Problem with Mail since I connect my macbook to my Mini with airport

My MacBook was connected to my Mini by Ethernet.
Mail was running perfectly either on my Mini and on my MacBook.
I had to connect my MacBook to my Mini through airport.
I have also checked my security parameters and since then Mail (from MacBook) is not working. All the rest run perfectly, I mean I can connect my MacBook to the web through the Mini, I can also reach my Mini's hard disk from my MacBook....
But Mail connects anymore to .mac
Could anyone help me ?
Thanks in advance.

Ya Buddy...no one can 'feel up the songs'........must be my mistake...
However....I found my solution......I tried restoring my i pod from itunes ....but it didn't work.....so i downloaded 'ipod reset utility'.....and bingo...finaly it is restored!!!!!

...Not alone with problems on "Mail" app server connection, iMap!!!! I believe Apple is strengthening their server farm. Has been out for over a week; they were wise to have the iCloud also in the cloud.

Have you considered the possibility that the third party fan software might itself be implicated in the issue, theosib (or perhaps something else introduced at about that time?).
My inclination in a situation like this would be to back up your drive to an external, wipe the drive, and do a clean installation. At the very least I'd try an archive and install.
Do you have plenty of free space on the drive? Once you get things down below the last 10 to 20% things can get hairy at times, and may not be fixed as a result of simply freeing up some room, as free space fragmentation is likely to have set in.
As far as RAM goes, either "Rember" - http://www.kelleycomputing.net:16080/rember/ or, better still, but less user friendly, "memtest" - http://www.memtestosx.org/ does a much better job of checking your RAM than the AHT. Still takes a while to run for a thorough test, but much quicker than the approach you are planning on using.
You might also want to use "Activity Monitor" to check for any applications with progressive "memory leaks" or that are acting as CPU hogs, given your symptoms

Problem with Airport express N (2nd gen)

Problem with Airport express N (2nd gen)
Firmware 7.6.4
ISP - 20 Mbps ethernet cable
I have MacBook Air 13 mid 2013 os x 10.9.5, ipad 4 ios 8.0.2, ipad4 ios 7.1.2 , iphone 5 ios 7.1.1
When i try to use speedtest.net from my Macbook i got good results of download speed and incredible upload http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3801286946 (connection 300 Mbps) , both ipads got terrible speedtest download result and incredible uploadhttp://www.speedtest.net/my-result/i/981631804 (connection 150 Mbps), iphone 5 got bad download and great uploadhttp://www.speedtest.net/my-result/i/981695357.
All these tests were done near airport express with really good signal and 5ghz. I tried to choose different channels, 802.11 mode, guest ssid, 5ghz ssid ...
I think that something is wrong with my new airport express. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?
ps sorry for my bad english

As a last resort, try a factory default reset on the AirPort Express as follows:
Power off the AirPort Express
Wait a minute
Hold in the reset button first, and keep holding it in for another 8-10 seconds while you simultaneously plug the Express back in to power
Release the reset button after the hold period and allow a full minute for the Express to restart to a slow, blinking amber light status
On an iPhone or iPad home screen....
Tap Settings
Tap WiFi
Look for a heading of Setup a New AirPort Base Station. If it appears.....
Tap on AirPort Express just below the heading to start the configuration process on the Express again
If you try several factory default resets, and the AirPort Express does not appear under the heading of Setup a New AirPort Base Station, the Express most likely is defective and will need to be replaced.

Problems with Airport setup after buying Version 7 models, (older ones will not upgrade)

Problems with Airport setup after buying Version 7 models, (older ones will not upgrade)
I re set up my Airport network , having had 4 expresses for years doing a good job. I bought another and an express, but then a time capsule after my external drive died. .Problems with Airport setup after buying Version 7 models, (older ones will not upgrade)
I moved house and have fibre network so 38mb/s - they all look ok on the utility, but its not till I saw the App version that they are not compatible as mac will not upgrade the version 6 ones, leaving me with 2 disjointed networks and 7 appliances, 4 of the old , 3 of the new.
my new house is expansive so i wanted the extended range and airplay in each room.
This is not told to customers, and utility doesnt show any issues.
I do not seem to get any range from either network now, - and I'm quite experienced with airport (6 yrs of setting up & using & extending)
Any advice ?

