TS3276 this morning opening "Mail", both Inbox & Sent were entirely empty. All other mailboxes were OK.

forgot to add: this applied to my MacBook whereas my iPhone shows those "missing items"

Now for the latest in Mail's unpredictable behavior: after weeks of not accessing my gmail POP account, it suddenly started getting mail. It has gotten current mail for the last two weeks, but there is a large unfilled gap that it is not addressing--actually, there are two, but never mind that! Don't any of you Mac geniuses out there have a clue what this is all about? It's just too freaky.
Incidentally, when I set up Thunderbird to get mail, it also is not quite right: it doesn't take all the mail off the server, only selected messages. The others don't go into the junk folder or anywhere else, as far as I can tell.

My screen, this morning opened but with all the icones in "flou"allover the screen can you help me ?

My screen, this morning opened with a lot of icones all over in floues and multiplied by 10 or more, what is happening could you help me please ?
Mon ordinateur , un Imac G5 processeur 10.4.11, s'est ouvert ce matin avec un écran rempli d'icones en flou, si je clique sur une application, elle s'ouvre mais tout est illisible, pouvez-vous m'aider, merci ?

First of all, have you shut down your computer and tried to reset the PRAM.? Then try booting from your install disc and run
Disk Utility
   1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
   2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
      Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
   3. Click the First Aid tab.
   4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
   5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
   6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
Please post back and let us know jow it went...

Hi Charlotte,
You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please.

Can't open email in Inbox only, can read all other mailboxes?

I am new to Mac products and may have deleted something I wasn't supposed to. My inbox indicates that I have 6 messages but I can't see them to open them. All other mailboxes are fine.

Sorry...false alarm! I don't know what I did but I'm now able to open my email.

I accidentally deleted my 1&1 account in mail and inbox / sent items lost

Can anyone help please? I have transferred my domain name from 1&1 to godaddy today and the domain transfer has been successful but in the process of trying to set up my Mail account I inadvertently deleted the old 1&1 account from Mail preferences. I didn't think that this would be a problem as all of the emails must be stored on my hard drive once they had been delivered to Mail, but when the 1&1 account had been deleted I lost all emails from my inbox, sent items and deleted items. The personal folders that I have created to store emails in are all still there, but I am very worried that I have lost all of my sent items and all of the items in my inbox that were awaiting replies.
I have looked on here and people refer to going to Library and then Mail folder, but I don't have a mail folder. I do have Time Machine so any recommendations where I can back up on would be appreciated.
1&1 have said that I can transfer my MX records back to them to restore my mail and then transfer them back to godaddy, but I have been waiting for 12 hours from the original transfer to take place and it still hasn't happened and I can't afford another day without being able to send or receive any emails.
I would also like to know how to ensure that i have a back up of my existing mail to make sure that i don't loose any more.
Any advice greatly appreciated. :-)

Was this a POP account, and where is your backup?
From now on use Time Machine to backup your Mac, for Mail you can also (not instead of) export any or all mailboxes to the desktop by rightclicking on the mailbox and choosing Export.

I'm using ipod touch for a year now. I was using this morning and suddenly the ipod doesn't work at all maybe it got wet from my bag but there wasn't wet stuff in there. and itunes said iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. please help me

I'm using iPod touch for a year now. It was doing fine this morning but in the afternoon suddenly when I took it out of my bag, the screen was just black and it wouldn't turn on and stuff. So I thought it didn't have battery so I charged it didn't work. I plugged to the computer and it said iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before in can be used with iTunes.
Maybe my bag was little wet today but i don't think that is why.. since it wasn't that bed.. just some paper was wet and stuff..
What should I do..? Please help me.

I can no longer get Mafia War game to open I get a white page only ..all other games still open on Firefox..please help

I use Mozilla Firefox on my computer..I play Mafia War games and several more..now when I try to open MW I get a white page, all other games still open and work fine...I do not know how to fix this, can you help..thanks

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan

After opening HFM forms in excel the colour in all other file get changed

Hi,
Once we open (import) HFM web form in excel via smartview and refresh it, color in all other excel files (normal excel file) change to black and we have to close all the excel file to to get rid of this issue. Its happening onlywith few users. Is there any setting in excel or in hyperion smartview to fix this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Aj

I also think its not SV related issue and it is purely excel issue. I checked all the options in excel but could not find what causes such changes. Only some users are facing such problem and all the excel option setting are identical in two computer one with problem and other without any such problem.

