My Mac Pro stopped getting new emails through the mail app

My Mac pro does not get new E-mail from yahoo, I'm using the Stamp app at the bottom of screen. I can access my E-mail if I go directly through yahoo. Can anyone help.

1. This is the MacBook Pro hardware forums.
2. Post in the Mail & AddressBook forum of the OS you are running (which you don't mention).
3. So for Lion post here:  https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion#/?tagSet=1386

  • For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    It happened w/ my MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon about 5 months ago; tried everything I could think of including multiple downloads of Flash, and hadn't seen any solutions here.  Adobe insisted many times that I download & update, but the newest vers. wouldn't work on the computer.
    On checking Adobe/Flash was reading the computer as being an earlier model. So the new version of Flash wouldn't work w/ it.  Snow Leopard 10.6.8 was being read correctly but not the computer model (can't remember what MP model  it was reading).
    Nothing worked. So -- a very old PC trick: If nothing else works get the hammer out and bludgeon it-- might work. So I reset everything by putting the Snow Leopard  install disk in, held down 'C' on restart and let it run. 
    Didn't take anything off the HDD first, just ran the install disk over everything.
    The experts on the forums are probably cringing right now & I'd like very much for them to jump in. Love to know how my computer model was being mis-read. All I can say is, for the brave and desparate, it worked for me. Something to keep in mind.
    It helped that I had a new computer on order & have 2 backups, one being mandatory. Might work only the one time but worth a check.
    Good luck on working this one out.

  • TS3899 When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address.  This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account.  It is frustrating and poor design.

    When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps on my iPad, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address.  This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account.  It is frustrating and poor design, especially since I had already checked the From: address.

    3rd party email addresses have to be deleted on every synmced mac product, although I have 1and1.co.uk and my imac updatetes the mails in that account from mac mail.
    Yahoo etc is a 2 step deleting process but good to get your emails pushed when on the go.

  • Hi - I cannot upload my emails through the mail icon.  The first time I tried it only loaded very old emails, I then tried the whole process again and it has not imported a single email.  I use hotmail, and have had no problems with my iPhone or iPad.

    Hello, do you mean Download?
    In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
    Then click the Show Details button & Check again.

    The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

    PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox.  Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
    When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions.  It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app.  But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone.  And not in the Deleted box.  Just gone.  Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up.  Please help.
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
    Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
    At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
    Next...
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
    At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
    Select All = command A

    i found out my prob!
    here is what you do.
    go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
    click "software updates".
    click "installed software"
    if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
    go to mail.
    click "mail" at the top.
    click "preferences...".
    find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
    hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
    its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

  • How to enlarge when composing an email within the Mail app?

    How to zoom-in (enlarge, make look bigger) when composing an email in the Mail app?
    I am not interested in changing the resolution (which I am happy with).  For the most part I can just use Command and the "+" key when I cannot see something to enlarge the font, especially that of web pages.  This is also valid for reading incoming emails in the Mail app, too.  However, when I compose emails this functionality does not work.  I know I can actually increase the font but then I have to remember to decrease it before sending it (ridiculous step which one can easily forget about).  I know I can also transfer into Notes or Word but this is just extra unnecessary work.
    Is there a solution to this, so that I can only rely on the Mail application?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Howdy Lavi,
    It sounds as if what you want to do can be accomplished by using the Zoom control, one of the Mac operating system's Accessibility features. Using it you can quickly and easily make content either on the entire screen or just a small window larger and easier to see without affecting how the screen resolution or how the email will look when it is sent. See this article for Accessibility features -
    OS X Mavericks: Use accessibility features
    This article explains how to set up Zoom in System Preferences -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • I can't connect to my gmail or yahoo account through the mail app

    I was able to connect just fine until reset my iphone an hour ago, and was asked to update carrier settings, which I did. Now I can't connect to my gmail or yahoo account through the mail app. Through settings, I deleted my accounts, and set them back up, but still nothing. I can connect by going through safari, but it takes longer, and it's not as user friendly...besides that's waht the mail app is there foer, right? Please help! Thanks

    ...never mind...the problem somehow fixed itself...

