Please Help - Mail Application Erased

I am trying to move all of my info from Entourage to Mac Mail because I just bought an iphone. Somehow my Mac mail application has been erased. I don't have an original system boot disk. How can I replace the mail application? I am running 10.4.11 on a Powerbook G4 laptop. Thanks!

Please help! I erased my Macbook Pro on Find My Mac.

Hello, I purchased a refurbished Macbook Pro in December 2012. Fast forward to September 2013, my hard drive crashed (lost everything) and was forced to bring it to the store to replace the hard drive. Picked up my laptop this last Saturday and it was in brand new factory condition (had to set it up like the first time). As I am setting up my Macbook on my Find My Phone app on my phone, I was a bit confused because the pre-hard drive crash Macbook was under my list of devices and I chose to Erase it because I thought I was removing it from the list (very stupid). Well apparently, pre-hard drive crash Macbook and new hard drive Macbook turns out to be the same one and I completely erased all factory settings from my laptop. Since I was sans laptop for 2 weeks at the Apple Store, I decided to re-install the Mountain Lion as per the instructions of start up since I did not have anything saved other than a couple of profile settings, etc. Once installed, everything seemed fine, but when I come to use it today, I am missing a ton of applications that originally came with my Macbook, iPhoto, Garageband to name a few. I need help as I do not want to pay for all these apps that came with my laptop originally, btw they cost $14.99+. Also, my flash player doesn't work, I can't view an online PDF menu for a restaurant for example. I have a scheduled appointment at the Genius Bar this week, but I am afraid how long that is going to take. Please help!! Thanks

The genius bar appointment is the easy way to get things restored. You can try yourself by opening the App Store, sign in by clicking Store on the menu bar, and the select Prurchases. See if your iLife applications show up. If they do, download each of them.

PLEASE HELP MAIL KEEPS CRASHING!!!!

For some reason my mail keeps crashing. Whenever I try to do anything with my junk mail, the program crashes. If I mark an email as junk it crashes. If I try to move an email out of my junk mail it crashes. Can someone please please please help me out? I've tried to reset my junk mail settings and it still crashes....
Thanks
Joe

Are you really using Mac OS X 10.4.2, as your profile indicates?
There is probably some corruption in one or more of the files used by the junk filter. The following procedure thoroughly gets rid of all those files, so that Mail creates them anew:
1. Quit Mail if it's running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash. This file stores information about what does and doesn't constitute junk, and is what allows the junk filter to learn. Clicking the Reset button in Preferences > Junk Mail also deletes LSMMap2. The file was called just LSMMap in early versions of Mail, delete that as well if you see it.
4. Locate DefaultCounts and move it to the Trash. This file keeps statistics about the number of messages that have been marked as junk, either automatically by the junk filter or manually by the user.
5. Locate MessageRules.plist and move it to the Desktop. This is where Mail 2.x stores all rules, including those used by the junk filter. If there is a file called MessageRules.plist.backup, move it to the Desktop too. You may also see MessageSorting.plist files there; this is where Mail 1.x stored the rules, and they are no longer used by Mail 2.x, so just move them to the Trash if you see them.
6. Look for the account folders. The name of each account folder starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. Open each of the account folders, locate the Junk.mbox or Junk.imapmbox folder within it, and move it to the Trash if present.
7. Go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Locate any Junk.mbox folders there (their name may include the account name in parenthesis), and move them to the Trash.
Note: Messages in Junk folders with an .mbox suffix are stored locally, and will be lost forever as a result of doing steps 6 and 7. If there is a chance that you have legit messages there and you want to preserve them, move them to another mailbox in Mail first. If you cannot do that for some reason, move the folder to the Desktop (to be imported later), instead of to the Trash. Messages in Junk folders with an .imapmbox suffix are stored on the server and can be deleted blindly (Mail will rebuild those mailboxes automatically).
8. Open Mail. As a result of removing the rules file, the junk filter will be disabled now. You may want to either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down the Internet connection before opening Mail, to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled again.
9. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
10. Go online again if you went offline in step 8.
If the above solves the problem and you don't have any rules you'd like to preserve or recreating them is not a daunting task, just delete the MessageRules.plist files that were moved to the Desktop and be done with it.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

Please Help, Several Applications Won't Open!

I'm not sure if this is the right thread for this. Please point me in the right direction if it isn't. I just did a software update. The current "internet security update" was, I believe, one of installs (I wish I paid more attention). Now, I have several internet related applications that won't work. Safari, my browser of choice, won't open (I'm doing this on Firefox). My email app, Eudora, won't open. Quicktime won't open. I just tried reinstalling both Safari and Eudora. Both still won't open. I haven't done anything with Quicktime yet. Just checked other applications (RealPlayer, Windows Media Player). Neither will open. Is there a conflict somewhere? How can I resolve this? Please help!
Thank you.
FYI: I have a Titanium G4 550MHz PowerBook running OS 10.4.10.

