Mail settings changing without user input

I have several Mail accounts set up in the following manner (let's please ignore the fact that have far to many accounts, I have collected them as family members came onto the net and in teh process of setting their ISPs up made accounts for myself):
Several gmail accounts........ working properly
a .mac account in IMAP....... working properly
POP accounts with ISP(a) using APOP auth. working properly
POP accounts with ISP(b) using password auth.. working properly
POP accounts with ISP(c) using password auth.. working properly until the settings somehow change to APOP auth on their own
Edit: SSL is only enabled on the gmail accounts
Things will be working properly for accounts with ISP(c) and then randomly the advanced settings will change themselves from Password authentication to APOP authentication. At which point the accounts will register offline and, upon setting them to go online, will fail to change status without generating an error.
The only way to return to normal operation is to reset the authentication method to Password at which point any messages still on the server(auto-deleted after 1 week) are re-downloaded resulting in duplicate messages in my inbox.
In case it was some kind of syncing problem of my account settings with .mac I reset the .mac sync and refreshed the backup while everything was working properly.
Outside that my only solution has been to reset to Password authentication and go through the process of deleting a weeks worth of duplicate emails. This is seriously annoying and never happened under OS X Tiger. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I've done both. I only have one mac and I have completely removed the profile from .mac and loaded a new one. Still, randomly changes from 'password' authentications to 'APOP' authentication.
I have checked the keychain as well, not a single duplicate entry(I routinely delete some of the 'oops saved the wrong password' entires just to keep things clean).

System Preferences Changing Without User Input

I have one user who has had random system preferences change without her input.
She is a network user connecting to a Lion 10.7.5 Server via OD.
Her desktop is Lion - 10.7.4
Example: Today her setting for Security and Privacy to require a password on screen saver wake-up was changed/no longer checked.
Her setting to be able to use a right click on her mouse changed 3x last week without input.
Any ideas?

If you are asking if the user is defined more than once, the answer is no. Just one entry.

Settings and arrangement changed without user input

I woke up the other morning to find that my iphone's apps had been rearranged overnight. The ringtone was also changed, and there may be other settings that are different which I've not discovered yet. The phone was turned on and in its charger overnight. There is no possibility that anyone else was using it and changing settings, and it had not been synced recently. This happened apparently spontaneously. Any ideas? Thanks.

same problem wiith iPad3 - many things helped a bit, and biggest improvement did come from Apple on line. even tho device is ouf of warrenty, they had me put in my serial number and then ran an extensive "health check" i was pretty surprised that they did that. i had to shut it off before it finished because my time was limited, so i never saw fhe 'last word' but it works a lof better now, before that I did reset and updated iOS. both helped a bit. also helped to take off foreign language keyboards, especially Tibetan, there is quite a bit of discussion about this problem in the forums, if you search. users describe it such varied ways that not all the reports show up on any given search. good luck! aloha

HT3309 Share mail settings with new user account on the same mac?

I have had to set-up a new user account on my mbp to use a new piece of software which refused to work on the main user account. I want to transfer the mail settings from the original one simply so that mail opens in an identical way whichever account I'm siging in with.

Oops.
If you just need Mail settings, only copy
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
All the messages are in
~/Library/Mail

Poll: Mail settings changes by itself

Now I want to make a poll to know how frequent this bug is:
Mail is unexpectedly changing settings in the "Preferences"-"Accounts"-"Advanced" from "Password" to "APOP"
(When this happens Mail is immediately asking for "Password"and nothing works anymore)
This applys to POP-accounts where the ISP-provider tells you that the setting is supposed to be set to "password".
Please reply to this subject to confirm the frequency of this bug.
Michael

I got this problem after istalling Leopard ( clean). Mail settings for password can´t be saved and changes itself to apop.And then mail asks for password when I open mail. This is a problem specific to pop accounts. Beccause it affects popusers all over the wolrd this is an apple issue BUG!!!!
I have tried all remedys suggested, changing intervals for mailchecking, new account, keychain, etc etc but nothing works. There are many more having this bud.
There are two other topics about this a.o mail not remembering pazzword.
I.M.H.O it could be worth to tell your ISP provider that you can´t use their APOP because Apple is refusing to react about this bug. So we don´t even know if there is a fix going on.
APPPLE officials! -Good morning! It´s time to get up and go to work!!!-

"To:" mail field changed without my action

Hello All,
I'm a little worried about this. I just noticed that for many of the emails that are in my inbox in Apple mail, the "To:" field on received messages has been changed to "Holidays in Viet Nam." with my email address <between the carrots>. There's no functionality loss, but, to be best of my knowledge, I definitely did not change that setting. So the question is, who/what did. Can anyone help me track this this down? I've posted a screenshot. What controls that "to:" field and how can I deal with it? Just to be clear, this is one example: the problem seemingly has been applied retroactively (but not uniformly) for months of emails. Have I been hacked? What gives?
Justin

Hello Justin,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If the full name for your email address account is not appearing correctly, then I'd like you to please check your Mail settings, to ensure your full name is configured correctly.

