Mail or gmail? why should i switch?

so i'm a recent switcher. i'm happy happy happy with the things about macos that enable much greater productivity and pleasure when interacting with my little macbook.
so the reason to switch from PC to MAC is very clear. i can easily talk to others and explain why the switch makes sense.
one thing is that i've been a long time gmail user and before that yahoo web mail. i've seen the benefit (especially on the PC) of not having mail stored locally (size, virus etc.)
now i'm thinking about using .mac and macos mail app to handle my mail instead of gmail. ive tried it for a day or two and i haven't had any AHA moments that made the reason for a switch like that clear.
all this to say, how many of you use mail or a webmail client like gmail? what are the reasons why one would use .mac and mail versus gmail?
any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Hi Sean,
Take it from someone that has lived and worked around the world most of my life I more than understand your questions on .Mac, mail, web based mail like Yahoo, Gmail, Gmx and the Apple 'mail application' with our Mac's. I know the advantages and disadvantages of them all, been there done that.
As far as becoming a part of .Mac and paying the annual fees? Remember with .Mac you're getting more than just an e-mail address. You get web publishing, some storage space, iPhoto space and more. Whether you decide to use .Mac depends on how much of your world is tied to Apple. If many of your friends use a Mac then it allows more access to them and sharing files, iChat and simply makes connecting your different worlds together. You can sync your mail, address books, iCal, iTunes .... and the list goes on. Again it depends on how much of your life is connect to Apple products.
The advantage to using the Mac's 'mail application' is that you can also use your Gmail account there too. Gmail allows you to connect with a POP connection where Yahoo does not. You can also use the new Gmail desktop. It operates like 'spotlight' that comes with your Mac. It also always Gmail voice and IM chats and more. Check this link:
<http://www.macworld.com/2007/04/firstlooks/googledesktop/index.php>
If you're new to Mac's it all might take some time figuring out things, but your Mac also makes putting things together way easier than with a PC.
Take it from someone that is in London one day, Paris the next and then Sydney at the end of the week. When your world is connected in sync life is so much easier. Even if you don't have your Mac with you .Mac allows you to have access and control from anywhere and keep it all in sync. In the end it's all about your needs.

  • Why should I switch my Nokia 1020 for an Iphone 5c

    Ive been using an Iphone 4 for the last 2 year's and that phone never missed a beat ! when my upgrade time came the cost of new Iphone's was too much for me so upgraded to a Nokia Lumia 1020. It's a nice phone with some great feature's but I really feel the need to switch back.
    Please let me know youre opinions. Why should I switch back.
    Please help as it's driving me crazy.

    Who do you want to be in email for support, etc.? Do you want to be kwarp on the internet and on a resume? What image do you want to project? Individual or business or phantom or...? How good are you at juggling both references? Which would you want on a business card?
    I wouldn't want to strictly maintain two IDs (nick versus real), especially for the long term.
    Pick one and stick with it. Let the other be incidental.
    I also believe these are detailed when doing the contracts, with at least partial explanations of how they will be used, so you can ponder your way during the application process.
    Developer ID/Name (as registered by you) shows up as 'seller' as I recall - different from the name version attached to the copyright tag. You could use 'kwarp' as seller with 'greg lieberman' after the copyright and at least for this example, use both.

  • Why should I switch from Final Cut X?

    Who am I:
    Hobbits that has been playing with this stuff since the 80's
    Has Premiere and After effects in late 90's early 00 before switching to a Mac
    Make no money from my work. It is mostly home video's or fun stuff laughs at the office
    I have CC for photography, switched before Apple killed Aperture. For $10/month it is not bad for LightRoom's power and PhotoShop is over kill for me, though I like the power
    I have had Final Cut for years, and love the CHEAP price of Final Cut Pro X
    Use Motion a fair amount, though no expert
    Now to switch up from the Photo package of CC to have one with Premiere and After Effects is 3x the cost, or $240 MORE as year. FCPX is $50, plus Motion $50 add Compressor and you still are 6 month pay off (and I already own them).
    I agree with many reviews that FCPX is like iMovie pro, but Why would I switch to Premiere Pro?

