I can sync, but cannot send bluetooth files.

Sorry! I put this under bluetooth keyboard/mouse, it was meant for the general bluetooth forum. Sorry, again.
*Hi, I need help regarding my macbook's bluetooth. It will connect and recognize (sync) with my blackberry 8320 and other MacBooks, but it won't let me send files from my computer to them.*
*More specifically, I can bluetooth my blackberry's addressbook to my mac's addressbook, but CANNOT send a word document to my friend's Macbook. When I click the "send file" option under the bluetooth icon options in the top right hand corner of my mac.... a little "wisp" of a program that looks like it is trying to appear shows up. It looks like a program was supposed to open on my dock because a space for it is made, but it wasn't able to, and the space closes up again and nothing has happened.*
*I hope that this information helps someone who can in turn help me with my problem. Do I need an update or do I just need to uninstall and reinstall the whole bluetooth program?*
*I've already tried to update my bluetooth, but the same "wisp" shows up on my dock and nothing happens.*
*Please help! Thanks!*

You can't download and install Bluetooth separately - it's part of the OS.
Just a thought... Have you ever sent a file to another computer via Bluetooth before?
I've got a vague memory reading that the ability to Bluetooth files between two Macs (not between a Mac and a handheld device), may only be present in Mac OS X 10.5.x
BTW, wouldn't it be quicker to just email the file?

I can receive but cannot send e-mails!

I have a gmail account; I can read the incoming mails but cannot send outgoing mails. I get the following error message:
The SMTP server “smtp.gmail.com” rejected the password for user “XYZ"
XYZ = my name.
The password is correct because I can access my gmail account by using the relevant website.

In your server setytings do you have XYZ or [email protected] as the User Name? What Authentication: do you have?

E71 can receive, but cannot send email to POP mail...

I have an E71-1. I am in the UK and on '3'. Firmware version is 100.07.76 My problem is I cannot send email to my POP server. It goes to the Outbox then is reported as Queued. Trying to force a send does not have any effect. It would send emails until a few weeks ago.
I have re-set up the server information correctly in the 'phone. The server is sending and receiving emails correctly from Outlook. The E71 receives emails normally.
I have set up another POP account on a different domain on the 'phone and I have the same problem (but it uses the same server). Any help would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

ManCity69 does not have my problem, therefore I appreciate his attempt to help but his solution will not work for me. It is frustrating that I cannot make it work as he has. I want to use my own SMTP server but I can't. I believe my solution is the definitive one because it should work for everyone.
For anyone who has my problem, my posted solution should work. And I have looked at the emails I am sending using other email clients, and they are not arriving from "[email protected]', the 'From' and 'Reply To' are my normal email address, perhaps it is getting these from the pop3 settings, I don't know.
And as we are blundering around in the dark here trying to solve our own problems instead of getting high quality technical support from 3, we will probably never know.

Mac mail can recieve but cannot send?

I dowloaded the new ML OS on my macboon and Mac desktop, the desktop can send and recive but my Macbook cannot, it reads offline
I am with O2 Broadband, they have tried to fix the problem but said i need to contact apple
please advise asap

Yes, try changing it to 587 for starters. You should check optonline's online help to see if they recommend a different port for SMTP. You might also need to change your authentication settings.

I am having trouble with texting out. I can receive but cannot send. Any advice? Carrier is ok.

Using Mail to access my Gmail account, can receive but cannot send

I've checked, double checked, and triple checked to make sure the settings are what gmail says to set them to. I tried both port 25 and 587. I've tried deleting my inbox. I keep getting:
Error:
This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
The server "stmp.gmail.com" cannot be contacted on port 587.
What could I be doing wrong?

You need to make sure to go into the settings on your gmail account and under "Forwarding and POP" and check the box "Enable POP". Hope this helps.

Hi,
I am sorry to tell you that there is no such functionality. But of course, you could send URLs to the document locations via smartSync.

