Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately. The incoming server details haven't changed; the Connection Doctor shows the accounts are connected; I've turned everything off including the modern. Have exhausted my limited knowledge. Anyone with something similar?

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in  mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

  • Yahoo e-mails are not being received on iphone 4.

    Yahoo e-mails are not being received on iphone 4.  I had to go website to retrieve about 50 emails from last couple of days.  Everything looks correct in settings and I haven't changed anything that I know of.  Please help if you've encountered this issue.

    I tried the suggestion of deleting the account and starting over from scratch (twice), to no avail.

  • Sent mail is not being received

    Some of my emails use my me.com account are not being received by the recipient.
    The emails show being SENT in my SENT box.

    I have a similar but perhaps unrelated problem. Every now and then, I send an email on my gmail account using Mail. The sent mail appears in my sent box, but never arrives, and does not appear in my webmail sent box (where it usually does, using gmail). Most of the time it works, and it even works most of the time with people it has had a problem with, including mail I send to myself at work at my professional address. Usually arrives...but not always. I don't know how to trust my sent mail box without always going on the webmail to make sure it actually went out. I only have this problem when using the Mail application, but there are no other common characteristics (attachements, ISPs, etc) to say there could be a problem with one of those things. Anyone else have this problem?

  • Itunes keeps telling my it can not read the contents of my iphone and that i need to reset it back to factory settings. I dont want to do that there is nothing wrong with my phone and my computer recongnizes that the phone is there.

    I tunes keeps telling me that it can not read my phone and it wants me to reset to factory setting there is nothing wrong with my phone and my computer reads the phone. What should I do I already did the restart of the apple mpbile device service.

    Do an iCloud-backup, reset the iPhone and restore is from the iCloud-backup.
    Let me know if it works

  • Sent messages not being received from my iPhone

    Starting about three weeks ago, I began having sporadic issues with text messages (SMS) and iMessages not going through.  I don't appear to have a problem RECEIVING messages, other than they sometimes are delayed by as much as 20 minutes.
    I have been on the phone with AT&T support - they point their fingers directly at Apple.  I have found no help from Apple on the issue (more finger-pointing).
    Texts (SMS) to non-iPhone users are 99% working
    Texts/Messages to iPhone users who have Messages set up - I can be having a "conversation" with them and the text bubble will change from blue to green... back to blue, back to green from message-to-message.  And about 50% of messages sent via "iMessage" are not going through.
    Of interest - it appears that Messages sent via my MacBook Pro are not having the same issue.
    One item of possible importance - I had to change my iTunes password right before this problem began (I had posted about an unauthorized movie purchase - which Apple took care of, but forced me to change both my password and to use a different funding source).
    It was about that time that messages began to act odd.
    I have tried all the settings in the "Messages" settings on my iPhone... turning iMessage off - still some SMS messages don't go through.  I read somewhere to turn off "Send as SMS" and that forces the issue... that imroved the successful sends somewhat.
    I tried removing email addresses from the "Send & Receive" address list... no change.  I then added them back... no change.
    It all also appears to be totally random. Sometimes all messages go through without a problem... at other times - the problem gets to the point I'm ready to throw my iPhone in the trash.
    But all of this still doesn't clearly put the blame on either party...  Is Apple's software tring to swap to SMS for no reason, then not actually sending the message at all?  Or is the iPhone sending the message - but AT&T isn't handling them?  Neither party wants to admit an issue.

    Yes - I am aware of (#3) the SMS splitting issue - just thought it rather odd that they come in consistently out of order, regardless of what carrier they come from.
    As far as iMesages and Apple system issues - This unforunately is shaping up to be another symptom of internal issues with Apple.  Steve would not have tolerated the inconsistent service.
    I went to lunch and completely turned off "use iMessages".  I then sent several SMS messages, all of which were delivered as expected (though my wife received a photo that I had sent her two months ago at the same time!).
    I then switched iMessages back on and tested it - and so far, all messages have gone through as they should.  I am wondering if Apple's server issues might have needed some kind of "reset" of my account by going through this again... who knows.
    Either way - so much for the old Apple addage "it just works"....