why is streaming to my sony TV slowing to .4 mbps from 8.ombps while watching a netflix movie? this has become a problem in the last 2 months. This also happens on another TV but not concurrently.. Is it a problem with "airport extreme" or with the IP service? Airport extreme software is up to date.
please advise

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

CONSTANT problems with Airport Express in two rooms, dropped connection with gateway, no AirPlay

I have 3 Airport Express in my apartment, one is connected (named Living Room) to my ISP provided gateway (router) and acts as the main wireless hub, the other two (named Kitchen and Bedroom) and are set up to provide AirPlay audio only.
The ones set up for AirPlay have had constant issues since we moved to our new place 4 months ago, this is very strange because we were with the same ISP in the old place and used the same gateway (router) without any problems which leads me to think that there is something in the walls in the new place which is blocking an effective signal.
Even as I type this, I have Airport Utility open on my Mac and a message just popped up from AU saying that 'Living Room is unavailable'.
Attached is a screenshot which shows the current status of the Airport network. Basically it is a mess, and I have tried everything, from resetting the ISP router and all the AXPs, to changing the Network Modes to experimenting with repositioning the units to points in rooms where the reception might be better.
NOTHING has made any difference.

Sorry, have been away for work so only just had a chance to look again at this:
I'lll try again: right now using WiFI Explorer I can see 9 other networks, 3 of those are using channel 11, the same as my Airport Express network. (Set to Automatic in Airport Utility)
What I tried to explain earlier was that the one in the kitchen will not stay connected long enough for me to get a reading on WiFi Explorer, but I can tell you that I powered up the one in the bedroom at 19:56, it is currently connected in Extend Wireless Network mode (the one in the kitchen is disconnected from the power) and has an average SNR of 59dB (and shows as 'Excellent' in Airport Utility) and so far it has not dropped the connection, but I am 99% certain that it will be back to blinking amber by tomorrow.
So there is one Airport Express in the living room which is the one that has created the wireless network, within the living room the Average SNR is around 60% (as you would expect as that is the unit that is wired to the ISP provided router).
Since I connected the one in the bedroom earlier this evening it has managed to stay connected and appears to still be extending the network, I checked it just now by standing next to it with WiFi Explorer open on my MacBook Pro and it showed an average SNR of 55%.
I ordered a 10 metre ethernet cable yesterday and I will try relocating the unit that is set to create the wireless network to a place in the living room that is closer to the bedroom and kitchen. It is currently on a shelf on the TV bank which is about two metres away from the wall closest to the kitchen.
I will report back here once I have moved it and set up the kitchen and bedroom boxes again. Hopefully this will allow the kitchen one to stay connected long enough for me to get a reading on WiFi Explorer.

Problem collecting mail since 8th/9th - almost a s...

Is anyone having or aware of any general problems or issues collecting email since about Wednesday night 8th/9th June? -- I use OE.
BT has been my ISP for several years, so I have BT addresses as well as some set up with a former ISP (tesco.net) which are also of course handled via the BT Yahoo account. All are set up correctly (I've checked the settings are in place as they should be, and haven't been varied/altered for any reason), and they've always all worked without any problems at all since joining BT.
But between switching off the system in the early hours of Thursday morning and booting up again later in the day, collecting mail has been a nightmare. At first it seemed as if clicking Send/Receive froze it up, but I realised later on it wasn't actually stalling altogether -- it's just very, VERY slow. For instance it takes the best part of an hour to download one small message of a line or two, maybe about 2kb.
Outgoing SMTP mail for both lots of accounts via mail.btinternet.com is no trouble at all and works completely normally at the usual speed and with no issues. Only incoming mail is affected, but I can't think it's anything to do with the Tesco POP3 address, because it's not only affecting mail on those accounts, but the BT ones as well (mail.btinternet.com again). They're all having the same problem.
Of course I can check both sets of inboxes online for incoming messages, but it's a hassle as I use the various different accounts for different categories of mail, so it's less straightforward than the convenience of a desktop client which I'm so used to, where they come in to one place and I'm able to browse all my mail from there, as well as store it on the system and compose at leisure offline. Online means logging in and out of each one individually. I just hate webmail... call me old-fashioned!
Internet browsing is unaffected, with Firefox (and IE). My BB package renewed at the beginning of the month and I changed from Option 3 to Option 2, but (a) this was about a week before the problem began, and (b) I'm not sure it would have any bearing anyway.
So any general issues anyone's aware of which are going on at the moment, or any ideas?
Many thanks.

