Mailbox full- emptying doesn't work?

My friends and family have alerted me that when they try to send me an email, they receive an alert email in response saying that my mailbox is full. Also, when I open my Mail program and the little loading circle flashes next to the Inbox Icon, an exclamation point icon appears. When I click on it, an alert pane appears, reading "Alert - The IMAP server for "[email protected]" wishes to alert you to the following: Mailbox is over quota" With this information, I went ahead and deleted about 500 emails, including the ones that took up the most space (pictures, etc). Unfortunately, this did not solve anything. No one can send me an email, and the little alert still comes up. Please help.

A short term solution is going to your mail on line and deleting your mail there as "jjb.mac" explain.
or
- Go to Mail preferences - go to accounts - go to Advance - Hit the button that says "Remove now"
Right next to that are where you set your preferences.

  • Mavericks, AppleTV-3, Accessibility Zoom, Zoom Style:  Full Screen, doesn't work at all. Help.

    I'm a teacher using an AppleTV 3 (latest updates) to project & teach FCP X in a large iMac lab. Using my Macbook Pro (late 2011), I could use any of the Zoom, Zoom Styles.  However, since upgrading to Mavericks, I have an issue when projecting my laptop screen to white screen. The problem is when using Accessibility Zoom, Zoom Style:  Full Screen, doesn't work at all. Strangely, Zoom Style: Picture in Picture works fine. I've tried other macs running Mountain Lion, both work without issue. Please help. This is killing my effectiveness.

    Is the page size of the PDF 8.5 inches wide? What do you have set for the "Acrobat > Preferences > Page Display > Custom Resolution" setting? What is the pixels/inch spec for your display?
    I have a 13" MacBook Pro. The display is 1280x800 pixels and about 11-1/4 inch wide.
    1280 pixels / 11.25 inch = 113.8 pixels/inch
    When calibrated using the method I mentioned above, my custom resolution setting in Acrobat is 114 pixels/inch, which is close enough to the spec of 113 for this display.
    Yes its 8.5 wide I printed a test page its formatted 8.5 by 11
    Acrobat does a little differently. Word and other applications, for example 100% means to physically see right, & left edge, and top & bottom. you see the entire page without scrolling. an 8.5 by 11 page.  If you want to see 8.5 width you set page width which for Portriat page its 292%
    My monitor settings 1920 by 1200
    DPI system default 131 custom 110
    Also on Mac what you see on screen depends upon the Printer used.  (Just FYI only)

  • After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.

    After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.
    I need to run the erase free space option from the disk utility every time...which is really annoying and time consuming.
    Any ideas how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance =)

    There is a thing in iPhoto whereby the first time you delete a photo it asks if you want to delete or just remove from the album, something like that.  Unfortunately it is one of these things with a "don't ask me again" checkbox.  Now, "deleting" photos only removes them from the album they are in.  To actually trash them I must then go to "all photos" and find them, to send them to the trash.   To help find them, what I do is rename them zzz or something, so sorting them will get them to the bottom of my collection.  Just maybe your photos are still lurking around?

  • Cross-mailbox conversation expansion doesn't work

    In Mail for Mountain Lion, when a conversation has messages in different mailboxes, the gray box to expand/collapse the conversation doesn't work. The number of messages shown only reflects the ones in the Inbox (or active mailbox, probably; I've only tested Inbox). Is this intentional or a bug? If intentional, is there any way to configure the behavior differently, so expand/collapse works?

    A little more color on this: If there are 2 or more messages in the active mailbox (and others in a different mailbox), the expand/collapse function works for the messages in the active mailbox. In the message column on the right, all the messages in the conversation are shown (both mailboxes). Only those messages in the active box are shown in the list column when the conversation is expanded. I can kind of see how this might be intentional, but it's strange to see lots of messages in the conversation in the right column, but only one or a few corresponding items in the messge list.

  • Partial or full update doesn't work

    Hi,
    I try to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox (v.37) but (both in partial as in full update) I only see the window asking to run or save the installer and after that "nothing". The installer file "Firefox setup Stub 37.0.1.exe (238kb) is downloaded but doesn't seems to run. On this moment I already deleted the old version, so I have to work with IE

    What I found out is that after clicking on the installer, I very briefly see the window with "Extracting" but it closes as quickly as it opens

  • I have problem with Flash Player. Full screen doesn't work correctly. Turning off hardware acelleration helps but I want this option to work.

