I have a problem sending mail via smtp. I use a satellite system and the average return time for a ping is 675ms. Is this a problem with mail? If so can I change Mail to accept it. The problem also exists with Lion and on both my MacPro and my wife's Imac. I also see my mailboxes randomly disconnecting and reconnecting. Any other ideas of a possible cause?

I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
Now all is working.
Thanks,
B.

  • I have iphoto 6 on a 10.4.11 OSX, an old system and am unable to uopload for a book purchase unless I have iPhoto 11. Will my OS take iphoto 11? e

    I have an old Mac on OSX10.4.11 with iPhoto6. When attempting an upload for an album purchase Apple tells me I must upgrade yto iPhoto 11. Will this work on such an old Mac?

    The free MacTracker application can tell you what is the newest version of OS X you rMac can use. Then you'll know how far you can upgrade iPhoto in order to order that book. 
    Be aware that the theme you're using may not be available in later versions of iPhoto.

  • Whats the average charging time for the ipad air?

    just charged a new ipad air for the first time and it took 11 hours, is that normal???

    You can increase the speed of the charge if you turn off all Blue Tooth and Wi-fy and leave it in Air plane mode. It really made a huge difference in my charging time, even if I was reading a book on it. If you don't need Blue Tooth leave it off.

    I send mail via SMTP server with Hebrew text, and I get it gibberish on my iphone

    What mail program from what kind of computer are you sending your email?  It sounds like an encoding problem that would have to be solved on the sending end.   If you want, send me an example of the kind of email which arrives as gibberish on your iphone (tom at bluesky dot org).

  • Send a mail via smtp without authentication

    Hello,
    I'm developping a web application that reports errors or 'strange situations' to the application'a admin with an e-mail message to the address entered in a sort of wizard. I've read some tutorials and actually I'm able to send mail via smtp only with authentication, withouth i get this error: "530, Address requires authentication". How can i send mails without authentication?

    Normally the administrator of those forums is also the administrator of the SMTP server they use, so they configure the server to accept requests from the forum software without authentication.
    If you are running your own SMTP server you can do that too. If you are using somebody else's server you will have to follow their rules. You could always contact the administrator and ask whether you could be made exempt from authentication...

  • The problem is with the new operating system  and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.   From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

    The problem is with the new operating system  and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
    From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
    Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • HT4864 Problems sending email via icloud

    I am having problems sending email via my iCloud through Mail or Sparrow, I have checked the mail server settings and they are correct based on what is described on the Apple site.  Anyone else having this problem?

    For some reason, iCloud smtp servers haven't been working well over the last couple weeks. I have experienced this twice, in as many weeks. Very frustrating as I send numerous emails on a daily basis via my iCloud account. If I login through the browser, the sending works fine, but via Mac Mail...no go. Very irritating to say the least. Apple, please fix this fluctuation problem.

  • HELP! HELP! Please.... Cannot send email via SMTP....

