Something changed - Mail Problem
All of the sudden all of the text in my incoming email has disappeared. The emails are received by the iphone, they appear in the mailbox as a new message, the preview (set at 3 lines) appears, but when the email is opened - NO message text. Everything else shows up (From, TO, CC etc.)
I have two email accounts - one is an Exchange account and the problem is appearing on both accounts.
Since this just happened today and I didn't change any settings, I at a lose to understand it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Paul
Problem happened to me starting last night, you say a reset of the phone works? I will give it a shot.

We've been running iTunes U for public and private content for several years.
Just in the last day or so, when we log in with our local credentials, a blank page pops up.
The person who set up the transfer script said something changed on Apple's end. Does anyone know if there was a change or is also having a problem?

Ithaca College.We are not seeing an issue accessing the Ithaca College site via transfer script on our end. In most cases, when a transfer script that had previously worked suddenly stops working, the time stamp for the credentials is outside of the 90 second window we are expecting. We would recommend appending the debug suffix to the credential to test the credential.

I have a problem sending mail via smtp. I use a satellite system and the average return time for a ping is 675ms. Is this a problem with mail? If so can I change Mail to accept it. The problem also exists with Lion and on both my MacPro and my wife's Imac. I also see my mailboxes randomly disconnecting and reconnecting. Any other ideas of a possible cause?
I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
Now all is working.
Thanks,

Gmail to Macmail - Has something changed in last 4 days?
I use Gmail for my mail. In the last 4 days Emails from one of my customers are coming into my MacMail with only the subject line showing up but the body of the email is blank except for the company logo. These emails have been showing up fine for the last 3 years. If I go directly to my Gmail acount the message is there with all the information. Has something change? I have contacted the customer and nothing has changed on their end and since it shows up in Gmail I would think it is on Macmail's end. Has anyone else had this issue?

Need Some Brain Storming Help WIth a Long Distance Mail Problem
I would really appreciate anyones input on this...
Here's the situation. I'm trying to solve a mail problem for my somewhat elderly Mother. The biggest problem is that she is 3800 miles away from me and nowhere near any sort of help or tech support (Rural Alaska) so I'm trying to sort this out over the phone.
Anyway, she somehow screwed up her mail. All of a sudden the mail she sends comes from MY account! It shows up in my mailbox as having been sent by me. She is using an iBook G4 that I gave her a year or so ago and I suppose it's possible that somehow my mail account was on there somewhere (?). It's like she accidentally switched users or something.
I have sent her Email to her normal .Mac email address and it does indeed show up in her mailbox when I check the web mail. She is running Tiger and I'm running Leopard.
I just can't for the life of me figure out what she would have done and I'm hoping that someone might have an idea. She says that the font sizes all changed as well which leads me to believe that she is indeed using my old settings and mail account.
Once again, any help really appreciated. I'm heading out of town for a week and she really depends on her email. I'm trying desperately to get this solved before I leave. Thanks!It looks like Mail has reset its preferences, including the account settings. What follows is a more thorough explanation that should allow you to determine whether that’s really what happened and what your options would be in that case. I’ll provide the full instructions I usually provide to solve this problem when having direct access to the computer, even though you may find some of them not practical or unnecessary.
Under some circumstances (e.g. lack of available disk space, filesystem corruption, repeated crashes), Mail may discard the current ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist preferences file and create a new one. This file is where all the account settings are stored. As a result, all the non-.Mac account settings are lost. If you have a .Mac account, however, that account would appear to have been preserved because Mail would set it up automatically using the System Preferences > .Mac settings — but may result in a different .Mac account being automatically set up if for some reason the System Preferences > .Mac settings differ from what until then were the Mail account settings...
What’s the capacity and space available on the startup disk? Take a look at the comments about disk space in the following article, in case they apply to this case:
Problems from insufficient RAM and free hard disk space
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what’s it all about?
After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, and ensuring that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), quit Mail if it’s running, and make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder (e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down), just in case something else goes wrong while trying to solve the problem. This folder is where all your mail is stored.
There are at least three ways to restore the account settings:
(1) Restore ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist from a backup if you have one. Mail shouldn’t be running while you do this.
(2) Set up your mail accounts again (you may want to quit Mail and trash the new com.apple.mail.plist first to start over). If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in ~/Library/Mail/ when done. You’ll also have to re-configure some of the Mail > Preferences settings. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
(3) Mail may have renamed the old preferences file to com.apple.mail.plist.saved. If that’s the case, you may try trashing the new com.apple.mail.plist and renaming the old com.apple.mail.plist.saved back to com.apple.mail.plist. Again, be sure Mail isn’t running while doing this. Given the circumstances, there exists the possibility that com.apple.mail.plist.saved became corrupt, but that often is not the case and the settings can usually be restored by just renaming the file back to com.apple.mail.plist.
As a side effect of re-creating com.apple.mail.plist, Mail might rename Outbox (which is where messages waiting to be sent are stored) to Delivered. The name of that mailbox is actually a misnomer, as it would contain messages (if any) that couldn’t be delivered for some reason. You can delete that mailbox if you wish.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library. -
Now getting FaceTime failed message when trying to connect with a person that were connecting successfully with up unto two weeks ago, has something changed?
Take a look around you here in this forum. Many people are talking about having problems using FaceTime. A few users claim to have contacted Apple and Apple says that they are aware of an issue with FaceTime and that they are working on it.
Some users claim that upgrading to iOS 7 solved there problem with FaceTime. Take a look around the forum and read some of the other discussions. -
I use lightroom with the soft proofing feature for my printing. I used to make a copy proof, but all of the sudden something changed, and even if I'm on the copy in the developing mode it prints the original. Also, If i chose a file that was already in light room to print, even though I have the chosen file up in the developing mode, it will instead print the most recent file that I added to lightroom. If found a way to work around these problems, (check make this the copy in the soft proofing, and copy my settings and delete and reload the old files) but it's a slight hassle and it didn't use to do this. Not sure why it changed. Could I have accidentally changed a setting?