My ipod acts as though someone is invisibly pressing the button and starts jumping to different screens without user input any help out there

my ipod touch acts as though someone is invisbly ushing the buttons or moves from screen to screen without usere input

Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing wll be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/newiPod
If still problem you have a hardware problem and service is necessary.

Workflow Tasks spontaenously changed their start date without user input.

The issue I have is that a task list with a workflow attached to it spontaneously added major versions to over 200 items that changed the 'start' and 'end' dates. The user's name who was tagged as the one doing the update was not using sharepoint or even
at his computer for the time that this occurred.
Not all of the tasks in this list were affected and I can't find a pattern as to why -
I have seen this happen before at a different agency/installation where a user's name appeared suddenly on fresh updates a year and a half after he retired and was removed from the system.
Any ideas as to what might have happened?
Any suggestions on how to revert over 200+ task items to their previous version programmatically without having to edit each individual one?

Hi,
As I understand, you want to know why the task will change the start date spontaneously and how to revert your 200+ task list items version.
How do you remove the user from the SharePoint 2013? And what permissions did the users have before you removed them?
Check if there is a rule that will change the start date spontaneously in the workflow attached with your task list, or if there is customer code or solution that will change the start date spontaneously.
If you want to revert the version of your task list items, you can achieve it by PowerShell script.
The article below is about how to restore versions by PowerShell script.

Can your Mail Preferences change without your knowledge?

Recently I noticed that my sent messages were gone, all but about 4 weeks or so. I checked account preferences on my MacBook Pro (fully updated to Mavericks) and it had "Delete Sent Messages From Server" set to "Never". My other iMac also set to the same setting. 2 iOS devices syncing to the account.
It continued to happen. I called Apple. They remotely rebuilt my email. Still did not repopulate Sent folder but did repopulat Inbox.
I called a week later (today) and went back to look at MacBook Pro mail preference settings on the accont and it had been changed from "Never" to "After One Month" (??!!??)
I didn't make this change, nor anyone in my house. Could this have changed in some way without my knowledge? I can't get my emails back (thanks Apple!!) but I don't want it to randomly happen again. They insist I am crazy and the only way it would have changed is if I, after a decade with the same preferences, went in specifically to change it.
Is this possible? Or am I truly losing my mind???
anyone?
Thanks Caroline

Ken2024,
I can understand your concern. I want to make sure that everything is okay with the account. To get the unlimited removed from the account normally a person would have to request a plan change, upgrade a device on the account, or if you had to activate a basic phone on the line for a period of time. I can always review the account for you in full detail if you would like. I have sent you a Direct Message. Please respond back to that direct message and we can get account specifics. I hope to hear from you soon.

ICloud backup settings changed without me knowing-help!

Every couple of weeks I get a message that says my icloud storage is full. When I go into my settings to check it out, there are a ton of apps chosen to be backed up. SO, I uncheck them, delete the backup and back it up again, storage is completely fine. This has been going on for a while now. What in world could be changing my settings without me knowing?

That shouldn't be happening. I would suggest you delete the account and sign back in. First save you photo stream photos to your camera roll so you don't lose them, then go to Setttings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone and provide the password when prompted. Then after minute or so, sign back in. (This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your phone, but not from iCloud. Your data will reappear on your phone when you sign back in.)

Mail settings changing on their own

I have noticed for several weeks that when I change my account mail preferences, they change back to 2 iCloud accounts and it says I have mail or junk in both of them but I am unable to find them. I have deleted both of those ghost iCloud accounts and put in my primary account, but a few hours later, the primary account is gone and 2 ghost iCloud accounts show up along with my other 2 mail accounts. Help!!!

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

CFwdALL changing without user intervention

I have a weird problem where the CFwdALL field is being set on a shared line. I have about 5 phones with DN 212500. They called saying that their line was getting set to forwarded to 212100. At first I thought it was just someone forwarding it manually, but it kept happening after I cleard the setting in CUCMAdmin. The setting would come back sporatically.
Thinking a user was still chaning this, I removed the CFwdALL from the phones' softkey templates. (users don't use CUCMUser website). The problem still happened again.
I checked the audit logs, but it appears to only show CUCMAdmin changes...is there another log I can check to find out who/what is changing this setting? CUCM 7.1.5

mmm interesting, I'd try and look at CUCM traces just in case.
Do they have any sort of TAPI/JTAPI app, AXL or something similar in use that could change this directly in the DB??
Replication might be worth checking as well.
