Problems with email since upgrading to Lion os

Hi, I recently upgraded my iMac and macbook pro to Lion os and email has changed on my iMac but not macbook pro, also if i put in the details i have for my email account its not working on my iMac with the upgraded email but it is working on my macbook pro and also iphone 4s, anyone help??

There are many new features in Lion Mail, not all of them good as you've probably found.
Since you are able to get mail on your MBP, but not your iMac, probably safe to rule out any server-side error.
For your iMac, may I suggest that you set up a new user account, add in your email credentials and see what happens. If you are successful, that would indicate that something is wrong with your main user email setting or preferences.
If your new user email works, then you may consider deleting your old accounts, re-start, and then re-enter the info into Mail.
If that sitll doesn't do the trick, you can navigate to the /~user/library folder, find the Mail folder, delete it, then go to the Preferences folder, find the com.appe.mail. plist and the com.apple.mail.plist.lockfile, delete both of them, empty the trash, re-start, and re-enter your email info again. These steps WILL delete all of your old email. You have been warned.

Problems with emailing since upgrading to iOs5.

Till I upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOs5 I easily could do my emailings. Now, also having changed my MobileMe account to iCloud, my personal email account doesn't work properly anymore. I can send mails (although goes very slow) but cannot receive them anymore. Mails sended to iCloud (*@me.com) are fine but I want to keep my personal account + provider as my standard emailing-practise. I tried everything: a) killing iCloud, b) re-installing my personal account; c) new accounts, d) putting SSL on, and off, whatever; nothing helps. Maybe something with wifi?
Can please somebody tell me what I do wrong? and what I should do better? I don't want to go all the way back to iOs 4** but I really need emailing when I am on the road.
Thanks in advance for some advices.

I also have a sound issue with fast track pro and posted this on m-audio forum today to see what turns up...
Periodically the sound through my FastTrack Pro crackles then dies.
I think this is more prevalent, albeit I don't understand why, when changing sound 'sources' e.g. if last use was via Ableton and next was from youtube, or visa versa - I can't replicate this at will, it seems to be random.
I can resuscitate things things by going in to the driver settings and changing a setting e.g. the output channel, saving (Applying), then changing back and saving again.

Is anyone having problems with Safari since upgrading to Lion?

I've got 2 problems.
1. Gmail gadget in iGoogle is blank
2. On a lot of pages, some of the text appears as a lot of A's in square boxes
Neither of these problems appear in Firefox 5.0.1
Anyone having the same problems?
I've tried running Disk Utility Repair Permissions
Cheers

Hi Thomas - listen, I want to tell you that we aren't necessarily all in the same boat...what I mean is that this problem almost ruined my business and I spent a long time reading the dozen or so threads in this board, and tried solutions people suggested in each one. I had two separate problems...the first was like yours, and it was indeed solved by the time machine save setting mentioned above. The other was that I couldn't get an object selected with a click of the mouse every tenth time or so...I had to click onto a different slide and then come back to mine. I started turning off every single piece of hardware and software one by one, in search of a conflict. It turns out that my Apple Magic Mouse was the problem. I switched it to a plain MS wireless mouse and problem solved. *****, but it let's me continue. My point is that too many people are using Keynote just fine for any of us to throw in the towel and say it's universally and irreversibly broken. There are different bugs in play, but you have to go on the assumption that there's a way out if you can spot what's not quite right. Sorry I don't have your specific solution, but this mindset is what saved me from jumping ship to PPT.

HT2506 Is there anyone else who is having problems printing with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X?

Since upgrading to Lion OS X, I have not been able to print any of my documents that were created in Adobe PDF. All calls to customer support have been a bust.
When I try to print anything it comes out looking like this:
Apple PREVIEW team!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi Linc...
Here is a copy of your prior post to me on a different forum...
Still no resolution...

