New user of Macbook Pro - Problems sending out emails

Hi, I have just recently bought a macbook pro. I have created my email account. However, when I try to send an email, the message is just stuck in the outbox. What do I do to overcome this problem please?

Hi Ernie,
I found the below information when going to "what are bt yahoo settings". Is this information useful at all?
What are the BT Yahoo! Mail settings?
To use an email program to send and receive BT Yahoo! Mail messages, you must designate a new incoming (POP) mail server and a new outgoing (SMTP) mail server. Outlook Express users can do this automatically by going to My account and clicking on 'Configure my email client settings'.
If your program won't let you add new POP or SMTP servers, you'll need to change your current server settings.
Here are the basic server settings for BT Yahoo! Mail:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server:
mail.btinternet.com
Port (usually specified in 'Advanced settings')
110
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server:
mail.btinternet.com
Port (usually specified in 'Advanced Settings')
25
Account Name/Login Name:
Your email address (including the "@btinternet.com" or "@btopenworld.com" part)
Password:
Your BT Yahoo! password
Please note: if your client does not support SMTP authentication, you will not be able to use it to send your BT Yahoo! Mail messages.

  • New user of Macbook Pro...

    1. How to determine the model & OS?
    2. No sound - when i click 'system preferences' and go to sound, it shows 'selected device has no output control'
    3. How can i maximize the screen?
    4. Is there any commands for 'cut & paste'?
    5. I don't see any CD drive....how does this work?
    6. Any commands to drag, without a mouse?
    7. Is there any website where i can get a free tutorial?
    Can some1 help me?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    1. How to determine the model & OS?
    Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info and look at the System info.
    It will tell you the model ID#, and serial number.
    The serial number has only three important characters, labelled A,B,C below:
    xxABCxxxx
    These are the last digit of the year, and the week of the year it was built.
    Model ID# guide is here:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/by_capability/mac-specs-by-machine-model-machine -id.html
    2. No sound - when i click 'system preferences' and go to sound, it shows 'selected device has no output control'
    Sometimes this can be fixed one of three methods:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300832
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
    If none of the above works, you may have a hardware malfunction in your sound port. Note, if you have something connected to your audio port, it only play out through one output at a time. It does support stereo and 5.1 audio with the appropriate cables.
    3. How can i maximize the screen?
    This can mean two things:
    - You want to maximize the real estate where all the windows belong. This is done by increasing the resolution on Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays.
    - If you mean just enlarge windows, use the green button in the upper left to resize the window so it fits on the screen. Then the bottom right hand corner is used to resize the widnow in question.
    4. Is there any commands for 'cut & paste'?
    Edit menu has those commands. To the right of any command where a cloverleaf icon is represented, the Command key or Apple logo key is used in conjunction with the said key to issue the command.
    5. I don't see any CD drive....how does this work?
    The CD drive is normally below the wristpad on the right side. It is slot loading like that found in some automobile CD players. It supports DVD and CD burning and playback, be careful about the media used:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2446?viewlocale=en_US
    6. Any commands to drag, without a mouse?
    Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Trackpad let you control how you tap two fingers on the trackpad simultaneously to drag.
    7. Is there any website where i can get a free tutorial?
    Select the Happy face on the translucent toolbar. You now will have a menu called Finder at the top of the screen. Use the Help menu to search topics.
    Or post to the relevant OS page, and someone will gladly help you on this board.

  • Problem sending out emails offsite. iPad

    Hi fellow apple users, 
    Could anyone assist?
    I have no problem sending out email when using it at office.
    But when I go offsite to send out email, i was prompted 'Cannot Send Mail'. A copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by server because it does not allow relaying.
    Any good souls out there who can assist?
    Thanks a bunch!

    Hi al,
    Here is a link to a site that explains the whole "relaying" thing. Because there are various reasons you may be getting this message, thought this might be helpful:

  • I have an Ipad 2 and are having problems sending out emails in one of my email address. I always get a message reading the email was not sent because the server does not allow relaying. This is an email account POP3. I have no such problem with gmail.

    I have an Ipad 2 and are having problems sending out emails in one of my email address. This is a POP3 email Account? I always get a message reading that the email was not sent because the server does not allow relaying. I have no such problem with gmail. What could be the problem and how do I resolve this. Is it about settings?
    Richard.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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 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.

  • ITunes won't recognize new Coldplay disc, MacBook Pro spits disc out

    Anybody else? It won't even come up in the finder. It seems like it tries to read it and then it ejects.