I still have this problem. Yesterday I thought it might have sorted itself out, but no such luck. As I have several different email accounts (and they all have the same trouble whether it's a BT address or others from another ISP), I've only been trying to download mail for one account at a time (in turn) with OE, instead of all accounts at once.
Yesterday seemed no different to begin with, than it had been for the previous week -- clicked Receive for one of the accounts, the dialog box showed 3 messages to download, and as usual it was slow, slow, SLOW. The first message took all of about 50-55m to come in, and it was only 4kb! But then suddenly the other 2 following it came in at normal speed in a flash, as they should.
Tried another account where I knew there was mail in (having seen it on the server). They came in normally too. And so did all the rest of the accounts. Brilliant! -- I thought FINALLY, whatever the cause had been, I was through it. And I was thrilled as I'd been able to get all my mail in up to date at one sitting instead of the laborious process of going through each account in turn and having to walk away from the machine between them to do something else.
But a few hours later when I collected again, it was back to ultra-slow again. And today the same.
I've been searching around for some answers without a lot of luck: quite a few seem to report an overall slowness problem, or they're having problems sending mail out, but not so much my situation which only affects incoming mail. As I posted before, I can send normally, and the browser's also unaffected (so it's not the connection) -- it only happens with incoming mail.
Eventually I came across this 2009 page which seems to sum it up exactly:
http://www.nologinspace.com/show item.aspx?itemf=187&title=BT Internet POP Problems and Issues
There's no solution given, but it seems to nail the problem I'm having, and suggests it's some unknown issue to do with BT's POP servers.
Anyone come across this problem, or able to throw any more light on it? Or know what (if anything) can be done?
The only slight difference between their description and me is I don't get a timeout or error message, just sometimes the prompt "Your server has not responded in xxx seconds" and asking if I want to Stop or Wait. If that appears I tell it to wait, as my experience over the last week is the mail does arrive eventually if I wait long enough. Unlike them I haven't been deleting mail off the server either (except any spam), for the same reason. I've done that very occasionally in the past if one particular message persistently seems to be causing a logjam, but this doesn't strike me as one of those scenarios, because it's doing it over and over and over again, even when all previous mail has been cleared (excrutiatingly slowly!) from the accounts a few hours earlier, and every inbox is starting from empty with a completely new batch of different messages.
Any thoughts and possible solutions really appreciated.

Intermittent re-connect problem with airport extreme 802.11n

Hi,
I'm having a problem with my 802.11n airport extreme. When my MacBook goes to sleep, it does not reconnect the my WPA2 personal wireless network. This problem happens about 80% of the time.
I have updated the Airport Extreme firmware to 7.1. I have installed the recent AirPortExtremeUpdate2007002. I am running 10.4.9 and everything is updated according to software update.
Apr 18 22:13:24 computername /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport: Error: WirelessAssociate2() = 88001007 for network spiderweb. An unexpected error occured.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Yes, i am having a problem similar to this. Although my macbook does not go to sleep overnight, i always wake up to see it either 1) not connected to the wireless lan anymore or 2) having a self-assigned IP that doesn't work for the internet.
The only solution to get things working again is to unplug both the modem and the router and then plug the modem back in and then plug the router back in. Very annoying.
But yes, that is the message i get from Console.

