Mail Os 10.3.9 and .Mac mail talking to each other

I recently set up a .Mac account for my husband. Now all mail, mine AND his is going into the .Mac mail online and none into the OS 10.3.9 mail. I would like all the mail to go into the OS X mail. When I open the drawers for OS X mail, the Inbox has both of our .Mac accounts listed. I would think that I could just click on one of them and have the mail come in there. Not so. Both accounts register 0 mail. Now I have to go up online to get the mail and to answer it. As I have dial-up, this ties up my phone line. Also, my husband is a technophobe and to get him to sign online will be like pulling hens teeth. How can I tell .Mac to send all the mail to the OS X inbox? Thanks for any help.

If you haven't changed the account type for either account, a .Mac type account is really an IMAP type account and behaves in the same way.
With a POP type account, messages are downloaded from the server and with a .Mac or IMAP type account, the account's Inbox mailbox in Mail is synchronized with the server.
Do you keep the Activity Viewer window open? If not, I suggest doing so to watch if the download/synchronization process does occur when each account is checked for new mail. At the Mail.app menu bar go to Window and select Activity Viewer.
Next items to check - go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Advanced tab for the account preferences, is "Include when automatically checking for new mail" selected?
Also, what is your selection for "Keep copies of messages for offline viewing:" and is "Automatically synchronize changed mailboxes" selected?
If there are a number of messages available at the server and since you are using dial-up for internet access, the synchronization process can take longer than expected but using the Activity Viewer will indicate what if any activity is occurring.

Have Mac OS 7, 8, 9, and 10.4 talk to each other, is it possible?

If so can I have some hints (mainly with 10.4)?
Models that I have networked:
Power Macintosh 7500/100 (Mac OS 8.0)
Power Macintosh 8600/300 (Mac OS 8.0)
Power Macintosh G4 (Mac OS 9.2.2 and 10.4.11)
Powerbook 520 (Mac OS 7.?.5)
If needed I can upgrade the Power Macintoshes to Mac OS 9 (Gotta Find the CD).
Thanks,

You have always been able to Bridge from AppleTalk-over-Ethernet to AppleTalk/LocalTalk (e.g., PhoneNet wiring) using one of the solutions below. They were introduced as Printer Bridges, but they can Bridge up to 8 devices including File Sharing Macs (but cannot get those Macs on the Internet):
1) Farallon EtherMac iPrint LT
2) Asante AsanteTalk
3) Apple Bridge software, running in the background on a Mac with both Ethernet and LocalTalk ports
All this stuff inter-operates pretty much as Gil has said until you get to 10.4. At 10.4, Apple eliminated support for File Sharing using Appletalk \[AppleTalk/LocalTalk was already dead in Mac OS X, but they eliminated AppleTalk-over-Ethernet as well.]
OS 9 supports File Sharing using both AppleTalk-over-Ethernet and TCP/IP \[TCP/IP is also over Ethernet, but cannot be converted to AppleTalk/LocalTalk]. OS 9 does this trick by including a bit of software called ShareWay IP. This package appear to have been written by, and is now available from a third party, Open Door Systems, at a modest price (US$39), and can be retrofit into OS 8 and some OS 7 systems:

PS: This illustrated article explains connecting OS 9 and Mac OS X:

In general, you will have better luck attempting to connect from the Older Mac to the Newer Mac.

HT4191 Notes - my ipad and mac are synching to each other but not to iCloud?

i believe i have set up icloud properly. My Ipad and my Mac are synching Notes to each other but they are not synching properly to Icloud.
I have also set up Calendar to synch on all of the 2 devices and the Icloud and those three things all synch fine.
any thoughts?

As long as both devices are compatible with iCloud, it should work. When you say they sync with each other, does that mean via iTunes? Go to iCloud.com and check what if any content is being synced.

Can Time Capsule and BT Homehub talk to each other wirelessly??

Dear All!
I have a 500GB Dual Band Time Capsule however I have a problem....
I live in a house where the BT hub is located downstairs (main telephone socket). Because I share the house with friends, for safety, my printer and TC are upstairs in my bedroom. I am therefore trying to get my TC to extend the BT Hub in order for me to be able to browse the net as well as access TC and let Time Machine do its thing.
I've tried to do it but have failed miserably! Can anyone out there help me pleeeasssseeee?
Thanks!

Guys, and in particular Duane, thank you for all the posts back to my question!
I am using the standard white BT home hub (not the latest version), which as you've confirmed can not be extended. My main problem is that for safety reasons I don't want to put my TC next to the hub, however, could I solve my problem by buying an AX, plugging this in next to the router, connect it to the home hub via ethernet and then extend that wireless network to my TC in my room?? (It would actually be cool to connect to my speakers wirelessly - surely the TC should have come with an audio socket like the AX!?!?)
Anyway this option seems excessive (and not exactly cheap) but maybe the only way forward...?? Unless I get as lucky as finding a needle in a haystack and find a router than TC can extend!
Really appreciate the help from all - thanks!

HT2477 Are documentS created with Microsoft office for windows and Microsoft office for mac are compatible with each other

Are documents created with Microsoft office for windows and Microsoft office for mac are compatible with each other?

As with a lot of software, it depends on the version of Word, and what features the author used.
Technically, Office 2010 for Windows and 2011 for Mac are supposed to be feature compatible. As are Office 2007 for Windows, and 2008 for Mac.
However, if a person using Office 2010 / 2011 used a feature that only exists in that version and sends the file to someone using Office 2007 / 2008, they would very likely have trouble opening the file, or having it display as intended.