    Because:
    Transparency.  Adobe tells you what it can and can't do with various pieces of hardware (think: GPUs) on your machine.  In fact, they list it exactly.  Apple just says stuff like, "Oh, it'll be faster with your GPUs.  Trust us."  They never specifically enumerate the advantages GPU acceleration can provide.
    Traditional NLE Format,  FCPX's interface isn't exactly what you'd call traditional as it pertains to an NLE.  Maybe you can dig it, maybe you can't.  Pr's is traditional and if you've used any other NLE, you can easily figure it out.
    Superb Integration.  Adobe's cross-application integration is ridiculously simple and easy to use.  Want to edit a sound track from Pr in Audition?  Back-click on the track and tell Pr that; Audition gets launched and the track is loaded.  Need some help from AE?  No problem, you can easily move tracks back and forth between AE and Pr.  Apple's apps aren't integrated really, at all.  It's sad, too.
    Better Native Editing Support.  If Adobe says that Pr can edit something natively, it can.  Without transcoding, without copying, without re-wrapping, without anything.  FCPX, on the other hand, attempts to do the same thing.  Some formats (think: AVCHD) that exist in parts will be wrapped into a single MOV container before you can edit them.  This can take a while if the segments are 4GB in size...
    I'm sure there are a few more reasons I can think of.  FCPX isn't a bad NLE per se.  I just happen to like the way Pr (and the other Adobe apps) does things.

  • Why should I use Speedgrade?

    What is Adobe Speedgrade, Why should I switch to it, and how does it affect video quality?
    (Coming from a guy who has experience in Aftereffects, Photoshop, Illustrator, and has been using Photoshop overlays on all of his Aftereffects videos.)

    This is the Captivate forum, not a forum for video. Speedgrade allows global color changes, maybe you'd better post this in the Premiere Pro forum?

  • Why should i use Apple 'Mail' if i use others like G-Mail?

    Simply:  Can or should i just remove 'A-Mail' so it's icon stops jumping & bothering me to sign up? 
    •THANK YOU, and gratitude to whoever can help me unerstan.
    *I'm 67 and not up to speed on such things.
    BACKGROUND, if necessary:
    •For years I've used only the Mail service of my ISP, Dslextreme ('DSLX').
    I've never used Apple 'Mail' , & never set it up to service mail from any of the mail services that i do use.
    I never activated 'A-Mail'  and i don't think there is mail in it.  Nor have i deactivated 'A-Mail', and it's still on my screen in the 'Dock'.
    •But from time to time, and inexplicably to me,  the 'A-Mail' icon seems prompted to start 'jumping' and wanting me to use it somehow, like sign up for it.  This was a minor annoyance so i just clicked to close it and so ignored it and moved on.
    This seems to happen when a website i'm on wants me to e-mail them and on their page i seem only have a choice to use 'A-Mail', none other, so i am pre-cluded from communication.
    •Just recently DSLextreme switched all us users over to G-Mail.   They turned over their mail operation to GMail and urged us to also getting a G-Account, which i have finally done.
    •I know that A-Mail 'works with the most popular email systems' like G-Mail.
    •"A-Mail"  = Apple's 'MAIL'.   To avoid confusion caused by the generic word 'Mail',  I'm going to call Apple's 'Mail' "A-Mail".
    I've spent over an hour trying to make my problem clear to you.    I hope i have succeeded.

    Apple mail is simply the default email application in OS X. It is not an email service/email address.
    Using an email application, you can read all your email in the same place and store them on your local drive.
    To answer your question, "Why should i use Apple 'Mail' if i use others like G-Mail?"
    You use a mail application for the same reason you use the internet when you could simply drive to the store to buy things or go get a newspaper or go to the library or go to the movie theater, etc.
    But from time to time, and inexplicably to me,  the 'A-Mail' icon seems prompted to start 'jumping' and wanting me to use it somehow, like sign up for it.  This was a minor annoyance so i just clicked to close it and so ignored it and moved on.
    This seems to happen when a website i'm on wants me to e-mail them and on their page i seem only have a choice to use 'A-Mail', none other, so i am pre-cluded from communication
    because the website is attempting to open your email application.
    Sounds like you simply use a web browser to view all your email.
    If you want to send an email from a web page, you need to copy an email address,  open your email account in your web browser, create a new email and paste the address.

  • Firefox spell-check dictionary switches to incorrect language when starting compose mail in Gmail

    I have Firefox 11.0 with dictionaries for Lithuanian and Russian languages installed. It seems that no matter what dictionary language is selected, after I start composing mail in Gmail, it switches the dictionary language to Russian (it changes the spellchecker.dictionary property).
    Steps to recreate:
    1. Say, the dictionary language is set to Lithuanian in some way (the spellchecker.dictionary property is "lt")
    2. Restart Firefox
    3. Open Gmail page (spellchecker.dictionary is still "lt")
    4. Start composing new mail - this is when the spellchecker.dictionary property gets changed to "ru"
    (there are other, more complicated scenarios, when this happens, sometimes it is even enough to reload the Gmail tab)
    Firefox general.useragent.locale property is "lt-LT", Gmail display language is "English-US". I don't know what other settings I should check. Of course, I could uninstall Russian altogether, but I do need it sometimes, so it would be nice to have, but not as a default language every time I open my mail.
    I have found a similar bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=717433 , maybe this is related.

