Setting up Mac for BT and old Talktalk mail

We changed from talktalk to BT today and I want to set up Mac mail to receive both my mail from my old provider talktalk and also a new bt email address which I set up this morning (and hasn't yet worked....)
As I need to receive mail from my old talktalk.net address until everyone has the new BT mail, I need both accounts on my mac mail. I am able to receive mail on my talktalk address but cannot send using this address/server, it says "cannot send mail using the server talktalk". It won't connect using the bt server either?
Can anyone let me know how I receive emails from both, but send using BT and why this isn't working for me (unable to send mail).
I'm aware I may sound like a complete techno idiot here, but hoping its a simple fix!
Many thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Presumably as you are no longer with Talk Talk, you no longer have an account on their outgoing mail server. You need to send via the BT SMTP mail server but you need a BTinternet address to authenticate with. I am not familiar with Mac Mail so don't know the details of how to accomplish that but you need to configure the outgoing server with the following details.
Server mail.btinternet.com
Port 465
SSL Yes
User name your full [email protected] email address
Password your Btinternet.com password
Authenticate plain password
The BT account will be the same details as above for outgoing, for incoming use port 993 and SSL for IMAP or 995 and SSL for POP3.

I have a new Mac Pro. I want to use my old Mac Pro as a storage drive for photos and old documents, linked to my new Mac Pro. How do I set up the old computer?

I have a new Mac Pro. I want to use my old Mac Pro as a storage drive for photos and old documents, linked to my new Mac Pro. How do I set up the old computer? Both computers have OS X10.9.3. Currently they are connected by a Firewire 800 cable.

You certainly could keep the old Mac Pro in Firewire mode (hold down the T key on its keyboard as you boot) to show its drives on the new MP. This is basically as fast as putting the drives into a Firewire enclosure.
Or you could boot it normally and share its files over the network using the Sharing panel of System Preferences. If you turn on both File and Screen Sharing, you don't even need to have a monitor attached - you can do all administration using screen sharing. However, this method requires that you open all files over the network, which will be slower than the direct-connect method above, and may also not work with all applications.

For printer LaserJet Professional CM1410 any chance to set printing password for windows and MAC

Dear All
for printer LaserJet Professional CM1410 any chance to set printing password for windows and MAC?please help?

What Windows OS are you using? Are you networked?
If you are networked, you have to setup your file and print sharing options in order to require password assess. If you are just trying to control specific files from being printed, you can do that, too.
If you are just trying to control the amount of printing off of a single PC with a printer, you could setup different accounts for each user and limit their access.
Some of the commercial printers can have password options, but I do not find any password options for the CM 1410, other than what I provided earlier.
If I have been helpful, a Kudo is always appreciated.

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store.

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store. I have already had to have a technician to look at it and really couldn't figure out what the deal was. I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software. This machine is only 4 weeks old and I am using 37 g on a 1 T hard drive. There is no reason for it to be locking up. Also, when I try to use the help program, it always tells me that I am not connected to the internet even though I have used both the mail program and the browser with no problem just before that. I successfully used the help program on my pc lots of times. I did not need a $2000. plus machine to just get email. I just wanted to unload on somebody that might understand my pain and after checking out this site...I think there is a few of you out there.

The apps downloaded from the Mac App Store are written by third party developers, not Apple. If you have problems with those apps you need to visit the support area for their websites. Launch the App Store, locate the app name. You should see a support link.

Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.helpviewer.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try the Help menu.
If you need help finding that file, hold down the Finder icon in the Dock then click: New Finder Window. From the menu bar top of your screen click: Go > Go to Folder. Type this in exactly as you see it here: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist That will take you right to that file.
(.plist) files stores information about a particular app or in this case, the Help viewer. Often times deleting the .plist file resolves the issue.
It's fine to "unload"... we understand that you expect your iMac to be stable but there are times when things go awry. That's why we have these forums so that you can you get help.

HT201328 I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first or set one up for her and then unlock the phone.

I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first ( I now have a new iphone on this account) or set one up for her and then unlock the phone. I am worried about upsetting the new phone.

I would complete unlocking as is and then
restore as new once you know the iPhone is unlocked
Be aware Orange will process the request at their speed
one of the reasons they usually reside at bottom of User Sat surveys
will likely take weeks

I see that many people have already complained about Itunes' backup encryption. I NEVER set a password for it (and the corresponding option is still unticked, as always) yet it asked me for a pwd when I upgraded my 3GS to the 5.0 OS. How to solve this?

To prevent others from reading your mail, don't give them access to your account. If others need to use your computer for some reason, set up personal accounts, or a guest account, and switch to it before allowing them access. This is the simplest, and most effective, method.
Email message files can be read as plain text in TextEdit or any word processor.
To protect your email messages from being viewed by others while in your account, you would have to lock the folder, putting it into an encrypted disk image that required a password to be opened and mounted. You would have to double-click on the image and give your password to mount it before launching Mail then unmount it as soon as you're done. My guess is that you could replace the ~/Library/Mail folder with an alias pointing to the folder on the disk image.
It may work, but it seems like a lot of unnecessary hassle.

