Notes app not recognising mail account with notes (SL upgrade to ML)

I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion but all my notes disappeared. I researched this online and realised that now Notes is a separate app. I looked in it but the notes are not there.
I researched futher online and it appears that the email account setup in system preferences needs to have the notes box ticked. I checked this but there is not a note box against the email address. see screen capture below.
this is a POP mail account and presumably the account that all my notes are associated with.
I found the notes.mbox file in my SL backup and imported this into email so I have a copy of the notes but I can't edit any of them.
Any ideas - what I need to do to resolve this.
thanks.

I resolved this by
Deleting all copies of com.apple.notes apart from the help files.
Repairing the disk permissions
switching on notes on my iphone and in mail accounts
restarted macbook
launched mail app
launched notes app.
This brought in all my notes which are synced with my iphone.
This was a combination of several different solutions from different posts on this forum.

  • When opening my Outlook 2010 with new added e-mail account with Exchange Server, I have to click manually on my standard e-mail account for checking mail

    When opening my Outlook 2010 with new added e-mail account with Exchange Server supplied by my employer, I have to click manually on my standard e-mail account for checking mail. Do I have to upgrade my Microsoft Office 2010 or how can I make my Outlook
    2010 check all my four e-mail accounts without manually click on my accounts?
    Sincerely
    Ketil Hothorp

    Hello Ketil,
    Good Day...
    Seems to be the Issue is Syncing emails, now I would recommend you to Remove and Add the Account and try and check if the emails are getting synced automatically.
    Hope this is with Single User. If it is with Multiple Users then we need to check the permissions assigned.

  • I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    Set up an additional user account and use one for work and one for personal stuff - each will have a separate address book. Turn on fast user switching for easy switching between the two.

    how do i turn off apps running in the background with the new upgrade?

    They changed it a bit, but you can still close apps. Double click the Home button to pull up the currently running apps. Side scroll over to the app you want to close, then swipe up on the app *window* (not the icon at the bottom).

  • Two mail accounts with same name and SSL not allowed?!

    Dear Common Wisdom:
    I have two accounts in my Mail program with the same web host. That means the outgoing mail server has the same name.
    If I put on SSL, though, it is not allowed to save two servers with the same name in two different accounts.
    Can I get around this and still use SSL for both accounts?
    Thanks!

    Each domain is expected to refer to its own unique database schema. Same SOA schema should not be shared by multiple SOA clusters/domains. It is technically possible though, I suppose, and still can run fine any one SOA environment at any given time with the other SOA environments/domains (sharing the same SOA schema) shutdown. It is not the general/recommended practice to share SOA schema across domains and there could be potential implications and unexpected behavior, particularly when the SOA environments pointing to the same schema are all running at a time.

  • Help With Hooking Up A Google Apps Mail Account With Mail.app v 4.4?

    I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out with this, basically I'm at university, and my university E-mail account is set up through google apps. It looks like this "[email protected]", and I'd like to be able to access this account through Mail.app, but I'm struggling to get the two to play nice, does anyone know what incoming and outcoming settings I need to use to get it to work, or if there's any settings I need to alter in Gmail itself first?
    Thanks a lot in advance for any help anyone can give me.

    Sorry, sorted it, just had to fill it all out like a normal IMAP Gmail account but fill out my entire email address anytime it asked for a username.

  • Checking multiple e-mail accounts with new Mail app?

    Is it possible to check multiple e-mail accounts using the new Mail application?
    I am wondering if I could use it for both a business e-mail account and a personal e-mail account or if I would have to pick only one to use.

    Haha!
    Well, I plan on waiting until the SDK is released before buying any software.
    Since it appears that the system updates included in the App Pack will be required to use any software released thereafter I am fairly confident that at least that part of the App Pack will eventually be free.

  • Unable to add a mail account, with Invalid Password error message, yet can log into mail system OK through a browser. Mail technicians can't find the problem.

    When I try to add a newly-created Bigpond account to Thunderbird, I get an error message "User Name or Password Invalid", yet I can log in to this account OK through a browser. When adding the account, Thunderbird says "Configuration found in Mozilla ISP database". I have previously successfully added Bigpond, Yahoo, Outlook and Hotmail accounts to Thunderbird and they are working fine. The Bigpond Technical Support staff have looked into this and cannot see what is wrong but they say they do not support Thunderbird. Any ideas appreciated...