Read this if you can receive, but not send email

If you can receive, but cannot send email on your iPhone, try the following:
Add your outgoing Server Port Number to your "Outgoing Mail Server Name"
Example: smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number ( eg. 25 )
For specifics on how to do this, read on.
From the Home Screen, select:
Settings
*Mail,Contacts ...*
your email Account ex: [email protected]
Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server
Then select your outgoing mail server *SMTP smtp.example.com*
Select Primary Server smtp.example.com
Host Name change smtp.example.com to smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number.
This worked great, but unfortunately this helpful hint could not be found on the Apple support forum ... until now
Hope this helps!

This worked for me too! (iPhone 3G 2.02). Apple's once-over-lightly help with this issue is really lame. I thought better of Apple but they are turning into just another Dell or Microsoft.

Can receive text msgs but cannot send!?!?

A few days ago I began to be unable to send text msgs. Using iPhone 3G, it appears that the 'send' button is dithered 'greyed' out. I tap it but nothing happens. I can email, and obviously type text online (as here) but cannot 'send' text. I deleted MSG history, cleared cache, cleared recent calls, cleared email history to no avail. I can receive text just dandy but cannot send. Can anyone shed some light here or do I go see the 'geniuses' at the store and get a new phone. ( it seems every time I have a phone problem like this, they can't fix it they just give me another phone) Would really like to not have to go to the store. Thanks in advance for anyones help!

I would try a few basic things before scheduling an appointment with the Genius Bar.
1) Sync your iPhone with your computer. I have noticed that sometimes my phone will have a hiccup and when I sync it, whatever was wrong automatically rights itself.
2) Reset your iPhone holding down the "home" button and the Sleep/Power button on the top right side of the phone at the same time. It takes about 5-15 seconds and you want to make sure you hold down both buttons until you see the apple logo, ignore the slider.
3) Plug your iPhone into the computer and perform a phone restore. There are 2 options for this:
a- If you know when this problem started with your SMS messaging you can restore from a backup that was done on a previous sync. Chose a date prior to this issue starting and restore your phone to how it was on that date.
b- If you don't know when this issue began or restoring it to an earlier date does not fix the problem you can restore it to how it was when it came out of the box.
I hope that one of these things is able to solve your problem with SMS messaging. If none of these fixes the problem you should schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar and get this resolved with them. If you visit the Genius Bar make sure to sync your iPhone just prior to your appointment so if they need to replace the iPhone you don't lose any calendar entries, recently added contacts, pictures, etc.
Good luck!

Having problem with gmail smtp outgoing server. Since going to google 2-step, and entering 16-digit code in gmail account, I can receive mail on my iMac, but cannot send. I keep getting an error message that Mail "Cannot send message using Gmail (my assigned name) server." What do I do?

You might also try removing all gmail passwords from your keychain in Keychain Access. Then connect again and enter the password code given by Google.

User can receive email but cannot send

Hi,
I'm migrating a domain in an organization to another new domain. Now, we are migrating the workstations to the new domain. Users are not migrated, they are completely new in the new domain.
So, the problem is that we have a workstation in the new domain and the user from new domain logged on on this machine. The user has successfully configured is old exchange account in Outlook (Exchange server is still in the old domain) and can receive email,
but cannot send.
Can someone help please to find what is wrong?

Hi Silva,
Thank you for your question.
Is there NDR when you send email?
Which way outlook connect Exchange 2013?
Where is email which was sent? “sent item” or “Draft”?
Which user mailbox use when you configure profile? New domain user or old domain user?
We could create a trust between new domain and old domain:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779840(WS.10).aspx
We could ping old domain successfully on the new domain.
If we have created mailbox for new domain user on old exchange, we could refer to the following link:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998031(v=exchg.150).aspx?f=255&mspperror=-2147217396
In addition, we suggest we migrate user and Exchange to new domain as soon as possible.
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
Best Regard,
Jim

When I log in to my hotmail account on mu apple Ipad, I see inbox only and cannot see the word ''new'' to send emails. So I can read my emails but cannot send. Where is the feature to send emails.

QUESTION : when I log into hotmail on my new ipad, I only see inbox where I retrieve my messages but cannot see the word ''New'' which would
allow me to send emails the way it would be on a desk pc. So I can retrieve my messages but cannot send ???
Thank you in advance for help.

The icon in the upper right of the screen (assuming you are using the Mail app) that looks like a square with a pen is the new message button. Tap that to create a new mail message.