Problems with AirPort Extreme and connecting to personal ftp

Hi all
I seem to be having a problem with connecting to my personal server outside of my network. When I connect using a static IP within my network(192.168.1.x) I can connect fine using my Mac and PC so I've ruled out improper server settings. I've mapped a port (21) to the same static IP as my server, but I cannot connect. I am prompted with "An FTP Connection to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" could not be opened because the FTP server dropped the connection" I think I've toggled every option in the Airport Utility but nothing seems to work. Has anybody been successful in making this work?
Thanks for any help offered

OK, thanks for the info, which really helps.
Your AirPort Extreme is in Bridge Mode, so the IP addresses that your devices need are being assigned by the Cradelpoint router, not the AirPort Extreme.
Either the Cradlepoint router is not allowing more than 3 devices to connect, or it is your service provider that is limiting the number of devices that can connect....probably because of very limited bandwidth.
I'm not sure whether you want to try to contact support at Cradlepoint or your service provider to try to find out who is actually responsible for the maximum number of connections allowed, since they will likely each blame the other for the problem.
The workaround...if you want to try it, since it bends networking rules a bit....is to configure the AirPort Extreme as a router, not a bridge.
The upside to this is that all of your devices will be able to connect and get a valid IP address.
One downside is that this will introduce what is known as a Double NAT error on the network, but that is rarely serious on a home network, and Apple does provide you with the option to "ignore" the error, so you get a nice green light on the AirPorts.
Another downside may be....depending on the bandwidth that your service provides....that your connection is really slow....as in dial up speed slow....when you have a number of devices all connected to the network simultaneously, since they will all share the available bandwidth is provided.
I never had any problems in the past with wireless connections when I configured the AirPort as the router. But I also was very careful to avoid downloading large files using the Cradlepoint connection since the bandwidth was quite limited.
Not sure how you want to proceed.
We can tell you how to configure the AirPort as the router in this type of setup if you will let us know what operating system you used to configure the AirPorts, but we cannot guarantee that things will work for you if you try it.

Macbook has Problems with Airport Express newtork

I am using an Airport Express at home. I have my 20" iMac (OS 10.4.11) connected to the network with no problems. When I try to access the network with my Macbook (OS 10.4.10) I have all kinds of problems: I often can not find the network, when I do get onto the I get really slow download speeds (~3 mins for a web page), after waking the Macbook from sleep it can not find the network unless I restart. I even have these problems when the Macbook is right next to the airport (< 1 m).
I don't believe it is a problem with the Airport because my iMac connects perfectly from about 4 m away through the floor.
I don't believe it is the Macbook per se because I can connect to any open network without problems.
It seems to be the odd combination of the Macbook with the Airport.
Does anyone have any suggestions for addressing this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Network
Plug the AE next to the PLC and connect it to the Ethernet port of the PLC. Configure the AE to operate in bridge mode. If your PLC doesn't offer an Ethernet port, use one like the Netgear XAVN2001. If it's already taken, you will need a 4 port switch. You will also need a long 3.5mm audio cable if the amp is not in the proximity of the PLC, available from Amazon for under $5. Finally, create a separate wireless network on the AE.
Client
Connect the client to the AE's wireless network, not your existing network. The client in this case is an iPxd or other computer with iTunes or Airplay/similar PC.
The above basic configuration works flawlessly in my experience. If the Client is to distant from the AE's wireless, you can, as a second step, connect it to your existing network, but be forewarned that in this scenario dropouts abound and the AE frequently disappears from view.

Problems with AirPort since 10.4.11 update

Since I installed the 10.4.11 update the AirPort started to drop connection every now and then, and I have to enable it again manually.
Any known solution to this? Any one having the same problem?
Thanks

I have the same problem. I have an iBook G4 running OSX10.4.11. It’s about 3.5 years old. Using a LinkMAX HSA300A-2 from Earthlink that is probably 6-7 years old.
Internet connection (Earthlink ISP via Airport Express) started randomly disconnecting even though the modem was working normally and I had a green light on AE. At first it would hang up for a few minutes, then 5-10+ minutes. Now it just doesn’t connect at all. Restarting modem would give me a connection again. Restarting Airport does not usually give me a connection. The message is that I'm not connected to the internet. At the same time this was going on, I could connect fine with my Windows XP computer via AE – no problems there.
I gave up on the Airport and plugged Ethernet directly to the computer. That seemed to work, tested it for a couple of days. Then I restarted the Airport (not reset), connection worked for maybe 30 minutes and then stopped again. When I tried to reconnect the Ethernet, I couldn’t get on the internet at all. Had to shut down the computer and restart twice to get a connection. I reset the AE, worked for about 1 hour and then didn’t work anymore. Reset modem and it will be fine for just 10-15 minutes. I now have the computer plugged directly into the modem via Ethernet and internet works okay but I want to use my wireless again!

