Solved!

Hello ike71. Yes you have the correct outgoing server and port information.
Just wanted to clarify if the camera itself is operational and the issue you're experiencing is solely with the email alerts or if you also need assistance getting the camera fully connected.

Not getting e-mails from wireless cam in Windows 8 Mail App

Please forgive me if this is not being asked in the correct forum. I could not find another place that seemed to fit. Feel free to move it if necessary.
I have two Linksys Wireless IP Cameras. Both are configured to detection motion and send an e-mail with 5 pictures to my Live.com e-mail address.
This configuration has been working for over 1 year and works. To verify, I get e-mails from the both cameras when I use Internet Explorer and login to http:// mail.live.com with my live.com (aka Hotmail) email account.
I upgraded to Windows 8, logged on the very first time with my Microsoft Live account. From all appearances, it looks like the Windows 8 Mail App was configured to use my live.com e-mail account. There are message there that I see when I login via
Internet Explorer.
The problem is, I never ever get any of the emails that were sent from my Wireless Cameras in the Windows 8 Mail app.
If I sign in to my live.com email account via Internet Explorer those messages are there. As a test, while I was looking at one of my emails via Internet Explorer, I forwarded it to myself. That message with pictures and all did arrive in the Windows
8 Mail app.
So, does anyone have any ideas why the Windows 8 Mail app does not get the e-mails sent from my Wireless Cameras?
Thanks,
Erik

Normally I do use IE to check my email. I want to use the new stuff. Note that the camera is stand alone and not connected to any computers. It is a wireless IP camera and is configured to send e-mail when it detects motion. Linksys
has told me that in general, the camera is compatible with Windows 8 but there are no drivers to plug it in directly to a computer with Window 8.
You stated that you suspect that the mail app does not support the function. I'm not sure what you mean by that. It is a mail application and should present me with any incoming e-mails to my account regardless of where they come from.
I know that the camera is working because I can see the message via IE in Windows 8 and in the Mail App on my Windows Phone 7.
So, if the Windows 8 Mail app does not support the function, why I can view one of the e-mails from my camera using IE in Windows 8 and then forward it to myself at the same e-mail address and then the forwarded message arrives with all the pictures
attached and is viewable in Windows 8 mail app.
I have also setup my camera to send e-mail to my work account. At work we have Exchange and I use Outlook 2010. I get the messages from the camera in that program without any problems.
I also get the message using the Windows Phone 7 Mail App.
I just can't understand why the Windows 8 mail app is ignoring or blocking message that are coming from my cameras.

Rebates from Verizon Wireless-I got mine!

I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for more than 6 years. I received my rebate card in the mail today. I have to say that Matt at the Spokane Valley Mall Verizon Store was EXCELLENT in helping me get the new phone I needed and set me up with all the accessories necessary in this day and age. He also gave me the paperwork that I had to send in for the rebate cared. All I did was make sure it was coming to me....and put it in the mail. It only took 3 weeks! I activated my rebate card and signed it and am ready to go! I am very Happy with Verizon Wireless.

In case it might help, here's the actual language in the email from Verizon Wireless:
Lower Your Bill by $10 per Month
Not quite ready to upgrade? No problem. Keep your current phone and we'll lower your bill by $10 every month until you're ready to upgrade or renew your service agreement.

Foscam wireless ip camera

I have a Foscam FI8918 wireless ip camera. I have a new airport extreme base station. The camera was previously set up on a linksys router and I had dyndns host a static ip so I could access the camera from the internet. Since installing the new Airpprt extreme I have been unable to set this camera up. Please give me instructions on how to do this exclusively with my iMac. I have the ip camera tool on my iMac and can see the camera when plugged into the Airport extreme via ethernet cable. I am, however, unable to see the camera via wifi after following the instructions. I did spend around 5hrs setting this camera up with a pc running windows xp and the linksys router. The airport utility and airport extreme are just a bit different and I am just learning how to use them. Any hel would be greatly appreciated.

