Lion Mail - RSS Feeds quit updating

I just came back from vacation and my RSS feeds in Lion Mail won't update. When I click on one, it's empty and when I tell it to individually update or Update All, it tries and nothing updates. Any ideas? Thanks!

i was able to find this on another website...
CXL: Safari fails to display RSS feeds when CPU is under load or free disk space on system drive is small. That pretty much sums it up. It's annoying, too, because if Time Machine is doing its hourly backup or I'm converting video files, Safari's RSS display repeatedly fails with the same error message: "Mach errore 268451843 - (ipc/rcv) timed out" or "NSMachErrorDomain:268451843". Under the same conditions, Safari fetches and displays normal webpages perfectly fine. Filed: 5610533.
but this doesn't make sense, I have about 4.5 GB free on my startup drive....
i also found this apple thread which is about the same issue, but also has no resolution..

if anyone figures anything out please help! thank you!

Mail RSS Feeds Stopped Updating

Hi there,
In the past week, I've noticed that my Mail RSS feeds have stopped updating and I'm also unable to open/subscribe to new RSS feeds.
When I try to click on a new RSS feed in Safari, I get the following error message:
Safari can’t open the page “feed://www.vanilladays.com/feed/”. The error was: “Operation could not be completed. (Mach error 268435460 - (ipc/send) timed out)” (NSMachErrorDomain:268435460) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
In parallel to this, I've noticed that Safari is is also taking around 5 minutes to load (the is normal once loaded). I've got a separate topic about this.
Any ideas on what I can do to fix this? I was having these problems before I updated OSX yesterday.
Thanks for any help,
Ste

Where is Mail RSS feeds on Lion 10.8?

Please let me know where to find Mail RSS feeds using Lion 10.8 and Mail 6.0.
Thank you.

RSS has been completely removed from Mail and Safari in OS X 10.8. There are several third-party RSS readers available; search MacUpdate for "RSS".
BTW, this forum is for Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. The OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion forum is here:

RSS Feeds not updating in safari (and Mail)

I have just realized that my RSS feeds (bookmark bar) stopped updating a few days ago. If I "view all RSS articles," nothing more recent than several days ago appears. Even when I hit "Update Now" under actions, I get nothing. I know there are recent articles becasue I sync bookmarks across two MBAs and the other is updating just fine.
As an aside, my mail feed is not updating reliably either.
I updated to 10.7.2 on friday, but my feed worked until Saturday morning. Any idea what might be casuing this issue? I'm stumped.
Thanks.

I have a similar problem. Some of my safari RSS feeds are updating whilst some aren't however if I go to the website and click on feeds again, it shows the latest ones. I think there's a bug in safari. I am running the latest version of Safari & OS X (as of this date). If anyone has a fix on this, it is greatly appreciated.

RSS Feed - Comments Update

Is there anyway I can get my RSS feed to update when comments are left and not just when a new thread /entry has been submitting.
Ie I want my mac mail to notify me every time someone has left a comment on my blog entry.
Hope that makes sense and thanks for any help in advance

Thank you Roger, Im getting closer to understanding.
However, I am still confused how I can accomplish this as you state with my custom domain involved, because my feed location changes when my domain is pointed to either host.
I gather that I need to point my domain back to my MobileMe site to get my old feed working once again. Therefor the 'mattplay.com' part of my original feed will work and the iTS will be able to find my feed at http://www.mattplay.com/Matt_Play/Podcast/rss.xml. The original feed is still sitting in the same location on my iDisk but is now not accessable via 'mattplay.com' but only the default MobileMe folder url hirachy.
Yet this is where I am confused... Once I point my domain back to MobileMe, my new feed at SquareSpace will by default change back to http://www.mattplay.squarespace.com/podcast/rss.xml. So if I then submit that feed to the iTS to get it working, plus I type that feed into my old rss, wouldnt the new feed stop working later, after I redirect my domain back to SquareSpace? Because it would then change my new podcast feed back to being http://www.mattplay.com/podcast/rss.xml again.
Am I making sense?
Also I think the reason my new feeds currently are bringing up 'you do not have permission' errors is that I currently have acces to the podcast page restricted while I have my site 'under construction'
Thanks in advance.

RSS - Live bookmark failed to load - Firefox, RSS feeds not updating

I am new to this forum, and I figure this has been covered before. However, I'm not finding an answer.
I have a Beehive workspace and go to Recent Activity to subscribe to the RSS feed. When using Firefox, I am prompted for my username and password. The RSS feed works until I quit Firefox. After restarting Firefox, I get the "Live bookmark failed to load" message.
If I try to access the feed with Safari, I have the option to enter my username and password, and then save that info in my keychain. I'm trying to determine if the reason the RSS feed isn't updating because of some authentication problem.
People using Internet Explorer have also reported problems with Beehive workspace RSS feeds not updating, so I'm trying to find a solution.
Not providing reliable RSS feeds is slowing down adoption of our workspace, and people aren't wanting to use the workspace until I've resolved the RSS issue.
Can you point me to a solution or to information on how to resolve the RSS updating issues.
Thanks.

HI,
The RSS feed is password protected as you have to be an authenticated user to access the complete system. The issue seems to be in the browser - if it does not trigger a check for username/password and then prompt if not set there is a li9mited amount we can do.
We are working on getting the subscriptions inside beehive working which will generate notifications but that will not be available for a week or so.

