Still problems with Gmail notifications in Mail

I've looked everywhere online and I can't seem to get an answer! I use Gmail within my Mail app (Mac). I have 2 accounts. On 1 of the accounts, I get notifications and the badge app icon shows the amount of unread messages. For emails through the other account, I get nothing. All the settings are the same for both accounts; i've tried mailbox rebuilds; Turning notifications on and off; Installing the Mail update again...and nothing is working. Any ideas??

You might have luck in the Mavericks community. I’ll ask the hosts to move your post there.

A different sort of problem with GMail IMAP on Mail.app (Tiger)

I setup my GMail account using IMAP under Mail.app (Tiger). At first it worked fine. But now it just hangs when I go to the Inbox. I get the clock or pie or whatever that is next to Inbox. In the Activity Monitor I see...
[[email protected]] Performing pended
Copying Message
[INBOX - [email protected]] Opening mailbox...
Opening mailbox...
I have let these sit for hours (we're talking over 12) and it gets nowhere. I have removed the account, deleted the associated files under ~/Library, recreated and it just comes back. I can use Thunderbird without any problems at all.
Any ideas what might have happened? I did uncheck saving drafts, trash, and junk on server as Google suggests.

Try this to determine the scope of the problem:
1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts and create a new user account for testing purposes.
2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
3. Log in as the newly created user and set up the Gmail IMAP account there.
4. Check whether the problem also happens when logged in as another user.
<hr>
Do you have any Mail plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Mail? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/StartupItems/
/Library/LaunchDaemons/
/Library/LaunchAgents/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/LaunchAgents/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
ls -1 /Library/StartupItems /Library/LaunchDaemons /Library/LaunchAgents /Library/InputManagers /Library/Mail/Bundles ~/Library/LaunchAgents ~/Library/InputManagers ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

Serious Problems with Gmail after update Mail

After updating to Mavericks a couple of days ago, Mail is really acting unstable.
Today, all my mail in (IMAP) Google Mail account is moved to the Archive folder without any confirmation by me!
Right now I've set the account disabled and in Google Mail, I moved all the mail from the archive-folder back to the Inbox.
I use the Google Mail also as an archive. It is really making me concerned about the safety of my mail when using Apple's Mail.
I also had troubles with my iCloud mail (not available a few times this week).
Hope Apple has a good answer.

I wish you could go back. My iPad just crashed and burned. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING is gone. I had to do a restore od the whole thing, and now none of my apps are installed. Every photo I added after the beginning of August is gone! iBooks are no longer even listed that I used to have on it. Progress in games is lost, and I had sorted games by ones I had purchased but not yet played, ones I had finished but wanted to keep local and ones that were only partly played. These were all in separate groups. All that sorting is now gone. I will now have days of work ahead downloading them all and trying to figure out what is what, if I can!
I no longer have any faith in Apple. How they can release such a bug laden OS onto us is beyond me!

Yosemite Mail still has sync problems with Gmail - any solutions?

I notice that Yosemite Mail still has sync problems with Gmail. After running for some hours, I noticed there were 6 emails in my Gmail account that had not synced over the past hour.
In the meanwhile, for safety's sake (don't want to miss emails!) I'm back to Mailplane. But I wonder if anybody knows of a solution to this long term problem first introduced in Mavericks. Works fine in iOS Mail though.
Thanks,
doug

I don't think we'll ever have a "best of both worlds" Doug. I've used Gmail since the week it launched the first beta in 2004, and it's always been a bit of a love-hate relationship for me (mostly love). With the demise of the Google Notifier for Mac, I went with Mailplane, but even it has problems. Like when I see my iPhone update with new mail and I'm looking at Mailplane and it won't update at times with even a forced refresh. I often have to close/reopen it to see new messages. But, it's hard to live without my Google Calendar only a tab click away, one of the primary reasons I use Mailplane, that plus changing view zoom sticks with Mailplane and won't with Gmail.
For years I've thought Gmail labels were the perfect filing solution, but over the past few weeks I've been analyzing just how much I really use that feature, and for me...it's not all that much. I think I could simplify my life by putting everything into appropriate folders (as in all other email apps). Apple doesn't realize just how much money they're losing by not allowing people to use private domains with iCloud mail...which I would do in a heartbeat just because it would work perfectly with Mail.app. I would pay even more than I currently pay Google for this solution with Google Apps Business. So, I'm actually on the verge of moving my private domain to the best email service I can find and then using it with Mail.app. The problem here, of course, is I'll lose the best spam control on the planet (Gmail). So, as you say, there simply is not a "best" solution for all these things. I'll at least try a new email service first with some other domain to see how I like it before moving my primary email.
Lastly, the other thing that incenses me is synching of flags between iOS and Apple Mail. It works fine between Gmail and iOS Mail, since all I care about is whether a message is starred/flagged or not. But using Apple Mail, when I flag a message it will not show as flagged in their own iOS Mail, which is incomprehensible, given they built both apps.
If you find a great solution or discover anything new...please post it here, Doug. Thanks.

Having problem with gmail smtp server. Since going to google 2-step, and entering 16-digit code in gmail account, I can receive mail on my iMac, but cannot send. What do I do?

