Need help organizing mail

How do I keep each mail under one heading? For example, I have a back and forth conversation with John Smith and I would like all of our emails in one email. Also why am I not receiving junk mail?
Thanks

why am I not receiving junk mail?
I don't know, but if you post your email address here I am sure you can get some if you want it.

Need help organizing photos

I need help organizing my photos. Over the years, my Mac has collected photos in many different locations, many different folders, both on the internal and an external hard drive. What I need is the best and easiest software for: 1) searching multiple hard drives to find all photo (and video) files; 2) identifying and removing all duplicates; and 3) putting all photo and video files into a single organized folder in a location that I specify. There are lots of products out there, but I can't seem to be able to figure out which one is the best, and which one will do exactly what I need it to do. Any suggestions from the community?

Import the photos into iPhoto and use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to find and eliminate duplicates

I desperately need help with Mail, specifically sending

For Starters: I am on OSX 10.9.2 and am trying to use mail 7.2.
https://discussions.apple.com/post!input.jspa?container=2998&containerType=14&qu estion=I+desperately+need+help+with+Mail%2C+specifically+sending
I cannot send. I have been at this for hours and hours and hours. Here are the details.
my mail server however is s1.sistercompany.net
I can receive email just fine. I can also send mail just find having set this up on my iphone and also in thunderbird (which i hate hate hate hate hate hate hate, which is why I am desperate to set up mail)
The settings in thunderbird are as follows:
Servername: s1.sistercompany.net
port: 465
Authentication method: normal password
Connection Security: SSL/TLS
However, I just can't get this to work in Mail. When I write an email and hit send I get a popup that says:
Cannot send message using the server s1.sistercompany.net
The certifcate for this server is invalid.
Now, my tech guy says yeah the certifacte is invalid because you are going through sistercompany server, there should be some way to just accept the certifcate anyway (but he has never used mail before).
So I have serached around and come up with this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11706
Which tells me to use the verify certificate dialogue, which I would do except there is no verify certificate dialog. Any thoughts?

Most of the time I'd suspect one of 2 other things...
orange.fr has changed their authentication without telling their users.
Malformed eMails clogging up both ways.
So anyway, did Connection Doctor say it connected or not? What was exact error if there were some?
Can you login to their Webmail in a Btowser?

I need help with Mail

I recently erased my HD and reinstalled Yosemite. I wanted to manually move my saved emails over so I researched and it said to go to library/Mail/V2 and copy everything in there from the old system and paste it into the new system. I did this but got this message...
I don't know what this means. I should have gone online and asked, but tried to fix it myself. I thought if I deleted the gmail accounts and re-entered them it would fix it. When I opened Mail preferences, choose one of the two accounts and hit the "-" button, it gave me a message saying they couldn't be deleted and to do it from the system preferences, so I did that. Now Internet accounts in system preferences shows them as gone, but they are still in the Mail.app. I tried deleting them again from Mail preferences and it won't let me. I then tried to go re-add them to the system preferences and it will add a google account but says there is an error. I am fearful that I have really screwed my computer up. Please help! How do I add them back to my system preferences without errors and what do I do about the above pic of the message that keeps popping up in Mail? How can I delete the gmail accounts if I need to if Mail won't let me. I also haven't gotten a single new email in any of my accounts, including my iCloud and comcast ones since I did this all. What should I do?

Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
          8.8.8.8
          8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

Need help migrating Mail/iCal/Address data from 10.3 to 10.7

Hi, I'm helping a relative migrate from an 8-year old iMac (10.3.9) to a new one running Lion. Mostly it's going to be a clean sweep app-wise, but we need to move iCal, Mail and Address Book data across. Of course, these apps have changed a fair bit in across the last 4 'full' versions of OS X, and the folder structures within the user library no longer match between machines. Can anyone advise me what to copy and what to junk? I appreciate this is a bit of a vague question, but that's the situation. Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

The webtogo was dropped in 11.x. so the URL has changed. This is one of those situations which needs to be handled by support. Have you filed a request with support yet?
thanks

Need help accessing Mail files after Updgrade to OS X 10.5

I recently did an Erase and Install of my new Leopard OS X. Before doing so, I copied my complete mail file from 10.4 to an external HD.
After installing 10.5, I tried to import the old files from the HD and I get a message that says my Mail file is not compatible with this version of OS X. This is a REALLY big problem because I have 8 years worth of contacts stored in those mail files
I don't know what to do. I have since set-up new mail accounts, so I am using my Mail Program without problems. I need to know how to access my old files. I have tried everything I can think of. Any help would be appreciated.

which Mail file do you mean? the Mail application itself? that was the wrong thing to copy. the application itself contains no user data at all. all your mail data was stored inside your home directory in the folder homedirectory/Library/Mail. if you didn't back up that folder, your Mail data is gone. Your ONLY chance (and it's a small chance) of recovering your Mail data now is to use data rfecovery software like [Data Rescue II|http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php] or [FileSalvage|http://subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=1] and try to restore that Mail folder. You should do this ASAP to decrease the chance that this data will be overwritten.

