I can't set up Thunderbird to link to my gmail pop account.

I downloaded Thunderbird to assist me in saving materials from my university email, which will cease to exist in the coming months. I'm having difficulty, however, in linking my university email to Thunderbird. I suspect the issue is it is a pop account serviced by gmail rather than a regular, run-of-the-mill gmail account. Please help me! Thanks.

Just select POP at the protocol instead of IMAP when adding the account.
If it still will not set up, get the server settings that need to be used and add the account manually.

A friend gave me a 1st gen Apple TV. Can I set it up on my TV with my iTunes account or is it forever linked to his account?

A friend gave me a 1st generation Apple TV. Can I set it up on my TV with my iTunes account or is it forever linked to his account?

In Setting>Computers on AppleTV remove any Computers (known iTunes libraries) listed - the top one is the 'sync' library and will let you sync your iTunes stuff (720pHD max @ 24fps) to it - deleting the existing entry will delete all media on AppleTV. Other libraries are 'streaming only' requiring iTunes to be running on the LAN. When you choose Add Library/Computer (I forget the exact text) you will be asked to enter a code in iTunes to 'pair' them.

How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

Hi,
I installed iCloud PC control panel. I tried to sync my contacts and calendars from Outlook (2007) to the cloud but I gets this message: "Add an e-mail account to Outlook Before setting up iCloud". I have an Hotmail account synced up into my Outlook via Outlook Connector. Can iCloud sync with Hotmail accounts?
What should I do to get my calendars and contacts synchronize to the cloud. Does Outlook 2007 can be synced by the cloud too?

I found a way to fix this, it did the trick for me:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3109623
All you have to do is include a new e-mail account [email protected] (set it as a default) on Outlook with the options that are showed in the thread I linked and you should have the calendars and tasks syncronised. It works perfectly with ipod touch, ipad and Outlook 2010 on windows 7.

Can i set a rule to forward email to hpe print account ?redirectreason=notregistered

Can i set a outlook rule to forward specific emails to an hpe print email address ?

CSI,
The spam filters on ePrint are pretty stringent. Here is a list of things that will possibly cause ePrint jobs to be discarded as spam.
1. Blank subject lines
2. "FW:" or random characters and numbers in the subject line.
3. Small graphics or URL links in the body.
4. Photos that do not meet the 100 dpi resolution attached to the email.
5. Auto-signatures in the body of the email.
You can try and set a rule to forward to ePrint, however it may not work. Your biggest enemy will be the 2nd one on the list above.
Make it easier for other people to find solutions, by marking my answer with \'Accept as Solution\' if it solves your problem.

Can I backup my phone but link to a new icloud account

I want to backup my iphone 6 from a previous iphone 5. That phone was linked to a different icloud account, will I be linked to the old Icloud account or can I use my new one ?

Unfortunately you will not be able to transfer them or essentially merge the account. The purchases are locked to that specific account. Best thing to do is just remain with one account because things can get confusing. Good luck!

I can't set up my auto-pay directly to my bank account.

I have a prepaid phone which has the option of setting up auto-pay. However, when I tried to set up auto-pay (on the phone and online), it only gives me the option of using a credit card -when what I want is to hook it up to my checking account. I tried contacting customer service, but all they had to say was that I "should be able to," at which point they ended the chat session. So I decided to ask here instead.

Can you set it up from the bank account end? Use the bill pay and send it from the bank account to Verizon, rather than initiating it from Verizon's end? Would that satisfy the electronic debit? I don't see why using your debit card on a recurring transaction wouldn't qualify as well.

Thunderbird doesnt let me add Gmail business account.

I've tried everything. Gmail Account Permissions "Apps and Websites" is blank.
Less Secure Apps = This setting is not available for Google Apps accounts.
Google themselves say that Some examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards include: Thunderbird
I've even tried this and it did Not work:
Go to https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha on your device's browser.
Enter your username and password, then type the letters on the screen.
Go back to the app and try signing in again.
All i want is to migrate my work email from Mozilla Thunderbird to Gmail. Any information to assist me is most appreciated.
Thanks

I suspect that other regulars here, like me, wince at phrases such as "thunderbird emails" and "thunderbird account".
We sort of know what you mean, but often it signals some confusion in the mind of the poster. And that doesn't usually augur well for a smooth discussion. ;-)
Thunderbird doesn't offer or provide email accounts, so I take it you have an arrangement for your business's email service that you operate via Thunderbird. It may help if you were to tell us who provided your account.
And now, are you setting up afresh with a new email address, or are you attempting or intending to transfer the working email address/account from one provider to another?
Here at my place of work I use a business gmail account. (Well, I think that's what it is; it is hosted by gmail, but uses our own domain, and it's very handy to give visitors and subcontractors temporary email accounts whilst they're here, given that we have a finite (i.e. fixed and limited) number of licences on the works Exchange server.)
The Gmail account is useful as a fallback if/when our own internally run server falls over. And it's a useful resource, in the cloud, so to speak, for stuff that I might like to look at when away from the company LAN.
But it was set up long ago enough that I can't remember any details about it. I do recall needing to acquire a temporary passkey to "authenticate" it in Thunderbird.
Bottom line: if what I am using is a gmail business account, then it can and ought to work in Thunderbird; the main hurdle is the two-step authentication process. It's possible that google have "improved" it (read: fubar) but we are still adding users to it here, though, admittedly, most will be using Outlook and a few odd souls seem to actually like the web interface.

Can't add Gmail (POP) accounts to Apple Mail

I noticed a day before the 10.5.7 update that my existing gmail accounts in Mail suddenly stopped retrieving mail, giving "a server not responding" message. So I delete the accounts and try to add again. And again, pop server not responding. This was all on 10.5.6 mind you, and yes all my settings are correct under google settings.
10.5.7 was released and I seen in the notes that there was a problem with gmail and Apple Mail in the past (no problems for me but I only used POP). So, like always, I repair disk permissions, download the full combo update and install. After install, like always, I repair disk permissions again before doing anything else.
Same thing. Can't add my POP gmail accounts to Apple Mail. POP server not responding

I have just experienced the same issue with a gmail account I setup in Mail when I bought my first Macbook 2 years ago. I've never had any problems with the gmail POP server before, until last night July 26th 09. Then suddenly a couple of minutes after successfully retrieving the emails as usual, it tried again and failed, asking for the password. I entered the password, but still came back saying POP server not responding.
I did some updates yesterday, but nothing more than the one for the pro apps. I'm completely up to date with all Leopard updates. Also I've double checked that all is working with my gmail account and settings; no change in settings or password were made.
Do I need to delete the account in Mail and recreate it from scratch, then, is that the only answer when this error seems to occur out of the blue?

How Can I set up Thunderbird for multiple email addresses

I am using Eudora 7 to handle 6 email accounts on a Windows XP SP3 machine. I want to install Thunderbird on the same machine and import the email addresses. I have Eudora setup to store the data files for each email address in a different data directory. This allows me to have a different icon on the desktop for each email account. Clicking on an icon starts Eudora with the email address data stored in a specific directory.
What I don't know is how to have Thunderbird import the different email addresses from Eudora to Thunderbird and how to keep the individual email address data separate in Thunderbird.
Any help would be appreciated.

I never used Eudora, so I can't tell much about it. In any case, I believe it's dead.
Wrt multiple accounts in Thunderbird, there isn't much you can do wrong. Simply run the new account wizard and set-up the accounts you want (one at a time).
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatic-account-configuration
If any of your accounts are POP ones, make sure not to enable Global Inbox to keep them separate.

How can I set up Thunderbird so it sees my custom folders?