Re: Anyone having problems with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X? When using a pdf form that allows multiline text, I am finding that the printing is completely illegible. The lines are stacking on top of each other.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, selectHelp from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Mar 11, 2012 4:13 PM (in response to Linc Davis)
Did all of that yesterday, with the Apple Representative on the phone, and nope, still a problem...it was kind of exciting, really, they kept going up and up the tiers of support until I got disconnected...Fortunately I had the email address of the gentleman who was helping me so that I could email him back and let him know that we got disconnected...as you might imagine, he still has not emailed me back. They were able to receive a copy of the form that I use for charting and try it in their facility on their computers, so we know:
1- it is not just my computer.
2- it occurred only after installing Lion OS X, not sure if they have tried it on Snow Leopard, but that's what I would have done if I was them...assuming that somewhere in Apple someone has not upgraded to Lion.
3- it is not just my software.
I think the problem is with the newer iteration of Preview not communicating well with the Adobe .pdf. probably some line of coding that needs to be written and insertedinto their program for multiline text.
:-) Thank you for your help!

Problem Printing PDFs since upgrading to Lion

Since upgrading to Lion on two machines (macbook pro 2011 and imac 2010) I have had a HP CM2320 and a HP M2727 produce the following error whilst printing from Preview PDF documents:
/usr/libexec/cups/filter/cgpdftops failed
The PDF documents are many but here is an example,
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26737363/Modified%20contract%20Causing%20error%20in%20pr int.pdf
The only way I can print is to print using Generic PCL printer driver. Gereic Postscript also causes the problem.
The problem doesn't occur when printing from Snow Leopard.

I went to the page of your link: Safari 5 without plugins displayed the pdf page perfectly.
Then I saved as.. to the desktop.
Then I opened it with preview, printed pefectly.
Closed Preview and opened it in Adobe Reader (I do not use Acrobat): printed perfectly.
I don not have a HP printer but I tried it on Canon Multifunctionals.
So I conclude: it is not Safari (or a plugin), it is not the document itself, it has to do with the HP driver(s) probably.

Problems with apps since upgrading to Mountain Lion

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I get the message "Application Not Responding" for several apps (Quark 9, CS5 apps, and Word for Mac) after they've been sitting open and not being used for a couple of hours. I have to "Force Quit", then restart the program. Not sure what's going on. Didn't have this problem with Lion. Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this?

OK, I updated Quark 9, CS5 apps & Word for Mac. Quark 9 and InDesign are still giving me "Application Not Responding" after being open and unused for a few hours. The other apps are now working fine...Photoshop, Illustrator, Adobe Bridge and Word for Mac. Any suggestions for what I should do about Quark and InDesign?

Problem with colors after upgrading to Lion

After upgrading to Lion, I could no longer distinguish between very light greys (e.g., #f8f8f8) and white (#ffffff) on my laptop monitor. The difference is readily apparent on many websites.
If I plug my laptop into an external monitor, the problem goes away, and stays away even AFTER unplugging it.
Neither recalibrating the color profile nor rebooting have any effect.
Any ideas?

iPhoto is not part of Lion. It comes with a Mac. So, the version you own is the one that came with your Mac. If you want the newest version, you'll have to purchase it from the App Store.

Problems with Bluetooth after upgrading to Lion?

I just upgraded to Lion and now when I plug my cinema display onto my MacBook bluetooth shows as unavailable. Sometimes it stops the trackpad working too. I took it into Regent Street Apple Store and the same thing happened there, they seem to think it's a software bug.

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Or you can use your Apple ID to register with this site and go the Apple BugReporter. Supposedly you will get an answer if you submit feedback.

Problem with email since installing iOS 6.1.2

Since I installed iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad 2 my email has failed. I get an error message saying the mail server is not responding. Have no problems with this email account (ntlworld.com) on either my iPhone or PC. I've tried resetting the iPad with home/power button with no success. I'm not techy, so need an easy-to-follow solution please!

