ICloud Mail & Contacts don't work well together?

I have iCloud activated for Mail and Contacts. Now, when in Mail and I try to address an email, the address book shows up but none of the sub address books show up. How do I get them populated? Do I have to go back to syncing with MobileMe?

this is not a bug - but you're right its a serious problem.
The same happens on Linux/NVidia too igf I force antialiasing and use the OGL pipeline.
This happens because java tries to accerlate some graphic opeerations with DirectX or OpenGL and it simply wants the graphic-card to render the stuff it sends the graphic card.
However with AA turned on you graphic card tries to optimize the data coming from java which is nonsence since the AA was designed for games.
So basically its neither java's fault nore the dirvers one.
Both work as expected - but not well together. I think driver-manufactureres should provide a common API for telling the driver that this and that application does NOT want to be AA'ed even if its forced.
Till now there's nothing SUN could do about this issue...

Can it be that OS 10 and Flash don't work well together? Internet browsers are freezing up

I started this discussion on the macbook pro forum but no one has figured this out and I'm beginning to think this could be an OS 10 problem, so I'm posting here. No matter what browser I use (Safari or Firefox), after a little bit of surfing, the browser freezes and I get the spinning circle of death. Only thing that works to fix it is to reboot. But then the cycle repeats. I've found discussions of other fixes for this but nothing has worked. So far I have:
Added open source DNSs
Updated all software
Scanned for malware with Sophos (none found)
Cleared browser caches
Run disk utility and repaired all permissions
Reset Flash settings to disable hardware acceleration
Moved large files to an external hard drive to free up more disk space
Checked to see if I have a bad Shockwave plug-in that was the culprit for others (didn't have it)
Called Mac support and was advised to use disk utility
None of this has worked. In other cases, people felt the problem had to do with flash. For them, changing the hardware acceleration setting (as I did) or removing the bad plug-in fixed the problem. This has not helped me, and I'm at a loss of what to try next. Of note, nearly every other instance I turned up about this involved SLeopard 10.6.6. That's what I was using. I updated to 10.6.8, but it didn't help. Any suggestions?
I'm on a Macbook pro with 10.6.8, 4GB of ram and a 320GB hard drive showing 120GB free.

First level Console messages are usually too general. Those are kind of generic and I'm not seeing anything related there to your problem. You need to open Console and navigate inside to system.log.
This really needs fine some tooth troubleshooting. It could be so many things causing the problem. I'd call Apple back and get on the phone with a senior tech who can take the time to walk you through everything that needs to be looked at. Sounds like the tech you got either wasn't too skilled or ready to do that.
One of the first things to try is to create a new admin user and test for this there. The Apple tech should have suggested this. If it doesn't happen there, you know it's specific to your regular account and not system wide.
You could take a shotgun approach and throw Applejack at it. Make sure you do the underlined steps as well.

It runs in single user mode, where it runs more safely than other maintenance/cleaning programs because there is less chance of interference from the OS. After installing (you won't see it in the Applications Folder) hold CMD-S at startup. You will get a black screen with MS-DOS like text. Just follow the prompts: type in "applejack AUTO" and it will run through the following:
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
You can also run tasks selectively and for specific users by typing in "applejack." After running in "AUTO," you can go back and run it again as "applejack," steps 3 & 4 only, for your user.
The first reboot will take much longer than usual, as it rebuilds caches. It may take several restarts to see the benefits. Because of the deep cache cleaning in AUTO mode some applications may tell you they are being opened for the first time.

Can anyone get these to work??!!??!! Airports don't work well together

I have two airport expresses. I bought the second one to extend the range of my existing airport network. Both airports work fine when configured as a standalone main base station. But, when I set one up to be a remote/relay station, performance on both devices suffers. I know some decline in internet speed is expected, but mine slows to a crawl . . . like less then 10kb/sec. Plus, my wireless range does not appear to be extended at all.
Additionally, airtunes performance is horrible. I can't get a song to play for much more than ten seconds before it cuts out, pauses, and then starts up again 20 seconds later. It really seems like the connection is just cutting out, both in airtunes and internet, every few seconds.
I have already documented my problems in more detail in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=989979
Any advice??

