Make Mail check for Mail every minute?

I recently got an iPhone 3G to replace my original iPhone, on my original I had the setting for mail to check for mail every minute, now mine is set on manual, but I can't find the setting to change it. Someone please help me, thank you.

Push. That is what push is. It means that changes are sent as they happen.
"Email accounts that use the push method for message retrieval enable you to have email messages delivered directly to you as soon as the message is received by your email provider instead of checking periodically or manually for new messages. On iPhone or iPod touch, push email is supported for the following email account types:
MobileMe
Microsoft Exchange
Yahoo!
Other email accounts such as POP, IMAP, AOL or Gmail accounts do not support push message retrieval on iPhone or iPod touch but can instead be setup to fetch mail at specified intervals or manually when the Mail application is opened."

Apple mail will not recieve emails without delay. Going offline is not working. Connection Doctor is successfull. Mail check set to every minute.

I am using Apple mail on my Imac. My emails are coming in but always late...the delay varies from 15 minutes to over an hour.
Im using imap...email hosting is via Godaddy. (imap.secureserver.net) I would normally blame Godaddy, but I use the same account on my Iphone... yet their is no problems whatsoever. I set them up using the exact same information.
- Mail check is set to every minute.
- Connection Doctor successfully connects right away for both incoming and outgoing.
- Closing the program and reopening does not work... Nor does going offline and checking for mail.
- Check mail button does nothing...literally nothing.
Currently using Yosemite 10.10.2
Any help would be greatly appreciated!:)

Delete the GoDaddy account from Internet Accounts (make sure to select Remove All)
Locate the Cached folder, after you find the com.apple.mail folder, delete everything inside the cache (all folders and files)
Restart your machine
Re-add your email account from within Apple Mail: Mail - Accounts... - Add Other Account
Fill out your account info fully, re-launch Mail

How can I make Firefox check for the newest update of a website automatically instead of having to reload every time I go to it?

IE Explorer has the option to check for newest version of a web page every time it is visited. With Firefox it seems I have to hit reload every time I go to an often visited web page. Is there a setting I am missing somewhere to fix this?

# Type ''about:config'' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message, this brigs up a list of preferences
# In the filter box type ''check''
# Double-click on the preference browser.cache.check_doc_frequency and change its value to 1
For more details on this preference see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.check_doc_frequency

Updating to Quicktime 7.2 makes finder crash and relaunch every minutes

Hey,
Since I have updated to qt7.2 my finder keeps crashing and relaunching itself every 3-4 minutes. Anybody experiencing the same problem or having a solution.
Thanks

Is there anything you're doing in particular at the time it crashes? One thing to check for is whether you have Preview turned on as one of the View options, there's currently an issue where certain movies can cause a crash, and if Finder is showing a preview of one of those movies, that would be enough to crash Finder.

How to make Authority Check for ALVGrid?!

Hey mates,
i got the problem which is mentioned in the headline. How can i make an authority check for my ALVGrid? I mean i want to restrict special functions to the matching users ( Display, Edit, Delete mode ).
Would be cool if someone can help
Regards Basti

Hello Bastian
A simple approach would be to define three different transactions (e.g. Z_MYALV01, Z_MYALV02, Z_MYALV03) for editing/deleting, editing only and displaying only. Add the following coding to the report displaying your ALV grid:
CASE syst-tcode.
    WHEN gc_tcode_create.    " 01
      " Allow all grid functions
    WHEN gc_tcode_change. " 02
      " Suppress grid functions for deleting rows
    WHEN gc_tcode_display. " 03
      " Suppress grid functions for editing/deleting
    WHEN others.
      RETURN.
   ENDCASE.

Checking for Purchases (Every Time)

Every time I open iTunes 7.2 it asks me for my Apple ID and password so it can check for purchased items. It's super weird. I have no purchased items to download and the "Check automatically for purchased content" is unchecked in the prefs.
I've tried entering my password and hitting "check"... tried hitting "cancel". Nothing works. Tried hitting up the email tech support and was sent articles on authorizing my computer. Thanks Apple.
iTunes still asks for my password and ID every time I open the program. I can still use the program no prob, but it's annoying and leads me to think there's Something Very Wrong.
Anybody got a fix? Thanks!

I fixed it on my machine. I found a file called list.plist in a folder called Downloads in my iTunes Music folder. After I moved this file to the trash, the behavior stopped.
I first verified that I had no other outstanding downloads before I deleted the file. I don't know what will happen if you do have outstanding downloads and delete this file. It would suck to lose music you paid for so proceed with caution.
I think I know what caused it in my case. I tried to buy a drm free album the day they came out. The downloads kept timing out because iTunes was getting slammed. Eventually I was able to get the download to complete but after that I was getting the annoying check for downloads prompt every-time I launched iTunes. The list.plist file I found contains references to the music file names that were timing out.

My Ipad2 is turning off all Icloud settings and asking for password every minute

Hi,
My Ipad2 is turning off all my icloud settings by itself and asking for the password every minute. After about an hour it works again but only for a few days and starts turning off the settings again.
This started about 3 weeks ago an even when it starts working again for a few days there are still some photos and contacts missing. But on my IPhone and on icloud.com everything is fine.
Has anyone an idea what is happening?

Hi,
Thanks for the tip. I deleted the Account and at least everything is back on my ipad. But it was asking for the password a few times since then.
But if it stops turning off all my settings i could live with putting in the password every hour...
I will see if it stops deleting and turning off.

