No signal being sent from the base stn.

Good day all...
Just got the Airport Extreme and hooked it up to my imac & it worked great. But once I wanted to name the network & try to secure it, the base station shut down. Infact, the lights still indicate network traffic into the unit but i am getting no signal at all on my comp. I have set this up before at work & no problem. I have tried to reset the base by pressing the reset button for 5sec but still no signal.
Any suggestions???
iMac G5 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

I assume you have an Airport Extreme Base Station with firmware 5.5.1 or later since you only held the reset for 5 seconds according to these instructions:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451
If you were not up to that firmware then a 10 second reset is necessary. Are you connecting wirelessly to the iMac? Try connecting with an ethernet cable to configure it first.

  • Replying to all emails are always sent from the '1st' listed email

    Whenever I reply to an emails, choosing 'reply to all', I then change the 'from' address from specifically list my hotmail.com email account, when the emails get to the recipients, it always shows as being sent from the 1st listed email address configured on the iphone (in my case it is my gmail.com email.
    Someone sends me an email to my hotmail.com account. I click 'reply to all', or even 'forward', then click send, the email is received from my gmail.com email account. (I do not have anything setup between my hotmail/gmail accounts for the other (i.e. different 'reply to' addresses, etc..) on my iphone, nor within the actual email addresses either.
    Even if I change the 'from' address to specifically say from my hotmail.com account, it always comes as showing from my gmail.com address.
    This only occurs on my iphone. It does not occur when sending emails from outlook, nor hotmail's web-interface, so it must be an issue with the iphone configuration.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • Why is mail being sent from wrong account

    I am trying to send mail from a specific account, however even though it is showing as the correct account when it is received it is from my partners account.  I have followed the @mail@ set up and checked everything - which appears to be ok - but it is still wrong somewhere.  HELP please.

    I am having this same issue.  I have several accounts (all .live) which I use for my various different jobs.  Frequently now I am sending a mail, or replying to a mail, and it is being received from the wrong account.
    - I check the account at the top of the mail that I am sending is correct.
    - the mail listed in my 'Sent' folder shows as being sent from the correct account.
    - When a client replies to my mail, the reply comes to an incorrect account, and on their email the heading for my original mail shows the incorrect email address & name.
    - the email accounts seem to be random - not always the same incorrect one is used.

  • Can we change the font in the email that is being sent from SAP ?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where in we need to change the font for the contents in the mail being generated from SAP.
    I am using the FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 to send my mail.And the contents are just appened to an internal table as text elements.
    Can we change the font in the email that is being sent from SAP  to Arial 10points?

    E-mails generated with that function module are created in plain text format.  The font that would appear when reading the e-mail would be dependt on the user's setting for the e-mail application (e.g. Outlook).
    To my knowledge, the font cannot be affected during it's creation.
    Hope this sheds some light on your issue.

  • I have 3 email accounts in Mail on Macbook Pro.  Mail is only being sent from 1 account.

    I have 3 email accounts in Mail.  Mail is only being sent from 1 account, even though I select one of the other accounts in the "from" field.  In my sent box, the "From" field says the accout I selected, but all recipients say they receive it from a different account.  I set my composing preferences "send new messages from" to the main account, but all my mail is still being sent from a different account.  I cannot see that this is happening, only people receiving it can.  I noticed it because when they reply, it goes to a different account than what I sent to them.  Any suggestions with what I should do?

    Thank you!  Funny.  I had just found that answer eleswhere:  http://simonwheatley.co.uk/2013/02/apple-mail-sending-email-from-the-wrong-accou nt/

  • Re-sent Sent Email In Outlook 2010 Showing as Being Sent to the Previous Recipient

    When re-sending a previously sent item from within Outlook 2010, after a few seconds, the newly re-sent email is showing as being sent to the last recipient who the email is sent to. For example;
    I send an email to [email protected] I then want to send the email to [email protected].. so I click Sent Items, double click the email I have just sent, on the Message tab in the Move group, I click Actions and then click Resend This Message.
    I remove the original recipient and add the new recipient and click Send.
    I check my sent items a few seconds later and the newly sent email ([email protected]) is showing as being sent to [email protected] However, the re-sent email has actually be sent to the correct recipient. 
    I would appreciate any advice on this. 

    Hi,
    I assume this issue is related to the corrupted nickname cache. Does this issue occur with certain recipients? If so, I suggest you remove the nickname cache entries of these recipients:
    Open a new email message.
    Type the first few characters of the nickname cache entry that you want to remove from the cache.
    When the entry appears in the list of suggested names, move your mouse pointer over the name until it becomes highlighted, but do not click the name.
    When the “X” icon appears next to the highlighted name, click X to remove the name from the list.
    If this happens to all recipients, we can consider to reset the whole Outlook nickname cache for Outlook 2010:
    Open Outlook 2010.
    On the File tab, click Options. 
    Click the Mail tab. 
    Under Send Messages, click Empty Auto-Complete List.
    Click Yes.
    I hope the information is helpful to you.

  • My mac has started sending yahoo emails out as if they were being sent from an old gmail account I haven't used in years. Why has this just started happening?

    My mac has started sending yahoo emails out as if they were being sent from an old gmail account I haven't used in years. Why has this just started happening? 

