Mail won't update when I'm not using it..

Hi guys,
I have been having some trouble with my Mail, I use hotmail and the mail app on iPhones just recently it hasn't been updating when I'm not in the app, so I have been missing a lot of emails and they haven't been showing and only show when I go on the app and refresh it manually! It used to do it automatically but now it's stopped, I might of clicked something on settings but I'm not sure what! Not sure if this makes a difference I put on airplane mode through the night (something I have always done anyway) when I first turn off all the mail comes through automatically then from the night time however after this I get nothing without manually going into the app! If anyone can help me sort this I would be very grateful.

  • My mail won't open and keeps on "not responding"

    My mail won't open and keeps on "not responding"

    Do a backup.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

  • Document info fields in Word won't update when placed in document header-section

    Dear all,
    I have a document library using 3 Content Types with metadata columns and a Word-template.
    The values of these metadata columns should be displayed within the Word-documents created from content type.
    So I've inserted document info fields into the Word-template to display them.
    But unfortunately the placeholders are not updated when opening the document again, after metadata values had been changed e.g. by using the edit-form within the list.
    From what I have seen so far, this only refers to document info fields resident in header or footer sections. 
    But this is where I need to place them.
    Does anybody know this issue and has an idea of how to fix it?
    Could VBA be of use here?
    Best regards,
    Ben

    Hi,
    Based on your description, document info fields in Word won't update when placed in document header-section.
    Per my test, document info fields in Word will update when placed in document header-section.
    Refer to the following article about Add SharePoint Metadata to Word Documents:

  • Should  I leave my macbook plugged in when I'm not using it?

    Should I leave my macbook charging cable plugged in when I'm not using it?

    It won't hurt anything (i.e., it won't overcharge). It isn't a good idea to leave it plugged in 100% of the time. One common recommendation is to use the battery at least one cycle per month without ever deeply discharging it. Ways to do that would be to use it on battery power until it is discharged to 50% twice during a month or to 80% 5 times during a month or some other combination that adds up to roughly 100% usage once per month at a minimum. Another way of stating that is that you should use the battery sometimes.

  • Should I unplugged my A Extreme daily when I'm not using the mac?

    Should I unplugged my A Extreme and my Mac daily when I'm not using them?

    Only if you want to save electricity. Otherwise it is not necessary. If anyone else is using the WiFi from the Extreme, it won't be available if it's turned off. Maybe that is not an issue.

    Hi, 
    I was trying to create and update the calendar event using [POST] https://outlook.office365.com/api/v1.0/me/events and [PATCH] https://outlook.office365.com/api/v1.0/me/events/<eventId> respectively.
    When i try with poster or postman, I get this error
    {error: {code: "ErrorInvalidRequest" message: "Cannot read the request body."} }
    its not working . Any help will be appreciated.
    Note: GET events and DELETE Events are working. I think the API with payload is not working.

  • I am getting electric current type shocks whilst using my track pad on my macbook pro. This happens when it is both plugged in to charge and also unplugged. I am left with a constant type pain of prickly pins and needles even when I am not using it.

    I have recently bought a Macbook pro and have noticed that I am getting an electric current running up my fingers when using the track pad. This happens when it is charging but most worryingly it happens when it is not plugged in. It leaves me with pins and needles type feeling in my hand and arm even when I am not using it. Also when I sit it on my lap I get the same electrical current in my legs and down to my feet.
    Surely this cannot be what I should expect with an apple product?, has anyone else experienced this?.
    Yesterday I couldn't bare to use it the current was so strong.  I went out for the rest of the day and suffered with pins and prickly needles all day.

    Two possible courses of action suggest themselves:
    (1) Return your computer immediately to point of purchase and/or authorized service provider.
    or
    (2) Consult with your doctor about your neurological symptoms.

  • MacBook Pro 13" i7 2011 Freezing when I'm not using it.

    I've got the 2011 MacBook Pro 13" i7 with 256GB SSD. It runs really2x fast and am very pleased with it. However, It has a weird issue... It totally freezes when I'm not using it sometimes. It's happened three times now and every time it freezes it would be when i left it for a while like seconds to 5 mins and when i get back it's already frozen. Note, it didn't freeze from coming from screensaver or sleep. How I left the screen is what I see when I get back. I can't move the cursor, the keys don't respond, when I close the lid it doesn't sleep. I'd have to press and hold the power button to force shut it down and boot up again.
    I've already contacted Apple Support the second time it happened. The tech was friendly and we did some reseting of PRAM and stuff. I just put up iStat on my menubar to see if anything weird would show there if it ever freezes again after now the third time it happened!
    Please help! This is annoying.
    My specs:
    Mac OS X 10.6.7
    MacBook Pro 13" i7 20011
    2.7 GHz, 8GB ram, 256GB SSD.

    Thanks,
    The sad thing is where I am, I don't think there are Apple replacements here yet. I had my mac bought in the US and brought by relatives all the way to the southern part of the Philippines.
    It's just weird. I would understand more if my mac froze under a heavy task which so far it hasn't. I have run TWO Windows 7 instances: one Boot Camp, the other virtual, had a whole lot of applications running and while Even playing Star Craft 2! And it run so smoothly I was so impressed. It just so happens to hang when I leave it there doing nothing! ??

  • Even when I charge my Mac Pro to the full bar, the battery seems to be drained even when I am not using it. Example, after charging it full, i switched it on the next day and its 79% battery left. Is there something wrong? help please

    Assuming you are disconnecting from line power, when you say switched on, do you mean it was shutdown or in sleep mode?  If sleep mode the battery will still drain because sleep still keeps some things active and the battery does drain a little.  However, to go from 100% to 79% charge overnight is a bit excessive in sleep mode.  Unless you have some processes set to activate over night by the cron file and do things like backup the system.
    What are the statistics on the battery, the apple in the upper left corner, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Power...things like battery Condition, Capacity, remaining charge, voltage, current.

  • How do I turn AppleTV off when I'm not using it?

    How do I turn off AppleTV when I'm not using it?

    It actually goes to sleep instead of powering off. Apple TV only uses 6 watts of power. That would mean 10 Apple TVs would consume the same amount of power as one 60 watt bulb and that's when it's on (not in the sleep mode).
    You can set it to go to sleep after 15 min., 30 min., etc. of inactivity in settings. I think the default is 15 min. That doesn't include watching a movie. You can also put it in the sleep mode in settings, but the easiest way is with the remote.
    Hold the Play/Pause button on the reomte for 5 secs to put it to sleep. This only works from the main menu. To go to the main menu quickly, hold the menu button for 3 secs.

  • My iphone 5, with iOS 7.0.2, is heating and consuming the battery very fast when 3G is on, even when I'm not using it. Any solution?

    My iphone 5, with iOS 7.0.2, is heating and consuming the battery very fast when 3G is on, even when I'm not using it. Any solution?

    iOS 7 has many multiple tasks. You can save battery life to some extent by few steps. First go to location services and bettr 'Off' them which are not needed. (Ex. Notes.. Reminders.. Etc). Also you can off few apps in 'get notifications' centre. Also usage of 3g by any mobile consumes much battery life. Better to connect any Wi-fi