    There is no built-in way to use more than one dictionary at a time. The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3414/ Dictionary Switcher] extension may be of use to you.

  • Why can't I automatically forward from Apple Mail to Gmail?

    Why can I no longer automatically forward mail from Mac Mail to Gmail account automatically. This worked fine till a few days ago but no longer. I hadn't changed any settings.  have asked about this in Gmail forum but no useful answers, I have now changed various setting but makes no difference. Most of the Gmail help is oriented to Mail 4.0, I have 3.6, so that doesn't help (can I upgrade, I have OS10.5.8), I uploaded MailUpdate but it would it wouldn't let me install).
    Maybe there is a way via Mail Forward but that seems for forwarding _from_ webmail _to_ Apple Mail.
    All help gratefully received.
    Thank you,

    I suppose Gmail is forwarding to Apple Mail but not v versa, hardly anything at all is landing in Gmail.
    My Apple Mail is a POP account, but IMAP -enabled in Gmail if that makes sense, Gmail help says that's what you should do to forward from POP to Gmail.
    I want to forward them to Gmail so I can read my POP mail on my PC at work, as I said this worked beautiflly since I started in Feb till last week, then stopped for no apparent reason... As alternative I use mail2web which is just about okay but very slow, no outbox, no spam or other filtering, keeps timing out.
    Yes something is doubling up but not sure what...
    In my Apple Mail I have two accounts, both POP, one my regular apple mail account, the other my Gmail account, but settings are different according to Gmail help but not sure if they  are right any more..
    thanks again

  • Trying to send using Apple mail program after installing Mavericks; Keep getting box "iCloud Cannot connect to account iCloud". Entering password restores mail but why should  I have to do this?

    Trying to send mail via Apple's email program (not iCloud off web page)  after Mavericks show pane "iCloud cannot connect to account iCloud". Entering p/w restores mail but why should this be happening?

    While I am no fan of Best Buy and would not buy a lightbulb from them I doubt you issues have anything to do with your iMac and more to do with your lack of experience and simply getting bad advice. Judging by you post I suspect you have loaded your computer down with a lot of crapware and that  has caused it's problems. For example running antivirus apps on a Mac not only is a waste of time, it's a waste of money, system resources and will eventually create more problems that it solves. Please begin educating yourself on the subject by reading Thomas Reeds articles on the subject, Thomas is a frequent and knowledgeable contributor to these forums. You can find his webpage at http://www.reedcorner.net/tech-guides/
    The good news is here are absolutely no, zero, zippo viruses for OS X. There are other types of malware available (for example trojans) however they differ greatly from viruses in that the use has to download and install them, whereas viruses do not work that way. OS X is not like MS Windows and is extremely secure.
    My suggestion at this point would be to clean your computer of the crapware (including antivirus apps) however before doing so please download and install EtreCheck and post its report. Then we can see how your computer has been configured and begin to give you some advice on the next steps.

  • HT201342 This site doesn't seem to answer a basic question of "why should I open this new iCloud e-mail account?" What do I do with it?

    Why should I open this new e-mail account?  What does it do or me? Under what circumstance would I use this new identity?

    There's no reason to if you don't want to use it.  Apple is no longer issuing @me email addresses, and has moved to @icloud adresses.  They are just adding the @icloud address to your existing iCloud account so you'll have one in case you want to use it.  Email sent to either your @me or @icloud email address is routed to the same iCloud mail inbox.

  • Gmail "All Mail" folder.  Why can I not delete messages?

    i am new to the Mac community.  When I open Mail, I have a Gmail folder labelled "All Mail".  This folder loaded over 10600 messages from my earlier email activity on a PC.  Every time I try to delete any of them, the messages just load back into the folder.  Is this normal?.  i can move messages to the "Bin" folder, but they still cannot be deleted.  Are these messages taking up hard disc space on my new iMac?  If so what can I do about it?