    Hi,
    Not posted here before but this really is a last ditch attempt to get my email working. I'm at my wits end with this.
    I reported a problem that I could not send mail via SMTP (with Outlook) last December (2014). I kept getting a message from the mail server stating "421 Too many messages". They guys on live chat tried for an hour to get it working, finally gave up and told me to use WebMail instead. Ok, that worked but... in January that went off completely and I found that BT had removed my mailbox from the system!
    It's now 19th March 2015. Today, (yes 3 months later) my mailbox finally came back online. At last I could catch up on all my lost messages, lost business and everything else that was important (yep all my old messages were THERE!).
    BT support have been useless, in fact, more than useless. I'm abroad working at the moment and I've had to make many international calls to the UK to bitterly complain about this. They won't call me - they will only call a UK number so all the cost, plus the lost business and everything else is at my cost. So, webmail is working. I went to set up my Ouitlook client and guess what...?  I have the SAME error message. The client is connecting but error is the same. 
    421 is a SERVER message which is telling me that the BT Mail server is not configured for enough connections. Either that or it's severely overloaded. This is BT's problem - not mine but all BT have done is fob me off with excuses for 3 months and now I'm back to square one. the support guys have no idea what this message means.
    Today I was told that if I wanted it sorted I had to pay for BT Expert help.
    What???  I don't need an "expert". I just want them to configure their server properly!
    Can ANYONE - anyone from BT please, please help me to get this sorted. I'm tearing my hair out and as you may have guessed by now I'm also very angry about this.
    I've tried making an online official complaint but that came to nothing as they told me as it was Outlook they couldn't help. Maybe it was set up wrong. It's not set up wrong - I'm a Network Engineer!!  I've set up hundreds of Outlook accounts! The SERVER error message is like a big flashing sign stating that it's a BT issue. Why will no-one listen to me???  Why will they do nothing at all?  This problem has been posted many times. Why is it not sorted?
    Anyone???
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes of course I've contacted the Premium Mail help number. I've called them many, many times without any success at all and since I've been calling from abroad it's cost me a fortune to get nowhere.
    These forums are for the BT Community. I'm part of the community since I still have BT services. This isn't a Broadband forum. As I've indicated though, I've been with BT for over 35 years so I think that entitles me to some sort of service - even from here if possible.
    There is no issue with my account according to the BT staff. This has been checked and all is fine. The issue is that they are refusing to acknowledge that there is a problem although there clearly is one.
    However.... your statement: 
    It also possible that you are being stopped from using BTs SMTP server, because you are not actually connected to  BT Broadband. You would therfore be restriced to using webmail only.
    ... is new to me. No-one has told me that.
    One has to then beg the question: "If you can only use so-called Premium Mail via the web then why are BT not telling people that?"  No-one seems to know - even you Keith, say that "it is also possible...."
    If this actually IS the reason then I could have been told that from the beginning.
    Unfortunately, error 421 is one of the more "unspecific" codes generated by mail servers. This error can mean many things. It can show misconfiguration but it doesn't show up as a security lockdown - even though it could be. What I can't understand is why no-one actually knows. No-one can explain absolutely and that's what is really annoying here.
    No-one will take responsibility and no-one is willing to even try to help me out here - that's what is really bad.
    Keith, you've come up with something which makes sense that may well explain the issue - but the question is really: "What can I do about it?". 
    Nothing?  I just have to put up with it?  Great customer care....

    I have some problems with my iPhone. Can i change my iphone from USA (ME495LL/A) in Germany? Warranty is ok till october 2014

    No you cannot. The iPhone warranty is only good in the country of purchase. You would need to bring it back to the US, or send it to someone that could take it to an Apple store in the US. Apple will not accept international shipments.

It just looks fishy too me. It would be highly appreciated if someone could just check this out just to tell me that i don't need to worry about it. Or point me in the right direction. I just feel un easy about this. ha.

    There is something Definitely wrong with iOS 7 regarding DATA USAGE being logged to wireless carrier in for WIFI instead.
    I read all the previous replies and same issue.
    I rarely use my mac to sync....its all wifi sync for the last 2 years....never had this issue before... and i know it began with iOS7.... here is why....
    My iPhone was at home when I updated to iOS7 connected to wifi...but it logged Data Usage to Rogers Wireless (700MB approx)...data will never do an update over 50mb in app store (it gives the warning to use wifi) I play a lot of games and pay for them so I always update through App Store.  2 weeks later, simposons halloween update (650mb)...at home, using wifi.
    Rogers told me there was 700+mb data usage on the day of update and 650+mb data on oct 1.st (tapped out).
    Went over my 6GB plan and paid the fees.
    This has never happened before...It must come to apples attention by now...

    In order for the "From" field to show you options on the "from" addresses available, you must set them up in the Preferences > Accounts first.
    I can't show you a screen shot of the from field because I currently only have one account, so the from address used is the default. However, when I had more than one, then options will show up in your compose/reply window.
    You'd need to add an account here:
