My e-mail archive somewhere in the system.
Hi,
A few of my incoming mails archive somewhere? After I suspect a missing mail I google the person above my e-mail account and find it.
It then pups up in my e-mail but still can not see where it is archieved? When I click on incoming mails it disappears again somewhere?
I can correspond with a person and then loose recipients answer. Also some new e-mails do the same. Frustrating since I do not know how many e-mails
I loose!
I have goe through all my settings an can not see anything that should be changed.
So far nobody has been able to help to solve the problem. Could this be safari settings problem, or my own settings?
Any idea what it could be?
TQ
Hi Joelira,
For updating applications, if the other AppleID is showing, that means that those apps were purchased under that other ID, and they will be forever tied to that ID - regardless of what ID you have signed on to iTunes & App Store. Any time you try to update those apps, you will have to put in the password for the ID that they were originally purchased under.
For purchasing new Apps, if you have the correct ID signed on under iTunes & Apps option on your iPhone, then it will come up with whatever ID you have signed on under that option whenever you purchase a new App.
Cheers,
GB

System is currently switching between mutliple screens without me touching it. The system has created several new folders. The system is performing as if it is being remotely controlled.
How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

Apple Mail Archive - Best Practices
Dear Fellow Apple Heads:
Does anyone have any best practices to archive mail so that I can backup an mbox file and remove the archived items from current use?Greetings,
There are two ways to do this, but since I don't really use 10.5.x I can't be sure of one of them. In Mail, there should be an option to Archive Mailbox somewhere, but I just don't know because I don't use it. The other way is just to copy the folder of the mailbox you're looking to archive onto your Desktop or wherever you want to save it.
The drawback is that if you want to open these messages again, you can't do it from Mail; you would have to double-click on each one to open it, and the message name doesn't tell you anything about who it's from or what it's about. There's at least one third-party mail archiving solution on the market, but I don't remember the name offhand.
The best option is to always have a current, bootable backup of your entire drive so you can restore your Mac to the way it was before the hard drive failed or that unexpected power outage causes a bunch of files to get corrupted or just disappear. -
recently certain video or pictorial attachments to my e-mails be opened because the system requires the installation of the Adobe Flash player with Java plug-ins. The message also gives a link for installation. It appears to install but nothing really happens. Then the message advises that it will install automatically once security is uninstalled or when Firefox is off. Nothing seems to work. Please help. P.S. I recently also installed the Firefox 4.0 version also

Save it to your Desktop.<br />
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

Somehow I have deleted the system Preferences application. I had already deleted everything from the trash bend before I realized system pref. was deleted. How can I recover or get it downloaded?

Sidney Jean BienvenuHow Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD. However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.)
Click on the "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8. If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9. In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10. If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11. Type in your password, click “OK”
Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12. In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes: Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
Stop
Leave original alone
Update .....
Default selection
Replace .... (Replace option should only be used on full install packages) -
Mail Archiving Issues - The Basics
These are probably simple questions but I can't find any support in the Helps section.
1) If I archive a main mailbox, will all of the sub mailboxes be included in the archive ?
2) Once they are archived is it a good practice to remove the emails from mailboxes once they archived?
3) Is there any connection with the quantity of emails in the mailboxes and the normal speed of the computer? Would massive quantities of emails slow the normal function of the mail program?
4) I use gmail. Is it frequently checking that system for emails and is that slowing my system?
5) What is the relationship (if any) between archived on my laptop and archived at Gmail.
6) When I experimented with archiving it set up various apple archive mboxes. How do I know what has what in them or is it good practice just to make one giant archive mailbox? Is it a good practice to rename archive mailboxes (can it be done)?Let me take a stab as some of these
1. Only if you check the box to include sub folders.
2. Entirely up to you. Most will archive to reduce the amount of mail in their box so you would need to delete what you archive.
3. Not sure. I've heard that there is.
4. I can't imagine that is slows your computer noticeably.
5. None that I know of.
6. Re-import might be the only way to see what is in the mbox file. If you archive by folder then it would help in knowing what each mbox file contains. -
Where has the old mail archive?
I have just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Maverics. I had email archived On my Mac but seem to have lost the mailboxes having updated to Maverics, how can I get them back?
I tried that but I couldn't find the mail boxes, perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place, where does the system put them?

