I have many problems with my mail since I moved to mavericks. The filter is very sensitive, read mail appears as unread, I can't drag mail to the folders and more. I can't update the mail program as directed on this page, update says my system is updated

I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
Disk Utility can verify  my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
Good luck!

  • Hey Guys i have a problem with my mac since last month and it wont boot up it freezes in a grey apple logo and and spinning gear any body know how to fix this?

    Hey Guys i have a problem with my mac since last month and it wont boot up it freezes in a grey apple logo and and spinning gear any body know how to fix this?

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    How to back up and restore your files
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Before reconnecting an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode.* The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Post for further instructions.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see above for instructions.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it produces. Look for the line "Permissions repaired successfully" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.

  • HT1476 Dear all, I have a problem with charging. When i intend to charge my phone while its on, it does not charge. However, If i were to switch it off and put for charge, it charges. How do i fix this?Help.

    Dear all, I have a problem with charging. When i intend to charge my phone while its on, it does not charge. However, If i were to switch it off and put for charge, it charges. How do i fix this?Help.

    First, update iTunes, then connect the phone to the computer and do a restore. This will also get your iOS up to date. Your phone should operate correctly after doing this, if not, you will most likely need to have the phone serviced or replaced.

  • I would like to upgrade to the next step, but because I have many problems with the version 10.4.11, I'm worried that upgrading would create more problems.

    Due to a misunderstanding with [email protected] in September of 2010, many of my applications and important files were put into the trash during a cleaning.  The trash hadn't been deleted, so a CleanApp rep told me to drag my important files to a folder on my desktop.  They were unable to help me with anymore advice with the exception that if I followed the pathway of the application, I could manually restore it to its proper location. 
    This was asking a lot of me because I didn't have the experience or knowledge of undertaking such a massive restoration.  However, I did the best I could.  What had been put in the trash was not just a few files -- there were hundreds of files or apps that I discovered in the trash.  As I said, this was a misunderstanding.  I was left feeling devastated at what had happened. 
    Since then, my iMac Intel Core Duo has been running on its last legs.  I'm surprised I can even get to my email.  As far as using the software that I bought with my iMac, I can't.  I just do the basics.
    What I have been wanting to do is to upgrade to the next level.  However, I worry that if I upgrade a crippled OS X 10.4.11 Tiger, I would be creating more problems than what I already have.  Do you agree that an upgrade would make matters worse? 

    It won't necessarily make it worse, but may not make it better.  I am not familiar with the utility you usedm though anything that cleans or maintains your Mac should be avoided unless you know what you are doing and what it does.  Probably re-installing software from the official sources (download or CDs) is the best way to ensure missing parts are all replaced.
    If this is a core duo and not a core 2 duo then the highest you can go is Snow Leopard 10.6 Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).

  • My brother and I both have many problems with our playbooks.

    First of all my playbook used to connect to my computer and I soon put all my music and videos onto my tablet, then for some reason it wouldn't connect, it shows up in desktop manager as connecting, my playbook says it is connected, but then it says that desktop manager could connect to the device and it doesn't show up as a drive, I have updated it, deleted everything and started again but it still will not connect. My brothers playbook has the same problems as the above but some of the apps don't seem to work anymore, they open for about 1 second then shut down, I am very disappointed as I have only had these since Christmas, I cannot find any help anywhere, so I would appreciate it if you could give me some.
    Thanks Jack

    Jack,
    Here is a slightly different way to accomplish the same thing. Reboot your router before you start.
    1. Setup and turn on all your equipment to run on your wifi network . On the PlayBook you want to get its IP Address and write it down on a piece of paper. This number can vary each time so it is best to get the info just before you start. On the PlayBook go to the settings Gear icon (top right of screen) and tap Storage and Sharing. Toggle on the WiFi Sharing. Remember to toggle it off when you are finished or you can set a password to keep hackers out. Then go to the top of the left pane to "About". In the right pane tap the dropdown arrow and select " Network". Go to the line IPv4 and write the IP address on a piece of paper. It should look something like this 192.168.0.100.
    2. On your computer, click on Start, Click on My Computer. In the address line at the top of the page, clear it and enter two back slashes such as \\ followed by the IP Address of the PlayBook. So the line should look like \\192.168.0.100 and then press enter. In a short time it should read the directory of the PlayBook. Click Media and it will show all your subdirectories. At this point you can open the music directories of your computer and drag all the music you want over to the PlayBook. Place it in the Music directory. Pictures will go into the camera directory, movies to the video directory. Documents to your document directory.
    3. If you transfer any music, at this point you can go to the PlayBook and try playing some music to see if it works. I have converted all my music to MP3 format on my laptop and then transferred it by wifi to my PlayBook. It will only allow you to transfer 5000 selections if I remember correctly.
    4. You can exit your laptop and on your Playbook go to settings/ storage and Sharing and toggle off WiFi sharing or put a password on it.

  • Many problems with my Mac since I downloaded Adobe Illustrator.

