HT2500 How do I get a return receipt with Mail?

I want to be sure that someone reads the e-mail I am sending. In my old system (Windows Outlook) I was able to check a box to get a return receipt. I've looked all over Mail, including the help system, and can find no instructions on this. I can't imagine this important feature has been omitted from the program, but I cannot find it anywhere!
Terrible fail, Apple help!
Anyone out there know how to do this? Thanks for the help!
Best Regards,
Jim

Austin,
Thanks for the info. I was vainly hoping Apple actually had the feature in the program. Sadly, this looks like a fail all the way 'round. I know a return receipt doesn't guarantee anything, but it at least gives me some level of knowing someone got the message. Sadly, Apple simply doesn't support the feature.
Fail, Apple. Fail!
Jim

It is possible, though not through the GUI. And as Dave points out, asking for a receipt does not mean that you will get one. The magic incantations for requesting receipts are detailed, amongst other places, in this article. It requires using the Terminal, and once set affects all messages you send until you unset it again.
If you search this forum for read receipts (the topic surfaces frequently) you should find a helpful Applescript for turning them on and off, to save using the terminal.

How can I obtain a return receipt using Mail?

I have never had to use a password as the administrator of my imac. I simply clicked OK without filling it in and it worked just fine. I downloaded Mavericks, and I was asked to enter the password as the administrator. I cannot do so. How do I fix this?

I'm confused. Your question has NOTHING to do with the subject title.
1) You cannot obtain a return receipt using Mail. That functionality does not exist.
2) If your admin password is blank, then just hit return. I cannot believe you have NEVER seen an administrator password prompt in normal use of the OS, unless you've only used OS X for an hour total.

How do i get a read receipt for email

How do I get a read receipt in mac e-mail?

There is a workaround, but it's not reliable, so I don't recommend it.
Email receipts are not a standard feature of email. Some email programs support it, some don't. If someone reads email online (ie, in webmail), no read receipt is created. Even if someone uses Outlook (which supports it), they have to turn the send-receipt feature on.
So if you don't receive a receipt, you can not, unfortunately, know for sure that the message was not read.

Is there any way I can get a return receipt for email when it is read?

Is there any way I can get a return receipt for my email after it is read by the party I send it to?

There is nothing even remotely reliable.
If a receipt is important to you, send a letter certified mail.
I have occasionally received an e-mail that requests a receipt prior to reading it. I do what everyone does, I delete the e-mail unread.

Hi ccharat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

How do I change the iTunes receipt e-mail address?

How do I change the iTunes receipt e-mail address? I keep getting receipts at my old e-mail address but want to change it to a new e-mail address. I changed the login name to my new e-mail address but I guess that only changes the login name, not the actual e-mail address in Apple's database.

I got some help from iTunes support, and it seems to work.
If you have a .Mac iTunes account, and you want to change the email address:
First, change your primary email address at myinfo.apple.com.
Then:
"Due to an issue with the store, you must follow the instructions below to change your email address of record:
1. Verify that you have an active network connection and open iTunes.
2. Click Music Store from the Source list.
3. Click on the Account button in the upper right corner. The Account field will either display your iTunes Music Store Account ID or Sign In.
4. Enter the account name and password of the iTunes Music Store account.
5. Click View Account
6. On the Account Information page click Edit Credit Card
7. Re-enter your billing address information, adding a space at the end of your address. This will force the account to refresh and apply your new email address.
Please rest assured that we are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it as soon as possible."

How do I get a white background with black lines and characters on
my screen.Contrary to what you might think, the linebIG2.setBackground(Color.white);does not give the buffered image a white background. The API docs
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/Graphics2D.html#setBackground(java.awt.Color)
say: "Setting the background color in the Graphics2D context only
affects the subsequent clearRect calls... " So adding a line to your
if blocks we getif (false) {
    bIG2.setBackground(Color.white);
    bIG2.clearRect(0, 0, buIm.getWidth(), buIm.getHeight());
if (false) {
    bIG2.setColor(Color.black);
}Changing the false to true results in a white background (and black
X and text).

Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent. This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account. Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

You have to look at the email protocol being used. the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider.

Based on what you've posted, your computer does not have the right tuner. You need a QAM tuner to record locals from FiOS, or a CableCard tuner to record all local and cable channels from FiOS.
QAM tuners to record local channels only
This requires Windows Vista or Windows 7
Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250
SiliconDust HDHomeRun (info on a sale)
CableCard tuner to record local and cable channels
This requires Windows 7 + one CableCard from Verizon for $3.99/mo
ATI TV Wonder Digital PC CableCard Tuner (records one channel at a time) -- $200-$250 on ebay
Ceton MOCUR tuner (records four channels at a time) -- coming in early 2010 for $400-$600
Make sure your computer has Windows 7 Home Premium (or better) installed. That's necessary to support CableCard tuners.

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
