Several Problems using email

OK, I have problems using the email both via the web and via my email client software.
iMac running Mac OS 10.7.5; Firefox web browser, Thunderbird email client.
First the web problems. I can save a draft message, but when I return to finish and send it, I can't either edit the draft nor send the draft. If I highlight a word in the draft and try to delete it, the entire draft is moved to the trash.
Now the email client software problems. I've set the client up using the server settings from Apple's KB article iCloud: Mail server settings for email clients However, iCloud rejects them as being invalid plus I'm told my password is wrong (the same password that works fine logging in via a web browser). Additionally, the Apple KB article says to use iCloud Preferences in Mac OS 10.7.4 and later but there isn't any place there that addresses the server settings.
Any help will be appreciated.

In Mail's Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors preference pane check to see how you have Sent configured.  Maybe change it, reboot and then change back to what you currently have.

  • Several problems with email

    I've been having several problems with email.  
    1. I sent email on Dec 10 and the people didn't receive them until Dec 16.
    2. I often get two, three or even four copies of the same email in my Thunderbird client.
    3. My Moto X (2nd gen) phone sometimes says it can't connect to email. 
    What's the problem?

    Thanks for reaching out to us JoAnn108. We'll do everything possible to address this for you.
    Could you tell me how long this has been an issue? I noticed you mentnioned Thunderbird; do you experience the same problems when working with your emails directly from the Verizon webmail portal? Also, are there any error messages you notice when the issue occurs? If we can get some answers to these questions it'll help determine our troubleshooting path.
    Thanks,

  • Problem using email to upload image files to Mobile Me gallery

    I will cross post this question to both Mail and Mobile Me discussion groups because I don't know where my problem lies.
    I have published a gallery page from iPhoto to my Mobile Me gallery. There are two ways to upload additional photos. I am not having trouble adding image files with the Upload feature. I cannot get the email function to work. The emails I send to the email address for the gallery bounce back to my mail inbox.
    Subject: Delivery Notification: Delivery has failed
    and in the body of the bounced email:
    Recipient address: [email protected]
    Reason: SMTP transmission failure has occurred

    One of the images I am trying to attach is a jpeg file of 61 kb.
    I have tried to drag the image from my desktop to the body of the email. I have tried using the "attach" function and selecting the file name. I am not sending any text with these files.
    When I built these albums, I checked and enabled all the options.
    I am having this same issue when I try to upload via email to any of my Mobile Me gallery pages.
    There is currently one photo displayed here:
    http://gallery.me.com/tplattenberger#100352
    If anyone wishes to try to upload to that gallery using email (Send to Album) that would be great and if successful, that might provide a clue to my problem.
    As I say, I currently have one photo there. If you find a lot more, please do not add.
    What's the problem?
    Tom

    The images I am trying are newly created and old.
    A weird hint perhaps...
    I just copied an image from Apple's home page and pasted it into the email and tried again...
    it worked.
    So I tried again, dragging from iPhoto and it did not work... the email bounced back.
    So I tried again, this time using copy and paste (like I did from Apple's page) from iPhoto... it did not work.

    My email address is a yahoo one. I am trying to use this on my phone without success. Has anyone any idea what I may be doing wrong?

    There has been a flood of posts here about Yahoo mail in the last few days. Apparently the Yahoo servers are having problems (again). Either contact Yahoo or wait it out.

  • Problems Using iPhone with Audi Bluetooth Kit

    I have several problems using the iPhone with the factory-installed bluetooth car kit that came with my '08 Audi A4.
    (1) I can not download my contacts from the iPhone to the car's built-in phone book. Thus, I can't see the names of incoming callers, as there is no way to enter text into the car's phone book.
    (2) I can not answer calls, or end calls, by pushing the correct button the on the steering wheel. So, after I initiate a call and finish the conversation, pushing the disconnect button has no effect. I have to push "end call" directly on the iPhone. When a call comes in, I can't answer by pushing the correct button on the wheel. I must answer call directly on the iPhone.
    Anyone else having these problems? Any suggestions for fixing this?

    firstly, we have an brand new A4, Audi have said they can pair some 3G phones and not pair some.
    Apple have refused to acknowledge the problem, but have now said their is a new update out this month which should address any problems.
    This would make sense as our friendly guy at audi said to me, the 3G phones he has paired and uploaded phone books for customers, he couldn't tell what version of the iphone3g they had, so if it was an earlier version it would pair, and the later versions won't.
    also, there is now a 3G cable for the ipod connection via MMi, which works perfectly !
    so while we can't get address books for now, it will come.
    the other work around is, take an old nokia/ecricsson phone, sync it to your mac and upload your contacts, then pair to audi, hey presto you have your mac contacts on the audi.

  • Huge problem using apple mail while sending email to a group...

    Hey - I am quite confused... apple mail has huge problems using groups with about 150 addresses when writing and sending an email... the writing of emails is nearly impossible. Once the group name is inserted in the addressline (address book in iCloud!), apple mail uses nearly 100% CPU and further writing is nearly impossible. When sending such an email, all addresses are suddenly visible - though the box is NOT checked and the addresses should be hidden... what can I do? I use this feature (sending mails to groups) on a daily basis and cannot accept visible addresses...
    Greetings and sorry for inconvenient english...
    Christof

    How about next time you send to the group, cc yourself, or include yourself in the group. Then receive the email on the iphone, you can "reply all" in order to send to the group. If you use an imap account, you can make a new folder, call it something like "groups", and save different group emails there for the next time you need to "reply all".

