  • Since upgrading firefox my tiscali (through Talk talk) email account will not allow me access to my emails saying 'You have undefined new mails in your inbox' and will not open the page. it works on Internet Explorer.

    It thinks there is no information there! If I revert to 3.6 how long will security be maintained. At the moment I am opening Mozilla for web browsing but IE for my email account. I am not very PC literate so need simple answers.

    Apparently TalkTalk mail will work with Firefox 4 and Firefox 5 ''if'' you set the browser to ''lie'' to TalkTalk mail by saying that you are still using version 3.6.
    You can find the instructions for that in a post on the TalkTalk forums: [http://www.talktalk.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=185113#post2452787 Firefox 4 & TalkTalk webmail - Forums].
    Note: when you open about:config the first time, it will display a warning message that you should be careful with the changes you make. That's definitely good to bear in mind.
    Does it work?

  • We have two email accounts and my wife cannot access hers. Is it due to new software upgrade? Have tried rebooting iPad and switching of and on the wifi!

    We have two email accounts with virginmedia. After a day of intermittent messages yesterday, today my wife's email cannot connect to server. Had no problems before. Tried rebooting iPad and switching off and on the wifi to no effect.

    FYI, this is a user to user technical support forum.
    No one from Apple monitors, reads, or responds here.
    Try the following:
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network settings
    If the Wi-Fi is still not working, basic troubleshooting from the Users Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    The vast majority of users upgrade with absolutely no issues.

  • Mail 5.3.  Forces an email account to be off-line, refuses to download msgs.

    I have 3 email accounts, a personal one, a cloud, and a company one.  I open Mail.  Tell it to take all accounts online.  It does.  I click the icon to tell it to download email msgs.  It puts the little 'offline' symbol by the company account, and proceeds to download everything else.  I click on the offline symbol and it says, "Offline status:  This account (a2q_POP_account) appears to be offline due to a network problem. Do you want to try to go online now?"
    I say yes, go online.  It removes the offline icon indicator.  I tell it to download msgs again, and it switches the account back to offline.
    I have checked the account settings - incoming, outgoing servers, passwords, etc.  so far as I can tell, they are the same as on the laptop (release 6.6).
    My email server account provider (DSL?) passed it off to my internet provider.   My internet provider passed it off to Apple.
    Does any of this make sense?  How can I make my PowerMac's mail work?

    Mail reports the account offline when the Mail Server does not respond. This can be dues to bad password (which is why it tries to ask for a new password) Server too busy, wrong communication ports selected, encryption problems, and many other issues.
    For commercial email, the check for passwords etc can be accomplished by using a web Browser and navigating to the Mail Server directly, and entering your Username and Password to collect your Mail directly (this is referred to as "Web Mail" pickup).
    Often after several cycles of "enter a new password", the password stored on your Mac becomes damaged or gets deleted, and needs to be re-entered in:
    Mail > Preferences > Accounts
    Checking with your company representatives to verify Mail Server credentials such as: POP Vs. IMAP, what ports to be using, whether encryption is supported, and other parameters --  can be useful.
    It is also important to understand that Mail uses TWO Servers -- one for Sending and one for Receiving, and that they have possibly different ports and password.

  • How do I access multiple email accounts

    I just got my Bionic a few days ago and have set up multiple email accounts (work, gmail, yahoo).  When I click the "email" icon only one account appears.  I can't seem to find the inbox, etc for any of the other accounts.  The only time I can find those messages is when a new message comes in and I get notified of it.  Then I can catch the other messages.
    How do I access the inboxes for all the accounts?  This must be obvious but i'm missing it.

    Questions are typically followed by a question mark. My answer answered your question.
    Firefox doesn't do email, so there are no "Firefox email accounts". If you are accessing "email" with Firefox, you are using web mail. Some web mail services don't allow for direct access, they want their users to access their email from a "portal" or "main" page and will re-direct any attempt to load an "internal" web site page back to the main page.
    As far as loading 3 different web mail accounts at the same time, if they are in the same domain it won't work on Firefox without a Firefox addon. http://br.mozdev.org/multifox/
    IOW, if those three email accounts all with Yahoo, without that add-on you would have to logon to each email account separately and log out of the first before logging into the 2nd. Then log out of the 2nd before logging into the 3rd. Firefox isn't capable of having multiple session cookies for simultaneous logon's to the same server. That add-on provides that "multiple sessions cookies" feature.

  • How do I change email account on iTunes set up. I don't have access to  hotmail account  used to set up (got jacked and it's to big of a pia to mess with ). I have had an iPhone for several years

    I'm unable to access the email account attached to my apple account and used to set up ITunes (hotmail account was jacked). How do I change the email account if I can't access the old one?