    Problem exist only on YouTube. When i want get full screen, I have black screen with audio. If I click few times full screen button it helps, but I want to go to full screen by one click.
    If i turn off hardware acceleration everything is ok but vids looks terrible.
    I have this problem with Flash Player 10. No 9 works good, but some websites wants no. 10

    Generaly FP works, but problem is that i must press few times full screen button. Now i have turn off hardware accelleration, but movies are quite bad.
    I have already installed newest graphic drivers but it didn't help.
    Everything was good unless Flash Player and Mozilla notificated that update is necessary :<

  • Yosemite mail mailbox alphabetical sort doesn't work

    Why am I having trouble getting one mailbox into proper alphabetical order, and how can I fix it? It moved a mailbox to end of list, and I can't move it back w/o a lot of trouble, involving possible loss of the mailbox & subfolders along w/ it.

    so I was on the phone to AppleCare on another matter... and I thought I'd get this one looked at...  and SOLVED!
    I was initially told by first support that they hadn't heard of this issue, so I pointed out this wasn't something new to Yosemite and has gone back years in OSX mail in my experience. A supervisor was put on the phone.
    we started with the smaller of two Gmail IMAP accounts:
    BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP <<< don't say I didn't warn you!
    tried the un-enable/re-enable again... to no avail
    then we opted to un-enable and add the Account again using the Mail/Preferences pane (didn't resolve the issue).
    Then mail did something a little odd. On deletion of this replicated Gmail IMAP account it removed BOTH copies of that account!
    But when we re-added it again, it had resolved the Alphabetical mailbox issue!!! HUZZAH
    ...due to the amount of mail that was then re-caching we opted to resolve the iCloud mail account next.
    This time on clicking remove it launched the Internet Accounts pane Mail/ACCOUNTS not the Mail/Preferences/Accounts pane that we where in.
    clicked on iCLOUD and unticked Mail. Back into Mail/Preferences/Accounts and deleted iCloud account...this took us BACK to the Internet Accounts pane where we opted to remove the entire iCloud Account.
    ** at this point you will be presented with lots of DELETE/ MERGE pop ups as you are removing contacts/calendars etc... so be warned!!!!
    but on re-adding the iCloud Internet Account, it had resolved the Alphabetical mailbox issue again! HUZZAH
    Now the reason I've posted all the waffle to this simple REMOVE and RE-ADD solution
    is that it didn't do what I was expecting when clicking the remove mail account symbol, and I thought it best to point this out to others having the issue.
    and apart from it messing up my Address Book ON MY MAC Vs iCloud contacts (which was resolved thanks to that backup I took before I did  all this)
    all is now well in the Alphabetical mailbox dept (for me)
    Hope it works for you too!

  • X-Fi Fatal1ty PCI Doesn't Work With ART Tube MP Project USB in CUBASE 3

    Hi
    I've got X-Fi with Art Tube MP USB which uses standart Windows USB Audio Device driver. In 'Control panel -> Sound & Audio Devices' I select Output: X-Fi, Input (Rec): USB Audio Device because I need sound output from X-fi and input from USB Audio Device (Art Tube MP).
    In Cubase 3 everything works fine with ASIO Multimedia driver. But latency is?VERY big. If I select 'Creative ASIO' in doesn't work at all. ASIO4ALL, ASIO DirectX Full Duplex doesn't work also.
    My question is how to get things to work. I want to record from ART Tube MP and listen from X-Fi. With LOW latency.

    screw it.. i dunno... bad drivers, that's what i'm accounting it to. Nobody seems to know what the problem is anymore.
    With that said, the card works wonderfully now =D
    Someone on this board mentioned some third party drivers, so I went and found them. I had no troubles installing and have had no troubles with the drivers
    since their installation a few days ago.
    These drivers are not supported nor created by Creative (as far as I know). Use the drivers at your own risk.
    First, go to this address and read up on their drivers and how to install and what not. All the posts you should care about are sticked, so read the stickies!
    http://www.youp-pax.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=3&page=
    I noticed that the links to their drivers are lousy/don't work. Some nice person went and hosted all their files on a different site.
    http://hosted.filefront.com/robertmc84
    Be very cautious when downloading their drivers from filefront. The host has numerous old versions up and the file names aren't always 00% copy/paste from
    the YouP Pax site, so be certain you have the right file before downloading/installing.
    READ THE STICKIED INSTALLATION GUIDE! Same thing as with the installing Creatives' drivers, if you don't completely uninstall former drivers, bad things happen.

