Problems with Mail (on O2) since upgrade to Mountain Lion

After having spent a frustrating few days trying to get this sorted, I thought I should make folk aware of the above problem. Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I have not been able to send email using smtp.o2.co.uk. The O2 call centre notes that a number of folk have been having this problem.
Some have suggested setting Custom Port to 25 but this hasn't worked for me.
Apparently O2 are going to get back to me within 5 days with an answer. I'm not holding my breath but am pleased to say I can still use my iPhone to send email.
Can't help but wonder if this has anything to do with the fact that I signed up for an iCloud (***@me.com) account at the same time.
Any thoughts?

I got a fix. it works for me. while i'm on ML. safari and mail doesn't work properly. mail can't send emails with attachment and safari unble to open certain webpages.
i've log into my Internet modem, enable router mode from bridge mode. it works fine now. no promlem with sending emails or surfing the web. hope it'll helpful for u guys.

  • Problems with my second monitor after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    Basically I have a Mac Pro 8-core with two video boards (2 x NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB) connected to two monitors. After upgrading to the Lion Mountain, 90% of the time when I start my MAC the second monitor doesn't show it image, keeps in full black screen, what puzzle me is, I can see the mouse arrow on it, so its alive, but its in black, than I have to restart the computer over and over again until it finally make the second shows it contains.
    Have anyone experienced the same problem?!

    Hello Carlo!
    Sorry but I don't understand which part of my question is not clear. I've been to the Apple Store, they asked me to bring my 20kg Mac Pro and both 24" inches Eizo monitors to central London to have it checked. Well, honestly, this is impossible, is an invitation for an accident.
    Is just unbeliavable that no one has experienced my problem, looks like I am the only one person with two monitors using the Lion Mountain.

  • Problems with my Time Capsule since updated to Mountain Lion

    Since I have updated my MacBook Air (late 2010 model) to OS X Mountain Lion, I am experiencing problems connecting my Macbook Air to Time Capsule and experiencing problems in Time Machine copies to the Time Capsule:
    1.- When I turn on my computer, Time Machine starts working, taking a lot of time searching the backup disc (my Time Capsule), then appears an error message (Can not find the disk or it says that the Time Capsule is already in use);
    2.- After several attemps (restarting the computer and restarting the Time Capsule), sometimes Time Machine starts to work, but it shows that it has to copy approximatly 28 G. Also the copy is to slow (it only copied 500 Megabytes in two days).
    In the meanwhile the Time Capsule light is turned on (green) - so it seems the Time Capsule is working normally an the problem would be Time Machine.
    I would not like to restart everytime my Time Capsule or restart my computer in order to make Time Machine works. I would really appreciate help for solving this problem (I apologize for my so basic English).
    My Airport Utility Version is 6.1 (610.31)
    My Time Capsule Version: 7.6.1.
    My Computer: MacBook Air (late 2010)
    My System: OS X Mountain Lion (when I used OS X Lion all was working normal)
    Thanks in advance for your help !!!

    The first backup after an update will be quite slow (but shouldn't be anywhere near that slow).  And the searching on the backup disk will have to be repeated on every backup attempt until one completes normally.
    Connect to the TC via an Ethernet cable. 
    Also see the green box in #D2 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting.  Something there may help get back on track.
    (and your English is fine -- better than many who speak it natively, I'm sorry to say.)

  • Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I cannot restore emails with time machine. In Lion TM created a folder in Mail called recovered emails(or similar) No such folder is created since ML. I am able to see the email I want to restore, but it then disappears

    I am inside Mail, waiting for the TM 'recovered mail' folder to appear - which it doen't.
    I only looked in my home folder after trying several times from within my Main app.

  • 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?

  • Since upgrading to Mountain Lion autocorrect in Mail has stopped.

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion auto-correct in Mail has stopped working. I deleted com.apple.mail and reinstalled Mail, based on other's suggestions. At that point auto-correct in Mail began working. However, when I did that I began getting invalid certificate errors and outgoing mail stopped on my major email account, which is unacceptable. So I reversed that "fix" and replaced com.mail.apple with the Mountain Lion version of that file and the errors stopped. However, auto-correct stopped working again as well. Help!

    While composing a message, do this in Mail's menu:
    Go to Edit > Spelling & Grammar > Correct Spelling Automatically and check that row.

