Serious Mail Issue - Help

Hi,
I can't use Mail anymore.
After clicking the icon I get the message 'Mail quit unexpectedly'.
Within a huge information report I see also:
Exception Type: EXCBADACCESS (SIGBUS)
Exception Codes: KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE at 0x00000001016f6f98
Crashed Thread: 4 Dispatch queue: com.apple.root.default-priority
I should also say that I'm fighting with MobileMe on our new IPad...
But is was working fine so far until this afternoon.
I hope someone can help !
Thanks.

OK, I run disk repair utility before I opened this thread.
Now I created a new user account and started mail, successfully !
I logged off and re-logged on with my regular account and started mail, successfully !
This is strange...
I still suspect MobileMe !!! Because meanwhile I also cut the link to MobileMe. Maybe that was the reason why mail worked fine again.
But I already connected MobileMe again, and Mail still works fine so far.
Again, this is strange...
I think I need MobileMe support. I'll try to join a chat tomorrow.
Thanks again.

Serious Volume Issues : HELP!

Good Morning,
We have had Fios for about 8 month and since we signed up have been having serious volume issues. When we turn on the tv and the fios (HD Box w/DVR) the volume will turn on and it will be in a mono tone with no bass just very bad sounding, other times we turn it on and there is no sound. To get "normal sound" we typically have to turn on and off tv a couple times to get to work. If we turn on tv and have "funny sound" we can flip to DVR and watch tv with perfectly fine sound. We can also turn on DVD player and watch tv with perfectly fine sound. This makes me think it's fios or the box?? We have had a refresh to our box and we just recieved a new box and it is still happpening!! My husband has switched the HDMI cables to the alternate port on our tv (I think that is what he said??) and nothing helps. Our tv is a Samsung LCD and it is maybe 2 1/2 years old at the most. We have never had any issues with this with Directv and can't figure it out. Does anyone have any advice?
Our second issue is on our other tv when we turn on the fios box and attempt to watch tv, Spanish music comes through the subwoofer of our sound sound. Again never an issue until Fios. My husband bought a RF (????) filter and no such luck. Any suggestions?
Thanks as we can not watch tv in our home without it being a huge pain in the butt!

seeing as how the issue is the same with 2 different HD-DVR's I would assume it is one of the many HDMI issues that occur with the motorolla boxes... try another means of cabling for audio... such as composite (red/white) or digital audio cable
as far as the other box is concerned, with the spanish audio..... that box/TV probably has the SAP turned on.... on the box, go to Menu > Settings > Language > Audio Language.... and switch to English preffered... if it is your TV, consult the owners manual for specific instructions on how to change the setting on the TV.

IMAP E-mail Issues, Help!

Just decided to go IMAP with all of my email accounts and devices. I was under the impression that emails should look the same on all devices (what's in my inbox, deleted, etc.) however, no email is showing up on my iPhone. It loads on to my machines, but not on the phone. It says 'downloading 1 of 14 messages' but never actually downloads any mail. Any help would be much appreciated!

IMAP server is fine. I only have problems with my iPhone. Even then, the problen is intermittent.
Screenshots:
This is typical. Old email is cleaned out, but new email is not displayed. Running update does nothing.
a While later update now brings in old emails. The date of the update is Wednesday, yet the previous Sundays emails are displayed. Running update again does nothing. After a day or two, it begins working fine. This situation happens over and over.

MSI GT780DX Serious keyboard issue - Help Needed

Hello everyone,
I have an MSI GT780DX and a few months ago it started to fail the x key when I pressed it...
After sometime it started failing the W key...
Then it was the arrow down key...
So I bought another keyboard and I managed to install it in place, the led lights worked just fine but I'm with a terrible issue now.
The keys are all wrong, for example the space bar = backspace when I press it, the a = ; the j=l and so on... all the keys are mixed up...
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how to fix it?
My notebook is the msi gt780dx with Win 7 (its the original Win7 that came with the notebook)... The new keyboard has the same part number but its symbol for the windows key is different (it's the Win 8 logo)
Please any help would be gladly appreciated.
Best Regards.

