I can download emails, but not open them.
I recently updated Mozilla Thunderbird to the latest version (31.5.0), and started having problems with three of my five email addresses. Specifically, I can download my messages to Thunderbird ... but not open them! When I click a message, it opens a new tab, which remains blank. I've given one of those tabs a half hour while working on other things, and the email never opened. Also, the program makes my laptop sound like it's running a marathon while it tries to simply open an email.
The two addresses that work fine are Gmail addresses. The three that are having trouble are specific to three domains that I own. (i.e. myname @ mywebsite.com).
I've searched for the answer, and haven't run across anyone else talking about this problem.
I was meaning to set up these addresses through Google Apps anyway, so I connected one of the problem accounts to Google. I can now handle those emails online at Gmail, but I like the Thunderbird interface better. I had hopes that running this addy through Gmail would magically make Thunderbird work again (since Thunderbird wasn't having any problems with my @gmail addresses), but no luck.
On top of all this, when I get fed up with Thunderbird and close it ... the program won't open again unless I restart my laptop.
Any ideas?
Just to add, you can also try:Main Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Email > Clear Data > You will likely need to setup the email again after doing this. What are your thoughts about this forum? Let us know by doing this short survey.

On a new computer, am trying to download/install photoshop elements 10, files are downloaded, but cannot open them, please try to explain if you can
you probably should have two files, an exe and a 7z file in the same directory. if so, click (or double click) the exe.
if that fails, what files(s) (name and extension) and file size(s) have you downloaded? -

i can send emails but not receive them. The sender address was rejected by the server.
Your mail server doesn't like the sender's address for some reason, perhaps because his mail server has been blacklisted for spamming.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
i assume the email account is your iCloud email account. have you tried turning off settings > iCloud > mail, restarting the phone and then re-enabling mail again. -
If I right click on the messenger icon on the toll bar it opens windows live in firefox by default. Then the page just hangs. I can see the emails but cannot open them. It works ok if I load in internet explorer browser.
That format is used primarily to record TV shows, which you are generally not allowed to edit. So it's unlikely you'll find a plug-in or converter.
Recapture using Premiere Pro or HDVSplit. Those files will work. -

Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
As for your issue, you need to provide more information. Firefox is not an email client. You may be having a problem with the email client you use, or with the site you are using to handle emails... -

After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?
My gmail, which is correctly configured for Mail with gmail SMTP and Google IMAP, works for awhile on Mail, which I leave open while working on other applications. But several times a day I get msg from Google: "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account" . . . and requiring me to verify my account details, re-enter passwords, confirm security settings (or change them from "disable" to "enable less secure methods" and so on). In Mail I also have tried "taking all accounts online", and re-entering my gmail password inside Mail account settings. These steps successfully re-set comms between gmail and Mail ... for awhile, then it happens again. Enough occurrences over a work day that I just quit Mail and revert to accessing gmail directly. Apple Care advisor and an Apple knowledge base article say that Apple can't deal with this, as gmail is third-party app, and they refer me to gmail, and so far I've found nothing helpful there.
From today I also have several instances of a window saying "Mail has unexpectedly closed" and asking me to Re-open it.
I also use Yahoo mail, which stops working with Mac Mail at the same time as gmail, but I do not receive notices to re-verify from Yahoo.
I recently upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite. The Mail problem happened occasionally with Mavericks but is far more frequent with Yosemite. -

A strange one-can recieve email, but not send
Okay, I have a powerbook G4 with an airport (graphite) and a siemens wireless gateway/modem provided by T**us
my mom's ISP. She can get on the internet okay (providing the signal doesn't get dropped, which it does) and downloads are fine, and she can recieve email, but not send. I have tried changing the smtp port to 587 from 25. Nothing from the activity monitor and no "whoosh". I have also tried setting up a new account (pop3) which the connection
doctor says is okay for sending and recieving. Any suggestions before I spend an hour or so with T**us' tech support
which for Macs isn't that good--frankly, I think the airport needs to be out of the picture---maybe it's fighting with the gateway??? :confused:
John BHi John: Did you get the "Send" issue figured out with your computer? If not, here are some things to check out. It sounds like you are using Telus. If so the settings for incoming and outgoing servers is as follows: Incoming > "pop.telus.net" Outgoing > "smtp.telus.net". Server port is 25, with no SSL enabled.
Good Luck

Missing Pictures.
Have made a rebbot from Time Machine, and now I lack a lot of pictures. Can see icons, but not enlarge them. Especially pictures where 2009 is included in the date is missing?
When I set up my desktop, I can find some of the pictures. Where do They hide, and what shall I do.
Have made back up, but unfortunately a little too late. What to do?
MacBook Pro 15 "late 2008, Processor 2.53 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB, Software Mac OS X 10.7.4 Lion (11E53).1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now? -

Why can I send but not receive them?
Macrumors posted a solution for this. I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
Here's what they said:
1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages
