TS3276 I have an OS X 10.6.8  AND until this week mail was operating well.

Mail will no longer hold my password and now the only way I can get it is to go to Web Mail at my internet provider's web-site.  Any suggestions?

Try this link.  I will walk you through were you need to go to verify you have all your enered into you "email account" in mail.  This should help.

  • Hot mail is not working after firefox upgrade. I am using Firefox 12.0. I did not have issue with hotmail, but I am facing problem this week .

    I am using Firefox 12.0. I did not have issue with hotmail, but I am facing problem this week after firefox upgrade. After entering login the page freeze. I am not able to continue.
    I reviewed the thread. I am not using Foxit.
    I reviewed hot mail forum. They suggest firefox upgrade causes this issue.
    I tried after clearing my browser's cache and cookies. The situation remain same. Any idea?
    What is the workaround?

    Firefox 3.6 needs the Java Second Generation Plugin which comes with newer versions than 1.6.0_03 - update Java, the latest version is 1.6.0_22

  • I have purchased music from itunes on my iphone and it won't show up in my Ipod music library on my phone.  It shows up in my itunes library on my computer.  This is a recent glitch as up until this week purchased music downloads fine on phone.

    I purchased music on itunes on my iphone and the songs won't show up in my music library on the phone.  They are on my computer itunes library but it won't let me transfer the purchases back to my phone (which I have never had to do before).  Never had this problem before this week when purchasing music on my iphone.
    My Itunes library on my laptop is slightly different from my Iphone library so I don't want to erase and sync the entire library.

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • I have a iMac destop 10.6.2 and use the AOL Mail web site with your Firefox Browser. It has worked great for years. I update the firefox to 6.1 and now I cannot send images using the Firefox browser. With Safari browser it works fine.

    I use AOL mail - http://www.aol.com/ with my Firefox 6.1 browser. Before updating aol mail worked great with firefox for years. Now when I try to send ( upload) messages with a file or images I always get the reading " there was a technical problem and I should try again". Messages with NO files or images go through just fine. I have cleared the Firefox history, the cache and cookies and the problem remained the same. The question is does this problem have something to do with the latest update ? AOL are still only familar with the 3.6 Firefox versions. Thanks

    Well I guess I was too optimistic. Since last posting I have had three hang events, one during reboot. When the login dialog box came up I clicked on it and it hung.
    However I do have a new data point. I have enabled the remote login (sshd). I have discovered that when the system hangs like I described above, I can still log in via SSH from my Windows system. The shell appears normal, but when I tried a "killall Safari" command the OS crashed hard. After a hard reset, the system hung during the login process. Again I could login remotely, and that time I executed a "sudo reboot" via the remote session. That cleared the display to all-blue but did not successfully reboot.
    Can anyone suggest what to try via the remote login to help diagnose what is happening? I am familiar with typical Linux architecture but the differences in Mac OS X are leaving me a bit disoriented.

  • I tried to sync my phone and received this message: "iTunes was unable to load data class info from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." Now it doesn't sync calendars because it says I need to download Outlook, which I already have

    I have synced my phone to my computer several times. This time i received this message: "iTunes was unable to load data class infor from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." It says if I want to sync calendar I must install Outlook to my computer?? Why does iTunes not recongnize that I already have Outlook installed on my computer?

    This worked for me...i did a restore on my computer to take it to a date prior to the last update i did on itunes and now it works just fine.  Everytime i do a backup it syncs my Outlook! When a request comes up saying there's a new version of itunes click here to download the latest one DON'T do it.
    Here's how to do a restore on your computer:
    Create a restore point
    A restore point is a representation of a stored state of your computer's system files. You can use a restore point to restore your computer's system files to an earlier point in time. Restore points are automatically created by System Restore weekly and when System Restore detects the beginning of a change to your computer, such as when you install a program or a driver.
    System image backups stored on hard disks can also be used for System Restore, just like the restore points created by system protection. Even though system image backups contain both your system files and personal data, your data files won't be affected by System Restore. For more information about system images, see What is a system image? You can create a restore point manually at any time by following the steps below.
    Go to the Windows website to watch the video. (1:08)
      Click to open System. 
    In the left pane, click System protection. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    Click the System Protection tab, and then click Create.
    In the System Protection dialog box, type a description, and then click Create.
    For more information about System Restore, see What is System Restore?
    I HOPE THIS WORKS!

  • I need to use my iMac to run some Windows software and was thinking of using Parallels Desktop 9 to help with this. Do you still have to partition your drive with Parallels and does this leave you open to viruses?

    I need to use my iMac to run some Windows software not available for Mac and was thinking of obtaining Parrallels Desktop 9 to help with this. If I use Parrallels do you still have to partitian your drive and does this leave you open to viruses?

    You do not have to partition your drive - Parallels creates a disk image which contains your Windows installation. You do have to exercise anti-virus measures in the Windows partition, although such malware cannot affect the Mac filesystem.

  • Using the icons on the bottom of my iPad mini screen I have always been able to check email and surf the net using Safari as well as storing all my photographs.  Suddenly these boxes are empty and I cannot do anything and seem to have lost all of my photo

    I have owned my iPad Mini for 9 months now and am still a novice great granny!  Today I cannot use Safari as it has just gone blank. I cannot retrieve emails, again the screen is blank and all my photographs have disappeared.  Can anyone help me to retrieve this.