    I have a different but related question re Gmail's "All Mail" folder: will Gmail get confused if there are emails in folders (tags) that don't have a corresponding copy in the All Mail folder?
    CONTEXT:
    In my Mac's mail app, I have several accounts (a couple Gmail accts, my icloud acct, etc.).  Thus far I've been moving mail from my main Gmail acct into my folders (tags) in that Gmail acct, to store them after I've read / acted on them. E.g., I have a folder for 2013Q1, 2012Q4, 2012Q3, etc. -- these comprise basically a chron-based, self-managed set of archive folders. I even started moving mail from the Sent folder into these folders.
    However, I'd like to also start moving mail from my NON-Gmail accts to that main Gmail acct and store them in the same folders.  I see that when I move a mail from, say, my iCloud acct, it does show up in the target Gmail folder, but there is NO copy of that mail showing up in the Gmail "All Mail" folder. 
    Is that a problem?  It seems to me that Gmail's All Mail folder is there as a master-index to mail in various folders (tags) ... so is it a problem to have a mail is in a Gmail folder without being in All Mail?  (I think the same question would apply if someone wanted to delete mail from Gmail's All Mail folder -- can it be done without harming the copy in other folders?  (An example that's not directly on-point: I've considered deleting those myriad drafts that get uploaded to Gmail automatically when you are drafting a message -- but in that case, only the final draft is in another Gmail folder.)
    Thanks!

  • How can I move mail from Gmail to another account?

    Mail.app in Mavericks is incompatible with Gmail. I use Gmail. I have about 2GB of mail, most of it in a few dozen archive folders, stored on Gmail, and (I think) duplicated locally on my Mac Mini.
    I think my best recourse is to switch to an email service provider that conforms to the IMAP standard (which Gmail does not). Assuming I find one, I will have both accounts, Gmail and the new one, in Mail.app. How can I move the mail from Gmail to the other account?
    In Mail.app in Mavericks, All Mail must be marked to show as a folder, and when I move a message from a folder in Gmail it will still be in the All Mail folder.
    When all folders are empty, including the Inbox, can I be sure that every message has been moved to the new account, even though every message is still in the All Mail folder?

    --> mine's working fine. I know there are issues, but it should work

    Assuming I find one, I will have both accounts, Gmail and the new one, in Mail.app. How can I move the mail from Gmail to the other account?
    --> If all you want to do is keep your history, make a local folder on your mac and drag all the mail messages there (both se4nt and incoming).  I am not sure what will happen if you later drag those into the new Xmail account
    When all folders are empty, including the Inbox, can I be sure that every message has been moved to the new account, even though every message is still in the All Mail folder?
    --> Dont look in "all mail". Open your inbox and look at each individual inbox.
    Good luck,. But first, try to fix your account.

  • Apple Mail and gMail (part one)

    I am new to both Mac and gMail, so I don't know which is responsible for my issue. I subscribe to a bazillion email lists and when I was on PC with Comcast, I was always able to download my own posts so that I knew my messages were being seen. Now that I have switched, I don't see my posts in Apple Mail, nor are they sitting around in my gMail inbox. But I have been getting responses so they must be posting. Still, I like the control. Is there some kind of setting for this in either app? The kind folks at gMail support have not responded to me.
    Thanks
    Robin in Short Pump

    Typically, if you really received your own posts in your inbox before, this was done by the mailing list software. This software sends out a new mail to everybody subscribed on that list. If you do not receive your own posts in the inbox any more, obviously this behaviour was changed, which is in fact neither GMails nor Mail.apps problem. Maybe you can send a mail to that mailing list software (it should be possible at least with Majordomo and MailMan) to set personal options for your own mails and enable that feature again.
    Or did you get your own posts in your Sent box folder?

I even went back to Gmail and checked my pass word.
    Thanks Bob

    Don't you mean that you can't seem to receive Gmail via Mail.app? If you can access your account in Safari, then there's nothing wrong with that, but if you can't retrieve via Mail after setting it up, that's something else.
    Are you sure you checked your Gmail settings? You need to enable POP access in Gmail before you can retrieve your mail via Mail.app

  • Script task fails to send mail to GMAIL

    Hi   guys ,

    The execution engine calls this method when the task executes.
    To access the object model, use the Dts property. Connections, variables, events,
    and logging features are available as members of the Dts property as shown in the following examples.
    To reference a variable, call Dts.Variables["MyCaseSensitiveVariableName"].Value;
    To post a log entry, call Dts.Log("This is my log text", 999, null);
    To fire an event, call Dts.Events.FireInformation(99, "test", "hit the help message", "", 0, true);
    To use the connections collection use something like the following:
    ConnectionManager cm = Dts.Connections.Add("OLEDB");
    cm.ConnectionString = "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Provider=SQLNCLI10;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;";
