Mail in Lion - Deleted Plug-In... need it back :(

Hello! I have a Macbook Pro running osx Lion and i was having issues with Growl Mail so i tryed to delete the plug in but ended up delted something about the attachments and now i get a missing plug in notice. I tried to go into my trash but i emptyed it awhile ago before i noticed the issue after i deleted it. Is it possible to redownloed it? Thanks!

Deleted what plugin? Growl? There's no such plugin in my copy of Mail. Growl is third-party software and not required for normal functioning of Mail. The only thing in that folder on my machine is MailWebPlugin.webplugin.
I think you have damaged Mail and need to reinstall it. I'm not quite sure how that is done in Lion, though. Boot into recovery mode (hold down command-R at startup) and see what kind of reinstallation options there are.

Hello,
Use a Browser to log into your WebMail & remove it from the Server there.

Delete Prompts Disabled -- Need Them Back :(

I seem to have disabled BOTH the Delete Prompts in iTunes (1. Are you sure you want to delete from itunes Library + 2. Are you sure you want to delete of youe Hard Drive)
Unfortunately, I would like to RE-Activate those prompts, but dont know how.
I tried reinstalling Itunes, and that didnt work.
I also tried deleting all instances of Itunes on my entire PC... and once i re-install ituenes the Prompts Still do NOT appear.
Any suggestions??

Try this:
Close iTunes and rename your preferences file:<pre>C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunesPrefs.xml</pre> to something else.
If you don't see an Application Data folder, you need to turn on the option to view hidden files in Windows explorer (Folder Options Control Panel).
Or, you can try my script instead -- but MAKE A BACKUP of your preferences file (iTunesPrefs.xml) first! I have not tested this script with iTunes 7.1.1 -- only iTunes 7.0. If it doesn't work, you can always restore the backup...

I deleted iPhoto but need it back.

I deleted iPhoto out of frustration when my iPod would open it when I didn't want it open. Now I want it back, but it's not in my purchases or on my hard drive. my TM application isn't set up yet, so I can't use that to get it back. How can I get my iPhoto back without purchasing again?
Also, the App Store says that it is in my purchases when I know it isn't. Help? Please???

If you originally got it with your computer and received no restore disks then simply go to the App store using the Apple ID you registered teh computer under, go to purchased and download again

Yahoo mail tool bar (delete,more,spam,etc) not working in firefox.Works in Explorer.Web points to Mozilla update."Plug-ins" up to date. Solutions?

Yahoo mail tool bar (delete,more,spam,etc) not working in firefox.Works in Explorer.Web search points to Mozilla update problem."Plug-ins" up to date. Solutions?
I've used firefox for years now with out problems. Now that help is needed, Could you make this any more frustrating? I thought I was asking Mozilla help and I'm sent to "users". I went there 1st! there are similar questions but no answers. I've lost time and data. Is there any REAL PEOPLE to help with firefox problems?

I'm a real person, thanks.
If you mean, does Mozilla have paid staff you could phone or email, the answer is "No."
Is the problem with a feature of the Yahoo! mail web page itself, or the Yahoo! toolbar?
General advice:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
''If Firefox is not running:'' Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox.
''If Firefox is running:'' You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
and OK the restart.
''Both scenarios:'' A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Refresh).
Any difference in how Yahoo! works?

Since installing mountain lion i have a problem with mail. when i delete a message close and open mail the message has come back. please help!

Since installing Mountain Lion i have a problem with Mail. I delete a number of messages from the same person but keep the newest message in my Inbox. I actually delete them from the Trash. The next time i open Mail the deleted messages are back again. Can anybody please help as this is getting annoying. Thanks in Anticipation.

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
find ~ $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one. How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one. How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

So the answer to my question is yes - from an old Exchange account that was provided by a previous employer.
If so, you can't.
You can't merge or transfer contacts that were synced over the air with an Exchange account with another account, and the same for syncing the contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer. This is how most employers want it.

Can't open new Lion Mail? - Try delete the file "Envelope index"!

