I have 3 mail accounts in apple mail. One of them has had the spinning ball going for several days and I cannot receive mail in this account or delete messages etc. For some reason, I CAN send mail on Apple mail using this account, although it takes several minutes. I can receive mail in this account on my iPad and by signing into aol on safari and internet explorer on my office PC. It's obviously a glitch in Apple's Mail. I've deleted this account and reopened it in Mail on my Mac Pro with no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, this E amil account is major to my business.

sounds like a corrupt database or index
the glitch is your home folder and mail folder, esp look at syncservices
I'd post in the mail or Lion forum where you will find similar issues being discussed.

And the spinning ball goes round and round...

Wow, all I'm doing is reviewing photos one by one in the library module using my arrow keys to move forward and back. All previews are previously built 1:1. I'm not doing anything in the develop module (enough of the slowness in this module has already been reported in these and many other forums.) I am trying to move through hundreds of images rapidly, marking picks, but I can only get so far before the spinning ball makes an appearance, giving me a signal to sit back and sip some coffee while I watch it spin for a minute or so. I even had LR crash - close unexpectedly - a couple of times. This was never an issue in LR1.
If someone has figured out how to optimize a Mac, step by step, for LR2 I'd love to hear about it because I get the feeling it's going to be a long time before Adobe addresses the many issues that so many are complaining about.
I'm using an iMac, Intel Core 2 Due, 2.16 GHz, 3GB ram. No other application is running.
No, it's not the hottest computer on the market but it ran LR1 just fine. Between this issue and the develop module issues, the frustrations are beginning to mount.

I'm taking a little break because I'm getting tired of watching my spinning ball. I have just uploaded a 450 shot job, created 1:1 previews, and now going through my rating system. I'm in Library mode with 1:1 previews. I first click through the photos, one at a time, and flag the obvious bad shots for deletion. After that I go through the images, again one at a time, and rank any acceptable with 1-star, I filter on the 1-star and repeat the process with 2-stars. This continues until I narrow my selections down to 4-stars. The problem is that I keep getting my spinning ball. I am not doing anything in the develop module. I'm just going from photo to photo looking at images and applying star rankings.
The most frustrating is that at times I can pause on a photo to study it for maybe a minute. The computer is not doing anything, just sitting there while I examine the photo no zooming, no editing, nothing. I then click on the next image and bam, spinning ball. Haven't timed it but would guess close to a minute or more of spinning. Once it stops I can then proceed to click at a rapid pace, no problem for a while. I've tried counting the number of moves before the ball reappears but it's inconsistent. And yes, I've tried making just about ever optimization move I can find in this forum.
I don't think there is a solution until Adobe address the problem so I'm really just venting. What a pain. I really like LR, I just want it to work better. Please Adobe, no new features for now, just work on optimizing what we have. This is like a great car in badly need of a major tune up.

TS2998 Help!!! All of a sudden my "send" in Mail is greyed out and i cannot send emails. Any ideas, I can receive them ok.

Can anyone help me......... All of a sudden my "send" in Mail is greyed out, I can receive mail but cannot reply or send a new mail message.

Austin,
Connection doctor says all accounts are connected.
I have two email accounts setup and my business one appears to be ok (can reply and send ok).
The main account has the "send" button greyed out.
And now my F4 button does not open the set apps e.g. calender/calculator etc instead it opens "manage widgets"
This all seems to have started since the system updated OSX to 10.6.8

After several fixes, I still cannot send emails while on Wi-Fi. Can you explain why this is?

I have read several community posts of Iphone users who have had the same issues I have, which is emails sent while on WI-Fi do not send. The only why to ensure that the messages are sent I have to turn off the Wi-Fi, which works but is very inconvenient. I spend much of my time not at my desktop and responding to emails. My employer has Wi-Fi available and I don't have to discuss why using Wi-Fi is advantageous. I have tried (unseccessfully) all the troubleshooting suggestions that I have read on Apple support communities. It sounds like only owners of Iphone 5 have these issues. My wife has a refurbished Iphone 4s and she has never complained about sending emails. I want Apple to address this widely shared concern and a resolution that does not require me to turn off my Wi-Fi every time I want to quickly reply to an email.

There can be a multitude of reasons why you can not send emails while on wifi
Particularly if your not on your own wifi
Business wifi may have blocked connections to external mail servers
If your using your ISP for mail they may be blocking connection attempts from outside their IP address, range some require authentication to send
You"ll need to speak to both of your ISP and the network admin of the wifi your using
When trying to use email and tell them what you're trying to do and what happens
Since you can send mail while not on wifi
Your first port of call should be the network admin of the wifi your trying to use
If it's a business you'll might find external email servers have been blocked
It's not apples fault you can't send emails
Restrictions can set any network to stop users doing things the network owners don't want the users to do
there is nothing apple can possibly do about it nor would they want to

I get the spinning ball often, even in the middle of typing this.