Aj

HELP! my emails disappeared after I modified the pop incoming and outgoing server settings in my apple mail email account. I have checked all my mailboxes--gone. How could they have disappeared? I am talking about 200 plus business emails

I have checked all my mailboxes--gone. How could they have disappeared? I am talking about 200 plus business emails. I am using Lion X.0

Thomas,
"Note that you were warned that this would happen and approved it. When you delete an e-mail account in Mail, you are shown a message like the following:"
You didn't read my problem - I said I deleted a POP email account. I always read the messages that pop up and in Mail when you delete a POP account - IT DOESN'T TELL YOU NUTHIN! It just deletes it - which *** for me. Fortunately, I had an iPhone and on that device I had about a 1000 messages that I could recover but on all my POP accounts I download them from the server onto my Mac so they were only on Mail (the really old ones that I wanted to keep.) I had to move them into another directory one by one basically because when I would move 50 some of them would move and some wouldn't and I never did figure out that problem. Basically the ones that would not move are the ones that were associated with my domain changes with GoDaddy, and there were a lot of those. Have no idea as to why only those were resistant to moving but I can get all that data from GoDaddy anyway.
This thread is now moot seeing as how I've recovered everything I can and am going to just move on - and back up more often. ;-)
Apple and Mail need to rewrite that program to include a WARNING MESSAGE when deleting an Account in Mail that says ALL YOUR MESSAGES ARE GOING TO DISAPPEAR NEVER TO RETURN IF YOU DELETE THIS ACCOUNT, SO YOU DANG WELL BETTER HAVE A BACK UP IF YOU WANT TO KEEP ANYTHING BEFORE PRESSING THAT MINUS SYMBOL! ;-)

Ebay is only taking up half of screen. This has happened since my cat jumped on the keyboard.All other pages are fine.

My cat jumped on the keyboard while I was on ebay. Now, when I open ebay, it is very small and only using half of my computer screen. It is centered with whitespace on both sides. All other websites are fine.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.

How do I delete a message I forwarded, which seems "stuck" in my outbox? (Never "sent") It's impeding all other downloads.

I attempted to forward an e-mail on March 8, but it never actually went through. It seems 'stuck' in my Outbox, and I can't see any way to delete it. In the meantime, it's impeding any and all other items I attempt to download. Help!!
Thanks,

I ended up shutting down my system, and when I started it back up, I was able to drag the photo to the trash and delete it (I did get a message warning that my deleting the photo might negatively affect the application that was "using" it, but I deleted it anyway...it worked...and I'm hoping I didn't adversely affect another application!).
Thanks so much for your help!

Why is my ipad2 constantly disconnecting from wifi? We have had the ipad for 1 year with NO problems; then just this week (9-2) it has been disconnecting itself. All other Mac products in the house (macpro, macpro air, iphones) all work fine... HELP!

Can anyone from APPLE help us? Just recently the ipad 2 has been disconnecting itself. WE have had NO issues for 1 year. All other Apple products in the house are running fine from same router/wifi. Did Apple suddenly do something to ipad that is causing this disruption??

You may think you are connected to the internet, but maybe not. Click on Safari and see if it connects.

iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

HT204053 I have just bought an ipad. I have already got an ipod My wife has got an iphone. We use the same itunes account, I was perturbed to find when I turned on my ipad this morning a text someone had sent my wife was showing. How can I turn this faci

I have just bought an iPad. I have already got an iPod and my wife has an iPhone 3. We use the same iTunes account. I am receiving text messages which people are sending to my wife's phone on my iPad. Could you please advise how I can stop that happening. Thank you.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
You need to create a new account for either yourself or your wife, you can choose whether to use this account for iCloud and therefore keep your personal data such as the contacts etc separate, you can continue to use the account you are both using for iTunes so that you may share the content you have already purchased, but each use your own account for iMessage which will stop you receiving each other's messages.

Sometimes when I open mail, my inbox isn't populated...

...but clicking on 'Sent', then back to 'inbox' will then display the contents of my inbox correctly.
Is this happening to anyone else?

It's just one POP3 account - hotmail plus.
It appears to populate now, so it could be happening only the first time after booting. Thanks for that, though!

Back up all data, then delete the account. Add it back in the Mail, Contacts & Calendars preference pane.