  • A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail.  When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name.

    A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail.  When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name.  I have gone to the window pop-down to 'previous recipients' and deleted that addressee as well as all the email addresses it is assigning to that name.  I have also deleted the account entirely from my address book.  I have have run repair permissions and also full defrag in iDefrag.  Still the problem persists.  Any suggestions?

    Hello CarolineLongEaton,
    I noticed you posted this problem quite a while ago and wondered if you managed to have it fixed in an alternative way then posting here. It is too bad no one has posted a solution here. I have a similar problem and if you have had yours solved since this occurance how you accomplished it may help me with mine. I am interested to know what you have done about yours.
    If you are interested in comparing the problems to see if your solution (if you have found one) might help me also then here is the link to the discussion.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6116927
    If your problem has not been solved then I will comment here again if/when my issue is resolved as it may help you too. My hope here is that we may help each other. To quote you "all ideas gratefuly recieved". I hope your problem was resolved, ernestly for your sake and selfishly for mine also. I wish you and yours a great day!

  • Severe problem with 'Drill to Related' using drill icon

    Hi
    I have a severe problem with 'Drill to Related' in Discoverer Plus (10.1.2.54.25) using the drill icon of a worksheet:
    1. Though existing no items to drill to are shown in the context menu (or pop-up list), instead it says just 'Drill to Related...'
    2. Clicking on menue item 'Drill to Related...' results in 50% processor load (permanent) and no further update of the browser window (IE 7.0.5730.11) containig Discoverer Plus. There is no recovery of that state within about 20 minutes.
    This behaviour is both highly reproducible and annoying.
    When using the drill dialog instead of the icon the expected items are shown and 'Drill to Related' works fine. Although that is a workaround I don't think it acceptable to tell the end-users to use it.
    I searched metalink for a hint but couldn't find anything.
    Can anyone help?
    Franziska

    Hi S
    This seems to be a bug that was fixed earlier since we didn't experience it having applied cumulative patch 3 earlier.
    Something might be said about your problem in Metalink
    Doc ID: Note:422575.1
    Subject: Drilling With Discoverer Viewer 10g (10.1.2) Using Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) Fails With Javascript Error
    We still had to apply the patch for the bug I mentioned earlier in this thread in order to be able to see and select an item to drill to. Unfortunately the problem with the processor load up to 50% and nothing happening is still there.
    By the way IE 7 is certified now according to the Oracle certification information.
    Hope this helps
    Franziska

  • Problem sending emails on a MacBook using a new BT...

    Can anyone help? I am using a Mac Mail on a MacBook running 10.6.8. We received a new hub from BT and I am no longer able to send emails from my email account using the hub. Wireless connections other than my own home hub work just fine, so I know there is a problem using the home hub.
    As you can imagine this is VERY frustrating. I have paid a technical support person £50 to look into this and we have no answers. I have spent an hour on the phone to BT help and got nowhere either. They could not understand that I was running Mail on a Mac and gave me instructions to diagnose the problem that were for PC users. They could not put me through to Mac specific help.
    I have read through lots of varied forum posts and have found out that it seems simply that BT hubs do not seem to like Apple products. My email is provided by 123-reg and I am using their webmail to send emails but am not happy to do this on a long term basis. I work both from home and elsewhere and am not a technical person so need a practical and straightforward answer to this problem. I am paying BT each month to use the hub and if I cannot I would like to stop paying asap.
    Can anyone help?

    Have you just moved to the Home Hub 3 or 4 after being on the Hub 2?  If so, I can provide a resolution for you.
    The issue is with the way the mac presents it's name to the router, it doesn't resolve properly on the router and as a result causes issues with email providers that use SSL.
    The easiest way to check if this is the issue is to go to the apple menu>system preferences>network.  Select wireless on the left hand side, then advanced in the bottom right corner.  Select DNS at the top of this screen.  Then press the + symbol in the bottom left corner and then type 8.8.8.8.  Hit apply, then close the network prederences box.  This will probably ask you to save the changes.  Hit save, or apply changes.
    Open mac mail and try and send a new email, should go fine.
    Now we have determined the issue, the fix is quick, but a couple of steps.  Go to spotlight in the top right corner of your screen and type terminal, select it from the list.  This will bring up a little screen where you can enter type written commands.  You need to type scutil --set HostName DavesImac  (for example).  then close terminal.
    Next step is to go back to apple menu>system preferences>sharing.  At the top of this screen it shows the name of your mac.  There is an edit button, hit that and then in the box on the next screen type in the same name as you typed on terminal (DavesImac in our example), then hit apply.
    Go back to system preferences, then select network.  Select wireless again and at the top it shows location.  Click on the up down arrow and then hit the + button and enter a new location, home for example, then select it.  Hit apply at the bottom of the screen.  Then hit advanced again and at the top select tcp/ip.  There should be a button on here Refresh DHCP lease.  Hit that and it will refresh your connection to the router.  CLose down all the screens, reopen mac mail and try and send an email, should go fine.

    a single iTunes can be authorized for up to five iTunes store accounts (Apple IDs). a library thusly set up will sync content purchased with any of the five Apple IDs to any device.
