"Use only this server"

In Mail > Preferences > Accounts what does it mean to check or uncheck the "Use only this server" check box?

Hi there
If you have more than one Mail account on more then one server, you can select the server from which you want to sent the mail. If you select "Use only this server" you can't select the smtp server on sending. thats all

Cannot set Use only this server for iCloud mail

Each new versions of OS X add more bells and whistles and brings us closer to the fun that made me move away from Windows, 9 years ago!
So this update appears to have problems saving my setting and mail is really having problems.
I have 7 accounts and each has thier own SMTP out going mail server which I set in the Edit SMTP Server List.
For some reason my iCloud account has lost this setting and now when I try to set it Mail tells me it cannot save the setting while the Incomming mail server is empty.
But iCloud sets it's own incomming server! I cannot change the setting!
I'm very disapointed with the way the quality of OS X has dropped with each new release. I'll soon be back sitting up all night trying to keep the Mac working just like I did in the bad old days with Windows, only with less money in my pocket!

How do I stop my mail from send out my e-mails with the mobile me acct instead of my default provider? I have checked the "use only this server" in my provider account.

There is no such option/setting on an iPhone to determine this. Whether you can view the attachment has more to do with your connection, WiFi or cellular, and the size of the attachment than anything else. There will be a paperclip indicating the message includes an attachment regardless if downloaded with the message or not. When connected to the cellular network, if an attachment is below a designated size the attachment will be downloaded automatically. If over a certain size, you must select the attached file icon in the body of the message to download the attachment. The size limit varies by carrier/provider.

How many video chats can you use with this server?

I am looking to develop a multi-video chat app that's easy to
build. Can I use Stratus with this? Or do I need to use FMS.

none of the video streams will pass through Stratus. Stratus
only enables end-to-end streams. You are limited only by the amount
of bandwidth the client ends have as far as how many different
streams can be flowing.
if you need to relay streams through a server (the to-many
case, or the end-to-end is blocked by firewalls or certain NAT
configurations cases), you'll need to use FMS.

Mac OS X Server 4.1, Xcode 6.3.1 "This version of Xcode cannot be used with this server"

I'm utterly confused.
The documentation for Mac OS X Server (from https://help.apple.com/serverapp/mac/4.0/#/apdA154F061-7CE4-4A58-843D-DC2CE3A1AE 8C ) shows that Xcode 6 or later (my emphasis). I have installed Mac OS X 10.10.3, Mac OS X Server 4.1, Xcode 6.3.1. I have no apps in the App Store's "Update" tab that need to be updated (just now double-checked). I clicked to the Xcode tab under "Services" in OS X Server, clicked the "Choose Xcode…" button, selected the version of Xcode from the Applications folder on the root HDD, and got the error message "This version of Xcode cannot be used with OS X Server."
So .... now what?

Well, for some reason it just started working. I was busy trying to fix another issue when I noticed that the Xcode service was running. I would still like to know what happened in case I have a similar problem with the next OS/Server upgrade, but for now it's at least running.

Mail does not use correct outgoing server

Problem
Mail in Mavericks (and also IOS6 snf 7) does not use the outgoing smtp server associated with the account being used. This results in either a failure to send or mail being put into the wrong "Sent" folder.
Background
I have most of my non-icloud mail pulled down to a home server from which my laptops and ios devices access various accounts using imap. The local home server also provides smtp and relays all mail to my ISP. Recently I have been switching from an old home server (Mac Mini) to a new one (Raspberry pi running the debian Raspbian version with fetchmail, Dovecot and postfix setup).
While making the changeover I had access to both the old server and the new server enabled on my laptop. Naturally the majority of the settings (Name, email address etc) were the same although the name and address of the server to be used for both incoming and outgoing mail were different. This seemed tp work fine for incoming. However when I tested outgoing mail the copy that should appear in the "sentt" box went missing. This usually indicates some mistake in the setting of the sent mail folder on the accounts but this all checked out.
I eventually found the missing outgoing mail intended to go through the new server in the sent box on the old server. Further trials showed that no matter what I did the outgoing would always default to the old (and therefore first set up) outgoing server.
Deleting the old account and the old outgoing server of course should cure the problem and will eventually be the solution for me when I kill the old server. But i wanted to get to the bottom of the problem in case it reappeared in other contexts. Checking the "use only this server" box produced failure to send rather than the correct result.
Trialing various alterntaive settings showed that the problem occurs when there are two outgoing servers with the email address in the settings and the user name on the outgoing server name being the same. I had assumed that changing the description field would distinguish between the various settings; however this did not work. Changing the Name Field did work eg by putting (O) after my name.
It appears therefore that mail selects the outgoing server on the basis of email address (with the full name included) and user name (trrespective of the actual server or the Description that shows in the smtp server listing. In some ways this is logical but it produces problems in the context I have described and would also be a difficulty if you wanted to use an alternative server when in a different location.
I have trawled support and elsewhere for any thing similar. Lots of mail problems (don't get me started on the way icloud loses outgoing each time you edit the list!) but I have not found any posts on precisiely this point.
IOS devices seem to have similar problems, but a quick attempt at a similar solution does not work, and I cannot be bothered to test the options. I will simply clean them out and put in the new accounts.
Advice
Grateful for any comments or advice from people who have encountered similar problems and whether my diagnosis if correct. Have I missed any obvious corrections that would clear this up. I do not know whether this is a Mavericks issue or also appears in earlier OSX versions.
CPE

