Problem with my email account after attempting to email photos with iphoto

Hi there,
I'm not sure if I'm posting this question in the correct place...please forgive me if not and if you know where I should post it please tell me.
I'm new to using a mac computer. I just bought my first one last week. I loaded some pics yesterday and attempted to email some to a friend...thought I knew how to do this without reading directions. ...well, after a few tries I locked up my computer momentarily and closed out my many attempts to send the few attempts of open emails I was trying to send through iphoto with a pic. iphoto is now fine and I now know how to send the photos through it using email...my problem now is that when I merely click on mail ... it shows the computer is receiving several messages but fails to put them in my inbox. I tried deleting the mailbox and adding it again. Didn't help. I tried rebooting and also shutting down the computer al the way. Didn't work. I am very computer illiterate (as if that wasn't obvious)...if you can help me, please be overly descriptive of what I need to do.
It appears that the email is "hung up" somehow...like stuck in iphoto mode for lack of a better way to describe this.
Please help me if you can.
Thanks so much!
Dawn

forgot to mention my email account is through Cox communications (pop server) if this is important to know.
Thanks again!

I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone. But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network. Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I receive the emails through the cellualr network (again with the wifi off)

In your email settings on the phone check to make sure it is set to receive emails on cellular network. It's a feature you can turn off so your phone isn't constantly updating emails on the cell network, but if you are usually in a place with wifi and aren't concerned about going over your data allowance, you can turn it back on.

Will I still recieve emails from my old email account after creating an iCloud email account on my devices?

After creating an iCloud email will I still recieve emails from my old email account account on my devices?

If the old email account is a non-iCloud email account, then yes. You will continue to receive email from your old account as long as it is still set up in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.
However, if the old email account is an iCloud email account, you will have to add it back on your devices in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then sign in with your old iCloud account IC, in order to continue to receive it on your devices. If you do this, the old email will be fetch only, not push.

What happens to my .me email account after June 30?

What happens to my .me email account after June 30?
When I signed up for iCloud, I was told I could keep my .me email address, but now I'm not so sure. What do I need to know?
Also, does iCloud have anything like iDisk for sharing large files, or should I be using something like DropBox?
Thanks.

Nobody who had an @me.com email address has lost it, as long as they followed Apple's repeated advice to migrate to iCloud before June 30th last year (2012).
If you failed to do as Apple said, then your old MobileMe account will have been deleted along with its contents. Apple were telling customers for over a year what to do and by when.
You were warned repeatedly that MobileMe was ending and that you needed to migrate to iCloud 18 months ago to retain your @me.com address.
Why are you commenting on this so long after the cut off date?

The calender on my iPhone 4 with iOS 6 no longer syncs with iCal 4.0.4 on my mac OS 10.6.8. However it is syncing with my iCloud account. Can someone help me with this?

FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

How do I go back a page on the Ipad mini? I do not see any arrows anywhere. Also when I go to my yahoo email account and open an email I can not find how to go back and log out. This is our first Ipad and it is very different frm android. Thanks

We just purchased our first Ipad. It is a mini with retina display 16 GB. How do I go back a page? I see no arrows to page back. Also when I log into a yahoo email account and open an email I see now way to log out? Thank you for any help

In Safari, (the web browser), there are specific arrows to go back and forward through website pages.
In other Apps, it will depend on how the App is built.
As to Yahoo Mai it depends on where you are viewing the email. If you are using the Mail App, then you don't log out. The Mail accounts in the Mail App are always there.
If you are using the Yahoo App, You can Tap on the folder at the top, then on your account/name, and then on Sign Out.

I do not receive notifications for my email account even though the email setting in Notifications is turned on. How can I fix this?

In iOS 5 I do not receive notifications for my email account even though the email setting in Notifications is turned on. I do receive other notifications. Does anyone have any suggestion on what is wrong or how I should correct it? Thanks.

