Mail gone from working perfect to extremely glitchy? Anyone else?
Just wondering if there has been an update glitch or something. I am running two computers, one G4 silverdoor tower and a MBP. Mail has worked flawlessly for the time I have owned both computers. Now, they both seem to glitch constantly!
- mail won't send, does not recognize STMP. Will sit in outbox, then randomly decide everything is ok now? No pattern to behaviour.
- mail will send, but never actually get go to intended person. Randomly. Some will, some won't. Even if they are sent seconds apart from each other.
Just wondering if anyone else has run into similar problems. I have contacted my hosting provider and they have tested everything from there end and have not found a problem? Not sure why it is an issue now? Everything worked perfectly before, and I have not changed anything.
Any suggestions
TY
If this email account and SMTP server used to send messages with the account is provided by your hosting provider which is not your internet service provider used for connecting to the internet, any problems with messages being sent are likely something you need to address with your ISP.
Is your hosting provider's SMTP server authenticated?
Are you using 25 for the Server Port with this SMTP server?
If so, try entering 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field for this SMTP server - Mail > Preferences > Accounts under the Advanced tab for the account preferences - Server Settings button for this SMTP server.
Are you also access an email account and SMTP server that is provided by your ISP with the Mail.app and if so, any problems sending messages with this account?
A successfully sent message (a message moved to the account's Sent mailbox is an indication the message was successfully sent) is either accepted or rejected by the recipient's incoming mail server. Most of the time you will receive a return (bounced) email error message from the recipient's incoming mail server if a message is rejected by the server for whatever reason but not always - especially with the amount of spam being circulated today with spammers using what is called a dictionary attack on an ISP's or email account provider's domain.
If a successfully sent message is not received by the recipient, this is not a Mail.app problem. This problem more than likely is at the recipient's incoming mail server. Your email address or the domain for your email address or your ISP may have been blacklisted by the recipient's incoming mail server if they believe spam is or has been emanating from the provider's domain or from your ISP's domain. A computer's IP address can be blocked or a range of IP addresses by a recipient's incoming mail server.

I have an iphone 4, when I plug in headphones I can pick up music and only background sounds, but no voices. It happens on every video or movie I see, but music works perfectly fine. Did anyone else have this problem or was it just me? If not can anyone help me?
Hey there Srkupo,
It sounds like your vocal audio is not working with your headphones connected to your iPhone. I would start with the troubleshooting from the following article to help troubleshoot them named:
Resolve issues with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch accessories
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2634
Update your software
Install the latest version of iOS. You can see which version is on your iPhone by going to the About screen.
If the device doesn't update successfully, the issue might be with your device and not the accessory. Learn how to check your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Disconnect and inspect the accessory, then restart your device
Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible.
Inspect the connection between the accessory and device and make sure that no debris or other damage is present.
Restart your iOS device by turning it off, then back on. When the Home screen appears, reconnect the accessory.
Try a different device
Make sure the issue is with the accessory, if possible. Always use an identical or similar, compatible device with the accessory you're troubleshooting.
If there's static coming from the left audio channel when you use headphones, try connecting the headphones to a similar device.
If the device isn't syncing when connected to the dock, connect it directly to the computer using the Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or try another USB port.
If you're using Lightning to 30-pin Adapter in a connection chain, try using the same adapter on a similar or identical device.
Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Restore your iOS device. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
If this does not resolve the issue could you elaborate on where you are listening to this content from to help isolate the issue?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger. The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch. It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic. Anyone else have this same issue? Any solutions?
The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay. The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs). My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work. So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch. We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger.
One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic. So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal. Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord. Or that I need to purchase an applie charger. We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work.
My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
Any other advice is greatly appreciated. -

