I can't access my mail from the server!!!

I am having trouble retrieving mail....I click on "Get Mail" and nothing happens. When I select the inbox and Get Info, it shows that there are a number of new emails on the server, yet my Mail program does not want to retrieve them. I checked to see if my account was enabled (under Preferences) and it is....I don't understand what the problem is...this is happening in a networked office of 10 other macs, and only one other person is having this exact same problem. very weird. internet works fine.
any suggestions? I'm about to download a new mail program like entourage if this keeps up.
thanks,

POP account.
We own Entourage already, so that isn't a problem.
Right now we're using www.mail2web.com as a temporary solution, but that isn't really practical for a professional architecture firm where email records are essential to our business.
I would love to keep using Mail, I really have no idea how to fix this problem. I don't know why it is only happening to 2 of our 10 computers, there is no difference in the setup of any of them, and this started mid-morning, so I know that the users did nothing to the settings. It just stopped wanting to pick up mail from the server.
File size does not seem to matter, because one of the computer's mailboxes has about 10,000 emails saved, and the other has about 20, and they are showing the exact same behaviour. It is really strange!

  • Suddenly can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail

    Suddenly, I can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail (Version 2.1.1 (752.3)).
    For quite a few years I have been using Apple Mail to access my .mac email. As of last Friday, Mail stopped working. Nothing has changed (accept for the installation of the latest OS X security upgrade - SecUpd2006-008Univ.pkg).
    I can still access my .mac mail through the .mac web browser and I can still access it through SnapperMail on my Palm Treo 680. But, when I open Apple Mail on my MacBook, it does not do anything, just sits there. When I open the Activity Viewer window, 3 activities are going on:
    1. Opening Mailbox
    2. Synchronizing with Server (Connecting to...)
    3. Synchronizing with Server (Synchronizing with...)
    After a few minutes, the error triangle appears next to the Inbox and .Mac logos on the left hand panel.
    I have tried Apple Mail from several locations (different ISP / WiFi / LAN) over several days but get the same problem.
    Does anyone have ideas for a solution?
    Regards
    Peter

    Let’s first make sure that the update is installed properly, and post back with your observations when done.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the update that appears to not have been installed properly. You may also need to reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with your computer:
    About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
    Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
    Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
    Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
    Troubleshooting installation and software updates
    Installing software updates
    Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

    I have transferred my itunes library to an external drive. I then attached the external disk to a new computer. I can now access all songs from the new computer. But I can't access playlists. I can still  access all songs and playlists on the old computer

    If you right mouse and select Get info it will show you the Apple ID used to purchase these songs.
    Usually the name of an apple id is based on the email. So knowing that you may have forgotten the Apple ID password.

  • Since installing Photoshop CC I can't access Camera Raw from the program Bridge.

    Since installing Photoshop CC I can't access Camera Raw from the program Bridge.  When I try, I get a message that says, "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature."  Is Photoshop CC a qualifying product?  It has been opened a number of times, but it doesn't solve this problem.

    I am having this exact same problem and just upgraded to Windows 7...many people are saying to update the Plug In for Camera Raw to 4.6, but that is not working for me to see it in Bridge or Camera Raw.

    If you haven't already restart and test, if no joy then Repair Disk Permissions in Disk Utility. Open Disk Utilties (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility) select the internal HD, select the First Aid tab and then click Repair Disk Permissions. To be safe run Repair Disk Permissions 2x.

    After the i-cloud server issue yesterday, November 26, 2012, my i-cloud mail account on my Macbook Pro stopped receiving mail.  I changed some mail account settings to fix the issue, and was able to start receiving e-mails.  However, all of my historical e-mails are gone.  How do I retrieve all of my old e-mails from the server?

    What settings did you change, what were the changes, have you visited www.icloud.com to see what mail is actually there? and do you have a backup?

  • My @me emails don't push and I can't send @me mails  from the phone

    Hi all, for the at least the fourth time since I've had it my 3G iphone has stopped receiving push mobile me emails.
    I also can't send emails out from the @me address on the phone (although I can do perfectly from my MBP)
    Is this a common problem? is ther any fool proof way of fixing it? Are there any settings I should double check?
    The account was set up by my mac when I first synced it to the phone, I have reset all the mail account settings using the tick box in itunes.
    Any help appreciated!
    Cheers

    Sending has never been a problem with my MM account, which is a former .Mac account that I accessed with my first generation iPhone for over a year and for the last 6 months with my iPhone 3G. I prefer not accessing my MM account via push for email - automatically fetching every 30 minutes is fine with me as there is never any email sent to me so important that I need to be notified and the message delivered as soon as the message is recieved at the incoming mail server, so I can't comment on push access not working properly.
    I suggest deleting and manually recreating the account with the iPhone's mail client - disable including the account settings being transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process followed by deleting and manually re-creating the account with the iPhone's mail client.
