  • Mail doesn't recognize password after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    After updgrading to Mountain Lion:
    The gmail account in Mail began to ask for its password. it is preseent [in dots]; when i click to continue, dialog box indicates it doesn't recognize it.
    i had time to to go over details in a gmail help page with details (port numbers and other things).
    I decided to start over.
    I deleted the account in Mail, system preferences, Accounts, began anew. Later I deleted inactive Gmail from  menu, Mail. Contacts & Calendars.
    Reading some interventions in Communities mentioned the Key Chain. I had changed the Gmail password while using an older Mac Book. In June i purshased a MacBook Air and had Apple migrate my files from the old to the new mac. Mail had not password problems until I updated to Mountain Lion, which I thoroughly enjoy.
    I'm at my wits end.
    Throughout all this, Mail on my ipodtouch o.k.
    I appreciate help.

    Is it sleeping or shutting down?
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there.

  • Lightroom 4.4 Trial not opening on Mac OS X 10.6.8 - "doesn't recognize disk"

    I'm trying to download a trial version of Lightroom and nothing seems to be working. I have Mac 10.6.8 and apparently LR5 isn't compatible. Adobe support suggested I download LR 4.4, which I did, and tried to open but it is telling me it doesn't recognize the disk and cannot open it.
    Not sure what I can do at this point. I was really hoping I could try this out as I'm trying to expedite my current editing process and was hoping LR was the answer! HELP!

    v2.8 still works on Mountain Lion, you don't have all the latest features, but a better user interface.  At least you will have a working Skype, with audio in preference to video conference calls.
    v2.8 is available from the Skype needs 10.5.8 warning at the top of the Skype Mac download page.  If you want to run both 2.8 & 5 (theoretically you can by putting one of the Skype applications in a separate folder in the Applications folder), however, v2.8 & v5 handle chat/IM data differently, going from v2.8 to v5 will mangle the datestamps on every chat / IM in v2.8. Ideal & faff solution is to have a separate user account on the Mac to preserve chat data....

  • Optical drive doesn't recognize disks since update to 10.4.8

    I've got an iBook G4 that I purchased from MCE Technologies with a slot loading superdrive. Since upgrading to 10.4.8, it won't recognize any disks, whether blank or software disks or DVD movies.
    Anyone else having a similar problem?

    Doesn't apply any more.

  • Firefox doesn't recognize FLASH after update, no matter what. Also says to update plugins but there are none to update listed?

    I have downloaded & re-downloaded FLASH, but after I updated my Firefox to 22.0 it no longer recognizes FLASH is installed on my computer. It also keep telling me "Some plugins required by this page have been blocked for your protection." When I check the plugins, the 3 listed are up to date, and the other 3 are marked "research" - which doesn't allow you to update them. I cannot discern that any of those are what is being blocked. When I click on Details, it brings me to a list of "Modules bloqués" and it's all listed in French...which would be great if spoke French or lived in France, but alas California is in the USA. My Java is updated, enabled & not blocked in any way. My Shockwave Flash is disabled & it will not give me the option to Enable it; I also cannot find a way to reinstall it or find a plugin to help me. !@#$%! So frustrating that this new "update" is useless. I hate 22.0.
    What do I do now?

    Your System Details List shows that some plugins are blocklisted and Flash is included:
    # plugin.blocklisted.flash: True
    # plugin.blocklisted.java: True
    # plugin.blocklisted.nppdf: True
    Which version of the Flash plugin do you have installed if you check that in Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > > Plugins?
    You will have to update Flash to make it work.
    You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page.

  • Officejet Pro 8500a ADF doesn't recognize copy after scanning.

    I'm running Windows 7 Professional with my Officejet Pro 8500a and after scanning documents using the ADF, the ADF won't make copies.  The ADF document states "original loaded", then I hit the copy button it says "starting copy", but doesn't start.  Any help?  So far, the only thing I can do to get the ADF to copy again is to shut the machine down and start again.

  • InDesign6 doesn't recognize plugins after a day of use.

    I am on OS X 7.5. I have reloaded InDesign6 several times. After about a day of use, it no longer recognizes some plugin's. Every time I open it, more are added to the list.