Problem: can't start Mail.app after installing Lion. Mail.app repeatedIy crash when you accept the database upgrade.
Possible solution:
In Finder use Go to Folder... and type "~/Library/Mail".
Delete the index file "Envelope index".
Start Mail and it should work nicely.
If you fear to delete it, move it to the Desktop. Go to step 3. If Mail works, it's safe to delete the file.
This simple solution is found on many comments in this forum.

FIXED! My case was just successfully closed with Apple and I am now able to see my mail in Lion. It took 2 days for Apple to come up with the resolution, and I was told that there were other cases of a siimilar nature reported.
Here's what fixed it for me. The problem had something to do with smartmailboxes, which I use in my mail.
Close the Mail app and confirm it is closed.
Open a Finder window. Hold down the Option key while clicking Go along the top menu bar in the Finder window and click on Library.
Navigate to the mail library under your user name. In one of the subfolders, you will find 1 or more files named smartmailboxes.plist. There may be a file name similar to that with "backup" in the name, as well.
Drag each of those files to your desktop and ensure they are no longer in your mail library folders.
Restart Mail. (Those .plist files will be re-built automagically.)
This fixed my problem and I was then able to delete those plist files from my desktop. It did take a little while for the .plist files to regenerate, though.
Good luck with your fix.

Transfer Entourage 2004 in Tiger to Mail in Lion

I've been reading postings for hours but I haven't found an answer to my specific question.
I just bought a refurb May 2011 iMac that was delivered with Lion installed. I've been using a 2005 G5 running Tiger and Office/Entourage 2004. I'd like to know if there's a way to transfer all the information from Entourage to Mail.
I've seen posts about using Sync, but I don't know what is supposed to happen after you click the check boxes. The two computers are connected via a LAN in my house, so there's no mail server.
I've also seen posts about using the "import" function in Mail, but it tells me it can't find Entourage (probably because I'm on the iMac and Entourage is running on the G5).
I also bought Snow Leopard 10.6.3 from the Apple store because I have several dozen programs that I want to continue using but that won't run in Lion but I haven't done anything with it yet.
So, here's my question: Is there a (hopefully painless) way to transfer ALL my settings and info (accounts--I have approximately 15 accounts set-up in Entourage--, schedules, existing e-mails and folders, address books, calendars, etc.) from Entourage 2004 to Mail in Lion? I exported my Identity from Entourage and I transferred the Main Identity file on my iMac, but I don't know what to do with it now. I've figured out how to transfer the folders (via drag-and-drop mbox files) but I want everything transferred.
Also, I've not seen anything about transferring accounts from Entourage to Mail at all.
Am I asking too much?
Thanks!

Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder)

For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data
Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

I deleted my playlist off my iPhone (on my phone not on iTunes) and it deleted the playlists from my iTunes and I NEED them back...how?

It seems TOO MANY people are having this same problem. Honestly, Apple is just dirt now...more problems than now. I need help asap.
I went onto iTunes and clicked on my phone's name in the upper right corner. I have my music set on 'selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres' which this usually means, I just click below to which playlists I want on my phone. However, none of my playlists were updating (none of the new songs I added to my playlists already on my phone were transfering) so I went on my phone and simply deleted the playlists there, then was planning on re-syncing them on my phone from iTunes on my computer. BUT when I went onto my iTunes, somehow ALL my playlists were deleted EVEN THOUGH I ONLY DELETED THEM OFF MY PHONE NOT MY COMPUTER! THESE PLAYLISTS ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND I NEED THEM BACK NOW! I tried using the backup, which was done before the playlists were deleted, but of course Apple, it did not work. Great job, there. I just want these playlists back, both on my computer and on my phone. I have plenty of space free to hold these playlists/songs.
Apples exceptional failure of everything iPhone and iTunes related is too maturfully pathetic I don't know if I have the patience or time to deal with this company anymore, even though I have been along for the ride since the first iPhone came out. Congratulations, Steve Jobs would be so happy with how far Apple's sunk.
Problems:
Video's not synching
Playlists not updating
Playlists deleting from iTunes when simply deleted from iPhone
New songs not transfering to iPhone
My battery jumping from 30% to 5% in less than a minute
My phone completely shutting down at 30% and not turning back on, saying it needs to be charged
When above happens, and I plug it in, after it turns back on, it pumps straight to 30% battery again
Lock screen not always locking, even though it is set to 1 minute

I'm not ranting at you, I'm ranting at Apple.
Yes, I backed it up. It did not work when I tried this to get my playlists back.