My iPod and iTunes seem to hate each other

They're just not hitting it off. They don't like talking to each other, both seem prone to going into long electronic sulks, and chucking crockery at each other can only be round the corner.
Ok, serious head on for full story. Short version: iTunes 7 won't sync with our 4th generation iPod. Sometimes it won't sync at all. Other times it'll get to a certain point and gets stuck on a particular song, and Force Quitting iTunes is the only way we can eject it safely so none of the songs end up on the iPod. Very frustrating when you've got up to 941 out of 5000 plus songs. Along the way we've tried the five Rs, had various unknown error messages (1428 seems to be a favourite), and had the folder + ! sign (now gone again).
The long version: Got a new car stereo that's iPod compatible right out of the box, and we felt that having our entire music collection on tap was more appealing than faffing around with a CD changer. The Mac we bought a few months ago had iTunes 6, and other than locking up a few times it was happy to import 300+ CDs. So far, so good.
Next step, we got a second hand iPod, and this is where the aggro started. It's a 4th Gen 60GB model, and we immediately ran into difficulties because it had been used with a Windows PC. iTunes 6 didn't want to know, so looked online and found we needed to update to iTunes 7. Did that, only to find we then needed to update OSX as well. At this point I started getting all misty eyed and nostalgic for the old Windows PC - I mean I've still got ancient Win95 stuff that worked ok on Win2K. I really didn't expect this much aggro when we switched to Mac. Anyhoo, did the OSX update (which took days since there's no broadband available where we live), and finally we could get the iPod plugged in. Needed to do a restore on the drive, but that went smoothly. Then we went out and left it syncing.
Sinking more like. It got stuck on the 941st song not long after we got home, and while we were looking we got an error message saying we'd disconnected it without ejecting first. We hadn't touched the iPod, which was still sat in is dock, but as far as it was concerned it had been pulled out. Which meant that we needed to restore it. Again. Which it didn't want to do. After many attempts we found that forcing it into disc mode allowed us to restore it properly. Then tried to sync again, but only with one album to kick off with. That worked ok, so we tried another 2 albums. Got stuck again halfway through the second, but we were able to eject it semi-properly so that resetting worked. At this rate 20+GB of music is going to take so long to get through that our furniture will be antiques before we're done. Nnnnnnnnnnn.
Next attempt got to just over 800 songs synced before it got stuck again. This time it left the Mac completely unresponsive, which meant another restore. After that I went beck to trying one album at a time. One went on okay, the next stuck on the first song. At this point we've given up trying to suss it out ourselves and have come here for help. Is it worth trying iTunes 6 again? 7 has locked up the computer when the iPod wasn't even in the dock, and although this happened a couple of times when we were importing CDs into iTunes 6 I wonder if the older version might be more stable. What else can we try that we haven't had a go at already?
Thanks in advance for any advice offered.

Hi Michael!
Just wondering if you managed to resolve the issue? i'm suffering from the exact same problems-my shuffle works on everyone else's computer but not my notebook, which is new as well. everything is fine until i try to add songs then it just freezes. After a while it says cannot read from or write to disk. if i try to restore it, it takes hours or says there is an error. i have literally tried everything and even been sent a new one from apple. it's driving me crazy. please help anyone!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
    1.    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    2.    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    3.    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one? Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!

You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

How can i design square signal which having a positive and negative values equal to each other and separated from each other by controlled time or distance

How can i design square signal which having a positive and negative values equal to each other and separated from each other by controlled time or distance, As it is shown in the figure below. and enter this signal in a daq.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

By the time you spend for the nice diadram you might have done the vi
Your DAQ like to have a waveform (array of values and dt ak 1/samplerate)
If you set the samplerate you know the array length , create a array of zeros, and set the values of both amplitudes ...
Since I don't want to wire others homework here are some pictures
And there are some drawbacks is room for improvement in my solution, just think of rounding errors ... and what might happen if the arrays get bigger ....

HT1386 My husband and I traded ipod with each other. Now, I am unable to put my entire library on the ipod. Only some songs imported. HELP

My husband and I exchanged ipods with each other. I attempted to import my whole music library to this current ipod. only certain songs imported. Not all. How do I get the WHOLE library to this ipod?

if I sign in my iTunes on my husband's computer, will it delete his iTunes library?
LOL! If Home Sharing deleted the other person's library, then Home Sharing wouldn't have too many users, would it?
Seriously, Home Sharing sounds like a fine solution to the need you express.
However, your question suggests that your library is not backed up, right? You and your husband should each make a backup of your libraries.

I can print from my iPad but not my iPhone and they are synched to each other

I can print from my iPad3 (to an Epsom printer that is AirPrint enabled), but not from my iPhone4 (get message saying that the iPhone cannot frin an AirPrint printer). My iPad and iPhone are synched to each other. Any ideas?

make sure your iphone is connected to the same wifi where the printer is connected.

My calendar on my iPhone and iCloud will sync between each other. But my iPad will not synch.

On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Calendars off then back on then reset the iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

TS4268 I'm trying to text my daughter through iMessage, which has always worked. But now it's not working. I can iMessage other people and so can she. We just can't talk to each other anymore.

My daughter and I can't iMessage each other, which has never been a issue until today. We both can send and receive iMessage from other people just not each other. We have both deleted each other contact info and re-entered it. Turned iMessage off and on. Still can't message each other.

It is no wonder she is not receiving your messages if she has iMessage turned off in her iPad.
For her to receive iMessages on the iPad, she needs to turn iMessage ON in her iPad and then she needs to be connected to the internet in order to receive them. This connection can go through WiFi or through cellular data if her iPad has this functionality, but those two requirements are a must.
1. iMessages ON
2. iPad connected to Wifi or cellular data.
