I have an apple mac pro I can send emails but i cannot receive them from anyone

I have an apple mac pro, I am able to send emails , but not receive them? I have tried deactivating and deactivating my account but so far no joy, any ideas would be most helpful.
Cheers pete

Hello, sadly Apple pays more attention to iDevices Mail than Mail for Macs.
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.

  • My ipad can send email but I cannot receive or see incoming mail

    My iPad air is was updated yesterday with iOS 8.2.  Now I can send emails but I cannot receive or see any mail in my inbox.  My iPhone 5S works correctly but has not been updated with 8.2.

    Hi, Grandpaintraining.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here is an article I would recommend going through when experiencing issues with mail.  I would also recommend checking with your email provider for security procedures such as two-step verification as this could cause this issue.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • IChat can send messages but doesn't receive them(5.0.1)

    Hello there. My iChat 5.0.1 doesn't allow me to receive messages from anyone but allows me to send to them. I've tried re-starts of the application and computer but to no avail. This problem just showed up recently and I had no problems after updating to 10.6.2.
    Any help would be totally appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Have you changed you router or modem recently ?
    iChat Loins by Default on port 5190 using the TCP Protocol
    It also uses port 5190 on the UDP protocol for File Sending and Pics in Chats and some Group chats.
    Some modems and router do not like this dual se of the port and it pays to log the Screen Name out and go to iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Server settings and change the port to 443
    Also check in iChat Preferences > Alerts
    Change the top drop down to Receive IMs and then check the Apple Script Option is not active and using Auto-Decline.

  • I can send emojis but when i receive them it shows up just as an empty speech bubble. How can I fix this?

    Emojis won't sh up on a received text on my 5c

    You don't.
    There is no set standard for how emojis are coded and sent.
    It varies by OS or app used.

  • IBook. Mac Mail. Can send email.

    iBook running OS 10.4.11. Mac Mail. Can send email, but not receive. Slow to send, goes to Outbox first. Can send and receive email via WebMail. Any ideas please.

    Is your Mail set up properly? It is possible that you have set up the wrong SMTP & POP3 servers.

    As per CS5.5 Design Standard release notes it can run on 10.6.8.
    Kindly try to install in and share the results so that we can assist you if needed.

  • I have a new mac pro and can't get a side scroll bar.  What can I do to get this?

    I have a new mac pro and can't get a side scroll bar.  How can I get this?

    The scroll bar is now set to appear automatically when you start scrolling with a trackpad or scroll wheel mouse. If you are using an mouse without a scrolling device, you should change a setting.
    In System Preferences, click General, and in the Show Scroll Bars section, click the option for how you want it to work. If you want to see them all the time click "Always."

  • I have been having trouble getting my email on my iPad. It started when I brought it to the US on vacation (I live in London and my email provider is Virgin Media). It worked once since I returned, but that is it. I can send emails, but can't get them

    I have been having trouble getting my email on my iPad2.
    It started when I brought it to the US on vacation (I live in London and my email provider is Virgin Media). It worked once since I returned, but that is it.
    I can send emails, but can't get them.
    Any ideas, people?

    Hi Kharels
    Just posted this reply to 2 others with same sort of question:
    I have the same issue as i have my own email address and only want to use.
    There are two ways around this annoying problem. The first is to set up your own domain email account alongside your iCloud one, and when you go to send each email tap on From and you get a choice of emails addresses to reply from... ie your own domain or the iCloud one.  This is tedious though.
    The other is to set up your iCloud email as normal, then create a new one altogether. Choose 'Other' when creating this new account. Then put for the incoming server mail.me.com, along with your user name and password. For the outgoing server put the server you want to use - ie your own domain one. This is therefore a hybrid account and does work.
    Now switch off the email for iCloud (leaving on Calendar, Address Book etc). Switch on the email for your hybrid account (which of course is iCloud incoming as well).
    Providing you have directed your own domain email address to your me.com one, you will find the iPhone should behave itself and you can use the folders etc and these will synch with your Mac ok.
    Hope this work for you - let us know.

    The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.