Peter,
Where ever the Sent and Trash folders show in the Sidebar, highlight first one, and then the other, followed by clicking on Mailbox in the Menubar, and choosing Use This Mailbox For, and choose the function.
Keep us posted on your progress.

How to auto-fill a book using only one master page

I'm designing a rather simple photo book in Aperture. I have a master page setup with six 2x3 image boxes per page. Each image box has a metadata field for caption and for date/time. I want to select a large number of images and auto-fill the book using only this master page. As you might guess, its just going to be a presentation of a large number of photographs, scrapbook style, with the caption and time of each image. Nothing fancy, intentionally.
Problem is when I tell Aperture to auto-fill the images, if it needs a new page it randomly grabs a master page layout. I want all pages to use only this specific master page.
Can this be done? Adding my own pages and dragging and dropping images by hand will be too cumbersome when a book might have 300+ images in it.

Problem is when I tell Aperture to auto-fill the images, if it needs a new page it randomly grabs a master page layout. I want all pages to use only this specific master page.
Create a new, empty version of your master page and duplicate it as often as you want using the key combination ⌘D. Delete all pages with a layout that you not want.
When you have enaough empty pages use auto-fill. It will fill the empty pages you just created.
For example - plenty of pages using the same master layout, auto-filled:

Are you a 100% sure??? Because I'm definitely given the option to do this and there are even downloads to this effect, i.e. iPhone 3G ios 6.0. I am even given this option when I plug my iPhone into iTunes. The only problem I'm having is what I have mentioned above.

No, it's done on the computer, it's just done on the web and not through iTunes. I guess you could do it on the iPhone, but it would be easier to do on the computer.
Just go to the site linked above, then click on the big blue button and fill out the neccessary information.

Error installing Office 2013 on Server 2012 R2 RDS - Error 25004: the product key you entered cannot be used on this machine

Hi there,
I really hope someone can help me as I am tearing my hair out trying to get this resolved!
I am working on a Server 2012 R2 server with RDS running. Before it was turned into a RDS server it had a copy of Office 2010 running as a trial to see would it work for the accounting package that is running for users via Remote Desktop. Trial worked ok
so it was converted into a RDS server. Now, as its a RDS it needs to run Office under a volume licence, which I have. However when trying to install I get the message: "Error 25004: the product key you entered cannot be used on this machine. this is most
likely due to previous Office 2013 trials being installed on the system."
In summary I have tried everything I can think of and find to remove all traces of the old Office from the machine but still this message persists. I have run the Fix It For Me uninstall from MS and it cannot find any Office installed. i have manually searched
through all of the Windows directories including Program Files and AppData and removed all traces of Office from there, I have searched the registry and removed all I can find from there.
Where or what file does the installer look at to see that a previous version was installed?
I cannot scrub this machine which I would have done long ago because there is another SQL Server based application running on it.
Really really appreciate anyone that can help me on this,
Thanks

Hi,
I have definitely heard your frustration, and I’ll try my best to help you.
Since Office 2010 installed on it before, you need to remove Office 2010 completely.
