Just switched to Mail...Please Help!

Hello,
I just switched over from Entourage to Mail, and everything was going fine. I am using an IMAP account to get email from my college webmail. All the folders I set up on my webmail were synced to mail and someone had told me that if I had a Sent, Junk Mail, Trash, and Drafts folder already exsisting that I should highlight it and go to Mailbox -> Use this mailbox for -> Sent, Junk Mail, Trash, and Drafts respectivly. However when I did this the icon for trash, junk mail and drafts disappeared and now my trash does not work correctly. Specifically, I cannot see any messages in the trash/deleted messages folder on Mail, but I can see them on the webmail. Any help to reset the icons would be appreciated.
Also, when I get a message that is automatically moved to a folder other than inbox how do I make the mail notification number in my dock pop up?
Last, are there any popular plugins or anything like that that I should know about?
Thanks for your help,
Eric

Hello Eric.
In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/IMAP-username@mailserver/. With that folder open, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post to let me see the names of the files and folders it contains -- you may disguise any mailbox names you wish to keep private.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.
Also, when I get a message that is automatically
moved to a folder other than inbox how do I make the
mail notification number in my dock pop up?
You don't. You need a plugin if you want that functionality.
Last, are there any popular plugins or anything like

I have just upgrade my Ipad3 to IO6 and for some reason the youtube app just gone disappeared. Please help

I have just upgrade my Ipad3 to IO6 and for some reason the youtube app just gone disappeared. Please help!!

The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6. You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)

Remove preferences on Mac OS
Quit Dreamweaver.
In the Finder, navigate to /Users/Your User Name/Library/Application Support/Adobe.
Rename the Dreamweaver preferences folder:
Dreamweaver CS5: Rename the Dreamweaver CS5 folder to, for example, Old Dreamweaver CS5.
Navigate to /Users/Your User Name/Library/Preferences.
Rename the Dreamweaver preferences file:
Dreamweaver CS5: Rename the Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Prefs file to, for example, Old Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Prefs.
Try to re-create problem
After you have removed your existing preferences, restart Dreamweaver. The application creates new preferences files, folders, and registry entries, as applicable, using the default settings.
Then try to re-create the problem that you had before.
If the problem was resolved, then damaged preferences was the cause.
If the problem persists, then the preferences are not the cause and you can replace the original preferences.
To replace the original preferences:
Quit dreamweaver.
Delete the new preferences folder and restore the original name of the previous folder.

If it's a thin 1 pixel wide vertical line it's highly likely it could be caused by a defective LCD.
One quick basic way to check is to note the position of the line. Then go to System Preferences, Displays, and lower the resolution. If ther line moves it's on the video and the logic board or video card if fitted is likely to be defective. If the line stays in the same position it's likely to be an LCD fault. Either way to have it repaired you'll need to visit an Apple store or AASP.
The worst offender for this problem is the Late 2006 17" iMac. FOC replacement of the LCD used to be covered by a quality program, but it's now ended.

I can't see the Audio Waveforms in the timeline. No triangle button to click. Just switched from FCP. Help!?

I can't see the Audio Waveforms in the timeline. No triangle button to click. Just switched from FCP. Help!

When I click on the wrench or right click to customize the box, these are the options I'm given. I don't see waveform. I've edited in Adobe Audition for years, and see the waveform panels in all the Premiere Pro tutorials, am I missing something? (besides a brain?)

I updated imovie and I Used to be able to save as Quicktime file, now not an option & files are so large when I save as mpeg4 and just rename them. Please help!

Actually it is easier than I thought. It is H264 but the wrapper is m4v. You can just change that in the finder to .mov and drop it into iDVD. iMovie will send it to iTunes so just right click on it in iTunes and select reveal in finder and then copy/paste to desktop and change to .mov. Then drag into iDVD. Really easy.

Connect the HDD to your MBP. Open Disk Utility>Erase and drag the HDD icon inrt the Name field. The format should be Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Click on the Erase button.
Then try the clone process again. You may use Disk Utility>Restore or a third party cloning application such as Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper.

Having problem with switch statement..please help

here my question :
GUI-based Pay Calculator
A company pays its employees as executives (who receive a fixed weekly salary) and hourly workers (who receive a fixed hourly salary for the first 40 hours they work in a week, and 1.5 times their hourly wage for overtime worked).
Each category of employee has its own paycode :
?     Paycode 1 for executives
?     Paycode 2 for hourly workers
Write a GUI-based application to compute the weekly pay for each employee. Use switch to compute each employee?s pay based on that employee?s paycode.
Use CardLayout layout manager to display appropriate GUI components. Obtain the employee name, employee paycode and other necessary facts from the user to calculate the employee?s pay based on the employee paycode:
?     For paycode 1, obtain the weekly salary.
?     For paycode 2, obtain the hourly salary and the number of hours worked.
You may obtain other information which you think is necessary from the user.
Use suitable classes for the GUI elements. (You can use javax.swing package or java.awt package for the GUI elements.)
here my code so far :
import java.awt.;*
import java.awt.event.;*
import javax.swing.;*
*public class PayrollSystem implements ItemListener {*
JPanel cards, JTextField, textField1, JLabel, label1;
final static String EXECUTIVEPANEL = "1.EXECUTIVE";

*//Put the JComboBox in a JPanel to get a nicer look.*
JPanel comboBoxPane = new JPanel(); //use FlowLayout
JPanel userNameAndPasswordPane = new JPanel();
*// User Name JLabel and JTextField*
userNameAndPasswordPane.add(new JLabel("NAME"));
JTextField textField1 = new JTextField(25);
userNameAndPasswordPane.add(textField1);
*String comboBoxItems[] = { EXECUTIVEPANEL, HOURLYPANEL };*
JComboBox cb = new JComboBox(comboBoxItems);
cb.setEditable(false);

HOW CAN I PERFORM THE SWITCH STATEMENT INSIDE THIS CODE TO LET IT FULLY FUNCTIONAL..?
I MUST PERFORM THE SWITCH STATEMENT LIKE IN THE QUESTION..
PLEASE HELP ME..REALLY APPRECIATED...TQ

hi
A switch works with the byte, short, char, and int primitive data types. So you can simply give the
switch (month) {
            case 1:
                        System.out.println("January");
                        break;
            case 2: {
                        System.out.println("February");
                         break;
            case 3: {
                          System.out.println("March");
                          break;
                         }where month controlls the flow
moreover u can go to http://www.java-samples.com/java/free_calculator_application_in_java.htm
for reference, just replace the if statement with switch with correct syntax

Very frustrated with Mail, please help

Hi All,
First of all, I want to tell you that I just moved from a PC to Mac, but I am very computer savvy so I had no problems moving my emails, addresses and all that to Mail, as well as performing any other tasks on the Mac. However, I have one VERY weird problem. Please bare with me as I explain....
I have 3 (three) email accounts setup in Mail. The two of them work fine. The third one has problems receiving emails, it does NOT receive emails at all.
When I try to setup this account, I get an error that the mail server is not accessible. I thought that the mail server was offline but I still tried to access the mail server through the web access. I COULD access it. Then I tried to receive mail in Mac Mail and I got NO error messages, but I did NOT receive any of my test email messages that I sent myself on that email. I was trying to figure out what the problem was, but with no success. Then I thought I will try accessing the emails through Entourage. I was shocked when Entourage DID recieve the emails from that mail server and that email account. Well, by now I was VERY confused and frustrated. Entourage CAN access the email account, but Mail can NOT access it!??! I am using exaclty the same settings for both and still the result is the same.
I didn't know what else to do, so I called the Apple tech support. They were also confused with the issue. They escalated the issues to the engineers and they told me that the server is an Exchange server and that I should access it as such not on POP. Well , no luck again.
So, to sum it up, I can receive email from this mail account from EVERYWHERE except from Mac Mail. I can also access it from Entourage on this same computer, from the web, from a PC laptop I have, but not from Mac Mail.
PLEASE HELP!!! I don't know what to do any more. I hate to use Entourage because I just moved from a PC to a MAC and I don't want to be using the same Microsoft crap (which unfortunatelly is working properly). Any advice and suggestions are more then welcome.
BTW, I did try all of things that I read in different posts on this forum on similar issues (deleting the "mail" folder in library, etc), but none worked. I also tried uninstalling Mail and installing it again, again no luck.
HELP!
Thanks!
Alex