    It is important to understand that Mail uses TWO servers, a Receiving Server and a Sending Server.
    When you create a new mail message, or reply to a message, the Sender server is shown in the message composition window like this:
    That drop-down window allows you to select which of the Sending Servers you previously set up should be used.
    In general, once you choose a Sending server, its choice will "stick" for all future replies to messages from that Receiving mailbox.

  • Mail only being sent from NON-default account

    I have two email accounts set up on my iPhone. One is a POP account - work email hosted by Earthlink; the second is a personal email account on Gmail. For months I've been able to send email from either account. The POP/work email account is designated as the 'Default' account.
    Recently though, when I am in my POP/work email account and I reply to a recently received email in that account, I am able to reply to the email but the recipient receives my reply from my Gmail/personal email account. Again, this a reply I've sent while in my POP/work email account, AND my POP/work email account is even set as the 'Default' email account. Yet, replies are being sent from my Gmail/personal email account.
    The same thing happens when I draft new emails (not replying to message from someone else) - when I draft them from my POP/work account, they are received by intended recipient but show that they came from my Gmail/personal account and therefore all replies to my emails are sent to my Gmail/personal account.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    You are undisputedly THE Man/Woman! Essentially you solved it for me. Following your tip, I checked the SMTP settings of my work email account on my iPhone and somehow (don't know how) they had gotten deleted. In turn, somehow, that was having all mail go through the remaining functioning out-bound mail on my iPhone which was through my Gmail account. In some ways that is weird, but not a bad resilient capability by the iPhone to still send the mail using the other email account info.
    Thanks again. I really appreciate you taking the time to post your thoughts. And I REALLY appreciate you being correct!
    Best,
    Tom

  • Outgoing emails are not being sent from my email address all of a sudden. It started happening when I changed my gmail password

    After I changed my gmail password my outgoing emails are no longer being sent from my gmail account, but are being sent from my spouse's account so that replies go into her inbox, not mine. 

    rigoran1231,
    You may have a corrupt preference, in order to correct this open Mail - Preferences - Accounts and re-input all the preferences for the account. While they may look ok one or more may be corrupt.

  • When replying an email from my icloud alias, it's being sent from primary account

    Hi everybody
    I have experienced a little problem which is that when I'm replying to an e-mail from my iphone using my icloud alias, my reply is being sent from my primary e-mail and not from my alias as it should be sent.
    That's happening only when I reply from the iphone, not when using webmail icloud.com.
    Has anybody experienced the same issue ever?
    Thanks

    It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
              Mail ▹ Preferences...
    The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
              Send new messages from:
    choose
              Account of selected mailbox
    Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
    If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
    In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
              Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
    If there's only one server in the menu, select
              Edit SMTP Server List...
    and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
    Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
              Card ▹ Make This My Card
    from the menu bar.

  • My iMessages are being sent from my gmail and not my phone

    I recently had to deal with major software corruption on my phone and ended up having to completely wipe out my phone and start over by manually downloading all my apps and restoring from iCloud. People who are texting me with iMessage are saying my texts are coming from my gmail account instead of my phone. Sometimes it switches and some people say they have 2 different conversations going on with me, one from my phone and one from my gmail account. I don't want this to happen! Sometimes my texts are popping up on my iPad and I also don't want this to happen because my iPad is a work iPad and I don't want my personal texts appearing on my work iPad. I'm thinking that somehow the 2 have become linked since wiping out my phone and I'd like that to stop happening. I also want to figure out why my texts are sometimes being sent from my phone and sometimes from gmail. Any help?

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the article below and making sure that your phone number is selected under the "Start new messages from:" section. This wont change any of the conversations that have already been started from you email address, but it will ensure that new conversations are coming from you phone number.

  • Spam being sent from my Mail account...

    I am receiving e-mails in my Mail account saying that certain messages can not be sent and the message gives the reason but they are being sent by other names, not my own, using my e-mail address. I went and changed my password in icloud.com but the very next day, the same thing happened. How can I get this to stop. Messages being sent from my e-mail account by others that are not me?

    Yes, I read in another post that if it was actually sent from my account, I would see the e-mails in my Sent folder which I do not and that someone just forged where the e-mails were sent from and there is nothing that can be done about that except to bacically ignore them. There are not too many of them anyways.
    Thank you for your answer.

  • HT4519 Default email is set but emails are being sent from another account

    I have set up my email accounts on my iPad and set the default email as my home email. I have just noticed that all emails sent from my iPad are being sent from a different account.  What am I missing?

    Edit the address book entry to uncheck use display names. If you want to disable it completely Tools menu (Alt+T) > options > advanced >reading and Display and turn off the use of display names.
    You never had this issue with Outlook.... The question is what did the recipient see, not what did you see. If they did not use Outlook there is a good chance they saw what was in their address book. You can address your mail as sent by "Very Important person from Very Profitable Company" If I add you to my address book as "The Goblin" I see "The Goblin" This is because Thunderbird places control in the hands of the user. Outlook does not. Note the Multiple ways to view a message body on the view menu.
    I get your frustration, but your no longer using Outlook. Outlook is an excellent exchange client. I find it actually does email badly.