    Hi,
    Try heading here. Click "Manage your account", login and change your primary email address. You'll then be sent a confirmation email to your new primary address that will ask you to verify it as your own. Click the link, log in, and you're done.
    I hope you find this useful,

  • Changed my email account to my new account now all of my old purchases are gone

    Changed apple id from my original yahoo account to my new gmail now all of the songs I purchased with the yahoo email account are gone in itunes. Also the artwork on every one of my purchased songs from the yahoo account is gone, but the songs remain on both my ipad and ipod.
    Tried to redownload everything, but itunes says that I have already downloaded all of my purchases. Thing is that I can't see any of the old songs to delete and redownload. This has also translated to all of my app purchases too.    Help...

    go into settings>app store
    and re-sign in

  • Original email account

    I cannot access my original email account I used to setup ICloud.
    I changed my Apple ID in iTunes, leaving all my $ info exactly the same.
    My iPhone and iPad does not allow the new username/password, and continues to ask for the old one. Since that email account is gone, the system will not let me in.
    Crap!!!!
    iCloud is saying I need to delete the old account and put in the new. Sure.  But it also says it will delete all my photos, and that I cannot do.
    help?

    Log in at http://appleid.apple.com and update your email address. You will still use the same AppleID, just with a different email address attached to it.
    Do not create a new AppleID or iCloud account if you don't want to abandon all your existing content and purchases.

  • Text messages and email accounts disappeared after...

    Hi,
    I just made a backup via OVI Suite and now all my text messages and email accounts are gone. When trying to restore it skips the messages and marks them with an exclamation point inside a red triangle.
    Where did my messages and email accounts go? How will I be able to get them back?
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Marc

    Text messages should be saved for as long as you save them. Email will be saved for the length of time you chose when you setup your mail account.

  • Outlook email account disappeared after restarting

    Today my husband shutdown and restarted his Mac Pro as it was running slow and he hadn't turned it off for a few days. When he reopened Microsoft Outlook the entire email account was gone. He tried going back into Time Capsule to last night but nothing would work and then all the other Office programs disappeared. Apple support could only help so much, then they said to ring Microsoft. No help there, they put us onto Log Me In Rescue support and we have paid for them to try and fix it but they are having no luck at all.
    They said our system has been hacked which we didn't think could happen on a Mac. We only had POP emails set up not exchange. Can anyone offer any support at all.
    Cheers in advance

    I went back to him and this morning we had checked in the identities folder as you suggested and there was nothing in there. Checking again tonight there are files in there, but what we do with them we don't know. It could be from when to remote help people were reinstalling tonight.
    What we have just discovered, and this was not there this morning, he went into Finder and All my files. It breaks things into different sections. There was a section saying Mail and messages and there are over 13,000 items in there and all his contacts are now there. We are not sure how they got there or how to get it back to Outlook. He went to do the rebuild but there are two identity options, and we are worried about making a mistake. Not sure what is going on.
    I have spent so much time in these forums and others trying to help and I am a person that is shocking with computers. I thank you for your help so far. Still playing with it and I booked him a session at the apple store tomorrow as well.
    I just have to say how appreciative I am of the time you have given in trying to suggest solutions to our problem. There are so many people that just won't help.
    Cheers,

  • How do I change my email account password in Thunderbird?

    I changed my password on my Comcast email account, and now I cannot access my email using Firefox. There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about passwords anywhere on your support site. I've looked in every single menu item, and there is NOTHING to do with passwords. Help. Help me, please.

    All the articles recommended seem to use the old Firefox menu system. I solved my problem, but I'm not really sure how. I did find the saved passwords by clicking the "display menu" icon (three horizontal bars) in the upper right, and then choosing Options...->Options...->Security->Passwords->Saved Passwords->Show Passwords. Then the next time I tried to check my mail, I was prompted for the password, and checked the "remember password" box. Everything works fine now.

  • Blackberry OS6 Update: Email Account Management Error

    Hi
    I've just updated my Blackberry Curve 9300 (on Orange UK) to Blackberry OS 6.0.0.570. When I try to use email account management the device requests me to download an update. There are several prompts asking to replace an existing file which require an 'OK" response or the update won't progress and the email account management is unusable. 
    After the update completes and the device reboots it hangs on the loading screen - I've left this for well over 15 minutes to be sure but nothing happens. Battery pull and soft reset lead to the same result. I'm able to get out of the problem and restore the device and I have backups but I'm stuck without the email account management option. 
    Any ideas? Any help greatly appreciated!
    Thanks