Be aware that each WDS link cuts the available bandwidth in half.
It could be that you are experiencing RF interference from other devices operating at 2.4 GHz. Have you tried using a different channel? You can change the channel until you find a channel which works better or you run out of channels.

Aperture 3 and Time Machine don't work well together

I've noticed that my Time Machine (10.6.2) creates large backups (at least 250 MB) when I've only opened up Aperture 3. No retouching, no adding of photo's (of course), no changes. Just opening Aperture and a bit of scrolling.
Is there a way to prevent this? Is Time Machine perhaps backing up a cache? Where would I find this cache so I could perhaps exclude it from the TM?
Thanks !

the main idea of time machine is being able to restore your system to its latest state, or any state in time when it made a backup. in order to be able to do this, it just has to backup any file that's been changed, even if it's just a database having been touched by sqlite3. aperture 3 now saves the way you were viewing or where you were in a certain album or project, so when you come back to it, it takes you to exactly the same place. i guess it's necessary to write to a couple of database files to do that, even when you're just browsing. i kind of like this functionality.
just three quick comments:
-disk space is dirt cheap nowadays, so getting a big time machine backup disk shouldn't be any problem.
-since getting previous versions of your aperture library back is usually not very likely to happen, what i do from time to time is go in to time machine, select my aperture library and delete all copies of it. this takes quite some time, but on the next backup, you'll have your current library backed up and a time machine volume with more space.
-about it taking too long over wifi: backing up is a background process. does it slow down your other stuff while you're working? if so, let it run only when you're not at the computer, or hook up a big usb disk locally.

Desktop SMS and Windows Mail don't work properly together

Hi
thought I would post there here as been having some issues with my Windows Mail but my desktop computer doesn't suffer same issues and on a Vista forum where I posted my problem a couple of very helpful told me who to try solving the issues.
One of them suddenly realised I'd said my laptop was a Toshiba and apparently the Desktop SMS and Windows Mail just don't work properly together so the person suggested unless I use it to uninstall it apparently amongst the technically trained its known that these two programs don't like each other and would explain why my desktop doesn't have the issue but laptop does.
After resetting the Windows Mail (tutorial on a vista site http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/) Touch wood don't be put off by vistax64 as site does both 32 and 64 and followed Brink's excellent resetting Windows Mail (didn't restore any mail) and then uninstalled Desktop SMS and touch wood no more mail issues as has been giving me problems virtually daily with marking draft emails as read/sent.
So had to click on forward then delete those bits and finish email to send it and touch wood since doing these two things as soon as send an email to draft or outbox get the number of emails in the brackets whereas before this wouldn't happen unless I closed the program then reopened it.
Hoping these solutions have fixed my problem and wanted to share it with anybody else who wants to read this thread and would recommend the Vista 64 site as they're all really helpful over there and speak in non technical terms for those of us not technically trained.
Debbie

I have marked this as answered as it was more a post to help others who may have experienced the same problem I did and didn't get a reply or just didn't know that this program could be the reason their Windows Mail has issues that can't seem to be resolved any other way apart from ignore them and hope they don't get worse.

In MountainLion System Preferences, "iCloud", "Mail, Contacts, and Calenders", and "Software Update" all want to open in 32 bit mode. Security and Privacy won't open either.

As stated in the header,
iCloud
Mail, Contacts, and Calenders
Software Update
all want to open in 32 bit mode. Then when System Preferences quits and relaunches IN 32 bit mode, I get a dialog box saying "You can't open (pick one) preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac." Moreover, Security and Privacy does the same thing only without the song and dance about quitting and reopening.
Whaaaaat???!!! I've never owned anything BUT an Intel Mac.
The "open in 32 bit mode" is not, and has never been checked in "Get Info"
I tried going to ~Library/Preferences and tossing all com.apple.system preferences files and rebooting. No joy.
It actually looks like some joker has included a bunch of PPC preference panes in my copy of MountainLion, except some of them are new to this OS.
My hardware is a mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro with4 gb of RAM, and a 500 gb hard drive, in three seperate partitions, running three Mac operating systems, one at a time. I have SnowLeopard in a small partition because I still have a few things that don't run in Lion/ML. Lion is still my main use machine in the largest partition, and when ML came out, I redistributed most of the unused space into a 3rd partition into which I did a clean install of ML in it's own partition so I could work through the growing pains without compromising my main computer. I'm glad I did it that way, but I DO want to get ML working properly, and I can't do that if I can't authorize third party software. Gatekeeper is currently in the way, and I can't get it to move.