As others have noted, get a bootable, external HD, and make a bootable backup/clone before updating. That allows you to revert to the previous good state without having to reinstall everything.
These should get you pointed in the right direction:

You may have some success with the software mentioned in this post.

Other than that, if the songs are not backed up anywhere else, you're out of luck.

Need Help - Mail Application Folder Issues

I have 2 mail accounts. One is an exchange account, another is a standard hosted mail service with IMAP interface.
Both are setup as IMAP (Exchange option didn't show all folders, so I had to use IMAP for Exchange.)
The mail application just plain doesn't work for any folder management, on either account.
If I move messages, it's not moved on the server. If I send a message, it isn't stored in the Sent folders.
Most of the time, it doesn't put the mail anywhere. When I send mail messages, it creates a Sent items folder under the drafts folder.
The IMAP prefixes are correct, and I can see all folders. The Folder behaviors are set to the proper server side folders.
I've restored, rebooted, etc.
Any other suggestions?

There are no synchronize options on the PC mail apps, they are live clients. Outlook for work, OWA for my personal account.
This problem is happening with two accounts. One personal exchange, and one externally hosted (not exchange, actually webmail.us) for our company.
I am the Senior Software Architect/Engineer for the IT department and I have spoken with webmail.us as well as our infrastructure group and am very familiar with Exchange.
All issues and troubleshooting steps so far point to the need to troubleshoot the client application itself on the iPhone, especially since other IMAP clients have no issue using the exact same settings.
As a matter of fact, everything works 100% fine from the OSX mail client using IMAP for the exact same accounts with the exact same settings on my MacBook ultimate.
It makes a copy of a moved message in the proper folder, and leaves the original in the inbox. This is how the iPhone client should work, right?

3)reload firmware
4)reboot

Thanks ever so much!! So I suppose I did not screw it up for good? Just need to find a friend who uses Xp. and do it on their computer. I suppose thats the only way.
All the best,

** please help - mail view issue **

ok, this is driving me nuts and i dont know how i did it.... the view on my mail changed while i was navigating through emails one day. Originally, it had the mail displayed On My Mac with all of my folders underneath it. NOW all of a sudden it is showing On My Mac (aka Mail) AND my mac email address where all of my folders are located...
does this make sense? Its a small issue but so annoying. I want to go back to the view it was at originally, pulling everything off of my .mac mail account and showing it as my only MAIL account on the computer.
Please let me know if you can tell me what i did, i've looked everywhere. Thks.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Here’s an explanation of how mailboxes are supposed to appear in Mail that I’ve posted in other cases. I believe that #10 is the only paragraph below that doesn’t apply to you, so you may want to read the rest and post back with any further questions you may have:
1. Instead of grouping mailboxes by account, Mail groups mailboxes by purpose first, regardless of whether they are stored locally or on the server, then groups by account the mailboxes that don’t serve a specific purpose in Mail. If you have more than one mail account, each has its own Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes, which appear under the respective group showing the account name instead of the real name of the associated mailbox in the filesystem.
This has the advantage of letting you choose at any time, and independently for each mailbox, whether you want to look at your Inbox, Sent, Trash, etc. mailboxes as if you had just one of them shared by all accounts (i.e. an aggregate), or look at each of the corresponding individual mailboxes separately.
2. Each mailbox under a pre-defined group is associated with a mailbox in the filesystem whose name may or may not be exactly the same as the name of the corresponding mailbox group. By default, the name of the actual mailboxes in the filesystem associated with Sent and Trash, for example, would be Sent Messages and Deleted Messages, respectively.
3. The association between a mailbox in a pre-defined group and the actual mailbox in the filesystem is fixed for POP accounts, but can be changed for IMAP accounts by means of Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For or the corresponding Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors > Store messages on the server setting.
4. Mail may defer the creation of a pre-defined mailbox until actually needed to store messages there. Also, in some circumstances Mail may be unable to create or locate the actual mailbox in the filesystem (see #10 below for an example), but the association does still exist in those cases from a logical point of view, even though Mail may be unable to display or store messages there.
5. Each and every mailbox appears once and only once in the mailbox list, be it (1) under one of the pre-defined groups with an icon that conveys its purpose and the name of the account it belongs to (if you have more than one mail account), or (2) with a generic folder icon and the real name of the associated mailbox in the filesystem if it serves no specific purpose as far as Mail goes. Under no circumstances can the same mailbox appear both ways; it’s either one or the other, depending solely on whether it serves a specific purpose in Mail or it’s treated by Mail as a generic mailbox like any other.
6. By itself, the name of the mailbox is no indication of whether it serves a purpose in Mail. If it appears in Mail with a generic folder icon, then as far as Mail goes it’s a generic mailbox like any other, no matter what its name.
7. For IMAP accounts, a mailbox with a generic folder icon can “disappear” and become associated with one of the pre-defined groups as a result of changing the corresponding Store messages on the server setting in Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors or doing Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For on it (server-stored mailboxes only). This, in turn, would cause the mailbox being previously used for that purpose to become dissociated from the corresponding group and “appear” as a mailbox with a generic folder icon.
8. In addition to the account-specific mailboxes that appear with the account name under each of the pre-defined groups, Trash and Junk may also have an “On My Mac” mailbox. This is where messages deleted or marked as junk are moved if they were previously stored in a custom “On My Mac” mailbox or in a locally stored mailbox associated with an IMAP account (i.e. a mailbox for which Store messages on the server has been turned OFF in Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors).
9. Generic mailboxes that don’t serve a specific purpose as far as Mail goes (i.e. mailboxes that appear in Mail with a generic folder icon), appear below the pre-defined groups. In principle, “On My Mac” mailboxes (i.e. locally stored custom mailboxes) would appear as top-level folders, whereas server-stored mailboxes would appear grouped under a globe icon for each IMAP or .Mac account. However, if there is no need to differentiate between “On My Mac” and server-stored mailboxes (e.g. because you only have one IMAP account and no custom “On My Mac” mailboxes), Mail will display the server-stored mailboxes as top-level folders instead, just as if they were “On My Mac” mailboxes.
Note: In Mail 1.x, generic mailboxes always appeared grouped, never as top level folders. “On My Mac” mailboxes, in particular, appeared under their own On My Mac group. In Mail 2.x, this changed to offer greater flexibility in how the user wants his/her custom mailboxes to be organized — see Mail Help’s “My mailbox organization was lost after upgrading Mac OS X” article. This allows the user to have multiple top-level “On My Mac” hierarchies, for example.
10. Some IMAP accounts use a NAMESPACE feature that Mail doesn’t handle properly and that causes server-stored mailboxes to appear as subfolders of the account’s Inbox, even though they really aren’t — see “Can't create folders, only subfolders of INBOX” in the Courier FAQ, for example. Those IMAP accounts require INBOX to be typed in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > IMAP Path Prefix for Mail to handle them properly.