Hi I tried resetting the EC and no change...
Then I try installing Win 8 but at the serial number screen the keys are already messed up...
Tried with ubuntu also and the same.
I'm assuming its not an OS related problem...
And yes, warranty was already off when I switched the keyboards.
Any other ideas?
Does anyone also know where can I find a Win7 keyboard for this notebook?
I'm running out of options...

Strange & first time mail issue, help anyone?

On .mac account, send mail to one correspondent results in her only seeing subject and nothing in body. Other correspondents from same account have no problems, this is the only person who cannot view. Confirmed in "Sent" Folder, entire message is visible. Awaiting results of sending email from different account, but anyone have similar experience? Thoughts? No viral activity on my end (and I do a daily virus check)
Thank you in advance

Sending from your .Mac account via webmail access or via the Mail.app?
Is this a message received that was forwarded or a newly composed message?
Do you know which OS and email client this recipient is using?
If the same occurred with all recipients, then likely a Mail.app problem. Since it occurs with only one recipient, then likely a problem on the recipient's end.
Of course you have no viral activity since there are no viruses (by definition of a virus) that currently infect or affects OS X and if this were a virus, it would involve an attachment and all recipients using antivirus software would be reporting a problem with the attachment or attachments. Did you include any attachments with the message?

E-mail issues help.....

If you delete your email account on the iphone do you delete it permanently?

No, you can add it back. If it is an IMAP or Exchange account the email contents will resync. If it is a POP3 account any mail on the phone will be lost.

MSN E-Mail issues - Help!

I have an MSN Email, have entered all information and cannot get it to work. Does MSN work with this phone?

trickyrick89,
The iPhone works with POP3, IMAP, and Exchange IMAP accounts for email.
Do you have POP3 or IMAP server settings?
Is the problem with sending or receiving?

Need help trouble shooting mail issue

Mail issue started when the compter (imac intel, g4, os 10.6.8) said it needed to restart during a mail download. I restarted, then the mail program would not stop downloading older messages. I went online and followed a whole bunch of suggestions, which only made matters worse (preferences... drag com.mail.plist to desktop, add it back, rebuild mail) nothing worked. I then trashed the mail program, and trashed some of the mail cache (not wanting to lose preferences, I lett this cache). Then mail I could not access mail without the set-up assistant showing on screen. So... (digging a deeper and deeper hole!) I tried to restore mail from my time machine back-up (severl days prior to issue) and it did not help. I then reinstalled applications from snow leopard... not helpful. I then figured I could use migration assistant to copy my working mail program from my mac pro and this did not solve the issues. Of course all of this taking me away from my Christmas shopping:-)
So, I tried to set it up manually, but the program will not save the password and it keeps asking for the password but rejecting it each time.
Any ideas??

Thanks for your suggestion regarding contacting Apple. I called the Express service and talked for a couple of hours trying to resolve the issues.
One, to deal with the password issue, Keychain Access > Preferences > click on Reset My Default Keychain, close.
For the original issue of mail downloading messesges from my server every time I checked mail,
Library > Mail folder > messagealreadydownloaded3 > drag to trash. Issues resolved!!!
As for creating a pretty good mess... well all I can say is that I was following suggestions from other users that have posted online with similar issue. Lesson learned??? Not sure if there was one:-)

Odd mail issues, need help

A couple of things I need help with.
1) Mail constantly goes offline and pops up a dialog box asking for my password. I enter my password in the box and hit okay and it doesn't take. I can hit cancel and put mail back online but that's a pain. What is causing that and how do I fix it?
2) People send me mail and then about 30 min later I get the same email again. This problem doesn't happen with every email, just some.
I have no mail rules on. and I run virus software and it's fine.
Can someone please help me on this. Thanks!

Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, choose Keychain First Aid from the application menu, and proceed to repair the keychain. If that doesn’t work, you may try removing the password entry from the keychain and letting Mail create it again.
Also, in Mail open Help > Mail Help and read the article titled “Mail keeps asking for my keychain password”, in case it applies to you. There is a related article titled “My password is not saved” that you may also want to read, but beware that the last suggestion provided there (deleting the mail account) is wrong and could cause irretrievable data loss if this was a POP account.
Note that Mail doesn’t always correctly report what the problem really is. If Mail can connect to the server but cannot log into your mail account for some reason, it’ll ask for your password, regardless of whether that’s really the problem or not. Don’t keep entering the password every time, because that’s not the problem (click Cancel instead, and take the account back online afterwards).
What’s the time interval chosen in Mail > Preferences > General > Check for New Mail? If it’s set to Every minute, try changing it to Every 5 minutes.
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
Also, try using a different method to connect to Internet, if possible, or connecting the computer to Internet as directly as possible, i.e. bypassing any routers that might be present, using an ethernet cable instead of wireless, etc., and see whether that makes a difference.
BTW, if you’re using Mac OS X 10.3, as your profile indicates, it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Mac OS X 10.3 & earlier forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance.

Serious resolution issues with After Effects CC (2014) on Windows 8.1 Pro on Dell Precision M3800 laptop??

My new company installed Adobe Creative Cloud (There was some annoying Proxy issues at first, because of the seriously tight I.T policies) but we are having some serious resolution issues with After Effects CC 2014 (also have this resolution problem with Adobe Premiere, Media Encoder, Muse) on Windows 8.1 Pro on a Dell Precision M3800 laptop with icons and interface looking too small and hard to see, is there a fix, an update or a work around, can anyone help?
Any help will be appreciated!
k.regards
Ramon

Hi Todd is there a time-frame for this fix, there is a lot of pressure on me, because I convinced my company to get the Creative Cloud and quite a lot of the CC software is not compatible with the latest Windows 8.1 OS.
Is there at least a work around, until this big fix comes along?
k.regards

Unity Connection Voice Mail Issue

Hi,
I have a weird Unity Connection Voice Mail issue and would appriciate any help i can get. Many thanks in advance.
I have Unity connection 7.0 and CUCM 7.0 integrated in a lab enviroment and here is what happens.
When I place a call internally say from 2001 to 2002, things work as expected, 2002 rings and it goes to voicemail where I can leave voicemail and listen to it from 2002.
However, if I place call from the PSTN to the same number 2002 (or any other number in other sites etc) the call again rings in 2002 and goes to voicemail, unity cnx plays the greetings for 2002 and says record your message as usual. Everything up to point is fine, then when the time on the PSTN phone is showing around 14 seconds into the call unity starts playing, "to send this message press one", if I press one nothing happens.
I have rebuilt unity and cucm, even just configured the bare minimum in the lab and still getting the same result. I tried calling from E1 connection and T1 connection but with the same results.
I have run out of ideas...

Sounds like one way audio from PSTN to your Unity Connection, couple of things to check:
1. ensure your protocols are bound properly on the GW, i.e. SIP/H323/MGCP
2. Make sure IP routing is OK between Unity and the voice gateway

When I am on my home wifi I can send e-mail. When I am not on my home e-mail but on a wifi network or using the 3g network I cannot send e-mail. HELP HOW TO FIX.

When I am on my home wifi I can send e-mail. When I am not on my home e-mail but on a wifi network or using the 3g network I cannot send e-mail. HELP HOW TO FIX.

