Putting emoticons in Apple's eMail program

Does any one know of any utility that I can use to put emoticons in an email being written by Apple's standard email program?
Thanks
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

The Mail.app preference file (which stores all account information and general Mail.app preferences) is located at Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.mail.plist.
All Mail.app mailboxes and other data is stored in the Mail folder at Home > Library > Mail.
With the Mail.app quit on the new hard drive, place a copy of the Mail folder from the old hard drive at Home > Library on the new drive. If there is an existing Mail folder at Home > Library, this will replace it.
Place a copy of the com.apple.mail.plist file from the old hard drive at Home > Library > Preferences on the new hard drive. If there is an existing com.apple.mail.plist file at Home > Library > Preferences on the new hard drive (and there should be one if you have launched the Mail.app on the new hard drive), this will replace it.
Launch Mail on the new hard drive and the Mail.app should be completely restored or identical to the Mail.app on the old hard drive.

How do I put a recent photo on my Apple Mail email program?

I am using OS 10.3.9
This question is for Apple MAIL email program and the emails that I send from my Desktop, not from the .Mac site.
Several years ago I did what was necessary to have my photo put automatically on each outgoing email that I send. (I realize that not everyone can see that photo; that is not the problem.)
PROBLEM: I now have more recent photos and would like to take off the old photo and replace it with a more recent photo but I forgot the procedure for doing this and can find it nowhere!
Please, can someone write down the steps that I must go through to take off the old photo and replace it with a new photo?

Dear Mulder — I went to the Help and found the following instructions:
"If someone using a .Mac mail account sets up his or her account to share pictures, when you view a message from that person in Mail you'll see the shared picture. The picture is not sent in the message itself; instead, when you view the message, Mail looks for the picture on the .Mac server. You can only view shared pictures from a .Mac account using Mail and webmail.mac.com."
However: Although I belong to .Mac and do have a .Mac email address, I rarely use webmail.mac.com. Any mail that goes there (almost nothing at all) gets forwarded to my Desktop email account. I use the Apple Mail program on my Desktop, not at the website. Would the the picture be visible then? If I send an email to myself I do see the photo... but am I the only one seeing it?

How do I get my email in Apple's Mail program from old drive to new drive?

I can not determine from Apple's support info how to export my email in Apple's Mail program from the old drive to the new drive.
The old 60 GB drive was at 55GB and had 3 volume structure problems. It would not backup all files using SuperDuper!, but I could backup the user files onto an external 250GB Tintanium Fantom Drive. So I installed a new 120 GB in the iMac and took the old 60GB drive and put it in an external firewire drive housing, which mounts, runs and will even act as the startup drive. I installed 10.3.9 on the new 120GB drive. I was able to export the address book over to the new drive with no problems, but I don't know how to export the email.
There does not appear to be an export function in Apple's Mail program (This sounds kind of ???).
I have a lot of email (#???) in a lot folders and subfolders (60) in addition to the inboxes, plus all the sent mail (2,000)

What apple email program works with OSX 10.6.7? I have Apple mail 4.4, but it doesn't work with OSX 10.6.7?

The reason you're seeing this is that you have somehow gotten an outdated copy of Mail on your system. One possible reason is that you moved Mail out of the Applications folder (or into a sub-folder inside the Applications folder), in the process preventing it from being updated. You'll want to put Mail back directly in the Applications folder if this is the case. The other possibility is that you have somehow installed, restored or copied an old copy of Mail on your machine.
In either case, as long as Mail is in the right place, applying the combo updater will update Mail to the current version. Software Update cannot do that because Software Update sees that you are using the current version of the OS and believes there is no need to update, while the combo updater "forces" installation of all updated files.

Hello cohenj80,

First go here - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and login under the manage tab. Check your information and be sure it is all correct.
An AppleID is nothing more than an email address, so if you see another email address in the store, then someone has logged in with a different AppleID than yours. Did you let someone else use your iPhone?

