Two email accounts sync'd to my iMac. One has suddenly stopped receiving incoming mail.

Hi,
I have an iMac on OX Yosemite 10.10.2. (which I installed a couple of months ago no issues). I have two email accounts - Gmail and AOL. Both are installed and sync'd with the Mail application.  However, for the past week, the inbox hasn't received any incoming emails from AOL, only Gmail. The account is shown as still there. I can still see the sent, trash, drafts, old received emails etc, just no inbox with new messages.  I have checked the account settings and done the connection doctor troubleshooter - it says its all fine. However, when I click Mailbox and Get New Mail, the Gmail is black and the AOL is grey so I can't select it.
I have an iPhone which also has both accounts sync'd to it. No issues with that. I'm getting all emails as I should on the phone.
Can anyone give me a suggestion to get it back?

OK I've just tried that.
The inbox is there at the top of the left hand column, and it is showing all the inbox messages that I've not received on the iMac for the past two weeks, but that I did get through on my phone.  So that's more than I had before.
However, new incoming mail that has been sent since deleting and re adding the account is not appearing. I've just sent a test email from the Gmail account to the AOL account and I can still see it sat in my outbox. Likewise, I know from my phone that I have been sent other emails since doing this, which have not appeared on the Mac.
I've ran connectivity doctor again and it still says that all connections are fine.
Any more ideas Eric?

  • My iPad has suddenly stopped receiving emails. I have tried every trick and it's still not working.

    My iPad has suddenly stopped receiving emails from the mail app.
    I've been looking through the forum for hours and tried every variation of deleting the account, re-adding it, rebooting my iPad etc. I've tried everything! And I still can't receive emails.
    My drafts, sent emails and junk emails are all there but my inbox is empty and it's refusing to download the messages.
    When I refresh it, "downloading 1 of 250" pops up for a second and then disappears and it just says it's updated yet nothing is there.
    Please can someone help. This is incredibly annoying!!!
    My mail provider is Yahoo and my wifi is working fine.

  • TS3276 Sound works fine on all programs, but has suddenly stopped on Apple Mail.  No "submarine" sound when I send or receive email.  I checked the settings in "Preferences" in Apple Mail and it is set to "submarine" as the sound.  Any help?

    deleted previously imported key chain originated from the previous system (why doesn't apple provide a migration for my key chain?). after the deletion mail can receive and send again and dreamweaver starts without hanging.

  • I have several email account setup on iphone.  for one of them can receive from/to emails from phone, but emails sent from computer not received on phone.  phone shows receiving but does not come thru

    I have iphone 4s with several email accounts set up.  For one of these accounts, and only one, test emails sent from phone come thru fine.  But computer generated mail doesn't come to phone.  For test messages phone shows "receiving" but nothing comes to inbox.  External sent mail does not  come to phone inbox, but does to outlook on computer.  Have checked settings and these seem correct.  What's up?  Four other accounts work fine.

    If you can send e-mail when on WiFi from home, but not when on 3G, that indicates your email provider is blocking e-mail being sent from outside their network. This is done to control Spam. ISPs who do this will usually have a separate SMTP server that should be used when using a mobile device. Check with them again.

  • Return key on iMac Keyboard Has Suddenly Stopped Working

    I'm using an iMac purchased in April 2007 and it is using the older white Apple keyboard (model A1048).
    All of a sudden, after a shutdown and a startup, the Return key has stopped working (the Enter key on the keypad still works).
    Nothing was spilled on it and no one has hit it too hard. I popped off the key to check if there was anything that could explain why it wasn't working. No dirt and the key depresses properly.
    I also took the keyboard over to a Dell PC running WinXP and tested it there as well. Every key worked except for the Return key.
    So, my question is, is there some serious hardware flaw that basically means that I need to get a new keyboard or is there some other explanation and method for correcting the issue?

    Having the same issue, would love to know if you were able to resolve it. I'm also not able to use Tab, Return, and F12 for some reason.

  • I had two email accounts on mobile me.  Only on of the accounts now shows as an iCloud account. What do I need to do?

    I had two email accounts on mobile me.  Only one of the accounts now shows as an iCloud account. What do I need to do?

