Mail will not delete content of RSS feed in Snow Leopard OSX Mail Update

I have 2 RSS feeds that subscribe to in Safari and read in Mail. When I delete a link in the feed in Mail and they go to the Trash - all of the links reappear when I relaunch Mail ... the same link reappears in the RSS feed. I have deleted the links, quit Mail, re-subscribed to the RSS feed in Safari - but it still happens. It is as if you can never delete the links in the RSS feed. Did not have this problem prior to updating to Snow Leopard. Anyone know whey that is? Or is the RSS feature in Safari just poorly designed and inadequate?

The whole point is to use fewer apps if possible.
That said, anyone know how to copy/export the RSS feed addresses from within Apple Mail?

That sounds like a compatibility issue with an add-on that you have installed, as reported by a number of users in both Firefox 22 and Firefox 23 over the last couple of months. If you would provide a listing of your installed extensions ''(as you were prompted to do when creating this thread)'' maybe one of us can advise you which extension is the mot likely culprit. You will need to re-install Firefox 23 to do further diagnostic testing.
As far as the compatibility of Firefox 23 and Win XP SP3, Mozilla has verified they are compatible and not one user ''(including me on two separate PC's)'' has reported a problem with compatibility.

Daily Tips RSS feed for Snow Leopard?

Someone recently told me that there's a Daily Tips feed for Snow Leopard with general helpful hints to get the most out of it. I've been in a search frenzy, but there's a lot in the lists here and almost nothing when you type in "Tips" in the search field, and none that obviously indicate that they might be that sort of feed in the RSS feeds lists. I'm not having problems, just like to have little prods in my education as I learn the OS. I'd always been a fan of MacWorld and MacUser magazines tips scattered throughout their pages before they went beyond just the computers into everything else. Miss that because I learned SO much from them.

Yahoo mail will not delete

hi. at first, i thought i might have had a problem with the current version of firefox i had. So....i uninstalled firefox and cleaned up my system. i then proceeded to re-install firefox to the most current version which i believe is 5. so...my problem??? i seem to have trouble when using yahoo mail. for some reason...when i try to delete several emails at once by checking off the boxes next to the emails it cant be completed. sort of like the action is not able to be processed. then....if i try to go back into other aspects of yahoo mail....that will not work either so I just end up shutting down firefox all together. funny...this is the first time i have ever had a problem with firefox. i can tell you this. the computer i am using is for the most part new and i do have a good deal of knowledge of how computers work and what to do verses what you probably should not do with them. my computer is well protected with the most widely used anti virus ( AVAST ) and i am not using any fire walls. what on earth could be going on that would cause yahoo mail to crash? thanks to all whom try to help me. oh..one more thing...i checked on my other internet portals to see if this same problem occurred there and that was not the case. the problem is only present when using firefox. hope some one can explain this phenomenon....err...problem.
thanks for your time and expertise. Ryan from long island NY

Mail will not delete any messages

I have a 10.5.6 server running my mail services. I have a 10.5.6 client checking it. I currently have over 4,000 messages in my inbox and they all get downloaded when I check my mail. If I go to the account preferences in Mail.app and tell it to delete all the messages, they are not deleted. If I go to Get Account Info in Mail.app, I can see all the messages on the server. If I try to delete any of them, they're never deleted.
Now, to get more technical. I telnet into 110 on my server and user the user/pass commands to log into the POP server. Doing a "list" shows how many messages I have and how large they are.
Let's say the last one is 4133 (which it is). I do "dele 4133" to remove the message, then another "list". It shows the message is deleted. I quit out of the pop server, log back in and the same message is there.
Seeing all this, I know the messages aren't getting deleted.
Any ideas why? I have to disable my email until I get this resolved. I currently have 170,000 messages in my client's junk folder (fun times deleting those).

Yes, it was definitely within Cyrus. The Apple interfaces are pretty and all but they didn't even get close to helping me solve this easily.
Essentially, what I did was download all the emails from the server (to make sure I didn't miss anything), rename my email folder to something different to preserve the emails in case I really did miss something, then do a recover on the mailbox.
Being a UNIX-head, here's what I did on the server:
cd /var/spool/imap/user
mv scott scott.dead
sudo /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/reconstruct -r user/scott
Sudo, of course, prompted me for the superuser password but everything was fixed right away after that. It is recommended to shut down the mail service from inside the Server Admin program first.

Messages in "Mail" will not delete.

Hello, I had some troubles with my Mail application and seemed to have sorted it out, but I am unable to delete any messages. I highlight to delete and they dissapear but then they pop back within seconds. I have even used "erase mailbox" from the drop down menu and they all dissapear and then reappear again.
I've done a full system restore to see if I could fix the bug that way and it did nothing for Mail.