How can I get gmail to automatically check for messages every 5 minutes on my 4S?

I am new to my Iphone 4s. I use gmail for my mail application. One special from address is urgent when I get a message. I have flagged this address as a VIP and assigned loud tones and notifications in the notifications function but a message was sent to me but nothing "arrived and nothing happened" until I opened mail again. I need this message and the notification to be intrusive!

There is no option to Fetch email every 5 minutes.
The options are:
Every 15 Minutes
Every 30 Minutes
Hourly
Manually
These settings are in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data
The only other option is to set the email account up as Exchange so that as new emails arrive they are pushed to the device.

Startup Control Panel makes it freeze for about a minute or so before allow

before allowing me to switch over to OS X. I open it, then it freezes for a minute or so until finally I can select the other operating system. It never used to do that. It always let me choose it like 3-5 seconds after opening. Is it a corrupt file?

Hi IcyCool7227
Could be. More information would be helpful such as what is the other operating system, how much free disk space in the partitions.

Check for new mail not working on one account

For a number of months now I have been having trouble getting new mail. I have my Apple Mail 2.1 preferences set to check for new mail every minute and play a New Mail Sound when something arrives. This seems to be working for my earthlink POP account but not my dot.mac e-mail account. The only way to get new dot.mac e-mail on my G5 tower is to alternately click on the left most icons for the different incomming tray icons in my in box, then the InBox icon itself. I dont have to do that for my second e-mail account--an earthlink POP account, or on either account on my laptop. Also, When I do click on the specific in box for my dot mac account, it takes forever to load that new mail, and the activity monitor shows that it is caching every attachment that is already in my in box even though it is already old mail.
Also, Mail seems to be following Smart Mailboxes arbitrarily. For instance, I have a smart mailbox set up to display any incoming mail from someone in my Family Group from address book, however it seems to ignore about half of these, but display the other half accurately.
Anyone know whats going on or how to fix it so I dont have to mannually keep checking for new mail? Again, I have my preferences set to check for new mail every minute and to play a new mail sound, and new mail does work fine from my Earthlink POP account.
Thanks for your help.

If this happens to your .Mac account only, try rebuilding the mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox > Rebuild.

Mail stops checking for new mail until closed and re-opened

This problem began a month or so ago and is only getting worse by the day. I have my Mail app set to check for new mail every minute, but recently it randomly stops checking at all and displays the triangle icon next to each Inbox. I have 10 different email accounts that I use Mail to check and they are a variety of different types from Exchange servers, to IMAP accounts, to POP accounts, iCloud, Outlook.com, Gmail, etc. Part of the time only 2 or 3 inboxes are affected, while other times (more recently) it’s ALL accounts. Clicking on Get Mail doesn’t help; no new mail is downloaded. The only way to get Mail to “wake up” is to close the app and then re-open it. When I do that, there is a flood of new mail that pours in to each account that had been offline. There are never any error messages telling me that anything has happened. I just know that Mail is stuck because of the triangle icon.
Also, there are times when my busiest account mysteriously has no new messages over a few hours, which is very unusual. Closing and re-opening mail will resume downloading mail again to that account. At least for awhile...
I thought I’d solved the problem by thinking that my router was only working intermittently, so I replaced it with a new Time Capsule. The problem did not go away.
I’ve talked to Apple Support and they’ve not been any help. I’d welcome any suggestions.

Is there an app that will check for mail or notify me instantly when I get new email?

Every 15 minutes is just not quick enough.
I checked the app store & couldn't find an app that would check for mail every minute. Am I missing it?
I know about the potential for battery drain.
Thanks in advance.

Mac Mail: Check for new messages doesn't work

Hi,
In Mac Mail the setting at "Preferences -> Check For New Messages" I have set for manual and yet Mail still fetches emails when I haven't asked it too. I previously had this setting set to check for messages every hour but it ignored that setting too so I set it to manual but this setting is ignored. Ideally I'd like to check mail every four hours but there isn't a setting for that.
I'm running Lion and have IMAP email accounts.
Any idea how I can get Mac Mail not to ignore my Check For New Messages setting?
Thanks!

Thanks for the link. Well I never would have found that out without some help. I saw the IDLE in the IMAP settings I didn't know it was a kind of PUSH / FETCH thing. Anyway I've got it on manual now and only seems to get emails when I send one or press the button. I've only changed it a little while ago so I hope this is actually fixed.
Thanks again it was driving me nuts!

No prompt to update when Flash Player Settings Manager is set to check for updates automatically

My understading of http://forums.adobe.com/message/3562892#3562892 (March 2011) is that when an outdated version of the Player is used on Windows, the prompt to update should occur after the next restart of the operating system.
So, when http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ in Safari for Windows shows an outdated version 10.x of the Player:
I restart Windows
I log on
I wait a few minutes.
Problem
Usually, no matter how long I wait, there is no prompt to update; Flash Player Settings Manager continues to show an outdated plug-in alongside a greater version of the ActiveX item.
I see this problem with multiple computers running Windows XP and Windows 7.
Any suggestions?

Flash Player checks for updates every 7 days. The NCP doesn’t change this. Where the user in that post is getting confused is that only after Flash Player detected an update (on average 3.5 days after a new version is released), the dialog will appear after a restart.