In Mail 4.6 (10.6) I'm not seeing only seeing Import Mailbox, no export. But Mail can be archived
Note: I'm not getting the Archive option with Cmd, but I do get it with a right-click.
Archiving mailboxes
You can archive (create a backup copy) of a mailbox so you can retrieve messages if needed.
To archive a mailbox:
Select one or more mailboxes to archive.
To select mailboxes that are next to each other (contiguous) in the list, hold down Shift as you click the first and last mailbox; to select mailboxes that are not next to each other in the list, hold down Command as you click each mailbox.
Choose Mailbox > Archive Mailbox, or choose Archive Mailbox from the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear) at the bottom of the sidebar.
Choose a folder or create a new folder where you want to store the archives, and then click Choose.
Mail archives the mailboxes as .mbox packages. If you’ve already archived a mailbox, Mail does not overwrite the existing file but appends a number to the filename to create a new version of it.
If you need to recover messages, you can import an archived .mbox file as “Mail for Mac OS X.”
Importing mailboxes
If you set up Time Machine to back up files, you can use it to restore previous versions of a mailbox or a message. Time Machine deletes older backups to make room for new ones as the backup disk fills up, so older backups of Mail might be deleted.

Is there a way to limit the frequency of the "autosaving drafts" feature in Mac Mail on Lion?

Using Mail Version 5.0 (1244.2/1244.3)
On MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.1
Wondering if Is there a way to limit the frequency of the "autosaving drafts" feature in Mac Mail on Lion?
Looked all thru preferences and googled the crap out of this and can't seem to find the answer I want.
Basically, I have my mailbox behaviors set up exactly the way I want them. (ie deleted messages get saved to my "Trash" folder on the server) I do not think I should have to change them, but because of the autosave feature saving almost every 3 characters typed, I have an over abundance of versions saved in my Trash folder. This problem would be solved were there a preference somewhere I could select to save drafts "manually only" or "opened messages save when quitting" or something along those lines.
Is this a preference setting already that I am missing?
I would settle for a rule, just not sure what perameters should be set for this to work.

Typically a server has a settable parameter to limit concurrent connections. Check the server's documentation.

Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?

Message title says it: Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?
I can't find anything in the Knowledge Base that says these two options no longer work or still do.
I do not have a system capable of running Lion, but I need to know the answer nonetheless.

Gee, I don't know: "paste attachments mail Lion"? ;-)
One further question, if I may: in Panther (which is where I've aggregated nearly 7 years of mail), if you copy more than one file in the Finder, switch to Mail, and paste the files into a new message, only the file names paste in. If you copy one file and paste it into a Mail message, you get the file, not just the name. Is that still true, or has that (IMHO) bug been fixed since 10.3.9?

Is there any way to select all mail messages and delete them?

I get lots of mail, and most of it I don't keep, or keep over on my MacBook. Is there a way to select all the Mail messages and delete them, or do I need to go through them one at a time?
many thanks!

In your inbox in the phone you can mark the mails one by one and then tab delete.
In Trash you can delete all with one tab.

Mail: Unable to delete an email

Hello everyone,
don't know if this has been solved but I cannot delete the header of an email which is like glued in my mailbox!
This is annoying . I have tried to remove the mail box, to delete it in finder.
In spotlight I am able to find the mail ( header of it) but cannot delete or remove it from mail box.
Amy ideas would be very much appreciated!
bonne soiree

This is probably an indexing problem, but try highlighting the message, click on Edit and choose Cut. This bypasses Mail needing the move the message to the trash mailbox. If this works, then use Rebuild on the mailbox.
