Mail will not download from Earthlink POP account

Have two accounts set up in Mail: one is IMAP me.com account; the other is POP Earthlink account. Suddenly, today, Mail on my MBPro will not download messages from the Earthlink POP account. It asked for my password (oddly, because it is in keychain) & then would no longer download mail. Messages download to my iPhone just fine from both accounts. Have checked connection doctor (all ok), deleted messages after last download using webmail in case of malformed email, & fixed file permissions. No luck so far. Suggestions, please?

UPDATE: I deleted the me.com account and added it back in & Mail seems to be working fine again. For some reason, I have a lot of duplicate messages in the Earthlink In box now, though. Still curious as to what caused this to begin with. Is it something about the me.com account? It seemed like Mail quit downloading messages after it checked the me.com account.

  • TS3899 Mail will not download in the other account in email says it is downloading but doesn't show its downloaded

    I had this problem before back in the end of November and all of December mail will stop loading and doesn't show up this in the account settings OTHER . I have deleted the account and reloaded it did a hard restart still the same it starts and says downloading but it doesn't show up on the phone this is doing the same thing on my ipad also . So one would think it is the server for my email account it is not because it works fine on my mack air and also the imac so I'm confused what would be the next step any ideas ?

    Use the links in the iTunes Music Store itself to tell them of the problem. Or the links under the help menu of iTunes.

  • Mail will not send from designated email account

    I have several emails set up in Mail. Everything has been working great until a couple days ago. I haven't changed anything, made any updates, or added any new accounts.
    Let's call the two accounts A and B. My main account is A. When I am sending an email, A is my default. It is designated as such. When I send an email from account A, I double check in each email. It shows it is coming from that default account. However, my recipient is receiving the email from account B. I only know this because when they reply, their response shows up in account B's inbox. The weird thing? My sent email folder shows as being sent from the correct account-- account A.
    I have re-installed the accounts, double-checked everything.  The problem still exists.
    This is the weirdest issue. Anyone know what could be causing this?
    Thanks so much for the help.

    Probably because it is using the server of account B to send from. When it goes through B's server, the server changes the sent address to that of B's email address. Either you have the wrong outgoing server set up for account A or there is a problem with it and it's switching to account B's server.
    Open account preferences and highlight account A. Look at the SMTP server list and see which it shows. Select the correct one and check the box to use only that server for that account. If it fails in the future, you will get an alert that it failed and the option to choose another outgoing server.
    Make sure all information for that server is correct and that it has the correct user name and password. Once you get that working, do the same for account B and make sure it has the correct outgoing server and check the box for that one also.

  • TS3276 Mail will not send from any of my accounts & connection doctor indicates that I am connected

    Mail will not send from any of my accounts & connection doctor indicates that I am connected

    When did this start?
    What specifically happens when you try to send Mail?
    Are you able to receive mail from all of the accounts? any of the accounts?
    Are all the email accounts with the same provider?
    In Console > All messages search on Mail and see if there are any error messages

  • Mail will not open from dock and wont allow me to shut down, Help?

    My mail will not open from the dock and if I try and close my computer it is prevented by the application mail being open.  Help please.

    You can try to Force Quit the Mail application by using the keys OPTION COMMAND ESC, from the window that pops up select Mail and clcik force quit.
    Have you tried launching Mail from your Applications folder? It launches properly, drag the icon off the dock, it should vanish in a puff of smoke, you can then go to the Applcations folder and drag the Mail icon back to the dock to create a new shortcut.

  • I just upgraded to Photoshop cs6 so that my new camera (Nikon D7100) would work in Camera Raw.  However, it will not download from the  "Update" option in CS6.

    I just upgraded to Photoshop cs6 so that my new camera (Nikon D7100) would work in Camera Raw  (I was told that the Camera Raw update 8.3, which is available for CS6, included this camera).  However, it will not download from the  "Update" option in CS6.  I have tried over 10 times - it just says update is not working. and I cannot find an alternate way of downloading this file. So I still can use my camera, even thought I paid to upgrade.  HELP please.