I upgraded to version 4 last week and find it extremely slow compared to the previous version - like so slow that some pages do not even load. I have downloaded and gone back to version 3.6.17 and everything is back to the normal I have known for years with Firefox and it is really fast again...so now I know that there is nothing wrong with my computer and that the supposedly very very fast version 4 is much much slower than the previous version 3.6...so what gives? I'm not keen on going back to the new improved version 4, though I know it will not be supported soon...anyone else having the same issue?
Having the exact same problem here.
-Mac OSX
-3.6 worked great
-I tried the 4 beta, got rid of it because it was so slow
-When it upgraded to 4 is VERY slow and freezes often
-Appears especially slow on sites with flash (ie http://www.bbc.co.uk/news) -
Received upgrade notification for Mozilla to 3.6.15 which we undertook. The computer after completing this activity now cannot stream video through our proxy provider from BBC I-player, even though we have ensured we have the latest Flash Plug-in. The system was working perfectly prior to this event. Even if we delete and re-download the update, the file loads and then when asked to run, "File Corrupt message appears. Please advise or provide solution if possible. Thanks

If so, anyone know how to fix it as Apple staff has been useless.
Hi klucas54,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the RDIO app is not working after the app was updated, start with the helpful troubleshooting tips in this article:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open

When I try to invite a developer to our organization's Apple Dev Portal, the 'Send Invitation' link is inactive. I also tried the bulk invite where the button appears to be active but does not respond when clicked. Is anyone else having this issue? I submitted a bug report last week and haven't heard anything.
Hi 2themax11
Still no update from PA Networks - it is like they are in total denial that Mountain Lion exists!
The Cisco app works but only just and is very slow, i think that may be more to do with us than the use of the app. Bear in mind we used to use the Cisco service and so it is not something I had to set up from scratch but it is not something our network team are happy about as this service was buried and was not supposed to be supported any more.
I am also using a Cisco SSL webvpn for accessing our intranet etc. it is a quicker fix for a few things. Like you I am now using 2 laptops...one is an old Dell...it is horrible! -
Crossfades do not Work in Logic 9 (upgraded) - Anyone else having this prob
This started occurring after upgrading to Logic 9 (from 8) and before I put in Snow Leopard. If I copy a region to another place and then try to create a crossfade - first the region boundaries of the pasted-in region disappear (so I have to put the playhead where the front boundary should be so I know where to put the crossfade) -- I can put a crossfade there that way, but then the region which follows won't play (is muted, though no mute function appears). Also, I cannot create a crossfade on the right edge of the pasted-in region. This for sure happens if I use Command C/V to copy and paste int he g=region. Occasionally it works correctly if I option click drag (but even then it doesn't work all the time). I think this is a Logic 9 only problem. Anyone else encounter this??
MS3 is compatible with Logic Pro X's plugins and presets as per it's description....
MainStage 3 lets you take your Mac to the stage with a full-screen interface optimized for live performance, flexible hardware control, and a massive collection of plug-ins and sounds that are fully compatible with Logic Pro X.
MS3 also only uses 64bit versions of AU Pluginsas per its minimum specs.. just as LPX does.... whereas LP9 and MS2 could use 32 and 64bit versions...
Minimum System Requirements
4GB of RAM
Display with 1280-by-768 resolution or higher
OS X v10.8.4 or later
Requires 64-bit Audio Units plug-ins
Minimum 5GB of disk space (35GB of optional content available via in-app download)
It's kind of like why you can convert projects from LP9 to LPX but not from LPX to LP9.....
MS3 is desgined to work with and utilize LPX's sounds/instruments/patches etc.. and not LP9s.....
Finally, as an aside.. please note, this forum is not how you contact Apple...
Please read the following info to understand why this is so....

i recntly bought 2 ipod touches and they both seem to lock up in video mode and i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem? is it due to low battery?
It happens sometimes. Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If you still have the problem that points to a hardare problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar is in order. -
2010 Mini superdrive has stopped working after Mountain Lion update - anyone else?
After updating to 10.8 the superdrive on my 2010 mini has completely stopped working. It will not accept any disks. Disk Utility sees the drive as a working drive. Anyone else having this issue? If yes and you've resolved it, how??
Same thing happened to me with Mountain Lion. It seems that at the moment there's no solution. I've tried to burn a DVD with Toast Titanium, iDVD and the SimplyBurn. All of them failed.
It's a shame that Apple did this because we pay for a computer with a drive that could burn DVD discs. I´m very, very disappointed with Apple!