  • Emails not being received from all recipients

    Hello
    We are using SBS 2011 with SP1.
    The issue is that some emails are coming in and some are not.  We can send emails fine.  Some people are getting a 550 SMTP error.
    I did change some sort of Anti-Spam setting, but I'm pretty sure that this was on my firewall.  I've since changed it back.  Can anyone think of another place to check for Anti-Spam?
    -Kurt

    There seems to be three possibilities:  your mail server has a block on the domain or the sender or the IP or the sending domain has a block on your domain or ip or there is a third party spam filter in the middle that blocks this sender's domain or
    ip from sending through it to you.
    We can't tell absolutely that there is or is not a third party spam filter, but the message does not mention one.  It also seems unlikely that gmail is being blocked by a third party, and I would expect the NDR to disclose that information. 
    Without the ability to review your settings my best guess is your Exchange filters may have a block on this sender or gmail as a whole.  There are several places in Exchange Management Console where such blocks can be accomplished, and one
    where a sending entity can be whitelisted. 
    Please open your Exchange Management Console on the SBS server and expand the tree on the left and work your way down the list of components reviewing all the settings on the right for each component.  Let us know if you find anything useful.

  • Mail replies not being received

    Hello all,
    I have a cousin in France that I am not able to receive email from.
    My emails get through to him, but his replies are not received by me.
    I've checked with other members of the family here in Australia, and it appears that those of us who use BigPond as our ISP can send but not receive. However, we can communicate if I use my Hotmail account.
    My cousin uses Wanadoo in France as his ISP. He's using an intel iMac running Tiger V1 and Mail 2.1.3.
    As far as he knows, he hasn't set up any particular rules in Mail. He only has this problem sending to or replying to email sent via BigPond.
    BigPond tell me that it's not a problem at our end.
    So, either it's a problem at Wanadoo, or a problem with the way he's set up his account.
    A search of this forum did not turn up similar issues.
    Any suggestions gratefully received.
    Cheers.

    Looks like your doing everything that I would advise. [email protected] is more so when your sending and the outgoing spam filter is catching it from what I understand from when I had this problem a while ago.
    I would suggest the safe senders list if that helps you get your email in the inbox for the customer's

  • An e-mail is not being received

    I have tried to figure this one out for about an hour. My banker has been trying to send me an e-mail and I am not receiving it. I have been receiving all of my other e-mails and the banker has been able to send the same e-mail to others successfully.
    My first thought since I was receiving all of my e-mails except for this one is that it is a problem with the sender, but since they have not had any problems either I'm clueless to where the problem is coming from. Any information would be very much appreciated.

    Double check you are sorting the e-mail in the inbox so you can see the most recent e-mail, and that you checked your most recent e-mail, and any message that might have arrived at the same time as your banker's e-mail is in plain view when sorted by time.
    If you are filtering spam, check your spam mailbox.
    If you are not filtering spam, it is possible your internet service provider has setup a realtime blackhole for that address, and needs to stop doing that.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealtimeBlackholeList
    These are really insideous problems, because someone can spoof an address, and make it appear to certain internet providers the sender is a spammer, when in reality they are not.

  • Comcast E-mail's Not Being Received

    Hi
    Is anyone having problems with their Comcast contacts' e-mail's being catagorized by Verizon as Spam?
    I have a contact that uses Comcast e-mail where this began happening a few days ago.  I can add his e-mail in my Settings section as "Safe" and that works but I was wondering if this is a system-wide issue between Concast and Verizon e-mail.
    My contact is receiving all of my E-mail's but his incoming e-mail's are all getting sent to the Verizon Spam folder unless I add his address to the "Safe" filter list.
    I sent an e-mail to   [email protected]    with my contact's e-mail address a couple of days ago.  That doesn't seem to have had an effect on the issue.

  • I've upgraded my 4th gen ipod to ios6.  I manually manage videos and music.  My video playlists(which I can access via the music icon) are there but my videos aren't.  I can see the videos when tapping the videos icon so I know they are there. Any ideas?

    I've upgraded my 4th gen ipod to ios6.  I manually manage videos and music as it is easier to access my videos through playlists which I access through the music icon.  Since upgrading to ios6 the playlists are there but when I go into them the individual videos aren't visible.  I know they are there because I can access them through the videos icon.  Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

    Does it still turn on to the Apple logo?
    If it does, turn it on and hold it up to your ear. If it's making a clicking sound, try hitting it easy a few times on the side. The idea is the hdd is "stuck" and hitting it loosens it. Just don't do it too hard to break it.

