Just did a Firmware Update and can't receive or send mail

I just did a firmware update as recommended by Apple:
2008-04-13 18:30:24 -0400: Installed "Aluminum Keyboard Firmware Update" (1.0)
2008-04-13 18:30:32 -0400: Installed "iMac EFI Firmware Update" (1.3)
I had restarted my iMac and noticed that my Mail 3.2 will no longer connect to my mail servers and send or receive mail.
My internet connection is fine when using my browser. I closed and restarted "Mail" and this didn't help and even restarted my computer but that didn't help either.
Anyone else that just did this update have a similar issue? Anyone know of a fix? I don't think I can undo the Firmware update now, so what do I do?
Thanks

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
Delete and re-add the email accounts.

I have an email account through yahoo. I am having trouble setting it upon my iPhone and can't receive or send emails!!!! I contacted Rogers and they said I need to find out the host name of the incoming server, in other words yahoos host name. Help!!

Yahoo's servers are notoriously unreliable. Use the "Yahoo" account type when setting it up. If it doesn't work, and you are positive the credentials are correct, wait a while and try again.
While you're waiting, set up a free gmail or iCloud email account.

I have an iPhone 4 and just did a software update and now my phone won't turn in. It looks like it wants me to connect to iTunes but I'm traveling and can't access my account...or don't know how. Help!

I did a software update and cannot get my phone to turn off, on, or anything. It shows a gray apple and then an iTunes icon with a USB cable picture. I am not able to connect to my iTunes account because it's on my home computer (I'm traveling). It won't let me add my laptop because it says I have it tied to too many computers already and I can't deauthorize any of those computers because I don't know what they are, and I'm traveling. Can anyone help make my phone usable again? Preferably with contacts in tact.
Pleeeeease!

A drop or two of water may have been enough to cook it. If it was bad enough to prompt you to put it in a bag of rice, then I'd venture to guess it was more than a drop or two.
Try putting it back in the bag of rice and leave it there for several days.
If that doesn't fix it, then you're more than likely looking at paying for an out of warranty replacement.
Water and delicate electronics don't generally get along well.

Just did a software update and now my mac won't boot

On Monday I did my Apple update, and when I tried to reboot after the update I was greeted with a circle with a line through it. I still get the moving circle on the bottom, but it never boots.
I do not have my original install disc, but I was able to use another G4 install disc to repair disk permissions and repair the disc. After doing so, I still have the same issue.
Any ideas would be really helpful. Thanks

Since Disk Utility can see your drive that is at least a good thing. I am just trying to establish where you stand on booting. Normally if you can boot but experience problems then you can try Disk Utility to repair the drive, which obviously doesn't work in your case. Next is Safe mode which starts up pretty much normally but bypasses some things, and that too is not working. Single User Mode takes you to a text presentation boot stage.
Once one starts with the stronger medicine it is a good idea to back up your data files at least in case the things you do make the drive worse. Booting into TDM makes your computer act like a giant external hard drive and gives you the chance to copy off those files, assuming your friend has the room on her computer. Then you're more at liberty to experiment with different things to get your computer up and working again. If nothing works you always have the option of reinstalling OSX. You might consider an archive and install, or if you can copy your files off elsewhere just reformat the drive and do a clean install and rebuild everything.
It may be a case where you may have to buy a utility like Diskwarrior which does things like Disk Utility repair but much more. Or if Diskwarrior doesn't work and you do need your files you may have to let a program like Data Rescue II have a go at recovering the files (but will need an empty harddrive at least the size of the data on your computer).
At this stage you might also start looking at external bootable hard drives, both because it might come in handy now and also because you'll be able to backup your computer in the future in case of a repeat occurrence.

I just did a firmware upgrade and there is no eprint logo on the front of my computer. what now?

i just did the firmware upgrade for eprint. there is no logo on the front of my printer and the guide doesn't tell you where to go if you don't have this. I would like to setup eprint but i don't know where to go from here. How do i find my printer's email address?