    Reset your iPad and see if that fixes this.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I have a macbook pro with Lion OS and am using Mac mail.  How do I attach documents as attachments instead of coming up in the body of the email?

    How do I attach a file to mac mail without it going into the body of the email?

    To add to what Kappy said, note that you really can't control how some other mail client might display an attachment.  Some may display them inline, while others may require them to be opened separately.  And different people have different desires in this area...  some want a PDF file, for example, displayed inline, while others prefer for it not to be.  Just attach the file(s) and don't worry about this so much.
    Also, I do have to disagree with Kappy on one point...  I would not say that you "should" compress files and attach the compressed archive file.  That will force all mail clients not to display the attachment inline, but not everyone will want that (you'd be forcing your tastes on all recipients of your e-mail), and some people have difficulty figuring out how to open and view the contents of compressed files.  It's an extra step for you and an extra step for the recipient, and is not needed for most popular file types.  (Of course, we could advise you more specifically if we knew what file types you're dealing with.)

  • HT4539 Apps isn't available Automatic Downloads on my iPads anymore. This is very frustrating because I work in a school library and have 30 iPads connected to a Macbook, and since this spring I've had to drag the new apps I've downloaded to each iPad.

    I work in a school library and manage a cart of 30 iPads with 1 Macbook. Apps is not showing up under Automatic Downloads anymore, so I can't turn it on. Therefore, when I download apps requested by teachers, I have to drag the apps one by one to each of the 30 iPads. This is taking a lot of time that I don't have to spare. Is there a fix for this? Thank you.

    Yes, Nathan. I have Automatic Download options for Music, Books, and Updates, but not for Apps. I turned on the Updates, but it didn't help. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  • TS3276 I have a message that is frozen open and I can't close it

    I get a message that says :  Cannot send message using the server att.net
    The server “smtp.mail.yahoo.com” did not recognize the following recipients: (and then it lists all the recepients).

    Thanks

    Hi Eric,
    As I wrote in my original message, I already tried to Force Quit, but as soon as I reopen my Apple Mail, the window with this message pops back open again w/no way to get rid of it:(

  • TS3276 we have 2 gmail accounts, one we send and receive well the other sends ok but receives on the first one not on its original account. any ideas

    as described above

    In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account.  The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
    Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

  • HT204266 If I have a play list of various artists and on this list I have two tracks from the same album how can I combine those two tracks to play as one if I am using the shuffle feature?

    An example would be Jackson Browne's "The Load Out" &" Stay".They should play one after the other but in a play
    list on shuffle setting they don't. How do I combine two songs so they play as one in a shuffled playlist

    When I import my music files to iTunes will I be creating new files for every file I import? If the answer is YES; where are those files going to be stored and how much space will they use?
    To begin with you can't manage FLAC in iTunes. The use of iTunes is at this moment limited to WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, AAC and MP3. But that's not a problem because if I understand you correctly you want to organize the MP3-files in iTunes.
    When you import music files you can let iTunes copy all files and put it in an iTunes-media-Folder. You can make the choice in preferences-->tab advanced.
    If you deselect the second blue checkbox (sorry, in Dutch) iTunes won't copy files as you import the files in your library. It will use the files from the place they are on the disk now. So you have a choice. But if you want iTunes to copy them, they will be placed in a folder called iTunesMedia. This is how it placed on your disk.
    All files will be put in one music folder well ordered by artist and albums. If you want to make a backup of all your music you just have to copy the iTunes folder to another disk. You can backup all music at once. How much space they will use depends on the bitrate of the MP3 and whether you add more tagging to it. You can have iTunes add album artwork. That means adding gif or jpg files to your library. Are you using bitrate 320 for your MP3?
    If you tell me I can give you estimates on the disk-space you will need.

  • I have mac os x 10.6.8 and I want to upgrade my operating system

    How do I upgrade my operating system.

    First, which OS do you want to upgrade to?
    Here are some requirements for the OS X versions after Snow Leopard. See if your MBP qualifies for any of these.
    OS X Lion 10.7.5
    OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5
    OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
    Mavericks is free. OS X Lion and Mountain Lion would need to be purchased and you would have to call Apple Sales (800-MY-APPLE  USA) to purchase a redemption code; then redeem it at the App Store.

  • Since I installed Mavericks I seem to have lost the comforting whooooosh that I used to hear when mail was sent.

    Since I installed Mavericks I have lost the comforting whooosh I used to get when mail is sent.  And I cant find anything in the preferences to get it back.

    This happens to me a lot.  Quiting Mail, and re-launching brings it back (looks like a bug)

  • HT1630 I have just bought my MacBook Pro 15" Retina new this week. When storing the charger I wrapped it as described on the support page, but now I've noticed that in some places in the power cord (charger to MacBook) there are small lumps.

    It looks like the strains are unwrapping in its isolating sleeve. By twisting the cord you can get the lump out, but when you then want to store it and wrap it around the charger the lumps come back because the cable is twisted in an other direction.

    IMHO the worst way to store, transport, any Mac notebook charger is to wrap the cord around the transformer block as described on the Apple website and documentation. This only leads to the cord braking and as you have noticed some lumps.
    I wrap the cord around my hand loosely in big loops never putting any strain on either end of it. I also let the cord hang loose before I start wrapping it around my hand. This allows the cord to twist naturally as I wrap. When un-wrapping I also hold it up to let all the twists work there way out. This has worked for me with all the AC adapters for Mac computers I've owned.
