Mac OS 10.4 Mail takes longer to receive than on Outlook Express 5

I receive email via Outlook Express 5.0.6 within an hour (but hate to use it). It can take Mac OS 10.4.8 Mail up to 24 hrs longer. Mail Preferences are set to: Check for new mail:” Every 30 min.” Under Accounts>Advanced: “Enable This Account” and “Include when automatically when checking for new mail” are both checked. The ISP is Comcast. What is the problem?

We have the same problem. The user rights under Leopard are not interpreted correctly while the Tiger clients show the correct entries. I´ve posted another topic to that thing...

  • Does Mac OS X in 64 bits takes longer to boot than in 32 bits?

    Hello, Does Mac OS X 10.6.3 in 64 bits mode takes longer to boot than in 32 bits mode?. If I boot Mac OS X in my MacBook Pro 5.1 in 64 bits mode it takes 51.3 sec, and if I boot it in 32 bits mode it takes 33.1 sec. I just want to know if this is normal or not. And in case this is normal I would appreciate it a lot if someone could explain me why it takes longer to boot in 64 bits mode than in 32 bits mode.
    Thank you a lot for any help that you could give me

    Just the opposite for me. My early 2008 Mac Pro definitely boots (and runs) faster in 64 bit mode. As Barry mentioned though, you may not want to do this.
    The main rule is kernel extensions. If you have anything that needs to load on boot that is only 32 bit (mouse, keyboard, scanner or other type of driver/software), then you must boot in 32 bit mode or they won't load.
    As long as all of your boot software is 64 bit compatible, then booting 64 bit is fine. 32 bit software you launch after the OS is up and running will still run as 32 bit with the OS in 64 bit mode.

  • 4" x 6" videos take longer to open than a 3" x 5" vid? Load time affected?

    I think I know the answer to my question but I want to make sure before I go and change the sizes of all my little mini videos:
    Does the speed at which a video opens depend (among other things) on the DIMENSIONS OF THE VIEWING BOX? So that a 3“ x 5” picture takes longer to open than, say, a 4“ X 6” picture?
    Is the difference a noticeable one? If a larger picture means waiting only two more seconds for the video to open and show, then that seems an Ok payoff to me. But if the wait becomes considerably longer, than it probably is not Ok to the visitor.
    Thank you.

    Winston C... I mean at the point where a visitor to my website has already opened the Big Album Index page and clicks onto one of my mini videos, like the Dominatrix Rise Up vid. If I were to make smaller the box in which you see the Dominatrix speaking, would that page open up faster? If yes, then is it substantially faster? Or am I ok just leaving the dimensions of the box alone?

  • Mail takes long till it starts sending

    My Mail takes a long time (ok, about one minute or so) before it starts to send an email. OTOH my iPhone 4 sends the emails instantly. So I wonder, if there's some special reason for that, like maybe a cache or so that should/could be emptied? Thanks for a hint!

    Usually I use a POP account for my email. In addition I have also a MobileMe account. The POP accounts use port 995, the me.com port 993. All the settings are exactly the same on the iMacs and on the iPhone.
    As a test i created a new user and started there from zero - same slowness in mail. Further-on, no matter if I use one of my POP accounts or the me.com for outgoing mail, no difference.
    Both 993 and 995 are incoming ports. What are you using for outgoing ports? The default setting is to try 25, 465, and 587. You may be getting some unusual failure on the first try - probably due to ISP issues. You may want to try specifying a custom port of either 465 or 587. That will bypass the failure and cause it to connect right away. This is on the outgoing port. See my post above to find out where to locate this information.

  • Mail Takes Forever to Receive

    My e-mail sometimes takes hours to receive. I am using gmail. Is anyone else having this problem. Is there a solution?

    If a received message is not available at the incoming mail server to download or access for hours after the message was sent, you need to take this up with Gmail technical support.

  • Iphone 4s 5.0.1 SMS takes longer to receive

    Hello,
    im using iPhone 4s with iOS 5.0.1 and its my first iphone so i dont know if this is normal or not. Let me explain:
    Sometimes it takes hours to receive an sms or several, i dont if its a bug or what. Normally it takes longer to get a normal sms text than other devices, iv compared with Nokias etc it takes longer like 1 ou 2 minutes longer its strange for a TOP notch device like this and a simple task.
    Its very boring, apart for oither well knowed bugs that i have in the iOS device version, this one is the strangest. And also the Network operator signal peaks are irregular, not good signal in some cases and the phone calls drop and not hearing nicely like my old phones..
    Please correct this, its kind of lame for a Phone to have these errors, if i wanted an iPod i would have get one.
    Not looking good Apple, stop releasing noob updates and jailbrake failsafes and concentrate on real bugs, its ridiculuous like i said. I have all the other 5.0.1 bugs, reported ones, 2 rings on SMS, a second 2 rings 2 or 3 minutes of the same sms just the ring the sms doesnt repeat, and other stupid bugs...
    I though Apple was not noobish like Android, thats why i picked Apple device
    Thanks for reading

    I can do better than that, the VODAFONE Portugal as a software called Vodafone WebPhone, where you have a virtual phone connected online. You can receive the SMS there, normally the software gets the message 5 seconds before Nokias for example, but with iphone you cant imagine the diference, like 1 minute never less than that.
    Yesterday it was hours it was not normal, but a phone cant have this problems, the messeges must be instant SMS, and evey rest of them. I bought a top notch telephone not a portable internet device only
    Thanks for searching in my behalf i also searched and got nothing, but maybe its normal for iphones i dont know.