Need help migrating mail to new machine.....manually

I need to wax my machine and start over. I have tried to use migration assistant but the problem I need to cure comes along too. So we want to just start over. I know how to manually move itunes and iphoto. But what folders have my mail and bookmarks for safari?
Thanks for the help

if you backup the whole ~/Library/Mail/ Folder you'll have everything.
it depends on your email - if they are IMAP then you only need to back up the mailboxes that are stored locally on your mac. If they are POP you'll want everything.
For pop I'd suggest to do a "get mail" and make a new mailboxes (call it INBOX or anything you want) then move all of the inbox content into that mailbox.
I find it less confusing that way and when you setup your email account on your new mac you'll get all the POP emails coming in and they'll be all marked as Unread. But because you've moved all latest e-mails to your newly created INBOX you can safely delete those "unread" emails that comes in when you set up your mail.
hope that helps!

Need help with Mail

Hi:
Need your help with something I don´t understand: we try to set up a new hotmail account in Mail (we have used both Preference Panel and directly in Mail) but it never recieves the Inbox. I can send but don´t see anything in Inbox.
I looked into User/Library/Mail/V2/accountname/INBOX.mbox/ and the folder with the xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx name structure is never created.
I tried to set up another hotmail account and it works ok, only this specific account fails.
I Used a Permissions repair, didn't worked. Erased all data in V2, again not worked. Tried to "cheat" Mail setting up another hotmail account and then changing info to the specific account failing, not luck. Also reset sync services (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627?viewlocale=es_ES), still not work. Rebuild inside Mail also didn´t worked. Any idea to get this account working?
BTW, sorry for my bad english...

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go â¹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Newbie needs help Please - mail problems

Help Needed Please.

Didnt know if i should do a system restore??
Any Genius at there thanks in advance and im sure your all kringing with my lack of mac knowledge
this is the first Mac ive ever brought always been a windows
Mac's the way love it

Somewhere (hopefully) you will have a note of your email user name and password provided by your ISP. It should note the server addresses for ingoing and outgoing servers. If you haven't got these details they are likely available on the FAQs of your ISPs website.
Assuming you are using Apple's Mail app for email the route to adding/editing the relevant data is:
Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab. You then need to add/edit the data under the various tabs. Check that the SMTP server has all the correct details by clicking in the drop-down menu and selecting 'Edit SMTP server list'. Make sure the details are correctly entered.

Oh my goodness......I need help organizing/finding my photos!!!

Man, I have a mess......
About 4-5 months ago I bought a Seagate external hd, and I wanted to back-up ALL of my photos on my Powerbook. I am using iPhoto 6.0.6.
I wiped the new hd and prepared it using the discussion forums here. Everything was cool.
I "decided" to go into my folder on my powerbook and delete/"clean up" some of my photos before I backed it up onto the Seagate. Big mistake. I went into the libraries folder I think and was selecting multiple items at a time and as I was dragging the stuff, I lifted up on the key and dropped them into various places. An example is this when I click on the HD icon and select Pictures. I have all kinds of crap in the wrong places/folders and I cannot remember where and what I did because it's been soo long. Where do I start? The pictures are all there, but they are all over and not organized at all....

I have a mess, and want to consolidate all of my pictures both external and internal into ONE folder, and put them somewhere safe until I get a time capsule in December. I will probably get rid of the Seagate. I have about 200gb available on the Seagate, and only 30gb on the Powerbook.....getting full.....!
I would like to install a "clean" iPhoto onto the Seagate, and get all of my photos into one place on the Seagate. Without going any further, and promising to NEVER do this again, where do I start?
Please help. Many are very important photos of my children, and I wish to back them all up!

I believe you'll have to resort to the following:
1 - search you User folder (type Command+F) with the following criteria:
File type=image
Title includes .jpg
File size is treater than 100 KB.
This should bring up in the search result window all full sized image files.
2 - create a new folder on the desktop and drag these files from the search results window into that folder.
3 - create a new library.
4 - open the iPhoto/Event preferences and check the check box titled "Imported items from Finder" and select the time period you will want to have the photos split into during import, 1 day, 1 week or one of the hourly selections.
5 - drag the folder of image file from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
That will get your image files imported into separate events based on the time frame you selected in the preferences. If you don't all of your photos will end up in one large event. They can be separated later but I believe it would be better to do a preliminary sorting during import.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.
and drag the folder from the desktop into its open window. Yo

Need help with Mail after 10.6.8 update

You can’t use this version of Mail with this version of Mac OS X
You have Mail version 4.5 (1084/1085). It can’t be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Build 10K549). For more information, click the Help button.
OK getting desperate now, I recently updated my 2010 MacBook Pro (Running Snow Leopard) with the latest update, unfortuantly my mail icon was in a sub folder in the applications folder and apparently is the cause of all my problems as it looks like it didnt get the updated?
So I have been scrolling different solutions to try to find some sort of resolution, I have downloaded the Mac os X 10.6.8 update combo v1.1 but that hasnt done anything? I just simply opened it when i downloaded it, was I supposed to do something fancy with it ??
Totally lost as to what to try next anyone out there more computer savy that I am ?

I had the same problem. I did this:
If you installed the Security Update 2012-004, it failed to update Mail to 4.6; thus, your problem. Manually DownLoad it fromhttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586 and reinstall it.
which was posted on another thread here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19718708#19718708
and it worked .