Note: I am assuming that your wireless camera is accessible via a web browser on the local network.
Start the AirPort Utility > Select the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn).
Select Manual Setup.
Verify that Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address is selected on the Internet > Internet Connection tab.
Select Advanced, and then, select the Port Mapping tab.
Click the plus sign to add a new port mapping.
For Service, leave the default; this will change to "Custom" once you start entering port values.
In the Public UDP Port(s) and Public TCP Port(s) boxes, type in a 4-digit port number (e.g., 8888) that you choose. In the Private IP Address box, type the internal IP address of your camera. In the Private UDP Port(s) and Private TCP Port(s) boxes, enter the appropriate port values that should have been provided to you by the camera manufacturer. Click Continue.
In the Description box, type a descriptive name like "Internet Camera Access," and then, click Done.
Click on Update.
To connect to the shared Camera from a remote location using a Mac or PC:
Start your favorite web browser.
Enter the dyndns-provided Domain Name, followed by a colon and the Public port number that you choose in step 7 of the previous procedure. For example: http://www.mydyndnsdomainname.com:8888

Emails from camera roll saved to wrong folder -- IMAP Path Prefix Problem

I think there's a problem with the behaviour of the way picture emails are saved when you have an IMAP Path Prefix.
I have an IMAP Path Prefix of "INBOX"... i.e. my sent folder is Inbox/Sent. Any plaintext emails I send from the email application from the iPhone are correctly saved to that folder and I can see them in that folder immediately via the iPhone's interface.
When I navigate to the camera roll or photo album and send a picture email to somebody, and use the iPhone to go view the sent folder, they never appear in the sent folder. For a while I thought they weren't being saved at all, but I just discovered from my home PC that the camera roll app is indeed saving them somewhere: in Inbox/Inbox/Sent.
That's right--I now have a new Inbox folder inside my Inbox folder, with just a Drafts and Sent folder. Drafts is Empty, Sent has all the picture emails I've ever sent with the iPhone.
Bug? I think so... Emails emanating from the camera app are taking the IMAP Path Prefix twice instead of once, and then creating that Path Prefix folder if it doesn't already exist.
Anybody else with an IMAP Path Prefix experiencing this with picture emails from the camera roll?
Thanks,
Andi
Windows XP Pro

Ahhh interesting to find someone else with the same problem! It definitely happens when you send a photo message. My mac mail it shows my Inbox with a new nested sent items folder. I am using fusemail and the iPhone seriously messes with the folder structure. All sent items folders vanished for some reason on the mail server (but not in mac mail oddly) and I had to call technical support to make them reappear. I think this happened when I altered the Settings, Mail, Advanced settings, Mail box behaviour folders after having this problem with sent photo messages.
Now fusemail's webserver shows TWO Inboxes, one nested inside the other, and a "Sent Items" folder within the "new" inboxes.
Totally strange. I think there is a bug or two in the iPhone's IMAP software. Hoping for a bug fix soon, but until then perhaps a good work around might be to set the iPhone to store sent messages locally?

I attempted to email a picture from my iPad Camera. The system locked up. Has anyone had this experience and if so how was it cleared? And when cleared how can I send a pic without locking it up again? Thank you

See above re lock up email when sending pic from carera on iPad.
TX

I'm sure others will disagree with this, but rather than email directly from the camera app, email the photo from the Camera Roll album in the Photos app. When you snap the photo - the picture is saved in the Photos app. You should be able to email directly from the camera app, but if it causes problems, try emailing from the Photos app.
There are any number of reasons why the app may have locked up. Unless you can recreate the issue and can pin it down step by step, there is no definitive way to track down the cause.

Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

You might be able to set up the SMTP server settings in Mail to authenticate with a password. That may get the email through.
In Mail Preferences, Accounts, select the account.
Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu and select Edit SMTP Server List
Select the Server and then click the Advanced tab at the bottom.
Select Password authentication and add your details.
You might also want to set a custom port (even if it is one of the defaults)
This solution is normally for an email provider that will not let you send outside of your ISP network, which most prevent. They also must support password authentication of the SMTP server.

It did not come from Apple. Do not click on the link and do not supply your password. It is a scam. You can report the phishing email to Apple here:

Once you have done so, delete it.

Hi khaledyr,
yes it's possible, but the effort to realize it depends on the camera model. Do you already know the camera type you will use for it?

Set up a Foscam wireless webcam through BaseStation 7.71 inside and outside of my home network.

