Using gmail - multiple copies of mail being written are forwarded to the trash -did not have this issue with 10.6.8 -

I have two Imacs - the master one is plugged in directly into the modem, it runs with 10.6.8 and works fine (this computer is not connected to Icloud)- the other  is connected to a router which is connected to the master unit and the modem. that unit was upgraded to 10.9.4 and it is connected to Icloud - both Imacs use gmail accounts for e-mail.
The "slave" unit running on 10.9.4 creates multiple copies of mail being written and sends those copies to the trash file. We have had up to fifty copies of one e-mail in the trash. That computer worked fine under OSX10.6.8 - We have visited the apple store genius bar with this Imac, and consulted the apple phone support service to no avail.
while it does take a long time to transmit the e-mails, addressees get only one copy. Your help will be appreciated.

9/16/14 update - another call to apple phone support revealed that this is a known issue that has no solution at this time.

  • There is a problem with the mail updating automatically in the toolbar at the top of the page ! my seeting s are correct. i did not have this problem with early versions!! not good,

    firefox wont update the mailbox to inform you you have new mail.
    preivious version was ok.
    all settings are correct .
    tried starting new and still the same

    Sorry, that "mail" thing isn't a standard part of Firefox. Seek support from the developer of the add-on you have installed that added that feature to Firefox. Support contact information should be on the download page for that extension.

  • Using windows 7 and FF4, randomly when I open FF all of my username and password info for my websites has been removed and i have to re enter my login info. I did not have this problem with 3.6.

    None of my security settings are being changed and this is not being caused by any anti spyware program. if I go back to 3.6 i do not have the problem. I have reinstalled FF4 and now, 4.0.1, thinking it might be corrected but still the problem persists and I get tired of having to reenter login information for 20 or more websites every couple of days.

    I also had terrible issues with 2 Wire Gateway and my mid-2010 MacBook Pro.  We changed to WPA2 and that seems to have fixed the problem.  The AT&T tech support person, Phillipines, was extremely helpful.  She went through network settings with me.  One interesting step was going into my DNS tab (Network Preferences and then Advanced Button) and replacing my entries with these:
    68.94.156.1
    68.94.157.1
    It's been several days and I've only seen a few random packet drops.  Still charging along at full signal strength.

  • I cannot use Microsoft Hotmail with Firefox 3.6.24 and Windows 7. I click on an email but nothing happens. I did not have this problem with Windows Vista. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.

    The Windows 7 is on a new Dell Inspiron desktop. The Windows Vista is on a Dell Studio laptop that I have had for a while. The Hotmail also works fine on the new computer when I use IE9.

  • Using Firefox 4.0.1, I am unable to "Compose", "Reply" or "Forward" messages in Yahoo Mail. I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer.

    Clicking on "Compose", "Reply" or "Forward" in Yahoo Mail does not do anything. I troubleshot the problem with Yahoo directly and they feel that the issue is with Mozilla Firefox. I do not have this issue when using Internet Explorer. Other buttons in Yahoo Mail, such as "Delete" and "Move" do work.

    I had the same problem and discovered it went away when I disabled the AVG Do Not Track extension on firefox.

  • I am using Thunderbird 24.4.0 and it is very slow in loading emails and deleting emails. Did not have this problem till recently. Running Windows 7

    With in the last 3 days my emails have been very slow to open and it takes about 20 secs. to delete an email.
    At times I see the message that Thunderbird is not responding. I am using Windows 7 and Bitdefender AV.
    I closed the firewall on the AV and this did not change anything. Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Disable Bitdefender's option to scan mail folders and see if the performance improves.

  • Unable to open and or click onto any upper portion of my screen while using firefox, even after i updated it. but under explorer...i do not have this concern/problem.

    it happens EVERYTIME i try to use firefox, tried rebooting, tried to delete java interely and still same thing. i just added java again and still same results, but only under firefox. i am stationed in the middle east/deployed so finding a computer store is out, and only certain military websites are preferred under your firefox, so it is time-sensitive as well.

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause this issue. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • Used the add on helper for clipboard and it did not resolve my issue with the problem that I cannot use clipboard with emails.

