Issues syncing from BB to Gmail account

Background info: I have two email accounts linked to my Torch: personal gmail, and a Google Apps account for work (on which also lives my entire calendar, work and personal).
Two issues:
1) Every time I send an email from the personal account - either on the computer OR on the BB (this is NOT an issue for the work account), it shows up not only as a "sent mail," but it also sends me an additional copy from "myself". This is not destructive, just annoying...nothing like a day of cranking out emails on the computer and all of a sudden, 50+ "new messages" whenever I look at the phone.(interestingly, this is NOT happening on my Thai SIM card that I currently have in the phone, but it's been an issue since Day 1 in the US)
2) Contact syncing. The accounts sync to the BB (via Google Sync), but if I change something on it, it won't sync back to the address books on the browser. Is there any way to enable backward syncing?
Also, the only contacts that continue to duplicate are those that remain in the "My Contacts" list on the personal account (which is a group of about 10 RANDOM people that I did not put there - appeared unexpectedly - also, all my contact groups in that account have been emptied out).
Anyone know how to deal with either of these issues? Thanks in advance...

Not receiving mail from people with gmail accounts

Has anyone run into a situation where they stopped receiving e-mails from contacts with gmail accounts? I seem to get mail from all other mail providers, just not gmail - sending messages to gmail contacts also doesn't seem to be working. All was fine up until about 2 weeks ago.
Any ideas?

If IMAP for your GMail is still not working correctly, then setup a new email account under Settings > Mail,.... > Add Account > Microsoft Exchange.
Then enter the following
Email: your GMail address
Domain: Leave blank
Username: your GMail address
Password: your GMail password
Description: Up to you what you enter here.
Click Next
Server: m.google.com
Click Next and now you can select what services you wish to sync with your iPod.
Mail: On
Contacts: Up to you
Calendars: Up to you.
You should have your GMail account backup and running, on your iPod.

My mac has started sending yahoo emails out as if they were being sent from an old gmail account I haven't used in years. Why has this just started happening?

My mac has started sending yahoo emails out as if they were being sent from an old gmail account I haven't used in years. Why has this just started happening?

It is important to understand that Mail uses TWO servers, a Receiving Server and a Sending Server.
When you create a new mail message, or reply to a message, the Sender server is shown in the message composition window like this:
That drop-down window allows you to select which of the Sending Servers you previously set up should be used.
In general, once you choose a Sending server, its choice will "stick" for all future replies to messages from that Receiving mailbox.

I write a new email from my personal gmail account and it automatically sends from my family gmail account. I make sure that it lists my personal email on the from line. it still shows up that its from my family email. Help!

Hello, gypsyro.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would check to make sure the default account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars is set to your personal Gmail account. Test send another message after making the change.

Go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into your iCloud account and launch Mail, click the gear icon on the lower left and choose Preferences, then on the General tab yo can set up forwarding to forward email to your Gmail account.

Cannot permanently delete mails from trash in gmail account

When emails are deleted using default Mac OS X Mavericks mail.app, they move to the trash folder as expected and when I delete them from the trash folder, they dissapear as supposed. Unfortunatelly, after logging in to the gmail web-based version, the emails are still visible in trash folder. They are sort of hidden, because they are visible only in web-based version, not in any smtp client. Interesting is, that iPhone mail app deletes the mails correctly. This issue was tested on 3 computers (iMac 27" i5 late 2010, Macbook Pro Retina 15" i7 early 2013, Macbook Pro Retina 13" i5 late 2013), 3 user accounts, and 3 gmail accounts. Do you have any suggestions?

Okay, that solved it, except that I had to input rm -rf ~/.Trash/*
and NOT "Trashes." It accepted your version of the command, but it didn't do anything discernible. I noticed that entering Trashe and trying to press tab to autocomplete didn't work, suggesting that maybe Trashes doesn't exist. However, trying to autocomplete with fewer letters typed indicated to me that Trash DOES exist, and so I went ahead with that and it worked.

Attaching photos from iPhoto to gmail account

This may not be an iPhoto issue and rather an email issue but since I do not know how to fix the problem maybe someone here will....
When I attach a photo from iPhoto and send it via my gmail account and the receiver opens the attachment the picture is massive and cannot be seen in one screen. You have to scroll to see the entire picture but you are never able to see the entire thing at once. How do I get the picture to open the size of the current screen and no larger?
Thanks, KL

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Read TD's treatise on file access for use outside of iPhoto.
That being said I believe there's a GMail plugin available: Digg - iPhoto Plugin: iPhoto2Gmail. You can give it a try.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Having Issues with More than 1 Gmail account in Mail

I successfully added my 2 Gmail accounts to Mail in OS X and only one account required an "application-specific password", which was actually extremely easy to figure out. The other Gmail account that I added, it accepted the regular password I would use if accessing this Gmail account from any web browser. The problem lies in the fact that for the account that required the "application-specific password" allows me to select all options to Sync (ie. Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Messages, and Notes). However, the account that only required my regular password will only allow me to select "Calendars" and " Messages". If I click "Mail" or any of the other unchecked options, they immediately uncheck themselves. Any I totally overlooking something or can anyone possibly help me out?

mea culpa!
I forgot to change the description for the second (new) IMAP account.