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

What a disaster. I've written about my mail problems before with mail before and I know what I managed to do this time is my fault, its something "I" don't understand about mail. But man am I screwed.
I use my imac 98% of the time and I get 100% of my email on it (mobileme, concast, gmail). All works fine.
A week ago I have an emergency appendix surgery and am doing rather poorly so I'm in bed on my macbook air. I need to get my email on that computer. I enable the email accounts so I can get all my "new" mail. Ugh, it starts syncing and bingo 2 weeks worth of mail on my imac is gone. No where to be found. Tons of work mail, important mail, lordy this is a mess.
I know it had something to do with syncing.. the only account that is imap is my mobileme but I lost a ton of mail in that and its not on either computer or on the mobile me page either. It's just gone. And so is the gmail on the imac and again that isn't imap its a pop account and it was mail that was not in my inbox, I had received it weeks ago and put it in other mail boxes I created (like the work folder). And it just is all gone.
IF anyone can shed some light on what I did and how to avoid this, I'd love that. Should I have just gone to the websites to check the mail (gmail site, comcast.net, mobileme site?)
I am really in trouble with this email thing I lost stuff that I can't recreate. What a huge huge mess.
thanks for any insight,
SusanThe issue....just resolved itself! I have not a clue how this happened...

While launching Mail, I clicked on Safari, to check something while Mail got new emails, but now Mail appears on the same screen as Safari. Is there a way I can return it to it's own screen, please?
I haven't changed any prefs, only clicked Safari as mail was being launched.Sorry... Apple IDs cannot be merged...
I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