HT6114 camera is not working in my mac for skype and facetime

camera is nt working in my mac for skype and facetime calls.there is no option for camera also in my mac...

• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (the "reset" suggested there
   often restores normal function,) continue with the following.
• Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
   download and apply the latest Combo Update. For your
   Mac OS X (10.7.5), the latest Combo is http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera. For hardware help, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

How to fill up set up tables for 2lis_03_UM and BF?

Hi,
I am working on Material movements, and i have a How to do document. According to that, its showing me to fill up set up table for 2Lis_03_bf by using TCode OLI1BW, and in the very next step its again telling me to fill up set up table for UM, by using the same TCODE ( OLI1BW ) .
Now, if i do that, how would the system know that it has to fill up set up table for BF and then UM ? , no where in the screen its asking to fill up the Data source.
OR i just have to fill up set up table ONCE, and it will fill up for both the DS ?
please help.
thanks

Hi,
I think you can follow the same procedure. After completion of setup table filling you can check the result in RSA3.
In case of UM, you will have the provision to load data based on specific Company codes, but if you don't have any such requirement then you can simply fill setup tables.

Durgesh.

After an update to firefox I keep getting a warning from my Firewall (McAfee) "Program wants internet access". I have permission set at outgoing for firefox and updates checking off, to check that request is valid so what does it need access for

This was not a Firefox update, but a piece of malicious software you have inadvertently downloaded from a site called http://ffftp.co.cc/ which is impersonating Firefox. I discovered this as soon as my Zonealarm requested permission for "Golds" to access the internet. Golds??!! However I couldn't find a file with this name installed on my computer.
You should delete the file you downloaded and certainly do not allow internet access to any suspicious program. If you have already given permission, scan your PC immediately for any virus, malware, etc. Best of luck.

JoBautista,
you still have the option (before your warranty expires) of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan, which will provide an additional two years of coverage. Once your warranty expires, you will no longer have the option of purchasing AppleCare.

I have my mail set to retrieve data manually. When I retrieve mail, I get a popup box for each and every e-mail message asking if I want to view or cancel and must either view or cancel each one before I can use other apps on the ipad. How can I turn these popups off?

Try reset iPad (not Restore)
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

I cannot open my new and old e-mail

I seem to have lost the ability to open new and old e-mail.I click on the individual e-mail and it does not display anything.

The VIP list is where google add those emails from people you email the most, it's a pain as I've missed emails because they've been in that folder.
Can you send using the new password on other devices? You could try deleting the account on the phone & set it up again.

How to set up icloud for family and one itunes account

I just got a new disk drive in my MACbook (now upgraded to Mountain Lion) so starting from scratch with itunes. With 4 IOS devices in the family and only one itunes account, I would like to figure out how to backup every device to itunes. I was able to save old itunes data on a jump drive, but did not have a Time Machine backup so I am literally starting from scratch and want to do it right.
I need to get data from IOS devices to itunes(via ICLOUD?) before I hook up device to "new" disk drive on MAC.
I am scared I will loose the data on the devices when I hook them up to the new Mac. Any help would be appreciated...
Can we each have separate Icloud IDs and still have one Apple ID we use for Itunes account?

"Can we each have separate Icloud IDs and still have one Apple ID we use for Itunes account?"
Yes, that's the suggested way of doing it.
As for starting from scratch - you need to decide which Apple ID to use for the mac. If each member of the family uses the mac, then set up a seperate account for each and use the Apple ID (the one used for iCloud) to sign into icloud. Use the common ID for itunes purchases. I'd suggest first syncing devices to icloud to get whatever data is important (contacts, events, ...) saved. When on the mac you connect to an iCloud account, the data (just synced from a device) will come down to the mac (for that account).
Tell us what "data" you want to get to the new Mac?

Setting up ESS for Training and Event Mgmt

Hello to all SAP HR experts,
i am now doing a project on SAP ERP HCM and would like to learn more about the things and steps i need to do to come up with a ESS for Training and Event Management. I have an account for SAP Netweaver and able to access Enterprise Portal (EP). Do i require to navigate in EP to use the items there or do i need to set up an adobe interactive form using SAP Netweaver Developer Studio, design the flow at Visual Studio(VC), then link all the VC at Guided Procedure? If that's the case how am going to extract the data which i have configured in the IMG path under Training and event mgmt (TEM) and also SAP Learning Solution(LSO)?
For an example: I have created Training Event Groups, Training Event Types and Courses. If i want to so a paperless ESS, how can i extract all this into the fields which i have designed in my adobe interactive form.
Please help me and guide me along
Thank you in advance:)
Regards,
Jenny

Hi
There are 2 end user possibilities for Learning
One is PV7I and PV8I ITS services which are part of an old ESS role and can be used as integrated ITS versions
any ESS role via HpF or called directly via URL (without a Portal) - this will allow users to book course and events and view/change bookings etc
The other is Business Package for Learning 1.0 which requires a Portal (and other LSO dependancies to run)
this provides a wider range of Learning based activities including booking etc
Best wishes
Stuart