I had the same question. The answers I received here did not work. My son found this for me and it worked! I am now receiving mail for the first time in a week and the recovered messages file is now gone - previously, each time I deleted it, it reappeared within seconds.

Please follow below steps.
1.Take your gmail account offline from Mail and delete the recovered messages folder.
2. Download the widget to show the hidden files from http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/developer/hiddenfiles.html
3. Go to UserName/Library/Mail/IMAP-<username>@[email protected]/.OfflineCache
4. Delete all the data under .OfflineCache folder - DO NOT DELETE the folder.
5. Close Mail application and reopen.
This should do the job.
Best regards,
Aadi

RSS feed from Snow Leopard server

I want to host an RSS feed from my server. What settings would be necessary to accomplish this?

The first things to do would be to download a program that will maintain your RSS feed. Podcast spitter from the app store was the top hit when I did a search. I've not used it, but it appears that it'll do the trick.
Next, just create a website using the web service in Snow Leopard Server.
Point Podcast Spitter at the share that hosts your web site and that should do the trick.
When you upload your RSS feed, all the stuff needed to make it an RSS feed should go with it.
Granted it's a VERY thinned out version of the steps needed to take, but the concepts are correct.
If you need a more detailed description, write back with more info about how your server is set up and how it's connected to the internet.

Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check whether either the listening key or the speech key has become set to that keystroke; if so, change the setting.

tried software update but no cigar.. help!

Hi,
Snow Leopard is not a download. It only comes on Disk to Install.
It would bring you iChat 5
Only iChat 5 will work in Snow Leopard.
Check if you have tow Versions of iChat.
It should be in the Applications Folder but will get missed in the Upgrade process if it is in a sub folder (which in turn the DOCK icon may be linked to)

Mail will not delete OS 10.6.8

I recently deleted around 3,000 sent emails in my Mac account. Then I emptied the trash. Now I get this message: The message “Name of file” could not be moved to the mailbox “Trash — Kristi Work”. I can't move any emails to the trash. Not even from my junk folder. I restarted twice. Can I reinstall Mail 4.5 or rebuild the mail box?

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 the 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 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.)

Server Mail will not delete - tx.rr and Network solutions

I have an iphone 4s. My first iphone. I have two email accounts set up. Both of them are setup to delete from server when delete from inbox.
They are not working.
I have called apple and the pop 3 providers and neither can help.
I have tx.rr.com - road runner and Network Solutions (company I have a domain name with).
BOTH of these have worked corectly with my last two phones, Blackberry and Samsung Epic. But neither are working with the iphone.
Is anyone else having this issue or suggestions on what to try.
Of course I want to get apple and road runner on the same call so I don't keep getting sent back an forth to each one.
I REALLY want to be able to delete from the phone as I get so many emails due to my personal business...I want to be able to delete all day long and not have to go home and read/delete again.

TS3899 My bulk mail will not load up it only tells me how many bulk mails I have

My regular mail loads but my bulk mail won't load up

Troubleshooting is a process of elimination. Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or if it’s your User’s folder that contains the problem.
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Accounts. Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching.
Open Mail. Enter one of your POP accounts. Be sure it's set to "leave on server" under the Advanced tab.
Do you still see the issue?
If yes, then the problem is with your base files.
If no, then the problem is in your User's folder.
Let me know the results of the test.

Firefox will not restart after installing firefox sync under Snow Leopard Mac OS X

Firefox version 3.6.10
Mac OS X version 10.6.3
A similar problem also appeared in Xmarks

One side effect of all the Java updates that have been issued lately has been that some poorly-maintained Java applets have stopped working. The only solution, if this is the problem, is to request that the applet be updated.
Ask your bank's tech support if they support Java 1.6.0_33. If they don't know what you're talking about, ask to talk to a more senior representative. Continue this until you get someone who knows what you're talking about and can help you. If nobody knows what you're talking about, switch banks, because you don't want these people in charge of the electronic security that protects your money!

How do I delete contacts from address book in Snow Leopard OSX 10.6

I thought I had deleted some contacts from my Address Book but when I then typed in a similar name, all the old addresses came up as options. Can anyone help on this please?   I feel stupid having to ask something that is so simple. Many thanks.

I think I may have found my own solution thank you.    I deleted a contact in the Address Book by using Edit and deleting all the contents from the card.
I also went to the WINDOW MENU and found 'Previous Recipients".   This brought up a whole list of people who had received or sent emails and I deleted the ones I didn't need and now when I start to type in an address in my email I only get the relevant options - not ones from way back.
This might just help somebody else.
