I used to move an e-mail from my account to a local folder by click and drag which nio longer works after recent system updates but the move to does work.
I'm using Thunderbird (a very good product) on an 8.1 system. I recently performed Microsoft updates and disk maintenance. I no longer can move an e-mail from my Thunderbird account to a local folder using "click and drag". I can't find a solution. The "move to" works just fine.
Thanks for any help. Jim.
hold shift while Thunderbird starts.
In safe mode does it work?

I can't move events from local to icloud sharing. Clicking and dragging doesn't work!
I need to move all of the labels underneath the 'On My Mac' header to the 'iCloud' header so I can sync through iCloud with my other iOS device. Simply clicking and dragging them doesn't work. How can I solve this?
YES Terence! Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop. But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now. Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore? I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option.
I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs. I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly. I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working.
Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?! I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires.
Thank you so much for your help. I really, really appreciate it. -

I can't SEND e-mail from an account on my iPad 4, that CAN receive -mail
Hi Again,
I am hoping someone on this forum will possibly have an answer to a very confusing problem.
I can't seem to get one of my e-mail accounts to be set up 'properly' on my iPad 4. The account in question is an account from BT, which has @btinternet.com at the end of it. I have 'installed' and deleted this account more than ten times. When setting up this account (as with all other accounts that DO work properly), the only info I am 'asked' to input is my name, e-mail address and password, in the 'text entry spaces' that relate to the INCOMING mail server. When this is done I USUALLY see the word 'verifying........' Then the 'blue tick marks' confirming that the info I have entered is correct. The validity of this info is also confirmed by the fact that this account can RECEIVE the e-mails sent to it.
Each of the last four or five times I have deleted this e-mail account and re-installed it I have NOT seen the word 'verifying.....' And I have NOT seen the aforementioned blue ticks. Selecting 'done' after re-entering my info just makes this settings box disappear, rather than show the verifying and the blue ticks, which then allows me to see that the account is 'properly' set up - or should be anyway.
Even so I still get all the e-mails again, but still cannot SEND, OR REPLY
The error message I get every single time I try to SEND, OR REPLY using this same e-mail account is:
'Cannot Send Mail'
'The username or password for SMTP: ***********@mail.btinternet.com is incorrect'
My username and password are NOT incorrect. The set up process does not even ask for a username or password for 'SMTP'!
Even if I go further into the settings for this account, I can find two spaces where I COULD put a username and password, for SMTP, but these spaces already have the words 'optional' in them so they are not supposed to be 'required'. Even if I DO put in these spaces my surname and password for this e-mail account it does not make any difference.
I have tried 'switching on' the 'other mail servers' which are shown below the 'Primary mail server' in another settings box, for the btinternet.com e-mail account settings, but this still does not stop the error message, AND the e-mail in question is then actually sent from one of the e-mail accounts connected with the 'other mail servers' - I know this because it appears in the 'sent' items folder of whichever account my iPad has decided to use at the time (not always the same one either). It also appears in the sent items folder of the account that I TRIED to use, despite the fact it was NOT sent from this account, and the error message said I cannot send mail (from this account).
I have contacted Apple Tech Support and they have told me that the problem is NOT with the iPad, it is with the 'account provider'. This is because they say that the info held and used by BT - the info that is used as the 'correct info', that is compared to what I have put in the set up boxes on my iPad - IS actually the info that is incorrect despite the fact that the info I use on my iPad and the info I use on the BT website (which was originally determined by ME when I first got my account) and is held by BT, is the info that is causing the problem of the error message. To put it another way, the info referred to in the error message is NOT incorrect, the error message is incorrectly generated.
Typically, BT have tried to deny the problem is caused by them because 'the info referred to' - which is my e-mail address and password - works correctly an ALL places that is supposed to work (on the BT website) AND works with the BT/iPad applications like BT Wi-Fi, BT Smart talk, etc. :( :( :(
Any help or advice that anyone could give will be very greatly appreciated
Many thanks
BobUpdate to above question:
Hello All,
To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
So this fix worked for me.
After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.