I am trying to recover my bookmarks and mail RSS feeds+folders.

I had to do a clean install of Lion. I almost have everything back but I am missing a few of my backup files. If I can locate these remaining items, I will be done finally!
Safari bookmarks
Mail RSS feeds and mail folders
Oh
And it would be nice to locate my iTune's Artwork for my library items. Not not a deal breaker, there are just so many of them to hunt and peck for if I decide to do so.
I have looked everywhere I can think of for these with no success.

I ended up having the Apple Genius bar work on this problem for me. The plists are now hidden in the Lion software and they had to go into the basic language portion of the system and execute commands to locate and retrieve the information. However, I do have all the information back.

RSS feeds wont update

Anyone else having a problem with the RSS feeds not updating? Ive tried refreshing and it just says updating on the bottom and never goes away. I tried restarting my phone with no luck either. Ive checked all the settings and made sure it autoupdates and is synced, but still nothing. My phone is stuck on Monday the 22nd and my fiancee's hasnt worked since July. Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated!

@dysfunkshun Thanks for posting. The best way to resolve your issue is to follow these steps:
Go to settings> applications> manage applications> do a force stop> then clear data.
Then, open the news app> press menu> choose settings. Make sure "Update when opened" is checked. Touch "Accounts & Sync" and make sure "Sync news" is checked and "Update when opened" is checked.
I hope this helps. Thanks.

Mail rss feed has stopped updating

my RSS feed in Mail has stopped updating. The last updates were on August 10. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Same here for a couple of weeks now. Only thing that helps is restarting mail. As seen from all the complaints here, it is a random problem and is continuing for some time now. And i think there will be no help from Apple since they have decided in there wisdom to drop the RSS feeds in the mail app all together from the newer OSX versions. I'm on OSX 10.6.8.

Mail RSS Feed Problem

Hello, I've got a problem with my RSS feeds in Mail and it's driving me nuts. I had a number of feeds which were all working properly and suddenly my craigslist feeds stopped. All previous and new feeds still work but the craigslist feeds give me the error "There was an error updating the RSS feed “santabarbara.craigslist.org” - The requested URL was not found on this server."
I thought it might be a problem with craigslist but their feed works fine in my Firefox Live Bookmarks. It only appears to not be working in Mail. It was around the time of the 10.6.4 update but I can't be certain. I'm thinking it could be some sort of cache issue for just that site but don't know how to check.
One of the feeds is http://santabarbara.craigslist.org/med/index.rss
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Rob

When you say you tried Safari & Firefox to read feeds from CraigsList, do you mean just loading the RSS URL's (e.g. http://santabarbara.craigslist.org/med/index.rss ) into the browser directly? For myself, CraigsList RSS feeds don't load in Safari 5 either but it does seem to work via Firefox 3.6.3. I bet this might have been the WebKit (Safari 5) update that broke something.
And yes, my CraigsList RSS feeds broke in Apple Mail too (which is what brought me here). I filed a Radar bug ( rdar://problem/8161076 ) to alert Apple internal people.

RSS FEEDS NOT UPDATING

the very same has begun to happen to me (as of today). all of my rss feeds show up in mail, but they won't update. rss works in safari though for me. rebuilding the mailbox dosn't work either.
I even tried deleting the feeds and then re-subscribing, but that didn't work either.

Mail RSS won't update

I'm subscribed to a bunch of RSS feeds in Mail, but they have stopped updating. I know the feeds are working, because I get the updates in Firefox, but I prefer to get them in mail. Manually updating doesn't help. Any ideas?

Rebooted and seems to work...
Sorry for disturbing :P

How to Export Mail RSS feeds to another reader

How do I go about exporting RSS feeds I have in Mail into another reader like NetNewsWire?
Thanks.

Hi Purple Cat,
Have you considered using New New Wire as a bridge between google reader and apple mail?
1) download NetNewsWire
2) configure NetNewsWire as default RSS reader
3) open NetNewsWire
4) Enable Assentive Devices
5) run terminal command to add RSS feed to NetNewsWire
6) verified correct feed to add in NewNewsWire
7) synced with google reader.
1) NetNewsWire download, put in applications folder.
2)open safari, go to safari menu, click preferences, when preferences open chose RSS. Set the pulldown menu default RSS reader to NetNewsWire
3) open NetNewsWire, make sure it's open, with no dialog box being displayed.
4) open system preferences, Click on Universal Access, check "enable access to assisted devices"
4) Open terminal, paste in the fallowing command, then press return:
IFS=$'\n';for i in $(find ~/Library/Mail/RSS/ -name "Info.plist");do open $(grep "<string>http://" $i | sed "s/.*$http[^<]*$.*/\1/;s/http/feed/"); osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke return'; sleep 20; done; say done;
NOTE: while this command runs do not click on any thing. it will take about 20 seconds between adding each RSS feed. if your speakers are on and your volume loud enough, you should hear the computer say 'done' after adding all the RSS feeds.
5) in NetNewsWire verify all the RSS are good to go, remove any you do not wish to add to google reader.
6) when your sure your ok to have the feed in NetNewsWire added to google reader:
in netnewswire go to preferences, click on the syncing icon, put in your google user name and password, Click Merge Subscriptions button, Then check "sync with google reader.