I have Firefox 3.6.17, and for the last few months I have been getting the spinning ball (waiting) for almost everything I do. Even typing this I have gotten it twice. I have cleared the cache and history and am at my wit's end. I can keep typing when the ball appears and the words will appear all at once. It spins for about 5 seconds, then I get what I clicked on. Make that four times on this note.

If you are using Safari, try emptying the cache. Press Command + Option + E then quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click Details then remove all the cookies for the sites where you see the spinning ball.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari and try one of those sites again.

Ipod 16g 2nd gen. had the waiting circle running for ages. the unit got hot. i reset it and the circumstances did not change. i also did a dfu mode. which stopped the spinning circle, but now the ipod is stuck on the apple. slide to unlock is stuck now.

ipod 16g, 2nd gen had the spinning circle running for hours. the unit also go very hot.
i performed a reset twice as well as a brand new reset to factory settings. I still got the spinning circle.
i also did a DFU. brought me to the apple sign, followed by a spinning circle and a 'slide to unlock' page that will not slide.
please advise.

Likely a batter problem since high temperatures destroy a battery. I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to see what they say. It is free except for your time.

I have owned my MacBook Pro for several months. Initially, I did not have any problems. Now I have a problem with Yahoo Mail. I can open my account, but when I try to get at my mail, 2 out of 3 times I get the spinning ball that never stops. Now what?

I have owned my MacBook Pro for several months without having any problems with it. Recently I am having trouble with my Yahoo Mail. I can open it fine, but 2 out of 3 times when I try to actually open a message, the spinning ball comes on the screen and does not stop. Sometimes, I can log out or force quit and come back in to my account and use it. Other times, I run into the same problem. Any suggestions?

My new yahoo account nestles comfortably in iCloud on the mine iPad.
No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.

RE case number 185479759 which was closed today (thought problem was fixed but still persists). LR keeps crashing and no one seems to be able to figure out why. Am getting really frustrated here as I have been dealing with this with Adobe for several days

Come on now, how many times do I have to type the above question. I need help getting my LR5 to work. It keeps crashing. Have been working with Adobe for this problem for several days now and still no resolution.

You're not talking to Adobe here - this is a user-to-user forum.
If you want help here, you'll need to explain exactly what the problem is, and include details like your OS, your camera, what you're doing when the crash happens, etc.
FAQ: What information should I provide when posting, or What do you need to know to solve my issue?

I have 2 .mac email accounts, one of them has a sub-address. Can I keep all 3 .mac email addresses in iCloud?

You will need to migrate each account seperately using the Move website, the alias will also be migrated to iCloud with whichever account it is under (the only problem with aliases, occurs when you have more than 3 in an account)
When you log into iCloud on the computer running Lion, iCloud will update your mail accounts for you, on the computers running Snow Leopard you will have to set up the mail accounts manually. Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
You won't be able to use your iCloud contacts and calendars on the computers running snow leopard with Address book and iCal, but can access them from the web interface at iCloud.com

Downloaded an E.P. and all of the songs play fine except one which skips itself. The play count goes up and if I click later in the song it will play, but it doesn't play automatically, how do i fix this?

many thanks.
I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

I have a word document that keeps stalling with the spinning ball sign - how can I stop this?

Have a 2009 Macbook Air. Never given me any trouble before. But I am working on a long word document (docx) - 200 pages of text - and after 5 minutes of working on it it starts to stall and the spinning ball comes up every time I try to type or edit. I have tried resaving it as a doc. I have transferred it to my main IMac where the same problem occurs. No other word documents are doing this. This document is a novel, three years in the making, which is due to go off to publishers in a few weeks time so I am rather worried that it is going to be unrescuable. any suggestions?
I have a time machine and so on so it is all backed up, but i want to be able to work on it!
Please help!?

Try this.
Open the document and select and copy a few pages, say ten pages.
Open a new blank document and paste the pages you copied into that.
Save it with a new name.
Work on those new pages to see if the problem has disappeared.
If this helps, continue breaking up the large file in to smaller chunks and working on them
You can of course later reverse the process and merge the files into one new one.
This suggestion is based on my experiences with large Word files. Breaking it up in to smaller chunks does two things. First, if there is any corruption in the old file, the new copies might escape that. Second, the Mac is faster handling the smaller chunks.

Mail and the spinning ball

Since updating to 10.5.7 I keep getting the spinning ball on opening Mail. And also getting warning sign that syncserver is not connecting. tried trashing pref and repairing permissions but still getting the spinning ball. Anyone else getting the same problem?

I don't get the spinning ball, but I get the incoming mail symbol that spins and spins. I don't understand it as the settings are all the same on my computer and my husband's computer but he has had absoultely NO problems with his mail. My mail goes OUT and one or two pieces of mail come in, then it just spins and then my computer won't shut down unless I manually turn it off because mail has locked it up somehow. Other applications continue to work, but I can't do a force quit on mail...it just doesn't work. My husband put Thunderbird on my computer he was so frustrated with trying to fix the darn problem, but I hate Thunderbird!!! HELP

I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

No... do not move programs.
About the iTunes library files
Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