  • I deleted my old Email account because I wanted to create a new one, and I did. However, when ever I send an Email from the Mail app on my laptop it says the Email was sent from my old Email and I just can not get rid of it.

    I deleted my old Email and only used my new Email to set up the Mail app on my laptop. And the old Email is completely dead, hotmail.com says the Email no longer excists when I try to sign back in to it however my Emails remain saying 'Sent from Jordan [*old Email*].
    I can't find a solution!!

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • How to limit the number of emails synced through the Mail app?

    The Mail app is syncing all of my emails... even those that are like from than a year ago and older... I don't need them, I'd rather get rid of them and free up some storage space if possible.. The Mail app is currently taking around 5GB of my storage space!!! please help?!

    You can't limit it to the last 50 messages, but you can limit it to the last 1000 messages in each "folder" (label).
    Go to the Gmail website and click on the gear icon to the top-right side.
    Click on Settings.
    Click on the "Forwarding and IMAP/POP" tab across the top of the Settings area.
    Towards the bottom of the IMAP section, change the "Folder Size Limit" setting to "Limit IMAP folders to contain no more than this many messages". By default 1000 is selected, though you can also choose 2000, 5000, or 10000.
    Click Save Changes at the bottom.

  • My rMBP won't fetch emails with the mail app on it's own?

    I have a hotmail and yahoo account synced with the mail app but anytime i get an email, i have to manually fetch to be able to see them. All other notifications such as facebook and twitter fetch automatically and on sync time-wise. Does anyone know why i would be having this problem with mail?

    From the Mail menu bar, select
    Mail ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Advanced
    and check the box marked
    Include when automatically checking for new messages
    Repeat for each account.

  • How do I get consistent notifications from the mail app?

    Hello. Inconsistently have problems with new mail notifications using the mail app. I have it set to alert notifications. I use yahoo mail. When a new mail comes in I hear the "ding" notification sound but that is all that I get. No alert, no banner, nothing in the notification pull down, and nothing in the lock screen. Then I go into the mail app and sure enough there it sits but the only notification I got was the sound. I turn off the phone and back on and it works fine for a very short time and then goes back to the other behavior. Any ideas? Thanks in advance to everyone! Have a great day!

    at this moment, aperture and iphoto are the only methods of viewing photostreams. for mac.
    give apple some feedback on letting iCloud also stream photos to your mailbox.
    I believe this isn't done because anything in your photostream is not counted towards your free 5gb of storage given to you with iCloud. However things in your mailbox for iCloud are.
    Having said that, I believe that this is the reason you're not able to access your photostream in mail at the moment.

  • Cannot send email from the Mail App?

    I've had an izymail subscription for 1 year and just renewed it last week. I could never send an email from my Mail App without a window popping up stating "izymail cannot connect to the server" and the sending bar (along the bottom of the screen) just freezes and will not send.
    I've a Hotmail account linked up to izymail. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

    I fixed my problem - I deleted my email account on my iPhone, then tried to setup a new account. I had a few problems setting it up. It wouldn't recognize the incoming or outgoing servers and I lost my email altogether for a few hours. Then I changed every setting possible and finally figured out that I had 2-3 "Other SMTP Servers" as well as my "Primary Server". Once I deleted the Other SMTP Servers, my email worked and i'm able to send emails now!
    I also think changing the "Server Port" number helped solve my problem also, and making sure "Use SSL" was turned off.

  • TS3274 I recently lost all my notes and my ipad will no longer allow me to connect to my yahoo email via the Mail app. Is there anything i can do?

    I also think it may have to do with the fact that i dropped it...
    When i try to connect to my yahoo email via the Mail thingy, it will say "user name or password for apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com is incorrect even though my yahoo password and user name is correct. I know because if i were to het my username or password wrong, it would tell me "user name or password for *insert my email* is incorrect".

    This is copied from your first post. Am I reading this wrong? Aren't you saying that you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect? That's why I asked another the word apple in the name. I don't use Yahoo mail that may in fact be correct but I'm just checking,
    IF you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect.....
    Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.
