Mountain Lion 10.8.3 Mail - how to set push mail

Hi again folx.
I have one simple question:
On Mountain Lion 10.8.3 is there any way i can set push mail service on Mail. That means, when i recieve an e-mail, it instantly notifies me. Like on most smartphones. I have tried well known trick of setting it to manual check and few other settings, but thats not working..
Do you have any idea how to do this ?
In settings i can only see "check for new email every minute".
Thanks in advance.

Your email account/provider must support Push.  Not all of them support it by default.  Mail will support Push via the setup wizard choice of Exchange.  So, as an example, if this is a GMail account, reset it up and pick Exchange instead of GMail for the wizard since that's a supported setup path for GMail accounts to enable Push capabilities on it.
Just keep in mind that the protocols used on the Mac to do the Push Exchange Activesync setup is a bit different than those used on iOS devices.  I can't say without a doubt that it is supported on Mail, but I know you can do that setup for GMail on the mail client on an iOS device and it'll enable Push.

    This is not difficult and you will not have to download from the app store.
    your computer has what is called  a recovery partition that came with it.
    simply hold cmd+R while you boot up. let go a second after you hear the chime.
    you will boot into the recovery partition.
    Use disk utlity to format your usb drive and then exit Disk utlity and go to Reinstall Mountain Lion.
    it will ask  you which disk you want to install ML onto. Choose your new USB drive.
    easy peasy

  • I have just purchased os x mountain lion on the app store. how can i see if it is downloading

    I have just purchased os x mountain lion from teh app store. how can i see if it is downloading correctly and how long should it take?

    If you click on Purchases icon in the toolbar you should find it listed with your purchases. There should be a progress bar showing.
    The file is over 4  GBs. How long it takes depends on your internet service speed.

  • Mountain Lion won't allow me to save photos from Mail directly to iPhoto (as you could in all other recent OSX).  Tried opening iPhoto and then click/drag each photo onto iPhoto icon on dock (as Help instructed) but the photo will not drag.  Suggestions?

    I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening.
    Be sure you're holding the correct keys and that you're holding them long enough. Depress them before clicking on iPhoto and don't let go until the menu shows up.
    If you don't want to lose those photos, make a back up now. Hopefully it's not too late.

    Only way is if you made a backup of your system before you installed Mt Lion.
    Or if your system came with Lion Pre-Installed you boot to the online recovery system, Hold down Command+option+r at startup until you see a spinning globe in the center of the screen.

  • I have a canon multifunction printer that used to work with snow leopard but since I updated to mountain lion my printer stop working, How do I make it work again?

    I have a canon multifunction printer that used to work with snow leopard but since I updated to mountain lion it stoped working. How do I make it work again?

    This problem is not unheard of when upgrading from Snow Leopard. It is usually solved by completely deleting the existing printer in System Preferences > Print & Scan, and adding it again.

    Buy Snow Leopard from the online Apple Store - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - and update until you get to 10.6.8. Then, if you're computer is able to run Mountain Lion, you'll be able to purchase ML and install it via the App Store.
    Good luck,

  • Bit by Mountain Lion's Time Machine bug - how to proceed best in the simpler cases?

    My MacBook Air mid-2012 had never been updated to Mavericks.  I had backed it up just a week before a big coffee spill that killed it (June 2014).
    I finally got a replacement never-before-used 2012 Macbook Air running Mountain Lion (great to make the Time Machine restore seamless).
    That's when I tried "Restore from Time Machine" and it showed the "last full backup" as being from June 2013!!!  Then in Migration Assistant, couldn't locate my disk.  I've been bitten by the "Exclusion" bug and my Library/ Applications / System folders have not been backed up since a year ago.  I'm one of the ones that "found out after it was too late." 
    So I'll try the workaround.  Thanks to Pondini for his great website:
    http://pondini.org/TM/D10.html
    http://pondini.org/TM/D10r.html
    My plan is to restore from Time Machine to my 2013 full system.
    Then swap out the Users folder to bring it up to date to the June 2014 version that I have backed up.
    Luckily I have only one user account so this can't get TOO complicated.
    After that, I'll reset Time Machine and check it periodically via the Command-R trick to make sure it's backing everything up fully.
    Still, I'm left with a few questions/concerns that I'm hoping Pondini or others can help to allay before I proceed....
    -What will I have lost in a year from those folders that did not back up?  I know I may have lost non-Mac applications that I downloaded and also any software updates to said applications.  What problems might I encounter in the way of error messages, etc.?  I feel like i don't understand the contents of these folders well enough to realize how in trouble I'm in (or not) regarding these folders being out-of-date by a whole year.
    -Is it really as simple as swapping out the Users folder on the new system with my most recent backup from June 2014?  Any hiccups I should expect from this process?  Will all of my photos go back into iPhoto?  Will all of my mail files go back into the Mail app?  Or in these cases, is there something I need to initiate to smooth out this process?  Photos and Mails are the two big concerns; as for the other stuff, I have yet to find out if it's relevant until a problem occurs.
    -Once I have restored Apps/Systems/Library to the 2013 backup and Users to the 2014 backup, then what?  I'll reset Time Machine but then should I assign it to the new computer?  Should I tell it to inherit the new computer?  Should I wipe it clean and start fresh?  How to proceed after so that I don't have more and more problems down the line, and hopefully don't lose any of the data that I at least have managed to save/restore up to now...
    Thanks in advance for any help and sorry if I'm not more clear; I'm not so technologically literate so I'm not sure how best to phrase these things to get my point across.
    And special shout out to Pondini who made the discovery of this bug a lot easier to stomach thanks to your helpful website.

  • I just upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion......now my e mail isn't working....any suggestions?

    I downloaded/upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion, version 10.8.2, and now I can view any of my emails. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to fix this problem? If so, it will be greatly appreciated!

    Quit Mail.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the text on the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy (command-C) the selected text to the Clipboard. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste (command-V) into the box that opens, then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. If you get a warning that the file is in use when you try to empty the Trash, log out and log back in.
