Mail problem with Yosemite

I'm trying to set up a new email account and it all looks fine until I try and send an email all I get is this message;
"Cannot send message
This message could not be sent because your account does not have a preferred outgoing mail server. Select an outgoing mail server from the list below."
My email operator says
d) Select the ‘Use custom port’ radio button and put 465 in the box
e) Check the ‘Use Secure Socket Layer (SSL)’ check box
f) Make sure the ‘Authentication’ Drop down is set to ‘Password’
g) Username should be your email address and the password is your email password.
h) Click ‘OK’ and close the windows to get back to mac mail.
Extra to this, there is a tick box that says "Allow insecure authentication" which I've not ticked
I've done all this and still it doesn't work,
Hope anyone can help!

Thanks.

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Element v.11 & 9 Photo mail problem with MS Outlook

Looking for a fix: Elements v.11 has a photo mail problem with Microsoft Outlook mail, even when Outlook is designated the defaul e-mail program in Windows internet.
Is there a fix?? Thanks.

I just posted the same problem and so I'll join this thread, hoping to see an answer to your question. By the way, this PSE11 feature worked fine for me with Outlook 2007, but stopped working when I upgraded to Outlook 365.

Problems with Yosemite so far?

Problems with Yosemite so far: WIFI still seems a bit problematic, Safari on new update doesn't play youtube (neither hyperlinks nor for youtube's site), Problem connecting iPhone 6 to my MBP (late 2013, BT compatible) and turning Hotspot using continuity. Sorry guys, but it doesn't seem like the apple we all like, perfection-wise. any suggestion what to do? Maybe downgrading back to mavericks (god forbid, but it was an excellent OS)?

Has Yosemite fixed Maverick's Mail problem with Group email addresses?

Does anyone know if Yosemite has fixed the problem that Maverick's Mail program had with Contacts? Maverick's Mail program cannot show Group Address names in the email "To:" window. By default, it shows all of the email addresses in a Group rather than the Group name. The work-around requires putting Group Addresses in the "Bcc:" window. Has that problem been fixed in Yosemite?
Many thanks,
Bob Winckler

Hi Barney,
Just found out that Maverick's problem with Mail's Group address procedure has resulted in my email accounts being put on hold by my Internet Provider. I'm the president of a local club, and I routinely send out emails to 200+ email addresses several times a month. Since Maverick's Mail now doesn't keep Group addresses hidden when shown in the email "To:" window, we have to put those Group addresses into the "Bcc:" window. The first couple of times that I did that, the emails went through, but the third time that I tried to send out such an email, my Internet Provider shut down my email account with the statement "Your ability to send new mail has been suspended as a high volume of suspicious mail has been sent from your account recently. Please contact your IT administrator." The IT administrator required me to run a virus check and then set a new password for my account before they would reactivate it. In my discussions with several of my Internet Provideer's tech reps, it appears that the way the way that the Internet Provider has their server's security system set, a high volume of email addresses in the "Bcc:" section of emails is enough to shut down an account as suspicious. Until Apple gets this problem fixed, my only options are to switch internet providers (after finding one that will let high volumes of "Bcc:" go through) or switch to an older Mac operating system, which I've done (now using an ancient iMac 400DV running Tiger (OS 10.4.11). Given the high number of businesses, etc., likely to be using Macs, I'm really surprised that Apple has let this problem with Maverick's Mail program go uncorrected.
Best regards,
Bob W

Problems with Yosemite and Microsoft Exchange?

Hi, everyone, I upgraded all of my computers I work on to Yosemite (home and work); my iPhone and iPad both run IOS 8.1. I have 2 Gmail accounts that I use regularly; my job (university) is using Microsoft Exchange for the mail server. I use MacMail; don't really like Outlook for mail things.
I have periodically had some problems with pulling my job e-mail up on MacMail; since I converted to Yosemite, it has gone on steroids. I can see all of my Gmail just fine (contrary to some others who have reported problems); anything that is Exchange-based mail on my job's e-mail account will show the sender and the subject—the message itself is blank, sometimes for minutes sometimes forever. I have quit and restarted Mail, quit and restarted the computer to varying success, but it is still highly unpredictable other than not showing the message for a very long time.
When I use the web-based version of Outlook, it instantly shows everything. An A-B comparison of Outlook and Mail sometimes even has some messages not having even been downloaded into Mail, even though I have clicked on Get Mail.
And—in the iPhone and iPad, everything is fine 100% of the time. Works wonderfully.
Any ideas?

Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

Mail problem with embedded images and links

Since Yosemite Apple Mail seems to have a problem with images that are used as a hyperlink to a website.
While links are clickable with external loaded images work fine, links with embedded images just do not anything. Clicking on them selects them, a double-click opens the image in Preview.
This works:
<a href="https://www.google.de"><img src="https://www.google.de/images/srpr/logo11w.png" alt="Google Logo"></a>
This does not work:
<a href="https://www.google.de"><img src="cid:logo_google" alt="Google Logo"></a>
Can you reproduce this problem?
We tried it with OS X 10.10.1 and 10.10.2

After a bit of digging around I think I have found the reason for the EO being called prior to the CO. In the parent page CO, there is a transaction commit (oapagecontext.getApplicationModule(oawebbean).getTransaction().commit();).
Therefore, I assume that as my custom AM is a child of standard AM where the transaction is being commit, the child AM is sharing the same transaction/session and hence the EO being called.
I am running into issues with moving the validation to the EO as the validation requires visibility of the VO values to calculate a total value. Therefore is there a way to ensure that my custom AM maintains a separate database session/transaction to the parent/standard AM? Is it possible to break the parent/child relationship?
This way I assume that the commit issued by the parent page CO will not affect my custom AM/EO.
Cheers.
Jon.