I have no direct experience with Exchange servers, so take this with a grain of salt, but my understanding is that for Mail to be able to communicate with one, it must be configured to allow IMAP access at the server. See the Mail help topic "Setting up your email accounts," which says in part:
"An Exchange account allows you to connect to your Exchange server via IMAP, and if you enter text in the Outlook Web Access Server field, Mail filters non-email related content from the server. (You can get the text you need to enter from your mail account provider.) For Exchange to work with Mail, Exchange administrators need to configure the Exchange server for IMAP access. Some system administrators may refer to an Outlook Web Access Server as an Internet Information Services (IIS) server."
IOW, if you can't convince the administrators that not everyone in the world uses proprietary Microsoft application "standards" (which of course exist for the good of the world & not just for MS), there isn't much you can do except use the crappy apps that Microsoft owns, along with the standards they enforce ... for the good of the world, of course. :-/

Trying to set up daughter's e-mail - please help!

I set up an AOL e-mail account for my daughter. I have been trying to set it up on her ipod touch and for some reason it doesn't recognize her user name or password. Last week, all was fine. She could access her e-mail for about one day with out issues. But ever since then, we've gotten an error message. I've tried deleting the account & setting it up a new. I powered down the touch - and re-synced it. Still I get "The user name or password for "imap.aol.com" is incorrect". I know it's correct because I logged into AOL after it told me that using the same information & got on OK.
Can someone please help me? Does this have something to do with the fact she has a Kids AOL account? Her e-mail suffix is the same as any other aol account.
Thanks -
Robin

I just spoke with someone from AOL tonight for over 1 hour trying to work this out. Finally he realized it was an aol kids account which I told him several times. He said those accounts can not work on other devices. Which is what I figured. I filled out a comment to AOL stating that they should have this as an option under the parental controls to allow use on ipods. So hopefully AOL will consider this change in policy. I wish I knew this before we opened the account because I probably would have adjusted her age!

Cannot Send Y!Mail through Mail Please Help!

Hi, I've tried everything on the Yahoo help page but I still can't send mail through my Mac mail client but I can receive mails. I tried to use these settings
My Yahoo! Mail address (karty18 (at) yahoo (dot) com)
Here are the basic server settings for Yahoo! Mail:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 995)
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, default port: 25, 465, 587, use authentication)
Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (karty18)
Password: My Yahoo! Mail password (yes, my password is correct)
Still it doesn't work. I also tried the outgoing mail server: "Yahoo! SMTP Server" still no luck.
And finally I tried to use custom port 587 just incase my IP is blocking port 465... no luck still. and for some reason when I select either outgoing server, it says offline in parenthesis but my mail accounts are all online (weird).
I can receive mail alright but I cannot send. Please help me. I don't know what else to do from here. Thanks much.

Some might find this useful.
If you have a .co.uk address with Yahoo instead of .com, you can retrieve and send mail via the mail app using a free yahoo account.
I have been doing this for years.

Recieving duplicate e-mails, Please help!

Hey,
I thought I figured out how to fix this, but I guess not!
I got a BlackBerry Bold (never locked) as a gift while on holiday in the UAE. I registered for their services there and set up my e-mail account through the phone (No carrier, its never locked).
I came back to Canada and subscribed for BB services with my provider (Rogers). I had deleted the e-mail from my phone and re-added it but now I seem to get duplicates of all my recieved msgs from my Gmail account!
Based on what I've read online, apparently my PIN needs to be released or something, but how do I fix this? I hate having to recieve 2 e-mails all the time, it's annoying.
Please help. Your support will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I would like to add that even when I delete my e-mail account through the set-up, I will still recieve e-mails on my Blackberry (and just one e-mail). It seems that it's interconnected with my blackberry. How do I get rid of this?