I know this question is a few years old now, but I recently found myself having the exact same issues;
Using my iphone or ipad at home created no problems at all, but I couldn't send e mails when away from my home network.
I recently switched broadband supplier at home and set up a new e mail address, then my problems began!
I openly admit I'm not great with technology and, to be honest, some of the answers provided on these forums confuse me more than the questions!
But this worked for me:
I went along the lines that the fault wasn't with my idevice but possibly with the broadband provider (in my case Plusnet) so I contacted their customer support.
They referred me to the set up process shown below;
From your home screen press Settings.
From the setting menu, choose Mail, Contacts, Calendars followed by Add Account…
From the Add Account… menu choose Other.
Fill in your Full Name, Email Address, Password and Description and press Next.If you need help with these, there's more detail underneath the screenshot.
Full name: Enter your name (or the name you'd like people to see when you send them email)
Email Address: Enter the address you're setting up, this could be a Plusnet address ([email protected]) or a hosted domain address ([email protected])
Password: Enter the password for your email address (I don't know what this is)
Description: Enter a useful description of the email address you're setting up (e.g. Mum's email). You can put whatever you want here
Press Next to continue.
More settings will appear. Some will already be filled in.Enter the Incoming and Outgoing Mail Server details and press Next. If you need help with these, there's more detail underneath the screenshot.
IMAP/POP This will default to IMAP - it's up to you which one you want to use (I don't know what to choose)
Incoming Mail Server settings
Host Name: For IMAP this is imap.plus.net - for POP, this is mail.plus.net
User Name & Password: Enter the username and password for the email address you're setting up (I don't know what these are)
Outgoing Mail Server settings
Host Name: relay.plus.net
User Name & Password: These are optional, but if you want to send mail while on the move (e.g. while connected to mobile or wireless networks), we recommend filling these in.Enter the username and password for the email address you're setting up (I don't know what these are)
When you're finished, press Next.
If the box shown below appears, press Yes (you may need to do this twice).
After a minute or two, your email address will be set up and ready to use.If you chose IMAP when setting up you’ll be able to choose whether you want to use Notes (if you chose POP you’ll be taken back to the settings screen from step 2). Press Save when you’re done.
That's all you need to do. To start checking your email, go back to your home screen and press Mail.
Now I fully understand that it may be different for each broadband provider but the processes must be similar.
The key appears to be in setting up the outgoing message server settings in step 5. Where it says "optional, but if you want to send mail while on the move (e.g. while connected to mobile or wireless networks), we recommend filling these in.
http://www.plus.net/support/email/setup/ios-setup.shtml#pagetop
Where it says "we recommend" I think it should read "you must fill these in"
I went back to Settings - Mail,Contacts, Calenders - click on the offending account and click on the account shown.
Under OUTGOING MAIL SERVER click on the server, in my case relay.plus.net, and click again to show the details. make sure you enter your user name and password and after a few seconds the account will verify and show a load of ticks.
I tried this on my phone this morning while on 3G only. I sent an email to another of my addresses and immediately got the response that the message couldn't be sent as the recipient was rejected and the message had been placed in my Outbox. I followed the above steps and immediately heard the satisfying "whoosh" as my mail was sent. 10 seconds later another satisying beep as my e mail arrived at my alternate account.
Hope this helps anyone else with a similar problem.

More Apple Mail Issues

We have been using Apple Mail at our school for some time with few problems. We use it as the link to an outside POP3 service. Recently, as with so many other users, we have begun to have serious issues with crashing, loss of messages and issues with both sending and receiving at times. A new one has developed now. Disk Warrior was run recently and seemed to have had decent results. Upon closer inspection, it has apparently altered the modification dates of many user files and folders, as well as mail files (all to the same date: April 1, 1976). Now with mail, users are finding the message: 'The message from <[email protected]> concerning "(subject") has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it.' The account is already online. I'm not sure if this is a result of the Disk Warrior intervention, or if it is a continuation of Apple Mail issues, or both. Also, users click on one message, and another displays. If you scroll through your messages, continuous crashes occur, and sometimes all messages disappear. Fortunately, with our mail service (Gaggle), we can retrieve messages directly online.
The issues do not occur in Entourage, and I am testing a couple of other mail applications as well. So it is definitely an Apple Mail problem. I have tried many of the fixes I have seen in other posts, but with no success. Running Disk Utility or Tech Tool has no effect. Our solution for now is to just not use Apple Mail - which our users are use to.
I will be curious to see what solutions come out. This is a serious issue for many users.

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.
Mail Feedback
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.

MBA lion Mail issue: window disappears randomly

hello:
Having some MBA 13' mail issues:
1) mail window will disappear (only using cmd+0 shortcut will bring it back - or going to window>message viewer) randomly without any reason
2) starting up a new email or new note then closing this note or email will close the entire message viewer window...why?
3) emails deleted within the 'inbox' section will not delete in the Gmail section (setup as IMAP, with Gmail defaults)
I am a little concerned with 1 & 2 becuase these are huge user experience issues, it is the most frustrating thing to have to continually use the short cut to open up a window which should not have disappeared in the first place!!
any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hi Fred
I've got the same issue. It seems to happen randomly but so annoying when it does. Upgrading to Mountain Lion hasn't helped and I've changed my keyboard and reset all the short-cuts to the default settings and still it happens in Mail and Microsoft Outlook for Mac when I'm typing a mail.
Did you find a solution?