I'm new to Apple's Mail program (I've used AOL for years). How do I configure Mail so once an email is read it automatically disappears from the list of emails? Conversely, how do I mark "keep as new" an email I've read but I want to remain on the screen?

Right click on the email in the left hand pane. Select Mark as Unread to return it to an unread state. Click Delete to move it to the trash or file it in a folder if you have any configured. You may need to click the show button on the upper left hand side of the window to see your folders. The + sign at the bottom of that pane allows you to add a new folder.

If you do not have a Rescue email (secondary email), you need to contact apple support, they will guide you through the process of resetting your security questions.

No need to get in touch with account security because they will only tell you what I'm about to tell you...
Just log into the appleid.apple.com website > sign in with his/her apple id > go to password and security in the left side > enter the security questions > and from there you can edit the rescue email.

Apple ios Developer Program membership error

hi i recently brought a Apple ios Developer Program membership but when a day later i got a email that said:
"The billing information you used on the Apple Online Store to purchase an Apple Developer Program membership does not match the billing information you provided during enrollment. Before your membership can be activated, we'll need a PDF copy of your government-issued photo ID."
I had a look at the billing information and what I think is the problem is that there is a couple of problems such as the name is my full name on one form and the short version on the other. Another difference is herts and Hertfordshire same county just the short version and the long version. And finally I put my town one in caps and one not in caps.
Most of these errors are because I used shortened formats of the names there was nothing wrong with my details but it got flagged up and now it says i have to send in id i contacted support about it but they havent got back yet
what do i have to do to fix it? if i contact support and tell them that all is wrong is that the names are shortened will they let me have the dev account without haveing to spend ages sending in my id?
Thanks

If your application is held up, they have told you why and what they require to correct things, then I would say, yes, that is the ONLY way. Nothing we say here will change that - we do not speak for Apple of the Apple Developers account managers, we are just fellow users of Apple products here.

HT204053 I have recently changed my apple id email address, which was ok however I have recently changed my password and now I have icloud account/sign-in issues, can anyone help?

I changed my apple id email address last week, not a problem I just entered the correct info on my 6 apple devices for FaceTime, AppStore and iTunes.
The issue now, is that I have changed my appleid password so that the kids couldn't install any apps and charge my credit card.
Now I am getting an icloud authorisation error, it is telling me that the account (old apple id) or password are incorrect.
What have I done and how can I fix it?
Do I have to 'delete account' on my iphone and add a new one? I have just paid for the max icloud storage plan as well.

I FOUND THE SOLUTION!
I had the same exact problem. I had my old apple ID connected to a school email which did not exist anymore. My ipad was prompting me to put the password in for that ID and I could not delete it from my ipad because the "Find My Ipad" was turned on, once again prompting for password. I called apple and they said this Apple no longer exists and is not in there system, which I knew already. After hours on the phone nobody could help me. Try this.
-Go to create a new Apple ID and use the same email address as the old apple ID which is locked in on your ipad
-Create a new password and all that, it will say it send a verification link to your email, in my case my email no longer exists so I could not do this
- I called Apple to explain this problem and I asked if they could verify it for me, which they did after I convinced them it was worth a try. The guy told me that the verification shouldnt matter and should still be able to login but he did it anyway. You can try skipping this step but if it doesn't work then go ahead.
-Go to ICloud and click on your account, the email should be grayed out but it should allow you to change that password, put in the new password which you just created.
-This allowed me to sign in to accept the new terms and conditions but it said "unable to conncet to server" so I just backed out and went to "Delete Account" and it worked!
The whole idea is to re-create your old apple ID into Apple's system and then use that new password. The guy at Apple said tons of people called about this problem and nobody could solve it. I thanked him for helping me and he thanked me for helping him. I hope this helps you!