I want to set up Firefox sync from scratch using an account I own that shows as "already in use".

I had a problem with my old Firefox Sync account (from work, using my work email address) and I would like to set up Sync again using my personal account. When I go to try to set up Sync, my only options appear to be "Create a New Account" or "I Have an Account". If I select create a new account, I get stuck because technically the account has already been used (I set up Sync a few years ago using my personal account but never utilized it), even though it is not in use on any of my machines. If I select I have an account, it wants me to sync the device with another, but I don't have another to sync to. I want to use my already existing account to set up Sync from scratch on my main machine. How can I get this done?

on another note: firefox 29 which is going to be released at the end of the month will use a different account system (not compatible with current sync accounts), so it might not be worth the effort setting up sync with the old credentials now: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

Can't work out how to stop Mac mail from Forwarding to GMail account.

Okay. This is on behalf of my sister. For whatever reason, when emails are sent to her @mac.com address they get forwarded to her GMail account and deleted from her @mac.com address. So they never appear in her @mac.com inbox. She now wants this relationship to stop and wants to delete her GMail account due to hacking fears and use the @mac.com address as it was intended, but between us we can not figure out where the setting that is doing the forwarding and deleting command it set. I thought I had nailed it when I hit upon the "Rules" section in OS Mail preferences, but there was nothing in there. I then thought it might be a setting on her GMail account, but they are all standard as well.
So is there some place I'm not looking in either OS Mail or on me.com, or some place else that contains this type of forwarding commands that I'm clearly missing.
Thank you for any suggestions in advance
One thought I had was if I deleted her Mac account from OS Mail and re-built it, would that start everything from scratch???

Managed to solve this myself. Yeah.
It was a Mobile Me setting.
log on to me.com in an internet browser. Then select the preferences option under actions in the Mail area and select other, and in there you'll find forwarding options.... what a ball ache to find it though. Its not very clear at all. If u have a similar problem, then I suggest logging into me.com and do a search for forwarding and you'll find what you need straight away.

Password Sync from Active Directory Locking Accounts

Hello,
We recently set up Active Directory as a resource and are synching passwords. We are using IDM 7.1.1.11. We are noticing that when actions in IDM push the password out to AD, and they sync comes back to IDM, the sync workflow is locking up the account, before the original IDM action completes. For example, when an admin resets a users password, they see several error messages stating that the account is locked by the account that authenticates through the password sync utility. They also see succesful password reset messages, but I would like it if they didn't see errors saying the account is locked. We are using a direct connection between the Password Sync util and IDM. Has anyone ran into this? Any advice on overcoming it?
Thanks.
Jim

I opened a support case with Sun about this issue, and they recommended logging a trace file for com.waveset.adapter.ActiveDirectoryActiveSyncAdapter. While the tracefile does not seem to contain any useful information, the simple fact that there is tracing going on for it now seems to be easing the situation. In my test environment I saw occurrences of this locking problem drop by 90-95% simply by turning the tracing on. I started tracing in production in the hopes that it will at least lessen the occurances of this.
Sounds like we are taking the same approach Raj, the problem I've been having with it is getting it to happen will I'm debugging our reset password workflow. I want to make sure I add the locking check in the right place, so I was attempting to determine which area to check for it.
I'll be sure to keep the thread updated if anything changes on our end.

Using another from address for Gmail account in Mac OSX Lion's Mail app

Hi,
On my iPhone I've set up gmail as an Exchange accout and when I send an e-mail, my from address appears to be the one I select as default address in gmail preferences.
Is there any way to achieve this in Mac OSX Lion's mail application?
Regards,
Erdem Kucuk

Hmmm, not sure what is going on, but from the Mail log, neither of those IPs have a name associated with them, 1st one is in Netherlands, 2nd one is iin Africa!???
Any idea why it'd be looking those up?

Can two iphones on different accounts sync from the same itunes account?

I have an iphone through work. The iphone along with four other various types of ipods sync with my accounts on iTunes, including thousands of purchased songs. My wife is getting an iphone but she had to do if through her work.
How do I make sure she can still sync with my library of purchased songs? We all want to have just one itunes account even though the iphone will be purchased separately. Make sense?

*Is that all? Wow. Thank you so much. I will try it!*
