure the statistic data of the sales information system (SIS)
    But before trying to carry out the process as detailed in the above note, first check with other SIS reports like MCTA etc., and no reports are showing correctly, then you can proceed.  Otherwise, you need to raise an OSS message with SAP.

  • How can get a database like ****.SQL file for test in sqlplus in oracle8i

    How can get a database like ****.SQL file for test in sqlplus in oracle8i,I am a beginner,thanks

    I'll give it a guess as to what it is you want but I'm afraid you'll have to give some more information to go on. I appreciate it's difficult for people who are beginners or who don't have English as their first language.
    Are you trying to run a SQL file? From SQL*plus you can do either of these:
    SQL> start my_file
    or
    SQL> @my_file
    N.B.: if th efile has a .sql extension you don't need to include it, but you do for any other file extension e.g.
    SQL> @myfile.run

  • How can i prevent my C3 to check for email automat...

    I have a C3 and am using it for email. I have set up my hotmail and google mail account.
    Every day at 9:00 my phone checks for email automatically That is no what I want. I only want it to check for messages when I ask for it.  i have a plan with a fixed amount per day, regardless how much I use it.
    So the automatic check for email says to my provider "you can charge this phone for the day". And that is not what I want if I do not intend to use the phone for the rest of the day.
    Where can I set that automatic checking for messages is turned off.
    Thanks,
    Herbert

    Which C3 to be clear,you could always just turn off the data,or go tru the email settings,there is where to change this.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