Is Mail.app one of the "erratic" behavior apps with a reset system clock?
I am hoping someone can help with a fine detail of mail.app (v2.1.3) behavior.
I had an incident where an iMac sent out 200+ smtp hits a minute and was tossed of the network for presumed zombie spaming.
I think I have actually tracked the problem to an unfortunate conjunction of circumstances that is actually innocent (if still annoying)
Let me set up the story:
1. This is a common use computer, so Mail is not configured (except that it is --I'll get to that in a moment) and
2. Safari will invoke Mail when you click on an "email link"
Mostly everyone just quits mail if they goof and click an email link.
BUT some time ago at least one person invoked Mail and composed a message. This message, naturally, remained in the outbox ever since. That person learned that they can't send email that way, so ever since they just cmd-Q Mail.
BUT Before this person learned, they walked through the mail-config and told mail to try hitting smtp.mac.com:"nonExistantUser".
So that covers the lead-up. Two days ago, mail was invoked via a Safari link, BUT it wasn't quit, it was sent to the background.
Where it undoubtedly tried to send the outbox repeatedly until it was kicked off the network.
Here is what I don't understand:
Under this scenario of a mis-configured .mac address, will mail repeatedly try and fail to smtp at the maximum possible rate?
OR
Is the one other factor I am about to describe responsible?
The one other factor:
The clock battery is dead and there was a power failure at 4am that day.
The system clock reset to 1969.
Of course, nobody reset it.
Is mail.app one of the apps that the finder message warns "may behave erratically"?
(a GROSS simplification) does it have a bit of code like:
1 check time-of-last-send-mail-attempt
check newest-item-in-outbox
if newest-item more recent then last-send-attempt
do send-mail and record time-of-last-send-mail-attempt
and go to 1
else wait X minutes and go to 1
which, if the clock was mis-set to 1969 would always record a last-send-attempt prior to anything in the outbox and trigger a send loop.
Does anyone know if either Mail is tenacious about sending to a bad .mac address, or gets ridiculous under this circumstance for bad-clock-set?

Error: The e-mail server could not be reached when the system was trying to
Dear All,
I've configured the Mail Transport in Portal successfully with SMTP as MS Exchange Server and Third-party Mailing servers. But due to some licensing issues a new MS Exchange mail server have been setup replacing the existing ones.
And when i configure the Mail Transport in the system i get the below message on the eMail Window:
"Error: The e-mail server could not be reached when the system was trying to send the message!
javax.mail.MessaginException: 530 5.7.1 Client ws not authenticated
I've configured (all the steps) the same way as i used to before and restarted the server as well! Please let me know the issue to be resolved, the telnet to the mailserver is also successful. I've try'd searching SDN, didn't find the exact solution... any notes on this?
Thanks,
MSHi,
It will depend on your infrastructure, I am not sure and have limited knowledge on netowrks, but in my current landscape both the system were in same domain, but still i had to maintain proxy configuration.
Since it giving authentication error, it feel it could be proxy error.
Please refer below links which talks about same error :
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html#smtpauth
Or else i think it is issue with port.

Workflow mails going to all the Users Maintained in the System
Hi Everyone,
I have a Purchase order workflow which gets triggered through ME21, when the PO need to be approved at every level based on the amount of PO , mail need to be sent to set of users.
We have a step in workflow , where we have created a rule and we pass the current level( eg, L1, L2,L3,L4) to the FM and this FM provides the List of Users for that level and the mail need to be sent to them.
I checked the FM that is working fine but when the workflow gets triggered it sends to every user .
Please let me know what possibly has gone wrong.
Regards,
Rajhi,
As suggested, did you check in the rule definition, there is an option called "Terminate if Rule resolution without result" , enable and this should resolve the issue.
Since the task is defined as general task, the work item can be executed by all users. And if the rule fails, the above option is not enabled, hence it sends it to all valid users in the system.
Please try this out.
Best Regards,

I installed the system update to 10.7.3. After re-booting, my mail file was missing from the dock. Looked in applications and the mail application is missing. Any thoughts?
Thanks Paul; but, taking your suggestion didn't solve the problem. As mail is part of the OS, the updates don't have the capacity to reinstall applications; so, I had to reinstall the OS. I now have my mail back (although it didn't appear on the dock--I had to go to applications and activate it and then put it back in the dock. Thanks again for trying.

Outlook 2010 - sending mail with attachment - "The system cannot find the file specified"
Hi forum Fellows,
I have the following failure scenario:
1. A user receives an e-mail with an attachment.
2. The user opens the attachment --> Forwards the mail and writes something in the body of the e-mail
3. For whatever reason the user leaves the e-mail and works on something else --> the user comes back to the e-mail an hour or more later.
4. The user then wants to send the e-mail but gets the following error message: "The system cannot find the file specified"
5. The effect is that the user cannot send the e-mail.....
------------------------------ TROUBLESHOOTING -----------------------
- I can see that when the user opens an attachment this attachment is saved in the OutlookTemp folder. Actually, there is a difference between opening the attachment before or after clicking forward on the e-mail.
---- Before: Two files is written to the OutlookTemp folder. For example if the attachment name is FileX.pdf - there will be a FileX.pdf but also a FileX (2).pdf in the folder (if OutlookTemp is empty/do not contain a file with the name FileX.pdf already)
---- After: Only one file is written to OutlookTemp. That is FileX.pdf
- Running Process Monitor when trying to forward the e-mail I can see that Outlook is calling a file that is not in the OutlookTemp folder anymore.
**** To me this is the heart of the issue. For some reason, when a user has an e-mail with an attachment open for an extended period of time (not sure on exactly how long is necessary), files in the OutlookTemp folder is deleted - files that Outlook is depending
on to be there.
- Going with a totally clean OutlookTemp folder does not help.
------------------ NOW WHAT ---------------
- The question now is: Is this by design? Can it be fixed by some Outlook 2010 patch? Or perhaps a group policy/registry setting as a workaround.
------------------------------ TECH. INFO -----------------------
Outlook 2010 v14.0.7132.5000

Looking forward to hear from you.
Regards The Red Baron
Red BaronHello Red Baron,
Although not a complete answer, the way to treat attachments in emails require some discipline:
1. Never open an attachment directly from the email (and NEVER edit it from there). Always save it in a known location as the desktop or (better) in a designated document folder. Then you can proceed as usual, like editing the contents, printing, forwarding
the new version etc.
2. Directly forwarding the attachment is ok, along with additional text in the body of the email.
3. Having any (unsaved) document open for several hours should
never occur. What if there is a power outage?
Bottom line is thus Discipline. This is regardless of Operating System (which might handle temporary files differently).
These are the rules I teach my customers and they never leave any document unsaved for hours ...

I have Imac (OSX10.6.8) and 6 days of emails that were in my inbox have disappeared. They've also gone from gmail server and my back up hard drive. But if I look at "All Mail" on my Iphone the emails are there!! Have I got settings wrong somewhere?
"One of the benefits of Match, right? Saving hard drive space."
I would not use iTunes Match as a backup. There are too many bugs and I don't think that's what they intended it to be anyway. The main advantage of using it is to make your music available on OTHER devices, not to replace the music on your original computer. -
The system doesn’t recognize or capitalize the word (I) or the first word of every sentence. Another really annoying thing about the integrated mail on your Mac computers is the fact that the system learns the word as you type it more and more instead of highlighting it as incorrectly is this is a word that’s being misspelled. Can Apple fix this bug to make it user friendly as if you were using Office or a Word Document?
You hit the target CT.
It’s only fair that if Apple is going to integrate Mail into Mac PCs, it would be nice if the system does it for you like Office or perhaps Outlook. I just don’t to use Outlook although I have it installed and ready to use, but instead use Mail which comes with Mac OS already.
I hope to make some sense here.