I bought a X10 wireless Security Camera last year and it took me months to figure out how to set it up to access the video both inside my home and through my iPhone remotely, even on my Mac at my office. I thought I would provide my process of getting this done to help those trying something similar. Yes the X10 camera works as a Foscam Camera. I am very happy with the result. The biggest challenge was Port Forwarding the Apple Basestation but now that I figured it out, it is easy.
"How I set up a Foscam wireless webcam through Apple Hardware and software to work inside and outside of my home network seemlessly."
What you need:
-Foscam or compatible camera, (iPad or iPhone or Mac or better all three)!
-Service Provider Router.
-Apple Base Station, Extreme or Express. 7.71
-'ip scanner' (software for Mac, app for iPad/iPhone.
-CCTV Camera pros port scanner app for iPhone.
First REMOTE ACCESS
Go to www.dyndns.org and set up an account. For about $20/yr you can have 30 host websites. Write down the user name and password as you will need it later.
You need this service to have a stable website to see your camera outside your network later as 'ip' addresses can change but this site will remain stable.
Then after you log back in, create a 'host website' from the menu. When you are creating the host site, dyndns will give you lots of web address choices or you can create your own. Just pick one. Also, you will need the 'ip' of the server where the camera will be. Luckily the dyndns website tells you this, just select it. Write down the web address, click create and you are done this part.
Next you need to set up the camera.
CAMERA SET UP
Using an Ethernet cable, connect your Apple Base Station to your web cam.
You will need to run 'ip scanner' to see the 'ip' address for the web cam. Write down the 'ip'. Select it, then select "open device in". Pick browser.
A web page will be launched and you are given 3 choices. I picked the middle, 'push browser'. You are then asked for the user name and password for the camera. By default the user is 'administrator' and there is no password. Just click log in. You now will see a menu along the left, at the bottom it should say 'device management'. Select that. Another page will show and there are several important things to do here.
1. Alias - give a name to the camera.
2. Set the time from a server.
3. Users - set a user and password. Write this down as you will need it.
4. Basic network. Either check to 'Obtain IP from DHCP Server' or specify an IP you want to stay the same. You need the subnet and main DNS server and the Gateway (same thing like 192.168.0.?or 10.0.0.? or 172.16.0.?)
Decide on a port you want use. Write this down. The camera will reboot, you will need to log in. In the browser enter IP then : the port#. Like 192.168.0.?:80 you will need the camera user name and password.
5. Wireless-scan for the nearby network list. Pick your network, enter your password, click submit. It will reboot.
6. UPnP-check to use.
7. DDNS Service (this allows remote viewing) pick DynDns.org
Enter your DynDns user name and password.
Enter the long DynDns Host website you wrote down. Click Submit. It will reboot.
APPLE Basestation set up
Run Airport Utility on Mac or iPad or iPhone.
Tap basestation, tap edit, tap advanced, tap Port Settings, tap 'new entry', in description enter a name, enter HTTP port number you picked when setting up the camera in all 4 spots: public and private UDP and TCP. Enter the IP address you picked in the camera setup. Click done and again until the Basestation updates.
Run the CCTV app, pick 'tools', pick 'Port forwarding Checker'. Enter the port you selected to see if it shows open then you are good. If not go back through the steps.
Set up Foscam App on the iPad and iPhone.
Run App, tap Add Camera,
Label- enter a name
User- Camera user name
Password- Camera
Local camera address-the IP address eg 192.168.0.?
Port- the one you specified.
If it connects you will see the chain turn green.
Remote address- the long one from DynDns.
Port- the one you specified.
If it connects you will see the chain turn green.
Tap done.
If everything is entered correctly it will all work.
Trouble shooting, make sure the IP address for the camera is listed correctly in the Apple Router. If it changes on the network, just go into the Airport Utility and update that. Also make sure the dyndns address is correctly listed in the Camera set up.
If questions, just let me know.

Ok.. you have to work out the way you are going to access the TC..
There are basically three methods..
1. Direct access using AFP.. you need a static public IP and the TC as the main internet router.. then you need to turn on internet access and password the hard disk. The college has to have port 548 open.
If you do not have a static public IP then you can use ddns service but there is no client in the TC.. so you will have to figure out a way to update the service.
2. Use BTMM with icloud. This is the Apple method. It actually uses vpn..(the vpn is locked to apple use only but it is not available to end user).. The requirements are 7.6.1 firmware and lion or ML on a Mac computer. I am not sure of the ports because the link to the Apple cloud is separate from the vpn to your home system.
3. VPN.. that means you need to bridge the TC and use a decent quality vpn modem / router or combo thereof.
VPN are not for the faint of heart.. it can take a lot of work to get running but offers the best security.. you will need to change the network equipment in your house more than likely.. using a pc / mac as a vpn server is possible.. but messy.
There are also easy ways to at least access the home computer.. teamviewer for example. This is likely blocked by the college though.
Double NAT is where you put a router on a private IP behind another router on a private IP.. that makes port forwarding close to impossible.