I dunno, that doesn't make any sense to me.
I just shut down and rebooted into the SnowLeopard partition and took a peek at the preference panes. There are only 3 that run in 32 bit only. They are all 3rd party, and none of the prefpanes are non Intel. Like I said, I have never owned a PPC machine. Anyhow, SnowLeopard doesn't even have an iCloud prefpane, or a combined mail, contacts, and calenders prefpane, and the ML security and privacy prefpane is all new as well. The software update prefpane is Intel and 64 bit in both SnowLeopard and Lion.
As to the triple boot, unless I'm totally mistaken, what I have here is, in essence, 3 seperate descrete computers in one box. All using the same hardware. but one at a time. I wouldn't know how to get more than one running at the same time, without using a virtual machine, even if I wanted to. (Which I don't) I do sometimes transfer files from one to another using the shared folder, but other than that, they do not interact. How could ML system preferences be trying to launch prefpanes from a totally different machine?

Why my screen iphone don't work well?

Why my iphon's screen don't work well?

Two things to try:
First, reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, set it up as new device, explained in this article:
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If still no luck, your hardware might be damaged and the phone has to be serviced.

Issue installing iCloud Mail/Contacts/Calendar

Hi,
I recently purchased a new Computer. I tried to set up iCloud Mail, Contacts & Calendar, using the iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows. When I attempt to configure those Services in Outlook 2013, the iCloud Control Panel gives me an Error.
I know that it is working with the iCloud Control Panel 2.1, so a Download Link would solve my issue.
Error message: "Outlook does not have a default profile configured"
Equipment:
Microsoft Outlook 2013
Windows 8.1
iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows
Thanks for any help in advance.

This explains how to view your Outlook profile(s), and if you have more than one profile, how to set one as your default: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/turn-on-or-off-profile-prompt-HA1 01821056.aspx.
At any rate, 2.1.3 and 3.1 are the only iCloud control panels available from Apple at this point.

Hi,
the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

Color don't work well in Mac book pro 13" and monitor flash sometimes? Please help me!

Color don't work well in Mac book pro 13" and monitor flash sometimes? Please help me!

Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The "etrecheck" fad hasn't made that step any less necessary. The usual results of posting etrecheck output on this site without a full description of the problem are very poor.
The many "failed" warnings that etrecheck sometimes spews mean nothing. Those warnings are not a reason to reinstall the OS, or to do anything else at all. They should be ignored.
The better your description of the problem, the better the chance of a solution.
For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

Is it true that Thunderbird does no longer works well with POP mail servers and only works well with IMAP servers?

Our email host is telling us that our outdated POP mail server doesn't work well with Thunderbird and it the reason we're having sporadic difficulty sending out emails with attachments when using Thunderbird (no problems when sending emails directly from the email host's web portal and bypassing Thunderbird). We'll often get notification when using Thunderbird and trying to attach PDF'd documents to an email that "Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server timed out." The email host company is advising that this problem will be solved if we upgrade from the free POP email to the not free IMAP email. True? Or are they just using this Thunderbird problem as an excuse to sign us up for unnecessary services?

I think they are using this as an excuse.
Messages are sent via SMTP. Both, POP and IMAP are protocols to receive mail.
In any case, it would be '''their''' 'outdated POP mail server', not yours.

