Multiple email accounts in Thunderbird, but email always sent out from just one no matter which i use - how do I stop that?

I have multiple email accounts on TB. however, whenever I send an email from any of the other accounts, when the email arrives it shows as having been sent from the email account I first set up on TB. even if i am replying to an email received, the reply shows from the original account instead of the one I actually send it from. I REALLY need to fix this fast!!

You have to set the return address to a different one from the first one (since that will usually be the default) if that is what you want. You can set the identity information from Account Settings > [account name] > Manage Identities button.

Click on the arrow next to the number of emails in the conversation. That'll show you each separate email. You can create a new mailbox (call it what you want) and drag that email out of the conversation into that mailbox.

Check you haven't been infected by a Botnet:
Simply put, a bot – which is short for robot – is an automated computer program that allows outside sources to control computers remotely without the users' knowledge. A botnet is a network of hundreds or thousands of computers infected with botnet malware that communicates covertly with a command-and-control (CnC) server run by a type of cybercriminal called a botmaster. Unbeknownst to the individual users, their computers are linked in a rogue network which the botmaster can utilize for a variety of nefarious purposes.

For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem. How do I stop that from happening?

For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem. How do I stop that from happening? I keep having to delete my library!

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

I have multiple imap accounts on thunderbird, but the last two accounts will not show messages in the inbox.

I have 7 imap accounts some with several subscribed folders. One is a gmail account. The others are from a personal .com. Everything works fine, including the gmail, except the last two accounts added will not sync the inboxes. The sent boxes sync fine, but I see no messages in the inboxes of just the last two accounts added. I know the imap server is working properly as the messages received to these accounts can be viewed via webmail, and the inboxes sync just fine on my email on my phone. I have been over and over all the settings from account to account. What am I missing. Please help.
Thank you.

I have multiple devices among several different family members. I have one iCloud account, I guess that seems to send messages, notifications, game requests meant to me but each device receives it. How can I fix this?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you still know the ID and password, you can change your email address.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.

My adobe account was hacked and compromised, emails were sent out on one of my accounts. I changed my adobe password, when I scan my computer, some adobe files are password protected and can not be scanned, is this normal?

I have contacted them, but apart from letting them look at it and deal with it, is there anything I can personally do myself? Or is it just a matter of waiting for me now?

To check if you have a virus, you can download ClamXav
also, go to Applications>Utilities>Activity Monitor and see if there's anything that you don't recognize, and check your sent email to see if you've been sending emails without your knowledge.

Why would you delete your iCloud account for a password change with your Yahoo account?
Regardless, if no problem re-creating your iCloud account on your iPad, contact Yahoo technical support.

How do I set MacMail to always send out from the same account?

I have multiple email accounts for my business but have them set to forward to my iCloud address (because I also have an iPad and cannot get my business mail on that unless it's forwarded). When I reply to business messages I always want to use the business address and only occasionally want to use the iCloud address. Without changing the send out address EVERYTIME, which is what I'm doing now, is there a way to configure MacMail so that it will ALWAYS send out from my business address unless I specify otherwise?
I looked at Help and it says that you can set that preference in Composing, but it doesn't seem to work.

.mac/mobileme/iCloud is only one of many options you can use for Mail.
In fact iCloud is shifting to mostly 10.7.2 or later only which your G5 does not support.
To determine if you can still use iCloud for Mail, read this tip.
POP account simply are either pop.mac.com, mail.mac.com, or mail.mobileme.com, or mail.me.com or pop.me.com.
smtp is the send mail server alone. And issues with sending mail to a non-internet juice provider typically happen if your internet juice provider blocks any sendmail servers that aren't authenticated. To solve that problem you need password authentication, and either a port 587, 2626, or 2662 with a username of your e-mail address, and password used for checking mail, and the sendmail server of your choice that knows of your e-mail address in your mail settings.
Using POP is great if you want to store your mail only on your machine. Otherwise it is better to use IMAP which stores on the server, and lets you copy information up to your machine as you desire.

I had to create a new Apple ID but it won't let me update apps because my old account keeps showing up how do I stop that

Apps are always associated with the AppleID that purchased them, you cannot use another AppleID with them,
So in order to update them you must use the credentials that were used to purchase them.
You can chnge the details (Name and Primary email) for an AppleID instead of creating a new one.

Spam emails sent out from my mac/hotmail

Ok. I never had this problem in my 15 years as an email user.
Two weeks ago, spam mails have been sent out from my hotmail account to my contacts. I have changed my password, did the malware scan and removed anything it was flagged.
It has been quiet since then. However, as I logged on today, I noticed 41 mails in my junk folder, labeled as 'Mail System Error - Returned Mail' with the content on some kind of Wal-Mart contest.
Also, I have found one email with the following content:(I have replaced the part where my email was with '(my email was here)'
Any suggestions?? This is driving me crazy!

The way many viruses work on a Windows machine is once it's on there it will mine the address book for e-mail addresses and send out copies of itself using addresses that it finds. So there's nothing you can do on your end. Unless you find all those spam e-mails in your Sent box they weren't sent by you but by somebody with a Windows machine who received an e-mail from you and got a virus.
The address "mta02.xtra.co.nz" shows it was sent from New Zealand. Are you in New Zealand?

Yes, change the password - however, the problem is that the email addresses have already been stolen, so the damage is already done.
In fact, I had a similar problem with my Yahoo account; so, for now, I've actually taken most close friends' addresses off (deleted them); not sure that that will help either, but at least they won't be able to steal them in the future.
