HT1277 Mail won't come in unless I open and close mail each time! help!

Mail won't come in unless restart "mail" each time.  IMAP cox trying to setup new email addresses....connection doctor shows mail checked and 'light' is green but mail will not display until restarting.  I know there is a simple solution, just can't see what it is! Can anyone help? I tend to make things more difficult than I need to!

Okay, I solved the problem... FINALLY!!! Added "pop" to my email address when re-setting up account in Mail. This allowed me to set it up as a pop account and all works well!! Problem "Solved"!!

    On the left, you should have a list of keychains and categories. If not, Select Show Keychains from the View menu.
    Select the login keychain and All Items in the Category.
    In the search field, type something that will help find your  account keychains, like "gmail."
    Select the keychain for your email account password and delete it.

  • The Apple trackpad won't except the "pinch open and close" command on Firefox version 4. It is configured correctly in the system preferences. HELP!

    I am using the Apple trackpad with Firefox version 4. The trackpad won't "pinch open and close". It is configured correctly in the system preferences. It also worked in version 3. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Do the related browser.gesture prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page still have a value set for those gestures?
    Which Firefox function should be performed with those gestures?
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • HT5361 I can't shut down my computer because it says mail is open.  It says to close mail and continue shut down.  Problem is I can't open or close mail now.  Can't shut down my computer at all.  What can I do?

    If you cannot get mail to quit/force quit, you can always remove power from your Mac.
    NOTE: removing power is a bad idea, and can result in data loss, but sometimes it is the only thing left to do.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 to 10 seconds, and the Mac will power off.
    When you power back on, the Mac should reboot.

  • Reader opens and closes immediately by itself when try to open PDF from windows live mail or browser

    Hi,
    I'm having problems with acrobat xi since installing it on my windows 7 computer.
    Every time I try to open up a pdf file from windows live mail or a browser.. it opens and closes immediately.  The only way I can view it is if I save the file onto the computer, open up acrobat reader first then open up the file in there.
    How do I make it work properly again please?
    I've tried several things  so far like..
    -Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    -Disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    Please help me.  Thanks.

    How can I tell which one it is exactly?  I think it is Acrobat Reader.. 11.0.10...
    I can only open up a PDF if I save it to my computer and then open up the Acrobat program then open up a file using file > open.
    But if I try and view a pdf from an email attachment in Windows Live Mail.. or from a browser... it will open and close immediately.
    How do I fix this please?  thanks.

  • E-mail Attachments are only allowing me to open in e-mail as opposed to PDF, PPT, GIF or any app that is relevant to the attachment.

    E-mail Attachments are only allowing me to open in e-mail as opposed to PDF, PPT, GIF or any app that is relevant to the attachment.

    Meaning if you use the "tap and hold down on the attachment" you are not getting the "Open In" option? Or should we just keep guessing about what might be happening?
    If that is what is happening, deom the home screen .... quit the mail app completely in the recent tray by double tapping the home button to bring up the recents tray - and then tap and hold down on the mail app icon in the recent tray until it wiggles, then tap the red minus sign to quit the app. Restart the iPad and then try the "tap and hold down" on an attachment again.
    If you mean that something else is wrong or happening - share the information.

    Ipad: all my apple apps ( mail, safari, itunes..) fail to open and stay in background

    If you double click on the home button, that opens the recents tray and you can see all of the apps you have recently used. Click on one of those app icons when you have that tray open and the app should start up.
    If you just click the home button again when the recents tray is open, it will take you back to the home screen and you will be back where you started.