    Attempt to compose an email using my company email program webmail.windstreamhosting.com. I cannot in the email cut, paste, or copy.
    When I attempt to use an option to cut, paste, or copy I receive an error message. "Copy/Cut/Paste is not available in Mozilla and Firefox. Do you want more information about this issue?"
    I am then redirected to the website:

    I followed the suggestions and it did not correct the problem.

  • After update, keyboard and trackpad does not work on MBA but wireless mouse works. I don't use a wireless keyboard. Stuck at login because need to enter pw. Anyone have this issue? Please help!

    My Macbook Air (13", mid 2011) right after I did the Maverick OS update. My keyboard on Macbook Air is not working and it says "There isn't a keyboard connected" (Bluetooth Keyboard Setup). I do not use a wireless keyboard. Apparently my bluetooth works because my wireless mouse works. I am currently stuck at my login screen not being able to get in because I can't even enter my password. I am, however, able to login as guests and get to the Keyboard viewer to type things with my wireless mouse. I really need my keyboard to work to use for my job. I need help please!

    I forgot to mention that my power button did work but everything else, keyboard and trackpad, didn't! Anyway, I shutdown my laptop, slept, and turned it back (in hopes that it might work instead of restarting it like before). Now my keyboard and trackpad works! Thank goodness! I was about to go to the Apple store upset too! 

  • Whenever I use Firefox, I get dozens and dozens of additional junk emails. I don't have this problem with IE8. Do I need to make a setting change to Firefox?

    I mainly use IE8 so that I don't have the junk mail problem. I use yahoo mail.

  • Using 3.6.12, when I enter a bid on eBay, FF immediately signs off eBay. Never had that problem with earlier versions. I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer.

    Using FF 3.6.12, I can log onto eBay, view my account, rate a purchase or win, and search for items. In other words, pretty much do anything normally on eBay.
    But if I try to enter a bid on an item, the program exits eBay.com and I get the "You've Signed Off. See You Again Soon!" screen. This happens every time I try to enter or re-enter a bid.
    I've been using Firefox for a few years to bid on eBay without any problems. This started as soon as I upgraded to 3.6.12 a month or so ago. Any suggestions?
    I've been forced to use Internet Explorer just to get on eBay and bid now. Not nearly as fast and elegant as Firefox. Help!

    To re-install Lightroom 5.4, there's no need to go back to the original full version and systematically re-install every upgrade you've ever purchased in order to re-install the latest version. All you need to do is re-install your most recent version (in this case 5.4), enter your Lightroom 5 serial number then enter your Lightroom 4 serial number when prompted. That's it.
    How did you first license the Lightroom 5 upgrade on your computer? Since it's not a subscription version, you must have received a version 5 serial number somewhere in the purchasing process. Without a record of that, Adobe Customer Care may struggle with your case.
    If you're running Windows, you can try running the free Belarc Advisor which often successfully retrieves your full serial number from inside your computer.

    When filling out forms or needing to give my g-mail address on Firefox, my address is always rejected. It comes up as an non valid address. I then have to switch to Safari to complete all forms. :(

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • I recently updated to Photos. Now, when I am using my photo processing software, such as Flare or FX Photo Studio, I do not have the usability as I did before.

    For example, I cannot drag and drop photos from Photos to the processing program. Nor can I save them directly from the processing program to Photos, it is not an option. I have to save it as a jpeg in finder, then open "other" and select Photos. Is this a Photos issue or a software issue? I did not have these issues when using iPhoto. I have Yosemite 10.10.3, and all photo processing software is the latest version.
    Additionally, Photos is not even a topic to choose from in this forum yet, they still have only iPhotos listed under the "Life" category. Is Apple planning increasing its Photos support as iPhoto is phased out?

    It is caused by the system upgrade to Yosemite. The new Photos.app has been designed using the newer frameworks in Yosemite, and the older applications need updates to be fully compatible with the way  newer applications are sharing content in Yosemite.
    Additionally, Photos is not even a topic to choose from in this forum yet, they still have only iPhotos listed under the "Life" category. Is Apple planning increasing its Photos support as iPhoto is phased out?
    Photos is not an iLife application, is is Part of MacOS X 10.10.3 and the forum is listed under system software.