    What OS do you have?  You say you have explained what you had (computer/opsys) but I honestly don't see it here.  If you had mentioned that my advice would have been different; I believe you can only upgrade as far as Camera Raw 8.3 on an older Windows system.  There is more information here (look specifically for the "Revert to 8.3 ..." titles).
    Adobe Camera Raw Help | Camera Raw/DNG Converter 8.4 on Mac OS 10.6, Windows XP, and Vista
    What you've done/written in your last post confuses things further, unfortunately.  Photoshop 13.1 is strictly a Creative Cloud version.  The highest you can go is Photoshop CS6 13.0.1.3 with perpetual license.
    And as far as I can recall, that version can work on Windows back to XP:
    System requirements | Photoshop
    I don't think you're out of luck, but you seem to be leaping into doing things without having the full story, and are jumping to conclusions a bit too quickly.
    Here's what I suggest you try:
    1.  Remove Photoshop entirely with the Creative Suite Removal Tool: 
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    2.  Install Photoshop CS6 from your original media or from here: 
    Download CS6 products
    3.  Update the application using its own Help - Updates process.  That really should get you the latest Camera Raw version that will work.  If that does not bring you a Camera Raw that works with your Nikon, use the "Revert to 8.3" instructions above.

  • How often does Mail download from a POP account?

    I'm trying to help a friend, but I'm not that Apple-savvy. I know in Windows mail clients, there are settings to adjust how often mail is downloaded from a POP server, but I couldn't find any such setting in my friend's MacBook mail application. He is running 10.4.11. Does it only download each time you launch the mail application or click the "Get Mail" button? Does it download on some pre-set schedule that can't be changed? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    "but I couldn't find any such setting in my friend's MacBook mail application."
    I believe the equivalent setting is:
    Mail>Preferences>General>*Check for new mail.*
    "Does it download on some pre-set schedule that can't be changed?"
    You can change the times for the +"Check for new mail"+ setting manually or use the computer setting.

  • Please help. Mail will not download emails.

    Please can someone help. Mail says that it's checking for email, but will not download anything, even though it shows that there are now 11 messages. This has been happening for over 24hrs. I have good wifi and 3G access and haven't changed any settings. The only difference in the last few days is updating OS via iTunes.

    Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My mail will not download on my ipad ?

    I have a new iPad.  I have set up the email account but the email will not download. What am I doing wrong?

    If you delete the account off the iPad you won't delete the info permanently, although you will delete it off your device. If you delete it off your iPad the data will come back when you re-add it.

  • Podcast episodes will not download from podcast stream

    I have set up a podcast on my website to download sermons. I created the xml file which I tested in my feeds section of my browser. The xml file works perfectly there in that all the episodes are listed with thier respective audio files. If you click on the actual audio file it downloads the way that it should and plays. I copied the xml file location and went into Itunes and chose subdcribe to a pod cast. It asked for the url which I pasted the xml file location. Itunes displayed all of my episodes the way that it should. The problem then starts. When I click on an episode to download the audio file the episode name flashes for a second or 2 in the window on top and then nothing. The audio file will not download on any of the episodes. It lists them all but other then that I can't do anything with them. My xml file location is: http://www.stpaulsconway.org/stpaulssermons.xml What could I possibly be doing wrong?

    Glad to hear that you have solved your problem.
    May I suggest that if you have any further questions regarding Podcasts that you are producing, that you post the question in the Producing Podcasts community, where people with more specific knowledge will be sure to help you.

  • Mail will not send from iPhone on .Mac Account!

    This is weird. From my .Mac account when I try to send an email message, I get the "Cannot Access Outgoing Mail Server", whereas if I set up a Gmail account on the same phone, it sends just fine.
    I've deleted and re-created the account, restored, updated, software, and all the above again, been to the Genius Bar -- yet remain stymied. Is there some simple solution I've overlooked?

    Your problem is with Cox and Cox not having an authenticated SMTP server.
    Not many ISPs provide an authenticated SMTP server and I'm not sure why - especially with laptops and devices such as the iPhone so popular.
    I'm a Time Warner/RoadRunner customer for cable and internet access and I quit using my RR email account several years ago for this very reason. I switched to using my .Mac account as my primary personal email account which has an authenticated SMTP server. I'm able to send messages with the account regardless the internet service provider used for internet access. My business POP account also has an authenticated SMTP server and no problems sending with this account either - via a number of different Wi-Fi connections and EDGE.
    I suggest seriously considering switching to another email account. A Gmail account is free, can be accessed as a POP or IMAP account with the email client on your computer as well as with the iPhone's email client, has a good spam filter at the incoming mail server, and has an authenticated SMTP server.
    If you ever move or decide to change your ISP from Cox to a different ISP, your email account and address will not need to change. You can access and send messages with a Gmail account with any ISP - the same with a .Mac account. And you'll have much more server storage space than Cox provides.