Having problem with gmail smtp outgoing server. Since going to google 2-step, and entering 16-digit code in gmail account, I can receive mail on my iMac, but cannot send. I keep getting an error message that Mail "Cannot send message using Gmail (my assigned name) server." What do I do?

Confirm you did this: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en
You might also try removing all gmail passwords from your keychain in Keychain Access. Then connect again and enter the password code given by Google.

I have an Ipad 2 and are having problems sending out emails in one of my email address. I always get a message reading the email was not sent because the server does not allow relaying. This is an email account POP3. I have no such problem with gmail.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

Still problems with Apple id and emails after move to iCloud

Hi,
After move from MobileMe to iCloud, there are still problems with apple id's and emails.
I'm trying to delete a mail (email1) from one apple id, but nothing happens?
And when i'm trying to add a email (email2), that i Know isn't linked to another apple id, i get the message that it is already in use with another apple id?
It's a problem when you use these emails with facetime, imessage etc ...

My iPhone 5 and 4 both are having no trouble connecting to the Apple store, but my iPad (4th Gen) cannot either connect to Apple store, nor stream music using iTunes Radio. Keeps asking for my Apple ID and password. When I put it in, it says that I cannot connect. If I put it in wrong, it tells me its wrong. Tried changing my password on my desktop PC. The iPhones handled change and continued to connect, but iPad is unable to connect still.
Any solutions would be appreciated.

I can't send emails from Mail. I have three different accounts set up and have the same problem with all. The mail just sits in my outbox. All worked fine until Yosemite upgrade. Recent update has not fixed problem.

I have been experiencing the same problem. My mail app won't even open on my Late 2011 Macbook Pro. It will show as open, but the app will never actually show up.

Still problems with ID changing in Teaming 2.1?

Hi,
They are still problems with changing the ID from user in the eDIR when they are
will synchronized with the Teaming system?
In the past it was a very bad thing if the user name (ID) was a shortened form the
name of the user e.g. ssmith for Sarah Smith.
When "our" Sarah has married and her new name was e.g. Sarah Stone, new user ID is
sstone, the Teaming system can't "realize" that ssmith and sstone are the same user.
Is this problem fixed in the version 2.1?
THX
Andre

Hi,
A opened a request by Novell and get the answer that all is still the same since version 1.x.
Maybe this behavior will change in the version 4.x.
It's really sad that Teaming can't handle changed IDs.... really sad....
Than we have two ways... first, we change all our IDs to IDs with digits like 1234 or the second way... we use
SharePoint.... really sad.....
I'm wonder me that we are the only firm with such problem....

Hi everyone, I have problems with the notification, in a few app I don't see the red circle even when I do have notifications in it.

You'll get no solution until you say what the problem is, rather than just ranting. "Software breakdown" down is as meaningful as "car won't go".
If you read the terms and conditions that you agreed to in order to post here, you would know that Apple is not "our company". Nobody here works for Apple, we are users that voluntarily try to help, so raving at us is valueless.

I'm having problems with facebook notifications. The sound doesn't work but shows up in banner. Any suggestions? I've tried everything but restoring. Is it a phone problem or an app problem?

I am having a problem with facebook notifications. The sound doesn't work but appears as a banner. I've tried everything but restoring the phone. Is this a phone problem or an app problem? Has anybody experienced this problem and were they able to correct it?

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

Problems with attached documents in Mail and Docs To Go

Hello everybody.
I've found a problem with attached documents in Mail. In fact, if I click on attached documents with .doc (microsoft office word 97-2004) and files in .docx Office Open .xml, the iPad doesn't open them, also if I click in "Open with Docs To Go (which should support these files' format)".
How can I do? There's an application or another way to open these files?
Other Informations:
Docs To Go version: 5.2.2

Update the patch to the Sapgui.
Regards,
Ignacio.

Problem with gmail account on iPhone

I didn't know if anyone else is having problems with gmail or not. I have other accounts setup on iPhone, and I'm not having any problems with them. When I try to access my gmail my phone is freezing up. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8725114&#8725114
I periodically get a freeze of either my iPhone or VZW Treo when it hangs getting Gmail. Most of the time, it works without a hitch - other times, access to Gmail is a PITA, and once in a while, it's hanging my phones up.
I've had Gmail go sideways on me a few times, buddies of mine say they're having no problems at the same time. Once in awhile, they'll call me to ask if I'm having problems (I'm not) but they can't get their messages for hours. Go figure. YMMV.

Problems with Gmail in Firefox version 20.0.1.

I never had any problems with Gmail before this version. Now when I want to compose a new message the compose window and home page will turn into an empty white browser window. It is titled as if it were the inbox, but there are no links or words appearing in the window. I cannot type in this window either. So I am unable to send email from my desktop.
Also, I can only read new messages. When I try to read older messages I'd saved for information purposes, I can no longer open those.

Google has been tinkering with the design of Gmail lately, which raises the possibility that Firefox may be mismatching old cached files with new ones, or sending the site cookies that correspond to an older design.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove your google.com cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
That will open a dialog where you can remove the individual cookies.
Then try reloading the page and logging in again. Does that help?