Please Help - Mail 4.3 will receive fine but not send

Everything is the same; my computer has been working totally fine for over a year. All the settings are just as they were...But for the last week it keeps coming up with this message: "Cannot send message using the smtp.live.com" Sometimes it would do this then work again straight away.
I'm in the process of updating to OS X10.6.6 to see if that helps, but don't have enough internet credit so have to use it at work at lunch times.
I can go thru the hotmail webpage and get my mail that way, also my iphone is sending and receiving fine too. But I prefer my Mac!! Any suggestions? Normally I can find answers to my problems straight away with just a quick search but I'm totally stuck on this one
I've tried - deleting all info & re entering it
-someone suggested an outgoing server of smtp.hotmail.com
-setting outgoing server to "none" which for some reason used to work
I'm wondering if hotmail is causing it to stuff up, so I have to go thru their site, thus see their advertising, they get money etc?
thanks in advance!!

This message would indicate that you have this SMTP set up without Authentication, which if that is the case it is also likely getting presented on Port 25, which most connection providers block.
Change the SMTP to Password authentication, SSL, and change to Use Custom Port and enter 587 -- this prevents Mail for some temporary issue changing to use another of the default ports.
Let me know if this solves.

Please help - mail wont stop pushing

I've read several places that to save battery life, disable push.
Well I have disabled push. My yahoo mail is set to fetch, 30 min. Also advanced is set to fetch. And the push "slider" is off.
However, I still get mail pushed down within minutes.
I want to maximize battery and don't feel the need to have it pushed right away. 30 min would be fine.
I've looked allover and cannot find resolution. Can someone clear this up for me?
Thank you.

I understand, however it does it even while the mail app is not open.
I've heard some apps say running in the background. Is it possible its leaving the program open? If so, would that cause it?
I dont think so because just because its open (if it even is) then why would it constantly fetch?
Either way, push IS off, and I get email instantly. I have set to 30 and 60 min with no change.
Thanks

Please Help: Session context sharing between wars in same app

I'm using iplanet iAS6.0 SP1.
I have to share a session among 6 wars inside my application.
I have tested individual wars and they work fine. Now during integration
i find that session is not being shared.
in my application descriptor i have included all the wars and I have
used the same context-root name for all war entries.
On of the wars is a login.war and it sets some user previlages info into
session which has to be shared among all wars.
I'm not able to get it working.
My settings in each war for session info go like this,
<session-info>
<impl>distributed</impl>
<dsync-type>dsync-distributed</dsync-type>
<timeout-type>last-access</timeout-type>
<secure>false</secure>
<domain></domain>
<path></path>
<scope></scope>
</session-info>
I'm stuck here. Documentation says on making session distributed and
setting dsync-type to distributed should work.
What else should be done in SP1.
Is it a must to move to SP2 to solve this. And even in SP2 is it
straight forward?

Thanks-- that wasn't exactly the solution, since the dates and times are correct and IP addresses on both machinges should have been handled by DHCP, but you solved my problem by reminding me that there is a TCP/IP extension, which I looked at and saw that TCP/IP was turned off. I turned it on, and now everything is as it was an hour ago. So thank you!