Sleep wake problems with Yosemite update

I faced a multitude of issues with Yosemite 10.10. Following the 10.10.1 update, some of those were solved, but some still remained, namely those related to the Mail app, where mail server has to be selected manually. However, a new problem has arisen with the update: after going on sleep mode, the system does not wake, and needs to be rebooted. This happens every time, and makes me wonder about Apple's reliability, as it is starting to feel microsoft Vista like. Polishing the looks of the system is fine, bu doing so at the expense of performance, reliability and overall user experience is unacceptable. Looks as if a further update can not come soon enough.

Mail problems with Panther

I'm having difficulties downloading email into my client mail on my IMac. (I use Macmail, through BTinternet, an outside ISP. (Not Mac) The problem arose when I recently sent out a round robin email to a large number of hotels in Italy enquiring about accommodation - it's clear from my webmail account that dozens of them replied with quite large emails, brochuires etc etc etc. When I try to download these into my inbox, the spinning icon continues to spin round before telling me that Port 110 or something cannot accept or send emails or that my mail account has timed out. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. There is no problem with the interent connection, only mail

I just read what you wrote. So you are talking about Mail. All right. Can you see how big the inbox is in Mail - that is reported at the top of its window. I am asking this to see if you have an overfull inbox, which can cause problems.

Problem with yosemite and parallels

Since I have upgraded to yosemite and parallels 10 my windows 7 has been using a lot of CPU resources. Windows 7 runs very slow and it been using almost constantly 100% of one of the quads resources. This just started to happen when I upgraded, because I did not have this problem with Mavericks and Parallels 9 or 10. I have an iMac 2011, 8GB of Ram. Has anybody had this issue. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I was searching on a parallels forum website and found the following:
As from the symptoms, the issue can lie in NVRAM preferences of your particular Mac.
Please do the following to solve:
open Terminal application on Mac (Applications/Terminal.app)
please type this command (you may copy-paste it to the terminal from this message):
sudo nvram boot-args="debug=0xd4e"
Hit Enter.
You will be prompted to enter Mac user password. Please type it and hit Enter.
Note: you won't see what you are typing, just type and hit Enter. If you don't have Mac user password, please create a temporary one.
Then you may restart your Mac and the issue should be solved.
If not - please reply me here and I'll create a ticket for you in Support.
I did the above and it seemed to correct the problem.

Hi,
I did not think the characterset and database would matter for this problem, but here is the info you requested.
The database is an Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bi
The characterset : NLS_CHARACTERSET     AL32UTF8
And i don't have a clue about the characterset of the operating system (not even sure what the operating system is), but i think that will be utf-8 aswell.
I'm not sure what i did, to come over as rude, but i didn't mean to and i apologize for it.

Acrobat 11 Epson GT-S50(ICA) Interface Problems with Yosemite

After updating the ICA scanning software for Yosemite 10.10.2 I was finally able to get Acrobat 11.0.10 to scan using my Epson GT-S50 scanner. However there is a strange problem with the user interface. When I select scan the following appears.
as you can see, all controls except "image correction" are missing from the right side. The only way to get them to reappear is to change "none" to "manual" image correction as shown in the next image.
Now, if I proceed with the interface as shown all sheets are scanned but the session will always be aborted after the last sheet.
I am able to get the process going but only if, after choosing "manual" to get the controls to refresh, I subsequently set "Image Correction" back to "none". This procedure must be repeated every time I use the ICA interface. It works but I can never use the Image Correction features. This last image is what the interface should look like from the get-go.
Again, if "Image Correction" is set to manual the scan is aborted at the end.

Try un-installing Sophos.

Epson 3880 problems with Yosemite

I always used Epson 3880 for printing large (Super A3 size) prints and I have not seen a problem until I upgraded to Yosemite.
The printer is still printing OK, except the bottom 2cm are truncated, just white paper appears where there should be a part of the picture.
Since I print the same image as a test chart as before, using the same settings on my Epson 3880, as with Snow Leopard. I first suspected the PhotoShop, so tried using the Preview and other photo editing programs, the page is always truncated about 2cm, no matter what settings I used, Fit ti screen, or 100%, nothing affects the stubborn truncating. I tried downloading the latest Epson drivers, from Epson web site, even used their new Preview program, rebooted number of times, tried loading the paper from the front, from the rear, and the problem is persistent. I wasted half a dozen expensive Super A3 Premium Matte papers, not to mention ink.
Then, I tried booting in Boot-Camp, with Windows 8.1, installed the Epson 3880 drivers there and there was absolutely no problem. The test chart printed exactly how I set it up over a year ago, using borderless printing, with 100% coverage, no truncating!
So, I am suspecting the Yosemite has some issue with Epson 3880 and paper size?
Can anybody help?

Hi guys,
I am happy to report that my "truncating" problem with my Epson 3880 is now resolved.
I spoke today with Epson people and they just advised that I should install the previous drivers for this printer, v.9.33, which was for Maverick, not Yosemite.
I didn't know how to uninstall the current driver (v.9.34) built-in the Yosemite, so I only used the "-" sign under the printers to remove it.
I installed this one, and it works like it should be.
I am not sure if this is Epson or Apple problem, so perhaps Apple should act in embedding it in the Yosemite.
I will copy and paste this comment and send it to Apple support, as suggested by Cunnla (in case they don't ready this forum).
Thank you for all that tried to help.
