You need to provide more info please. What's the exact error? What email client? Who's the email account through? When the last time your email worked without issue? Do you remember something changing right before it stopped working?

When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly. Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal. In mixed mode it works fine. Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working?

In mixed mode it works fine both placed. Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working? I thought 5.0Ghz was supposed to have a wider range. Do I need to change a setting on the Macbook Pro?
Thanks, W

I'm not sure if you understand that 5 GHz has some upsides, but also some very significant downsides.
The upside is that the 5 GHz signal will allow faster speeds.
The downside is that you must always give up something in order to gain something else.Unfortunately, the marketing hype about 5 GHz does not go into very many details about this.
In the case of 5 GHz, the 5 GHz signals are much weaker than 2.4 GHz signals, so they do not travel as far or penetrate any obstructions like walls or ceilings nearly as well as 2.4 GHz signals. In many cases, in order to get good 5 Ghz performance, you literally have to have almost a line-of-sight relationship between your computer and the wireless router.
If you have a new dual band router, which broadcasts both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simutaneously, your Mac will connect to the best signal quality automatically depending on its location in relation to the router. In the same room, without any obstructions, it will connec to 5 GHz. But, take the laptop down the hall a few rooms and around the corner and the Mac will connect to the 2.4 GHz signal because at that location, the 2.4 GHz signal is not only stronger, it is also faster.

Make a Genius Appointment at the Apple Store, take your laptop in and get them to help you upgrade it.

TS3274 My speaker works fine until I plug in earphones on I pad.I have tried several ear phones, even the pair that came with the unit.

My ipad speakers will work fine until I use ear phone connection. I have tried serveral types of earphones even the set that comes with the Ipad. I was hoping there may be a setting that I do not have turned on or another cable I should try to use

Try this - 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.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1630
http://www.atreks.com/app-no-sound-on-ipad-4-%E2%80%93-what-to-do/
To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings
What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

Shame you had the iPhone hacked as O2 usually unlock their customers iPhones happily.
We cannot discuss your problem as it is in breach of the Ts&Cs you agreed to on registering
However hint ....you have probably trashed it

Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Click Purchases.
If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

MacBook Pro works fine - Powerbook G4 won't backup

I was wondering if someone can help me. My MacBook Pro is fully backed up on the TC and working well with TM. My wife's 12" Powerbook G4 has access to the TC and the internet but every time I try to do her initial back up on the TC her computer eventually freezes.
In addition to that, now when I try to start the intial backup - it says that it is trying to backup 120GB, which is a mystery to me since she only has an 80GB harddrive.
I would be grateful for any help.

Macbook Pro working fine then, after shutting lid, suddenly won't start up

I've been working on my Macbook Pro with no problems. I've been carrying it around with me today, never turning it off but, obviously, closing it. Then plugging in again and continuing with no problems at all. This evening I was working on it, again all fine, when I shut lid whilst it was still on (as I always do) but when I opened it again the screen is black and it won't start up again. It seems like it's trying to start (the light keeps flashing and the fan makes sounds) but then it doesn't start. The power adaptor light is green. I've tried plugging in to different sockets. I've tried starting up without the battery, and also taking the battery out and putting it in again. What could be wrong and what should I do? Really urgently need help!
Many thanks in advance if you're able to help,
Lisa
Ps: I've written that my OS is X10.5 but I can't remember what it is really and because I can't turn my computer on I can't check. It was bought early 2008 and I haven't updated the OS since then...

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Your early 2008 MacBook Pro may have developed this problem:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
You'll need to take it in to an Apple Store to be tested--Apple has a special test they can run to diagnose this problem. If this is what is wrong, you will get a free repair.
Your Mac originally shipped with Leopard, which is 10.5, and if you haven't upgraded the OS, that is what you have.
Good luck!

2010 MacBook pro working fine to extremely slow overnight

My macbook pro has been working great for the 3 years I have had it, never a problem. I open it up yesterday morning and it is now the slowest most frustrating computer I have ever worked with. Every operation takes minutes to perform. From opening a finder window to saving a text document.
Ive checked activity monitor and there doesnt seem to be anything eating my cpu %.
Ive restarted several times (takes about a half hour to do), waited hours and come back and its still the same problem. It doesnt seem to be indexing right now either.
What could have gone wrong? What should I check? How can I fix it?
Thanks!

Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CSeq "I/O error" | tail | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command.
Normally the window will be empty. If you get output like this:
kernel[0] <Debug>: disk0s2: I/O error
the boot drive is failing, or there's some other hardware fault in the storage subsystem.

Just plugged in Time Capsule and one MacBook Pro works fine on WiFi while the other MacBook Pro and iPad 3 keep disconnecting. Any ideas?

Additionally, the wifi icon at the top of the screen has an exclamation mark on the MacBook Pro that doesn't connect. We've tried restarting the machine, the Time Capsule but nothing has helped.

Just called Apple Support and it turns out we had the settings wrong. We're all set now!

HT201343 I have a Late 2011 model 13' Macbook Pro and i purchased Apple TV because it should support Airplay mirroring. It says i should have the airplay icon on my menu bar but it does not appear.

According to the help page i was viewing my Late 2011 13' MacBook Pro should support Airplay Mirroring. However the airplay icon does not appear on my menu bar like i says it should and when i go to System prefereneces>Display nothing appears there about Mirroring as well (like it says it should). The help page specifically says that Late 2011 MacBook Pros should support Mirroring etc...
Any suggestions? I'm all ears...

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Airplay needs 10.8 or later, you need to update your operating system.