How to get the output of a program into the email program.

hi
i had created a java mail program and the keygeneration program.seperately.
i want to get the keygeneration into my email program.that should be sent along with the text message.so pls help me in this regared.
i had pasted my coding her
email pgm.
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
To use this program, change values for the following three constants,
SMTP_HOST_NAME -- Has your SMTP Host Name
SMTP_AUTH_USER -- Has your SMTP Authentication UserName
SMTP_AUTH_PWD -- Has your SMTP Authentication Password
Next change values for fields
emailMsgTxt -- Message Text for the Email
emailSubjectTxt -- Subject for email
emailFromAddress -- Email Address whose name will appears as "from" address
Next change value for "emailList".
This String array has List of all Email Addresses to Email Email needs to be sent to.
Next to run the program, execute it as follows,
SendMailUsingAuthentication authProg = new SendMailUsingAuthentication();
public class SendMailUsingAuthentication
private static final String SMTP_HOST_NAME = "smtp.mail.yahoo.com";
private static final String SMTP_AUTH_USER = "xxxx";
private static final String SMTP_AUTH_PWD = "xxxx";
//private static final String emailMsgTxt = "Online Order Confirmation Message. Also include the Tracking Number.";
private static final String emailSubjectTxt = "Order Confirmation Subject";
private static final String emailFromAddress = "[email protected]";
private static String emailMsgTxt = "I am unable to attend to your message, as I am busy sunning"
+ "myself on the beach in Maui, where it is warm and peaceful."
+ "Perhaps when I return I'll get around to reading your mail."
+ "Or perhaps not.";
private static final String[] emailList = { "[email protected]","[email protected]"};
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
SendMailUsingAuthentication smtpMailSender = new SendMailUsingAuthentication();
smtpMailSender.postMail( emailList, emailSubjectTxt, emailMsgTxt, emailFromAddress);
System.out.println("Sucessfully Sent mail to All Users");
public void postMail( String recipients[ ], String subject,
String message , String from) throws MessagingException
boolean debug = true;
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", SMTP_HOST_NAME);
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "25");
props.put("mail.smtp.protocol","smtp");
props.put("mail.debug", "true");
Authenticator auth = new SMTPAuthenticator();
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, auth);
session.setDebug(debug);
// create a message
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
// set the from and to address
InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(from);
msg.setFrom(addressFrom);
InternetAddress[] addressTo = new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++)
addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients);
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);
// Setting the Subject and Content Type
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setContent(message, "text/plain");
Transport.send(msg);
private class SMTPAuthenticator extends javax.mail.Authenticator
public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication()
String username = SMTP_AUTH_USER;
String password = SMTP_AUTH_PWD;
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
keygeneration program:
import java.io.Serializable;
     import java.security.Security;
import com.sun.net.ssl.*;
     import javax.crypto.KeyGenerator;
     import javax.crypto.Mac;
     import javax.crypto.SecretKey;
     public class Eval {
     public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
     String inputString ="0x0b0b0b0b";
     KeyGenerator keyGen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("HMACMD5");
     SecretKey secretKey = keyGen.generateKey();
     Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(secretKey.getAlgorithm());
     mac.init(secretKey);
     byte[] byteData = inputString.getBytes("UTF8");
     byte[] macBytes = mac.doFinal(byteData);
     String macAsString = new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(macBytes);
     System.out.println("Authentication code is: " + macAsString);

I'm not sure what's confusing you. Just generate a String (using a StringBuffer)
with the data you need and use it as the content of the mail message. If each
recipient needs different content, they'll each need a different MimeMessage
object.

Safari won't open web page on my domain with apple e-mail program open

Mail Version 3.2
Imac 2.4 ghz 3 gig ram
Mac OS x 10.5.2 up to date
After installing Safari 3.1, I have had an issue that I thought was going to drive me mad. If I have the mail program open, I cannot access any webpage on my domain. Lets say my domain was vvv.com. If I have the mail program open I cannot access www.vvv.com, no any subdomains on there. If I close the mail program and then just refresh the page in the browser, it works just fine. I have searched thru the forums, but cannot identify a solution. If anyone has an idea for me to try, I would appreciate any feedback and helpful hints. Yes, I know that I can just close the email program, but I am in the process of starting up a business website and having to remember to open my email program every so often is something I don't need.
And by the way, the problem also affects firefox also.
Thanks in advanced..