ICloud Mail, Contacts, Calendar & Tasks setup error

I am trying to install iCloud on my PC (Windows 7 64 bit) and the installation seems to complete fine but after I restart and login and try to setup Mail, Contacts, Calendars and Tasks I get an error pop up on the screen saying the iCloud Control Panel Installation did not set up properly and that I need to repair it. When I click on reports it shows this error:
The iCloud Control Panel did not install properly. To repair it, you need to go to Programs and Features, select iCloud from the program list and click Change. When prompted, click on Repair. <a href="repair">Open Programs and Features…</a>
Error: 0x80004005: DataProviderRegistered
Error: 0x80004005: ZebraMapiCopySession::CanCreateZebraStore: CreateMessageService failed
Can someone please help me set this up successfully as I have been trying everything for a whole day now including repairing Outlook. There is no evidence that iCloud has been setup in Outlook before but it has previously so I know it can work together (I removed it some time ago when PhotoStream stopped updating).
Any help would be fantastic, thank you!

This drove me nuts for a week. I tried everything, uninstalling and reinstalling both Outlook and iCloud Control Panel multiple times. But today I finally fixed it and everything is syncing perfectly again! You need to shut down your PC and restart in SAFE MODE WITH NETWORKING (so repeatedly hit F8 when it is booting up and select that option). Once the PC has started in this mode, open up the iCloud control panel, select the Mail, Contacts Calendars and Tasks check box, click Apply, and hopefully it should work (as it did for me)! Good luck!

IOS 6.0.1: iCloud email Push don't work with particular Apple ID

The problem is iCloud mail push services do not work with my primary iCloud account. I have to use fetching for iCloud mail, otherwise I don't receive email notifications.
I tried deleting Apple ID from the device (iPad 3rd gen) and configured it again. It didn't help. Then I reinstalled firmware on the device and restored existing iCloud backup. Still no luck. I erased all content and settings and created a fresh Apple ID. Surprisingly, Push on the new account worked well. I configured my primary iCloud account on the fresh setup to sync both primary and new iCloud mail. The new one pushed emails, the primary not.
It seems the problem persist only with my existing Apple ID. Any fix or workaround available?
Thank you in advance.

My emails via my Cloud account have always worked well until 14.15 this afternoon when I kept getting messages that my settings and password were incorrect. This happened on both my iPad and iPhone. I have gone into my apple Account and reset password, I have even deleted cloud accounts from both devices and when reinstalling added new password and it was accepted as correct. YET the email accounts still won't let me have access to my mail and the same message is appearing that the password in incorrect. Is this an Apple issue and why has it happen suddenly today ? Please help somebody?

HT6030 Mavericks 10.9.1 and Gmail still don't play well together: help!

I have 4 gmail acounts and Mavericks and iOS 7 still don't get along despite having the latest versions of everything.
Mail deleted one place still shows up in another.
Counts are totally wrong between my MacAir my iMac and my iPad and iPhone and appear totally random.
At times mail won't show up on the iMac or MacAir for days or even weeks when there may be hundreds of messages that show up in my web browser and sometimes on the iPhone and iPad, but it seems totally arbitrary and to make no sense when it does one thing or the other.
I have no custom settings on gmail, nothing strange, just use it in the most basic ways there are.
Anyone else still having this problem and what to do about it? It is no better from 10.9 to 10.9.1, and has been causing problems since the moment Mavericks was installed.
Come on, Apple! You have a $100 billion in the back: hire people who can code a mail program or talk with the people who coded Mail for Mountain Lion, as it worked just fine.

10.8 worked well with my Mac Mini (2009) connected to IOGEAR KVM model GCS1108. My mouse is from Redmond and the keyboard is a Goldtouch.
Mavericks has a problem with my KVM switch as well. It seems to be a USB problem.
Case 1: The Mini's video is connected to the KVM switch -- mini DVI port to DVI. If the KVM USB cable (known good) is connected, the Mini chimes at boot but no grey Apple logo appears. LCD remains blank white. Boot does not progress.
Case 2: The Mini's video is connected to the KVM switch, as before. If the KVM USB cable is NOT connected, the Mini chimes at boot, the grey logo appears, and boot proceeds normally. Video is fine. I then connect the KVM USB cable to the Mini and use keyboard and mouse. KVM switching works as expected.
If the KVM USB cable is NOT connected but a keyboard and mouse are connected directly to the Mini, the boot sequence is normal. Video works.
The problem is not the hardware, all of which worked well with 10.8 (Mountain Lion). I would downgrade if Apple made 10.8 available from the App Store.