Hey M0904,
I found the following information regarding troubleshooting notifications, I'd run through them and see if they resolve the issue:
iOS: Understanding Notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
Troubleshooting notifications
Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you are not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
Verify that the app supports notifications.
After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app at least once to begin receiving notifications.
If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
Check Settings > Notifications to ensure that the app is configured for notifications.
If notifications do not appear only in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
If you are still unable to receive notifications and you are using a Wi-Fi connection, verify that the network or firewall is not blocking access to port 5223.
Have a good one,
David

How to configure server side discovery for email account configuration as an email provider ?

Hello,
I would like to know if there is any way to provide configuration settings for a regular (not Exchange) email account on server side (email provider side) ?
iPhone is supporting autodiscover for Exchange but doesn't seem to support it for regular POP or IMAP mail accounts.
I would like to avoid going through Profiles.
Regards,

A further restriction of team workspaces and their inbox is that you cannot write mails on behalf of the tws's address.
Also, you cannot define aliases on the inbox of a tws. There is an open ER 8824582: CREATE AN ALIAS FOR A TEAM WORKSPACE'S EMAIL ADDRESS
Furthermore, you need to wait for 2.1 to have IMAP access on tws's (we definitely hope 2.1 will bring this feature).
All this brought us to the decision of not using tws's inboxes at all (not defining mail addresses for them), and use (pseudo) personal workspaces and delegation for functional inboxes.
HTH, Thomas

Sound like a pfishing email rather than your account being hacked. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4933.

One email account sends and receives emails, the other does not

I have two different email accounts set up on my phone. They both worked, until I had my phone was serviced and wiped clean. Now one account sends and receives and the other does not. I have tried everything from deleting the account on the phone and rebooting, to changing my password. When I reactivate the account I get a message saying "activation server" and that messages will be forwarded within 20 minutes and they never come. I'm not sure what else to try.

Sorry to hear you are having email issues.
What type of email are you unable to receive - Gmail? Hotmail? Internet Service Provider hosted email?

When you go to send an email using this account, do you get an error? Are you able to select this email account for sending an email?
Thanks!

Attempt to share photo from iPhoto gets error message

Attempt to share photo from iPhoto to email gets message: "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination

Do you have iPhoto setup as the mail client? If so go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delte the email account, close iPhoto and reopen and add the account back in.
Or you can change the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane to Mail. Many users found that it works when the iPhoto client wouldn't If you want photo templates Mail has photo stationary templates that you can select.

Greetings from a Photoshop Newbie. I need a computer, preferably a Mac laptop, with some serious processing power. I take photos with a Pentax 645Z; files are 50MB raw. I upload from Adobe Bridge and manipulate the photo, sometimes turning them into files

Greetings from a Photoshop Newbie. I need a computer, preferably a Mac laptop, with some serious processing power. I take photos with a Pentax 645Z; files are 50MB raw. I upload from Adobe Bridge and manipulate the photo, sometimes turning them into files in excess of 250MB. I cannot resize as the large files are needed for enlargements. Have all sorts of problems trying to manipulate, add effects and saving most large files. I need some serious processing power. Can anyone suggest what Mac i should purchase? I thank you in advance for your help :-)

It sounds as if you're having some system-related problems now, unrelated to processing power as such. In particular, a buggy video driver can cause everything to slow to a crawl.
Medium format files are big, true, but not so big as to cause significant slowdowns on a normally functioning and reasonably current computer. A laptop will always be slower than a well-equipped desktop system, though. Mac vs PC plays no part in this, performance is unrelated to platform.
Bottlenecks are different in ACR and Photoshop, so that should give you a clue. ACR is computing-intensive and mostly limited by CPU speed. Photoshop, however, is mostly bandwidth-intensive and mainly limited by memory and disk throughput. It's also sensitive to GPU issues.

Hello.. I have one problem. I used automator to automaticly sync my photos to iphoto. Now I don't want it any more. How can I disable it?

If you have iPhoto v9.6.1 then just launch it. Done.
IF you don't, download it:
Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