    Okay, found out the issue. It's about LAST YEAR's CD, but I can only imagine they made the new one much much worse

    Coldplay Can't Play
    Band's New CD Comes with Onerous Limitations
    By Martin H. Bosworth
    ConsumerAffairs.com
    January 4, 2006
    Pop behemoths Coldplay have scored great success with melancholy hits like "Yellow" and "Shiver." But now the British foursome has something new to sing the blues about -- namely the fact that their newest CD, "X&Y," comes with so many restrictions on its usage as to be, in one irate fan's words, "virtually unplayable."
    Coldplay's label, Capitol Records, has installed extremely restrictive digital rights management (DRM) on the CD.
    Although the disc packaging does clearly state that the CD is copy-protected, the buyer doesn't know exactly what the restrictions are until they've bought the CD and opened it up. Worse, the restrictions prevent the CD from being returned or exchanged unless there is a "manufacturing defect."
    The DRM restrictions prevent the CD from being played in "some" CD players, CD-recordable or rewritable hard drives, DVD players, game consoles such as a Playstation or Xbox, and prevents any attempt to copy the CD or "rip" the tracks to MP3 format. The CD's restrictions also prevent it from being played or copied on Macintosh PCs.
    Capitol is a subsidiary of the EMI Music Group, which clearly has not learned any lessons from Sony BMG and their ongoing fiasco with spyware-infested CD's.
    Sony recently reached a tentative settlement in one of several lawsuits accusing it of surreptitiously installing software on users' computers that can cripple them.
    Although several enterprising listeners have found ways to copy or rip the Coldplay CD to their music libraries, by doing so they can face potential lawsuits, fines, and even imprisonment for violation of copyright. The ongoing battles over copyright protection of music versus the "fair use" doctrine have sparked increasingly hostile moves by record companies and fans alike.
    Artists and bands may suffer in the long term as well, when angry fans choose not to buy their CDs due to the DRM restrictions added by the music labels.
    As one Coldplay fan posting on an Internet forum put it, "The only way you and I can tell the record companies that we don't like the way they're kicking our butts adding this sort of technology' is by returning their crippled discs back to the store, or even better, steer clear of buying them ... I support the artists, it's the record companies that need a wake-up call!"

  • Our Band purchased Logic Pro and it was loaded to one member's Macbook Pro. Unfortunately, he passed away with cancer in May. How can we transfer the ownership and the software (it was downloaded) to a new user's Macbook?

    Hi Kurt,
    The Mac IIci is not even powering on at all. Tried again with wih a tested power cable and no luck. 
    I think it's best that take  this issue to the Older Hardware Community. Not only did I see a fair number of replacement parts for the IIci avaiable online, but there also vintage external floppy drives as well. I'm not giving up.
    Thank you for your time and interest in helping.

  • Are there any new Macbook pro laptops coming out soon?

    Are there any new Macbook pro laptops coming out soon? Because if there are i will wait to buy one.

    There are always new MacBook Pro models coming out soon. However with current 2011 models you can install the faster, Rosetta program loving OS X Snow Leopard with a hack, instead of the new clitchy and unstable OS X Lion.
    So you have a choice now, but for not much longer. If you wait another 6 -8 months, Lion will be stable and more programs will be compatible with it.
    If this is your first Mac, I would wait. If you can do a simple hack with another Snow Leopard Mac, then you can opt to get one now and revert it to Snow Leopard and have a stable machine.
    Else take your chances with Lion.

  • My MacBook Pro is spitting out my DVDs. I tried many discs and they all got spat out. Its an early 2008. The drive is a HL-DT-ST dvdrw GSA-s10n. Do I need a new drive?

    Hi.  Need some help here.  My MacBook Pro is spitting out my DVDs.  I insert them and they knock around awhile making whirring noises, then out they come.  Refuses to play them.  I've tried many.  I have an early 2008 model and the drive is a HL-DT-ST dvdrw GSA-s10n.  Do I need to get a new drive?  Thanks for any help or comments.

    My old Early 2008 MBP used to do that every now and then in the last years of its life. Got a dry-type optical drive cleaner, the kind that is a CD with 4 rows of very fine and soft bristles glued on the "business side". Memorex was the brand I got, good for 20-30 uses.  Ran it thru every time the drive acted up, never failed to restore functionality.
    Of course, the Mac would later go on and blow its logic board. And that was that.

    souvikfromKolkata,
    you’ll know as soon as the rest of us do if Apple decide to produce a new non-Retina model. My guess would be that they won’t do so, but that’s only a guess.
    With Internet, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint representing your main usage, either a MacBook Pro or a MacBook Air would be suitable for you.

    I just wanted to follow this up by saying that you were entirely correct in your diagnosis of the situation.  My computer did have the faulty part you linked to.  I brought my laptop in and specifically told them to run that test, had it fail and then argued with the person at the genius bar and the manager.  Eventually they offered to have it sent out and have everything replaced for free of charge.  They did so mainly because I had complained about graphical issues almost every other time I had come in with problems and no one ran the test.  They should have caught this problem during my warranty, but they didn't, even though I mentioned the problem.
    Anyhow, after having the part replaced, I haven't had my computer crash a single time since, or had many of the issues mentioned above.  I've never had this experience before.  Even brand new, I got occasional crashes.  Hopefully this new trend continues.
    I do find that web browsing is still incredibly slow.  Web browsers just chug along at a slow pace, even though I have great internet speed.  Maybe I'll try just deleting my web browsers and reinstalling them...
    Anyhow, thank you for your help and knowledge Clinton.