  • How do i set up an e-mail account on my ipad 2 using outlook express 6

    i'm having problems receiving and sending e-mail on my ipad 2. My existing e-mail account on my windows pc is using outlook express 6. I've entered all the pop settings but nothing happens

    No error messages or anything? If your OE is still running and is using POP, there won't be any email for you to retrieve with your iPad because OE has downloaded the email to your computer. To sync email between your computer and your iPad you need to use IMAP settings on both your computer and iPad, not POP.

  • Mail takes long time to arrive

    Hello Experts, I am using 10.8 server for host my web sites and email.
    I created host name for for my server called mail.fm-host.biz and updated the  pointed site from domain control pannel  in domain reseller, and i see the it looks like working, my domain name is www.fm-host.biz,
    I have created few email accounts on server and try to connect from outside, connection works, but the problem is when i receive email , it does not arrive fast, some times it take more than 10 hours to showed up in my inbox,
    But some emails quickly showed up,
    what seems to be the problem ?

    Check the SMTP mail server logs for potential message arrivals, and see if the messages are arriving and are then receiving an SMTP 450 "not now" status returns, and having to be retried.
    Also, your public DNS is incorrect
    $ dig +short MX  fm-host.biz
    10 mail.fm-host.biz.
    $ dig +short mail.fm-host.biz.
    193.87.72.140
    $ dig +short -x 193.87.72.140
    $ dig +short www.fm-host.biz.
    193.87.72.140
    $
    This is what I was referencing in this previous thread.
    There's no reverse DNS (address to domain name) which means other mail servers can and variously will see your server as a spam engine.  These DNS checks are effective, and are becoming increasingly common parts of spam filtering on many mail servers.  The host names involved are also mismatched.  Pick one — mail or www — and use it consistently.  Your choices here are to fix the local reverse DNS translation with your ISP, or to configure and use a mail relay or mail hop service, or to have some number of mail servers simply decide to drop messages arriving from and sometimes simply not sending messages to your mail server.
    Inbound messages will be subject to greylisting, pending your server learning those remote servers you communicate with.  This triggers the 450 status mentioned above.  Greylisting is an effective anti-spam technique as the spam engines don't typically retry mail messages and real mail servers do.   (Yes, it's possible to disable Greylisting entirely and to whitelist specific servers that you trust without waiting for greylisting to train itself.)

  • Mac Client Log on Window Takes Long Time

    Mac 10.6.x client is successfully joined the Windows Server 2008 based domain. But it’s taking too much time (approx. 5 to 10 minutes) to shows the “Others” option (using that log on by AD user) in login window on Mac client. Has anyone idea why it’s taking that long time.

    Are you connected wirelessly or wired?

  • L.S. The download of video presentations, added to e- mails, takes long (50Kb/sec) How can this be speeded up?

    This problem occurs at Hotmail. Not at Telfort mail.
    I use Windows xp

    I'm using the tools which fullfill my needs best.. so, if the PC offers you "better" results, use it.. no dogma..
    delay: sure, the electronics have to digitize the video.. a process of high computation = time/delay ..
    quality: a TV signal fills about a quarter of my Mac's screen (or less) .. looking at it in "fullscreen" you have to blow up.. .every pixel get 4x4 pixel = low quality...
    and: you go from digital to analogue to digital .. there HAS to be a loss of quality ...
    BTV offers full-screen, doesn't it..?

  • ICloud account takes longer to send than other accounts.

    I have several accounts configured on my iPhone 4. I've got Yahoo, Gmail and Outlook.com. I just created an iCloud mail account yesterday. So far it takes a fee minutes before my email from my iCloud account gets sent while I have no problems of delay whatsoever in sending with any other of my accounts. How come?

    I was having the same problem; but I've found a workaround that might help. Here's what to do:
    Set up your iCloud account on your iPhone/iPad with whichever email address you want as your main one; either .me or .mac.
    Set up a Gmail account if you don't already have one. It doesn't matter if you don't ever intend you use it for sending email.
    Go to your 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' settings on your iPhone/iPad, and add the Gmail account if you don't already have one set up.
    Go into your Gmail settings and under 'Account' list all the email addresses you want  want to send from as your secondary option. In my case, I had already set up iCloud with .mac so I've listed the .me one in my Gmail settings. Put a comma and space between each email address. I've got three email addresses listed here. (See screen grab). Oddly, I didn't seem to have the comma key available on my iPad, so I listed my email addresses in 'Notes' and cut/pasted them in.
    Now when you send an email, you should have all those addresses available to send from.
    Hope this helps.
    Tom.

  • Would a 64GB iPad take longer to sync than 32GB?

    I have been using 16GB iPhones for a few years and am getting ready to buy an iPad. 
    I have a LOT of music and movies and am really leaning towards buying a 64gb model so I will be able to keep more with me
    (I have limited access to 3G and to WIFI sites so "streaming" it or using iCloud often wouldn't work for me).
    My only concern about getting the 64GB model is... I am wondering if it will take significantly longer to sync a 64GB iPad than a 32GB model.
    Anybody have any real-world experience with this sort of thing?
    I know there are going to be a lot of variables involved....
    I'm just curious how much does the total memory capacity affect sync times?

    Wow - thanks for a quick reply!
    I understand what you're saying.
    Theoretically if I have two units - a 64GB unit and a 32GB unit and I am loading up 25GB of music they should take the same amount of time to sync.
    Theoretically.
    But the real world doesn't always work out like expected.
    So - I'm looking for firsthand comments/experience with this.