    What do you mean by 'I had two email accounts on mobile me'?
    Did you have two separate individual MobileMe accounts? Each needs to be migrated separately; one can be signed into in System Preferences>iCloud and the other in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars.
    Did you have a Family Pack with subaccount(s), or 'email only' accounts attached to a main account? Again, each sub-account/email-only account needs to be migrated separately, will become a full separate iCloud account and they can be signed into as above.
    Did you have email aliases? These should be transferred along with the account. They are not separate accounts, and do not appear as such in Mail; messages to them appear in the iCloud inbox alongside messages to the main address.

  • Can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes and no.
    There is no issues at all if you use two user accounts on the mac, each can sync with one of the accounts.
    If you are using a single user account, you can add the second account as a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts and calendars and you can then sync mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders from the second account, but not documents and data, back to my mac or photostream.

  • Share two email accounts on icloud

         I now have two iphone's on my account and two separate two email accounts on Itunes. I am having trouble sharing or syncing icloud with the two email accounts. Is there specific settings in the setup to solve this problem or what is the best procedure?

    If you want to sync data such as calendars, contacts, etc. between the two phones, they will need to be signed into the same iCloud account.  If you want to consolidate the data to one account, on the phone that is signed into the account you will be leaving go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out, and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign into the other account and choose Merge to merge the data from the old account with the data in the new account.
    If, on the other hand, you are only talking about wanting to be able to access two iCloud email accounts on your phones, you can add the other email account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, signing in with the account ID and turning Mail on.  Both email accounts will then appear in the Mail app.

  • In two email accounts, the msgs that are downloadednjust disappear when the ipad is turned off.  They are not in the trash file, but just gone.

    If someone has an answer...
    Thannks in advance

    I have an itouch that has the same two email accounts as I trying to use on the ipad.  Same accounts are set up on a desktop computer (almost never sync either one with it) and an android smartphone.  The itouch keeps msgs on it in the inbox (both accounts) and in the trash folders until I delete them...........same with the android phone.
    If I download msgs to either account to the desktop where it is set up to remove them from the ISP server, then I understand they won't come to any of the other devices, but the android phone and the itouch will have them in their in boxes (they come in through the wireless router here at the house.
    The problem I'm having is that the ipad is set uo just like the itouch, but it sure acts differently with regard to email..  This morning, it had about 40 msgs on one account that I use for aviation and vietnam list groups and then checking it about two hours later, all of them were gone,,,,,,,just gone and all the folders were empty.  I had not used the desktop computer during that time.
    I've deleted both email accounts and started over from scratch a couple of times and that hasn't fixed the problem.............

  • HT1420 I have two email accounts associated with one iTunes account

    I have two email accounts associated with one iTunes account with two passwords,  I guess it happened when i changed my internet service provider. 

    Could be, but i do have an old email account, whis is not used, changed carrriers.  I have noticed that some songs have a cloud with a line through it.  I try to play it and a dialog box from Itunes pops up: "THIS COMPUTER IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PLAY "THE THINGS WE DO FOR LOVE(SOUND TRACK VERSION, would you like to authorize it?  THe apple ID haxe my old  email address " and an empty block asking for my password.  Well all i know is when you start trying to authorze with an old ID or something of that nature, the account is block and you need to do a new setup again.  And who knows what other problems that will cause,
    I just want the songs (i think there are several songs) assosiated with this old account to move to my new account.
    Any ideas?

  • If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account, how can I setup individual notifications for each account. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work to be different than perso

    If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account on my iPhone 4s, How can I setup individual notifications for each account? Fore example, if I get a work email, I want to hear a DING, DING....If I get a personal email, I want to hear a BEEP, BEEP. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work incoming email notification to be different than personal incoming notification. The only semi-workaround I've seen is just disable any notification for the Hotmail account, so only work emails would notify. But then I don't know when I get a personal email. Even the lowely Blackberry Torch 9800 has this feature..not iPhone 4s??
    Thanks

  • I have two email accounts on my MacBook Pro and iPhone.  My iPhone continues to send messages from either account that I choose.  My MacBook says that one of my email account outgoing mail servers is Offline?  How can I get that working again?

    I have two email accounts on my MacBook Pro and iPhone that I have been using for a few years.  My phone works perfectly for both accounts.  Now one of my email accounts on the MacBook says the outgoing server is Offline?  How can I fix that so that both accounts send and receive email.  I have tried various things in settings but nothing seems to work.