  • Itunes doesn't recognize iphone after last update

    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hello again, GiannisFromAthens.
    At this point, considering that the primary issue is with getting the Windows update resolved, we need to get that taken care of first. To do so you may need to consult Microsoft, or whoever supports the installation of Windows on your computer, for more troubleshooting to resolve it.
    Once that is resolved, if you are still experiencing the issue, you may find better information by using another of Apple's Support resources at https://expresslane.apple.com/GetProductGroupList.action for a more hands on response.
    Cheers,

  • Windows doesn't recognize Iphone after 3.1 upgrade

    Hi everyone,
    I have a iPhone 3g that I upgraded to 3.1 on release date. Since then the phone has worked and synced okay. (except for it occasionally not coming out of sleep mode and I assume that will be fixed in 3.1.1)
    However, my main issue is all of a sudden today when I plugged my iPhone into my computer Windows says that the USB device is not recognized because of a device malfunction.
    I have tried several times after rebooting both iPhone and computer. I have also downloaded iTunes 9 (64-bit ver.) again and reinstalled using the "Repair" option from the iTunes installer. I am running the 64-bit version of Win 7 RC (have not had one issue with Win 7 and iTunes yet so I don't think that is the issue).
    I have read some other posts saying that they did a restore to the iPhone and that fixed some of their issues. I however am unable to do that because Win and iTunes do not recognize that I have the phone plugged in. Also when the phone is plugged into the computer it does still charge and show that it is plugged in.
    The iPhone is not jailbroken. And I used all original cabling for the upgrade etc.

  • Satellite P200-1FC - CD/DVD doesn't read disks

    I have a Satellite P200-1FC and the "TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-L632D ATA Device won't read CDs or DVDs and don't respond. The device manager shows this device is working properly.
    Can you please help?

    Hi!
    Try to remove the CD/DVD drive from device manger and restart the notebook. Does it work?
    If not you should try to remove the upper and lower filters:
    1) Run Regedit (Start -> Run -> Regedit)
    2) Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    3) In the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key, and delete the "LowerFilters" key.
    4) Reboot.

  • PC/Itunes doesn't recognize IPOD after upgrade to newest Itunes version

    Last night I tried to connect my ipod to my new(ish) laptop for the first time. The last time I used Itunes was 03/06. I downloaded Itunes from the website. Installed it. Plugged in my IPOD and it WAS recognized by Itunes and PC. An update automatically came up so I downloaded that and installed it. It said I had to uplug the IPOD from the PC and plug it into the charger to update and install. Did that. Now my PC and Itunes does not see the IPOD. I have literally done EVERY troubleshooting step on the discussions groups and website.

  • FF doesn't recognize printer after installing java

    I am running FF3.6.12 and everything was working. I had to download java so that I could access an online auction and then FF quit recognizing the printer that had been working prior to java. FF tells me I need to load a printer and I follow the screens to load my network printer and when I print the test page it works. I then try to print ion FF and up pops the box telling me I need to load a printer and asking me to go through the same process again......

  • Mail Doesn't Recognize Mailboxes After Migration

    I just migrated all my data from one Mac Mini to a new one (both running 10.9.1).  Everything appears to have migrated properly, and the new machine is a clone of the old - except for Mail.  When I open the Mail app, instead of displaying the various mailboxes of the pre-migrated computer, the app shows no mailboxes and asks me to create a new account - and when I don't, it quits.  I confirmed that all the mailboxes migrated and are in the right place, and all the accounts are active in System Preferences.  It's as if there was a lockfile telling the application to ignore the mailboxes and act as if it were a freshly installed app.
    I suspect I could do it the hard way, recreating accounts and importing mailboxes, but I'd really like to avoid that nightmare.  Any ideas?

    Ernie,
    When I clicked on Connection Doctor, the green light for my 2 sub account and the smtp for all 3 accounts comes on immediately. My main account takes several seconds for the green light. I tried "Try again" a couple of times with the same result. I did find the command, under Mailbox, to bring the accounts online. However, I don't understand why they go offline in the first place.
    Thanks for your help.
