When problem not resolved i also copied that email db file in other Mac book with 200 GB free space but same process first verify then rebuild then message it cannot rebuild. Please guide.

    I've been rebuilding Entourage Identities for years for clients. Most fail because they do not have enough free space. See this article

    Hi SLCfromMadison,
    This is the message that you'll receive when your Apple ID is signed into on an iPhone. If you haven't done so, the article linked below details a number of steps that can help verify the security of your Apple ID should you think that an unauthorized person has access to it.

    Who can shed some light on my ongoing connection problem.
    After upgrading my iPad Air with IOS 7.06, I could no longer connect to the internet.
    I have 2 MacBooks Air, 1 ipad mini and one iPhone 4S running on the same network, and they are all connected to the net and function well.
    So I cleaned up the ipad completely, installed the latest firmware and reinstalled my apps : no connection.
    I tried all things of resets and forgets. No result.
    I have been fondling with my Airport Extreme 5 , but that did not help much.
    This morning I went to a neighbor , hooked my ipad air on his network, typed the password and the thing all worked fine.
    I have tried to connect the ipad air as an ethernet client, but that did not work. „Not enough power“ was the statement
    Ideas anyone ?

    Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work.  Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
    Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
    Et voila.... everything is back in working order,

  • Using TimeCapsule to backup 4 Macbook Airs, that are hardwired (ethernet) to office network

    Our current setup includes 4 MacBook Airs that are hardwired to an office network that services 100+ office personnel.  We are simply looking for an efficient way to backup all MacBook Airs "automagically".  If we continue to hardwire to the existing network, is it possible to also "wirelessly backup" using Time Machine while connected through ethernet?  How might we go about this?

    Hardwiring Macbook Airs must be fun.. they don't have proper ethernet ports only usb to ethernet adapters.
    If there is a file store somewhere in the network that can be formatted HFS+ or create a drive image that is HFS+ you might be able to backup using Time Machine without doing anything. Even with a Time Capsule you could ethernet connect it to the network and point TM backups to it.
    Generally it is better for your setup to stick to one setup.
    But you can do what you want if you must!!
    You need to run two different network IP address ranges.. so for example if your ethernet network is 192.168.x.x then the TC on its default address 10.0.1.1 will be fine.. You cannot use this if the main network is the same ip range so you might need to fix the TC to another network range.
    It is easier to leave the TC in default router mode.. don't worry about errors that it cannot get wan connection. Just set to ingore.
    In each air, set a static IP for wireless.. so using the example at default.. each air would have ip address, eg, 10.0.1.10 for the first one.. 10.0.1.20, for the second and so on.
    Set the subnet to 255.255.255.0
    Do not set gateway (router) or dns.
    The air can now reach the TC.. if you are close enough it should connect on the 5ghz band.. you can force this with using a different wireless name for 5ghz.
    Or split them to have some on 2.4ghz and some on 5ghz.
    It will then work happily without affecting their connection to the main ethernet network.
    Point Time Machine to the TC and start the backup.. do each one, when the last one completes.. as the initial backup will take a few hours and it is pointless simply getting them all to fight together to get access. Once the initial backup is done further backups are fairly small incremental assuming the computers are not changing lots of big files.
    Also remember this is a backup in a single disk device.. it has no backup itself.. anything you delete from a computer will delete on the backup eventually.. when TM is good and ready.

  • I have a macbook air/ipad/phone, etc.  I use my macbook for my home business and bought a TC.  My husband does not want it to be our default wifi.  Does it have to be?

    I have a macbook air/ipad/phone, etc.  I use my macbook for my home business and bought a TC to do backups.  My husband does not want it to be our default wifi/modem as he is exclusively a PC user.  Does it have to be?  I thought it did everything wirelessly??  I don't want to start disconnecting our modem/router etc as we are all set up with wireless printing and backups for that computer.  If I have to muck around with it I am thinking of not bothering??

    The TC will connect to your existing modem/router using an Ethernet cable. You will not have to use the wireless on the TC....you can even turn it off if you wish.
    Backups to the TC will occur over your existing wireless.
    Connect from a LAN <-> port on the modem/router to the WAN "O" port on the TC. Locate the TC anywhere that the Ethernet cable will reach. You can run the cable up to 300 feet with no loss.
    Things will not automatically configure themselves. You will have to do some mucking around....no more than you would if you were installing the TC anywhere else.
    Configure the TC to "create a wireless network". Once it is setup, you can ignore the TC wireless, or turn it off.

  • Just bought Mountain Lion from the app store and was installing on my MacbookPro, Now my computer is froze up and it says my HD is damaged and cant be repaired,Has anyone had this problem?

    Just bought Mountain Lion from the app store on my Macbook Pro. In the middle of installion it froze up my computer saying that the installation failed,
    It says my Hard Drive is damaged and cant be repaired. Has anyone had this problem? Im completely screwed...Thanks Apple!!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities,
    I had a similar issue and it was an easy fix for me. First you need to log out of your account completely in the Mac App Store. Quit the application. Re-open the Mac App Store. Click log-in, enter your Apple-ID and password. Now when the screen pops-up that has all of your billing/credit card information on it DO NOT select done. Instead select View my Account, then select View hidden purchases. There you should be able to find iPhoto. Hope this helps if not let me know. I'm still searching solutions for you.

  • Till my last software update on my MacBook Air I have been able to use my iPhone as a modem via USB. Now it's not working anymore. Other functions via USB are still fine. Any ideas???

    Till my last software update on my MacBook Air I have been able to use my iPhone as a modem via USB. Now it's not working anymore. Other functions via USB are still fine. Any ideas???

    The Mac was recently upgraded so it is the Mac, or is it?
    Looking for a common denominator:  I'l start with wi-fi as the common communication medium.
    Known:
    A) Broken: iPhone —> wi-fi —> Mac.
    B) Broken: iPhone —>USB—> Mac.
    C) Broken: iPhone —> Bluetooth —> Mac.
    D) Working: Mac —> USB —> other USB devices.
    Unknowns:
    E) Test Mac —> wi-fi —> a non-iPhone router.
    F) Test iPhone —> wi-fi —> another wi-fi device.
    Given not A, not B and not C either the Mac or the iPhone could be the culprit.
    1) E        |  F        : Non sequitur (deepens the mystery).
    2) not E  |  F        : The Mac is the common denominator.
    3) E        |  not F  : The iPhone is the common denominator.
    4) not E  |  not F  : All heck broke loose.
    For case 1:  It would be something on the Mac that prevents it talking to the iPhone through three media even though it can talk to other routers over wi-fi.  That would be weird indeed, given the iPhone is talking to other wi-fi devices with no trouble. 
    For case 2:  All of the Mac’s intranet media broken (wi-fi, Bluetooth, and wired-USB) and at least wi-fi works on the iPhone.  Something weird is going on in the Mac.
    For case 3:  The iPhone router function is broken.  Upgrade the iOS?  Test using another iPhone?
    For case 4:  Throw everything in the trash and start over.

  • I am unable to use Iboost app, when i try to use it, I get an error "iBoost App is damaged" and reinstall from app store. I get the same error even after installing a fresh copy. Need help to resovle this issue.

    “iBoostUp.app” is damaged and can’t be opened. Delete “iBoostUp.app” and download it again from the App Store.
    Because of the above error, i am not able to use iboostup application. I have even tried to reinstall from app store, but the issue still continues.
    Need help.

    Perhaps the damaged file is an auxiliary file outside the app bundle and stored elsewhere on your Mac. Try deleting the app and all it files with an app for that purpose. Afree one is AppCleaner;

  • HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

    Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • If my Adobe Muse and Air apps are  both up to date as of today and I cannot open a Muse file, what are my options? I get an error message regarding the Progress Window showing and then Muse crashes.

    If my Adobe Muse and Air apps are both up to date (as of today) and I cannot open a Muse file, what are my options? While Muse is relinking assets I get an error message regarding the Progress Window "showing" and then Muse crashes.

    Hi there,
    Do you get this error while opening a particular file or all files?
    Please try opening a different .muse file, and check if it does the same?
    Ar you opening a .muse which is saved on a network drive?
    Thanks.
