Mail import not working - please help
Hi - I've read all the archive material I can find about "No valid Mail for Mac OS X files were found." and I'm still stumped.
I want to update Mail in my new Mac Mini with all the old emails from my old G4. These 8,000 old emails are accessible on my old G4 but I cannot import them. I transferred the old Library/Mail Folder containing all the emails to the Mini but no matter what I do I keep getting "No valid Mail for Mac OS X files were found." I've tried every folder in every layer, even tried over the network to the original files. I have permission to read/write the files.
By the way my old G4 will not go into Target mode for easy transfer via Migration Assistant so I've had to go this method, to my enormous chagrin!
What am I doing wrong? It's obviously something, but even 12 hours off and a good sleep didn't help...
Fixed!!
I needed an .emix to .mbox converter - http://www.cosmicsoft.net/emlxconvert.html
Mail 1.x stored mail in standard mbox format, but Mail 2.x doesn’t. The only way you might find Mail messages in a “recovered” mbox file is if it’s a Mail 1.x file that Mail 2.x left there after the conversion to the new .emlx format when/if you upgraded from Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier to Mac OS X 10.4.

Can you access the account on another device?
What error message are you getting?
Are you sure the setting you entered are correct?
I would Google for:
setup XX email on iphone
where XX is your provider.
The delete the the account from the iPod and reenter the settings
Safari does work on the iPod, right? -
Mail search not working; please help
For some reason the search function in Mail has stopped working. If I click on the Sent folder, tons of emails come up, but when I search, it always comes back blank, when they are definitely there?
Dosn't matter if I search for something I sent 10 minutes ago, yesterday or last week, nothing ever comes up. I have to list by name and look alphabetically which takes ages.
Any ideas?Not that it's much help, Nigel, but I'm having the same problem. No matter what I search for, I get no result. I CAN find the email in Spotlight, however. Can you? If not, you can rebuild your Spotlight database, and that may fix your problem. See this article ... http://www.macobserver.com/tip/2006/07/21.1.shtml

Links in Mail signature not working, please help me
I have created the signature in preferences + added the links
when I go to create a new message the signature is there and formatted BUT NO LINKS
do you know why this would be happening?Hi There,
By default you can’t add links but there is a trick to it that can do just that:
Write a new email, add the urls in the new email as if its a signature.
Then select the text that you wish for it to be a link and go to Edit then Add Link.
Repeat that process for all your links then Copy and paste the manually created footer with links in the signature section under preferences...
Good Luck

I backed up my Iphone to itunes so i can do the new Update to IOs 7 and so now that i updated it i want to backup and restore and its not working, Please help!
An iPhone backup to a computer via iTunes stores the photos in a backup file that is only meant to be be used if needed to restore back to the phone. There is 3rd party "extractor" software available but otherwise the photos are not directly viewable.
The backup via iTunes was a good idea and your Camera Roll photos should be there and should be able to be restored to your new phone. However if it was me I wouldn't rely on that alone. I would also import the photos to a computer where you can see and verify that you have a copy. That is a good idea at any time (not just when you know you might need it). Any phone can be lost, broken, suffer hardware issues, etc at any time and lose all data on it. Following is a link with information on how to import the photos to a computer: Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support -

I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.
I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
***** that i cant use Find my iPhone, but atleast i can use my phone. -

while updating 4.0 version to 5 version system shows sim card is not valid. My iphone is not working .Please help me
I would imagine your iPhone was hacked to make it work on your local carrier.
Updating the iOs to 5.xx will lock it back to the original carrier .The carrier holding the lock are the only
entity able to authorise the unlock .You will have to contact them and see if they unlock and the terms the apply -

The built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out.
the built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out. OS: Windows Vista (32-bit)
here is a sample code .
so far you procedure looks good but
i bet you have to specify the name of report , instead of 'filename'.
see this
Plist_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
IF NOT ID_NULL(Plist_id) THEN
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(Plist_id);
END IF;
Plist_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Receive_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Receive_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_time', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_time,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Issue_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Issue_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Workshop_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Workshop_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
-- RUN_PRODCT(REPORTS,'..\Reports\Pro_License',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, Plist_id, NULL);
-- here Pro_License is the name of report.
did you tried to see if the parameter passed using a message ?
try
message('parameter name'); pause; write this before "run_report".