  • HT1338 outgoing e-mail server not working since upgrade to mountain lion

    unable to send mail on one of my e-mail accounts since upgrading to mountain lion

    I had this problem as well after upgrading to 10.8.
    For all e-mail accounts SMTP servers seemed to be unavailable to Mail, regardless of setting TSL/SSL on or off. It turned out, even Thunderbird was unable to send any mail.
    After trying every hint on this forum twice – and to no avail; I found the culprit to my problem. Upgrading my iMac to Mountain Lion had changed the name, that my machine was using in my home network. The new machine name had "(2)" added to the old name. The brackets seem to have disturbed the SMTP servers I use. After changing the name back to anything w/o special characters I was able to send mail again.
    Very strange, since no error message lead to this direction, and only the SMTP was affected, everything else on the internet worked like a charm.
    So if you run into this problem, and no other solution works for you, make sure your LAN-name is not including any special characters, just letters, numbers and "-".
    Mind you: the name I am relating to is not necessarily the one you give your Mac in System Preferences > Sharing. It is the name your home router derives from that name. I am using a Fritzbox as a router and DSL modem; and had to access its web interface to check the actual name that my iMac was using to communicate to the web. That's also where I had to change the name back again.
    Don't know why ML caused the name to change in the first place, maybe the whole thing was unrelated and purely incidental to upgrading to 10.8. Using another router your mileage may also vary. You may still give it a try.

  • Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine.  This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message

    Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine.  This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message. In fact, in the same screen I can often open an email from the same sender with email intact. This is weird. Sometimes I close the page and open a new page. Sometimes that works and sometimes it does not. It is a very annoying thing.

    Hi,
    When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
    When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
    The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
    These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
    Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
    In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
    Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
    This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
    You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
    You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
    I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
    There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
    No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
    Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
    In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
    In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

  • Email not readable since upgrading to Mountain Lion

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I am not able to read my email in the upgraded version of Mail.  All my emails ON MY MAC are readable as normal, but my Inbox emails are there and I can read the single line information (From, Subject, Date Received, Mailbox) for all my emails but when I try and open one I get the revolving spindle wheel and Loading message.  My sent box appears empty unless I send a test email and then all my sent emails appear but again when I try and open one all I get is the same as for my inbox emails.  If I quit and reopen Mail, the inbox does not change but all my sent emails "disappear" again.  Is this an indexing problem or do I need to rebuild my mailboxes.  Although I have back ups, I do not want to take any action to make this situation worse.  Any help would be appreciated.

  • Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router. I have 2 wireless networks in my home. One is the primary whuch all of my devices connect to. The other is for backup only. I cannot connect to the primary with my iMac but have no trouble with any of the other devices which include iphones and ipads.phones and iPads. I can however connect to the backup without a problem. I have tried upgrading the firmware of the router as well as changing the security from WEP to WPA-2, no luck. Can anyone help?

    Try this, it's for information.
    In Finder, open the Go menu, press and hold the option  key, 'Library' will appear on the menu, click and scroll to Application Support, open the folder and scroll to 'AddressBook-v22.abcddb'. Click on the file and press Command-I. Towards the bottom you'll see Permissions, tell me what they are please.

  • Just want to ask about the full screen icon that used to be on the play bar but seems to have disappeared since upgrade to mountain lion, any way to get it back?

    Since upgrading to mountain lion I've noticed the full screen icon which used to be on the playback bar in quicktime has gone, I know you can go to the menus to make it full screen but if you're watching something online like with apple trailers I can't seem to make them fullscreen anymore, is it me or have they just taken this option away now?

    I've been playing the trailers in my browser and the full screen option has gone for me,
    As already stated, the icon was replaced by the "Share" pop-up menu icon in the same location.
    and the command-f keys don't work either when I'm playing in a browser and it's truly only been since I upgraded to mountain lion.
    Strange! It works for me. Here is a link to a screen recording of me wayching a trailer in Safari and later watching a trailer download. In both cases the trailer could be expsnded for full screen viewing and then reduced back to the size of the original 720p player display screen. If you can't do this then you may have a player problem also.

    Why did apple make these changes when they worked perfectly the old way, I mean if it ain't broke don't fix it!
    Only Apple whould know for sure but my guess would be that other users may have requested the "Share" pop-up more. Makes no difference to me because I normally use the key shortcuts anyway.

  • SD card cannot be formatted or written to since upgrade to Mountain Lion.

    Since upgrading to mountain lion, I cannot format (write) to any of my MS-DOS (FAT 32) formatted SD cards. Prior to the upgrade this was never a problem.  Apple Genius bar and calls to support have been no help so far.  Can someone here solve this issue ?

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums! If by "device", you mean your BB, probably not. If, by "device", you mean the card, then probably yes. You can keep diagnosing by trying other things:
    A known-good card in your BB
    This potentially bad card in a different card reader
    This potentially bad card in a known-good BB (one that for sure can read it's Media Card)
    But, given how short a time you've had it, taking it in for evaluation might actually be your best bet.
    Good luck!