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Constant problems with Java since upgrade to OS X 10.7

I recently purchased a Macbook Air with OS X 10.7 installed, now updated to version 10.7.5.
I'm having constant issues with Java and repeatedly being told to update to the latest version, even when I have the latest version installed (now Java 7 update 9). I've visited dozens of forums and seen posts about the same issue, but none of the solutions work for me.
I've seen variations of the following advice in several places:
Apple disables the Java plug-in and Webstart applications when the Java update is done using Software Update. Also, if the Java plug-in detects that no applets have been run for an extended period of time it will again disable the Java plug-in.
To enable the Java plug-in
Go to Finder > Applications > Utilities > Java Preferences.
In the Java Preferences window check the box for Enable Applet plug-in and Webstart applications.
But I can't find anything called "Java Preferences" in my Utilities folder. I found a Java control panel in my System preferences, and it tells me everything is OK and running.
I also see comments about emptying the cache (Java cache?), but can't find where it's kept. I also can't find where the Java plugins are stored. So what to do?
Thanks for any assistance.
Martha

I went to the link on the Support website, downloaded the Java from there (Java for OS X 2012-006) and installed it. Then I went to the Java control panel in System prefs and the information is exactly the same as it was before I installed Java version 6. It still says I have the recommended version of Java (Java 7 update 9), which is what I installed a few hours ago.
Then I went back to the website where I've been having problems today and went through the process of requesting a document from the Spanish tax authorities, which I've never had trouble with in the past (before Lion). I got the same results as earlier and the same page sending me to www.java.com to "download the latest version". So I'm back to square one.
There's a comment on the page your link sent me to that mentions the "Missing plug-in" region on some web pages, but I've never seen this anywhere. All I ever get is a message telling me to update my Java.
Is there another version of Java that would work better? If so, where can I get it?
Thanks.

Problems with Safari since upgrading to Snow Leopard!!! Help!!!

I updated my OS to Snow Leopard a couple of weeks ago and have noticed a significant change in the way my Safari runs. I NEVER had problems with it prior to the upgrade. Lots of times it is unbearably slow in trying to open the page and more often than not it says "Safari Cannot Open The Page". This leads me to close Safari, wait a couple of seconds, and open it back up again, then repeat if it happens again! All of my other programs seem to be running fine, it's just Safari... and I did reset Safari and empty the cache. I would hate to have to lug my 24" iMac through the mall to the Apple store. ANY ADVICE?!?!?!?!?! Much appreciated...

HI,
Try Safari maintenance...
Do this one more time anyway...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Could be a 3rd party plugins causing the problem. Go to ~/Library/Internet Plugins. Move any 3rd party plugins to the Trash and restart your Mac.
Also, if you are running Safari in 64 bit mode, run in 32-bit mode instead. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. *Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
Now restart your Mac.
If nothing has helped, then post a crash log and we can get a better idea of what's happening...
How to locate a crash log:
1. Open Finder.
2. Click "Go" in the menu, then select "Go to Folder".
3. Copy and paste this path into the Finder dialog: ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/
4. Click the Go button.
5. Finder opens the folder containing the crash log. Look for a the crash file with a date field that looks like the most recent.

Is anyone having problems with keynote after upgrading to Lion?

After upgrading my system to Lion, my keynote presentations are becoming a nightmare. They crash all the time, and are becoming significantly slower, not just due to the autosave but after making just a few movements the beach ball appears and takes forever for me to be able to edit the document again. When I try to put into presentation mode the computer stops, sometimes I even lost the images inside the saved prasentation, and when I tried to recover from the auto saved versions, they were corrupted also. I talked to the apple support here in Brazil and after running all kinds procedures to check and fix the disk and hardware even in the safe mode, it still remained with the same problem. Another suggestion was to reinstall the keynote, and I even bought a new version from the app store even though the old one was updated. Again, nothing changed. Does anyone have the same problem or knows what to do?

Hi Thomas - listen, I want to tell you that we aren't necessarily all in the same boat...what I mean is that this problem almost ruined my business and I spent a long time reading the dozen or so threads in this board, and tried solutions people suggested in each one.

Problems with Mail after Upgrading to Lion

I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion (which is the most updated OS my Mac can run)
Now Mail doesn't recognise my me.com password and I can't send or receive emails from my me.com account on the upgraded Mac - although the iCloud account emails work just fine.
On my other devices (iPad and a non-upgraded Mac running Snow Leopard) can send and receive from the me.com account just fine
Any help or thoughts would be much appreciated

It would always be easier to fix the Mail problems.