  • Some mail sent from Mail is not being received or sent

    I am losing mail, both received and sent, intermittantly. It definitely involves my .Mac email account but I don't know if it involves others. A friend who also has a .Mac account is experiencing the same problem. It does NOT necessarily have to do with any attachments or bcc's. Is anyone else?

  • External email suddenly not being received

    I have read through a bunch of these, but can't seem to find exactly what I have going on.
    The server consistently stops receiving email from outside the domain after about an hour of restarting it. I found that restarting the microsoft exchange transport service fixes it in the same way that restarting the server does.
    This issue began after I ran windows update on the mail server, then updated the exchange certificate. I rolled this back to troubleshoot with no luck; it had been reporting that the ssl cert was about to expire in the system logs; i tried to self sign temporarily.
    I notice the backup system (unitrends) isn't succeeding every night. It throws errors every morning that says this: "(id 19364) Unable to perform backup operation, detecting that selected 'Microsoft Exchange Writer' is in failed state!" Is this
    related? The whole server seems fubar to me.
    Does anyone have any kind of material to help me troubleshoot this? Strangely, I can restart the transport service and it will receive external email for a few hours before pooping out again.

    If I run a test on the microsoft remote connectivity analyzer, it says there isn't enough storage (see below for report). Looking at the hard drives, the previous admin has cut it up into 4 sections. System (c:) 54gb/3gb free; exchange info store (e:)499gb/180gb
    free; exchangeApps (f:) 15gb/2gb free; and lastly transaction logfiles (g:) 349gb/57gb free.

  • Sent mail suddenly not being kept

    I just noticed that both mail accounts on our computer are have not kept any copied of sent mail since the beginning of NOv. No e-mail addresses have been changed and all the settings are set for the sent mail to be saved in the preferences...what is wrong? Do I have to reinstall the mail to fix this?

    For what type of account - .Mac, IMAP or POP?
    If either account is a .Mac or IMAP type account, do you select store Sent messages on the server which is available under the Special Malboxes tab for the account preferences?
    If both accounts are POP type accounts, how many messages are available in the Sent mailbox for each account?

  • Samsung note II, known issue of aol mail not being received on phone

    I spent hours on the phone with Customer Service this past Wednesday & Thursday because my aol mail is not being received on my new phone. I just did some research online, and found out this has been an issue with AOL and Verizon since December 2012. The Customer Service rep told me this just happened the past week! What a bold faced lie!
    I purchased this phone on or about July 3, and the AOL mail was working fine until this past Wednesday.
    This is a know issue, and yet the lie right to your face about it.
    I had a C/S rep tell me he would call me back later in the day, before he left work. I told him, I have heard that before. Oh, no, I will call you. Of course he didn't call. Your C/S reps think they can say whatever they want, but the calls have been monitored or tracked someway by your computer system.
    I see many others have the same problem with the Samsung Note II and their email accounts.
    Since December this has been going on, don't you think it's time you fixed the problem?
    Two years ago, when I spent $200 on a phone, I said never again. But yet I wanted a 5.5" screen so I paid up! Never again!

    I FINALLY spoke to someone today who was able to solve my problem so far.
    In the PLAY STORE....look for K9 email app.....and download that...put in your AOL email address and password. You should now be able to receive your aol email on your phone.
    It seems he has a Note II also, and had the same problem.
    You would think that MANAGEMENT would tell all their C/S reps how to solve the problem. I guess they would rather lose a customer who has been with them for 10 yrs.

  • Error message encore cs5 end action can't execute on the final chapter point

    Dvd plays great. Exported it as a mpeg 2-dvd,  video only. Audio separate as a .wav. imported video as a timeline, audio as an asset. Video is not transcoded.
    But I have a sub menu, with 6 chapter markers. I check the project and I get this: "error message encore cs5 end action can't execute on the final chapter point"
    Do I need to make a chapter playlist? Because that gave me a "orphaned playlist" error message.
    I selected the last chapter masker and had the end action go to the sub menu.
    Thanks!

    Saw a previous thread where bill hunt said it ignore it and try to burn a copy.