How to recover mail from deleted account?
Had some problems receiving mail from an account and the service provider suggested I recreate it and try again... In doing so I deleted the old account and have lost all of the messages in the old inbox and sent mail box. I cannot find anywhere where these might have been put and expect that they have disappeared but does anyone have any tips for finding and restoring them?
G5 Mac Mac OS X (10.4.8) Mail 2.1It all depends on the type of account and how it was configured. For IMAP-type accounts, mail is stored on the server, and setting up the account again is all that’s needed to regain access to your mail.
If you deleted a POP account, however, then all your mail stored locally in that account’s mailboxes has certainly been wiped out, not just moved somewhere, and you were warned that this would happen by the following alert:
Remove Account
Are you sure you want to remove the <AccountType> account "<AccountName>"?
This will permanently delete the account setup information, mailboxes, and messages from your computer. Messages stored on the mail server will not be affected.
If the POP account was configured to leave mail on the server for some time instead of removing it right away when downloaded, incoming mail that’s still on the server can be re-downloaded by setting up the account again, just like for IMAP accounts, but keep in mind that this would only work for received (i.e. not sent) mail that has not yet been removed from the server.
If the messages are not on the server, and you don’t have a backup, your only option in the case of Mail 2.x is to try to salvage as many deleted *.emlx files as possible with a data recovery tool such as Data Rescue II, TechTool Pro, or FileSalvage (the files to be recovered would be different in the case of Mail 1.x). Of these, the only one I know for sure that can recover deleted *.emlx files is FileSalvage. Stop using your computer right now if you want to try that, as anything you do with the computer may cause the deleted files to be overwritten. -

For the record yes i can use my mail from my iPhone BUT BUT BUT it shows my ORIGINAL email account address BAD BAD BAD.
answer anyone!!!I have to agree with you , I too was disappointed to see that with IOS 4 on my iphone I still cant send from an alias. This is a feature thats available with the .me web access so why not the iphone mail app? If they can't do it, then at least let me be able to use .me via safari on the iphone and ipad.

Can you recover mail from deleted account?
Using Mail 2.0.5, I kept getting a message that port 25 was blocked, and couldn't receive mail from that account. I didn't think to check .mac for solution, but created a new mail account under a different name, with the same settings. When it worked, I deleted the original account...but didn't realize I'd lose all the mail associated with it in my mail program. Thought it would be stored someplace, but I can't find it anywhere. Is there any way to recover mail from a deleted Mail account?
Never did find a solution to this. However because we are using IMAP accounts most of the mail was cached on the client Macs. So I offlined them, loaded Mail, copied all the mail into local mailboxes, recreated the users, went online and copied the mail back into the new hierarchy.
Still can't believe I did such a daft thing! -

I need to remove my sons ipod and e-mail from my account how do I do it?
I need to remove my sons ipod and e-mail from my account how do I do it?
So, why do you think it is attached? Have you tried to set up a new Apple ID for him using his email address? Give it a go to see if you can. Once you have set it up, then that is what he would use to sign in to the iTunes Store on his iPod or when he was on the computer where your iTunes library is (or where his iTunes library is).
Here's the link to create a new Apple ID:

Let me know how it works out or if you have other questions!

"This message cannot be sent at this time." I have been getting this pop-up for 3 days when trying to send out mail. I don't know what to do! I cannot send mail from this account on any ISP. Please help!
lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that -
When I try to access adobe from my smart phone to use my form created in formscentral I receive an error message that says "unsupported browser". There is a link to download a supported browser but the link directs me to another page that says "browser not supported at this time". This happened to me while using my IPhone 5, a friend that uses an IPhone 6, and another friend that uses a Samsung Galaxy S5. I just need for my employees to be able to access, complete and submit work orders created in formscentral from their phones. I would like to use the data collection feature in formscentral but at this point any suggestions on how to accomplish this are welcomed. Thank you

My husband and I are divorcing and we have used his apple ID for our 2 apple tv's. He changed his password and now I no longer have access to the 300 or more movies, tv shows and music. He keeps telling me that , there is no way for us both to have it. So, since his Apple ID was the one programmed into our Apple TV's he has custody to everything. I know there has to be a solution for this, because I can't be the be the only person this has ever happened too!
Unfortunately the situation is thus...

.When installing a CD/album into my library some of the tracks get separated away from the main group of tracks. I try to click and drag the stragglers to the main group but it doesn't work. My laptop is using Windows 8. My old XP laptop didn't have this problem. I'm not sure if that has any thing to do with it. Any ideas would be appreciated. It's more of an irritation than a problem but if it can be solved, it would be a good thing. Thanks! Paul
Hey Paul,
If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

I frequently receive a notice from Mail that it 'can't connect' to my Yahoo account despite the fact that I am able to receive mail from that account. It appears with the name of my Yahoo account, my password (coded), and the choice to 'cancel' or 'ok'. If I click either, the banner goes away but comes back soon. I can open Mail and see that all accounts are online. I get the banner SEVERAL time during a session - very annoying!
I have several accounts, but this only happens with Yahoo and sometimes Hotmail. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this Mail issue?
Thanks.I have 5 IMAP and 1 POP (Hotmail).
The Yahoo is IMAP.