Hi piedmont44v,
I'll be happy to help you with this. If you don't mind, what model is your printer? Our process will be determined by this information.

Ipad 3 email can't receive or send mail

My ipad3 retina display running on ios6 suddenly can't receive or send email anymore. I was trying to open pdf attachment in my email and got blank screen. Restart email and reboot my ipad, email still didn't come back. Anybody have the same problem?

It sounds as if you need to speak to your university's IT department to get instructions for properly connecting your Mac to their LAN and getting email service. It is some security protocol that you are not able to properly engage I think.

Just installed OS X updates and can no longer boot into Bootcamp

Just installed the latest updates for OS X Yosemite and now I can't boot to my Bootcamp partition. It doesn't show up in Startup Disks and it's not an option when booting while holding Option. The partition still shows up in Disk Utility but it no longer says BOOTCAMP, it now says disk04s. Is this fixable? I just wrote some data to that partition last night that I really don't want to lose and it hasn't yet been backed up. Thank you.

Just did a software update and now iTunes or other Mac accessories won't work?

I did a software update for my Macbook and now iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and iWeb won't work. I keep getting the iTunes quit unexpectedly thing and it sends the report to Apple. Is there anything I can do to fix this???

Download the 10.6.8 combo release from the Apple download site. Use Disk Utility (on your hard drive in applications/utilities) to repair permissions, then apply the combo release, then repair permissions again. That sometimes fixes odd system errors after a Software Update.

Can't access MobileMe Mail and Can't receive or send e-mail with Entourage

For the past three days I haven't been able to check my email account. Cannot receive or send email with Entourage. Tried accessing my mail account online (www.me.com) and once I login the page is blank, there's nothing in it.
Please help. Thank you!

MobileMe says that 1% of users are experiencing problems with mail, although I was told earlier today that it will be offline or sporadically available for the next 2 days at least. You can always check the status of MobileMe here.

Can't receive or send mail: Password rejected

Hi there.
Every time I try and open Mail, I get asked to enter my password for account ".mac account" and told the .mac server "mail.mac.com" has rejected the password for user xxx. I'm asked to re-enter the password. This has happened before when the server is having problems but usually rights itself within a few hours (Re-entering the password never makes any difference.) This time however it's been 5 days, and although I can access my mail at mobileme it's a real pain.
Does anyone have any suggestions about what I can do to get my mail back?
Many thanks

Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.

LaserJet 1102W lost connection to network after firmware update and can't reconnect.

I have used the LaserJet 1102W on my Wifii network for some time. I use MacOSX 10.7 on one laptop and OSX 10.8 on my new Retina Macbook Pro. I updated the firmware to get access to ePrint and lost wirless connections. I have tried many times to reestablish network connection as instructed thru System Preferences and continue to get the response that my Wep Key is invalid. I have many items using the Wep key including apple tv, phone, ipad and it is the correct wep key. My network is Wep 128. Is there some way I'm suppose to split the key between the 4 available wep key spaces? My router is a Linksys WRT320N, Mac Book Air running 10.7.4, Mac Book Pro running 10.8.2. I have been trying to setup the network wireless with the Mac Book Air. I can print with both computers via USB.

I updated a P1102w that we have here to firmware version 20120814 and haven't had any problems with it. I set a static IP and set the DNS to a preferred of 8.8.8.8 and an alternate of 8.8.4.4, and haven't had a problem with anything from a Windows system. I ran into a problem printing from Safari on a Mac running OS 10.8, but that was the only program with the problem. I even turned the printer off and back on several times to make sure the IP settings would stick, and they have. If you've done that and are still having problems, try power cycling your entire network. I'll link a document that will help to get the printer on the network steadily below. If you are still in warranty, HP may replace the printer at no cost to you. I'll link the information to get in touch with them below. The link will take you to a form to fill out. Once you fill it out and it is processed, it will give you the printers warranty information, a case number, and the phone number to call.