It only shows me Inbox, Outbox, Trash and Sent items.
For example If I create a folder and move some of my mails there, the client will stop showing me anything. As if that mail is gone, but if I actually log in to my email using a browser it would all be there.
Any help is appreciated :)

Do you have a Pop or IMAP mail account?
Pop mail accounts can only connect to server and see the Inbox. Emails are downloaded from server Inbox to mail account Inbox.
re: 'For example If I create a folder and move some of my mails there,'
Did you create the folder in Thunderbird or in webmail?
Do you have this setting? View > Folders > All

Can I Set Up an iWeb Link To Play Audio?

I'd like to be able to set up a hyperlink on my web site using iWeb so that a viewer clicking this link will be able to hear an extended narration (just audio not video). Can I do that?
Also, rather than move some photos from my desktop into iPhoto and then into iWeb as I construct my site, can I just drag the photos directly into iWeb?
Dave

There are several ways to add audio to a web page.
1 - just drag the audio file onto the page and place where you want it. Ignore the "Drag photo here" area as it doesn't show unless you put a photo in it.
2 - upload the audio track to the server and link to it there with a flash player or HTML5 audio player. This demo page has some examples of flash players: Audio Players. Other mehtods are demonstrated in this test page: More Audio
3 - Roddy's iWeb for Musicians site has the more comprehensive tutorials on audio in iWeb. Go to his page HTML5 Players and Music Players.
Yes you can just drag a photo onto an iWeb page from the Finder, resize and position it where you'd like. Remember that some themes add a frame to photos added that way and if you want to remove the frame or change it use the Inspector/Graphic pane to change or remove it:

I can't set up thunderbird to save received e-mail messages.

In previous versions of Thunderbird I could set up folders and give them names. Once I did that I could save e-mails that came in. In the latest version, I find that task can't be done. Can anyone explain why? I am so frustrated I am about to dump Thunderbird.

How can I set a graphic to link to a specific detail region?

I have a master/detail region set. Works fine. I'd like to place a graphic below the menu(master region) that would link to a certain detail region. I'm using HTML data set. Any thoughts?

Basically, the menu and description is created via Master/Detail regions. "Partnership Opportunity" links to its designated data description. BUT what I also want to do is link the graphic below the menu to the "Partnership Opportunity" designated data description. So, whether you click on "Partnership Opportunity" in the menu or click on the graphic it will open the same data description. It's all within a local testing environment. See attached.

Can't set up the D-Link DWA-525 WiFi adapter (PCI) with netcfg

Hi!
I'm having a lot of problems with installing Arch on my brand new PC...
Is D-Link DWA-525 supported?
It uses WPA; i'm trying to get it to run with netcfg, tried both directly and via wpa_supplicant. The results aren't even consistent.
Without wpa_supplicant, even though the configuration file doesn't say to use wpa_supplicant, it comes back with an error "wpa_supplicant wasn't started, possibly bad configuration" (or something like this; sorry, i've rebooted to Windows now and don't remember what it said exactly)
With wpa_supplicant, sometimes after "/etc/rc.d/net-profiles restart" it gets back with simply "WPA authentication/association failed," sometimes it prints out several screens of some complaints and hangs.
Of course i might use something different than netcfg, but it seemed like the most powerful solution.
If you would advise what steps i should take to pinpoint the problem and fix it, this will be very much appreciated!!
P. S. The config files are practically identical to the example ones and the ones in the Wiki, only the ssid and key are changed to appropriate ones. If it's necessary, i will reboot to Arch, write them down and post them here, of course.

How can I set a time limit... on my own account?

I've been getting sick of staying up until 3 AM then waking up at 11 AM every day. I think the best way to solve it without sheer will is to just set a time limit on my computer. I know you can do it in Parental Controls, but it only lets you to it to non-admin accounts that aren't yours. Is there a way to set them for your own account via some sort of workaround? Thanks.

Hello Chuck67322,
Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities.
You could schedule you computer to shut down through the Energy Saver preference. See this article to find out how:
