Mail App and RSS and Snow Leopard

How do I add an RSS feed to my Snow Leopard Mail app?

I have done that and it does not seem to work. I have even replicated this on another MacBook with Snow Leopard. I don't think this is a problem with the ASA because it was working fine before. I think there is something wrong with Snow Leopard since I have tried multiple VPN clients and even the built in SL Cisco VPN client.

Mail app and Snow Leopard, Mountain Lion and Mavericks

I have, and use, 3 different Macs, an older MacMini running Snow Leopard, an older MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion and a new MacBook Pro running Mavericks. My personal email account, setup using the Mail.app, works fine on Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion. On the MBP running Mavericks, I setup the Mail.app using the same settings as on Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion. It doesn't work. Nothing but timeouts.
I've read a lot about the problems with Mavericks and IMAP and updated Mavericks apps, including Mail. Still no go. I'm not so much asking for help as registering that the IMAP problems aren't fixed.
But if anyone has some ideas, I'm listening.
Thanks all!
Brenda

I'd check to see if the latest version of the plug-ins are Snow Leopard compatible or not, unless you have a really large number of plug-ins to deal with, where you could just see what's broke and what's not, post upgrade. But beware of retaining the old ones. For example, 10.6 Mail broke the GPG-Mail plug-in that works under 10.5.x. Search the Snow Leopard Mail forum using the search phrase "GPG Mail" OR GPGMail OR "GPG-Mail" or other mail plug-in names of interest to you.

Lion won't operate my app and snow leopard came with my MacBook Pro

I installed Lion without checking to see if it supported my "can't do without" app. Now I'm in a panic. One remedy is to reinstall Snow Leopard, but it came with my new laptop and I don't have any disks. Is there a solution to that problem? Is Lion just out of the question, never to be used? Help!
Thanks to all.

Your new computer came with Snow Leopard installer discs. If you've lost them you can purchase replacements at Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775. Or you can purchase a copy of Snow Leopard at any Apple Store for $29.00.
To reinstall Snow Leopard you will have to first erase the hard drive. I hope that you have backups of your files. If not then be sure to make one before reinstalling Snow Leopard.

Google mail outage and Snow Leopard's mail/address book bugs. Coincidence?

I'm going out on a limb here, but it just occurred to me, reading through all the problems people are having with Snow Leopard's upgrade to Mail and Address book AND the Gmail outages last week. Many of us had our preferences set to sync with Google (and Yahoo, although Yahoo doesn't seem to be a problem . . . yet). I know that when I did my first sync after the upgrade, all **** broke loose in my Address book, with double and triple entries, inability to update entries, address book in Mail is different than the Address Book application, proper. Etc, etc.
And all of my problems were duplicated in Google's address book. I deleted the link between the two, and reinstalled Mail and Address book applications from the Snow Leopard install disk. That stopped the sync problems (screwed up my .Mac, royal, the first time. Fortunately I had a good archive and back up. But Time machine was useless in this case.) But, Address book and Mail are still very buggy.
Any way . . . I'm wondering if the problems at Google, considering the coincidence of time line, might have something to do with this upgrade and the number of Apple users attempting to upgrade and sync.
Just a thought. Probably no connection.
Thanks, I hope Apple gets this fixed soon. It's very frustrating.

Virtual Desktop Apps and Snow Leopard Upgrade

I'm currently running most recent version of Parallels Desktop and I'm concerned that when I upgrade to Snow Leopard I will lose the use of PD until Parallels' updates their software. Unfortunately, I need to use Windows OS for school! Not much on Parallels' website yet.
I'm just wondering if I should wait to upgrade until parallels folks catch up?

According to http://kb.parallels.com/en/6637
Parallels Desktop 4:
Parallels Desktop 4.0 is compatible with Snow Leopard and can be installed on Snow Leopard Host, please make sure you are using the latest available build 3844. You might, however, experience some minor issues. We will release fully compatible Parallels Desktop 4 build to be installed on Snow Leopard soon.
We have following know issues with PD4 build 3844 and Mac OS X Snow Leopard:
1. Host Snow Leopard.
- QuickLook plugin crashes when trying to do preview on PVM bundle (crash invisible for user)
- Updater download but fail to install PD4 updates (workaround – close autoupdater and run installer manually)
- Mounter/Explorer fail to open PD4 disk images
- iPhone client fail to connect
- Taking snapshots very slow on host Snow Leopard
- Opening a web link from Windows in Mac Safari using Shared Internet Applications feature results in appending garbage to the link
- Snow Leopard 64bit host KP when connecting USB device
Depending how important windows is to you it might be worth waiting.

Images dont show up in mail.app after upgrade to Snow Leopard

So, this is kinda bizarre. None of my images in any emails show up in mail.app after i upgraded to Snow Leopard. This is despite that in mail.app preferences I have 'Display remote images in html email' selected. I've tried to unselect / select it, as well as trashing my com.apple.mail.plist and starting again to no avail.
Lastly, I have removed any and all bundles I had installed too. Any thoughts?

I have the same issue. Anyone know why?

Dual boot drive - Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard - Correct order to load software /apps?

Hi
I want to create a dual boot drive for Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard as some of my hardware (is not supported in Mountain Lion).
I am happy how to do this, I just want to know if there is a correct way to install software and apps.
My plan was to do a clean install of both using two partitions, the larger going to ML and smaller one for SL. I was going to install SL from the DVD and then after updating from 10.6. to 10.6.8 and download ML from the app store and install on the larger partition.
Do I install all the software I use like Final Cut, Aperture, iLife (for Garageband) etc on the ML or SL partition or on both. Also, is there a better way / practise of the order software updates / apps and boxed software should be installed when doing a clean machine install.
Thanks in advance.
Matt

Thanks mende1
So, if I have software I need to use on both ML and SL - for example Final Cut as I have a Canopus AVDC box which is not supported in ML but only SL, do I need to install the same software in both OS?
I usually open apps using spotlight and didn't know if it would software / apps would open if already installed on the other partition?
Thanks again
Matt

I have a Mac i5 and need to download the application 'Numbers' but everytime I try to do so, it says can't do as the ver 2.2 for the app needs new software 'Snow Leopard'. I don't want to upgrade but dont know what to do??

If your profile is correct you're already on the final version of Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Sure it wasn't Lion it was asking for?
If that's the only version available on the app store, you'll need to source a copy of the iWork '09 DVD - not cheap now - only available via Amazon or eBay etc.

Mail with leopard on one and snow leopard on another?

I have Leopard on my MBP and Snow Leopard on my new iMac. When I went to open Mail on the iMac it asked if I wanted to convert all my mail. If I do it, will I still be able to read it from my MBP?

Hi
Yes, the SL upgrade won't affect your mail on any other computers.

10.6.7, hardware failure but the hard drive is intact. I can access the hard drive via Linux. Need to get mail from Mail.app and from Entourage 2004.

I need to know a couple of things, but y'all may not have all the answers I need.
First, I need to know how to retrieve the mail files from Mail.app and from Entourage 2004. I don't know if this is a valid asusmption, but in my experience with Windows, I know that Outlook keeps everything in a single monolithic .PST file. Is this the case with either Mail.app or with Entourage?
Second, I need to know how to access said mail files in a Linux mail app. The mail from Mail.app is more important than that from Entourage, so it has to take priority. Will I need some sort of converter program, or is there enough similarity between Mail.app and one of the Linux mail applications that I can simply import it? (BTW, I'm running Ubuntu Linux 11.04 on my Linux netbook. I wish there was some way I could get Snow Leopard on here.)
Any advice on any of this problem will be extremely helpful. Thanks.

Direct install MacBuntu (based upon Ubuntu 11.04)

I have it running on one of my single core netbooks.
WIth your other problem, just borrow a Mac temporariy, drag a enclosure to a Apple Store and use one of theirs, they don't mind as they have Deep Freeze installed on all their machines so changes don't stick upon rebooting.

Cannot sort emails sent from Mail App and Exchange

When trying to sort emails on Outlook in Windows, lets say by "Flag", emails coming from a mac using mail app and exchange get placed at the top of the list.
Have tried sending emails from the same account via webmail and iphone and they get sorted correctly.
Anyone has had this problem?

So, Here's what happens:
1) Send email from Laptop (Snow Leopard) with Exchange Integration
2) Send email from iPhone (3.1) with Exchange Integration
In Outlook 2003 sort by flag (neither of these messages are flagged). Any email sent from the Snow Leopard is sorted first in the Unflagged category in Outlook. Any of the email sent from the iPhone is sorted normally.
There's no differences in the headers to cause these to sort differently. The only headers that differ are the Date, Subject/Thread-Topic, Thread-Index, Message-ID, x-ems-stamp. But, in the Message-ID it has the same domain.
Both Snow Leopard and iPhone are configured to use the same Exchange OWA/OWS.

In limbo between Leopard and Snow Leopard - stupidly didn't back up

I've got an old-school black MacBook, about four years old now. I never cared enough to upgrade it to Snow Leopard, but now I want Lion. So, I borrowed my parents' five-license Snow Leopard install disc and started off on the journey to upgrade to Snow Leopard, download the App Store update, then download and install Lion. I didn't get far.
First, let me say that I didn't back up my hard drive. Like an idiot. Yes, I know it was stupid, so there's no need to say anything. My previous installs (a few clean re-installs) have gone without a hitch, so I figured I'd trust Apple and just run the installation without backing up. Dumb.
The Snow Leopard installation started fine, but was interrupted when the installer said the install failed. Restart, try again. Booting from the install DVD, things seemed to be going fine a second time around -- picked my language, got to the install set-up screen, picked Macintosh HD as my installation drive. And then things stopped working. The installer said my HD could not be written to and that it needed repair. So I went to Disk Utility to try that. Repair Disk wasn't available, so I clicked Verify Disk. That got interrupted when it said the disk needed to be repaired, after which the Repair Disk button was clickable. Tried to repair, but apparently my HD is screwed beyond the capabilities of Disk Utility.
I tried to reboot the MacBook from the HD, which Disk Utility said still had Leopard running on it. The computer wouldn't boot up. Safe Boot didn't work. So, without any other real options, I thought I'd try my luck by just trying the install again. Booted up from the install DVD, and ran into the same issues. Didn't magically fix itself, of course. So my MacBook is stuck in limbo between Leopard and Snow Leopard, won't boot from the HD and won't let me repair the disk when booted from the DVD. What do I do?
I plan to try a couple third-party disk-utility programs tomorrow (8/25/11) to recover the files on my HD. There's not much I care about on there (just some iPhone photos and my resume, really), so doing a clean wipe of the HD and installing Snow Leopard is an option. But I'd of course rather be able to recover my personal files. Is this possible at this point?
Another question I have regarding a clean wipe: If I end up having to clean off the HD and lose all my data, I'll lose the iTunes configuration for my iPhone. Will iTunes be able to import my apps and settings from my phone if I plug it in?
Thank you very much.

Problem using text to speech with Pages 09 and snow leopard

Hi,
I am writing a large document and use the start speaking function often to hear parts of it read back after I write it.The speech sounds great for a page or two and then starts to become choppy and skips words and eventually becomes inaudible except for a few sputters. I would like to be able to listen to the entire document when I am done and would like to either solve the sputtering problem or find a new app that will allow a long paper to be read back by the computer. This problem is consistent on my macbook(2010) as well as my iMac(2009).
Thanks for any suggestions in advance.

I have to constantly reboot/restart between Lion on my New Thunderbolt Mini and Snow Leopard off and External Drive.
Why? There is no good way to do what you're doing.

Anyone using Lion and Snow Leopard? I will be soon.

I will soon be using both Lion and Snow Leopard on my newly upgraded hybrid hard drive.I know that I should need to partition the drive into three 1 for Lion 1 for SL and 1 for data/applications.
The problem is how is how much space should I give each partition?
Has anyone done this before or have any good ideas how to go about it?
Some extra info:
I am currently using a MacBook Pro (mid 2009 13")
I am currently using Lion OS X v10.7.4
The new drive is 750GB Seagate Momentus XT 7200rpm 8GB(solid-state) hybrid drive
The soon to be replaced drive is a stock 250GB 5400rpm HDD
Thanks all help appreciated

It's important that you leave a minimum amount of free space for the OS to use. You will see anywhere from 16 to 30 GBs for your OS and iLife apps. You need enough space to allow for all your third-party applications and document files. When fully set up you may have only 30 GBs of free space which is an appropriate amount to have, but not less than 20 GBs. That makes 60 GBs a reasonable minimum size.
If you haven't put everything in concrete, I might suggest going with a 500 GB Seagate XT hybrid together with a 128 or 256 GB SSD using an OWC DataDoubler replacing the optical drive. I suggest that mainly because using the same hard drive for the OS and Data partitions will actually make file I/O slower. Having two drives and using an SSD for the startup volume will enhance file I/O operations. Only two partitions on the SSD - each 60 GBs - fit neatly in 128 GBs.

Please help test a gif program in Lion and Snow Leopard

Can anyone please help me by testing a Gif creation app on a Lion and Snow Leopard machine?
The app is called "GIFfun" and is free. It can be downloaded here: http://www.stone.com/GIFfun/
I have used this app for years on a Leopard machine, but needed to upgrade this week to Lion.
Since upgrading to Lion all white areas in Gifs i create are turned to grey and its causing me problems in my workflow.
I've purchased other Gif creation software to see if the problem was only with that app, but the grey areas are on all Gifs from all Gif creators, which makes me sure the problem lies with Lion.
It would be a real help for me to know that other Lion users had the same problem, and to know that Snow Leopard users didn't have the problem. (as i would downgrade my OS to Snow Leopard)
I've attached 3 images to test the app, these images need to be put into a folder and the folder dragged and dropped into the app.
I need to know if the white areas turn grey on your OS?
I will be really grateful if anyone can help me with this.
Thanks
Dave

Yes I see your problem.