Cause of the issue
Gmail webmail accounts do not have separate sent items and inbox folders. The Gmail account web page contains a Sent Mail
link on the left side, but this is not a separate folder from the
inbox. Gmail webmail messages are grouped into conversations, resulting
in all sent messages and replies from others appearing as a single
email message entry in the inbox. This allows for easy reading and
viewing on the Gmail web page, but, when integrated with the BlackBerry
Internet Service account, results in copies of sent email messages
arriving on the BlackBerry smartphone as new email messages.
Resolution
To
prevent sent messages from returning to the BlackBerry smartphone each
time, create a filter in the BlackBerry Internet Service account to
block the sending of those messages to the BlackBerry smartphone.
To create a filter, perform the following:
Log
in to the BlackBerry Internet Service account. For instructions on how
to log in to the BlackBerry Internet Service account, see KB03781.
Click the Filters icon next to the integrated Gmail account.
Click Add a Filter to create a new filter.
Configure
the filter so that email messages are not sent to the BlackBerry
smartphone if the email message originates from the Gmail webmail
account integration:
Type a name for the filter into the Filter Name field. For example, My sent Gmail email messages.
Set the Apply filter when field to "FROM" field.
Type the Gmail webmail address into the Contains field. For example, <user name>@gmail.com>.
Select the radio button beside Do not forward messages to device.
Click Add Filter.
Note:
After creating this filter, email messages will not be received on the
BlackBerry smartphone if sent from the Gmail webmail account.

Iphone users cannot text me after switching platforms. Please Help

Ok, So I just started a new job and have been assigned a company phone. My company phone is a Samsung Note 3. I have been using an AT&T iPhone 5. I went a day or so with very little text messages coming on to the phone and was currious why i was not getting responses from friends. After an angry phone call from my boss, I realized I was only getting text messages from Andriod Users. So I gathered my roommates and had them text me to figure why I was not getting texts. The iPhone users could not text me but i could text them. The android users had no issue. I looked at their phones and it was sending the message to me as an iMessage which i wont be able to recieve. I googled the issue and found other users with the same thing. I traded in my phone today so i dont have access to the iPhone any longer.
This is what ive tried:
Logged into iMessage on my Mac:
Went to Preferences --> Accounts --> Unclicked my phone number (and eventually just shut it off all together)
After this: No Change
Logged into iTunes on my Mac:
Went to Itunes Store --> Account --> Itunes in the Cloud --> Unauthorized my iPhone from this section
After this No Change
When to the Apple Support Community
Went to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Clicked on “edit products”
Clicked on the “x” to the right of the product.
Clicked “unregister”
After this: No Change
Went to iforgot.apple.com
I Changed my password, in hopes that it would disconnect my phone
After this: No Change
Grabbed my friends iPhone 5,
Disconnected his apple id and logged into mine
I toggled the iMessage slider to see if it would disconnect.
Logged off the iCloud Account on that device leaving iMessage off
After this: No Change
Called At&T Customer Support (By Far the Most Frustrating)
The guy proceeded to tell me that I should contact all of my iPhone using friends and tell them that every time they text me they need to long press the text bubble and select "Send as Text Message". After 45 mins, I just gave up. The conversation ended with the rep telling me that i should just swich back to iPhone. I talked to his manager and got a months statement credit for that one, so it wasnt a complete loss.
I own 3 macbook pros, a mac mini, a mac pro, 2 ipads, and a ipad mini. Im very frustrated and if I cannot get this resolved, I will seriously reconsider any apple purchase i make in the future.
Please Help!

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755 noted:
If you plan on transferring your SIM card or phone number from an iPhone to a device that does not support iMessage, turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages first. If you do not, other iOS devices may continue to try to send a message using iMessage first, instead only using SMS or MMS.
If you have not turned off iMessage for your phone number before you use it on a non-iOS device, it will be detected by other iOS device as still on iMessage. What you can do is put back your number/SIM on an iPhone then activate then deactivate iMessage once successfully activated to de-register that phone number from iMessage server. Hope it helps.

ITunes sharing just NOT working! Please help!

I can't seem to get iTunes to find shared music on the network, or share my music.
-I'm using iTunes version 6.0.1.3 and Windows XP with SP2
-I have tried adding the ports 3689 and 5353 to the firewall port exceptions
-After researching for awhile on here, I recognized the name Bonjour. I saw it in the firewall port exceptions list. I checked Program Files to make sure it was there, but alas, it was not. I downloaded Bonjour from apple, but still, not working.
Any ideas? I'm positive that I would be able to see shared music if it was working, I just switched computers, and the old one worked fine.
Thanks in advance,
Jess

The only firewall that is in use IS the Windows firewall. Thank you for helping though!
Anymore suggestions?
I probably should reinstall iTunes. If I do, will my library/playlists/smart playlists be totally intact? Like, after the reinstall will it look the same or will I have to reimport everything?
Thanks,
Jess