    Thanks. I had tried the auto and manual setups with the same result. IN addition, the Bigpond Support sent me the following which I also tried and got the same result.
    For the settings that needs to be configured for your new mailbox, kindly follow the steps listed below:
    (**Note: Please be advised that BigPond technical support team is only trained for Microsoft mail clients like Outlook Express, windows Live mail and the like. Having said this, we can only provide limited assistance in setting up your email account for your Thunderbird mail client by providing the correct settings that need to be configured.)
    For IMAP server settings:
    Account Type: IMAP
    Incoming IMAP server: imap-mail.outlook.com
    Incoming IMAP mail: port 993
    Outgoing SMTP server: smtp-mail.outlook.com
    Outgoing SMTP port: 587 (with TLS [preferred] or SSL Encryption depending on your e mail app)
    Incoming uses SSL: On (this is required)
    Outgoing uses SSL: On (this is required) (with TLS [preferred] or SSL Encryption depending on your e mail app)
    Authentication Outgoing server (SMTP) authentication: Same as incoming mail server
    For POP server settings:
    Please be advised that before setting up your email account on an email client using a POP mail server, we will need to ensure first that 'Connecting devices and apps with POP' has been enabled through webmail. For instructions on how to do this, kindly follow the steps below:
    - Log In your email account from the BigPond website from the Webmail section located at the top left side of the BigPond home page (http://media.telstra.com.au/home.html).
    - The page then will automatically redirect to an Outlook website in which you will need to click the 'settings icon' (a gear like icon) located at the top left side of the page.
    - From the drop down list, click on 'Options'.
    - It will then direct the page to a new page where you will need to click 'Connect devices and apps with POP' under the Managing your account section.
    - Choose 'Enable' and choose "Do what the device or app says—if it's set to delete messages, delete them." under Deleting downloaded messages.
    - Click on the 'Save' button to save the changes.
    - Log out of from your webmail page and start setting up your email client on your mail client using the following setting below:
    Account Type: POP3
    Incoming POP server: pop-mail.outlook.com
    Incoming POP mail: port 995
    Outgoing SMTP server: smtp-mail.outlook.com
    Outgoing SMTP port: 587 (with TLS [preferred] or SSL Encryption depending on your e mail app)
    Incoming uses SSL: On (this is required)
    Outgoing uses SSL: On (this is required) (with TLS [preferred] or SSL Encryption depending on your e mail app)
    Authentication Outgoing server (SMTP) authentication: Same as incoming mail server
    In looking at the Thunderbird error message, it seems to consistently refer to the User Name and Password. I know they are correct, as I can log in from a browser using them. Is there something in the validation rules that might be the problem? Also, you may be aware that Bigpond is migrating their old Webmail system across to the Outlook platform. Registering new e-mail accounts in Bigpond get created on the Outlook platform, whereas older accounts are still on the Bigpond Webmail system. Is this causing a problem somewhere in validation?

  • I tried several times to setup a mail account with Thunderbird, but next time I boot the computer and start Thunderbird, no account is shown.

    I bought a new desktop PC with Win 8.1 and installed Firefox and Thunderbird.
    Then, I tried to configure the e-mail account manually (as IMAP) following the instructions provided here: https://support-en.upc-cablecom.ch/app/answers/detail/a_id/22 , but failed to configure the smtp outgoing mail server correctly (I could receive mail, but not send them). Subsequently, I deleted that account. Then, I launched the automatic mail setting tool provided by UPC Cablecom under the link http://www.upc-cablecom.ch/content/dam/www-upc-cablecom-ch/Support/executables/upc-cablecom-email-assistent.exe and it did successfully setup the account, however as a POP3 account. As I was not happy with it, I deleted the POP3 incoming mail server (and lost the received e-mails, of course...) and retried a manual setup. Doing so, I obtained an incoming IMAP mail account plus two outgoing SMTP server (comparing them, I also understood the configuration mistake I had done the first time). I then deleted the manual SMTP server as the automatically setup server worked properly.
    In this context, both receiving and sending e-mail worked OK. However, the next time I started the computer, the e-mail account disappeared and Thunderbird asked me to setup a new account again. I successfully set it up manually one more time, but the same problem surfaced again at the next boot, the e-mail account was gone...!
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Check what profile is being used.

    Your profile folder should open in Windows Explorer. What is the profile location?
    Reboot your computer and repeat the steps above. Has the profile folder changed?

  • How to configure mail accounts with a DualSim Card

    Hi all!
    I have a BB 8520 and a Dual Sim Card (two lines in the same SIM, the work one and the personal one).
    I have a corporate account Lotus Notes mail (with BES server) configured with the work line and i want also to configure my private mail account in my personal line, but when i think it's done, i get no messages in it nor i can send anything. Is it not possible? It is, to configure the work mail in the work line and when i boot my personal line, to receive via BIS my personal mail.
    I need your help.
    Thanks in advance

    You can only have the PIN/IMEI of the device associated with one SIM or BIS/BES account at one time.
    Each time you swap lines you will be required to re-enter/re-register the device with the associated account.
    So, it is possible... I would never want to go through that hassle.

  • Access GW mail account with SOAP?

    I will need to be able to bypass the browser and GW email program in order to access a GW mail account. Is SOAP how I would do this? I really don't know what I'm doing, yet, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    I apologize for not being clear. Hopefully I'll do better this time. I have a forum that sends out email notifications for posts. I'm trying to give the email recipient the ability to reply to the email to a specific email address. It looks like I can change the reply-to header to send the email to the mailbox I want (but I haven't tried it yet) but I will need to know the specific forum topic and post that they are replying to. If I can set that in the x-fields, that would be great. If that's the case then I'll just need to figure that out. Also, the obvious question here is why have a forum if no one is going to visit it because they can just write emails. I don't have much of a say here, I just do what I'm told.
    Thanks and any other insight would be greatly appreciated.
