    I am sorry but this isn't something that you can set. The system has timeouts built into the code.

  • Using multiple email accounts, smtp from provider, sender's address is the same for all email accounts

    Ok
    I'm sure this is an issue for many of us, but I cant find a solution for this on the net.
    So I had set up multiple email accounts. My main account is gmail, but I'm using several others. The smtp server had to be the same which was from my ISP for all email accounts (apart from gmail which has it's own).
    Now, when I send email from these accounts, the sender's address will always be ***@virginmedia.co.uk. Obviously, since thats what the smtp is for.
    But what if I want to send emails from these accounts and want to be the sender accordingly? like ***@yahoo.com or ***@freemail.com etc...
    Is there a way to get around these? If they dont have their own smtp servers? Or they can only be used to send emails through their web-based email page?
    Hope it makes sense, sorry for my crap english.
    Thanks
    Daniel

  • How can i change authentication settings for existing account?

    I have an email account from my work server that i have set up as a pop account in Mail. The problem is that the settings have recently been changed on the server and on other accounts but I cant find the same options in the preferences of mail.
    What I need to change is requiring authentication on the outgoing mail server (smtp) of username and password. I can find no checkox in preferences enabling this. Our internet provider suggested creating a new account, as in account setup it is possible to check a box for requiring authentication.
    If at all possible i would like to keep my existing account.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to how i can do this?
    Thankyou!

    In Mail, Preferences>Accounts. Select the account in question. At the bottom of the pane on the right of the list of accounts you will see 'Outgoing mail server (SMTP)' where your server details can be entered: underneath this is a button called 'server settings'. Click on this and you can set 'Authentication' to 'password' if neccesary, and enter/change the password for outgoing mail.

  • How do I change the settings for security on a specific website?

    I was on the CVS Photo website and I went to the Image Upload page and a box popped up asking for permission to access my computer files for the upload (I think that is what it said.) I accidentally hit Deny and now I can't upload my pictures. I don't know how to undo what I did or change the settings. Please help!

    You can check the about:config page for a capability.principal pref related to that website.
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>capability.principal</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset a <i>capability.principal</i> capability.principal that is related to that website via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    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 />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

  • How to save changes to settings for photos in an iPhoto slideshow?

    How can I save the settings to individual slides in an iPhoto slideshow?  I followed the instructions for changing the zoom and pan, but when I exit iPhoto an relaunch it the settings revert to some default.  Help!

    Try this:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • How do you change default settings for Pdf document viewing?

    Somehow the default setting for all my PDF documents and photos is now ColorSync. How do I change the main default setting, which I think should be Safari?

    The default is Preview, and you change it thus:
    Select a pdf file, rightclick and select 'Get Info', in the pane that opens scroll down to the section marked 'Open With', select Preview and check the box to 'Change All'

  • HT201493 How do you change the settings for find my friends to use my contacts. When I signed in I selected do not allow iPhone to use my contacts and now all the names are in e mail format.

    When I opened the app I selected do not allow, to use my contacts, but now realise I should have allowed it. I have uninstalled and reloaded it, but it will not ask me to use my contacts again. Any ideas as now I see e mail names and not just the persons name.

    If you go to Settings > Notes > Default Account you will see "On My iPhone" as the default account and the only choice if you have not enabled syncing Notes in Settings >iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. If you have enabled syncing you can still select "On My iPhone" as the default account. When you are in the Notes app you won't see any accounts listed if you have not enabled syncing because they are all in the On My iPhone account and that is the only place possible. It is not a folder that you create.

  • How do I change the settings so that when I make a phone call I can make my screen go black and not mute the call with my cheek or it tries to face time my call. I need to change the sensitivity or something! Please help!!

    How do I change my phone settings on my iPhone 5 so that when I make a phone call while I am on the phone call my phone stays lit up. It never goes black so I am constantly hitting other buttons while I try to talk like mute or FaceTime or speaker! Please help this is so annoying! It's like all I need to do is fix the settings somehow and I have gone through all of my settings and I can't find where to do this!

    Is the phone in a case?  Try taking it out of the case.  If that doesn't work, then your proximity sensor is broken.  You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.