After tht it shut off and i ot my charger today and it wont turn on it also gave me a blue light which was kinda like an electric shock. Someone help plz

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Mail:  ANY doesn't work in smart mailboxes or rules?

    I want to create a smart mailbox that will copy and archive  all messages to/from a particular recipient and e-mails to/from others about the subject of most of the conversation with that recipient.  I want the archiving to happen as they arrive in my inboxes and not automatically remove them from the servers--some I still need on the servers to access from multiple locations/machines.
    But I can't even get to the archiving issue:  the smart mailbox that says 'contains ANY message' meeting these rules:
    contains recipient1
    contains subject2
    always has fewer messages than one that simply 'contains recipient1' so the ANY condition, that in boolean terms should be an OR combination, appears to functionally act as an AND.
    When I tried to create a smart mailbox folder to contain two mailboxes, one for contains name1 and one for contains subject2, each of which separately works fine, clicking the smart mailbox folder containing both leaves the window empty, so I can't see the messages name1 and subject2 interlaced in the date sent order or any other.  I just get one group or the other by clicking the submailboxes.
    And trying to bypass the problem using rules doesn't work either--the 'any' command is as dysfunctional there as it is in the smart mailbox dialog.  I can manually search for the relevant terms (recipient1 and  subject2) and option+drag them to a mailbox for archiving, but this results in many duplications, especially if repeated over time, not a happy result.
    Some searching here and googling suggests that the ANY command is problematic in this OS for a lot of people, but is there a known fix?  Or a better way to create a 'smart' archive to do what I want?

    Okay, I think I understand better now.  So I just ran a test, by creating the following rule:
    I specifically chose an address (obviously not the one shown) that I had a message from in my Inbox, and a word that was present in the subject line of several messages in my Inbox.  When I ran this rule on my Inbox, it copied exactly the messages I would have expected into the test mailbox.  Are you seeing different behavior with the same rule, or is your rule constructed differently?
    If the difficulty is with running the rule, note that (as I said earlier) rules only run automatically on unread incoming messages.  It won't run automatically on existing messages or on messages on an IMAP mail server that you have read on another device using (in which case they will have been marked as read).  If you need to run this in such conditions, you'll have to either run the rule manually or run it via an AppleScript or something similar that is somehow (via something other than Mail) made to execute at certain times/intervals or under certain conditions.
    And you're correct, a smart mailbox would be totally inappropriate for what you're trying to do!  It would behave exactly as you guessed.

  • Mail: smart mailbox contents disappears/search doesn't work & fix is only temporary

    Since installing Mavericks (including the Mail update), the contents of my Smart Mailboxes disappears (the Mailboxes themselves are listed, there's just no content) and my ability to get results from Search within Mail disappears. 
    I have done a lot of searching here and via Google and read other people with similar problems.  I have done the usual magical stuff: resetting permissions (including the version that involves the command "resetpassword"), deleting caches, etc. - but to no avail.
    Spotlight clearly knows about all this mail, because I can find it with HoudahSpot, which uses the same database, but somehow Mail is not able to read what Spotlight knows.
    Now there is a commonly recommended fix, which is to go to Terminal and type some version of:
    mdimport ~/Library/Mail/V2
    This works (as does reindexing the entire disk)!  But only for about a half-hour to an hour, at which point Mail reverts to its previous state.  Running the command again works again, but once again the cure goes away shortly after.  Once again, the Smart Mailboxes are empty and search in Mail stops giving reslts.
    Can anyone suggest a real, permanent solution to this problem, besides switching to another email program?

    Okay, I think I understand better now.  So I just ran a test, by creating the following rule:
    I specifically chose an address (obviously not the one shown) that I had a message from in my Inbox, and a word that was present in the subject line of several messages in my Inbox.  When I ran this rule on my Inbox, it copied exactly the messages I would have expected into the test mailbox.  Are you seeing different behavior with the same rule, or is your rule constructed differently?

    Thanks, but, using the "free" version of Reader, there is no opportunity to open nor import the xml data - the menu options do not exist - there is no import listed.
    If we try to open the xml file directly, then we get an error - something to the effect of "unsupported file type, or the file is corrupted".
    I just noticed in my Pro version that there is the command File ->Form Data ->Import Data to Form... command. Is this what you are referring to?
    What do you recommend? Perhaps the easiest thing to do would be to purchase a few copies of Acrobat Pro for the reservations people to use? I was hoping that the free version of reader would do it, but perhaps not?
    Thanks again,