Hi all, (Mac Mail 1.3.11 (v622) ) OSX10.3.9
i've been having some major mac Mail problems for a while now, with no clear understanding on how to resolve them. It may be the case that i am managing my mail all wrong, so any correctional advice would be welcome too.
I receive a lot of graphics pic files through from work as well as sending them, so for me it is relatively important that i keep a lot of the emails over the past 6 months to a year on my machine. When i say a lot it might only actually be a 3mb jpeg pic a day.
Anyway, a while ago i started to get this message come up when tried to access new email
"...The message from "Mr X" <[email protected]> concerning “Emailing: xxxx.jpg ” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
This seemed to happen for a lot of the emails, even ones that didn't have any attatchments to them. I posted here a good while ago about it, and discovered from someone else that quitting mac Mail, and then opening it again at the email that you just quit from, would open the particualr email you wished to see!!!!!
I've been doing this process for a while now, but find it to be very irritating. Over the period of this problem, i have wiped my machine, and reinstalled OSX, hoping that it would sort this out, but with no luck.
Now i have to admit, that i don't really understand the whole mail server thing. I would have thought that any past mail i download is then stored onto my mac, enabling me to access it any time, so long as it is there in my mailbox. Also, i have backed up mailboxes, a few times, but agin this dis not seem to solve the problem.
Today, the Mail decided to do it's own backup process, so i left it to it. It cleared my mailbox and left my with 300 random emails left. I needed to access some of the past few weeks emails, so then had to re-import the backup mailbox containing something ridiculous like 7000 emails!
when i click on one of them, it requires that i "You need to take this account online in order to download it." but then i quit the application and then open it again, and it's there!!!
If anyone can help me with this i'd be most grateful as it's driving me up the wall! Even some helpfull tips in maintaining a healthy mailbox would be welcome.
Thanks
AstroBhoyThis incorrect error message indicates an "overstuffed" mailbox issue which means the mailbox has approached or exceeded the recommended size limit or has some corruption.
All email clients have limits and the recommended mailbox size limit for Jaguar and Panther Mail is 1 GB and for Tiger Mail, 2 GB. This problem is much more common with Jaguar and Panther Mail and has all but been eliminated with Tiger Mail which uses a significantly different mbox filing structure for each mailbox.
An "overstuffed" mailbox issue can occur at any mailbox size with Jaguar or Panther Mail but is more likely to occur depending on the number and size of message attachments contained in a mailbox and especially as a mailbox approaches or exceeds 1 GB in size.
Since you regularly receive and send a lot of graphic file attachments, you should utilize user created "On My Mac" location mailboxes to sort received and sent messages by category. This can be done on a monthly basis with the emphasis on not allowing a mailbox to approach or exceed anywhere near 1 GB in size and it is also a good idea to use the Rebuild Mailbox function on the most active mailboxes on a regular basis - once a month or so depending on activity.
Before upgrading to Tiger, I didn't allow any mailbox to exceed 500 MB or so in size and used the Rebuild Mailboxes function on the most active mailboxes once a month or so and never experienced this problem.
Regarding the problem with this account's Inbox mailbox, quit Mail first and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > INBOX.mbox.
Move the INBOX.mbox to the Desktop.
When re-launching Mail, a new and empty INBOX.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the account named folder. This will allow the Mail.app to function properly again with this mailbox and not risk losing any new messages received with this account while working on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop to recover the existing messages.
Control-click on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop and at the menu window that appears, select Show Package Contents.
List the package content file names and size of each providing this information here. This information is required to determine the next steps to take to recover the existing messages. -
Having mail problems after updating to 10.9.2 using Mac mail with AOL....
Most everything I compose is being saved as a draft. Sometimes several copies of the same mail.
When I put mail in the trash and delete them, they come back with up to 20 duplicates of the same message.
Anyone know of a fix for this?
Thanks.After 9 months with the macbook pro and no problems watsoever, my AOL mail suddenly started having problems but not on my iPad or iPhone. There's no doubt that the problem was intitated by a change made by Apple to the software on my computer. As others have noted files with the email settings get scrambled.
The symptoms come and go, sometimes closing the mail program and rebooting will cure the probems. Apple recommends waiting 10 minutes , are you nuts? Trip (with appointment ) to Santa Monica Apple store and the tech was less than helpful , struggling under Apple's work two customers for their allotted 15 min.
Sorry for ranting in tech space but one of the benefits of paying the premium for Apple products is that they work. Apple we have a problem here, but you have a far larger problem ..... as a iPhone, iPad, MacBook and Apple stock owner I see the handwriting on the wall....