Problems with airport connecting

Hello can anyaone help me figure out this phenomenon that I have encountered with Airport connecting to a linksys wireless router. I have connected to it numerous times in the past with my Mac and have had no problems, but lately I am unable to connect. I get a connection error message from my airport utility. My iPhone ha the same issue, although IT had no problems connecting before. No changes were made to either device manually. Can someone shed some light on the issue, thanx. Is there maybe some other program to use with the Mac OS that is a bit more in depth, VS. the regular airport connect? Thanks and all the best everyone.

What wireless router are you using? Does it use WEP or WPA for security? If it has multiple channels, have you tried using a different channel?
In Tiger, you go to System Preferences Network pane and, next to Show, select +Network Port Configurations+. That will show a list of network services and the order. I have services I don't used for networking (such as FireWire, Bluetooth, and Internal Modem) unchecked. In Leopard, the unused services have been removed from the list.

Time Capsule Connectivity Problem with Airport Utility and Mavericks

I have a Time Capsule from 2011 which worked perfectly with my IMac and Airport Utility 5.6.1 but since the upgrade to Mavericks, I cannot get it to work with Airport Utility. Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

When you say.....
I cannot get it to work with AirPort Utility....
What does not work? Can you open up AirPort Utility and take us through the steps? What happens after each step?

HP Color Laserjet 3600 Printing Problems with Airport Extreme & JetDirect

I have a HP Laserjet 3600n connected via ethernet cable to our Airport Extreme base station using the built-in JetDirect functionality of the printer. Prior to installing Snow Leopard we had no problems and every computer on the home network could see and print with full functionality on the printer.
After installing Snow Leopard, it took a while but I got the printer working again with the same setup. Then we had a power outage and the printer was no longer visible on the network or in the airport settings. Again it took a while but I once again got it to work. But now it seems like it keeps falling off the network and the printer itself either shows an IP address of 0.0.0.0 or another random one. The IP address should be generated by DHCP by the airport.
I don't know if this is a problem with Snow Leopard, the airport extreme, or the printer. The way I got it to work the last couple times no longer fixes the problem. Someone please help.

I don't know if this is related, but...
My MacBook Pro (Airport) has always been dicey connecting to an HP LaserJet 4000 on my wired LAN. Before Snow Leopard, I used AppleTalk rather than IP printing because it just worked.
But Snow Leopard doesn't support AppleTalk any more, so I reinstalled the printer to connect via JetDirect (which supposedly provides more features). When it works, it works fine. But very often I get a message that it can't connect to the printer. The only thing I've found that fixes the problem is power-cycling the printer, which somehow enables queued jobs to print. Needless to say, this gets old.
Is there some trick I'm missing?

Printing problem with Airport printer

Hi,
I am having problems getting my daughter's G4 Macbook to print with Airport Extreme. The history is:
1. Set up my iMac, Airport Extreme, all well, both G4 and iMac fine over wireless.
2. Added HP Photosmart 8150 to Airport. Worked fine for iMac
3. Added it to Macbook, no go
4. Discovered that I had not actually added it to Macbook. At some point in the past, to allow printing for my daughter we had done a direct USB connection for her, and it was that we were trying to print to. But, it was there via Bonjour as a third printer when I looked.
5. Tested it from the MacBook. Graphic fine, but no text. However, v. pushed for time so no further testing.
6. Daughter tested, no good
7. Looked at all 3 printers on Macbook. 2 x USB (1 8150 plus one other from her University), plus the Bonjour 8150.
8. Decided that installing the same printer twice might be a problem. So deleted all three.
9. Now I can't install. When I go to add a printer the Macbook can't see any. Have downloaded drivers, but to no avail. Have tried as many combinations as I can in drop downs.
Basic Airport connectivity for the G4 is fine - internet functions no problems, no dropped connection etc.
Any thoughts? I am a Mac newcomer, ex PCs, pretty techno-literate.
p.s. Have reset print queues etc

Airport Extreme unit failed - replacement cured all problems