    Hi,
    I have had my MacBook Pro for almost two years.  And have never experienced these problems.  Here are the specs in case you would like to know.
    - Mac OS X Version 10.7.5
    - Processor 2.3 GHz Intel COre i5
    - Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz ddR3
    - I also use an external monitor (HdTV via HdMI cable)
    - I have USB powered wireless speakers, and a USB Logitech mic attached as well via a 4 input USB hub (I keep all of these attached all the time because the cords drop below my desk and it is easier to leave them pluggled in.
    - Also I have a wireless Apple Blutooth keyboard that I have setup an use
    Here are all the idfferent problems I have been experiencing:
    For some reason, ever since I downloaded and installed Adobe Illustrator CS6, my computer has been having the following problems.
    Beeping constantly when I am in the program "finder"
    When I leave my browser (chrome), my mac continuously types the letter "d".  (Which I have experienced multiple times while typing this) [however it seems to work fine if I am typing while inside "chrome"
    Cursor continues to flash no matter what program I am in
    When I pull down a menu bar tab (regardless of what program), it highlights different buttons and flashes rapidly between them. (BUT I can still click the desired option without a problem)
    When a type the letter "d" in a word, the letter seems to not register as quickly as other letters.  For instance, when I type the word "idscussion" <-- that happens.  But if I type it more slowly like this --> discussion: it works absolutely fine.  Obviously this would be a problem because it is not my edsired typing s...p...e...e...d.
    When I right click, a menu will show up but then go away immediately (in other words it will flash)
    And I have checked for any crumbs under my keys but there is absolutely nothing because I have a keyboard cover that protects from things like that.
    I'm not sure if Illustrator has anything to od with this problem.  But the problem started the second after it was installed.  Maybe it's just coincidential.
    An dthank you so much!  I know this is a lot so I am very grateful to anyone who can tackle this problem. 
    I have also googled for other people with a similair problem but all the solutions that were given have not worked.  ie. unplugging my wireless mouse dongle.
    Thanks so much!
    Ben

    *…when I try to update it times out and won't update my software.*
    I assume you mean when running Software Update. If so, then you have network connection issues, and I recommend that you manually download the items SU lists from the Downloads link above and install them yourself.

  • I have a problem with my iPod

    I have a problem with my ipod, it's all started during my visit to my cousin's house. My songs suddenly skip around 200 songs within 40 second, and i can't play my songs and my video. I already Restore my iPod but nothing changes. it just keep skipping songs.
    any ideas what's wrong, I might send the ipod to the store that I buy.

    If you used iTunes or quicktime pro to convert-they do not like muxed files(audio/video are joined in one track). So you get video only.
    If you used something else-contact the program site for help since it is not an Apple product, the majority of us probably do not use it.
    If it was videora-dump it and get soemthing that actually works. Like mpeg streamclip and handbrake for DVD's.

  • HT3529 i have a problem with mms in my iPhone 5s when m trying to send MMS

    i have a problem with mms in my iPhone 5s when m trying to send MMS then a message appears on the screen 'cannot send messageMMS Messaging needs to be enabled to send this message' but in settings there is no setting available to inable MMS in message settings

    Had the same problem. Have you checked your Cellular Data Network MMS fields? You should write there your MMS settings (APN, username, password, mmsc, mms proxy and mms max message size). You can get the data from your carrier. After that you could need to restart iPhone.  Worked for me.

  • Hi! (iPhone4s) I have a problem with Mail.

    Hi all!
    I have a problem with Mail.
    I added my Gmail account. iPhone tells me that there are more than 42949670 mails. Obviously this number doesn't appear on the icon; I see it only when I open Mail. (Ah, I have already read all of these mails).
    The problem is that iPhone doesn't tell me when a new mail arrives; on the icon, the number in red doesn't appear.
    How can I set up my iPhone so that he tells me only how many new mails there are?
    Thank you!
    Ciao a tutti!
    Ho un problema con Mail.
    Ho aggiunto il mio account Gmail. L'iPhone mi dice che ci sono più di 42949670 emails. Ovviamente il numero non appare sull'icona; lo vedo solo quando apro Mail. Tutte queste emails le ho già lette.
    Il problema è che, quando arriva una nuova email, non mi compare il numero nel cerchietto rosso sull'icona.
    Come posso impostare l'iPhone in modo tale che non mi mostri il numero totale di emails che ho, ma solo quelle nuove da leggere?
    Grazie mille!

    i did both of them, but still the while sending the mail the diolog box is not showing up and also the spelling and grammer does not do the spelling check. 
    This problem just started for about 3 to 4 days now.  earlier it was working normally.

    I do not recommend reformatting your harddrive and reloading your software.  This is a Windows thing. On an older mac it may be difficult to find all your software again.
    Best to have greater than 2gig of free space.  Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

    Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things. Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
    Go after large files that you have created & know what they are.  Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

  • I have a problem with a few emails i wrote which were in the outbox. The outbox disappeared all of a sudden with my mails... However they were not sent since the email address was not correct (just 3 initials). Is there a way to get it back somewhere?

    Hello,
    I have a problem with a few emails i wrote which were in the outbox. The outbox disappeared all of a sudden with my mails... However they were not sent since the email address was not correct (just 3 initials). I was waiting to find out the correct email address of that person, put in in and then sen it...Is there a way to get it back somewhere on the ipad or in some cached folder?
    Many thanks for an answe to this.
    Swisslady2

    There is no cache where the emails would be stored on the iPad, but you could try quitting the mail app and then launch it again and see if the emails return.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Tap the home button. Then try mail again.

    I have a problem with Mail on my Macbook Pro. It is configurated with a gmail account, and now I can't access the mail. Is it possible to reboot the account or..? Please help:)

    The question mark means the computer cannot find a bootable volumes so can;t do anything, That, combined with annoying sounds, strongly suggests a failed hard drive.
    You can ask a "genius" at an Apple Rtail Store to test it but I'm pretty sure the drive is kaput. I'm hoping you had your data backed up.

  • Since installing mountain lion i have a problem with mail. when i delete a message close  and open mail the message has come back. please help!

    Since installing Mountain Lion i have a problem with Mail. I delete a number of messages from the same person but keep the newest message in my Inbox. I actually delete them from the Trash. The next time i open Mail the deleted messages are back again. Can anybody please help as this is getting annoying. Thanks in Anticipation.

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash.
    Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.
