I want to move my mail account (exactly how it is on my laptop now) to my new mail account on mavericks

I want to move my mail account (exactly how it is on my laptop now) to my new mail account on mavericks (which is on a new SSD drive) then i am going to format the old hard drive so i can use it as an extra hard drive.
Surely it should be easy?
I thought i could just drop the mail folder but it looks different on Maverick.
I also have a hard drive back up of the old folders and also a time machine back up.
I'm a total dummy.. so go easy on me please

Export makes a mailbox package whihc I thinkis what's need to properly restore on import.
See below for location of export.
For restoring from Time machine here's is the help text for doing so. (I've only done this on individual messages)
I also think if you copy everything in ~/Library/Mail you may be all-right.

My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address. I had to quit using this email address as it got hacked. I created a new gmail account. How can I get my iTunes downloads into the new gmail account?

My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address. I had to quit using this address as it got hacked. How do I get my iTunes downloads into my new iTunes account that was created with a new gmail address? In my old iTunes account (with the old gmail address, I can't 'update' my email address or even 'add an alternate address' as I had already created this gmail account and inputting the new address into iTunes gives me the 'pop-up' that 'this account is already in use.' Advice please!

Good luck. It took me weeks to fix this when I had to do it. Your old ID branches out in lots of places. You may have to delete app and get them again, at least that is what Apple told me. Plus, all of your settings on your iPad that required any ID, will have to be changed. My old ID kept showing up in different places for weeks. Changing it on Apple.com is just the beginning.

I'm having issues with my gmail accounts in Mail since I upgraded to OS X Mavericks. All the mails start downloading again! How do I correct this so that only the new mails in these accounts get downloaded?

HT2688 my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch. how do i get this done?

my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch. how do i get this going?

The music should still be in her iTunes Library - the one she uses to put music on the Shuffle. Simply connect the new iPod to that iTunes library, make the choices she wants for syncing the music to the iPod (which I guess, may now include putting all her music onto the iPod, since it has more storage capacity) and press Sync.
Future Syncs with that Library will cause any changes of the Library to be copied to the iPod. Note that music is (or should be) copied to the iPod, not moved. There are two reasons for having the music in the Library:
makes it easier to put the music onto a newer iPod, such as now;
if or when the iPod needs a Restore, which will delete everything from the iPod, you will need to copy "the Library" back onto the same iPod.

This user tip should be helpful too. It refers to the iPhone, but it's equally valid for iPods as well…

I am currently volunteering in Uganda, so data is precious. I can no longer afford unlimited data, I pay by MB/GB. All of a sudden Mail has stopped receiving. I wait until about 60meg, but no new mail. Using Gmail. Doctor says connected fine.

I am currently volunteering in Uganda, so data is precious. I can no longer afford unlimited data, I pay by MB/GB. All of a sudden Mail has stopped receiving. I wait until about 60meg, but no new mail. Using Gmail. Connectivity Doctor says connected fine. No probs there. And weirdly, when I want to send an email. I write it, it takes absolutely ages to try to send but as soon as I click disconnect it sends the email. Very odd. I would just love to be able to write all my emails offline and save to drafts/Outbox and then just connect to send and check emails then disconnect again.

I can see that this issue has been quite extensive, and frustrating, and I am so sorry for all that has happened societygirl! I would like to help you work this issue out. Please follow & send me a Direct Message, so I can get your account specifics and help finally bring this to a resolution.
Thank you,

My iPhone 4 has never backed up to anything, the account I started it with I never used. I now have a new icloud account, if I delete the old one will I lose my photos or will they still be on my phone?

My iPhone 4 has never backed up to anything, the account I started it with I never used so I was never able to verify it or anything. I now have a new icloud account and I want to backup my phone before I get a new one in a couple of days. If I delete the old account will I lose my photos or will they still be on my phone (remember they've never been backed up)? Thanks!

You cannot delete an Apple ID, you can just stop using it. If your photos are still on your phone now, then I suggest you do back them up. Transfer them from the phone into your iPhoto Library. iCloud only backs up your Camera Roll automatically. But the Camera Roll only contains new photos that were taken but not yet transferred using iTunes.

Mail.app 10.6.4 constantly polling Gmail (IMAP) but not fetching new mail

Since upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.4, Mail.app has been having a problem with Gmail (IMAP).
When I launch Mail.app it connects to Gmail without any problem and fetches any new mail. The next time it checks for mail on Gmail, the animated activity symbol appears next to my Gmail inbox and then stays there spinning constantly. Any new mail is not retrieved, and it will continue like this until I quit and restart Mail.app, in which case the cycle repeats - first fetch is ok, subsequently can't fetch mail.
Have experienced this on both my Macs. Have tried disabling/re-enabling accounts, deleting & recreating, resetting passwords, but all to no avail. One glimmer of hope is that Gmail (IMAP) seems to work fine on my iPhone and iPad, so the problem seems to be in the version of Mail.app in Snow Leopard 10.6.4?

oddly i fixed by deleting the account and creating it again.

I registered my camera and lens before creating an account. How do I link the two now?

Mail hiccup? 2 to 3 times a day don't receive new mail unless quit & reboot

Sometimes I won't receive new e-mail messages in my INBOX, my Treo tells me I have new mails. I have to quite mail to see new messages. I've heard this is a mproblem with mac mail, anybody know how to fix it?

I've been using the Mail.app for a very long time and I've never had this problem. Where have you heard this? This problem isn't reported here in large numbers if at all.
For what type of account - .Mac, IMAP or POP?
What is your time interval setting for automatically checking for new messages?
Before quitting and relaunching Mail, have you checked if the account is offline which can occur when there is a problem communicating with the incoming mail server for an account which isn't necessarily a Mail.app problem.

Do you mean iTunes library?
iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
iTunes library is what is on your computer.
It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

- Transfer iTunes purchases:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
newer copy
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup
Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

Alibutlerdesigns you will use the same process to install on your second computer. You can copy the installation files using a USB drive if you do not wish to download the installation files again.

Hi were you able to resolve yours?
I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

Import the music on the external HD into iTunes. If you don't want iTunes to make a new copy of each track that is stored in your iTunes Media folder on your PC's internal HD, make sure the Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library option is NOT ticked from under the Advanced tab of iTunes Preferences. Just remember that if you go this route, you'll always need to have your external HD plugged in before you start up iTunes.
